WAVE POWER GENERATION APPARATUS

摘要

The present invention relates to an apparatus for generating power using wave energy, wherein a plurality of wave-power rotary shafts rotated according to the upward and downward movements of floats are provided at a fixed shaft fixed to an offshore structure to convert wave energy into electric energy, and electricity is generated by rotating a rotary shaft of a generator using the rotational force thereof. A plurality of floats (70a, 70b, 70c, 70d) are set afloat on the sea to generate buoyancy, a plurality of float connection bars (75a, 75b, 75c, 75d) are respectively connected to the plurality of floats (70a, 70b, 70c, 70d), and a plurality of wave-power rotary shafts (50a, 50b, 50c, 50d) are rotated by upward and downward movements of the plurality of floats. The rotation of the plurality of wave-power rotary shafts (50a, 50b, 50c, 50d) is transmitted to a rotary shaft (20) of a generator by front and rear rotational force transmission units (40, 45), the plurality of wave-power rotary shafts (50a, 50b, 50c, 50d) and the rotary shaft (20) of the generator are supported by a pair of left and right support plates (30a, 30b), and the pair of support plates (30, 30) is supported by the fixed shaft (10) and the fixed shaft (10) is fixed to the fixed structure so as to form a unit module (100). The generator converts the upward and downward linear movements into rotational movements according to the waves by configuring at least two unit modules (100) as one set (200), can be economically provided without limitations on installation capacity and installation location by easily increasing and reducing the size of the generator according to the increase and reduction of the number of sets, and can increase the conversion efficiency of wave power energy into electric energy by maximizing the generating capacity within the same volume.
