[0018] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0019] To better understand the above technical solutions, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present invention and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0020] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 1 This application provides a drone that can be used for nighttime patrols, which includes a drone body, a warning component, and a circuit board.

[0022] Specifically, the drone's main body may include a battery, propellers, and frame. The drone's main body is also equipped with a camera, which can be a high-definition night vision camera, enabling it to clearly capture images or videos at night. The images or videos captured by the camera can be wirelessly transmitted back to the controller for real-time viewing or storage.

[0023] The warning components include a mounting plate, a strobe light, and a buzzer. The mounting plate can be made of metal, such as aluminum alloy, providing good strength and rigidity. It should be noted that the size of the mounting plate can be designed according to the size of the drone body to ensure compatibility. In one example, the mounting plate can be connected to the drone body via bolts or clips to ensure stability during flight.

[0024] The strobe lights are mounted on a mounting plate to emit strong flashing light to attract attention or provide a warning. The strobe lights can use high-brightness LEDs, featuring low power consumption, long lifespan, and high reliability. The number of strobe lights can be set according to actual needs; for example, four strobe lights can be set, located at the four corners of the mounting plate, to provide an all-around warning effect. In one example, the strobe lights can emit multiple colors and support multiple flashing modes.

[0025] The buzzer is mounted on the mounting plate to emit a sound, which, when used in conjunction with the strobe light, enhances the warning effect. A high-decibel buzzer can be used, possessing excellent sound propagation performance, allowing it to be heard from a considerable distance.

[0026] The circuit board is mounted on a mounting plate and includes a controller and a wireless receiver. The controller coordinates the operation of all components. The controller can utilize a high-performance microprocessor with powerful data processing and control capabilities. The controller is electrically connected to the strobe light and buzzer, allowing control over their on / off states and operating modes.

[0027] The wireless receiver is electrically connected to the controller and is used to receive wireless control signals from the ground control station or operators. The wireless receiver can use advanced communication technologies such as 4G, 5G, or Wi-Fi, and has high sensitivity and high anti-interference capability to ensure stable signal transmission.

[0028] In some embodiments of this application, the warning component further includes a steering drive component. The strobe light is connected to a mounting plate via the steering drive component, which is electrically connected to a controller. Thus, the steering drive component can drive the strobe light to rotate vertically and / or horizontally according to control commands sent by the controller. This arrangement allows the strobe light's illumination direction to be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs. For example, when a specific area needs to be highlighted, the strobe light can be adjusted to the corresponding direction, improving the targeted nature of the warning effect. In one example, the steering drive component can be a stepper motor or a servo motor, thereby achieving high precision, high response speed, and high reliability.

[0029] Furthermore, the warning assembly also includes a laser emitter connected to a strobe light, and the laser emitter and strobe light can move synchronously under the drive of the steering drive assembly. In this way, the laser emitter can emit a high-brightness laser beam, allowing the operator to determine or adjust the direction of the strobe light based on the laser beam's trajectory from the camera's view, further enhancing the warning effect.

[0030] In some embodiments of this application, the number of strobe lights can be multiple, and these multiple strobe lights are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the drone body. This ensures that the drone has a good warning effect in all directions, and the flashing lights can be clearly seen from any angle. At the same time, multiple strobe lights can also achieve different flashing modes and light combinations to improve the diversity and flexibility of the warning effect.

[0031] In some embodiments of this application, an optocoupler is also provided on the circuit board to achieve signal isolation. The optocoupler can effectively isolate signal interference between circuits, improving the stability and reliability of signal transmission. In the circuit system of a drone, the optocoupler can isolate the signals from components such as the controller, strobe light, and buzzer, preventing malfunctions or equipment damage caused by signal interference and ensuring the normal operation of the drone in complex electromagnetic environments.

[0032] In some embodiments of this application, the drone also includes a rechargeable battery, which can be mounted on a mounting plate and electrically connected to the controller. Thus, the rechargeable battery can provide power to various components on the drone. Furthermore, mounting the rechargeable battery on the mounting plate facilitates installation and replacement. Additionally, the design of the rechargeable battery better meets environmental protection and energy-saving requirements, reducing the operating and maintenance costs of the equipment.

[0033] In some embodiments of this application, the warning component further includes an LED strip disposed circumferentially on the drone body and electrically connected to the controller. The LED strip can emit soft light to provide contour illumination for the drone, improving its visibility at night. Simultaneously, the LED strip can be configured with different colors and flashing modes as needed, working in conjunction with components such as strobe lights and buzzers to enhance the drone's warning effect and visual impact.
