Abstract
A wave power generation apparatus is disclosed. A wave power generation apparatus according to one embodiment can comprise: a floating body floating on the surface of the sea; a power transmission part, which is connected to the floating body so as to receive power generated according to the movement of the floating body, and moors the floating body on the surface of the sea; and a mooring angle adjustment module for adjusting the mooring angle of the floating body for the power transmission part according to the state of the waves acting on the floating body.
Claims13
A wave power generation apparatus, comprising:
- a floating body configured to float on a surface of sea waters;
- a power transfer member connected to the floating body and configured to receive power generated from a movement of the floating body and moor the floating body on the surface of sea waters;
- and
- a mooring angle adjustment module configured to adjust a mooring angle of the floating body with respect to the power transfer member based on a state of waves that act on the floating body, and
- wherein the mooring angle adjustment module comprises:
- a movable member connected to the floating body and configured to perform a
- translational motion in an outward direction of the floating body, wherein the power transfer member is fixed to a seabed below the floating body via the movable member.
A wave power generation apparatus, comprising:
- a floating body configured to float on a surface of sea waters;
- a power transfer member of which one side is connected to the floating body and another side is fixed to a seabed below the floating body to allow the floating body
- to be moored on the surface of sea waters;
- a mooring angle adjustment module connected to the floating body and configured to adjust a mooring angle of the floating body with respect to the power transfer member;
- and
- a generation portion connected to the power transfer member and configured to
- generate power through kinetic energy of the floating body, and
- wherein the mooring angle adjustment module comprises three movable members disposed separately from each other along a circumference of the floating body and configured to move toward an outer side of the floating body, wherein the power transfer member is provided as a plurality of power transfer members, and the power transfer members are fixed to the seabed via the three movable members respectively.
