Apparatus for converting movement into energy, comprising a buoyant or floating body fully (1,9,11) submerged in a fluid medium. The buoyant body is supported in the fluid by a buoyancy or similar force acting in a first direction. A connecting or mooring line connects the buoyant body (1,9,11) to a pivot point displaced from the buoyant body in the direction from which the buoyancy or similar force acts on the buoyant body, and formed by a counter-weight (2). The apparatus also includes at least one power or energy take-off line (3) separate from the connecting or mooring line to convert movement of the buoyant body into energy. |
