SOLAR SELF-GUIDED COLLECTOR-SUPERCHARGER Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC F24J2/04 F24J2/54 

FIELD: heating.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to solar heating plants and can be used for heat supply to residential and production areas and other facilities as well as for other domestic and process needs. The collector is equipped by a resilient panel serving as an absorber and providing for excessive pressure in the closed cavity at its deformation, as in a diaphragm pump. The panel deformation in cyclic mode is performed by heat-sensitive elements which are heated by solar radiation. Such design of the collector with a valve system provides for the circulation of heat carrier in the solar heat supply system without electrodriven superchargers even at the most common installation of the collector above the facilities to be supplied with heat. Additionally the collector-supercharger is fitted by an energy-independent device for self-guidance by the radiation source in the form of, for example, a heat-sensitive three-layer plate perceiving the solar radiation and kinematically coupled with a rotary collector base.

EFFECT: solar self-guided collector-supercharger provides for efficient conversion of solar energy in almost any conditions of its usage without the application of known electrodriven systems for heat carrier supply and position control systems of solar collectors.
