ABSTRACT:
An artificial wave generating device employs an axially mounted vessel that is divided into two substantially equal chambers. The chambers are each separated by a planar member which extends from end to end and side to side of the cylindrical vessel. The dividing plate is adjusted to be at an angle such that gravity automatically rotates the device when the upper chamber is completely filled with water and a brake mechanism is released.
