Suspended bearer structure for solar generators comprises round steel tube rails for slide with fiber-reinforced slide forming with bearer air bearing for length-adjustable generator hangers.

摘要

Suspended bearing structure (11) has rail metal-faced for slide as reinforced by screw-fitted lightweight material tensioned in the direction of slide force on rail and far longer in this direction than at right angles to it. Reinforcement is by fiber, specifically carbon fiber, and the rail is round steel tube. Slide and structure (11) form an air bearing (13) and the slide has hangers (16) for solar generators and contains a gas guide (20) for the bearing (13). Two rails (12) stand parallel for several bearer structures (11) which can adjust lengthways and each have their own slide for a generator. Adjoining hangers (16) are linked by guides (14,19).
