Abstract
There is provided a power generation device that generates electricity using a potential energy of a fluid raised to a predetermined height position by a wave force, the device including: a housing (1) that floats, the housing (1) including a front side opening portion (16) for taking a wave into an inside of the housing (1) on a front side of the housing (1); a float accommodated in the housing (1); a feeding device that feeds the circulation fluid toward the predetermined height position based on a wave force received by the float due to the wave taken into the inside of the housing (1) through the front side opening portion (16); a power generation unit that generates the electricity; and a suppressing member that suppresses a swing of the housing (1).
Claims16
A power generation system for generating electricity using a potential energy of a fluid raised to a predetermined height position by a wave force, the system comprising:
- a system-side accommodation member that floats, the system-side accommodation member including an intake opening portion for taking a wave into an inside of the system-side accommodation member on a front side of the system-side accommodation member;
- a floating body accommodated in the system-side accommodation member;
- a feeding device that feeds the fluid toward the predetermined height position based on a wave force received by the floating body due to the wave taken into the inside of the system-side accommodation member through the intake opening portion;
- and
- a power generation unit that generates the electricity using the potential energy of the fluid raised to the predetermined height position.
