Zusammenfassung:PURPOSE:To suppress the fluctuation in a wavy condition by providing wings with a necessary form and size at the left side and the right side of an ocean structure main body, at the underwater position, in a structure provided with an air chamber at the front end of the ocean structure main body, and a wave energy converting device at the upper side of the air chamber. CONSTITUTION:An air chamber 3 is provided at the front end of an ocean structure main body 1 having a buoyancy chambers 2 and 12, and openings 4 are formed at the lower front end of the air chamber 3, air holes 5 are provided at the ceiling of the air chamber 3, and power chambers 6 are provided at the outer side. By utilizing the power of the air in the air chamber 3 which is boosted when the waves surge, air turbines provided in the power chambers 6 are rotated, so as to drive an energy converting device 7. In order to suppress the up and down movement by the waves 9 to reduce the variation of the water level in the air chamber 3, plate form of wings 15 are provided in the horizontal direction in the underwater position at the sides of the ocean structure main body 1. Consequently, the movement in the wavy condition of the ocean structure is reduced, and the absorbing efficiency of the wave energy is improved.
