ABSTRACT:
A tidal power generation device includes at least a chassis, a rail frame, and a chain support rack. A driver is provided at an end of the rail frame. The driver includes a connection bar. The chain support rack is set on the chassis and includes toothed wheels that support and operatively couple a chain that is coupled to the connection bar. One of the toothed wheels has a shaft that is supported by a one-way bearing and is operatively coupled to a first transmission axle by mated gears. The first transmission axle drives a second transmission axle, which is coupled to a dynamo. The driver is caused to move frontward by sea waves for driving the first transmission axle through the chain and the toothed wheels, so as to cause the rotation of the second transmission axle for transmitting torque to the dynamo to generate electricity.
