Brief Patent Description - Full Patent Description - Patent Application Claims
[0001] This application is a continuation-in-part of my U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/721,235 filed Nov. 22, 2000 and claims the benefit thereof under 35 U.S.C. .sctn. 120. [0002] The present invention relates to a method for effecting solar radiation emanating toward Earth and to a joint for pivoting a structure. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] Light may behave like a wave and, at the same time, behave like a particle. This invention subscribes to neither theory but generally this invention may be at least partially understood on the basis of the wave features of solar energy. For example, this invention "fights fire with fire." It is believed that by redirecting solar radiation to form focal hot points between the Earth and the sun, chances are increased that solar radiation passing through the focal point or focal locations may be reduced (or concentrated) or dissipated or deflected. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0004] A feature of the present invention is a method for effecting solar radiation. The method includes the steps of providing first and second reflectors in space, choosing a location between the Earth and the sun, orienting the reflectors to focus on a focal location, monitoring whether radiation passes through or is deflected by the focal location, and adjusting the reflectors so as to change the effect of the focal location on the solar radiation. [0005] Another feature of the present invention is to provide an array of reflectors to increase the number of focal locations and/or to increase the amount of light energy directed to one focal location. [0006] Another feature of the present invention is to provide an array of arrays of reflectors so as to further increase the number of focal locations and/or increase the amount of light energy directed to one focal location. [0007] Another feature of the present invention is, using an array of arrays of reflectors, the method of increasing the height, width or depth of the focal location. [0008] Another feature of the present invention is to provide a three dimensional focal location such that solar radiation passes through a number of focal points or locations, thereby increasing the possibility of altering or redirecting or reflecting or impacting solar radiation. [0009] Another feature of the present invention is to provide a focal location relatively close to the sun to provide a relatively large "blacked out" portion on Earth. [0010] Another feature of the present invention is to provide a focal location relatively close to the Earth to provide a relatively small "blacked out" portion on Earth. [0011] Another feature of the present invention is a joint that rotates a structure about a first axis and about a second axis, where a first input force for rotating the structure about the first axis is exercised at the joint and where a second input force for rotating the structure about the second axis is exercised at the same joint. [0012] An advantage of the present invention is that solar radiation is controlled at a location in space prior to reaching the Earth. [0013] Another advantage of the present invention is that solar radiation may be reduced. [0014] Another advantage of the present invention is that solar radiation may be concentrated. [0015] Another advantage of the present invention is that solar radiation may be deflected prior to reaching Earth. [0016] Another advantage is that the reflector having the joint of the present invention minimizes the mathematical calculations needed for positioning the reflector. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS [0017] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a reflector where the reflector includes a radiation member such as a reflecting surface, a base, and a single joint between the base and radiation member. [0018] FIG. 2 is a perspective cutaway view of the reflector of FIG. 1. [0019] FIG. 3 shows an array of reflectors where each reflector is the reflector of FIG. 1. [0020] FIG. 4 is a diagrammatic view of a method of altering solar radiation where the method employs a multiple number of the reflector arrays of FIG. 3 positioned around the Earth circumferentially in space. [0021] FIG. 5 is a diagrammatic view of a method of altering solar radiation where the method employs a multiple number of the reflector arrays of FIG. 3 positioned on one side of the Earth circumferentially in space.
