Abstract
An artificial floating island includes a lower mounting and an upper mounting. The upper mounting includes a bottom wall and a surrounding wall that cooperatively define an internal space. The surrounding wall has service openings and root through holes. The upper mounting has internal blocks, each having a block body that is connected between the bottom wall and the surrounding wall, and that defines a service space disposed outside of the upper mounting and being in communication with a respective one of the service openings. The lower mounting is coupled to the upper mounting and has an outer surface that is formed with a plurality of guiding troughs.

An artificial floating island comprising:
- an upper mounting that includes
- a bottom wall formed with a root opening,
- an extension wall extending downwards from a peripheral edge of said root opening of said bottom wall, and defining a root space that is in communication with said root opening,
- a surrounding wall extending upwards from a periphery of said bottom wall and cooperating with said bottom wall to define an internal space, said surrounding wall having a plurality of service openings, and
- a plurality of internal blocks, each having a block body that is connected between said bottom wall and said surrounding wall, and that defines a service space disposed outside of said upper mounting and being in communication with a respective one of said service openings;
- and
- a lower mounting that is coupled to said upper mounting, said lower and upper mountings being arranged in an up-down direction, said lower mounting having an outer surface that is formed with a plurality of guiding troughs;
- wherein said bottom wall has:
- a first wall section that is connected to a top end of said extension wall;
- a second wall section that extends inwards from a bottom end of said surrounding wall and that is above said first wall section in the up-down direction;
- and
- a shoulder section that interconnects said first wall section and said second wall section.
