Abstract: A dual function gearbox generates two separate output rotational motions from a single input rotational motion. First and second rotatable housings comprise corresponding first and second internal gears, with the internal gears having different pitch diameters. A drive shaft is disposed within the housings, extending though openings within opposite sides of housings, with an eccentric rotor disposed around the drive shaft. The eccentric rotor is in operative contact with a differential gear ring comprising first and second external gear rings having different diameters, with the first and second external gear rings engaging corresponding first and second internal gears. When rotational energy is imparted to one end of the drive shaft, the gearing arrangement imparts a rotational motion to either the first or second rotatable housing, with the housing rotating around the other end of the rotating drive shaft, which can extend outside of the dual function gearbox.

Abstract: An adjustable photovoltaic panel mounting system that allows for variations in roofs and roof elements, while still maintaining a rigid and secure assembly. The specific location for supporting feet and structural elements of the mounting system may be varied to allow for variations in roof features and different panel configurations. The mounting mechanisms are adjustable in both a North/South and a East/West direction to provide for maximum layout flexibility.
