Abstract

Un aparato convertidor de energía de las olas que comprende al menos dos miembros (1, 2) mutuamente conectados por medios conectores (4), móviles para permitir el desplazamiento mutuo de los miembros (1, 2) en respuesta a las olas en el agua donde el aparato está ubicado, el aparato además comprende medios de conversión de energía (6) para convertir el movimiento de los medios conectores (4) en energía eléctrica, y medios para almacenar y/o transportar a algún otro lugar la energía producida, caracterizándose el aparato por que los miembros (1, 2) son miembros no flotantes completamente sumergidos con lo que el aparato, de manera integral, tiene una flotabilidad neutral, se proveen medios para mantener la posición de cada uno de dichos miembros sumergidos esencialmente en reposo con respecto al agua circundante con la cual están en contacto directo, de modo que los miembros (1, 2) se moverán bajo la acción de las olas esencialmente del mismo modo que una partícula de agua sin perturbar colocada en la misma región, estando los al menos dos miembros sumergidos (1, 2) mutuamente espaciados por los medios conectores (4) a los efectos de asumir posiciones respectivas afectadas de manera diferente por el movimiento del agua inducido por las olas.A wave energy converter apparatus comprising at least two members (1, 2) mutually connected by connecting means (4), movable to allow mutual movement of the members (1, 2) in response to waves in the water where the apparatus is located, the apparatus further comprises means for converting energy (6) to convert the movement of the connecting means (4) into electrical energy, and means for storing and / or transporting the energy produced somewhere else, characterizing the apparatus by which the members (1, 2) are non-floating members completely submerged with which the apparatus, in an integral manner, has a neutral buoyancy, means are provided to maintain the position of each of said submerged members essentially at rest with with respect to the surrounding water with which they are in direct contact, so that the members (1, 2) will move under the action of the waves essentially in the same way as a particle of ag U undisturbed placed in the same region, the at least two members being submerged (1, 2) mutually spaced by the connecting means (4) in order to assume respective positions affected differently by the movement of the water induced by the waves .
