Abstract
This invention presents an ocean observation platform with an integrated, highly reliable wave energy generation mechanism, relevant to power supply technology in marine environments. It includes a platform floating body and a power generation mechanism located at the platform's bottom. The mechanism features disassemblable power generation piles, arranged in a circular array on the floating body. This design ensures that if one pile fails, the others continue generating electricity, enabling a long-term, stable, and continuous power supply. This is particularly useful for monitoring meteorological, temperature, salinity, and ocean current data in complex marine conditions.
