Title:
HELIOSTAT DEVICE, SOLAR THERMAL COLLECTION DEVICE, AND SOLAR CONCENTRATING PHOTOVOLTAIC DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/037230
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention provides a heliostat device (1), having one mirror frame (3) that supports a reflecting mirror (2), a pair of north-south rotating shaft bars (16, 16) for rotating the mirror frame (3) in the north-south direction, an east-west rotating shaft bar (5) for rotating the mirror frame (3) in the east-west direction with the north-south direction as the axis of rotation, a pair of arms (6, 6) that project from the east-west rotating shaft bar (5) toward the east side and the west side, and a support post (7) that pivotally supports the east-west rotating shaft bar (5). The pair of north-south rotating shaft bars (16, 16) are provided at the distal ends of the pair of arms (6, 6) so as to be mutually facing, the angle in the east-west direction of the reflecting face of the reflecting mirror (2) is adjusted by the mirror frame (3) and the like being integrally rotated in the east-west direction with the east-west rotating shaft bar (5) as the axis of rotation, and the angle in the north-south direction of the reflecting faces of the one or more reflecting mirrors (2) is adjusted by the mirror frame (3) being rotated in the north-south direction with the pair of north-south rotating shaft bars (16, 16) as the axes of rotation. Thus, a low cost heliostat device (1) is provided.
