[0002] With the development of the drone industry, drones are widely used in aerial photography, power line inspection, firefighting and other fields. As the number of drones increases, there are more and more cases where drones lose control due to signal loss during flight. After a crash, the drone circuit and communication link are likely to be disconnected, and the ground station cannot get the exact location of the drone. It is also difficult to find the drone based on its location before it lost control, especially in the field. It is like looking for a needle in a haystack. A lot of manpower and material resources are consumed in the search process, and once it cannot be found, it may be a loss of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands or millions for individuals or companies. Therefore, most drones are equipped with target locators to facilitate the search of drones.

When installing the locator body 2, the user can install the second support plate 62 on the drone through the connecting block 64, the first screw hole 65, and the second screw hole 9, so as to achieve the purpose of positioning the drone. Because the second support plate 62 can slide in the first support plate 61 through the second slide groove 63, it is convenient to adjust the position of the second support plate 62. The length of the connecting block 64 can be extended by pulling the second support plate 62 forward, and the length of the connecting block 64 can be shortened by pushing the second support plate 62 back, so as to achieve the purpose of conveniently fixing the device on drones of different widths. Due to the existence of the protective plate 51, the locator body 2 can be protected inside the protective shell 1 to prevent the locator body 2 from being damaged. At the same time, due to the opening of the rectangular opening 52, the user can also view the locator body 2 inside the protective shell 1 through the protective glass 53 without opening the protective plate 51, so as to observe the locator body 2 at all times. , because the protective plate 51 is clamped on the top of the protective shell 1, when the protective plate 51 needs to be removed, grab the T-block 54 and pull the clamping block 55 out of the clamping slot 4, so as to achieve the purpose of convenient removal of the protective plate 51. Its limit frame 7 and limit block 8 can limit the position of the locator body 2 and enhance the stability of the locator body 2 to avoid the locator body 2 from falling. Because the limit frame 7 is threadedly fixed on the inner wall of the protective shell 1, when the limit frame 7 needs to be removed, the second bolt 10 can be screwed out of the second screw hole 9, so as to achieve the purpose of convenient removal of the limit frame 7. Due to the opening of the first slide groove 3, it is convenient for the limit frame 7 to slide up and down. While conveniently adjusting the position of the limit frame 7, it is also convenient to pull out and remove the limit frame 7. Due to the opening of the vent 11, it is convenient for the internal ventilation of the protective shell 1. At the same time, the aluminum block 12 is an aluminum product with good heat dissipation capacity, so that the heat dissipation of the locator body 2 can be effectively treated, thereby extending the service life of the locator body 2.
