Patent ID: 8505863

Claim:
A system for securing a module to a roof seam, comprising: a module end clamp comprising: an upper surface component; a clamp flange extending from the upper surface component and configured to abut a first side of at least one of a solar module and a rail; and a vertical module end clamp component extending perpendicular to the upper surface component; a cam receiver comprising: a horizontal component configured to abut a second side of the at least one of a solar module or rail and the vertical module end clamp component; a first vertical component extending from a first end of the horizontal component, the vertical component further comprising a flange configured to abut the roof seam; and a second vertical component extending from a second end of the horizontal component, wherein the horizontal component and the first vertical component form a first corner, and the horizontal component and the second vertical component form a second corner; a cam comprising: a first cam component configured to abut the second corner; a threaded cam insert extending from the first cam component; and a second cam component extending from the threaded cam insert, wherein the second cam component is configured to abut the roof seam; and a bolt extending from the upper surface component of the module end clamp through the horizontal component of the cam receiver and into the threaded cam insert of the cam, wherein the bolt is configured to: engage the threaded cam portion of the cam; pull the cam towards the horizontal component until the first cam component abuts the second corner, preventing further vertical movement of the cam; and thereby cause the cam to rotate toward the cam receiver, and whereby the flange of the vertical component abuts the roof seam, the second cam component abuts the roof seam, and the roof seam abuts the first corner.
