ABSTRACT:
The solar mirror apparatus has an elongate support frame on which resiliently flexible sheet metal mirrors (15) are secured in a parabolically curved arrangement, with an elongate solar radiation receiver (28) being mounted at the focal line of the sheet metal mirrors (15). The support frame is swivellable about an axis which extends parallel to the focal line of the parabola. The carrying frame has two spaced apart clamping section supports (11) disposed opposite and parallel to one another. The mirror plates are carried by parabolic webs (13) with the mirror plates being fitted shapewise on the parabolic edges (17) of the parabolic webs (12). The ends of the parabolic webs (12) which extend between the clamping section supports (11) are swivellably supported at the confronting sides of the clamping section supports (11) about swivel axes (14) which extend parallel to the longitudinal axes (13) of the clamping section supports (11). The clamping section supports (11) have an elongate abutment (16) which extends parallel to the swivel axis ( 14) at the side of the swivel axis facing the parabolic edges (17). The end edges of the mirror plates (15) contacting the abutment (16), whereby the mirror plates (15) are held in compression and their shape is determined by the parabolic webs (13).
