Embodiment Construction
[0031]Referring now to FIGS. 3-12, one embodiment of a solar energy collection system according to this invention is illustrated which may comprise several individual reflector units 30 oriented side-by-side, as discussed below with reference to FIG. 12. The reflector unit 30 is initially generally described, followed by a discussion of individual aspects of the design.
[0032]The reflector unit 30 includes a frame 32 having opposed side walls 34, 36, and opposed end walls 38, 40 connected together in a generally rectangular shape as depicted in FIG. 3. The walls 34-40 are preferably formed of aluminum or other light-weight, weather resistant and durable material. The frame 32 is reinforced by a truss structure 42, a portion of which is shown in FIGS. 3 and 12, which is also preferably formed of aluminum or similar material. The truss structure 42 and frame 32 may be supported above ground level by pylons 44 secured on a foundation such as concrete footers (not shown) that can support...
