Abstract: In an attachment structure for attaching a photovoltaic cell module having flexibility to an installation surface or an attachment member, a back surface of the photovoltaic cell module is attached to the installation surface or the attachment member by being adhered by an adhesive material.

Abstract: A fastening device which reduces the work by screwing and shortens the installation time has been desired.

Abstract: An attachment member and a solar cell array are disclosed. The attachment member includes a first member; a second member on the first member; and a fixing member that fixes the first and second members. The first member includes a bottom portion; two first side walls facing each other. The second member includes a top portion; two second side walls facing to each other. The first and the second side walls are alternately arranged and face to each other. Each of the first and second side walls comprises an engagement portion. The engagement portion of one of the first side walls adjustably engages in height direction with the engagement portion of one of the second side walls. The engagement portion of the other one of the first side walls adjustably engages in height direction with the engagement portion of the other one of the second side walls.

Abstract: Provide an attachment structure suitable for attaching a thin-film photovoltaic cell module having flexibility to various installation surfaces and attachment members that are fixed to the installation surfaces that is easily and surely capable of attaching. In an attachment structure for attaching a thin-film photovoltaic cell module 10 having flexibility to an installation surface R1 or an attachment member R1, a back surface of the thin-film photovoltaic cell module 10 is attached to the installation surface R1 or the attachment member by being adhered by an adhesive material 3.

Abstract: A fastening device which adjusts the position of a frame to match the size of a solar cell module and shortens the installation time has been desired. A fastening device 100 which fastens and supports a solar cell module 20 includes a base part 111, a first module support part 113 which has a first support surface 113a able to support a light-receiving surface of the solar cell module and which is provided at the base part, a second module support part 114 which has a second support surface 114a able to support a non-light receiving surface of the solar cell module and which is provided at the base part, wherein the second support surface has a surface area larger than the first support surface and is arranged so that the second support surface is away from the first support surface at a constant interval T2, and a guide member 212 which can hold the base part in a manner able to be moved in a substantially parallel direction to the first and second support surfaces.

Abstract: A solar cell array includes solar cell modules arranged in a first-direction, and a mounting member for securing adjacent ones of the solar cell modules. The mounting member comprises a first supporting member extending in the first-direction, a second supporting member provided on the first supporting member and extending in a second-direction, a first restraint provided on one side of the second supporting member in the first-direction and configured to restrain the second supporting member from moving in the second-direction and in a height direction, and a second restraint provided on another side of the second supporting member in the first-direction and configured to restrain the second supporting member from moving in the height direction. The first restraint is movable together with the second supporting member in the first-direction on the first supporting member. The second restraint restrains the second supporting member from moving in the first-direction.

Abstract: A photovoltaic power generating system of the present invention includes a solar cell module 1, an installation platform 2 for holding a pair of ends of the solar cell module 1, and at least one supporting member 3 disposed on a side of a non-light-receiving surface 1B of the solar cell module 1, wherein the supporting member 3 is disposed at such a distance from the non-light-receiving surface 1B of the solar cell module 1 that the supporting member 3 can abut against the non-light-receiving surface 1B by deformation of the solar cell module 1. A deforming amount of the solar cell module 1 is increased in accordance with an external force applied to the solar cell module 1.
