Abstract:
1. A solar radiation reflecting apparatus comprising: a plurality of arms which are disposed parallel to each other; a plurality of driven mechanisms which are respectively driven by the plurality of arms; a plurality of reflectors which are respectively rotated by the plurality of driven mechanisms; a plurality of reflective direction directing members which direct respective prescribed reflective directions for the plurality of reflectors and which are respectively connected to the plurality of driven mechanisms; a common link for simultaneously rotating the plurality of arms; and a driving mechanism for driving the common link so that the plurality of arms are caused to be parallel to an incident direction of a solar radiation, wherein the plurality of driven mechanisms which are simultaneously driven by the driving mechanism through the common link and the plurality of arms respectively rotate the plurality of reflectors so that the plurality of reflectors reflect the solar radiation toward the respective prescribed reflective directions, wherein at least one of the plurality of driven mechanisms includes a first guide member and a second guide member, and wherein the corresponding reflector is disposed parallel to a plane including the first guide member and the second guide member.
