SUPPORT ARM ASSEMBLY

摘要

A solar panel assembly is provided including an array of reflective panels and a chassis assembly for supporting the array of reflective panels. The chassis assembly includes a plurality of support arms extending radially outwardly from a central hub. A plurality of brackets interconnect the support arms with the reflective panels. A plurality of the brackets are L-shaped brackets attached to an adjacent reflective panel at one point and a plurality of the brackets are J-shaped brackets attached to an adjacent reflective panel at two points. Each bracket includes an elongated slot, through which it is attached to one of the supporting arms. The elongated slot allows the same type of bracket to be used at various points along the support arm and to attach the same type of support arm to reflective panels having different curvatures.
