[0037] In the following, only some exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will appreciate, the described embodiments may be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings and descriptions are considered to be exemplary and non-restrictive in nature.

[0038] Existing floating structures are mostly used in professional fields such as resource exploitation and data collection, and have poor scalability. They cannot serve as places for long-term human habitation and cannot independently solve the problems of fresh water and energy supply. Even the construction of various offshore platforms will have a certain negative impact on the marine ecological environment.

[0039] In order to solve the above problems, an embodiment of the present invention provides a floating module 1, such as Figure 1 As shown, the floating module 1 at least includes a base and a buoy 102. The base can be set as a bio-island base, and the base made of recycled polyethylene (HDPE) material can ensure the water resistance and weather resistance of the structure, which is both environmentally friendly and provides good strength.

[0040] Corresponding mortise and tenon assemblies are arranged on different side walls of a base, so that a base can be connected with other bases at the front, rear, left and right sides thereof with mortise and tenon joints respectively, thereby forming an island structure.

[0041] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, Figure 2 and Figure 3 There are two different tenon and mortise structures, but they are basically connected by concave-convex splicing. Specifically: on any side wall of the base, a local depression is formed inward to form a first tenon and mortise piece 103, and on the other side wall of the same base, a local protrusion is formed outward to form a second tenon and mortise piece 104. The local protrusion size of the second tenon and mortise piece 104 corresponds to the local depression size of the first tenon and mortise piece 103, so that when two bases are adjacently spliced, the first tenon and mortise piece 103 of one base and the second tenon and mortise piece 104 of the other base can be completely matched. At the same time, a first opening is provided on the first tenon and mortise piece 103, and a second opening is provided on the second tenon and mortise piece 104. When the first tenon and mortise pieces 103 and the second tenon and mortise piece 104 of the two bases are spliced, the first opening is opposite to the position of the second opening. At this time, the third tenon and mortise piece 105 is used to penetrate the first opening and the second opening, so that the adjacent bases are closely connected. There is almost no gap between the adjacent bases after being connected by the tenon and mortise structure, which can reduce the shaking of the connection and improve the stability between the bases.

[0042] Among them, the opening directions of the first opening and the second opening on the base determine the insertion direction of the third mortise and tenon component 105. For example, if the first opening and the second opening are opened from top to bottom, the third mortise and tenon component 105 is longitudinally inserted into the first opening and the second opening; if the first opening and the second opening are opened from left to right, the third mortise and tenon component 105 is transversely inserted into the first opening and the second opening.

[0043] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, the mortise and tenon assembly may also include a mortise and tenon block 107 and a mortise and tenon column 108; a mortise and tenon area 106 is formed by a local inward depression on a designated side wall of the base, and when two adjacent bases are spliced, the shape formed by the combination of the mortise and tenon areas 106 on the two bases matches the shape of the mortise and tenon block 107; a partial mortise and tenon block 107 is embedded in the mortise and tenon area 106 of one base, and the remaining mortise and tenon block 107 is embedded in the mortise and tenon area 106 of the other base, so that the same mortise and tenon block 107 is embedded in the mortise and tenon areas 106 of the two bases at the same time, thereby realizing the connection between the two bases; at the same time, a socket is provided on the mortise and tenon area 106 of the base, and a through hole is provided on the mortise and tenon block 107 at a position opposite to the socket, and the mortise and tenon column 108 is inserted into the socket through the through hole to realize the fixation between the two bases.

[0044] The lower surface of the base is provided with a plurality of hollow receiving parts, which can be connected to the lower surface of the base in a detachable manner. Specifically, Figure 5 As shown, a slot 109 is provided on the lower surface of the base, and the container can be formed by splicing a plurality of splicing plates 101. The container can be detachably connected to the lower surface of the base by inserting its splicing plates 101 into the slot 109. A float 102 is provided in the container, and the float 102 is used to provide buoyancy for the base. The float 102 can use a recycled plastic float 102, such as a recycled polyethylene float 102, a polypropylene float 102, etc., to provide sufficient buoyancy while ensuring water resistance and weather resistance.

[0045] In order to protect the buoy 102 from damage by marine organisms and other factors, the splicing plate 101 constituting the containment member may be a recycled plastic baffle, which may be a recycled polyethylene baffle, a polypropylene baffle, etc., which protects the buoy 102 while facilitating subsequent maintenance and replacement.

[0046] like Figure 6As shown, there is a certain gap between adjacent containers, and a designated object is laid on the lower surface of the base corresponding to the gap. The designated object can be one of artificial fish reefs 2, artificial coral reefs 3 or seagrass beds 4. At the same time, the outer surface of the container can also be provided with a designated object, which can be one of artificial fish reefs 2, artificial coral reefs 3 or seagrass beds 4. The space under the base is fully utilized, and a habitat is provided for marine life by laying artificial fish reefs 2 and other measures, creating an organic circulation system of biodiversity and improving the marine environment.

[0047] Among them, structures such as artificial fish reefs 2 are made of recycled plastics with strong durability and environmental protection, and are attached to the bottom of the main structure of the biological island, providing a habitat and breeding place for marine organisms.
