FLOATING ELEMENT OF A WAVE STATION

摘要

The invention relates to technology for producing electric energy by converting wave energy. The problem addressed by this invention is to ensure the possibility of rapidly changing the mass and displacement of working bodies (floating elements) of wave stations in order more efficiently to transmit wave energy of differing strength and frequency (interval) to a power converter (generator). The floating element of the wave station is a three-dimensional body which has closed cavities which do not communicate with the water and ensure buoyancy, and open cavities which are located in said closed cavities, communicate with the water below the water line and form, in the upper part thereof, air chambers which communicate with the atmosphere with the aid of two air ducts which are equipped with controllable electromagnetic inlet and outlet valves.
