Abstract

1448204 Utilizing wave energy WAVE POWER Ltd 17 July 1973 [28 July 1972] 35523/72 Heading F1S Apparatus for extracting energy from the wave movement of the sea comprises two or more buoyant members 11 which are hinged one to another, the members together defining a substantially continuous lower surface, and means connected between each two buoyant members for converting relative movement of the members into useful energy. As shown, the means connected between each two buoyant members comprises a hydraulic or pneumatic device 12 which transmits pressure pulses to means such as a reservoir (not shown). The apparatus can be positioned off shore and can be used to pump water to a reservoir which can be used for powering a shore based hydro-electric installation.
