Abstract
A wave energy converter has blades () on frames () rotating about a pivot joint () on a structure (). There is reciprocating rotary motion of the frame with respect to the structure, providing reciprocating rotary input power to a mechanism (). The mechanism () may be arranged so that the reciprocating input power is transferred to uni-directional power via pulleys () and sprag clutches ().
