[0003] However, existing space capsules are only used in the single scenario of tourist attractions for accommodation and rest, and are difficult to adapt to the complex working environment outside. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this disclosure is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an amphibious cabin.

[0005] Therefore, this disclosure provides an amphibious capsule, which includes: The main cabin is configured to float on water or be propelled by a drive mechanism, and to be parked on land or moved by external forces. Two auxiliary compartments are arranged opposite each other on both sides of the main compartment along the direction of travel of the main compartment, and protrude relative to the main compartment to form side wings along the direction of travel perpendicular to the main compartment.

[0011] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the main cabin is a square main cabin, and the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface are square inclined surfaces. Along the direction perpendicular to the travel direction, the width of the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface is equal to the width of the main cabin.

[0012] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the middle portions of the side wings on the same side are fixedly connected by a connector.

[0029] In recent years, some mobile homestay capsules have emerged, often set up in gardens of scenic spots and communities. They can be used as hotel rooms for people to sit, lie down, and rest. They have the advantages of being closer to nature, scenic spots, and the outdoors, allowing people to better appreciate the natural scenery and enjoy themselves.

[0030] However, existing space capsules are only used in the single scenario of tourist attractions for accommodation and rest, and are difficult to adapt to the complex working environment outside.

[0031] To this end, this disclosure provides an amphibious module comprising a main module and two auxiliary modules. The main module is configured to float or be propelled by a drive mechanism when on water, and to be stationary or propelled by external force when on land. The two auxiliary modules are arranged opposite to each other on both sides of the main module along the direction of travel of the main module, and protrude relative to the main module along a direction perpendicular to the direction of travel of the main module to form side wings. The bottom of the auxiliary modules is a first inclined surface formed by sloping upward from the bottom edge of the main module and extending to the middle of the main module, and the top of the auxiliary modules is a second inclined surface formed by sloping downward from the top edge of the main module and extending to the middle of the main module. The main module is connected to and sealed with the two auxiliary modules.

[0032] The main compartment of this amphibious module is capable of operating on water or land. When on water, it can float or move under the action of a drive mechanism. When on land, it can be parked or move under the action of external force. Furthermore, the main compartment of this module has a secondary compartment on each of its front and rear sides along the direction of travel. The secondary compartment protrudes from the left and right sides of the main compartment relative to the direction of travel to form wings. The bottom of the secondary compartment is a first inclined surface formed by the bottom edge of the main compartment sloping upward and extending to the middle of the main compartment. The top of the secondary compartment is a second inclined surface formed by the top edge of the main compartment sloping downward and extending to the middle of the main compartment. At the same time, the main compartment and the two secondary compartments are connected and sealed.

[0033] Thus, the amphibious cabin disclosed herein can be adapted to working environments on water or land. The two auxiliary cabins can increase its usable space, and the first inclined surface of the auxiliary cabin can reduce the drag of the amphibious cabin during movement. The second inclined surface of the auxiliary cabin can reduce the windward area and reduce the thrust of strong winds on the cabin. On the other hand, the wind force is diverted along the inclined surface, reducing the interference of wind force on the stability of the cabin. In this way, the amphibious cabin disclosed herein can be adapted to various environments and can be used as a multi-purpose cabin such as a traveler's home, a field work station, a coastal or lakeside scenic house, an emergency rescue cabin, a border guard post, and a supply station.

[0034] For ease of understanding, please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 7 The specific structure and working principle of the amphibious cabin provided in this disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the embodiments.

[0035] In one embodiment, the amphibious module of this disclosure includes a main module and two auxiliary modules. The main module is configured to float or be propelled by a drive mechanism when on water, and to be parked or propelled by an external force when on land. The two auxiliary modules are arranged opposite to each other on both sides of the main module along the direction of travel of the main module, and protrude relative to the main module along the direction of travel of the main module to form side wings 22. The bottom of the auxiliary module is a first inclined surface 211 formed by sloping upward from the bottom edge of the main module and extending to the middle of the main module, and the top of the auxiliary module is a second inclined surface 212 formed by sloping downward from the top edge of the main module and extending to the middle of the main module. The main module is connected to and sealed with the two auxiliary modules.

[0036] In detail, the main cabin disclosed herein can operate on water or land. When on water, it can float stably by relying on its own structure, or it can move flexibly along a preset trajectory or a specified direction by being powered by a drive mechanism. When on land, it can adapt to various terrains such as flat ground and gentle slopes to achieve stable parking, and can be moved with the assistance of the rollers 32 under external traction to meet the parking and movement needs after switching between water and land scenarios.

[0037] Furthermore, combined Figure 4 The main cabin of this disclosure has a secondary cabin on each of its front and rear sides along the direction of travel. Each secondary cabin protrudes to form a wing 22 on the left and right sides of the main cabin, perpendicular to the direction of travel. Optionally, the wing 22 on the left and right sides are symmetrically arranged with respect to the direction of travel. Without compromising the core spaces of the main cabin, such as living and resting areas, the secondary cabins are independent functional areas that do not require additional space in the main cabin. They can be used as viewing windows, storage rooms, or equipment maintenance rooms, thereby improving the overall utilization efficiency of the cabin.

[0038] The auxiliary compartment has a first inclined surface 211 at its bottom, formed by the upward slope of the bottom of the main compartment extending to the middle of the main compartment, and a second inclined surface 212 at its top, formed by the downward slope of the top of the main compartment extending to the middle of the main compartment. The main compartment is connected to both auxiliary compartments and is sealed. The structure of the first inclined surface 211 and the second inclined surface 212 reduces the drag of the compartment when moving on water and also reduces wind resistance during land movement, making it suitable for road traction scenarios. This reduces the energy consumption of the tractor unit, minimizes wind noise and compartment sway in strong winds, and improves stability during movement.

[0039] Furthermore, combining Figure 4 The amphibious capsule disclosed herein has a metal frame, which is fixed together by welding, riveting, and bolting. Specifically, the frame can be an aluminum alloy structure or a composite structure frame to ensure that the capsule can float on water and has sufficient strength to adapt to various environments. Windows with tempered laminated glass can be installed on the top of the capsule and the left and right sides of the main cabin. In addition, the outer side of the capsule is covered with a metal skin to form a panel, and the gaps are filled with sealing strips to ensure the sealing performance of the amphibious capsule and prevent water leakage. The inner walls and floor are made of wood, and thermal insulation, waterproofing, fireproofing, sound insulation, sealing, and radiation protection materials can be installed between the panel and the inner walls to form a composite capsule that fully protects the safety of the personnel inside.

[0040] The cabin is equipped with lighting fixtures both inside and outside. The internal lighting fixtures mainly serve as the main indoor lighting, providing a sufficient and uniform lighting environment for activities inside the cabin. The external lighting fixtures are evenly distributed around the cabin and on the top to display the cabin's outline, serve as exterior decoration, and display emergency distress signals on the top. In a crisis, these fixtures not only guide rescuers to quickly locate the target and carry out rescue work, but also create favorable conditions for the people inside the cabin to carry out self-rescue.

[0041] See Figure 4 and Figure 6 In one embodiment of this disclosure, along the direction of travel perpendicular to the main cabin, the bottom of the side wing 22 is a third inclined surface 221 formed by the edge of the first inclined surface 211 tilting upward and extending to the middle of the main cabin, and the top of the side wing 22 is a fourth inclined surface 222 formed by the edge of the second inclined surface 212 tilting downward and extending to the middle of the main cabin.

[0042] In detail, the wing 22 extends to the left and right sides from the edges of the first inclined surface 211 and the second inclined surface 212 of the auxiliary cabin, while tilting towards the center of the main cabin, and connecting to the upper and lower sides of the frame with a preset height in the center of the main cabin. In this way, the first inclined surface 211 and the third inclined surface 221, the second inclined surface 212 and the fourth inclined surface 222 are at the same height perpendicular to the working surface, forming a symmetrical cabin structure.

[0043] The side wing 22 of this disclosure forms a flow guiding structure. The third inclined surface 221 and the fourth inclined surface 222 guide the airflow or water flow along a preset path, reducing the generation of eddies, avoiding direct impact from strong winds, and also preventing the impact noise generated by rainwater impacting the plane, thus improving the quietness of the cabin. Rainwater and snow can quickly slide off along the third inclined surface 221 and the fourth inclined surface 222, avoiding accumulation and reducing the erosion of the plate joints and sealing strips by rain and snow.

[0044] The side wings 22 on both sides form a three-dimensional structure with the middle of the auxiliary cabin gradually rising and narrowing on both sides. The third inclined surface 221 and the fourth inclined surface 222 of the side wings 22 form a triangular support, which improves the frontal impact resistance and thus protects the main cabin structure.

[0045] See Figure 1 In one embodiment of this disclosure, the amphibious cabin further includes two connecting covers 13, which are disposed opposite to each other on the top of the main cabin along the direction of travel perpendicular to the main cabin, and are respectively connected to two side wings 22 on the corresponding side to block the space between the two side wings 22.

[0046] Specifically, two connecting cover plates 13 are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the top of the main cabin and are sealed to the two side wings 22 on the corresponding sides. Optionally, the connecting cover plates 13 are sealed to the edges of the two fourth inclined surfaces 222 on the corresponding sides.

[0047] In this way, sheltered spaces can be formed on the left and right sides of the main cabin and the corresponding two side wings 22. A drainage structure with a high center and low sides can be formed on the top of the amphibious cabin of this disclosure. Rainwater can slide directly down the inclined plate to the ground, avoiding water accumulation at the top edge and seams. Furthermore, photovoltaic panels 31 can be installed on the top of the main cabin and the upper side of the connecting cover plate 13. Therefore, the connecting cover plate 13 of this disclosure can prevent the sealing strip of the photovoltaic panel 31 installation interface from leaking due to water accumulation, and reduce the adhesion of dust, fallen leaves, bird droppings and other debris. In winter, snow can slide naturally down the inclined surface, avoiding snow accumulation on the top.

[0048] Meanwhile, the connecting cover plates 13 on both sides form a streamlined overall profile with the first inclined surface 211, the second inclined surface 212, the third inclined surface 221 and the fourth inclined surface 222 of the auxiliary compartment. When towing on the road, the airflow flows smoothly along the connecting cover plates 13, reducing airflow separation and vortex generation at the top and reducing the energy consumption of the towing vehicle. When parked in a strong wind environment, the connecting cover plates 13 can distribute the load and further improve the ability to resist wind overturning.

[0049] See Figure 1In one embodiment, the amphibious cabin of this disclosure further includes a plurality of support legs 12, a hatch 11, and two connecting plates 14, wherein the plurality of support legs 12 raise the main cabin relative to the working surface by a predetermined height; the hatch 11 is disposed on the side wall of the main cabin; the two connecting plates 14 are rotatably disposed opposite each other on the bottom sides of the main cabin, and each connecting plate 14 is configured to rotate between a first position and a second position under the action of an external force; when in the first position, the connecting plate 14 is sealed to the two side wings 22 on the corresponding side to block the hatch 11; when in the second position, the connecting plate 14 is tilted downward to have a predetermined gap or overlap with the working surface, so as to facilitate entry into the hatch 11 from the working surface.

[0050] Specifically, when the amphibious cabin is in place, the support legs 12 are hydraulically driven and retractable at the bottom of the main cabin. Hydraulic piston rods push the support legs downwards, lifting the cabin and raising it to a preset height relative to the working surface. This suspends the bottom rollers 32 in the air, unloading the load on the rollers 32 and preventing rubber aging and bearing corrosion during long-term storage, thus improving the cabin's stability. Simultaneously, a hatch 11 is located on one of the left or right sides of the main cabin for personnel entry and exit.

[0051] Based on this, two connecting plates 14 are rotatably mounted opposite each other on the bottom left and right sides of the main cabin along a direction perpendicular to the main cabin's travel direction. Each connecting plate 14 can rotate to a first position or a second position under external force. When the connecting plate 14 is in the first position, it is sealed to the two side wings 22 on the corresponding side to block and shield the hatch 11. Optionally, the two sides of the connecting plate 14 are sealed to the edges of the two third inclined surfaces 221 on the corresponding side. In this way, a streamlined overall structure can be formed, increasing the buoyancy of the amphibious cabin in water and avoiding violent impacts between the bottom surface and the water flow. To reduce energy loss during navigation, the water flows smoothly along the hull surface, reducing eddy currents. Furthermore, in one embodiment, when the connecting plate 14 is in the first position, it is sealed to the upper connecting cover plate 13. This prevents water from entering the inside of the connecting plate 14 when traveling on water, or prevents rain and snow from blowing in when on land, increasing the stability and safety of the hull. When the hull is parked, the connecting plate 14 can be in the second position and tilted downwards to have a preset gap with the working surface or overlap with the working surface, so that personnel can enter the hatch 11 from the working surface.

[0052] See Figure 1 and Figure 5 In one embodiment of this disclosure, the angle between the first inclined surface 211 and the direction of travel is 15°-35°; and / or, the angle between the second inclined surface 212 and the direction of travel is 15°-35°.

[0053] Thus, the angle between the first inclined surface 211 and the direction of travel is 15°-35°. The first inclined surface 211 forms a flow-guiding structure in the underwater part, allowing water to flow smoothly along the inclined surface, reducing eddy current generation. The load can be evenly transferred to the frame along the inclined surface, avoiding concentrated stress on the vertical structure and reducing the risk of deformation and cracking. Correspondingly, the third inclined surface 221 and the first inclined surface 211 both extend to the middle of the main compartment. Therefore, the angle between the third inclined surface 221 and the direction of travel is the same as that of the first inclined surface 211. The lateral resistance of the underwater part is smaller, and the water can flow quickly from the left and right sides when turning. In addition, when parked on land, it forms a flow-guiding ventilation gap between the bottom of the auxiliary compartment and the working surface, preventing ground water and humid gas from directly contacting the bottom of the compartment and reducing corrosion of connection nodes and bottom pipelines.

[0054] In one embodiment, the angle between the second inclined surface 212 and the direction of travel is 15°-35°. The second inclined surface 212 is highly compatible with the optimal light-receiving tilt angle of the photovoltaic panel 31, allowing the photovoltaic panel 31 to be laid directly without the need for additional support. The tilt angle ensures that rainwater and snow slide off quickly, preventing debris from covering the surface of the photovoltaic panel 31 and maintaining the stability of power generation efficiency. Correspondingly, the fourth inclined surface 222 and the second inclined surface 212 both extend to the middle of the main cabin. Therefore, the angle between the fourth inclined surface 222 and the direction of travel is the same as that of the second inclined surface 212, forming a streamlined wrap-around structure. After working together with the main cabin and the side wings 22, the overall wind resistance is reduced. When towing on the highway, the airflow flows smoothly along the inclined surface, reducing frontal wind pressure and vortex generation. When parked in a strong wind environment, the inclined surface can disperse the wind load.

[0055] See Figure 1 and Figure 5 In one embodiment, the first inclined surface 211 and the second inclined surface 212 of this disclosure are symmetrically arranged with respect to the middle of the main cabin.

[0056] Thus, the first inclined surface 211 and the second inclined surface 212 are symmetrical with respect to the middle of the main cabin, so that the tensile and compressive forces borne by the cabin frame are symmetrically distributed, reducing local stress concentration; during travel, the airflow flows smoothly along the top, while the symmetrical structure at the bottom prevents the airflow from forming vortices at the bottom, thus reducing the overall wind resistance; in addition, it can realize the common use of some component molds, the consistent structure of the frame reinforcing ribs, and the uniform specifications of the sealing strips, reducing manufacturing costs.

[0057] See Figure 4 and Figure 7 In one embodiment, the main cabin of this disclosure is a square main cabin, and the first inclined surface 211 and the second inclined surface 212 are square inclined surfaces. Along the direction perpendicular to the travel direction, the width of the first inclined surface 211 and the second inclined surface 212 is equal to the width of the main cabin.

[0058] In this way, the square main cabin and the square first inclined surface 211 and second inclined surface 212 of the same width are completely connected, rather than a stepped connection with a transition between width and narrowness. The connection is more stable. When the frame is connected, it can be directly aligned, and the force is evenly transmitted, reducing local stress concentration. When moving, it avoids the force imbalance caused by the uneven width between the main cabin and the first inclined surface 211 and the second inclined surface 212, and improves the crosswind resistance. When parked, the support legs 12 can be evenly distributed along the width direction, reducing the risk of local ground subsidence.

[0059] See Figure 1 and Figure 7 In one embodiment of this disclosure, the middle portion of the side wing 22 on the same side is fixedly connected by a connector 23.

[0060] Thus, on both sides of the main cabin, the middle of the side wings 22 on the same side is rigidly connected by the connector 23 to provide lateral support. Since the side wings 22 are only connected to the auxiliary cabin through the root, they are prone to lateral bending and torsional deformation due to their protruding length. The connection of the middle of the side wings 22 on the same side forms a closed frame, which improves rigidity. The connector 23 can transfer the force of the two side wings 22 to the whole, reducing the stress concentration at the root of the side wings 22. The connector 23 makes the two side wings 22 on the same side consistent in position, so there is no need to adjust the parallelism of the side wings 22 separately during installation.

[0061] Furthermore, the upper connecting cover plate 13 and the lower connecting plate 14 can be sealed to the upper and lower sides of the connector 23 respectively, to prevent rainwater, dust and debris from entering the space between the side wings 22 on the same side and causing water accumulation on the inside of the connecting plate 14.

[0062] See Figure 1 In one embodiment of this disclosure, the connecting plate 14 is rotatably mounted on the main cabin via a four-bar linkage.

[0063] A hinged four-bar linkage is a closed-loop mechanism formed by connecting a frame, a driving link, a driven link, and a connecting link through hinges. The hinged four-bar linkage used in this disclosure is specifically a double rocker mechanism, that is, the driving link and the driven link can only swing. The length of the driving link is greater than the length of the frame, but less than the length of the driven link and the connecting link.

[0064] The frame is rigidly connected to the skeleton at the bottom of the main cabin, serving as a fixed component. One end of the drive rod is rotatably connected to the frame via a hinge and equipped with a motor as power input. The motor's output shaft is drive-connected to the end of the drive rod connected to the frame, thereby driving the drive rod to swing. The other end of the drive rod is hinged to one end of the driven rod via a connecting rod. The driven rod is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 14, bearing the weight of the connecting plate 14 and external loads. The other end of the driven rod is rotatably connected to the frame via a hinge. Thus, under the action of the motor, the drive rod pulls the connecting rod to move, thereby pulling the driven rod to swing, and simultaneously pulling or pushing the connecting plate 14 to rotate to a first position or a second position. Furthermore, one side of the connecting plate 14 is connected to the main cabin via at least two hinged four-bar linkages to increase the strength and stability of the connection.

[0065] In one embodiment, the connecting plate 14 is rotatably mounted on the main cabin via a telescopic rod mechanism. Specifically, the present disclosure may employ a pneumatically controlled telescopic rod, which includes a cylinder, a piston rod, a piston assembly, and a solenoid valve. The cylinder end is rotatably connected to the frame at the bottom of the main cabin via a bearing. One end of the piston rod is rotatably mounted on the connecting plate 14 via a bearing, and the other end is provided with a piston head and inserted into the cylinder.

[0066] The user controls the solenoid valve via the control unit to open the cylinder. The pressure in the rodless chamber rises rapidly, while the pressure in the rod chamber drops, pushing the piston rod out of the cylinder and causing the connecting plate 14 to open downwards, achieving a slow and smooth opening. The user also controls the solenoid valve via the control unit to close the cylinder. The rodless chamber begins to exhaust air, while the rod chamber begins to intake air. The pressure in the rod chamber rises, and the pressure in the rodless chamber drops, creating a pressure difference on both sides of the piston head. The piston rod then slowly retracts, pulling the connecting plate 14 to close. Furthermore, one side of the connecting plate 14 is connected to the main compartment via at least two telescopic rod mechanisms to increase the strength and stability of the connection.

[0067] Furthermore, the connecting plate 14 is also equipped with a mechanical locking mechanism, which engages with the frame when the connecting plate 14 is closed to ensure safe closure. Specifically, the edge of the connecting plate 14 that mates with the frame has a guide groove, and a through sliding groove is formed perpendicular to the extension direction of the guide groove. A locking tongue is connected to the guide groove via an elastic element, and a guide ramp is constructed on the locking tongue. Simultaneously, a lever is fixedly installed on the locking tongue perpendicular to its extension direction, extending from the sliding groove for user operation. Correspondingly, the frame has a lock hole that mates with the locking tongue. When in contact with the frame, the four locking tongues are compressed and retracted into the guide groove, compressing the elastic element. When the connecting plate 14 is closed, the locking tongue aligns with the lock hole on the frame, the elastic element releases its elastic potential energy, pushing the locking tongue out and inserting it into the lock hole. To unlock, the user operates the lever along the sliding groove, causing the locking tongue to overcome the elastic force of the elastic element and retract backward along the guide groove, disengaging from the lock hole on the frame, thereby opening the connecting plate 14.

[0068] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment of this disclosure, the drive mechanism includes a power source and a propeller 15, which is rotatably disposed below the bottom of the main cabin and is drive-connected to the power source, and is configured to rotate under the action of the power source to drive the main cabin forward.

[0069] In detail, a cylindrical protective tube extending along the direction of travel of the main cabin is fixedly installed below the main cabin, and a grid or filter screen is installed on its front side. The propeller 15 is rotatably installed inside the protective tube, and its rotation axis is collinear with the central axis of the protective tube. In this way, it can effectively prevent underwater foreign objects such as aquatic plants, fishing nets, ropes, driftwood, and reefs from contacting the propeller 15, avoiding blade entanglement or blade impact damage, and also avoiding the twisting of the transmission shaft caused by blade entanglement, thus protecting the core components of the transmission system. At the same time, the protective tube can limit the diffusion of water flow, making the thrust more concentrated and improving the propulsion efficiency. When the propeller 15 rotates at high speed, the protective tube can prevent underwater workers and aquatic organisms from being scratched by the blades.

[0070] Furthermore, the power source can be an engine or an electric motor, which is usually integrated at the bottom of the main cabin. The propeller 15 is directly arranged below the bottom of the main cabin, minimizing the length of the transmission components and reducing power loss during transmission.

[0071] Furthermore, two drive mechanisms are evenly arranged below the main cabin along the direction of travel. The control unit controls both sides to work simultaneously to achieve forward movement, and controls the propeller 15 on one side to rotate while the propeller 15 on the other side stops to achieve steering.

[0072] See Figure 1In one embodiment of this disclosure, a solar collector tube 41 employing a spiral collector is installed on the fourth inclined surface 222 of the side wing 22. The collected heat is transferred to three independent circuits via a control unit: an air heating circuit, a domestic hot water circuit, and an external discharge circuit. Control is achieved through sensor detection. When the indoor temperature is below 26°C, the system prioritizes the air heating circuit to maintain a constant indoor temperature, and then supplies heat to the domestic hot water circuit, with the water tank providing domestic hot water. Hot water is primarily heated via the solar collector tube 41. If the solar collector tube 41 is insufficient, electric heating is used to heat the water tank to ensure normal use of domestic hot water for users. Excess heat, after satisfying the needs of the air heating circuit and the domestic hot water circuit, is discharged through the external discharge circuit or used for other purposes.

[0073] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the auxiliary compartment is provided with a water storage tank 42, a greywater treatment device 43, and a rainwater treatment device 44.

[0074] Water tank 42 is equipped with ultraviolet sterilization. The water in it is converted into potable water through ultrafiltration. Washing water is stored separately. Wastewater is discharged into the sewage tank after use and used to supply water for toilet flushing. The wastewater is treated centrally after environmental degradation.

[0075] The greywater can replenish the wastewater tank, ensuring normal operation for users. Simultaneously, greywater can be collected in the drainage pan at the bottom of the tank, and after simple filtration and ultraviolet sterilization by the greywater treatment device 43, it flows back into the greywater tank and is transformed into usable greywater, achieving a closed-loop recycling system and ultimately realizing efficient water resource utilization.

[0076] Rainwater undergoes coarse filtration through a filter screen on the top of the cabin. The filtered rainwater then flows through a pipe to the sedimentation tank of the rainwater treatment device 44 for 48 hours of sedimentation, separating usable water resources from the rainwater and filtering out fine silt. The settled water is further filtered in a sand filter using perlite, transforming it into usable greywater, which finally flows into a greywater tank for ultraviolet disinfection. This process achieves rainwater collection and treatment, resulting in the efficient utilization of rainwater resources.

[0077] See Figure 2 In one embodiment of this disclosure, a winch 36 and a wire rope are provided at the bottom of the main cabin. One end of the wire rope is attached to the winch 36 and wound around it, while the other end is fixed to the anchor hook for easy traction and towing.

[0078] See Figure 1 and Figure 2In one embodiment of this disclosure, an antenna 33 is also installed on the top of the main cabin to facilitate the maintenance of communication signals. At the same time, a lightning rod 341 is also installed on the top of the main cabin. Correspondingly, external interlocking chains 342 are provided at the ends of the square auxiliary cabin and the ends of the side wings 22. The lightning rod 341 and the external interlocking chains 342 are electromagnetically linked to form a grounded lightning protection device.

[0079] In addition, a micro wind generator 35 is installed on the top of the main cabin. The four micro wind generators 35 disclosed herein are located inside the four sharp corners of the square main cabin. The storage battery is installed in the auxiliary cabin to store the excess electrical energy generated by the power generation equipment. There is also an external power module to facilitate power supply to other external equipment.

[0080] See Figure 1 In one embodiment of this disclosure, the amphibious cabin can be used in conjunction with the underground protective space 51. The ground cabin is a structure that is wind-resistant, rainproof, and resistant to daily damage, resisting conventional risks such as typhoons, rainstorms, blizzards, and malicious human damage, filtering out most non-extreme threats. The underground protective space 51 can provide core protection against extreme risks. The underground environment has small temperature fluctuations and stable humidity, which can realize the long-term storage of materials and equipment, avoiding deterioration and aging caused by drastic changes in temperature and humidity in the ground environment. When encountering sudden risks, personnel can come out of the cabin and quickly enter the underground protective space 51 for protection.
