Abstract
Motorized rotational drive system (8) for rotating a framework about an axis of rotation, preferably a horizontal axis of rotation, for a solar collector tracker support system, said motorized system comprising: two ring gear sectors (80) extending in two planes orthogonal to the axis of rotation and provided with means of attachment to said framework; a transmission shaft (82) supporting two pinions (81) in mesh with the corresponding ring gear sectors (80) for synchronized rotation of said ring gear sectors (80); and a motorized drive means for driving the rotation of said transmission shaft (82).
Claims9
A motorized rotational drive system for rotating a framework around an axis of rotation, for a solar collector tracker support system, said motorized system including:
- two ring gear sectors extending in two planes orthogonal to the axis of rotation, and provided with means of attachment to said framework;
- a transmission shaft supporting, in particular on both of its ends, two drive pinions in mesh with the corresponding ring gear sectors for synchronized rotation of said ring gear sectors;
- and
- a motorized drive means for driving the rotation of said transmission shaft.
