Abstract: This invention relates to a wave energy recovery apparatus with an energy transfer arrangement comprising at least a base, a reciprocating panel, a pivot shaft for the reciprocating panel, a control system, and a driving and power-take-off (PTO) arrangement equipped with an actuating mechanism (6), and one or more power-take-off (PTO) units to convert kinetic energy of waves or tidal currents to another type of energy, each PTO unit comprising a hydraulic power transmission mechanism having hydraulic cylinders with pistons inside the hydraulic cylinders. The pistons are fastened with their free ends to the common connecting plate that is arranged to move all the pistons simultaneously inwards into the hydraulic cylinders and to draw all the pistons simultaneously outwards from the hydraulic cylinders.

Abstract: This invention relates to a wave energy conversion apparatus comprising at least a base, a reciprocating panel, supporting legs and a pivot shaft for the reciprocating panel, and a power-take-off machinery equipped with a generator comprising a rotor, in which apparatus the panel is hinged at its lower edge onto the stationary supporting legs to make a reciprocating motion in response to kinetic energy of waves or tidal currents. The apparatus comprises an actuating mechanism to convert the power of the circumferential speed of the reciprocating panel at a distance point being situated at the area of the upper half of the panel mechanically to a rotational movement of the rotor of the generator of the power-take-off machinery.
