    摘要: A power generator driving device utilizing tides to form a liquid piston comprises a fixed upside-down lid container, the container mouth is immersed in the seawater and the top end is higher than the highest sea surface while in the flood tide; and, at least one air pipe, having a first end pipe port communicating with the interior of the upside-down lid container and the other second end pipe port being defined above the sea surface, a rotating shaft of the power generator is configured outside the second end pipe port and the second end pipe port faces the windward side or the leeward side of the blade of the rotating shaft. The said configuration enables the seawater inside the upside-down lid container to form a liquid piston, and the liquid piston will gradually rise or fall accompanying with the flood tide or ebb tide of the seawater. Based on the communicating vessel principle, the air inside the upside-down lid container is squeezed by the seawater, such as the liquid piston to be blown out or suck in from the second end pipe port of the air pipe while in flood tide or ebb tide, thereby driving the blade to rotate to enable the power generator to generate electricity.
