Abstract
A buoyant dynamic ornament includes a water storage tank, a transparent buoyant tank, a plurality of floats, and a water level control. By the water level control, the water flowing in and out the water storage tank and the buoyant tank is controlled and the water level varies so as to provide the floats buoyancy. Thus the floats rise or sink according to the variation of water level. At the same time, the figures or light on the floats also moves up and down. The dynamic decorative effect is achieved.

A buoyant dynamic ornament in accordance comprising
- a water storage tank, a transparent buoyant tank, a plurality of floats, and a water level control,
- wherein the water storage tank for storing and recycling water having an outlet and an inlet, each is connected to the buoyant tank respectively;
- the buoyant tank having an inlet and an outlet is a transparent container with certain depth;
- the inlet of the buoyant tank is connected to the outlet of the water storage tank and water is drained from the outlet of the water storage tank and then through the inlet of the buoyant tank, into the buoyant tank by the operation of the water level control;
- the outlet of the buoyant tank is connected to the inlet of the water storage tank and water flows from the outlet of the buoyant tank, through the inlet of the water storage tank, into the water storage tank;
- thus water is in circulation;
- the water level control is disposed between the water storage tank and the buoyant tank and is composed of a water pump and a valve;
- by regulating the water amount in and out the water storage tank and the buoyant tank, the water level inside the buoyant tank changes;
- the floats are hollow closed containers and are distributed inside the buoyant tank;
- a soft and tiny tube with certain length is used to connect two contiguous floats;
- the water level control is used to make the water flow from the water storage tank to the buoyant tank, thus the floats inside the buoyant tank rise gradually due to the increasing buoyancy and then are separated one from another;
- when the floats are all separated from each other completely, by the water level control, water returns back to the water storage tank from the buoyant tank, thus the buoyancy of the floats disappear and the floats sink gradually and get stacked on the bottom of the buoyant tank.
