WAVE POWER PLANT Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC F03B13/14 F03G7/08 

FIELD: electrical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: wave power plant contains at least one float 1 or several interconnected floats. The float 1 is shaped asymmetrically relative to the waves propagation direction; alternatively, the interconnected floats are positioned asymmetrical relative to the waves propagation direction. The said asymmetrical shape or the said asymmetrical position results in a circular motion of the float 1 or the element linking the interconnected floats in response to the pushing action of a series of waves propagating in the said direction. The power plant additionally contains elements for converting circular movement into rotation for extraction of energy.

EFFECT: conversion of waves reciprocating movement immediately into continuous rotation.
