DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0024] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and functions realized by the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to specific drawings.

[0025] Refer to Figures 1 to 3 A schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of a combined ecological floating island in, the combined ecological floating island of this embodiment can have multiple floating island units assembled and connected outward in the same horizontal space to obtain a floating island with a specific size and shape.

[0026] As an example, in this embodiment of Figure 1The structural style after the assembly of the three floating island units shown in the figure. Each floating island unit includes an outer frame support 3 and a planting pot that can be disassembled and assembled on the outer frame support 3. The outer frame support 3 of this embodiment serves as the structural support of the floating island and is formed of rigid polyurethane foam, having good buoyancy and durability. The planting pot is concentrically assembled on the outer frame support 3 and can plant different aquatic plants through the planting pot volume cavity 11 in its structure.

[0027] The detachable structural design of the planting pot on the outer frame support 3 enables the floating island units to be flexibly combined and disassembled, so as to adapt to different water environments and ecological restoration needs and maintain the health and beauty of the ecological floating island by matching different aquatic plants and replacing necrotic and diseased plants in a timely manner.

[0028] The outer contour of the outer frame support 3 is a regular hexagon, and a stepped surface 7 that is consistent with the outer contour of the outer frame support is formed on the outer edge of the upper surface of the outer frame support 3. The outer frame support 3 is provided with male connection and assembly parts 1 and female connection and assembly parts 2 at intervals on the sides of the regular hexagon outer contour. The outer frame support 3 of each floating island unit is connected to adjacent floating island units through its male connection and assembly part 1 and female connection and assembly part 2, so as to realize the circular structure splicing of multiple floating island units; the setting of the stepped surface 7 can be used to strengthen the structure of the outer frame support 3 on the outer edge on the one hand, and on the other hand, it can provide sufficient assembly space for the male connection and assembly part 1 / female connection and assembly part 2.

[0029] Specifically in this embodiment, the connection between the corresponding male connection and assembly part 1 and female connection and assembly part 2 is a snap-fit splicing. Among them, a plurality of protruding snaps are arranged along the length direction of a single male connection and assembly part 1, and the female connection and assembly part 2 includes grooves corresponding to the plurality of snaps. The protruding snaps can be inserted into the corresponding grooves to achieve a firm connection. This splicing method not only improves the structural stability of the floating island, but also makes the connection between the floating island units fast and simple.

[0030] While referring to Figure 2 the cross-sectional schematic diagram of the waistline position of the floating island unit in the figure, in which the inner contour of the outer frame support 3 is a circle, and a plurality of arc-shaped outer convex parts 8 arranged in a ring are formed on the circular surface of the inner circular contour. These arc-shaped outer convex parts 8 match the plurality of structural ribs 9 formed on the outer circular surface of the planting pot body 10 to ensure that the planting pot is stably positioned and placed in the outer frame support 3 of the floating island unit.

[0031] In Figure 3The longitudinal sectional structure schematic diagram of the planting pot is shown. As can be seen from the figure, the pot body 10 of the planting pot is a straight cylinder structure and is assembled below the lower step plane of the stepped surface 7 of the outer frame support 3. In this embodiment, the pot body 10 of the planting pot is formed of high-strength plastic or fiberglass-reinforced plastic, ensuring the light weight and strength of the planting pot. An outer edge 4 integrally formed with the pot body 10 is formed on the outer edge of the top surface of the pot body 10. Through this outer edge 4, the position can be limited on the top surface of the pot body 10 to prevent the planting pot from passing through the inner circle of the outer frame support 3 during assembly. And the structural rib 9 is formed on the outer cylindrical surface of the pot body and abuts against the lower surface of the outer edge 4 on the top surface. The cross-section of the structural rib 9 is an outwardly convex circular arc matching the arc-shaped convex part 8, and the cross-sectional dimension of the structural rib continuously increases from bottom to top.

[0032] The above-mentioned structural rib 9 not only enhances the structural strength of the planting pot, but also matches its outwardly convex circular arc cross-section with the arc-shaped convex part 8 to press-fit a single structural rib 9 between two adjacent arc-shaped convex parts 8 in the position shown in the following figure, so as to realize the pre-fixing of the position of the planting pot in the outer frame support 3, and disperse the force of the floating island unit on the water surface, improving the overall buoyancy stability. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, to press-fit a single structural rib 9 between two adjacent arc-shaped convex parts 8 in the position shown, so as to realize the pre-fixing of the position of the planting pot in the outer frame support 3, and disperse the force of the floating island unit on the water surface, improving the overall buoyancy stability.

[0033] The planting pot is also provided with a threaded connection part 12 on the lower part of the outer wall and a connection seat 13 matching the threaded connection part 12. The matching of the connection seat 13 and the threaded connection part 12 enables the position of the planting pot to be further fixed at the bottom by the rotation of the connection seat 13 after the planting pot is press-fitted and pre-fixed in the outer frame support 3, ensuring its stability and levelness in the floating island unit. This design not only facilitates the installation and disassembly of the planting pot, but also further improves the stability of the floating island unit on the water surface.

[0034] In addition, a structural top block 14 is formed on the connection seat 13 of this embodiment. The structural top blocks 14 are arranged in pairs and can continuously press against the lower surface of the outer frame support 3 during the rotation of the connection seat 13. This design ensures the stable fixation of the planting pot in the floating island unit and avoids loosening caused by water flow or external forces.

[0035] In this embodiment, the bottom surface of the pot body of the planting pot is an open surface, and a limiting ring edge 5 with a structurally inwardly retracted shape is formed at the inner position of the open surface. A rigid structural mesh surface 6 matching the size of the bottom surface of the pot body of the planting pot is padded at the position of the limiting ring edge of the planting pot. The setting of the rigid structural mesh surface 6 can not only prevent the loss of the breeding substrate filled in the volume cavity 11 of the planting pot, but also provide a good growth environment for the roots of aquatic plants.

[0036] In other embodiments, mounting holes can also be formed on the outer frame support 3. These mounting holes are used to connect the counterweight unit and the anchoring system for fixing the floating island unit. The corresponding anchoring system can include an anchor rope with adjustable length, an anchor block, and an anchor ring. One end of the anchor rope is fixedly connected to the mounting hole of the outer frame support 3, and the other end is connected to the anchor block, which is fixed to the bottom of the water through the anchor ring. This design of the anchoring system enables the floating island unit to be adjusted according to the depth and flow rate of the water body, ensuring the stability and safety of the floating island.

[0037] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and the descriptions in the specification only illustrate the principles of the present utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model, the present utility model will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present utility model claimed. The scope of protection claimed by the present utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
