In general, in vacuum tube type solar collectors, in order to efficiently convert sunlight into heat, when installing the collector,
Alternatively, when the pump stops or breaks down, the heat collecting plate is heated more than necessary, reaching temperatures of over 300 degrees Celsius in the summer. This causes the heat collector plate to deteriorate and eventually impair the properties of the heat collector.
Therefore, it is important to take measures to prevent the temperature from exceeding a predetermined temperature as much as possible.

Conventionally, in order to prevent vacuum tube type heat collectors from burning out, a reversible hydrogen getter made of a hydrogen-permeable container was installed inside a cover glass tube, and the technology utilized convective heat loss due to hydrogen released as the temperature rose. is publicly known. However, since this known technique requires the use of an active hydride, it has the disadvantage that the hydride releases hydrogen or oxidizes during production. Additionally, in the conventional example, the heat obtained from the cover glass tube is transferred to the heat transfer medium in the adjacent duct through the glass wall.
Since it is a built-in type, it has a wide range of uses, but it has a large heat exchange loss compared to a heat transfer pipe installed inside a cover glass tube, so it is not suitable for applications that require high-temperature heat collection such as air conditioning. It wasn't necessarily good.

In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks, a method for manufacturing a vacuum tube type solar heat collector has been proposed, which is characterized by providing a sealed container with a metal hydride sealed inside and opening the container inside an evacuated cover glass tube. has been done. However, although this method has the advantage that it is possible to use any kind of hydrogen-absorbing metal material, it requires a relatively complicated metal hydride formation process in advance, which increases manufacturing costs, and also requires air sintering. For the purpose of prevention, it is necessary for the glass sealed container to be in close contact with the heat collecting plate or heat collecting tube, so mechanical destruction methods cannot be used, and the means of opening the container are naturally limited.

The present invention aims to solve these drawbacks and to simplify the manufacturing process and improve its economic efficiency.The present invention aims to simplify the manufacturing process and increase its economic efficiency.
By opening the package, the hydrogen storage metal is hydrogenated to provide a vacuum tube type heat collector that can prevent dry firing, and has the following features. Since the hydrogenation and vacuum evacuation steps of a small closed container can be omitted, the manufacturing equipment becomes simple, and a special hydrogenation step is not required, so the manufacturing cost can be reduced. Since a certain amount of hydrogen can be sealed, the hydrogen equilibrium pressure can be set accurately. Furthermore, the mounting position of the capsule and its holding may be arbitrary, as long as the capsule is eventually opened.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Fig. 1 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of one embodiment of the vacuum tube type heat collector of the present invention, in which 1 is a cover glass tube of the vacuum type heat collector, 2 is a heat collection plate, and 3 is a copper pipe through which a heat medium passes. , 4 is a copper container filled with an appropriate amount of metal capable of absorbing hydrogen and covered with a sintered metal filter, and is fixedly held on the heat collecting plate 2 with screws.
Further, 5 is a glass capsule in which an appropriate amount of hydrogen is hermetically sealed and is fixedly held on the pipe 3 by a metal fitting 6. Figures 2 and 3 are diagrams showing an example of the capsule used, which is formed by welding both ends of a heating element 7 made of a molybdenum wire with a diameter of 0.2 mm to an elastic metal plate 8 made of phosphor bronze. The capsule 5 is held fixed by the elasticity of the annular body. When an alternating current is passed through the primary coil surrounding the outer periphery of the cover glass tube, an induced current is generated in the annular body, and current is passed through the heating element 7, so that the capsule 5 is melted and opened. At this time, the heating element 7 comes into close contact with the capsule due to the elasticity of the metal plate 8, and when the capsule melts, it sinks into the capsule and can be opened.
