円滑に行うようにしたものである。The present invention accommodates the Fresnel lens, the sunlight collecting section, etc. configured as described above in a transparent spherical container 13, so that the Fresnel lens, the sunlight collecting section, etc. can be stably exposed to sunlight without being affected by wind. In addition, these Fresnel lenses and the sunlight collecting section are arranged along two orthogonal axes that pass through the center of the spherical container 13, that is, the rotational support shaft 7.
It is rotatably supported around a rotational horizontal axis 11 to minimize rotational mass, thereby allowing automatic follow-up operation to be performed quickly and smoothly.

とができる。In this way, by rotating the Fresnel lens and the sunlight collecting section at the center of the spherical container, sunlight can always be collected under the same conditions no matter which direction the Fresnel lens is facing. Since the rotational axis is located at the center of the sphere, the rotational torque is small, and the response speed can therefore be increased.
