Patent ·
OSTI ID:6306025
A horizontally mounted solar collector for collecting solar energy utilizing a vertical deflector assembly, a stationary reflector and a collector. The deflector assembly contains a plurality of vanes which change the direction of the solar energy to the vertical, while constantly keeping the same side of the deflector facing the sun. The vertical rays are then reflected off the stationary reflector and are then absorbed by the collector.
