Solar concentrator

Abstract

The invention relates to a novel design for a solar concentrator formed by: a first upper bushing, a second upper bushing, a third upper bushing, a fourth upper bushing, a fifth upper bushing, a sixth upper bushing, a first lower bushing, a second lower bushing, a third lower bushing, a first upper bar, a second upper bar, a third upper bar, a first lower bar, a second lower bar, a third lower bar, a first vertical bar, a second vertical bar, a third vertical bar, a first diagonal bar, a second diagonal bar, a third diagonal bar, a first mirror, a second mirror, a third mirror and a fourth mirror. The solar concentrator is formed by small flat mirrors which can be adjusted using nuts in order to obtain the desired parabolic curvature, thereby providing a higher concentration coefficient.
