TELESCOPIC PNEUMATIC ADAPTIVE ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION CONVERTER Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC G02B7/188 F24S23/70 F21V7/16 G02B17/06 

FIELD: electronic equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention can be used in devices that convert the energy of electromagnetic radiation into other types of useful energy, as well as in optical telescopes, radio telescopes and radar. Converter comprises a support frame and a primary and secondary mirror, the optical axes of which are aligned. Support frame is a sealed gas-filled chamber made of a shell and has a shape close to the torus. On the opposite parts of the frame are made two basic supporting surfaces in the form of a flat ring. Shells realizing the functions of the concave primary and secondary convex mirrors are sealed on opposite base support surfaces of the frame. Third shell is fixed tightly on the second shell along the ring centered on the optical axis of the primary mirror with a radius, equal to the radius of the secondary mirror, on the surface of the second shell, which is opposite to the surface facing the primary mirror. Sealed cavities between the shells are filled with gas under pressure.

EFFECT: technical result is the creation of a converter with a large aperture diameter for placement, including in the high layers of the atmosphere and in space.
