  • Publication number: 20160233820
    Abstract: A height-adjustable end holder for fastening solar modules of different heights on a profile rail, has an accommodating-bracket element, formed from a first and a second accommodating limb, wherein a mount for a solar module is formed on the first accommodating limb, having a fastening element for fastening on a profile rail, and having an adjustment element, which fastens the accommodating-bracket element in a height-adjustable manner on the fastening element so that in a mounted state it can subject the solar module to a contact pressure via the mounting. The second accommodating limb, on its side directed towards the first accommodating limb, has a first sawtooth profile, and the fastening element, on its side directed towards the second accommodating limb, has a second sawtooth profile, such that in the mounted state movement is blocked, and in a non-mounted state movement in the height direction is possible.

  • Publication number: 20160233819
    Abstract: A multipart roof hook for connecting a profile rail to a roof substructure, has a fastening part and a connecting part. The fastening part is fastenable to the roof substructure and the connecting part is fastenable to the fastening part in order to produce a mounted state. The fastening part is a right-angled angle profile having a first and a second fastener limb, the second fastener limb has a first sawtooth profile on a side facing the first fastener limb, the connecting part has a first and a second connector limb which and are connected together by an intermediate section, the first connector limb has a second sawtooth profile on a side facing the intermediate section, and the first and second sawtooth profiles are configured to prevent a relative movement of the connecting part and of the fastening part and to allow relative movement in a non-mounted state.
