The specific embodiment

Can understand the various aspects of invention disclosed herein with reference to hereinafter better together with the argumentation of accompanying drawing, said accompanying drawing has constituted the part of this specification and has been incorporated into this paper by reference.Argumentation to particular example does not limit the scope of the invention, and provides argumentation to be merely the various aspects that help to understand invention disclosed herein.Claim is endowed and the principle of this paper and the general and specific consistent extensive interpretation of explanation.

For the combination of each parts and parts is introduced; Figure 28 to Figure 30 illustrates the solar groove type collector of part assembling; Said collector can comprise collector pipeline 2801, by a plurality of curved reflectors 2802 and end arm 2806 that at least one securing member 2803 connects in the midpoint of big arc, said big arc forms through connecting curved reflector.Curved reflector can have core body, reflecting part 2807, outer cover 2805 and the optional end cap of more completely describing as hereinafter 2804.Supporting structure is like the described slot type collector of preamble but does not have the reflecting part.

How Fig. 1 can utilize core body (for example foamed material 201), a plurality of end arm 102 and specific collector of a plurality of end cap 103 compositions if illustrating.Each of these parts is all discussed hereinafter in more detail.

1. Core body

Core body can be polymer, polymeric foam or such as the cellular material of composite honeycomb board (for example aluminium honeycomb core body, said core body has stiff sheet that cellular material is clipped in the middle and/or the rigid polymer of filling the gap).Core body is preferably rigidity, thereby makes the indent arcuate surface on the core body can lay reflecting surface, and the shape of said reflecting surface is complied with the shape of indent arcuate surface.

The indent arcuate surface can be a parabolic, cylindrical on a side of core body, or other indent arc.The opposite side of core body can have the curvature of evagination, and like what will explain after a while, said outer convex curvature is the mirror image of the curvature of second core body.The curvature that therefore opposite side can have evagination maybe can not have curvature.

If core body keeps accurate indent curvature when laying other parts (for example outer cover, end cap, reflecting element, backing and/or end arm), then can adopt flexible core body.

(i) The polymer core body

Core body can be a polymer, for example rigidity or semi-rigid polymer.Core body can be solid or have the foams of pore chamber (unlimited or closed).Preferably, owing to its moisture barrier properties comprises has adopted closed-cell foam material, polymer can have enough rigidity and surface strength, thereby surf deform is less when reflecting material lays to the surface.Therefore the curved surface of core body is accurately given the material that is laid with its curvature.

Like Fig. 1, Fig. 2 and shown in Figure 26, can be used for processing the curved reflector 101 of collector by foamed material 201,2601 (for example expanded polystyrene (EPS) (EPS), extruded polystyrene (XPS) or foaming extruded polystyrene (the XEPS)) core body of processing.Alternatively, can utilize other suitable material (for example polyurethane, glass fibre or epoxy resin) to process panel.For example, XPS has good moisture barrier properties comprises.Can adopt the foams of different densities, and density can be for example about two or three pounds every cubic feet.

Foams cheap and can production in the locality, moulding and modification.Adopt foams can reduce the quantity of required parts, do not obtain the collector shape because need not process.Foams allow single-piece manufacturing (for example, core body can be made for single parts or cut from foams in mould) and easy operating, have reduced installation time thus and made to be easy to assembled in

situ.Foamed material

201,2601 still is lightweight, keeps enough intensity simultaneously to bear wind load, and this application that roof is installed is significant advantage.The foamed material that forms can be confirmed the shape and size of various holes like a cork.For example, the hole of broad has increased the amount of the reflecting surface of each panel, allows the temperature that reaches higher thus, and therefore bigger energy conversion efficiency is provided.

In addition,

foam core

201,2601 can be reflecting element 601 (Fig. 6) and 2602 (Figure 26) provide substrate preferably, because when core body adheres to reflecting element (the for example metal through polishing), compound is a structure significantly more strong and that more accurately form.A reason is that reflecting

element

601,2602 is by solid mass---foamed

material

201,2601 supporting rather than as preamble by reference and ground described in the previous patent application that combines across one group of rib.The foamed

material

201,2601 that forms can provide structural integrity and to making the resistivity of the crooked or power reversed of supporting structure.Therefore,

foam core

201,2601 provides supporting and protectiveness backing preferably for arched reflector.

Any core body all can have other material to lay on it or be bonded to wherein, for example damp-proof layer, jointing material, UV (ultraviolet ray) occluding material or absorbing material and back-up coat.Therefore, various protectiveness material layers can lay any or all surface (the for example arcuate surface of evagination and/or indent) to core body, or for example can fixture be bonded in the core body.

(i) Cellular-core

As mentioned that cellular-core can be an aluminum honeycomb panel for example.One or more surfaces that can be through laying rigidity or semi-rigid layer to core body or through will in the gap of honeycomb, making this plate become rigidity such as the material cured of polymer.These layers can comprise any of rigidity or semi-rigid polymer (for example Merlon, polyurethane and polystyrene).

Any core body can have indent arcuate surface and optional evagination arcuate surface, on said indent arcuate surface, is placed with the reflecting layer, on said evagination arcuate surface, can place back lining materials.

2. Obtain the method for the collector panel-shaped of hope

As shown in Figure 3; CNC machine 301 capable of using cuts one or more foam blanks 302 (for example one or more foam block) through hot line, or utilizes laser cutting machine or miscellaneous equipment and make foamed material 201 (Fig. 2), 2601 (Figure 26) be shaped to the panel-shaped of hope.In system shown in Figure 3, process a plurality of core bodys simultaneously through the hot line 303 one or more foam blanks of cutting.Therefore, a plurality of core bodys have been processed simultaneously by the polymer blank.Can near the position in any given project place, be molded into the foam blank and cut into one or more core bodys 201, reduce cost of transportation thus.

Described in the previous patent application that in preamble, combines by reference with the stamping forming processing cost of rib, adopt CNC hot line cutting machine 301 to cut foamed material 201 and can reduce overall processing cost.Can make the collector moulding to form the parabola shaped wing 501 (Fig. 5); Thus two alar part spares are positioned at together to form complete parabola groove collector 501 along their vertical end, said complete parabola groove collector has the arc length bigger than arbitrary alar part spare.This design allows parts effective nested when making with transportation to drop with the material that reduces when cutting, and cost of transportation is reduced to

minimum.Foam pieces

201,2601 can cut into have bigger or less thickness the zone to provide such as following characteristic: stand on the whole surface and help reflector panel is remained on the reflector stop part of appropriate location, highly regulates to hold and the parts of core body handing-over and the zone of the intensity increase near the place of needs (for example securing member and/or outer cover).

If necessary, if especially core body all is the polymer blank that cuts simultaneously from identical, then the curvature of the bottom surface of core body or convex surface can conform to the end face or the concave surface of another core body.

The polymer core body be considered to be in core body polymer to stretch everywhere and compress all be homogeneous, especially when core body or a plurality of core body be when processing in this way: foam blank (for example foam block) is cut into desirable shape and not further heating and curved body foamed material.Although also can process core body or process core body through the extrusion molding foam body through moulding; But theoretically; When in the mould that makes polymer in precise forming during polymerization, with the foams heating of polymerization with crooked can be with pressure and pulling force introducing foams (especially introducing closed-cell foam).

In addition, compare with the core body of in mould, processing, cutting foam blank provides the core body of " anoderm ".The core body of cutting autohemagglutination compound blank has a small amount of and even does not have crust.Any very thin and/or discontinuous usually through adopting hot line or cut to cut the crust that the foam blank forms, and be considered on the whole than thinner at the crust that in mould, forms between polymerization period.The physical characteristic of the crust that the core body that in mould, forms has usually extremely is different from the main body foams under the crust.When core body is that the surface of core body is similar to the main body foams under the surface very much when cutting from the foam blank.Therefore cutting is more even from the core body that the core body of blank is considered to than in mould, forms.Therefore the method from blank cutting core body provides rindless core body, and said anoderm core body is different from the polymer core body that in mould, forms.

In addition, compared with the foams that in mould, form, cutting possibly form under higher temperature from the foam core of blank.Foams have low thermal conductivity usually, and because the large scale of blank and/or than the high temperature of longer time of the core body experience that in mould, forms, the foams of blank are expected at and in most of foams, have experienced higher temperature between polymerization period greatly.Be used for the mould of core body, the foams of much less can cool off sooner, cause lower temperature and/or much fast cool time, in great majority or all foams, polymerization are taking place under the said lower temperature.Therefore think; Cutting has stood than the higher temperature of moulding core body experience and/or the higher temperature of longer a period of time from the foam core of blank for a long time; This is similar to a kind of " preliminary treatment " to foams, and this preliminary treatment can bring longer service life for the core body that is formed by the polymer blank.

3. External skin

Like Fig. 4 and shown in Figure 27; The outer surface 2701 of the foamed material 201 that forms can scribble suitable external skin 401,2702 (for example epoxy resin, paint, vinyl or other UV suppress material) so that: (1) protection foams are avoided the influence of UV ray; (2) seal foams in order to avoid make moist, and/or (3) provide extra

structural support.Coating

401,2702 can be such as following material: plastics or other polymer (for example polyvinyl chloride), metal (for example aluminium), glass fibre, canvas or other material; These material fusions or affix to the foamed

material

201,2601 of formation from the outside; Maybe can form tissue layer, provide thus boisterous impact resistance.Can spray through material, smear hope, dipping, fusion or pour into to foams and be coated with application layer, or alternatively, but the modified plastic material combines to allow proper protection property external skin to be included in the foamed material self or with foamed material self.

4. Curved reflector (wing)

Extremely shown in Figure 30 like Fig. 5 and Figure 28, two or more the symmetrical curved reflectors or the

wing

501,2802 can be arranged.These

wings

501,2802 can utilize securing member such as clip (H shape for example among Figure 37 A and Figure 37 B, that describe in further detail hereinafter or the

clip

502,2803 and 3701 and 3702 of other shape) to be connected in the bottom of parabolic arc.Alternatively,

clip

502,2803,3701,3702 can be connected with the

pillar

503,2808 that describes in further detail hereinafter, said pillar supporting the

receiver pipeline

1301,2801 that describes in further detail hereinafter.

The

wing

501,2802 also can rotate independently, so they can be adjacent to each other and form the configuration 504 of clamshell, and said configuration 504 allows protection or deposits collector.Especially, can the wing is attached pivotly to allow each wing to pivot and rotation at the top of another wing 504.This has protected the inside of panel and has reduced wind load.The wing is driven by chain wheel assembly, and said chain wheel assembly engages the 2nd half panel when some and also synchronously drives it when arriving certain.It is ornamental that the wing can also or replace.

5. Reflector Panel

Like Fig. 6 and shown in Figure 26, core body supporting reflecting element panel or

panel sections

601,2602 are positioned on the

foam surface

602,2603 of formation.One or more

Reflector Panels

601,2602 can form reflecting surface on supporting structure.Reflecting element can be a flexible material, for example the aluminium of polishing, with the aluminium of reflectivity polyester film (Mylar) lamination, or other suitable material, for example spraying plating has the epoxy resin or the glass mirror of silver.Preferably, adopt be polished to mirror finish flexible aluminum deck as reflecting element.Reflecting element can be flexible; Thereby can be under normal temperature and normal pressure the plate bending of reflecting element be become desirable shape; Or reflecting element can be rigidity at normal temperatures and pressures, but can utilize heat and utilize pressure or vacuum to be deformed into desirable shape alternatively.
