Abstract: An item of equipment for producing a floating photovoltaic installation, of modular design, which includes float modules constituted, in whole or in part, of plastic casings, confining an air volume, having a neck with an opening, blocked by a stopper, structural modules, support elements, and possibly, connecting modules. The structural modules and/or the connecting modules include lugs intended to face one another for the assembly of the modules, and wherein the float modules are configured such that the assembly of the lugs facing one another is obtained, in whole or in part, by inserting the neck through the lugs, the stopper not present, then locking the assembly by the placing of the stopper blocking the opening of the neck.

Abstract: A floating support device (1) for a photovoltaic panel, includes: a structure (2) including coupling elements (3) for coupling to other floating devices in such a way as to allow a network (R) of floating devices to be formed; one or a plurality of floats (4), intended to ensure that the device does float, which are rigidly connected to the structure (2); and elements for holding at least one photovoltaic panel (P), and in which the structure is an element separate from the float(s) so as to allow forces to be transmitted between the floating devices of the network without transmitting the forces from the network to the float(s).
