description A very large floating structure based on modular units and a combined mooring system. The system includes a central large platform module, small outer platform modules, tension-legs, mooring lines, oscillating float-type wave energy converters and module connectors. The oscillating float-type wave energy converters can convert the swinging motion of the floaters into the horizontal motion of the piston rods through the gear wheel-rack transmission. Module connectors between modules are divided into two kinds of modes. One can utilize both relative torsional motion and horizontal motion between the central large platform module and the adjacent small platform modules, while the other simultaneously generates power and reduces the relative motions between the adjacent platform modules. The wave energy converters on the outer modules of the very large floating structure can generate power by absorbing the incident wave energy.
