WAVE ENERGY PLANT Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC F03B13/16 

FIELD: power industry.

SUBSTANCE: wave energy plant includes frame 1, float 4, stock 3 attached to it and having cylindrical and screw parts, fastener 11 preventing rotation of the stock about the vertical axis, housing 5 attached to the frame with rotor 6 located inside it, which converts back-and-forth movement of the stock to rotational movement of the rotor and flange 7, on which magnets 8 rotating together with rotor 6 are fixed. Float 4 is separated by partition wall 19 into upper sealed cavity 20 and lower cavity 21 that is interconnected by means of three-position electromagnetic pneumatic distributor 14 with atmosphere and connected to a compressed air source, thus providing control of volume of water entering the lower part of the float through hole 22.

EFFECT: improving electric power generation efficiency as a result of quick change in weight and adjustment of settlement of the float.
