Abstract
Cet appareil comprend au moins deux éléments 1, 2 qui sont adaptés de façon à être au moins partiellement immergés dans l'eau et qui sont reliés entre eux de façon à permettre aux deux éléments d'effectuer l'un par rapport à l'autre des mouvements oscillants. Pour commander les mouvements des deux éléments 1, 2 de façon à obtenir une utilisation maximale de l'énergie des vagues, les moyens de liaison entre ces deux éléments comprennent un dispositif 4 adapté pour les verrouiller l'un par rapport à l'autre pendant des périodes de temps choisies du cycle de chaque vague, de façon que la période naturelle des deux éléments 1, 2 combinés soit augmentée par rapport à la période naturelle moyenne des vagues. Application à la production d'énergie électrique et au pompage.This apparatus comprises at least two elements 1, 2 which are adapted so as to be at least partially immersed in water and which are interconnected so as to allow the two elements to perform relative to each other oscillating movements. To control the movements of the two elements 1, 2 so as to obtain maximum use of the energy of the waves, the connecting means between these two elements comprise a device 4 adapted to lock them relative to each other during selected time periods of the cycle of each wave, so that the natural period of the two elements 1, 2 combined is increased relative to the average natural period of the waves. Application to the production of electrical energy and to pumping.
