Device for converting sea wave energy into electrical energy

摘要

A device for converting sea wave energy into electrical energy comprises a floating platform carrying a pulley which is connected through a free-wheel coupling and a speed multiplier to a drive shaft of an electrical generator, on which a flywheel is mounted. An anchor cable passes over the pulley and suspends at its free end an immersed counterweight so that vertical motion of the platform in the sea causes rotation of the pulley and drives the generator continuously.
