The upper cone, the transition section, the lower cone and the bottom frame are coincident with a centerline, and a through center well is designed around the centerline from top to bottom. The diameter at the bottom frame is smaller than that of the main body of the center well. The upper cone, the transition section and the lower cone are internally connected and divided into plural compartments. Through ballast compartments are designed outside the sidewall of the upper cone, the transition section and the lower cone vertically connected with a consistent cross-sectional area from top to bottom. Plural ballast compartments and void compartments are arranged within the bottom frame.
