Abstract: An ocean wave energy converter for electric power generation is proposed, which comprises a shell, with an open top, resting on the ocean floor, enclosing a piston reciprocating along its mainly vertical axis, a rollable annular seal, fixed to the piston and to the shell inner wall, enclosing a vented gas-filled chamber housing an assembly of hydraulic cylinders and fluid energy conversion equipment, with the piston operable in response to pressure changes from ocean waves. In the state of the art, the reciprocating part is designed to resonate at ocean wave frequency. In contrast to this, the special feature of the inventive wave energy converter is the piston is controlled via an inventive fluid power transformer to start and stop discretely in response to a computer algorithm sensing pressure along the seabed for on-coming waves for harvesting, and in this way a substantial improvement in power generation efficiency is achieved. A further object of the invention is to provide an ocean wave generator for recreational purposes by reversing piston function and using electricity to make waves.

Patent CA-2636406-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WOLF THOMAS G
IPC: G16Z99/00
Filed: 2007-03-19
Abstract: A method and apparatus for combining pressure information from pressure sensors, motion information from dead reckoning or other motion sensors, such as accelerometers, gyroscopes, and geomagnetic sensors, and temperature information from temperature sensors, to separate a change in altitude from a change in environmental pressure or temperature. A change in measured pressure without any motion or change in temperature must be a weather-related barometric pressure change. If there is an associated temperature change, but no motion, and the rate of change is too fast for a normal weather change, the measured change represents a change in sensitivity of the pressure sensor with temperature, and the sensor calibration can be adjusted. A rapid change in pressure, associated with horizontal motion, but no measurable vertical motion represents a movement into a different pressure environment. Only changes in pressure that are associated with measurable vertical motion are true changes in altitude.
