  • Patent number: 9864181
    Abstract: The invention relates to a solar concentrator comprising a solid body consisting of a transparent material that has a light coupling surface and a light decoupling surface, the solid body having a light guide part that tapers towards the light decoupling surface, being located between the light coupling surface and the light decoupling surface and being delimited by a light guide surface between the light coupling surface and the light decoupling surface, the light guide surface merging into the light decoupling surface with a constant first derivation. The invention also relates to a method for the production of a solar concentrator, wherein the transparent material is precision-molded between the molds.

  • Publication number: 20130160852
    Abstract: The invention relates to a solar concentrator, comprising a solid body made of a transparent material, which has a light coupling surface and a convex light decoupling surface, wherein the solid body has a light guide part between the light coupling surface and the convex light decoupling surface, wherein said light guide part is tapered in the direction of the convex light decoupling surface. The invention further relates to a production method, wherein the material is precision-molded between two molds.

  • Publication number: 20120217663
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a solar concentrator from a transparent material. The solar concentrator comprises a light coupling surface and a light decoupling surface, the solid body comprises a supporting frame with an outer edge between the light coupling surface and the convex light decoupling surface and the transparent material is precision moulded between a first mould and a second mould to form the solar concentrator in such a way that the outer edge is moulded or formed without any or with only partial contact with said mould.
