FIELD: floating structures for natural basins; autonomous stations of ecological monitoring. SUBSTANCE: buoy has cylindrical housing possessing positive buoyancy; axis of buoy is oriented by normal relative to average position of water surface of basin. Dampening platform 3 connected with lower portion of housing is oriented orthogonally relative to axis of housing by plane of maximum section. Specific feature of proposed buoy consists in form of dampening platform 3 which is concave-concave and has two hemispheres 5 and 6 with concavities directed towards each other. Platform is located between center of buoyancy and center of mass of buoy and is provided with through hole 7 whose axis coincides with axis of housing. Edges of dampening platform are engageable with circular fairing over entire circumference. Form of fairing is close to tear-shaped in radial section. EFFECT: enhanced stabilization of buoy position due to reduced amplitude of angular oscillations in case of swell on water surface. 2 cl, 9 dwg |
