Abstract
Description
L'invention a pour objet un capteur solaire comprenant un réflec- teur constitué dtune coque rigide recouverte diun miroir et fixée sur une structure de support. The invention relates to a solar collector comprising a reflector consisting of a rigid shell covered with a mirror and fixed to a support structure.
On connaît différents types de capteurs solaires. Généralement ceux-ci ont pour objet de concentrer les rayons du soleil et sont donc cons titubés, à cet effet, dtun miroir de forme par exemple parabolique. De préférence, le miroir est orientable en azimut et en site de fanon à rester pointé sur le soleil au cours de la journée. Different types of solar collectors are known. Generally these have the purpose of concentrating the rays of the sun and are therefore made up, for this purpose, of a mirror of parabolic shape for example. Preferably, the mirror can be rotated in azimuth and on the baleen surface to stay pointed at the sun during the day.
A cet effet, la surface réfléchissante est fixée sur une coque elle-même montée sur une charpente métallique reliée à un bâti par une articulation universelle, le bâti étant muni de moyens d'orientation de la charpente et par conséquent de la coque. To this end, the reflecting surface is fixed to a shell itself mounted on a metal frame connected to a frame by a universal joint, the frame being provided with means for orienting the frame and therefore the shell.
La coque doit être suffisamnent rigide pour que la surface réfle- chissante garde la forme voulue au cours du temps. Cependant, cette coque ne doit pas être trop lourde pour ne pas gêner ltorientation et fatiguer les mécanismes. En outre, il est avantageux que l'ensemble de la coque soit constitué d!téments accolés assez légers pour être manipulés par un homme, Enfin, pour des raisons d'économie et de facilité de mise en oeuvre, on préfère souvent que la coque soit constituée en une matière moulable. The shell must be rigid enough so that the reflective surface retains the desired shape over time. However, this shell should not be too heavy so as not to interfere with the orientation and tire the mechanisms. In addition, it is advantageous that the entire hull is made up of adjoining elements light enough to be handled by a man. Finally, for reasons of economy and ease of implementation, it is often preferred that the hull is made of a moldable material.
On a donc été amené à réaliser des coques en matière stratifiée sur lesquelles est collée la surface réfléchissante, celle-ci étant constituée généralement, ainsi que la coque, de facettes planes associées entre elles. We therefore had to produce shells in laminated material on which the reflective surface is bonded, this latter generally consisting, as well as the shell, of planar facets associated with one another.
La matière stratifiée présente plusieurs inconvénients. Tout d'abord, elle ntest pas extrêmement rigide. D'autre part, on a constaté que de l'humidité pouvait se glisser entre le miroir et la coque et y stagner, les
a l'air deux surfaces étant étanches/. Il en résulte à la longue un risque de détérioration de liargenture du miroir.The laminated material has several disadvantages. First of all, it is not extremely rigid. On the other hand, it was found that moisture could slip between the mirror and the hull and stagnate there, the
looks like two surfaces are waterproof /. This eventually results in a risk of deterioration of the silver in the mirror.
C'est pourquoi on a été amené à rechercher pour constituer la coque une autre matière n'ayant pas ces inconvénients. This is why we have been led to seek to constitute the shell another material which does not have these drawbacks.
Conformément à l'invention, la coque rigide de support de la surface réfléchissante est formée par moulage d'un produit constitué de fibres susceptibles de s'accrocher entre elles et noyées dans un liant perméable à l'air. According to the invention, the rigid support shell for the reflecting surface is formed by molding a product consisting of fibers capable of hanging between them and embedded in a binder permeable to air.
Un tel produit est constitué par exemple par un fibro-ciment, les fibres étant en amiante et le liant étant du ciment. Such a product consists for example of a fiber cement, the fibers being asbestos and the binder being cement.
Une coque ainsi constituée présente un ensemble de qualités que l'on ne trouve pas dans les matières utilisées jusqu'à présent pour cette application. A shell thus constituted has a set of qualities which are not found in the materials used until now for this application.
On sait tout d'abord que l'amiante-ciment permet de réaliser par moulage et très économiquement des coques assez légères et suffisamment rigides. We first of all know that asbestos-cement makes it possible to produce fairly light and sufficiently rigid shells by molding and very economically.
I1 se trouve par ailleurs que l'amiante-ciment présente la'prao priété d'avoir un coefficient de dilatation proche de celui du miroir et en outre de constituer une surface très propice au collage du miroir par un adhésif. Par ailleurs, ce produit est parfaitement imputrescible et résiste très bien aux intempéries. I1 is also found that asbestos-cement has la'prao priété to have a coefficient of expansion close to that of the mirror and in addition to constitute a surface very conducive to the bonding of the mirror by an adhesive. In addition, this product is perfectly rot-proof and very resistant to bad weather.
On notera également que l'amiante-ciment a t a un meilleur comportement dans le temps que la plupart des matières synthétiques que l'exposition aux rayons Ultra-Violets peut rendre cassantes. It should also be noted that asbestos cement has a better behavior over time than most synthetic materials that exposure to Ultra-Violet rays can make brittle.
Ainsi, grâce à cet ensemble de qualités, l'amiante-ciment serait déjà tout indiquée pour constituer une coque rigide conservant la forme de la surface réfléchissante pendant une longue période de temps en plein air. Thus, thanks to this set of qualities, asbestos cement would already be suitable for constituting a rigid shell retaining the shape of the reflective surface for a long period of time in the open air.
Ces qualités sont dues notamment à la solidité et à l'excellent accrochage entre elles des fibres d'amiante. Nais en outre, le ciment qui constitue le liant entre les fibres présente l'avangage supplémentaire d'être perméable à l'air. I1 en résulte qu'unie coque an amiante-ciment, en plus de ses qualités de rigidité, présente l'avantage de permettre l'évaporation de lthu- midité qui aurait pu se glisser entre la coque et le miroir. Ainsi la qualité de l'argenture est maintenue pendant beaucoup plus longtemps.These qualities are due in particular to the solidity and the excellent bonding between them of asbestos fibers. Furthermore, the cement which constitutes the binder between the fibers has the additional advantage of being breathable. As a result, a solid asbestos-cement shell, in addition to its rigidity qualities, has the advantage of allowing the evaporation of moisture which could have slipped between the shell and the mirror. Thus the quality of the silvering is maintained for much longer.
Enfin, l'amiaite-ciment se prête particulièrement bien à la constitution dtéléments légers faciles à manutentionner comportant chacun une face sur laquelle est collée la surface réfléchissante et munie le long de ses bords de nervures qui peuvent être fixées entre elles par des moyens connus. Finally, asbestos-cement lends itself particularly well to the constitution of light, easy-to-handle elements each comprising a face on which the reflective surface is bonded and provided along its edges with ribs which can be fixed together by known means.
La coque selon l'invention présente donc un ensemble de qualités qui ne se trouvaient pas dans les matières utilisées jusqu'à présent. The shell according to the invention therefore has a set of qualities which were not found in the materials used until now.
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas strictement limitée aux produits que l'on vient de décrire, dans la mesure où l'on pourrait trouver d'autres fibres ayant les qualités de résistance et d'accrochage de l'amiante et un autre liant perméable comne le ciment. Of course, the invention is not strictly limited to the products that have just been described, insofar as one could find other fibers having the strength and bonding qualities of asbestos and a another permeable binder like cement.
