<p>A device for converting the energy of flowing water, particularly of rivers, into energy, particularly mechanical or electrical, whose rotor system (1), contains a rotor (2) flexibly connected, via joints (35) to at least one other rotor (3). The rotor system (1) is immersed, preferentially completely, in a flowing water current, particularly a river, and the torque of the rotor system (1) is relayed to a receiver (4) wherein the length of the rotor system (1) is no smaller than the greatest rotor diameter of the rotor system (1). The receiver (4) may be, for example, a generator (18) producing an electrical current. The receiver may also be attached for example to a floating device (10), anchored to the bottom or the shore of the basin. The structural characteristics of the device make it possible to use the device in convoluted and relatively shallow rivers (or streams), where known devices may not be used. This greatly increases the range of applicability of the present invention.</p> |
