ABSTRACT:
There is described an improved, modular, solar energy converting unit which operates as a solar heater. The modular heater incorporates upper and lower surfaces and a prescribed chamber therebetween. The chamber is defined by a plurality of walls or baffles which are substantially parallel and, alternately, extend from opposite sides of the modular unit. In addition, a sinuous, continuous rib member is arranged intermediate adjacent areas of said baffles while providing an interconnection which is spaced from the free end of alternate ones of the baffles. Each of the side walls includes portions which may be selectively interconnected with other portions of adjacent modules. In addition, each of the side walls includes means for aligning and interlocking adjacent modules. Additional support members are provided, to the extent necessary, wherein the module is capable of supporting substantial weights and may be used as a surface decking or the like.
