Patent ID: 8443558

Claim:
A leg for supporting a solar panel over a surface, comprising a. a base positioned on the surface; b. a plurality of support shafts coupled to the base; c. a support platform, comprising a first side and a second side, coupled to the support shafts, wherein the first side comprises a guiding wing, wherein the guiding wing protrudes outward from the support platform at an acute angle of greater than zero relative to the surface; and d. a t-bar coupled to the support platform through the bottom of the t-bar, thereby separating the first and second sides of the support platform, wherein the t-bar comprises: (i) an angled base at the bottom of the t-bar, the bottom of the angled base being wider than the top of the angled base, (ii) a first lip at an upper portion of the t-bar facing the first side of the support platform, and (iii) a second lip at the upper portion of the t-bar facing the second side of the support platform, and the angled base, the first lip and the guiding wing cooperate to form a channel for receiving and structurally supporting a solar panel parallel to the surface.
