Driving device utilizing solar heat

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To efficiently and rotatably drive a load by heating the air in a passage having a lower passage approximately along a horizontal direction and a vertical passage approximately along a vertical direction by solar heat and raising the temperature of the air. CONSTITUTION:A body 1 becomes a crest shape of longitudinal section at the central part 3 sequentially reducing in diameter toward the upward direcion at the outside disc-shaped part 2, and is formed at the outer peripheral surface 1' with a black coating to form a heat receiving surface. A plurality of stationary impellers 4 and rotary impellers 5 are alternately laminated on the top end of the body 1, and guides 6 are provided at the top. Solar heat is passed through a transparent cover 7 to operate on the heat receiving surface, thereby heating the air in the passages 151, 152, 153 to high temperature. The air is sequentially flowed in the respective passages, the impeller 5 is rotated, and is transmitted to a generator 26.
