PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide ocean current power generating equipment with high self-stability in the ocean that has improved power generation efficiency by disposing a power generator avoiding a position on an extension of a rotary shaft of a turbine.SOLUTION: Ocean current power generating equipment includes: a turbine part 1 in which a turbine 10 that rotates by ocean current energy is disposed at the end on the upstream side, and which incorporates a turbine rotary shaft 30 connected to the turbine 10; a central body 2a that incorporates a power generator 20 disposed avoiding a position on an extension of the turbine rotary shaft 30; and a gear mechanism 3 connected to the turbine 10 that transmits energy by the rotation of the turbine 10 to the power generator 20. The turbine part 1 is disposed in a pair, each of the pair being at the same distance from the central body 2a, and the respective turbines 10 rotate in the directions opposite to each other. |
