PLANT FOR ORIENTATION OF SOLAR-VOLTAIC ARRAY TO SUN Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC F24J2/54 

FIELD: heating systems.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to solar power engineering and namely to photo power plants and can be used at solar power stations for converting solar energy into electric one, and it can also be used as private power plant. Plant for orientation of solar-voltaic array to the Sun includes platform whereon there arranged is rectangular console for fixing the solar-voltaic array and Sun tracker system including azimuth rotation sub-system and zenith rotation sub-system. Platform is made in the form of a space frame; azimuth rotation sub-system is made in the form of horizontal annular base the lower surface of which rests at least on three rollers mutually spaced in a circumferential direction and fixed on platform, at least one of them is a drive roller with a drive, and zenith rotation sub-system and rectangular console for fixing the solar-voltaic array are installed with possibility of being rotated in vertical plane on horizontal axis fixed at the top of pyramidal frame attached to horizontal annular base.

EFFECT: invention shall provide increased operating reliability under various climatic conditions.
