Abstract

 Cette invention concerne un système de génération d'énergie dans lequel est installé un mécanisme de génération d'énergie, dans un emplacement distinct d'un emplacement dans lequel est reçue l'énergie d'un flux de fluide telle que l'énergie éolienne ou l'énergie des vagues, quand l'énergie d'un flux de fluide telle que l'énergie éolienne ou l'énergie des vagues est destinée à être convertie en énergie électrique, ledit mécanisme de génération d'énergie ne recevant pas l'énergie éolienne anormale ou les vagues anormales telles qu'issues d'un typhon. Plus précisément, l'invention concerne un système de génération d'énergie dans lequel un mécanisme à mouvement alternatif (20) est relié à un mécanisme d'accueil de fluide (10) conçu pour accueillir un fluide en écoulement, le mouvement du mécanisme d'accueil de fluide étant converti en mouvement alternatif, le mouvement alternatif étant transmis à un mécanisme de génération d'énergie (30) disposé dans une région distincte de la région dans laquelle est disposé le mécanisme d'accueil de fluide, et le mouvement alternatif étant converti en énergie électrique. Ledit mécanisme à mouvement alternatif est pourvu d'un câble externe cylindrique (22) disposé entre le mécanisme d'accueil de fluide et le mécanisme de génération d'énergie, et d'un câble interne (21) inséré dans le câble externe (22) et connecté au mécanisme d'accueil de fluide ainsi qu'au mécanisme de génération d'énergie, le câble interne (21) effectuant un mouvement alternatif à l'intérieur du câble externe en conjonction avec le déplacement du mécanisme d'accueil de fluide et transmettant le mouvement alternatif au mécanisme de génération d'énergie.
