FIELD: electric energy.
SUBSTANCE: device for accumulating electrical energy in an aquatic environment contains a power unit located on a floating craft, a power take-off unit made in the form of an electric current generator and an electric motor, and a control unit. The power unit contains a working element made in the form of at least one suspension of the main and additional loads. Each weight from the suspension is attached to one cable, which has its own reel, which is made with the ability to connect/disconnect from the clutch with the shaft. Cables of the underlying weights pass through the holes made in the weights, emerging onto the surface of the floating craft through a common guide and connected to the load lowering/lifting reels. A shock absorber is located above each load. The weights are made of a material with a specific gravity greater than the specific gravity of water. The rotors of the electric generator and the electric motor are connected by a common shaft, on which a flywheel, lowering and lifting reels are alternately located, between which gearboxes with hydraulic torque transmission are located on the shaft.
EFFECT: invention is aimed at simplifying the design with a high level of safety.
