Floating horizontal platform D, Figs.6, 7, 8 and 9, is made of polyethylene in foe form of a plate. The height of the floating horizontal platform D is such that it accommodates the first hexagonal circular wreath 1 and the second hexagonal circular wreath 2 of the underwater pipe structure B wherein the upper ends of the six vertical pipes 6 of the underwater pipe structure B pass through the platform D and protrude above it. Three protrusions 9 of the second hexagonal circular wreath 2 from the underwater pipe structure 8 also pass through the platform D and protrude above it. The interior of the floating horizontal platform is filled with styrofoam or polyurethane foam
Roof structure E
Roof structure E, Fig.10, 11 and 12, is an object of different purposes: residential, business, entertainment, cultural and the like. The roof structure E is round in shape due to its aerodynamics and resistance to strong winds. The roof structure E is placed on a floating horizontal platform D so that it completely covers the above-water pipe structure C. From the roof structure E to the floating horizontal platform D, in a circle a round transparent wall 17 with sliding doors in several places is placed, so that the whole space can be opened for good weather and closed during bad weather. An insulating cover is placed on the roof structure E together with photovoltaic panels 18 for the production of electricity for the needs of floating object A. Due to the configuration of the roof structure with a central opening through the entire unsinkable floating object, it is possible to install a wind turbine mast to generate electricity
In order to increase the stability of the floating unsinkable object A in the lower part of the underwater pipe structure 8, the load should be twice as large as all the load on the
floating horizontai platform D above the water surface. This is achieved in several ways, namely.
••• by weights suspended from the lower ends of vertical pipes 6 and 8,
••• by installation of lightweight materials in hexagonal circular wreath 1. 2, 3 and the upper parts of vertical pipes 6 and 8 with a narrowed diameter for air flow,
••• byinstallation of heavier materials in the lower parts of vertical pipes 6 and 8 with a narrowed diameter for sea flow,
••• by installing batteries for storing electricity in the lower part of the underwater structure B so that they do not interfere with the circulation of the sea between the vertical pipes 6 and 8 below the floating horizontal platform D
This all contributes to improving the load-bearing capacity of the floating platform D. and in case of failure of the air valves ensures constant stability of the platform. fovenrfon functioning
When there are no waves at sea. the air valves 16, which are installed in the transverse pipe connections 13 in the above-water pipe structure C, open, Fig .17 and 9, so that the sea freely enters the vertical pipes 6 and 8 of the underwater pipe structure B from the lower side, whereby air is expelled through the opened air valves 16 In this case, the floating unsinkable object A descends to the calm surface of the sea, Fig.13, and the floating horizontal platform D carries the entire weight of the floating unsinkable object A When larger waves occur at sea that would rock the floating object A, air pumps are turned on which, through the air valves 16, inject air into the vertical pipes of the underwater and above-water pipe structure. The injected air pushes the sea out of the vertical pipes, as a result of which the entire floating object A becomes lighter and rises above the surface of the sea and the sinusoid of the wave, Fig.14. in this case, the waves pass freely between the vertical pipes through the underwater pipe structure B and do not cause the object to swing and there is no danger of sinking it. By calming the waves, the air from the vertical pipes is released so that the sea re-enters the vertical pipes, and the horizontal platform D again takes on the weight of the floating object A.
To avoid the influence of a sea wave with a sinusoid of 4 meters in height it is sufficient to raise floating object A only two meters above the level of the calm sea
The third hexagonal circular wreath 3 must always be below the projected sinusoid of the wave because rt is of the largest diameter and holds the stability of the entire underwater pipe structure B.
The floating unsinkable object A, according to the present invention, is anchored on the obtained concessions, and can be placed on all water surfaces such as: sea, lake, river and pools.
Given the chemical and mechanical conditions to which the pipe structures B and C are exposed in the sea, for their production it is recommended to use materials of appropriate strength and quality.

7. APPLICATION OF THE INVENTION
A floating unsinkable object which is not rocking on sea waves can be used at sea and in freshwater. The application of a floating unsinkable object is for various purposes, so that on a floating horizontal platform, outdoors or indoors, production, service, trade, entertainment or sports activities and their combinations can be organized, and a residential building can be built. Given the stability of the floating unsinkable object, it can also be used as a floating power plant that will use the sun, wind, waves and sea currents to produce electricity. The design and appearance of the roof structure, which is mounted on a floating horizontal platform, in this case adapts to this content.
