The invention is a Solar Shutters Modular Unit. The modular unit comprises a rectangular
supporting framework, and any number of Solar Shutter Blades into which a photovoltaic solar
panel is affixed to the top upwardly facing side of the Solar Shutter Blades, engaged in parallel
within the framework. The underside of the Solar Shutter Blades integrates LED Lights.
The Solar Shutter Blades contain a Rotating Geared End Bearing at one end of the blade, and a
Rotating Electrical Cable Bearing at the other end of the blade.
The electrical wiring and electrical connections interfacing each Solar Shutter Blade are
integrated into the side supporting framework, allowing each Solar Shutters Blade to rotate

Solar Shutters Modular Unit
Title Meaning:
Solar: relating to or denoting energy derived from the sun's rays.
Shutters: Shutters are a modern version of louvres where the slats/blades can be adjusted to any angle at different times of day.
Modular: A modular design is an approach for product designing which is used to produce a complete product by integrating or combining smaller parts that are independent of each other. Each of these individual components is then integrated together to form the final product.
Unit: A unit is a single, whole part of something, like a building block, refers to any singular thing that is part of something larger.
Field of the Invention
1. This invention relates generally to a Solar Shutter Modular Unit for vertical installation in buildings such as residential and commercial buildings such as apartments, offices and the like which may be installed within window openings, inside or outside of window frames, to enclose balcony's and the like, as well as horizontally installed as pergola roof structures that open and close and generate renewable solar energy. 2. The solar shutter blades also contain LED Lights on the underside of the blade which illuminate at night from the solar power generated from the attached photovoltaic solar panel on the top side of the solar blades.
Background of the Invention
A. Photovoltaic solar panels are utilised for harnessing solar energy for electricity generation. Current installations comprise any number of solar panels connected in series feeding into an electrical inverter. Such solar panels are generally attached only to rooftops of houses and buildings and being relatively heavy with a glass panel on the front surface area, require steel mounting frames for secure attachment.
B. However, rooftop space is limited and a need exists for appropriate vertical
installations for the harnessing of solar energy from other available building areas
such as vertical building facades and windows.
C. Current standard rooftop mounted photovoltaic panels cannot be installed vertically
onto buildings as their construction materials, installation method and weight are all
prohibitive.
D. The present invention seeks to provide a vertically mountable modular photovoltaic louvered device which will overcome the limits of conventional photovoltaic solar
panels, or to at least provide an alternative method and capability of renewable solar
energy capture and utilization.
E. The unique design, manufacture materials and technologies that encompass this
invention enable an effective method of vertical renewable solar energy capture and
utilization.
