Abstract
A solar light collecting mirror is configured such that a protruding section of a substrate, using as a reference position the position of an inscribed circle in a reflective section, impels the rear surface of the reflective section further on the outside in the radial direction than the reference position. As a result, the surface of the reflective section further on the outside in the radial direction than the reference position bends towards the surface side in the Z direction.
Claims14
A solar light collecting mirror comprising:
- a polygonal deformable reflective section;
- and
- a polygonal base board,
- wherein the base board includes a protruding section configured to bias a back surface of the reflective section at a radial direction outside of a reference position defined by a position of an inscribed circle of the reflective section, whereby a front surface of the reflective section at a radial direction outside of the reference position is configured to curve toward the front surface side in a Z direction.
