The wave energy point absorbing system comprises a framework with top and bottom plates defining a space with the top plate of the framework located out of and above calm water and the bottom plate of the framework located in and under calm water, with a point absorbing float contained within the framework with at least two guide rails extending through the float, which are rigidly secured to the top and bottom plates of the framework, and each guide rail is slidably mounted through two linear bearings to the float, one linear bearing located near the top of said float and the other linear bearing located near the bottom of said float and being operative to allow the float to move up and down due to wave action. |
