The invention discloses a mechanical manual overhead lamp control device. A wire winding and unwinding system is an adjusting and control structure of the whole device. An overhaul platform is a work face of the device. A lamp and rail system is an arranging framework structure of the whole device. A through-length platform is arranged on the side close to the wall. The arranging direction of the through-length platform is equal to that of lamps. The lamp and rail system is arranged on a structural beam in the arranging direction of the lamps. The wire winding and unwinding system is connected with the end of a steel wire rope. The lamps to be erected overhead can be made to be in a movable state through the wire winding and unwinding system, the overhaul platform and the lamp and rail system, and the positions of the lamps to be installed or erected can be adjusted at any time. Due to the manual rotating operation of a wire winding device, the steel wire rope is driven, one row of lamps are recycled to one end, the whole device adjusting process is stable, firm and accurate, and the erecting efficiency of the lamp can be effectively improved. According to the mechanical manual overhead lamp control device, overhauling on a fixed and simple operation platform can be achieved, and meanwhile restoring to normal positions can be rapidly achieved after all processes are completed.
