| 20090212571 | WAVE POWER SYSTEM FOR EXTRACTING SIMULTANEOUSLY BOTH POTENTIAL AND KINETIC ENERGY AT VARIABLE SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHTS AND PERIODS - A wave energy conversion system or device includes a float and base on top of which there is a power take-off system. The float, its base and the machine room are inserted in a main column supported by legs and corresponding leg supports on the bottom floor in shallow waters (seas or lakes). In deeper waters, the main column may be supported by column supports attached to an underwater float. The machine room is separated of the float frame through a rotary joint which allows the float and base to rotate in any horizontal direction while maintaining the machine room fixed in the same horizontal direction. The rotary joint separating the float frame and the machine room also allows for the vertical up and down movement when interacting with incoming waves. The distance between the machine room and the float frame is always the same. The device includes flaps or blades for the absorption of kinetic energy derived from the back and forth movement of water generated by waves. The device extracts potential energy of the wave from the up and down movement of the floating structure through a power take-off system in the machine room. | 08-27-2009 |
