Corrugated roof sheet and photovoltaic assembly comprising the same
A corrugated roof sheet has a bottom, a first-side roof sheet edge portion, a second-side roof sheet edge portion, a retaining cap and a protruding portion. The first-side roof sheet edge portion has a height H 1 from the bottom. The retaining cap covers the first-side roof sheet edge portion and has a lower fringe. The lower fringe has a height h 2 from the bottom. The protruding portion is between the first-side roof sheet edge portion and the second-side roof sheet edge portion and has a height h 3 from the bottom. The height h 2 is greater than the height h 3.
1. A corrugated roof sheet comprising:
a bottom;
a first-side roof sheet edge portion having a height H 1 from the bottom;
a second-side roof sheet edge portion;
a first-side fitting portion and second-side fitting portion both disposed between the first-side roof sheet edge portion and the second-side roof sheet edge portion, the first-side fitting portion having a first standing portion extending from the bottom and a first lateral engaging portion extending from the first standing portion toward the second-side roof sheet edge portion, the first lateral engaging portion having a height h 2 from the bottom; and
a protruding portion disposed between the first-side fitting portion and the second-side fitting portion and having a height h 3 from the bottom,
wherein the height h 2 is greater than the height h 3 .
2. The corrugated roof sheet according to claim 1 , further comprising an adjacent corrugated roof sheet, wherein the first-side roof sheet edge portion engages with a second-side roof sheet edge portion of the adjacent corrugated roof sheet closely.
3. The corrugated roof sheet according to claim 1 , wherein there is a vertical fitting space for accommodating a photovoltaic module between the first lateral engaging portion and the protruding portion.
4. The corrugated roof sheet according to claim 3 , wherein the photovoltaic module comprises an electronic box having a thickness h 4 and the thickness h 4 is less than the height h 3 .
5. The corrugated roof sheet according to claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of auxiliary stoppers disposed on the protruding portion at predetermined locations of the corrugated roof sheet.
6. The corrugated roof sheet according to claim 1 , wherein each of the first-side fitting portion and the second-side fitting portion extends along a length direction of the corrugated roof sheet and has a fixed width.
7. The corrugated roof sheet according to claim 1 , wherein each of the first-side fitting portion and the second-side fitting portion has multiple sub-portions disposed periodically along a length direction of the corrugated roof sheet.
8. The corrugated roof sheet according to claim 1 , wherein corrugated roof sheet is formed in one structure.
9. A photovoltaic assembly comprising:
a corrugated roof sheet comprising:
a bottom;
a first-side roof sheet edge portion and a second-side roof sheet edge portion, the first-side roof sheet edge portion configured to engage with a second-side roof sheet edge portion of an adjacent corrugated roof sheet;
a first-side fitting portion and second-side fitting portion both disposed between the first-side roof sheet edge portion and the second-side roof sheet edge portion, each of the first-side fitting portion and the second-side fitting portion having a standing portion and a lateral engaging portion extending from the standing portion toward the other side; and
a protruding portion disposed between the first-side fitting portion and the second-side fitting portion, and
a photovoltaic module comprising at least one photovoltaic panel, the at least one photovoltaic panel is disposed in a vertical fitting space between the lateral engaging portion and the protruding portion and is in physical contact with the lateral engaging portion and the protruding portion both.
10. The photovoltaic assembly according to claim 9 , further comprising a plurality of auxiliary stoppers disposed on the protruding portion at predetermined locations of the corrugated roof sheet.
11. The photovoltaic assembly according to claim 9 , wherein each of the first-side fitting portion and the second-side fitting portion extends along a length direction of the corrugated roof sheet and has a fixed width.
