Abstract
A power converting apparatus that may increase a generation efficiency by receiving a power from a power source, producing electricity by rotating an output shaft connected to a generator using a portion of the received power, accumulating a remaining portion of the received power in an energy storage device, and rotating the output shaft using the accumulated energy when a power is not transmitted from the power source, the power source that floats in the ocean, performs irregular motions in vertical and horizontal directions by waves within a predetermined range, and generates an intermittent linear power, is provided.
