F03B 17/00 - Autres "machines" ou machines motrices
The present invention relates to an energy recovery device including a central compartment (11) in which a turbine (313) is arranged and which is positioned between at least first and second compartments (123, 127). Liquid flows between the compartments via side valve systems (14…17) and a central throttling channel (18). One specific feature is that an adjustable stopper (13) is arranged substantially at the throttling channel. The device may consist of a second turbine that controls head losses and makes it possible to feed the main turbine (313) located above, in the vortex.

F03B 13/16 - Utilisation du mouvement relatif entre un élément déplacé par les vagues et un autre élément
The invention relates to a device for recovering energy from a moving fluid, comprising at least one first turbine (1) and at least one second turbine (21, 22), each mounted between a first guiding element (13, 231, 232) and a second guiding element (14, 241, 242), said guiding elements being shifted in relation to one another in a first direction (Z) that is perpendicular to the direction (F) of flow of the fluid, each of said guiding elements being generally streamlined in shape. The second turbine is shifted in relation to the first turbine in a second horizontal direction (X) that is parallel to the direction of flow, and in the first direction (Z) such that the first or the second guiding element of the first turbine is positioned in the first direction (Z) between the two guiding elements (23, 24) of the second turbine.
