  • Publication number: 20260045900
    Abstract: A solar energy system with a plurality of solar panels arranged in a row, wherein there is an innermost and an outermost solar panel, and at least one holding element oriented in the longitudinal direction of the solar energy system, on which the solar panels are held one behind the other and along which the solar panels can be moved by an engagement means from an extended operating position into a retracted protective position and vice versa, wherein adjacent solar panels are connected to one another in an articulated manner, so that a pushing or pulling force can be transmitted from one solar panel to an adjacent solar panel. The outermost and innermost solar panels are pressed against each other in the protective position by a mechanical force, forming a stable package of solar panels that enables the solar panels to protect themselves from the weather.

  • Patent number: 8536864
    Abstract: A method and a fastening system for the releasable fastening of a component to an apparatus are described. Here the fastening system comprises a detent spring arranged on the apparatus, a detent pin with a groove arranged on the component and a Bowden cable arranged on the apparatus. If the component is fastened to the apparatus, the detent spring locks in the groove in a locking position. The Bowden cable is connected to the detent spring such that when pulling on the Bowden cable, the detent spring releases from the locking position in the groove, as a result of which the fastening of the component to the apparatus is released.
