Abstract

A device for mounting plate-like construction components, in particular solar modules and solar energy collectors on inclined surfaces. The plate-like construction components are arranged in the longitudinal direction on such surfaces, and disposed one on top of the other in the form of scales. The plate-like construction components are mounted on profiles which extend in the longitudinal direction on a substantially horizontally disposed mounting support framework such as roof battens. Each profile has at its top side two lateral support surfaces extending in its longitudinal direction, and a groove disposed between said support surfaces. The construction components rest with each of their lateral edges on one of the support surfaces of the profile, with a gap between the two lateral edges and above the groove. The profile is an inverted U-shape with each leg of the profile consisting of an inner and an outer vertical leg. The outer vertical leg limits the profile laterally. A horizontal step is formed in each of the legs at the same level, and divides the legs into a top section and a bottom section. The bottom section of a second profile is insertable in the top section of a first profile, and both sections rest positively against each other.
