The first baffle 33 and the second baffle 34 are respectively disposed inside the accommodation cavities 11 of the adjacent two floating bodies 1. The connecting shaft 3 is connected with the adjacent two floating bodies 1 through a first baffle 33 and a second baffle 34. The first baffle 33 and the second baffle 34 respectively connected to the two ends of the connecting shaft 3 in the embodiment of the present invention are only an example, and should not be construed as limiting the shape of the two ends of the connecting shaft 3.
Optionally, the second elastic member may further adopt a spring 7, and the connecting shaft 3 includes a first section 35 and a second section 36, where the first section 35 and the second section 36 are respectively disposed in the accommodating cavities 11 of the two adjacent floating bodies 1 in a penetrating manner;
the spring 7 is sleeved on the first section 35 and the second section 36 respectively, and the outer diameters of the spring 7 are smaller than the diameters of the first baffle 33 and the second baffle 34;
the diameter of the cavity mouth of the accommodating cavity 11 is not larger than the outer diameter of the spring 7.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 10 and 11, it is shown that the connecting shaft 3 includes a first section 35 and a second section 36, where the first section 35 and the second section 36 respectively penetrate inside the accommodating chambers 11 of the adjacent two floating bodies 1, and the second elastic member may also use a spring 7, where the first section 35 and the second section 36 respectively are sleeved with the spring 7, and the outer diameter of the spring 7 is not smaller than the diameter of the cavity opening of the accommodating chamber 11, so as to avoid the spring 7 from sliding out of the accommodating chamber 11. Because connecting axle 3 holds chamber 11 sliding connection, when first section 35 and second section 36 are holding chamber 11 internal activity, spring 7 receives the extrusion and takes place deformation, plays the cushioning effect, avoids the instantaneous atress of body array too big. Wherein the outer diameter of the spring 7 is smaller than the diameters of the first baffle plate 33 and the second baffle plate 34, so that the spring 7 is prevented from sliding out of the connecting shaft 3 in the process of being deformed under the force. The spring 7 used for the second elastic member in the embodiment of the present invention is only an example, and should not be construed as limiting the second elastic member.
Optionally, a rotatable bearing 51 is disposed at the cavity opening of the accommodating cavity 11, and the connecting shaft 3 is disposed through the bearing 51. The outer surface of the bearing 51 is provided with an annular cambered surface 511, the diameter of the middle part of the annular cambered surface 511 is larger than the diameters of the two ends of the annular cambered surface 511, an annular groove 512 is formed in the cavity opening of the accommodating cavity 11, the inner wall of the annular groove 512 is matched with the annular cambered surface 511, and the bearing 51 is clamped in the annular groove 512.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 12 and 13, it is shown that the cavity mouth of the accommodating cavity 11 is provided with a rotatable bearing 51, the connecting shaft 3 is penetrated through the bearing 51, and the rotatable bearing 51 can implement rotation of the connecting shaft 3 in all directions, so as to adapt to the floating of the floating body 1 in all directions on the water surface. The outer surface of the bearing 51 is provided with an annular cambered surface 511, and the diameter of the middle part of the annular cambered surface 511 is larger than that of the two ends, so that the bearing 51 is in a shape with a wide middle part and narrow two ends. The cavity mouth of the accommodating cavity 11 is provided with an annular groove 512 matched with the annular cambered surface 511, and the annular cambered surface 511 of the bearing 51 is clamped in the annular groove 512. The shape of the bearing 51 with the wider middle and the narrower ends effectively prevents the bearing 51 from sliding out when the bearing 51 rotates in the annular groove 512. The shape of the bearing 511 in the embodiment of the present invention is only one example, and should not be construed as limiting the shape of the bearing 51.
Optionally, in the static state, the lengths of the first section 35 and the second section 36 are equal to each other, and the springs 7 penetrate through the first section 35 and the second section 36.

Working principle: the plurality of floating bodies 1 are connected through a connecting device 2 to form a floating body array, and the connecting device 2 comprises a connecting shaft 3, a first elastic piece 4 and at least two second elastic pieces. Wherein, the end of the connecting shaft 3 can rotate and slide left and right in any direction in the accommodating cavity 11. The two ends of the connecting shaft 3 are respectively penetrated in the accommodating cavities 11 of the two adjacent floating bodies 1. The first elastic piece 4 is sleeved on the connecting shaft 3 and is positioned between the two adjacent floating bodies 1, and the first elastic piece 4 penetrates through the connecting shaft 3 between the two adjacent floating bodies 1. At least one second elastic piece is sleeved at the two ends of the connecting shaft 3 respectively, and the second elastic piece is arranged in the accommodating cavity 11. The connecting shaft 3, the first elastic piece 4, the second elastic piece and the connecting shaft 3 are connected with the accommodating cavity 11 of the floating body 1, so that the connecting device 2 is flexibly connected with the floating body 1.
When two adjacent floating bodies 1 move in opposite directions, the first elastic piece 4 is extruded by the two floating bodies 1, bears pressure and transmits load, the first elastic piece 4 plays a role in relieving the instant acting force borne by the two adjacent floating bodies 1, and meanwhile, the second elastic pieces sleeved at two ends of the connecting shaft 3 are extruded to deform, so that the buffer effect is achieved, the load borne by the internal structure of the floating body array is reduced, and the damage caused by overlarge bearing load of the floating body array is avoided. When two adjacent floating bodies 1 move away from each other, the connecting shaft 3 bears the tension ratio to transfer load, the two end parts of the connecting shaft 3 bear the outward tension, the second elastic pieces sleeved at the two end parts of the connecting shaft 3 are extruded to deform, the buffering effect is achieved, and the tension borne by the floating body array instantaneously is reduced, so that the floating body array is prevented from being damaged due to overlarge bearing load. When the floating body 1 floats up and down along with the water surface, the second elastic pieces sleeved at the two ends of the connecting shaft 3 are extruded to deform, so that the buffering effect is achieved, and the damage caused by overlarge bearing load of the floating body array is avoided.
