Please refer to FIG. 2, FIG. 12 and FIG. 13. FIG. 12 is a diagram of the holding device 1000 with the hook module 40 in a locked status according to the embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 13 is a diagram of the holding device 1000 with the hook module 40 in an unlocked status according to the embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, since the remote controller 3000 is able to communicate with the unmanned aerial vehicle 2000 by the  wireless connection between the remote wireless communication module 3001 and the vehicle wireless communication module 2003 and the vehicle controlling unit 2001 is able to communicate with the device controlling unit 6 via the device connecting unit 7, the remote controller 3000 is able to control the servo motor 402 to rotate the motor shaft 4020 in a first rotating direction R1 or in a second rotating direction R2 opposite to the first rotating direction R1.
It should be noticed that the holding device 1000 further includes a motor connecting unit C. The motor connecting unit C is coupled to the device controlling unit 6. The motor connecting unit C and the device power supply connecting unit A are electrically connected to a motor module (e.g., a brushless motor module and so on) , so that the remote controller 3000 is able to control the motor module.
As shown in FIG. 9 to FIG. 13, the lock mechanism 403 includes a hook structure 4030, a rolling arm 4033, a locking member 4034 and a linking member 4035. The hook structure 4030 is combined with the motor holding base 401. The rolling arm 4033 is coupled with the servo motor 402. The locking member 4034 is slidably disposed on the hook structure 4030. The linking member 4035 has a first end 4036 and a second end 4037. The first end 4036 is pivoted to the rolling arm 4033, and the second end 4037 is pivoted to the locking member 4034. Furthermore, the hook structure 4030 has a hook breach 4031 and a hook opening 4032 communicating with the hook breach 4031.
When the user uses the remote controller 3000 to control the servo motor 402 to rotate the motor shaft 4020 in the first rotating direction R1, the rolling arm 4033 is activated to rotate along the first rotating direction R1. Thus, the  rolling arm 4033 drives the linking member 4035 to activate the locking member 4034 to slide along a first direction X1, until the locking member 4034 to achieve a locked position shown in FIG. 13. In the meanwhile, the locking member 4034 blocks the hook opening 4032, so that a rope that is used for hanging an object can be hooked within the hook breach 4031.
On the other hand, when the holding device 1000 is carried by the unmanned aerial vehicle 2000 to the target place, the user uses the remote controller 3000 to control the servo motor 402 to rotate the motor shaft 4020 in the second rotating direction R2, the rolling arm 4033 is activated to rotate along the second rotating direction R2. Thus, the rolling arm 4033 drives the linking member 4035 to activate the locking member 4034 to slide along a second direction X1 opposite to the first direction X1, until the locking member 4034 to achieve an unlocked position shown in FIG. 12. In the meanwhile, the locking member 4034 unblocks the hook opening 4032, so that the rope that is used for hanging the object can be released from the hook breach 4031 and thrown to the target place to finish the task.
Please refer to FIG. 14. FIG. 14 is a diagram of the holding device 1000 with the hook module 40 and the camera module 5 according to the embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 14, the holding device 1000 with the hook module 40 is further equipped with the camera module 5. Thus, when the hook module 40 throws object, the camera module 5 captures images of the target and vehicle wireless communication module 2003 of the unmanned aerial vehicle 2000 transmits the images to remote controller 3000, so that the user can determine the following tasks according to the images.
