Abstract: The wave energy converter consists of a hollow steel float (5) mounted on a steel tube (3) held in a vertical position with steel cables (7) to the seabed. The hollow steel float (5) is filled with water to give it weight and this float (5) is free to slide up and down on the steel support column (3). The weight of the steel float (5) is more than offset with the lid of a counterweight (30) attached to a steel cable (25). The action of the steel cable on a mandrel (26) and gear arrangement mounted on top of the steel column is to capture the unsupported weight of the water in the float as the wave descends. The up and down action of a weight of ten tons or more confers a continuous mono-direction to a flywheel (31) through a pawl and ratchet arrangement which in turn drives an electric generator through gear engagement with the spinning flywheel. In another embodiment this descending weight energy could be captured through a hydraulic arrangement for the mandrel gear (4) and (5).

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a motor-driven mechanical system with a detection system to measure properties of a back channel and derive oscillatory characteristics of the mechanical system. Uses of the detection system may include calculating the resonant frequency of the mechanical system and a threshold drive DTH required to move the mechanical system from the starting mechanical stop position. System manufacturers often do not know the resonant frequency and DTH of their mechanical systems precisely. Therefore, the calculation of the specific mechanical system's resonant frequency and DTH rather than depending on the manufacturer's expected values improves precision in the mechanical system use. The backchannel calculations may be used either to replace or to improve corresponding pre-programmed values.
