A device consisting of a container which is partially submerged in the sea which may be buoyant and connected to the seabed with cables or mounted on a platform and whose interior is connected to its exterior via pipes where in response to the passing of waves is filled and emptied through these pipes. The force of the water flowing through the pipes causes turbines to rotate thus generating electricity which may be transmitted to land. These turbines may be turbines which rotate in different directions depending on the direction of water flow or turbines which maintain the same direction of rotation irrespective of the direction of water flow.
La présente invention concerne un dispositif composé d'un contenant partiellement immergé dans la mer et qui peut flotter, il est relié aux fonds marins par des câbles ou fixé sur une plate-forme. Son intérieur est relié à l'extérieur par des conduites. En réponse au passage des vagues, il se remplit et se vide par ces conduites. La force de l'eau passant par les conduites amène les turbines à pivoter, générant ainsi de l'électricité qui peut être transmise à la terre. Ces turbines peuvent pivoter dans différentes directions en fonction de la direction du flux marin ou conserver la même direction de rotation, quelle que soit la direction du flux de l'eau.
