This collector comprises a reflector (1) formed by a plurality of reflecting elements (6) engaged between consecutive frames (2). Each of the frames is formed by two members (7) moulded from Zanak and fixed to an aluminium beam (11) having a triangular cross-sectional shape. Each pair of members (7) defines arms (17) whereby the reflector is rotatively mounted on a fixed absorber tube (3). The latter is protected by a transparent hood (28) fixed on supports (4) disposed on each side of the reflector. A device (34, 35, 37) for adjusting the angular position of the reflector is provided at at least one end of the collector.

A solar energy collector comprising a troughlike concave reflector having an axis through the focus of the reflector, a heat absorber tube disposed along and coincident with said axis, a heat transfer fluid circulating in said tube, pivot means pivotably and detachably mounting said reflector on said heat absorber tube, said pivot means comprising frames carrying the reflector and spaced apart along said axis and including arms having end portions defining openings for receiving and removing said tube in a direction radially of said axis, and releasable locking means engaged in said openings for retaining said tube in said openings, said reflector being of cylindro-parabolical shape, said end portions of said arms defining a partly annular fork at the end of each arm and surrounding the absorber tube, and said locking means comprising an element of an insulating material locking each fork on the absorber tube, each frame comprising two identical members of moulded metal, each of which members having a curved side defining the shape of the reflector, said members being assembled in pairs so that the curved sides are in the extension of each other.
