Abstract
A funnel jet electric generator includes at least one funnel jet each having a funnel body defining a channel, a funnel extension tube connected to a first end portion of the funnel body for capturing a wave crest, and a nozzle connected to a second end portion of the funnel body, wherein the wave crest is guided into the funnel body along the channel and projects out through the nozzle to produce a water jet. The kinetic energy of the water jet is transmitted to the electric generator for producing electricity through the power transmission system.

A funnel jet for transforming wave power into kinetic energy of water jet that is used for driving an electric generator to generate electricity, comprising:
- a funnel body defining a channel,
- a funnel extension tube connected to a first end portion of said funnel body for capturing a wave crest, and
- a nozzle connected to a second end portion of said funnel body, wherein the wave crest is guided into said funnel body along said channel and projects out through said nozzle to produce the water jet.
