[0002] A photothermal integrator is a device that uses solar energy to convert light into heat. The collector is responsible for absorbing solar energy and converting it into thermal energy, and then converting the thermal energy into electrical energy or other forms of energy through a thermal energy conversion system. The photothermal integrator has the advantages of high efficiency, environmental protection, and sustainability. Therefore, the photothermal integrator has broad application prospects in the field of solar energy utilization.

[0003] The existing solar thermal integrator cannot adjust the angle. The altitude and azimuth of the sun will change with time and geographical location.

For example, the solar collector disclosed in the application number CN201420322666.4 has a fixed collector angle and cannot be adjusted according to the angle of the sun's radiation. As a result, it is impossible to maintain the optimal angle with the sun, resulting in low solar energy absorption efficiency and inability to effectively transmit heat energy to where it is needed, thereby reducing the utilization rate of heat energy. If the heat energy cannot be effectively utilized, the energy-saving effect and energy utilization efficiency of the solar thermal integrator will also be affected.
