ABSTRACT:
A wave motor comprising flotation means, a ramp carried by said flotation means to convert waves into breakers and means to cause the water in approximately the top half of the breakers to be moving horizontally forward at the time of impact against an energy conversion vane. The vane drives an electric generator that produces a pulsating D.C. current voltage basically the same frequency as that of the sea waves and an electrolytic cell driven by said generator produces hydrogen at the pulsing frequency of the sea waves.
