ABSTRACT:
A modular solar greenhouse incorporates rigid curving frames overhead with screw and nut tracks for ease of assembly and east side and west side end modules and advantageously employs a thermally broken glazing system; that is, the exterior and interior portions of the aluminum frame extrusions are bonded together by strong plastic material and then the metal bridge is removed for thermally isolating the interior frame portion from the exterior portion. At least one overhead heat storage unit is carried by the rigid frames, with insulated roofing being located above and also being supported by the frames, so that low-angle solar radiation in the wintertime can travel directly into the upper region of the greenhouse below the roof for directly impinging upon and supplying heat energy to the thermal storage units. Movable, reflective insulation barriers or curtains are extendible for enclosing the solar greenhouse for retaining warmth resulting from stored solar heat energy in the overhead storage units during winter nights.
