Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of mechanical bird-repelling technology, and in particular to a mechanical arm for a bird-repelling vehicle and a bird-repelling method. Background Art

[0002] Currently, bird deterrent technology is widely used in agriculture, airports, and other fields. With the acceleration of agricultural mechanization, the demand for efficient and convenient bird deterrents is growing. Bird deterrents are not only crucial to crop yield and quality, but also to the safe operation of airports.

[0003] The existing technology controls the swing of the mechanical device through a preset program, and the coverage range is fixed, which cannot adapt to changes in the bird's activity path; the mechanical device is installed on a mobile vehicle, and the bird-repelling range is expanded by the movement of the vehicle, but the mechanical device has a single action, the bird-repelling effect is limited, and birds are prone to adapt.

[0004] Therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop a bird-repelling device and method that is efficient, all-round, multi-angle, has a wide coverage range and can improve the bird-repelling effect. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the above-mentioned prior art, the present application provides a bird-repelling vehicle robotic arm and a bird-repelling method. The rotating disk can achieve multi-angle rotation, and the telescopic rod can adjust the height. The two work together to enable the bird-repelling mechanism to accurately locate the position of the bird flock and effectively drive away the bird flock.

[0006] This application is achieved through the following technical solutions: A mechanical arm for a bird-repelling vehicle comprises a horizontal rotating platform fixed on a trolley, a rotating disk on the horizontal rotating platform is provided with a telescopic rod, and a bird-repelling mechanism is provided at the movable end of the telescopic rod; the bird-repelling mechanism can drive away a flock of birds by simulating the hunting action of a predator.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, a horizontal rotating platform is set on the trolley, which can drive the rotating disk to rotate at multiple angles, so that the direction of the telescopic rod can be adjusted. The telescopic rod can rise to the height of the bird flock, allowing the bird-repelling mechanism to better approach the target; the bird-repelling mechanism can simulate the predator's hunting action, which will make the bird flock feel fear. This simulation method fits the natural habits of birds and is more deterrent than ordinary bird-repelling methods. When the bird flock feels the threat of the predator, it will instinctively flee, thereby achieving the purpose of efficiently driving away the bird flock, creating an environment without bird interference for the relevant area, and meeting the bird-repelling needs of specific places.

[0008] Optionally, the bird-repelling mechanism includes a fixed frame and a flexible bird-repelling net arranged in the fixed frame, and the flexible bird-repelling net is provided with a plurality of vibrators, and the vibrators are used to drive the flexible bird-repelling net to vibrate, so as to drive the flexible bird-repelling net to simulate the hunting action and sound of a predator.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, several vibrators installed on the flexible bird-repellent net can drive the flexible bird-repellent net to vibrate, which can effectively simulate the predator's hunting movements and sounds. Compared with the static bird-repellent method, it is more deterrent and makes the birds feel more fearful, thereby effectively driving away the birds and enhancing the bird-repellent effect.

[0010] Optionally, the flexible bird-repelling net is provided with a bionic pattern.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the bionic pattern on the flexible bird repellent net can further enhance the deterrent effect on flocks of birds. Birds are more likely to mistake the bionic patterned flexible bird repellent net for a predator. Combined with the vibration of the flexible bird repellent net driven by a vibrator, the simulated predatory movements and sounds can more effectively drive away the flock, improving the practicality of the bird repellent device.

[0012] Optionally, the flexible bird-repellent net is woven from a flexible rope material.

[0013] By adopting this technical solution, the flexible bird-repellent net is woven from a flexible rope material, making it more flexible and breathable. This flexibility allows the net to better simulate the movements of a predator, producing predator-like behavior when shaken, enhancing its deterrent effect on flocks of birds. Its breathability reduces wind resistance, preventing damage to the net caused by excessive wind. Furthermore, the flexible rope material is relatively low-cost and easy to manufacture and replace, reducing the overall operating cost of the bird-repellent robot arm and improving its practicality and economic efficiency.

[0014] Optionally, the trolley is provided with a solar power supply device, which includes a solar panel and a charging controller. The solar panel is used to convert light energy into electrical energy and transmit it to the charging controller, and the solar panel is electrically connected to the charging controller.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, a solar power supply device is installed on the vehicle, using solar panels to convert light energy into electrical energy and transmit it to the charge controller. This design effectively utilizes solar energy, a clean energy source, reducing dependence on traditional energy sources and lowering operating costs. Moreover, solar energy resources are abundant and renewable, ensuring a continuous and stable power supply for the bird-scaring vehicle during long-term outdoor operations, improving the vehicle's endurance and operating efficiency, while also complying with the concept of environmental protection and energy conservation.

[0016] Optionally, the bird-repelling mechanism further includes a plurality of flash lights for repelling birds, and the plurality of flash lights are distributed on the flexible bird-repelling net.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, a number of flashing lights are distributed throughout the flexible bird-repelling net. The strong light emitted by the flashing lights effectively attracts and stimulates birds. Combined with the flexible bird-repelling net's simulated predator movements and sounds, this increases the deterrent effect on birds in multiple dimensions, greatly improving the bird-repelling effect.

[0018] Optionally, the bird-repelling mechanism includes a retracting and expanding mechanism fixed on both sides of the movable end of the telescopic rod and arranged symmetrically, and a flexible bird-repelling net is provided on the retracting and expanding mechanism, wherein the retracting and expanding mechanism includes a large bone, a small bone and a first drive motor; a pin is fixed to the movable end of the telescopic rod, and the upper ends of the large bone and multiple small bones are hinged on the pin in sequence, and the large bone and multiple small bones are arranged in a fan shape with the pin as the center and are connected to the unfolded flexible bird-repelling net; the output shaft of the first drive motor is coaxially arranged with the pin, and a turntable is provided on the output shaft of the first drive motor; the large bone is fixed on the turntable, and during the rotation of the turntable, the large bone can drive the flexible bird-repelling net to drive the small bones to unfold in a fan shape in sequence to simulate the predator's hunting action and sound.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the bird-repelling mechanism is set on both sides of the movable end of the telescopic rod and is arranged symmetrically. The height and position can be adjusted in conjunction with the telescopic rod to make the bird-repelling range wider; the setting of the large bone, small bone and the first drive motor in the retraction and expansion mechanism, and the large bone and multiple small bones are connected to the flexible bird-repelling net through the pin shaft, so that when the first drive motor drives the turntable to rotate, the large bone can drive the flexible bird-repelling net to drive the small bones to expand in a fan shape in sequence, thereby achieving a more vivid simulation of the predator's hunting movements and sounds, and effectively improving the bird-repelling effect.

[0020] Optionally, the flexible bird-repellent net is made of waterproof cloth with mesh holes.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating disk can drive the telescopic rod to rotate so that the bird-repellent mechanism can adjust the horizontal position. The movable end of the telescopic rod can drive the bird-repellent mechanism to adjust the height. The flexible bird-repellent net can be unfolded in conjunction with the retraction and expansion mechanism to simulate the predator's hunting action to drive away the flock of birds. At the same time, a waterproof cloth with mesh is used to make the flexible bird-repellent net. It has a waterproof function and the mesh can allow wind to pass through, reducing the impact of wind resistance, so that the bird-repellent net can stably simulate the predation action.

[0022] Optionally, the horizontal rotating disk includes a second drive motor and a rotating disk, the rotating disk is powered by the second drive motor to rotate, a trigger block is provided on the edge of the rotating disk, a brake is provided at the bottom of the rotating disk, a frame is provided on the periphery of the horizontal rotating platform, and a limiter is provided on the frame corresponding to the movement trajectory of the trigger block; the limiter is electrically connected to the second drive motor through the emergency stop relay of the equipment, and when the trigger block contacts the limiter, the second drive motor immediately cuts off the power supply and triggers the brake to lock the rotating disk to limit the rotation angle range.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating disk rotates during use of the bird-repelling vehicle. When the trigger block on the edge of the rotating disk contacts the limiter on the frame corresponding to its motion trajectory, the limiter immediately cuts off the power to the second drive motor through the device's emergency stop relay, simultaneously triggering the brake at the bottom of the rotating disk to lock the rotating disk. This effectively limits the rotating disk's rotation angle range, preventing excessive rotation and preventing damage to the bird-repelling mechanism or loss of bird-repelling effectiveness due to loss of control over the rotation angle. This improves the overall stability and reliability of the bird-repelling vehicle and ensures the smooth operation of the bird-repelling operation.

[0024] A bird-repelling method, using any of the above-mentioned bird-repelling vehicle-mounted robotic arms, specifically comprises the following steps: Step 1: Start the control system of the equipment and start preparation; Step 2: The car goes to the location of the bird flock; Step 3: After reaching the location of the flock of birds, the rotating disk is rotated at multiple angles, the telescopic rod is raised to the height of the flock, and then the bird-repelling mechanism simulates the predator's hunting action to drive the birds away; Step 4: After the flock of birds is driven away, the telescopic rod is retracted and the bird-repelling mechanism is closed; Step 5: After the car has driven away the birds, it will go to the set location and be placed there.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution and using a bird-repelling robotic arm to carry out bird-repelling work, you can first make preparations, then move the trolley to the bird flock, and move the bird-repelling mechanism to the appropriate position through the multi-angle rotation of the rotating disk and the raising of the telescopic rod. The bird-repelling mechanism simulates the predator's hunting action to drive away the bird flock. After the bird-repelling is completed, the telescopic rod retracts, the bird-repelling mechanism is closed, and the trolley returns to the set position, which can effectively drive away the bird flock.

[0026] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. This application uses a rotating disk that rotates at multiple angles and a telescopic rod that can rise to the height of a flock of birds, so that the bird-repelling mechanism can better approach the flock of birds and drive them away.

[0027] 2. This application uses a bird-repelling mechanism to simulate the predator's hunting movements to drive away birds, avoiding the problem of traditional bird-repelling methods that easily cause birds to adapt and lead to a decrease in bird-repelling effectiveness. It can more effectively drive away birds, ensuring agricultural production, stable power supply facilities, and airport flight safety; 3. This application sets a trigger block on the rotating disk and a limiter on the frame. When the trigger block contacts the limiter, the second drive motor immediately cuts off the power supply and triggers the brake to lock the rotating disk, which can limit the rotation angle range and improve the safety and stability of the equipment operation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0031] Example 1 Reference Figure 1 The embodiment of the present application discloses a bird-repelling vehicle robotic arm, comprising a horizontal rotating platform 2 fixed on a trolley 1, a rotating disk 22 on the horizontal rotating platform 2 is provided with a telescopic rod 3, and a movable end 31 of the telescopic rod 3 is provided with a bird-repelling mechanism 4; the bird-repelling mechanism 4 can drive away a flock of birds by simulating the hunting action of a predator.

[0032] Specifically, the bird-repelling mechanism 4 includes a fixed frame 43 and a flexible bird-repelling net 41 disposed within the fixed frame 43. The flexible bird-repelling net 41 is provided with a plurality of vibrators 411, which are used to vibrate the flexible bird-repelling net 41, thereby causing the flexible bird-repelling net 41 to simulate the movements and sounds of a predator. The fixed frame 43 is generally made of a metal material, such as an aluminum alloy, which is lightweight and strong. Stainless steel can also be used instead for better corrosion resistance. The flexible bird-repelling net 41 plays a key role in repelling birds. The vibrators 411 can be small electromagnetic vibrators 411 that generate high-frequency vibrations during operation, or they can be replaced with eccentric motor-type vibrators 411. Both types of vibrators 411 can vibrate the flexible bird-repelling net 41. The vibrator 411 is fixed to the flexible bird-repelling net 41 by bolts or welding. After power is turned on, the vibrator 411 drives the flexible bird-repelling net 41 to vibrate, simulating the hunting movements and sounds of a predator, making the flock of birds think that a real predator is attacking and thus being driven away.

[0033] The flexible bird-repelling net 41 is provided with a bionic pattern 412. The bionic pattern 412 can imitate the appearance of a natural enemy of birds, such as an eagle. These patterns are printed on the flexible bird-repelling net 41 using high-definition printing technology. The printing resolution is high, the colors are bright, and the images are lifelike, which enhances the deterrent effect on birds.

[0034] The flexible bird-repelling net 41 is woven from a flexible rope material. This material is usually nylon, which has the advantages of good flexibility and durability, and can also be replaced by a flexible rope of polyester fiber material.

[0035] The vehicle 1 is equipped with a solar power supply device 5, which includes a solar panel 51 and a charge controller 52. The solar panel 51 is used to convert light energy into electrical energy and transmit it to the charge controller 52. The solar panel 51 is electrically connected to the charge controller 52. The solar panel 51 can be a monocrystalline silicon solar panel 51, which has high photoelectric conversion efficiency. Its surface has an anti-reflective coating that reduces light reflection and improves light energy absorption efficiency. The solar panel 51 is mounted on the top of the vehicle 1, facing a sunny direction, and is used to convert light energy into electrical energy and transmit it to the charge controller 52. The charge controller 52 manages and distributes electrical energy. It uses an advanced intelligent chip with powerful data processing and control capabilities. The intelligent chip can automatically adjust charging parameters based on the battery status and load requirements, providing power support for the entire bird repellent device.

[0036] The operating principle of this embodiment is as follows: By rationally combining various components, this bird-repelling robotic arm utilizes the mobility of the trolley 1, the multi-angle rotation of the rotating disk 22, the height adjustment of the telescopic rod 3, and the bird-repelling mechanism 4 to simulate the hunting movements of a predator, achieving efficient and flexible bird-repelling capabilities. Compared to traditional bird-repelling methods, this embodiment is less likely to cause birds to adapt, has a more lasting effect, and does not cause environmental pollution. It can effectively meet the bird-repelling needs of specific locations such as airports and farmland, and is a significant improvement and enhancement to existing bird-repelling technologies.

[0037] Example 2 Reference Figure 2~Figure 3 This embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the bird-repelling mechanism 4 further includes a plurality of flashing lights 42 for repelling birds, and the flashing lights 42 are distributed on the flexible bird-repelling net 41. The flashing lights 42 can emit bright flashing light to further scare birds. These flashing lights 42 use LED lamp beads, which have the characteristics of high brightness and low energy consumption. The flashing lights 42 can also be powered by the solar power supply device 5.

[0038] Reference Figures 4 to 6The bird-repelling mechanism 4 includes a symmetrical arrangement of retracting and extending mechanisms 32 fixed on both sides of the movable end 31 of the telescopic rod 3, and a flexible bird-repelling net 41 is provided on the retracting and extending mechanism 32, wherein the retracting and extending mechanism 32 includes a large bone 321, a small bone 322 and a first drive motor 323; the movable end 31 of the telescopic rod 3 is fixed with a pin 311, and the upper ends of the large bone 321 and the plurality of small bones 322 are hinged on the pin 311 in sequence, and the large bone 321 and the plurality of small bones 322 are hinged on the pin 311. 1 is connected to the unfolded flexible bird-repellent net 41 in a fan-shaped arrangement with the center of the circle. The output shaft of the first drive motor 323 is coaxially arranged with the pin 311, and a turntable 3231 is mounted on the output shaft of the first drive motor 323. The large bones 321 are fixed to the turntable 3231. As the turntable 3231 rotates, the large bones 321 drive the flexible bird-repellent net 41 and the small bones 322 to unfold in a fan-shaped pattern, simulating the movements and sounds of a predator. The movable end 31 of the telescopic rod 3 is fixed with the pin 311. The pin 311 is made of stainless steel, which has excellent corrosion resistance and a polished surface with low surface roughness, reducing friction during rotation. Both the large bones 321 and the small bones 322 are made of lightweight alloy materials. Lightweight alloys have the advantages of low density and high specific strength, ensuring sufficient strength while reducing weight. The large bone 321 is fixed on the turntable 3231. When the first driving motor 323 drives the turntable 3231 to rotate, the large bone 321 can drive the flexible bird-repelling net 41 to drive the small bones 322 to unfold in a fan shape in sequence during the rotation of the turntable 3231.

[0039] Reference Figure 7 The flexible bird-repellent net 41 is made of a meshed waterproof cloth 413. The flexible bird-repellent net 41 is made of a meshed waterproof cloth 413, which can be made of polyester fiber and is waterproof and wear-resistant. The waterproof cloth 413 makes a certain sound when it is opened and closed, which can simulate the sound of a predator to repel birds.

[0040] The operating principle of this embodiment is as follows: the addition of a flashlight 42 enhances the bird-repelling effect of the bird-repelling robot arm at night or in low light. The retraction and expansion mechanism 32 enables the flexible bird-repelling net 41 to quickly expand and contract, expanding the bird-repelling range. The flexible bird-repelling net 41, made of meshed waterproof cloth 413, not only creates a large bird-repelling area when deployed but is also waterproof and weatherproof, further enhancing the effectiveness and reliability of bird-repelling devices and overcoming the shortcomings of traditional bird-repelling methods.

[0041] Example 3 Reference Figures 8 and 9The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the horizontal rotating disk 22 includes a second driving motor 21 and a rotating disk 22. The rotating disk 22 is powered by the second driving motor 21 to rotate. A trigger block 221 is provided on the edge of the rotating disk 22, and a brake 222 is provided at the bottom of the rotating disk 22. A frame 11 is provided on the outer periphery of the horizontal rotating platform 2, and a limiter 111 corresponding to the motion trajectory of the trigger block 221 is provided on the frame 11; the limiter 111 is electrically connected to the second driving motor 21 through the emergency stop relay of the equipment, and when the trigger block 221 contacts the limiter 111, the second driving motor 21 immediately cuts off the power supply and triggers the brake 222 to lock the rotating disk 22 to limit the rotation angle range. The trigger block 221 can be a metal block, such as an iron block, or can be replaced by a plastic block with a metal layer. The brake 222 can be an electromagnetic brake 222 with a fast response speed, or can be replaced by a hydraulic brake 222. The frame 11 is generally made of welded steel, but can also be assembled from aluminum alloy profiles. The limiter 111 can be a proximity switch with high detection accuracy, or can be replaced by a travel switch. The limiter 111 is electrically connected to the second drive motor 21 through the equipment's emergency stop relay. When the trigger block 221 contacts the limiter 111, the second drive motor 21 immediately cuts off power and triggers the brake 222 to lock the rotating disk 22, limiting the rotation angle range and preventing the rotating disk 22 from over-rotating, thereby ensuring the safe operation of the equipment.

[0042] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: by setting the trigger block 221, the limiter 111 and the brake 222, when the rotating disk 22 rotates to a certain angle and triggers the limiter 111, the power supply of the second drive motor 21 can be cut off in time and the rotating disk 22 can be locked, thereby avoiding damage to the equipment caused by excessive rotation, improving the safety and stability of the rotating disk 22, and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0043] Example 4 The present application also discloses a bird-repelling method, which uses the bird-repelling robotic arm in the first embodiment and specifically includes the following steps: Step 1: Start the equipment's control system and begin preparatory work. Before starting the control system, conduct a comprehensive and detailed inspection of all equipment components. For trolley 1, check its sufficient battery life and secure electrical connections, as well as tire pressure and wear. For telescopic rod 3, test its telescopic function and check the hydraulic system's oil pressure or the operating status of the electric push rod. For bird-repelling mechanism 4, ensure the vibrator 411 and flashlight 42 are functioning properly, and inspect the flexible bird-repelling net 41 for damage. After completing preparatory work, ensure the equipment is operational.

[0044] In step 2, vehicle 1 travels to the flock's location. Following a pre-set route or under operator remote control, vehicle 1 drives toward the flock's location. During driving, vehicle 1's control system monitors its driving status and surroundings in real time. Sensors within the control system continuously collect data on the vehicle's speed, direction, and attitude, while also using cameras and radar to detect surrounding obstacles and road conditions to ensure safe and accurate driving.

[0045] Step 3, after arriving at the flock of birds position, multi-angle rotation is carried out by rotating disk 22, telescopic rod 3 rises to the height of the flock of birds, and then the flock of birds is driven away by bird-repelling mechanism 4 simulating the predator's predation action. The second drive motor 21 is started, and the second drive motor 21 drives the rotating disk 22 to rotate with a stable speed, so that the bird-repelling mechanism 4 can cover a larger range. The telescopic rod 3 rises by a hydraulic system or an electric push rod, and according to the actual height of the flock of birds, the extension length of the telescopic rod 3 is accurately adjusted, and the bird-repelling mechanism 4 is delivered to the height of the flock of birds. The vibrator 411 of the bird-repelling mechanism 4 starts to work, and the vibrator 411 drives the flexible bird-repelling net 41 to shake according to the frequency and amplitude of setting, and combines the bionic pattern 412 on the flexible bird-repelling net 41 to simulate the predation action of the predator, and the flock of birds is driven away. In addition, a flashlight 42 can also be added on the flexible bird-repelling net 41, and it flashes according to a certain rule, which can further improve the bird-repelling effect.

[0046] Step 4: After the birds are driven away, telescopic rod 3 retracts, and bird-repelling mechanism 4 shuts down. Once the birds are observed to have been driven away to a safe distance, telescopic rod 3 begins to retract, and the hydraulic system slowly releases pressure or the electric push rod reverses, allowing telescopic rod 3 to smoothly return to its initial position. The vibrator 411 and flashing light 42 of bird-repelling mechanism 4 are then turned off, halting the simulated predation action.

[0047] Step 5: Car 1 completes its bird-scaring mission and returns to its designated location. Following a pre-set route or under operator control, Car 1 returns to its designated location. During this return, the control system's precise navigation and monitoring ensures the vehicle reaches its destination safely and accurately.

[0048] The principle behind this embodiment is that this bird-repelling method leverages the various functions of the bird-repelling robotic arm and, through a rationally arranged process, achieves an automated and efficient bird-repelling process. From the equipment's startup preparations, to the movement of the trolley 1 to the location of the bird flock, to the operation of the bird-repelling mechanism 4 and subsequent finishing work, each step is closely coordinated, improving the efficiency and accuracy of bird-repelling. Compared to traditional bird-repelling methods, this method can effectively and instantly repel flocks, reducing labor costs and environmental impact, and providing strong support for the normal operation of various industries.

[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit them. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some or all of the technical features therein.
