Abstract
A floating wave power generator is capable of lifting under remote control, and includes a linear generator fixed to a seabed and a floating assembly connected with the linear generator, where the floating assembly includes a lower floating body connected with a motor of the linear generator through an anchor chain, an upper floating body connected with the lower floating body through a rigid rod and floating on the sea surface, where the upper floating body is used for collecting wave energy and controlling the buoyancy of the whole floating assembly, the lower floating body is used for assisting the upper floating body to collect wave energy and controlling a distance between the whole floating assembly and the linear generator, the motor of the linear generator is used for cutting magnetic induction lines to generate electric power according to a lift-up/down movement of the whole floating assembly.
