Abstract
The present invention concerns an apparatus for generating electric power using wave force. The apparatus is composed of a floater attached to a lever which moves up and down with the motion of wave, which transfers the oscillatory movement to a driving shaft to rotate a gear wheel for generating a rotation force that is transferred to a flywheel connected to a shaft to drive a large pulley which carries a flat belt that is engaged with a small pulley for transmitting motion and power to activate an electric generator to run and yield electricity, and small gears to rotate on the shaft and to reverse the direction of the rotation force of the gear wheel causing the lever to oscillate.
Claims1
An apparatus for generating electric power using wave force, which comprising a case enclosing a structure (1) being composed of a gear wheel (4), a flywheel (10), a large pulley (5), small gears (7)(8)(15), one-way bearing clutch (6)(9), a driving shaft (3), shafts (11)(14), bushings (2)(12) (13)(29)(33), a belt (16), a small pulley (17), brackets (20)(21)(22), a pivot (19), a bolt (23), connecting rods (24)(25), nuts (26)(27), and an electric generator (18);
- a lever (28)
- a floater (35);
- and
- a door (40);
- characterized in that the floater (35) is attached by a locking means (36) to one end of the lever (28) which is connected by pins (39) to the case of the apparatus, and wherein each side of said lever (28) is fixed by a pin (39) to the upper end of an articulated arm (38)(37) being situated of each side of said case, and wherein its lower end fits with a driving shaft (3) through bushings (2) for the connection of said driving shaft (3), lever seals and bushings (29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34),
- said floater (35) drives the lever (28) to move up and down with the motion of wave, which transfers the oscillatory movement to said driving shaft (3) to rotate said gear wheel (4) for generating a rotation force that is transferred to said flywheel (10) connected to said shaft (11) to drive said large pulley (5) which carries said flat belt (16) that is engaged with said mall pulley (17) for transmitting motion and power to activate said electric generator (18) to run and yield electricity, small gears (7)(8) engaging a one-way bearing clutch (6)(9) to rotate on said shaft (11) through bushings (12) for the connection of said shaft (11), a small gear (15) fitting with said small gear (7) to rotate on said shaft (14) through bushings (13) for the connection of said shaft (14) and to reverse the direction of the rotation force of said gear wheel (4) causing the lever (28) to oscillate, and means for connecting said electric generator (18) to said structure (1), characterized in that a pivot (19) is engaged therethrough a pair of brackets mounted backward said electric generator and brackets (21) mounted to said structure (1), a connecting rod (25) is engaged therethrough a pair of brackets (20), a connecting rod (24) is engaged therethrough a pair of brackets (22), and wherein a bolt (23) is engaged therethrough hole being formed therein each said connecting rod (25)(24) and fixed thereby nuts (26)(27).
