The invention concerns an apparatus for converting wave energy into electric power, comprising a closed floating element (1) and a mass forming element (2), the mass forming element (2) being arranged inside the floating element (1) and mounted mobile relative to the floating element (1), the mass forming element (2) being adapted to be set in relative motion with respect to the floating element (1) under the action of the waves on the floating element (1). The invention is characterized in that it also comprises locking means (13) adapted to lock the movement of the mass forming element (2) and control means adapted to control the locking means (13) for selectively locking or releasing the mass element (2) so as to amplify the movement of the mass forming element (2) by constant adaptation to the dynamics of the apparatus to successive waves.

L~invention concerne un appareil pour convertir l'énergie des vagues en énergie électrique, comprenant un élément flotteur (1 ) fermé et un élément formant masse (2), l'élément formant masse (2) étant disposé à l'intérieur de l~élément flotteur (1) et étant monté mobile par rapport a l'élément flotteur (1 ), l~élément formant masse (2) étant apte à être mis en mouvement relatif par rapport à l'élément flotteur (1 ) sous l'action des vagues sur l'élément flotteur (1) caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend également des moyens de blocage (13) aptes à bloquer le mouvement de l'élément formant masse (2) et des moyens de commande aptes à commander les moyens de blocage (13) pour sélectivement bloquer ou libérer l'élément formant masse (2) de manière à amplifier le mouvement de l~élément formant masse (2) par adaptation continuelle de la dynamique de l~appareil aux vagues successives.
