The present invention relates to the technical field of ships, and particularly relates to an underwater floating body and an installation method thereof. The floating body includes sub-cabins and pressure resistant cabins, symmetrically arranged sub-cabins are arranged at the left and right sides of the floating body, the sub-cabins are arranged at the front and back sides of the floating body, the buoyant force provided by the sub-cabins at the front side of the floating body is larger than the buoyant force provided by the sub-cabins at the back side of the floating body, or the buoyant force provided by the sub-cabins at the back side of the floating body is larger than the buoyant force provided by the sub-cabins at the front side of the floating body. The pressure resistant cabins penetrate through the sub-cabins and are fixedly connected with the bulkheads of the sub-cabins. The buoyant center of the floating body and the gravity center of the floating body are located on the same vertical line, and the position of the buoyant center of the floating body is higher than the position of the gravity center of the floating body. An inflation valve is arranged on each pressure resistant cabin, and a ventilating system and a water supply system are arranged on each sub-cabin. The method includes: inflating the pressure resistant cabins and filling water into the sub-cabins; putting the underwater floating body in a working water area; inflating the sub-cabins to discharge a part of water in the sub-cabins, so as to enable the sub-cabins to generate an upward buoyant force. According to the underwater floating body and the installation method thereof provided by the present invention, the underwater floating body can arrive at the working water area at one step, thereby saving a large amount of manpower and material resources. |
