FIELD: power engineering.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to renewable energy sources and can be used for wave-measuring and navigation buoys. Installation for energy recovery of sea buoys comprises floating hull, in which there is a support in the form of frame 1 with guides 2, upon which travels inertial body 3 with elastic suspension. Suspension is equipped with two units 4 installed in upper part of frame 1. In lower part of frame 1 there is a system of air damping that includes case 10, piston 11 and outlet 12 with variable diameter. One unit 4 is connected with generator 13. Accumulator 16 is connected with generator 13 via transformer 14 with variable transformation ratio and diode rectifier 15. Computer 17 is connected with generator 13 output and accumulator 16. Step motor 18 connected with computer 17 and device 19 for changing the outlet diameter of air damping system.
EFFECT: invention intended for higher efficiency, higher reliability, and longer service life of installation due to reduced wear of mechanical parts and elimination of battery recharging.
