Abstract:
A converging solar module comprising:a plurality of converging lenses for converging sunlight;a plurality of solar cells each arranged where a converged spot is formed, the converged spot being formed at a focal point of each of the plurality of converging lens or a vicinity thereof;a cell stare for carrying the solar cells;a position detection sensor provided to the cell stage in a position corresponding to one of the plurality of converging lenses;driving means for moving either one of the cell stage or the plurality of converging lenses such that a converged beam from the plurality of converging lenses falls on the center of the position detection sensor to form a converged spot thereon, the driving means comprising a pressing member which is driven by hydro-pressure; andwherein the cell stage is movable in the horizontal direction, supported on a pair of adjacent side edges by elastic members, and provided on another pair of adjacent side edges with the driving means.
