By the arrangement of the above structure, during use, the shell 10 is connected to the floating shell 200. When the two shells are placed in the water, the shell 10 floats on the water surface under the action of the buoyancy of the floating shell 200. Moreover, a user can freely replace the floating shell 200, so that the product has different appearances and is more diverse and aesthetically pleasing. The temperature sensing device 30 is threaded out along the bottom of the shell 10 and is immersed into liquid, which can effectively measure the water temperature and generate the electrical signal.
