Abstract
Abstract A solar heat receiving and utilizing device including a main housing with a Sun-ray receiving window with a main channel into which the heat rays are conducted, and ultimately directed through the channel to outlet windows for heating boilers and similar heat using devices. It uses both one-way influx windows about a main channel, and also glass prisms to conduct the Solar rays and bend them into the main channel. Heat insulating lagging is used around the main housing to block incidental heat escape during conversion from Sun rays to utilizable heat.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
210 words
A solar heat receiving and emergizing device comprising main housing means, wall means in said main housing means for defining a main channel chamber, first window means in said main housing means for receiving solar rays from the Sun for said main channel chamber, and outflux means connectable to a heat ray receiving means for utilizing said received solar heat; wherein said main housing means includes reflective mirror means carried by said main housing means for reflecting said solar rays received from the Sun, said reflecting mirror means being disposed on the wall means of said main housing means, and one-way mirror means in said first window means for conducting said solar rays therethrough into said main channel chamber and for flocking return flow of said rays through said one-way mirror means and out of said main channel chamber, heat insulating laggaing means, said heat insulating lagging means carried by said main housing means for blocking substantial heat egress and outflow of heat from said main channel chamber therethrough, and said heat outflux means including heat outflux conduit means connected to said main channel chamber and connectable to a heat utilizing means for transferring the heat contained in said main channel chamber into said heat utilizing means for use thereby.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
210 words
A solar heat receiving and emergizing device comprising main housing means, wall means in said main housing means for defining a main channel chamber, first window means in said main housing means for receiving solar rays from the Sun for said main channel chamber, and outflux means connectable to a heat ray receiving means for utilizing said received solar heat; wherein said main housing means includes reflective mirror means carried by said main housing means for reflecting said solar rays received from the Sun, said reflecting mirror means being disposed on the wall means of said main housing means, and one-way mirror means in said first window means for conducting said solar rays therethrough into said main channel chamber and for flocking return flow of said rays through said one-way mirror means and out of said main channel chamber, heat insulating laggaing means, said heat insulating lagging means carried by said main housing means for blocking substantial heat egress and outflow of heat from said main channel chamber therethrough, and said heat outflux means including heat outflux conduit means connected to said main channel chamber and connectable to a heat utilizing means for transferring the heat contained in said main channel chamber into said heat utilizing means for use thereby.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
58 words
