<p>A vertical motion wave power generator (10) having a flotation device (11), a vertical support structure (15) fixed to the ocean bottom (30), and a single power shaft (17) attached rotatably to the flotation device (11 ). By the use of a pair of one-way clutches (19, 22) the single power shaft (17) converts the up and down motion of ocean waves into continuous unidirectional rotational force to drive an electric generator (65). The power shaft (17), transmission (52), and generator (65) are all attached to the flotation device (11) and move up and down in unison with the flotation device (11 ). In an alternant embodiment a paddle wheel-driven horizontal wave generator system (70) is situated on the ocean shore for converting shore waves to unidirectional rotational force for generating power.</p> |
