Abstract

PURPOSE:To make constitution simpler, cost lower and performance higher by sticking tightly a reflecting film which is soft and has a metallic gloss with the metallic gloss surface on the outside to the aperture of a drum-shaped vessel having a circular aperture and evacuating the inside of the vessel. CONSTITUTION:An evacuating nozzle 2 is provided to a drum 1 for evacuation consisting of a rigid resin, metal, etc. and having an aperture. A soft reflecting film 3 is attached into the aperture by means of a lock ring 4 and bolts 5 in using a gasket or the like in such a way that airtightness is maintained in the drum. When the air in the drum is gradually evacuated through the nozzle 2, the film 3 is sucked to the inside of the drum to form a concave face. If the degree of evacuation is adjusted in this stage, the position of the focus 6 of the concave reflecting mirror can be adjusted within the permissible range of the elongation of the film. After the inside of the drum is evacuated until the prescribed focus is obtd., the valve for the nozzle 2 is closed to maintain the reduced pressure in the drum. The convave face formed to the film 3 in such a way is used as a reflecting mirror, by which the constitution is simplified, the cost is reduced and the performance is improved.

That is, the concave reflective mirror of the present invention includes a drum-shaped container or frame having a circular opening, and a reflective film having a flexible metallic luster surface is tightly attached to the opening of the drum-shaped container or frame with the metallic lustrous surface facing outward.
This is a concave reflecting mirror that is characterized by reducing the pressure inside the container.

以下、図面により発明の詳細な説明する。Hereinafter, the invention will be explained in detail with reference to the drawings.

Decompression drum 1 having an opening made of hard resin, metal, etc.
A decompression nozzle 2 is provided in the drum, and a reflective film 3 is attached to the opening with a fixing ring 4 and bolts 5 using a gasket or the like so that the inside of the drum is airtight.

Next, when the air inside the drum is gradually extracted from the decompression nozzle 2 using a vacuum pump or the like, the reflective film 3 is attracted to the inside of the drum and forms a concave surface. At this time, by adjusting the degree of reduced pressure, the position of the focal point 6 of the concave reflecting mirror can be adjusted within the allowable range of the film extension.

As the material for the vacuum drum, a hard resin metal may be used as appropriate. In particular, if a light metal such as resin, aluminum, or titanium is used, the entire reflector will be extremely lightweight, making it extremely useful for transportation. Also, it is very advantageous in terms of cost.

Example 1 A polypropylene aluminum vapor-deposited film was placed on a vacuum drum made of hard PVC with a diameter of 1.000 x m as shown in the drawing, and the pressure inside the drum was reduced using a small vacuum pump. The focal length of the concave surface formed at this time was approximately 300 WIt. When sunlight was reflected on this concave surface, the temperature of the blackbody placed at the focal point was over 1000°C.
