Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The concentrating heat receiver ( 10 ) is provided with a casing ( 41 ) which has an opening portion ( 15 ) into which sunrays are made incident, a heat receiving portion ( 42 ) which is accommodated inside the casing ( 41 ) so that a working fluid flows therethrough and receive heat from sunrays made incident from the opening portion, thereby raising the temperature of the working fluid, and hanging members ( 61, 62 ) in which the upper end sides thereof are coupled to an upper angle ( 14 ) and the other end sides thereof are loosely inserted into through holes ( 44 a , 44 b ) of the casing ( 41 ), thereby supporting in a hanging manner the heat receiving portion ( 42 ) inside the casing ( 41 ).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A solar concentrating heat receiver comprising: a casing which is installed at a base portion to have an opening portion into which sunlight is made incident; a heat receiving portion which is accommodated inside the casing so that a working fluid flows therethrough and receives heat from sunlight made incident from the opening portion, thereby raising a temperature of the working fluid; and a hanging member in which one end of the heat receiving portion…
