[0002] With the increasing prevalence of drone applications, their usage scenarios are constantly expanding. In many operational and shooting scenarios, there is a strong demand for drone lighting equipment. Traditional drones often lack dedicated and compatible lighting control devices. Ordinary auxiliary lighting installation methods are not only cumbersome and complex, making it difficult to quickly and stably fix them to the drone, but also the fixed position of the lights after installation makes it impossible to flexibly adjust the lighting angle, which seriously limits the lighting effect in different environments. At the same time, if the heat generated by the lights during operation cannot be dissipated in time, it will lead to a significant reduction in the lifespan of the lights and related control components. Frequent equipment replacement increases costs and affects operational efficiency. In addition, the wiring connections between the lights and the drone are messy and disorganized. During flight, the wires are easily tangled and loosened, causing circuit failures, lighting interruptions, and even affecting the normal flight safety of the drone. Based on this, it is urgent to develop a drone gimbal light control device that is stably installed, allows for flexible control of the lighting angle, has efficient heat dissipation, and has neat wiring.

[0038] The bow-shaped hook 200 is snapped onto the outer walls of the front and rear sides of the bottom of the gimbal, and the gimbal is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the bottom of the drone.
[0039] The lamp holder mounting bracket 300 is installed on the inner wall of the bow-shaped hook 200, and both ends of the lamp holder mounting bracket 300 are provided with lamp holder mounting compartments 310.
[0040] The specific application scenario of this embodiment is as follows: The controller bracket 100 is fixedly installed on the top outer wall of the drone (not shown in the figure).

The bow-shaped hook 200 is engaged with the front and rear outer walls of the bottom of the gimbal. The gimbal is fixed to the bottom outer wall of the drone. The bow-shaped hook 200 serves to connect the gimbal and the light head mounting bracket 300. The light head mounting bracket 300 is installed on the inner wall of the bow-shaped hook 200. The light head mounting compartments 310 at both ends are used to install the light head (not shown in the figure). In this way, the light head can adjust its angle with the rotation of the gimbal to achieve illumination in different directions. This embodiment shows the overall layout of the light control device and the connection relationship of the main components, providing a basic structural framework for subsequent manufacturing and assembly. A megaphone is fixedly installed on the top of the light head mounting bracket 300. Based on the mobile 5G network, it can realize two-way communication and amplification applications for search and rescue calls, and can receive voices through the mobile network.
[0041] Example 2: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The bottom outer wall of the controller bracket 100 is provided with locking blocks 110 on all four sides. The locking blocks 110 are engaged with the top outer wall of the drone. The top outer wall of the controller bracket 100 is fixedly installed with limiting seats 120. There are two sets of limiting seats 120 symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides. The limiting seats 120 have a hollow structure. The gap between the two sets of limiting seats 120 is a rectangular structure. The inner wall of the limiting seats 120 has a through hole 121. The light controller is engaged with the two limiting seats 120 to install the light controller. The through hole 121 is used for ventilation and heat dissipation around the light controller. The wiring terminals on the outer wall of the light controller are electrically connected to the lamp head through wires.
[0042] The specific application scenario of this embodiment is as follows: The locking blocks 110 around the bottom of the controller bracket 100 engage with the outer wall of the top of the drone, which can quickly and accurately fix the controller bracket 100 on the drone and ensure a stable connection. The limiting seat 120 is fixed on the top of the controller bracket 100. The rectangular gap between the two sets of symmetrical limiting seats 120 is used to install the lamp controller. The limiting seat 120 has a hollow structure and through holes 121 on its inner wall, which allows air to circulate around the lamp controller, playing a role in ventilation and heat dissipation, and preventing the lamp controller from being damaged by overheating due to long-term operation. The wiring terminals on the outer wall of the lamp controller are electrically connected to the lamp head through wires, thereby realizing the control of parameters such as lamp head switching and brightness.
[0043] Example 3: Figures 3-6The outer walls of the two ends of the bow-shaped hook 200 are respectively provided with a first hook 210 and a second hook 220. The bottom inner wall of the bow-shaped hook 200 is provided with a first slot 230. The lamp head mounting bracket 300 is set in a bow shape. The bow-shaped hook 200 and the lamp head mounting bracket 300 are distributed perpendicularly to each other.

The lamp head mounting compartment 310 is set in a cylindrical shape. The lamp head mounting compartments 310 are symmetrically distributed on the left and right. The inner wall of the lamp head mounting compartment 310 is a hollow structure. The rear inner wall of the lamp head mounting compartment 310 is evenly provided with heat dissipation holes 311. The outer wall of the drone's propeller arm is attached to the wiring clip 400. The outer wall of the wiring clip 400 is evenly provided with several clip sleeves 410. The openings of adjacent clip sleeves 410 are set in opposite directions.
[0044] The specific application scenario of this embodiment is as follows: The first hook 210 and the second hook 220 at both ends of the bow-shaped hook 200 are used to firmly engage with the bottom of the pan-tilt unit, ensuring a stable connection between the two. The first slot 230 on the inner wall of the bottom of the bow-shaped hook 200 and the second slot 320 on the top of the lamp holder mounting bracket 300 engage vertically, allowing the lamp holder mounting bracket 300 to be accurately installed on the bow-shaped hook 200 and ensuring that the two are vertically distributed. The lamp holder mounting compartment 310 is cylindrical and symmetrically distributed on both sides, with a hollow structure on the inner wall. The rear inner wall has evenly spaced heat dissipation holes 311, which is beneficial for heat dissipation of the lamp holder. To extend its service life, the wiring clips 400 on the outer wall of the drone propeller arm are used to organize and fix the wires connecting the lamp controller and the lamp head. The sleeves 410 on the outer wall of the wiring clips 400 can hold the wires. The openings of adjacent sleeves 410 are set in opposite directions to prevent the wires from getting tangled or loose during drone flight, thus ensuring circuit stability. This embodiment fully demonstrates the connection structure between the bow-shaped hook 200 and the lamp head mounting bracket 300, the heat dissipation design of the lamp head mounting compartment 310, and the way the wiring clips 400 fix the wires, providing detailed technical basis for manufacturing, assembly, and maintenance.
