PURPOSE: To obtain a connecting structure freely followable with respect to the rolling and pitching of the floating bodies and forming the ends of the floating bodies such as a barge into an arcuate shape, butting these arcuate surfaces each other and connecting two floating bodies by a rope hanging over these surfaces in the form of a cord for holding up one's sleeves.
CONSTITUTION: The ends of barges 1A are formed into a planar and arcuate guide members 3 are provided along the arcuate configurations. The guide member 3 is of a hook shape in cross section and provided with a groove guiding the wire rope. In connecting adjacent barge 1A to each other, the wire rope 7 is hung over these barges through the guide rollers 6 in a manner of a cord for tucked sleeves, and one end of the wire rope is stopped at a bit 5, and another end may be locked to a stopper 8 through a spring member 9. By this connection, the rolling and pitching of the barges in waves can be smoothly absorbed. Moreover, reference numeral 4 designates a bracket of the guide member 3.
