Apparatus wave power plant comprising a plurality of arms arranged to pivot with a mutual phase shift

2004 
An apparatus (102) of wave energy comprising: - a plurality of arms (122), each of which is rotatably supported in a medium extremopor an axis (126), and wherein each arm carries a float (124) at its other end, which esopuesto the supported, end so that a displacement movement of the float provocadopor a wave results in rotation of the arm about the axis, - means of energy conversion to convert energy transmitted from the wave to the arms into electrical energy, the plurality of arms in a row, so that a wave passing through the filade arms causes the arms to pivot in succession around the axis, arranged losbrazos being at mutual distances, so being arranged the passage of the wave causes the arms to pivot mutual undesfase, means energy conversion system comprising a accionamientohidraulico with a motor (182) operated hydraulically, wherein each arm is connected to the hydraulic drive system via at least one cilindrohidraulico (128) which causes a hydraulic medium of the hydraulic drive system is desplazadohasta inside the engine, the cylinders being arranged to displace the hydraulic medium to the medium motorpor common hydraulic conduits (180), wherein each cylinder is provided with a sensor (206) for determining a position and / or speed delpiston movement (130) of the cylinder, the sensor being arranged to transmit a signal to a unit control loscilindros and associated valves, so that the transmission of energy from each individual cylinder (128) to the remaining parts of the hydraulic drive system is controllable individually enrespuesta the signal representing the position and / or speed piston movement of the individual cylinder.
