PURPOSE: A robot ship using wave power is provided to store electric energy generated by the wave motion at a rear hull and photovoltaic arrays and to use the electric energy as a propelling force, thereby reducing thermal power energy. CONSTITUTION: A robot ship using wave power comprises a front hull(110), a rear hull(120), a hinge rotary shaft(130), a ring gear(140), a small driven gear(150), a DC generator(160), a storage battery(170), a DC motor, and photovoltaic arrays(210). The storage battery stores electric energy generating in the DC generator. The DC motor receives electricity from the storage battery to drive a rudder and a propeller(180) installed in a ship. The photovoltaic arrays are formed on the top of the front hull and the rear hull to convert the solar energy to the electric energy. A DC generator using fossil fuel is connected to the storage battery for auxiliary generation. |
