Abstract:
1. An energy supplying device for energy collection, energy transfer, and storing energy, the energy supplying device comprising: a self-supporting elongated substantially hollow profile comprising at least one wall formation defining the substantially hollow profile into at least one first elongated cavity produced by extrusion of the profile, the first cavity having a longitudinal extent in a direction of the extrusion, the first cavity configured to provide space for at least one medium, the medium being air or fluid, to be circulated or to be stored in the energy supplying device; the at least one wall formation comprising plastic or rubber material with reinforcing fibers incorporated, the at least one wall formation configured as an actively supporting structure positioned to support loads and at the same time configured as a part of a structural element, and the at least one wall formation including at least one opening configured to provide communication for the at least one medium; and the actively supporting structure has a section transverse to the direction of extrusion, the section comprising at least one beam formation constructed as an I-beam, T-beam, V-beam, X-beam or Y-beam, the beam formation comprising an entirety or a part of the elongated profile and configured to be assembled with at least one intermediate element arranged separately in the direction of extrusion; an elongated box formation having a second elongated cavity extending parallel to the at least one first elongated cavity; wherein the medium is at least circulated in the at least one first elongated cavity and in the second elongated cavity; an inlet to the device configured to receive the medium into the device and an outlet from the device configured to drain off the medium from the device while circulation is taking place in a closed circulating system; the box formation has an underside, two long sides, an upper side and two opposite ends; a thickness of the box formation is smaller than its length and width; the underside and the upper side comprise parts of the beam formation and elements for creating exposure surfaces for absorbing or releasing the energy via the medium; a heat insulating layer positioned to line the first and second cavities and configured to reduce energy circulation through the bottom at its wall formations, said heat insulating layer comprising frigolite, rock wool or glass wool; and a sealing layer configured to protect the heat insulating layer against action of the medium.
