WAVE POWER INSTALLATION (VERSIONS) Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC F03B13/12 

FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to renewable sources of energy, particular to wave power and to converting it into other kinds, mainly into electrical energy. Wave power installation consists of the first and the second horizontal interacting shafts installed on vertical poles and freely rotating; further installation consists of pontoons arranged in pairs and symmetrically relative to vertical poles, of bridged in pairs levers pivotally connected to corresponding pontoons, of the first and the second pinions rigidly fixed on the first and the second shafts and meshing with one another, of a step-up-gear and generator. N-number of overrunning clutches is installed on each shaft; hubs of clutches are stationary assembled on corresponding shafts. Socket sleeves are connected with upper ends of levers by means of flat hinges; lower ends of levers are tied with corresponding pontoons also with flat hinges. Distance between hinges of two parallel levers equals to distance between two horizontal shafts. When the socket sleeve of the upper clutch meshes the hub of the socket sleeve, the socket sleeve of the lower clutch comes out of meshing and vice-versa.

EFFECT: object of invention is increased efficiency and simplification of installation design.
