Collapsible light concentration device

A collapsible solar collector for collecting solar rays and having a longitudinal axis, the device comprising:

• an absorber housing;
• first and second body portions forming reflector support members each having an inner reflective surface, an outer surface a proximal end and a distal end the first and second body portions being pivotally coupled to one another and when the first and second body portions are in an open position an inflection point is created which is disposed at the intersection of the left and right reflectors and the inflection point of the reflector support members makes tangential contact with the absorber housing;
• and
• the collector positionable between at least a first operative open position, wherein the distal ends of the first and second body portions are separated, and a second substantially closed position, wherein the distal ends of the first and second body portions are positioned substantially adjacent to one another and the first and second body portions substantially face one another.
