Solar collector-skylight assembly
Abstract
A solar collector-skylight assembly having movable parabolic concentrators wherein, in one position the parabolic concentrators direct solar energy to a collector to heat fluid circulating therethrough to thereby provide a solar heater; and when the concentrators are moved to another position, the assembly functions as a skylight wherein the solar energy is allowed to pass through the collector, to thereby illuminate the interior of a building upon which the solar collector-skylight assembly is mounted.
