ABSTRACT:
A solar energy transfer spoiler assembly, comprises of a base for supporting the remaining elements of the assembly, an azimuth and elevation drive mechanism, a moving structure frame, a plurality of energy collecting elements, a first spoiler and a second spoiler. The first end of the base is fixedly secured to the ground, and the second end is attached to the azimuth and elevation drive mechanism. The drive mechanism is comprised of an azimuth drive motor and gearing, and the elevation drive motor and gearing. The moving structure is rotatably attached to the azimuth and elevation gears for free gimboling movement by the drive mechanism. The moving structure is a rectangular shaped frame having disposed thereon a plurality of energy collecting elements. Attached to the leading edge of the moving structure frame is the first spoiler or pair of spoilers if the frame is of the split unit design. The leading spoiler is attached across each leading edge of the moving structure frame such that the center plane of the frame upon which the solar collecting elements are mounted substantially intercepts the midpoint of the widthwise dimension of the first spoiler. Attached to the trailing edge of the frame or to each unit of the moving structure frame if split units are used, is the second spoiler. In the preferred embodiment, the second pair of spoilers are mounted such that the center plane of the said frame upon which the solar collecting elements are mounted also substantially intercepts the midpoint of the widthwise dimension of said second pair of spoilers.
