APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR COLLECTING AND DISTRIBUTING RADIATION

摘要

A system and method for collecting and distributing generated and/or solar radiation. A pulsed distribution subsystem combining a generated radiation source with a solar radiation collector is provided. Radiation from the pulsed distribution subsystem is provided to one or more discrete distribution systems; the discrete distributions systems transmit and distribute radiation, such as visible light, to one or more end use points in a facility.

主权项

1. A solar radiation collection and distribution system comprising:
a pulsed distribution system comprising:
a generated radiation source;a collector for collecting solar radiation;a concentrator lens for concentrating the generated radiation and/or the collected radiation into a central radiation beam directed onto a rotatable reflective surface for reflecting said central radiation beam from said reflective surface;a motor for rotating said reflecting surface to direct said central radiation beam through 360 degrees toward a plurality of input targets for collecting radiations of said central radiation beam, wherein said input targets are comprised of a plurality of fiber optic cables or optical tubings for transferring the radiations of said central radiation beam to at least one discrete distribution system; anda photo sensor for measuring the intensity of said central radiation beam reflected from said reflective surface.
