Description

[0001] From GB 2 586 003 A, D1, a device for generating energy through a monocrystalline and / or polycrystalline silicon coating on a workpiece is known. The device comprises a module in which the monocrystalline and / or polycrystalline silicon coating is installed. The inner chamber of the module transports solar photons by reflection into the chamber with the monocrystalline and / or polycrystalline silicon coating, where they are then effectively converted into energy.

[0002] The workpiece according to the invention is to be divided into 3 modules, with modules 1 and 3 achieving a 360° rotation over the horizon with a rotational movement.

[0003] The design promises a cost-effective solution through a mono- and / or polycrystalline silicon coating installed in module 2 and with the assistance of modules 1 and 3 and their internal mirroring (F=r / 2).

[0004] The inner chambers of modules 1 and 3 transport photons by reflection into the chamber of module 2, where they are then effectively converted into energy.

[0005] How this mirroring is achieved in chambers 1 and 3 (gold plating, silver plating, chrome plating and / or grinding and polishing) is explained by the formula F=r / 2.

[0006] The technical dimensions of the workpiece are variable.

[0007] Module 2 has a cardanic bearing at each end, which enables a connection to the respective rotary ball bearing.

[0008] Energy losses and fluctuations are eliminated through further developments and future innovations.

[0009] The module 2 shown has an assumed largest diameter of 4m, with the mirrored chamber having a diameter of 3.20m.

[0010] Modules 1 and 3 have an assumed largest diameter of 3m, with the mirrored chambers having a diameter of 2m.

[0011] Modules 1, 2 and 3 are each wrapped with a spiral cooling system that serves to exchange heat and prevent overheating.

[0012] Modules 1 and 3 are each aligned exactly towards the sun!!!

[0013] The entire workpiece should and must be made of A2 or A4 stainless steel.

[0014] The cavities between modules and chambers are reserved for the cooling systems.
