[0033] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0034] Example 1

[0035] Figures 1 to 5 The data center cabin settlement structure provided in this embodiment is shown, including a cabin body 1, a load-bearing support 3 and a reinforced concrete counterweight.

[0036] A connecting saddle 2 is sleeved and installed on the outside of the cabin body 1, and two connecting saddles 2 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the cabin body 1. In some other embodiments, in order to improve the stability of the connection between the connecting saddle 2 and the cabin body 1, multiple connecting saddles 2 are installed at intervals outside the cabin body 1. The load-bearing support 3 is fixedly installed on at least one side of the connecting saddle 2, and a bearing part 4 is arranged on the load-bearing support 3, and the bearing part 4 is arranged on the opposite side of two adjacent load-bearing supports 3. The reinforced concrete counterweight is installed between two adjacent load-bearing supports 3, and the reinforced concrete counterweight is overlapped with the bearing part 4.

[0037] The reinforced concrete counterweight includes four stacked sub-counterweight blocks 5, which are arranged in two layers, one above the other, and each layer is provided with two sub-counterweight blocks 5. The multiple sub-counterweight blocks 5 are fixedly connected, and a hoisting hole 6 is provided on the top of the sub-counterweight block 5, and a hoisting column 7 is fixedly installed in the hoisting hole 6, and the hoisting column 7 is horizontally arranged. A hoisting groove 8 is provided at the bottom of the sub-counterweight block 5, and the hoisting groove 8 is arranged through the sub-counterweight block 5 in a direction perpendicular to the cabin body 1.

[0038] The left and right sides of the load-bearing support 3 are connected with a cladding side plate 9, which extends toward the reinforced concrete counterweight, and the end of the reinforced concrete counterweight is arranged on the inner side of the cladding side plate 9. In order to facilitate the connection between the load-bearing support 3 and the lifting mechanism, a lifting lug 10 is provided on the side of the load-bearing support 3 away from the reinforced concrete counterweight near the top. During lifting, the lifting rope on the lifting mechanism is connected with the lifting lug 10. A guide sleeve 11 is connected to the side of the load-bearing support 3 away from the reinforced concrete counterweight, and the guide sleeve 11 is suitable for installation with the guide column on the base of the data center. In this embodiment, the load-bearing support 3 is made by welding and connecting multiple steel plates. In order to meet the installation and fixing of the reinforced concrete counterweight and the lifting strength requirements, the load-bearing support 3 can also be made of prefabricated profiles. The load-bearing support 3 and the connecting saddle 2 are fixed by welding or bolting. The load-bearing support 3 and the connecting saddle 2 can also be made into an integral component by prefabricated profiles.

[0039] The connecting saddle 2 includes an inner connecting ring 12 and an outer connecting ring 13 which are arranged inside and outside. The inner connecting ring 12 and the outer connecting ring 13 are connected via a connecting rib 14. The outer side wall of the cabin body 1 is fitted with the inner side of the inner connecting ring 12. The load-bearing support 3 is fixedly installed on at least one side of the outer connecting ring 13.

[0040] In order to improve the overall stability of the settlement structure, the load-bearing support 3 and the reinforced concrete counterweight are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting saddle 2. In order to increase the weight of the reinforced concrete counterweight and save the amount of steel used in the load-bearing support 3, the reinforced concrete counterweight is extended from the top of the load-bearing support 3 in the height direction.

[0041] Before hoisting, pre-install the relevant equipment of the data center into the cabin body 1, and install the cabin body 1, the load-bearing support 3 and the reinforced concrete counterweight accordingly. First, sink the data center base used to support the data center cabin underwater, and then connect the hoisting mechanism with the hoisting lugs 10 on the load-bearing support 3 and the hoisting columns 7 on the reinforced concrete counterweight. After hoisting the data center cabin settlement structure as a whole, it sinks into the water under the gravity of the reinforced concrete counterweight. When the data center cabin settlement structure is close to the bottom of the water, let the guide sleeve 11 on the load-bearing support 3 cooperate with the guide column on the data center base, so that the guide sleeve 11 drives the load-bearing support 3, the cabin body 1 and the reinforced concrete counterweight to descend to the predetermined position of the data center base under the guidance of the guide column. Complete the settlement installation of the data center.

[0042] When the data center is hoisted and launched into the water using the data center cabin sinking structure, the hoisting mechanism is connected with the load-bearing support 3, and the sinking hoisting of the data center cabin sinking structure is realized under the gravity of the reinforced concrete counterweight. By setting the load-bearing support 3, and setting the bearing part 4 for fixing and installing the reinforced concrete counterweight on the load-bearing support 3, the bearing part 4 is connected with the reinforced concrete counterweight, so that the reinforced concrete counterweight is used as the main part of the sinking structure, and only the load-bearing support 3 is used. By making the connection saddle and the cabin body fit together, when the connection saddle is hoisted, the hoisting force can be transmitted to the cabin body through the connection saddle, so that the cabin body can become the main force-bearing component of the entire hoisting process, making full use of the load-bearing characteristics of the cabin body, reducing the design of redundant structural components that bear the hoisting force, and can greatly reduce the amount of steel used and reduce the cost of the underwater data center. In addition, the stability of reinforced concrete underwater is much higher than that of steel structure. By limiting the cabin body 1 underwater with the reinforced concrete counterweight, the maintenance cycle of the underwater data center can be extended, and the stability of the underwater data center in long-term continuous operation can be improved.

[0043] Example 2

[0044] This embodiment provides an underwater data center, which has the data center cabin sinking structure described in Example 1. It also includes a data center base, on which multiple data center cabin sinking structures are installed. When the data center is hoisted and launched into the water using the data center cabin sinking structure provided in Example 1, the hoisting mechanism is connected with the load-bearing support, and the data center cabin sinking structure is hoisted and sunk into the water under the gravity of the reinforced concrete counterweight. By setting a load-bearing support, and setting a bearing part for fixing and installing the reinforced concrete counterweight on the load-bearing support, and using the bearing part to be connected with the reinforced concrete counterweight, the reinforced concrete counterweight is used as the main part of the sinking structure, and only the load-bearing support uses steel. By making the connection saddle and the cabin body fit together, when the connection saddle is hoisted, the hoisting force can be transmitted to the cabin body through the connection saddle, so that the cabin body can become the main force-bearing component of the entire hoisting process, making full use of the load-bearing characteristics of the cabin body, reducing the design of redundant structural components subjected to hoisting force, and can greatly reduce the amount of steel used and reduce the cost of the underwater data center.

[0045] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the invention.
