Wave-powered electricity generator

Abstract

This invention is a wave powered electricity-generating mechanism which utilizes the fluctuations of multiple pontoons and ratchets' direction control to integrate various gear speeds into a high speed in order to drive an electricity generator. There are low, medium, and high speed gear sets. Low speed is for a quick start, higher speeds are to adopt lower speeds. The highest speed can be calculated in advance by adjusting the number of dynamic units, gear ratios, and number of transmission phases of gear sets in order to keep a designated output speed. This mechanism does not need to be fastened to the coast. Due to the independence feature of each dynamic unit, the number of dynamic units can be adjusted to meet various power output requirements.
