The Wave Generator Power Plant converts the energy in sea waves into
electricity. The wave motor portion of the power plant utilizes a
buoyant, moving, semisubmerged, cone-shaped pontoon that is powered by
the sea wave motion. The reciprocation is changed to rotary motion by a
connecting rod and crankshaft. Then, through a gearbox, the rotary motion
drives an electrical generator. The fully submerged, stationary, buoyant,
ring-pontoon is anchored to the sea floor by sixteen (16) cables. Also,
sixteen (16) columns connecting to it, support the upper above-water
structure. The assembly, is a moving buoyant pontoon, reciprocating
within an anchored ring-pontoon. Optimum operation takes place in sea
waves of adequate height and period that can lift and drop the moving
cone-shaped pontoon relative to the design mechanical requirements. Sea
wave energy, through the design of this invention, is amassed to develop
sixteen hundred (1600) horsepower and generate one ((1) mega-watt of
electricity.
