A deep-sea anchoring device for gravity and anchor composite with a decelerating wing includes an anchoring base, a decelerating wing and an anchor body. The anchoring base provides an anchoring force by its own gravity, heavy pressure and friction with a sea floor. The decelerating wing includes a main decelerating wing, and a secondary decelerating wing that increases the cross-sectional area for diversion, so that a resistance is produced by water flowing through the main and secondary decelerating wings to reduce the falling speed of the anchoring base to a safe range, and prevent the anchoring base from being damaged by its collision with the sea floor. The anchor body is pivoted to the bottom of the anchoring base and anchored by being shoveled into a sea floor mainly consisting of gravels or deposited soil or abutted against rough rocks of a sea floor mainly consisting of rocks.
An anchoring device having a decelerating wing, comprising:
