Sun-light-redirector useful in day-lighting, photo-voltaics and solar heating

Abstract

A pump assembly including an electric motor, a pumping element mounted in a pump chamber, the motor being connected to the pumping element such that activation of the motor causes movement of the pumping element which in turn causes pumping of fluid in the pump chamber, and a motor controller which includes at least one electrical or electronic component and which controls operation of the motor, wherein at least one electrical or electronic component of the motor controller is mounted on or in a wall of the pump chamber.

Description

technical field [0001] The automatic sunlight redirector of the present invention includes means for redirecting sunlight to a user selected location by arranging the incident sun rays, the target line, and the mirror axis as sides of an isosceles triangle. Background technique [0002] Solar energy has been recognized for nearly three decades as a potential source of energy for a variety of purposes. Two known manifestations of solar energy—light and heat—are being converted into useful energy. Light is converted to electricity by photovoltaic cells and heat is converted by thermal power plants for heaters or for electricity generation. [0003] As we all know, although photovoltaic cells have various advantages, the cost is very high. For this reason, progress in this field has been less than ideal. [0004] In countries between latitudes 45 degrees north and 45 degrees south, daylight is abundant and can be used for many purposes including lighting the interior of buil...
