[0017] The specific details of this invention will be further described below: This invention relates to a spiral-shaped building, specifically a type of landscape architecture.

[0018] The structure of the present invention includes at least one fixed building 1 at the bottom, a cylindrical building 2 in the fixed building 1, and a rotating layer 3 on top of the fixed building 1. The fixed building 1 is fixed to the ground, the rotating layer 3 has a hole in the middle, and the hole 33 in the middle of the rotating layer 3 is set on the cylindrical building 2 through a rotating guide mechanism 4 and a driving mechanism 5. The rotating layer 3 is located above the fixed building 1, and the rotating layer 3 is at least one layer. The rotary guide mechanism 4 includes a circular track 41 fixed on the cylindrical building 2 and a movable wheel 42. The movable wheel 42 is disposed on the central hole 33 on the rotating layer 3. The circular track 41 revolves around the cylindrical building 2, and the movable wheel 42 moves on the circular track 41. The drive mechanism 5 includes a gear ring 51, a drive gear 52, and a drive motor 53. The teeth on the gear ring 51 are arranged on the inner side. The gear ring 51 is arranged on the middle hole 33 of the rotating layer 3. The drive motor 53 is arranged in the cylindrical building 2. The output shaft of the drive motor 53 is provided with the drive gear 52. The drive gear 52 meshes with the gear ring 51 for transmission.

[0019] The lowest rotating layer 3 serves as a passenger layer 31. The rotating layer 3 and the cylindrical building 2 are respectively provided with pedestrian passage openings. The pedestrian passage openings of the rotating layer 3 and the pedestrian passage openings of the cylindrical building 2 are connected to form a pedestrian passage. A staircase and / or elevator are provided between the cylindrical building 2 and the fixed building 1. The exit of the staircase and / or elevator at the location of the rotating layer 3 is connected to the pedestrian passage opening of the cylindrical building 2 for pedestrian use.

[0020] The rotating layer 3 has at least two layers. In addition to the rotating layer 3 for carrying people, the upper rotating layer 3 is the landscape layer 32, and the outer perimeter of the landscape layer 32 is provided with a glass curtain wall.

[0021] The rotation of each rotating layer 3 can be synchronous, asynchronous, in the same direction, or in opposite directions. When rotating each rotating layer 3 synchronously, the rotation of each layer is staggered by a certain angle, and all rotating layers 3 rise in a spiral.

[0022] In this invention, the rotating layer 3 is a regular ellipse, the center of the central hole 33 is the center of gravity of the rotating layer 3, and the central hole 33 is located on one side of the ellipse and has an eccentric structure.

[0023] In this invention, the rotary guide structure is divided into an upper rotary guide 41 and a lower rotary guide 42. The lower rotary guide 42 is a supporting guide structure, and the upper rotary guide is a limiting guide mechanism.

[0024] In this invention, the fixed building 1 is a hall made of steel structure, the passenger layer 31 in the rotating layer 3 serves as a rotating restaurant, the rotating layer 3 is a steel structure, and the bottom of the cylindrical building 2 is constructed with a concrete foundation extending into the ground.

[0025] The invention is a spiral landscape building characterized by a fixed building with a steel structure at the bottom serving as a hall, a second floor that can be entered by people and can be used as a restaurant or a landscape platform; and a spiral rotating body without pedestrian access on the third floor and above serving as a rotating layer, with display screens or landscape lights installed on the outside.

[0026] The building has a central cylindrical structure, with the rotating layer being a cylindrical steel structure that is either eccentrically or non-eccentrically positioned on the cylindrical structure, creating a spiral rotation.

[0027] When the rotating layer is an elliptical structure with an eccentric design, meaning the central hole is not at the center of the ellipse, this embodiment addresses the issue of center of gravity shift caused by the eccentricity of the ellipse by employing a pulley at the top of the inner side of the steel structure. A limiting steel rail installed on the outer side of the central steel structure further restricts the weight, transferring the eccentric weight to the central column. To prevent problems caused by eccentricity, the lower rotating guide serves to support the entire rotating layer, while the upper rotating guide acts as a tensioning and limiting rail, preventing the elliptical eccentric structure from tilting.

[0028] The rotating layer of this device rotates via a motor that drives a gear and a gear ring to mesh and rotate. The rotating layer is guided by a rotating mechanism. The rotation directions are synchronous, but the rotation angles are staggered. The elliptical rotating layers are offset at a certain angle to create the effect of rotation. The eccentric elliptical installation design increases the amplitude of the spiral variation and the dynamic effect.

[0029] The cylindrical structure of this device is cylindrical, with I-beams or other materials forming a columnar ring. It has an inner ring of annular channel steel and an outer ring. Two annular tracks are arranged at the rotating layer and welded together to form a complete iron cage steel structure. The bottom of the cylindrical structure is fixedly connected to the concrete ground.
