SOLAR PHOTO ENERGY APPARATUS Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC H01L31/00 H01L23/32 F16M11/06 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: solar photo energy apparatus has rectangular concentrator photoelectric modules (1) mounted on a system (2) for directing concentrator photoelectric modules (1) towards the sun. The system (2) for directing concentrator photoelectric modules (1) towards the sun is a horizontal arm (4) with parallel rotating cantilevers (5) directed in the South-North direction, which is mounted on two supports (6) and is rotated by a first electric drive (7) mounted on one of the supports (6). The parallel concentrator photoelectric modules (1) are mounted at a distance H from each other to cantilever (5) ends which are distal with respect to the horizontal arm (4). Proximal cantilever (5) ends are synchronously rotated by a second electric drive (9) mounted on a horizontal arm (2). Distance H between cantilevers (5) is selected depending on the width M of the concentrator photoelectric module (1) and the geographic latitude φ of the place the photo energy apparatus us used.

EFFECT: invention enables to reduce sensitivity to wind loads, while simplifying the design.
