TIDAL-WAVE POWER PLANT Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC F03B17/06 F03B13/12 

FIELD: electricity.

SUBSTANCE: tidal-wave power plant is made on the basis of two turbines 1 and 2. Each of turbines 1 and 2 comprises at least two disks 3, connected to each other by axes 4, on which blades 5 are hingedly fixed, displacement of which is limited by main and additional fixators 6 and 7. Both turbines 1 and 2 are hingedly installed on a single axis 8, fixed in a frame 9, a part of which is fixed on the bottom, and the other part includes a site 10 on the surface, where a reducer 11 and a generator 12 are placed. In one turbine the main fixators 6 are arranged at the right side of the blades 5, while in the other turbine the main fixators 6 are located at the left side of the blades 5. Adjacent discs 3 of turbines 1 and 2 are equipped with main conical gears, between which there are additional conical gears hingedly fixed on an axis 14, which is perpendicular to the single axis 8 of turbines 1 and 2. A power takeoff shaft 13 reaching a site 10 on the surface is stiffly fixed to one of additional conical gears.

EFFECT: provision of higher efficiency factor due to operation of turbines in three squares and at any direction of a flow, with simultaneous preservation of design simplicity.
