To provide a simple and inexpensive wave-driven upwelling pump that accelerates vertical water circulation in sea areas and lakes.SOLUTION: The present invention has a structure in which a connection body 4, an upwelling pipe 2 in water, and a valve body 1 are connected to a floating body 5 on a water surface that repeatedly moves up and down by waves. As a result of making the valve body 1 larger than the outer diameter of the upwelling pipe 2 so that water flow pressure outside the upwelling pipe 2 can be used for opening and closing the valve body 1, it is possible to open and close the valve body 1 with a slight vertical movement of the floating body 5.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】海域や湖沼における鉛直上下方向の水循環を促進する簡易かつ安価な波動駆動式湧昇ポンプを提供する。【解決手段】本発明は、波動により上下運動を繰り返す水面上の浮体５に連結体４と水中の湧昇管２、および弁体１を連結する構造とした。弁体１を湧昇管２の外径より大きくする事により、湧昇管２の外側の水流圧を弁体１の開閉に利用出来るようにした結果、浮体５の僅かな上下運動で弁体１の開閉運動を行う事を可能とした。【選択図】図１
