Description

[State of the art]

Many tracking systems for roofs and ground-mounted systems are offered on the market, all designed on the basis of metal structures. ( Photon "Tracking System Market Overview" issue October 2009 )

Our invention has minimal metal components over the prior art and is thus a unique tracking solution offered on a polymeric basis with respect to the world market. There are currently no known technical solutions that allow a marketable application.

There is no near invention in the prior art, as proposed by us. Significant unique selling points can be seen in energy efficiency, cost reduction in manufacturing, transportation of the system and synergy and added value of the system. As a result, it also benefits from building physics in the area of use of roofs, as it has a slight elevation and tracking on a polymer basis. The state of the art is analyzed below.

Systems are known which are inflated as solar panels in the atmosphere. One of these systems is in the patent WO 2008119094 A2 of 2007, "Inflatable solar collector, Höfler, praise" described adversely affects the system on the energy efficiency, since it is static and can not be aligned in all directions and the optimal position of the sun. It simply lacks the tracking.

By contrast, our system achieves the sole goal of tracking with compressed air (positive and negative pressure), to achieve optimum sun alignment via sensor-controlled control mechanisms and, at the same time, to significantly increase the level of energy production. The structure of the components of the system are very cost efficient.

In the patent of DT 2604345 A1 from 1976, a collapsible pneumatic solar concentration mirror by Prof. Kleinwächter is proposed, which is already the first use of polymers in systems engineering for energy production. Unfortunately, this invention does not provide a possibility of pneumatic tracking over thin-film technology and films.

Washington's United States Department of Energy set a trend-setting global trend in 1986 and patented it DE 3631505 A1 produced. At that time, this system was exemplary in that it protected the actual solar cells against weather and hail by means of an inflatable membrane material. However, within this system a tracking has been integrated, which is completely made of metal and was not designed on the basis of polymers. This eliminates the claim to have designed a simple and easy tracking system, since it works without compressed air technology.

Our system works with compressed air technology. Individual so-called flexible polymeric carrier elements are provided as a pneumatic muscle, which achieves an unhindered, simple and stable tracking to the sun via the change of the pressure conditions. Compressed air controlled systems are known in a variety of patents, with a body changed by a force effect.

In the patent DE 2718528 A1 from the Siemens AG Berlin and Munich from 1978, has proposed such a system with the excellent characteristics by creating a jam by using a flowing in a hose gaseous working fluid, which drives a machine part via a roller. The basic idea is quite usable, but for the use of solar cells and for traceability at the present time unthinkable and not applicable.

The German Aerospace Center. e. v, Cologne has under the DE 19825785 A1 Solar sailor with "sail foil and folding tube" from 1998 and 2001 under the DE 10109529 A1 filed a patent as a "device with a cross-sectionally flat compressed and longitudinally rolled up mast". These innovative approaches show the possibility in the constructive lightweight construction and the possible lower material usage for the movement process. The solutions presented there are exemplary, although they would not make sense for the technical trackability of solar cells, especially those that are on Earth, because they are not stable enough.

Hoses which are expanded by compressed air in cross-section and thereby shorten in length to exert a force, have long been known and are state of the art. This technique was successfully further developed by Festo in cooperation with the TU Berlin. The company Festo AG & CO from Esslingen has a utility model in 2006 DE 20 2006 001 921 U1 logged in by such muscles in a compressed air tank station are used, which drives a cell trackable. However, in this case an accumulator is used by repeated on and from movement over a kind of gear the Nachführbarkeit reached.

The system works well for small and single units. However, it can not be used for our technical purpose because, like many tracking techniques, it requires a kind of gear to move the cells. This type of techniques and the moving components must withstand increased abrasion, which can not be guaranteed via technical components permanently via polymers. The cost of materials, repairs and maintenance would be disproportionate to the benefits and profitability. The movement by means of gear and moving components belongs predominantly to the state of the art. Therefore, our system works without these components and only with the component "compressed air".

The state of the art shows a large number of system solutions for occupying roofs and good partial solutions from manufacturers of solar cells, which have permanently protected the modules against external influences due to climatic weather conditions such as rain, snow and hail and sealed them against water and humidity. However, these systems are only well in the area without tracking cells solved.

At present, many well-known cell embedding of static systems are known whose carrier system consists of glass and glass-like substances from the back and the front side and protects the entire switched generator surface from external influences. A tracking of the cells can usually be accomplished only by a simple mechanical manual or by electric drives. The material and operating effort is not particularly profitable for energy efficiency and the tracking usually only uniaxial in the elevation angle adjustable.

The same applies to the so-called flexible solar films, which are elaborately enclosed in the laminate and still have to be made very expensive. Thus, for example, under the company PVflex Solar Produktion GmbH, headquartered in Fürstenwalde and Bayer MaterialScience AG in Leverkusen a patent DE 10 2005 032 716.8 2005, which describes a "Flexible solar power module with an integrated power supply". The module is glass-free and completely sealed, the assembly of the modules is done on site, preferably by gluing on almost any roofing materials and also on curved surfaces without the need for a rear cable feed. However, the system is not traceable and can not be used modularly. The system is intended exclusively for solar power generation and has no added and value-added features.

The patent below DE 20 2009 006 941 U1 The Inventux Technologies AG in Berlin, shows an excellent invention performance by the reflector layer is present between the lamination and the cover to achieve a cost-effective high energy yield. This system also has no tracking. Also the "solar module" WO 2009109472 A1 2008 is well sealed by Q-Cells and is also not suitable for tracking. This system can not be combined with additional functions like the previously described systems.

The Solon AG has under the EP 1903613 A1 Filed a patent in 2006, which is characterized as a "lightweight photovoltaic system in an education as a module plate and the cells are cost-effectively fixed with a light rope tensioning system in these modules. This module plate is still difficult and restrictive in its technical design.

By contrast, our invention embeds the basic generator surface safely and stably within polymers which can be easily, translucently and flexibly multiaxially tracked. The modular arrangement, switching and adaptability of the latest cell development on the market is possible at any time. With the change in the pressure conditions in the chambers are additional benefits in the absence of solar power generation z. B. rainwater at night, conceivable. But also the combination to light and advertising purposes is possible and offers the claim to be a system, which has the architectural integration to the topic.

The prior art combination systems, as in the patent DE 19809883 A1 SolarWerk GmbH, Teltow, "Solar hybrid collector for combined power and heat generation and a process for its production" have been registered since 1998 and are still used today. A disadvantage of the solar panels, the entire lamination affects, because the system is not compatible, variable, adaptable or modular use and usable.

In contrast, under the patent DE 103 07 540 A1 , which was registered in 2003 by the Bayer AG, Leverkusen, proposed a solar-powered air collector, in which the technique of how the absorber instead of metal based on films and thus is lightweight. In writing, the system is not used modularly and it is not technically suggested to track the sun.

The patent DE 10 2006 030 245 A1 , which was registered by the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft for the promotion of applied research in Munich in 2006, shows a partially transparent solar collector with sun protection function. The added value of this system lies in the additional function of shading. This circumstance is favored by the fact that the solar collector is designed with a flat absorber body. This invention is combinable in the approaches for our system and possibly applicable.

Another patent is from the company in the specification DE 10 2005 058 712 B4 2005 were registered. This document describes an "optically transparent lightweight component" which can be used as an insert for roofs and side walls. The special feature of this system is the possibility of coloring the components and increasing the absorption capacity over color. However, a disadvantage of the foil cushioning technique is the rigid design of the components and the inflexibility with respect to the tracking to the sun.

The state of the art for the occupation of traffic and outdoor areas shows that the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft for the Promotion of Applied Research, Munich has a patent under the DE 10 2008 059 858 A1 2008 by proposing a "New carrier system for the construction of photovoltaic field installations and their use". The invention is simple and inexpensive in construction. The disadvantage of this invention is that no complex tracking to the differentiated sunsets is possible. The "clothesline principle" is very unstable with wind pressure and suction effect, because by certain static moments can occur resonance cases, which can severely affect the system in the stability, if necessary, costly foundations, suspensions and constructive connections must be provided.

In another patent DE 20314665 U1 from 2003 by Solar Wall GmbH & CO. KG from Kraftsdorf, shows an arrangement for the extensive coverage of railings with solar cells. There are a variety of solutions for different railing surveys were invented, which can not be optimally tracked to the sun or the system can be tracked solar only the sun, if a defined slope is present. Therefore, this invention is associated with high follow-up costs and therefore inefficient. Posselt, Schlossbauer, Grabenstädt and Egenhofen have under DE 10 2007 001 827 A1 2007 a "device from a plurality of structural modules" logged. A mature concept for roofing and substructure, roof surface through membrane is described in detail in this document and is available. However, this construction is expensive, heavy and there is no tracking technique shown. This system is useless as a pure power plant solution and more suitable for small roofs.

Our system of solar dynamics GmbH, however, is conceivable for the most difficult terrain and can be used, because it allows multi-axis telescopic supports the base setting in height and to adjust the different sun positions fast and stable. This process is automatically and cost-effectively controlled by compressed air and sensor technology. A major advantage of the prior art is the elimination of theft and Vandalismussicherungsmechanismen to protect against external influences, since our system is hardly accessible from the ground. Resonance cases are formed by stable frames between the columns on which the actual polymer solar pads are integrated via cable connections in compressed air hoses and placed in inflatable polymer frames. The tracking of the polymeric membrane pads to the sun and the adjustability of the supports results in a combined interlocking of motion processes, which results in an increase in energy efficiency, a minimization of the inherent shading of the system and a higher occupation density. These unique features stand out from the state of the art.

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The invention has the task of creating an innovative solar system technology for the use of solar energy, which significantly increases the energy efficiency. Through our invention, the barriers to planners, architects and real estate owners towards the applied solar technology on the market will continue to be reduced and a new integration in the architecture and landscape are produced. Here is the cost-cutting potential, the better profitability of the system (shorter amortization of an investment). and the higher energy yield has a positive effect. The basic components of the system further favor this circumstance because of the use of less expensive materials (polymers), the cost of materials and the nature of the motion processes with films and compressed air and sensor technology.

The key point in system technology is the increase in the energy yield of a photovoltaic generator area. This is determined by the efficiency of the solar cells, the location of the plant, the orientation of the individual generator areas perpendicular to the sun, the season and the applied system technology. The efficiencies of solar cells are determined by the manufacturer about laboratory testing and certification (STC).

The object of the invention is to provide a system technology so that the different cells can be integrated by as many manufacturers as possible. Our innovative system technology is able to equip locations with extreme climatic weather conditions, because we can respond to the special needs and requirements in a customer-oriented manner. This refers to the solution of a wide variety of shading influences in the field of roof and ground-mounted systems, the solution in the field of the most difficult static conditions (post-war roofs) and finally the adaptation of system technology to a wide variety of surface sizes. Due to the synergies and added value effects, we can respond to the special customer requirements in a very differentiated way. Important basis is the aesthetics with its appropriate and adapted design over parameters of the color and function of the system. This task is solved above all by the tracking technique on a polymer basis, which offers unlimited possibilities in terms of design. The foils can be changed with the latest printing technology in the structure. Also in areas of the traffic area (carports), the height adjustment, as in the field power plants come to fruition by the entire area over the supports and the installed solar pads can be tracked. In case of unwanted back pressure caused by wind and storm, the system can also be easily secured by means of negative pressure by lowering it completely to the horizontal position.

Our technique is modular, allowing for a combined application of statically stored cells with trailing cells. With the modular design and concentrator systems are also conceivable and conceivable, which are fed via other cells (Fresner lenses) with solar radiation. This system works through a multi-layered structure of the actual generator area. This technology achieves very high efficiencies, because the rest of the solar radiation in the second and third, etc., layers is reused for solar power generation.

The task and associated extended spectrum of the invention extends the pure use of solar power generation and thus generates added value.

The main focus is the solar power generation but with the change of the form over compressed air technology and technical additional components further benefits can come to bear. Thus, the system offers solvable technical proposals for lighting, advertising purposes and collecting gray water.

In the regions with water scarcity, the agricultural precipitation yields in the water column are usually very low over the year in mm water column and make a cost-intensive water management over well engineering or water pipes necessary. By using our system technology as outdoor areas, water can be collected via the polymer membrane structures and distributed over areal perforated foils for targeted irrigation. In addition, a constructive shading of the vegetation is achieved by the arrangement of the films. As a result, the agricultural vegetation of crops is favored and increases crop yields.

The vast majority of old buildings in Germany is due to the rapid construction in the post-war period were statically dimensioned only to the most necessary, so in fact can hardly absorb additional loads (such as a solar system). Therefore, a variety of geographically located roofs for the occupancy of conventional solar systems falls away. Especially since in some countries there are even not even static safety regulations. As a result, tragic accidents are increasingly the cause because of increased snow loads (water can not flow away in the frozen state of matter), which can lead to annual building collapse at extreme snowfall. In highly technical Germany, unfortunately, there were also cases of toppling with fatal consequences. The photovoltaic systems installed on the roof are not intended to increase the static problem but to remedy this situation. Our system solution uses light polymeric chamber systems, which on the roof, via the heating systems, can very easily be supplied with warm air for defrosting the snow load via a capillary system within the polymers.

In addition, the invention has the task of setting a long-term trend in solar technology, so that it can also be used for other economies (differentiated vegetation) with additional added-value effects.

[Brief Description]

Fig. 1

Shows a tracking system from bottom to top in an exploded view. The attachment level ( 20 ) to the roof, to the outdoor area or traffic areas is via an operative connection of adhesive, mechanically or Oesenverbindungen under, on the top or side of the mounting plane ( 20 ) produced. Via a body with at least one compressed air chamber, the conical pneumatic muscles ( 12 ) via the compressed air lines ( 15 ) in the inlet device ( 16 ) and provide the conical muscle, at least one, at most four, with a compressed air adapter ( 13 ) via the receiving adapter ( 14 ) centrally from the bottom over the muscle intake ( 17 ) is positioned. It is about the piston ( 10 ) changes the height of the pneumatic conical muscle and adjusts the position to the sun. A basic carrier ( 8th ) has for the movable recording of the articulated connection ( 11 ) a stable enclosure over joint shells ( 9 ). The technical Infrastructure ( 6 ) is connected to the compressed air supply ( 7 ) the rigid and flexible solar modules ( 3 ) of an inflatable stabilizer surface ( 2 ) and a carrier protective layer ( 1 ) and thus offers the solar cell units ( 4 ) safe protection against bending and external influences on the surface. Via a connection frame ( 5 ) of polymers, the entire installation is isolated from moisture and protected. Thus, conventional solar technology can be used with this tracking system via the special integration. On the right is another integration shown as a variant, where the thin film ( 21 ) in a hinged air chamber carrier ( 22 ) can be integrated. The thin film on a heat-resistant and insulating film backing ( 23 ) and via a diffusing, translucent and transparent air chamber ( 24 ) secured from above. A polymeric reinforcement ( 26 ) around the hinged air chamber stabilizes the entire system and is provided via safety locks ( 5 ) protected against theft. The complete tracking system is provided via modular compressed air connections ( 18 ) and modular infrastructure connection ( 19 ) (Water, electricity and heat) expandable. Thus, the size of the system can be easily varied to customer requirements and maintenance work can be carried out quickly.

Fig. 2a)

Shows a pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) in the starting position, which is folded flat and not inflated. In the uppermost zone is the storage area ( 29 ), where the piston guide ( 30 ) and between the operative connection with its articulated connection ( 11 ) and the piston ( 10 ), which is inflatable by air pressure and vacuum, is located. In the initial position, the piston has the largest diameter with its variable sliding connection ( 28 ) and the piston is positioned furthest or the lateral surface of the piston ( 10 ) is completely unfolded while in the storage area ( 29 ) the entire extendable body surface is approximately flat. In the middle underneath is the compressed air adapter ( 13 ) that the operative connection with compressed air ( 27 ). The variable sliding connection ( 28 ) is in the zero position. The air chamber bag ( 118 ) is responsible for the stable development and development in the height of the pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) present and flat in this position in the starting position.

Fig. 2b)

Shows an inflated body ( 1 ) in the middle position, via the compressed air line ( 15 ) The piston ( 10 ) has decreased in cross-section by venting air (negative pressure). The chamber underneath or the air chamber bag ( 118 ) was expanded by the supply of compressed air, so that the piston controllably on the inner wall of the pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) is moved to the middle position. At the time of change of the piston in height, it slips out of the storage area ( 29 ) over the piston in the lower area and increases, so that the volume of the pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) is reduced. The pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) is, however, in the middle position and is dimensionally stable by the counter-rotating movement process in the lateral surfaces of the cone.

Fig. 2c)

Shows the inflated body ( 1 ) in its highest position. The articulated connection ( 11 ) is in communication with the piston guide ( 30 ) and the piston ( 10 ) in the end position. At this point, the inflatable piston has the smallest cross section. Via the compressed air line ( 15 ) and the compressed air supply ( 13 ) know the underlying diaphragm chamber or the air chamber bag ( 118 ) the largest volume.

Fig. 3a)

Shows the body in the initial position, preferably as a pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ), which is folded flat into one another. In the upper area is the congestion zone of the pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ), which is in operative connection with the piston guide and the piston ( 10 ) is located. Here is also the operative connection of the articulated connection ( 11 ). A compressed air spiral ( 31 ) is in the starting position. Compressed air is transported into the upper storage area around the movement process for lowering the pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) to effect. The end of the compressed air spiral ( 31 ) flows above the piston storage area ( 29 ). The centrally arranged compressed air supply ( 13 ) is located on the muscle ( 17 ), which in the circumference of the diameter by an operative connection with compressed air ( 27 ) is stabilized.

Fig. 3b)

Shows an inflated body in the middle position, preferably as a pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) is shown. About the muscle absorption is the compressed air spiral ( 31 ) in the inflatable polymeric backing plate ( 85 ). The upper piston jam area ( 29 ) forms with the piston guide ( 30 ), the piston ( 10 ) itself, the variable sliding bearing ( 28 ) and the articulated connection ( 11 ) one unity. It is on the outer lateral surface in the piston storage area ( 29 ). folded and thereby by the piston guide ( 30 ) dimensionally stable. The cross section of the piston is smaller than in drawing 3a) become because from below compressed air supply the lateral surface over the changeable sliding bearing ( 28 ) and slides on the inner surface of the pneumatic conical muscle (slidet). A precisely determined pressure of P1 and P2 causes the speed of the movement process and will only be the same when the height of the muscle is fixed. The movement process can take place in a separate air bag ( 118 ) respectively. Inside the compressed air spiral, the electrical cables are laid on the inside. This type of installation allows an aesthetic design and no disordered cable management, which contributes to reducing the risk of injury.

Fig. 3b)

Shows an inflated body in the highest position, preferably as a pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) is shown. The upper piston jam area ( 29 ) is completely streamlined and dimensionally stable. There is a pressure equalization to the position of the pneumatic cone-shaped cone ( 12 ) via the compressed air spiral ( 31 ) to reach. The piston ( 10 ) has in this position the smallest diameter and is about the variable sliding bearing ( 28 ) in its final position. The piston guide ( 30 ) is now completely centered.

Fig. 4a)

Shows a pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) with a hinged connection ( 11 ) and another principle of operation, which via a telescopic chamber device ( 32 ) is filled with air and via active compounds ( 69 ) on the outer cylindrical ring surfaces with the lateral surface of the pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) connected is. Via lateral surface stabilizers ( 38 ), which consist primarily of back resilient and integrated rubber-like strands in the lateral surface, cause an external dimensional stability in the movement process of the pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ), which manages with only one air pressure chamber, but can also be varied with two air pressure chambers and possible combinations of the other principles, in that the laterally located triangular chambers form a continuous air chamber which surrounds the telescopic chamber device ( 32 ) stabilized and keeps the lateral surface in shape.

Fig. 4b)

Shows a pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) and a varied functional principle, the ring fasteners ( 34 ), which forms a circular area in the initial position of the system and flat on the muscle ( 17 ) lie. The last ring has a circular opening for receiving the compressed air supply ( 13 ) on the muscle intake ( 17 ).

Fig. 4c)

Shows a pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) and another operating principle of the variability of the height, in that there is a different type of piston, which via a variable disc piston ( 37 ) and an internal spiral compressed air line ( 38 ) is equipped. This will produce a rotary piston compressor ( 35 ), which moves the rotary piston within the hoses running one inside the other, increasing or decreasing the diameter of the disc, thus allowing the compressed air supplied from below or from above to flow through the internal spiral compressed air line (FIG. 38 ) causes a sliding on the inside of the shell (sliden). The whole movement process is carried out via the piston guide ( 30 ) and the articulated connection ( 11 ) stabilized in one unit. The other type of embodiment is a circular compressor ( 36 ), where the piston itself is the hose. Both operating principles work via a closed end of the one hose. In the lower area is centrally a LED light unit ( 137 ), which can be illuminated at night and the pneumatic conical muscle as a light body ( 158 ) lights up.

Fig. 5

Shows the entire piston as a movement unit and its exact operating principle. You can see the piston ( 10 ), with the piston guide and the articulated connection ( 11 ) connected is. The guide piston ( 43 ) forms an internal stabilizing unit. A special flexible seal ( 44 ) absorbs the upper change of the diameter and nestles against the piston guide ( 30 ). In the initial position of the entire pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) and the piston ( 10 ) is the diameter of the flexible seal ( 44 ) the biggest. In the end position of the pneumatic conical muscle ( 12 ) and the smallest diameter of the piston ( 10 ) is also the diameter of the flexible seal smallest. The laying of the externally extending around the lateral surface compressed air spiral ( 31 ) takes place via a compressed air access which is arranged centrally through the piston guide and thus compressed air to the air bag ( 118 ) to lower the pneumatic cone-shaped muscle. The actual movement process of the piston ( 10 ) via the sliding bearing ( 40 ) is replaced by a slide bearing guide ( 41 ) produced. A special sliding guide tab ( 42 ) stabilizes the deflection tendency of the lateral surface of the piston ( 10 ). Due to the minimally yielding lateral surfaces of polymers and the flexibility to adapt to the sliding and sealing circumference of the piston diameter, it is possible to ensure a safe and pressure-stable movement of the piston ( 10 ).

Fig. 6

Shows a possible traceability of a ( 3 ) rigid / flexible solar module (generator surface), which is tracked movable in all directions. Movement in all directions is achieved by a hinged connection ( 11 ) and a joint receptacle ( 45 ), preferably at a base carrier ( 8th ) and the solar module ( 3 ), via which the tubular air chambers ( 46 ) are adjustable in height. In this figure description, there are three tubular air chambers, the height adjustability of the solar module ( 3 ) in all directions to the sun. It is a movement device ( 47 ) which ( 46 ) makes tubular air chambers controllable via compressed air. The compressed air is supplied via modular compressed air connections ( 18 ). In the figure, preferably the movement device ( 47 ) is mounted on the mounting plane that forms the floor. Another possible embodiment of the system is when the movement device ( 47 ) even directly at the solar module ( 3 ) is attached. So that the tubular chambers ( 46 ) can preferably run unrestrictedly in the fastening plane, is an infrastructure ( 49 ), which consists of compressed-air hoses or a chamber structure which controls the movement processes of the tubular air chambers ( 46 ) or a part in the lower inflatable support. About a circulatory system by means of compressed air, the tubular air chambers ( 46 ) lengthens or shortens and exerts a force of movement on the module. The basic prerequisite for the movement sequence is that no air may flow from one air chamber into the other. This is prevented by the tubular chambers ( 46 ) with a closure device ( 48 ) are fully equipped or integrated. The motive force is transmitted via the articulated connections ( 11 ) and the joint recording ( 45 ) on the basic carrier ( 8th ) and can thus move the module finely graduated in all directions.

About roles ( 55 ), which are stable on the roller bearing ( 59 ) is arranged with a lock ( 51 ) and fixation unit, the hose compressed air-tight and closed. This component thus preferably shares the hose ( 53 ) in two chambers, so that by a compressed air circulatory system ( 63 ) consisting of a side compressed air hose ( 57 ), which is about rejuvenation ( 56 ) steered and at the two hose end with connection point ( 66 ) is connected by compressed air is forced from one chamber to the other chamber over. At the one chamber to the roll there is a pressure drop and in the other chamber it leads to a pressure increase. The compressed air difference across the rollers ( 55 ) is converted into kinetic energy generated by the compressed air lock ( 61 ), the rolling abutment ( 64 ), the sliding abutment ( 65 ), the hose ( 53 ) forces in a desired direction and ensures the stable motion process.

The hose ( 53 ) with the compressed air supply ( 7 ), the hose end with connection point ( 66 ), the compressed air pump ( 67 ) and the compressed air lines ( 15 ) form a compressed air circulation system ( 63 ), which by the roles ( 55 ) is interrupted. The roller bearing ( 59 ) and the roller rejuvenation ( 56 ) allows a continuous air circulation, since here in the area no bruising of the tubular air chamber takes place, because here the side compressed air hose ( 57 ) lies. Via adapter ( 14 ), the compressed air connections can be made with each other. A mechanical active compound ( 62 ) on the housing ( 60 ) consists of the roles ( 55 ) in plate-shaped versions fixed or articulated. Another possibility is the compressed air lock ( 61 ) to fix the rollers ( 55 ) and the intermediate tubular chambers ( 46 ) smoothly.

Below the actual solar power generation, the sunlight in the heat exchanger ( 83 ), centered and via a recessed reflection foil ( 84 ) at the bottom of the thin film ( 21 ) diffused for solar power generation. This increases the efficiency of the entire generator area. In addition, through the greenhouse effect, the heat from the generator surface and the radiation for absorption available. Via a heat-resistant compound ( 82 ) on a transparent polymeric support plate ( 85 ), the underlying transparent film ( 88 ) of the air chambers are not damaged and prevented from deformation by heat.

The system can be tracked in conjunction with the solar cell carrier or positioned flat without tracking on the roof. In the first variant, it is possible at high wind speeds via a wind pressure sensor ( 156 ) To drive the system stable in the horizontal by negative pressure and thus the wind no attack surface more to offer. As a result, no damage to the technical components of the system can arise and it can be a risk of injury of living things definitely excluded. The control of the entire motion processes will not be needed in any modular interconnectable airframe, as there is one or a certain amount of leadership compressed air frames in the overall system.

Some of these can be used as solar technology in building blocks and functional units designed as a modular principle and for covering roof areas and traffic areas. The entire system is powered by one or a number of compressed air reservoirs ( 117 )

The individual carriers for solar cells ( 152 ) are used as support surfaces for receiving power generation systems, such as with conventional solar cells, with Fresner concentrator solar cells ( 91 ), Absorber surfaces can be equipped modularly with conventional or with the latest solar units. The support surfaces are separated by an infrastructure channel ( 101 ) connected to each other, so that via a data line communication, electricity, compressed air generated by compressors with a control via valves can be passed and replaced. The individual carriers for solar cells ( 152 ) as support surfaces consist of an inflatable polymer frame ( 97 ) by ropes or compressed air between ( 96 ) are stretched. These form a unit as a support surface, which preferably forms a uniform grid-like structure. The modules can be installed in the ropes or the pressure intermediate struts ( 96 ) via special active compounds ( 69 ) and fixed by special closures. The modules are fixed or connected either with detachable connections or through closures. There are various solutions of the compounds given, which can be present on ösenartige connections, fittings or tubular shapes of the tongue and groove principles. All principles can be welded or glued.

The task of the double-stored cassette compartments ( 126 ) is a kind of tracking below surfaces and within the support structure to achieve, among other things, slides can be arranged among each other slidably. This can cause shading among others due to the positions ( 124 ) and ( 125 ) can be controlled and achieved by shifting two superposed special printed foils. A reflective foil ( 84 ) can be used to shield excessive radiation from the vegetation or to further increase the energy efficiency of the solar cell systems located above it. The system makes it possible to design a rain collection and distribution system so that two foils are moved together by means of compressed air. The configuration may be such that the surfaces are perforated so that they are pressed together lying on top of each other and the holes in the film are offset arranged arranged. In this process, rainwater is collected, once they are pushed over each other, the rainwater controlled for irrigation can be used. In a water cistern ( 168 ) all the rainwater is brought together and later used for irrigation of the vegetation. The lower level can be used for the purpose of using concentrators because lenses are centered above this level, which focus and harness the sun on the system. The double-stored cassette compartments ( 126 ) allow a multitude of additional useful added value effects. The 18 ) shows the possible new Nachzuführenchniken by describing the type of support training various carriers that accommodate the support surfaces individually different application. Differentiated pronounced support elements and connecting elements show a variety of tracking, which achieve optimum energy efficiency.

The support surfaces is via a hinged connection ( 11 ) on the extendable telescopic support ( 119 ), wherein the push-out support element in the cylinder receptacle ( 120 ) running. Preferably, the support movement through an air chamber bag ( 118 ) controllable, the targeted compressed air in the cylinder receiving ( 120 ) is inflatable and makes the support element located therein movable. A pneumatically tapered muscle ( 12 ) with a hinged connection ( 11 ) makes the support surface trackable.

The formation of a column unit on the carrier system can also be combined advantageously embossed, in which the one pneumatically rollable metal construction ( 127 ), by motion control roles ( 128 ), the support stably adjustable in height. Via a movement device ( 47 ) with a compressed air valve ( 99 ), the movement process via a sliding support support ( 76 ) controlled by the movement device ( 47 ) with a roll-up and spring-like roller for winding up the pneumatically rollable metal construction ( 127 ) is provided.

The support surface is over an inflatable polymer frame via Eckaussteifung ( 129 ). Within the polymer frame ( 97 ) compressed air struts are integrated, which via retaining ball ( 98 ) are statically fixed. The change in length of the support surface is via the supports with each other by elements such as length compensation mechanisms ( 121 ) or support buffer ( 122 ) balanced. These movement processes take place either via hydraulic, pneumatic or spring principles.

This motion process may also be accomplished via exemplary rollable devices. One possibility is the stabilization cables ( 123 ), which depend statically on the support system and on a cable attachment device ( 135 ) stabilize. Through the use of stabilization cables ( 123 ) can be shortened by shortening the rope and lengthening the rope with length compensation mechanisms ( 121 ) or support buffer ( 122 ) are length changes in a device on or in the telescopic support, preferably as telescopic telescopic rod ( 119 ) trained achieved. One type of technical design of the system is achieved via the length compensation. The figure shows yet another exemplary embodiment in that on a mast ( 134 ), which is mounted at a height, various components are stored, which are protected from external influences. All connections over an infrastructure channel ( 101 ) are with the support surface among others in a communicating connection, can be reached via remote transmission These components are, like the controllable high pressure air storage ( 130 ), the control data transmission ( 131 ), the control measurement device ( 132 ) and the weather stations ( 133 ) to reach. The technical components are not too heavy, have low maintenance access and can be easily positioned against theft or property damage even at heights. If the weight is still high, it may be appropriate to position these components on the ground above a building or in the ground. Via a switchable emergency pressure unit ( 167 ) can quickly eliminate pressure losses or temporarily replace the main pressure pump until the technical defect is corrected without the system experiencing a loss of energy yield. At night, the complete polymer frame ( 97 ) and the compressed air intermediate struts ( 96 ) as light body ( 158 ) have in addition to the supporting structure its function as a synergy effect and the multi-functional units ( 136 ), which can light themselves, can be interconnected via the grid structure and can be designed in a modular way.

The carrier system preferably has absorber surfaces either or concentrators (mirrors). The support system preferably allows use by the combination of equipment for aggregation and transformation of the compressed air into other forms of energy. The carrier system preferably has a rigid foil strip, which preferably consists of metal baths and can be tracked by an inflatable foil belt running over a moving device and forms a body via compressed air, which is preferably designed cylindrical. The outer shell of the body is stretched by the process to a rigid and tubular body and has a high stability. The solar cells are preferably joined together via a foil strip such that one or the other side has different materials in order to achieve different physical properties.
