SOLAR PLANT Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC F24J2/12 

FIELD: lighting.

SUBSTANCE: invention pertains to solar energy and can be used in special purpose solar plants, for instance, in facilities for decontamination of water, used for extermination of pathogenic microscopic flora using ultraviolet light. The solar plant consists of framework in the form of a paraboloid of rotation, with a concentrator of UV radiation in the form of a set of plain facets, mounted on the framework in circular coaxial zones, UV radiation receiver located in the focal region of the concentrator, control element connected to the control unit, and flat reflecting elements, optically interfaced with the control element and mounted on the rear side of the framework opposite the plain facets. The solar plant is also equipped with equal length rod-shaped bushings. The framework is made from guiding, parallel axis of the paraboloid of rotation under the above mentioned bushings, and with windows opposite the central regions of the plain facets. The bushings are mounted on the guides with possibility of elastic interaction of their ends with sides of the plain facets and the flat reflecting elements. The control element is mounted in front of the UV light receiver at a distance equal to the length of the bushings and optically interfaced with the flat reflecting elements through channels in the facets.

EFFECT: the invention allows for reduction of size and increasing accuracy of measuring intensity of UV light.
