| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to an apparatus, suitable for generating energy in an aquatic environment. A preferred embodiment has at least two water piston assemblies connected to a power transfer system, such as a crankshaft or a rack and pinion drive. Each water piston assembly has a water container that slides within a casing. The casing controls the presence of water within the piston assemblies though a system of doors that opens and closes to assist with water intake and expulsion within the water container. Furthermore, the water container has ports which allow water to drain from the water container onto a water exit assembly. The water is then preferably channeled toward a generator or a turbine that converts the kinetic energy of the water flow into an electrical energy. |
