The LEDs 331 on each flexible LED array 33 are connected in parallel through wires 332.

[0047] The light pole 1 includes a main load-bearing pipe 11. Multiple longitudinally arranged decorative strips 12 are provided on the outer side of the middle section of the main load-bearing pipe 11, with each decorative strip 12 arranged circumferentially around the main load-bearing pipe 11. At least two vertically arranged reinforcing rings 13 are fitted onto the outer side of the main load-bearing pipe 11. The inner edge of each reinforcing ring 13 has 60 slots 131 arranged around its center. The outer side of each decorative strip 12 engages with the slots 131 of the reinforcing ring 13. There are 60 decorative strips 12, each made of rectangular tubing with a cross-sectional dimension of 10mm width * 40mm length * 1.0mm wall thickness. The main load-bearing pipe 11 has a wall thickness of 8mm and an inner diameter of 203mm.

[0048] Each petal-shaped umbrella rib 2 includes two circular tubes 21. The outward-facing end of each circular tube 21 is connected to a circular-to-square reducing tube 26, and the inward-facing end (circular end) of the reducing tube 26 is connected to the outward-facing end of the circular tube 21. An outer arc-shaped rectangular tube 23 connects the outward-facing ends of the two circular-to-square reducing tubes 26. Several first radial rectangular tubes 22 are provided between the two circular tubes 21, and the outer ends of the first radial rectangular tubes 22 are connected to the outer arc-shaped rectangular tubes 23. The inner ends of both the circular tubes 21 and the first radial rectangular tubes 22 are movably connected to the upper sidewall of the main load-bearing tube 11, specifically by welding or bolting. The inner ends of both the circular tubes 21 and the first radial rectangular tubes 22 are located above the decorative strip 12 and adjacent to the upper end of the decorative strip 12, visually achieving a unified appearance.

The round-to-square reducing pipe 26 changes from a square opening of 10mm*40mm to a diameter of 51mm and a wall thickness of 1.5mm. The outer arc-shaped rectangular pipe 23 and the inner arc-shaped rectangular pipe 24 both have a cross-section of 20mm*40mm*1.2mm. The first radial rectangular pipe 22 and the second radial rectangular pipe 25 both have a cross-section of 10mm*40mm*1.0mm. The petal-shaped umbrella rib 2 is made entirely of stainless steel, and adjacent pipes are welded together.

[0051] The lower part of the main load-bearing pipe 11 is connected to an upper plate 18 and a flange plate 15 arranged above and below, respectively. The flange plate 15 is located at the lower end of the main load-bearing pipe 11. The lower ends of each decorative strip 12 are in contact with the upper end face of the upper plate 18. Reinforcing ribs 16 are connected between the lower end face of the upper plate 18 and the side wall of the main load-bearing pipe 11, and between the upper end face of the flange plate 15 and the side wall of the main load-bearing pipe 11.

The controller includes a sub-controller 8, and different flexible LED arrays 33 on the same umbrella-shaped pergola can be controlled by the same sub-controller 8. The different flexible LED arrays 33 on each petal-shaped umbrella rib 2 can jointly realize the transformation between the daytime landscape shape and the nighttime dynamic display. The photovoltaic panel 5 generates direct current when exposed to sunlight. It is composed of thin solid photovoltaic cells made almost entirely of semiconductor materials (such as silicon). The electricity generated by the photovoltaic panel 5 due to sunlight is supplied to the flexible LED array 33.

[0053] In addition, a slot 17 is provided on the side wall near the bottom of the main load-bearing pipe 11.
