The environmental sensing sensor 5 here can be composed of a variety of sensors for evaluating the status of the marine ecosystem, such as temperature and salinity sensors, depth and pressure sensors, flow rate and wave sensors, ecological monitoring sensors, seabed crust movement monitoring, etc., which can be used to evaluate the marine environment. And one end of the power cable 28 here is connected to the data center to provide power supply for the data center;
[0028] It also includes sealed cavities 9 on both sides of the interior of the power supply cabin 2, control valves 10 are provided at the openings of the two sealed cavities 9, and a positioning component is provided between the sealed cavity 9 and the power supply cabin 2, which is used to mark the floating position of the power supply cabin 2.

[0029] Furthermore, the connecting assembly includes a fixed block 11 fixedly installed on the end of the power supply cable 7 away from the reel 6, a support block 12 is fixedly installed on the side of the inner top wall of the pressure-resistant cabin 4 close to the fixed block 11, a telescopic rod 13 is installed between the support block 12 and the fixed block 11, and a connecting piece is detachably installed between the power supply cable 1 7 and the power supply cable 2 8. When the seabed environment is abnormal, the telescopic rod 13 can be controlled to extend to drive the connecting pieces on the power supply cable 1 7 and the power supply cable 2 8 to separate, thereby cutting off power to the data center connected to the power supply cable 2 8, so as to prevent data damage or loss in time.
[0030] Furthermore, the connecting member includes a magnetic block 14 fixedly mounted on one end of the power supply cable 1 7 close to the power supply cable 2 8 , and a magnetic block 2 15 fixedly mounted on one end of the power supply cable 2 8 close to the power supply cable 1 7 .

[0037] Furthermore, the material of the bellows 22 is retractable, the retractable distance of the bellows 22 matches the retractable distance of the telescopic rod 20 , and the bellows 22 is made of a waterproof material.
[0038] Working principle: When the power supply and distribution cabin for the submarine data center cluster is used, the environment sensing sensor 5 can sense the submarine water flow environment. When the submarine environment is abnormal, the telescopic rod 13 can be controlled to extend to drive the magnetic block 14 at the end of the power supply cable 7 to separate from the magnetic block 2 15, thereby cutting off the power to the data center connected to the power supply cable 2 8, so as to prevent data damage or loss in time, thereby realizing automatic control, reducing the need for manual intervention, and improving the response speed. At the same time, it can effectively avoid potential equipment damage and safety hazards. By immediately cutting off the power supply in the event of an abnormality, the risk of equipment damage is reduced, and the possible electrical failure to the data center is avoided. Influence, and further, when the surrounding environment of the body 1 continues to deteriorate, the reel 6 can be controlled to rotate and tighten the surface power supply cable 1 7, and the use of the telescopic rod 13 can make the power supply cable 1 7 away from the power supply cable 2 8, so that the power supply cable 1 7 can maintain a larger safety distance from the power supply cable 2 8 when affected by the environment, thereby avoiding direct physical collision and interference, and setting it to a safer state, which not only improves the environmental adaptability and equipment protection capabilities, but also enhances the fault prevention and handling capabilities. This comprehensive design ensures that the system can still maintain efficient, safe and stable operation in a complex and harsh submarine environment, and further improves the reliability of power supply operations for the data center;
[0039] In addition, considering that the seabed environment has abnormal conditions that are seriously detrimental to the safety of the body 1, it is necessary to float for safety reasons. The airbag 18 and the marking tank 21 can be used in combination. When the airbag 18 floats to the surface of the sea, the contents of the marking tank 21 are controlled to be released to mark the sea area. This can achieve effective floating and precise management of subsequent position deviations, improve the accurate marking of the floating position, and make subsequent search and positioning in complex marine environments more efficient. In the process of floating the power supply cabin 2, the airbag 18 on the surface of the blocking block 17 can be driven to move by the telescopic rod 20, which can drive the power supply cabin 2 to float. By moving the airbag 18, the swaying during the floating process can be more finely controlled, which helps the overall smooth floating of the body 1, reduces potential risks during the floating process, and improves flexibility during the floating process.
