ABSTRACT:
A solar energy concentrating collector having a concave paraboloid reflector surface supported on a plurality of segments, said segments being parabolically-shaped on the top edge and extending radially from a circle near the central axis of revolution to the periphery, and arranged to coact with a reference means which is equidistant from the central axis at all points of revolution.
The reference means may be a protrusion coacting with a cutout or other indentation on the bottom edge of a semi-parabolic shaped support whereby to insure accurate placement of reflector components for high focusing accuracy after assembly.
