Abstract

See full text

A solar module support for covering oblique object surfaces is disclosed. The solar module support has a lower lying continuous edge area, which acts as a lower overlap area between adjacent solar module supports, which adjoins at an upper edge and a lateral edge. At least one web runs on this edge area which forms a channel for water between the web and the receiving surface. On the underside of the respectively opposite edge, a recess is provided, which has a groove corresponding to the web and which acts as the upper overlap area between adjacent solar module supports. The recess and the groove are dimensioned such that the receiving surfaces lie in the same plane and the web in each case engages in the groove in such a manner that direct contact of the overlap areas is achieved on the web and an interspace remains between the overlap areas.
