Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an animal repeller. Background Art

[0002] Animal repellers are widely used in farms, orchards, wind power plants, military and civilian airports, etc. to prevent harmful birds or rodents from invading their territory, thereby avoiding endangering their labor results or equipment safety.

[0003] The animal repellers currently on the market include, for example, the utility model patent for a rotary bird repeller with the patent number ZLCN201920500514.1. The utility model solves the problem of power lines being twisted and broken by the rotation of the head for a long time by making the mounting chassis rotate synchronously with the owl head cover. However, the patented technical solution still has many limitations, for example: first, the motor body and the circuit part are arranged as a whole on a rotatable chassis, which has high power requirements for the motor, high energy consumption, and great limitations on the continuous working time of the animal repeller; secondly, the connection method between the hood and the mounting plate of the product adopts a bonding connection method (not disclosed in the literature, but can be known from the disassembly of products circulating on the market), and the assembly operation is very cumbersome. Once the product is assembled, it is not convenient to disassemble due to the small gap between the owl's hood and the main body, and therefore not convenient for subsequent maintenance and repair; in addition, due to the defect mentioned in the second point above, since lithium batteries are used in the product, safety inspections are required before air transportation, so lithium batteries are not allowed to be contained in the product. It can only be shipped in bulk and transported to the sales area before the lithium batteries are assembled with the remaining parts, resulting in additional labor costs. If the assembled products are directly transported, water transportation can only be used, and the transportation cycle is long and the cost is high. Summary of the invention

[0010] A further design of the animal repeller is that the two U-shaped slots are arranged at the same radial position of the positioning mounting rod.

[0011] A further design of the animal repeller is that the positioning mounting rod is a hollow tube, the wire is encapsulated in the hollow tube, a conductive ring is provided in the axial position of the hollow tube relative to the mounting plate, the conductive ring is electrically connected to one end of the wire, and the other end of the wire is electrically connected to a first conductive contact arranged in the positioning transmission hole.

[0012] A further design of the animal repeller is that a second conductive contact is provided at the front end of the pin, the second conductive contact is electrically connected to the solar panel, and when the pin is inserted into the hollow tube, the electrical connection between the wire and the solar panel is achieved through the electrical connection between the second conductive contact and the first conductive contact.

[0013] A further design of the animal repeller is that a hole groove is arranged on the hole wall of the through hole corresponding to the output shaft of the motor on the mounting plate along the radial direction of the through hole, and a third conductive contact is arranged in the hole groove. The third conductive contact is connected to the bottom of the hole groove through a spring and extends out of the notch of the hole groove, and is electrically connected to the energy storage circuit arranged on the mounting plate.

[0014] A further design of the animal repeller is that the sensor control circuit includes a wireless signal detection unit, a microprocessor, an energy storage unit and a repeller output unit, the wireless signal detection unit includes: a sensor module and a transistor, the base of the transistor is connected to the signal output end of the sensor module through a resistor, the collector of the transistor is connected to the signal output end of the sensor module through another resistor and is communicatively connected to the microprocessor; the repeller output unit is a buzzer or an LED lamp arranged on the outside of the rotating cover or a combination of the buzzer and the LED lamp.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0018] The technical solution of the present application adopts an additional positioning mounting rod to directly drive and connect the rotating cover body and the output shaft of the motor. Therefore, the main body of the motor is arranged on the main body of the animal repeller base, which is equivalent to the motor directly driving the rotating cover body, and the mounting chassis is always in a stationary state. The load of the motor is small when it is operating, and energy is saved, which effectively increases the continuous working time of the animal repeller.

[0019] Furthermore, the design of the positioning mounting rod can simplify the assembly method of the rotating cover and the mounting chassis. It only needs to replace the original bonding method with a simple plug-in method, which is fast and efficient. The parts that do not contain lithium batteries can be directly transported to the sales location by air and then the lithium batteries can be installed. The rotating cover and the animal repeller body can be assembled. Since the assembly method is very simple and does not require too much additional labor cost, it greatly reduces the transportation cost and improves the transportation efficiency.

[0020] On the other hand, the positioning mounting rod can also play a restraining and guiding role on the wires between the solar panel and the battery, preventing the electrical components installed on the chassis from interfering with the wires when the rotating cover rotates.

[0030] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] Embodiment 1:

[0032] like Figure 1 The animal repeller of this embodiment is mainly composed of a rotating cover 1, a mounting plate 5 provided with a sensor control circuit 8, a solar panel 3, a motor 6, a positioning mounting rod 2 and a base 4. The motor 6 is fixed on the base 4, and the output shaft of the motor 5 passes through the mounting plate 5 and is connected to the positioning mounting rod 2 in a non-contact manner. The mounting plate 5 is fixed to the base 4, and the solar panel 3 is mounted on the rotating cover 1 and is electrically connected to the sensor control circuit 8 through a wire. The rotating cover 1 is connected to the positioning mounting rod 2 to realize synchronous rotation with the motor output shaft, and the positioning mounting rod 2 is used to realize the constraint of the wire when the rotating cover 1 rotates synchronously with the motor shaft.

[0033] like Figure 2 In this embodiment, the positioning mounting rod 2 is provided with a transmission hole 22 matching the output shaft at one end corresponding to the output shaft, and a positioning transmission hole 23 at the other end.

[0034] In this embodiment, the rotating cover body 1 is provided with a pin (not shown in the figure) adapted to the positioning transmission hole 23. The rotating cover body can be quickly assembled with the base 4 and connected to the motor 6 by inserting the pin into the positioning transmission hole 23. The pin used in this embodiment can also be replaced with a screw. The specific setting method should be known to those skilled in the art, so it will not be described here.

[0035] A group of U-shaped slots 21 for guiding the direction of the wires are provided on the positioning and mounting rod 2. The opening directions of the U-shaped slots 21 are opposite to each other, so as to prevent the wires from easily escaping from the restraining area formed by the two U-shaped slots 21, thereby ensuring the restraining effect of the positioning and mounting rod 2. Considering that the positioning and mounting rod 2 can play a restraining and guiding role on the wires between the solar panel 3 and the sensor control circuit 8 (lithium battery 53), the wires are routed through the periphery of the positioning and mounting rod 2. Although the wires can avoid interference between the components in the sensor control circuit 8, they will be entangled on the periphery of the positioning and mounting rod 2. Therefore, the motor 6 in this embodiment needs to be set as a synchronous motor 6. After the positioning and mounting rod 2 rotates to a certain angle, it is reversed to form a periodic operation, which can completely avoid the problem of interference between the twisted wires and the routing. The synchronous motor 6 is connected to the microprocessor in the sensor control circuit in communication, and the control line passes through the through hole opened in the mounting plate 5. The synchronous motor 6 is powered by a battery arranged in the base 4.

[0036] In addition, in order to further increase reliability, this embodiment sets a stopper 51 at the edge of the mounting plate 5. A blocking edge (not shown in the figure) matching the stopper 51 is set inside the cover body, so that the rotating cover body cannot rotate more than 360°.

[0037] In order to further ensure the restraining effect of the positioning and mounting rod 2, the two U-shaped slots 21 are arranged at the same radial position of the positioning and mounting rod 2. Figure 3 In this embodiment, a groove-shaped mounting portion 25 is provided at a radial position of the positioning mounting rod 2 , and the two U-shaped slots 21 are directly mounted on the mounting portion 25 .

[0038] The sensing control circuit 8 is mainly composed of a wireless signal detection unit, a microprocessor, an energy storage unit and a driving output unit. The microprocessor of this embodiment adopts a single chip microcomputer, see Figure 7 .like Figure 6 The wireless signal detection unit is mainly composed of a sensor module and a transistor Q1. The base of the transistor Q1 is connected to the signal output end of the sensor module through a resistor R6. The sensor module mainly senses approaching birds and rodents through radio frequency signals, and then sends the sensing signal to the microprocessor. The collector of the transistor Q1 is connected to the signal output end of the sensor module through another resistor R7 and is connected to the microprocessor for communication. The driving output unit is a buzzer or an LED lamp 11 arranged on the outside of the rotating cover, or a combination of a buzzer and an LED lamp 11. The buzzer 52 used in this embodiment (see the design circuit for details) Figure 8 ) and LED lights, the animal repeller of this embodiment adopts the appearance of an owl, and the LED lights are set at the eyes of the owl (see Figure 1), powered by an independent button battery or lithium battery 53, the LED lamp can be designed as a single color or a composite lamp of different colors, and the LED lamp is controlled by a microprocessor. Other configurations of the drive output unit are conventional configurations of those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail here.

[0039] like Figure 4 The energy storage unit includes: a lithium battery 53, a lithium battery charging management chip (TP4055), a lithium battery protection chip (DW02A) and a boost type DCDC power chip (SX1308). The lithium battery of this embodiment adopts a cylindrical 18650 lithium battery. The solar panel 3 is electrically connected to the lithium battery through the lithium battery charging management chip to form a charging circuit. The lithium battery protection chip is electrically connected to the lithium battery to prevent the lithium battery from being over-discharged or over-charged. The boost type DCDC power chip increases the voltage of the lithium battery to 5V and supplies power to the sensor control circuit to form a discharge circuit.

[0040] In order to increase the effect of bird repelling, the animal repellent of this embodiment can be wirelessly connected to the speakers or speakers of several power amplifiers. Therefore, this embodiment specifically adds a wireless signal sending unit to the sensor control circuit, see Figure 5 The wireless signal transmission unit is mainly composed of a radio frequency transmitter and an antenna. The antenna is connected to the radio frequency transmitter, and the radio frequency transmitter is connected to the microprocessor to receive control instructions from the microprocessor and send the control instructions to the outside world through the antenna.

[0041] A counterweight 41 is provided at the lower end of the base 4 of this embodiment so that the product can be more stably arranged in a fixed posture.

[0042] Embodiment 2:

[0043] This embodiment mainly constrains the wires within the positioning and mounting rod, so there is no need to limit the direction of the positioning and mounting rod and the motor, and there is no need to additionally set blocks and blocking edges on the mounting plate and the rotating cover respectively.

[0044] like Fig. 9 The positioning and mounting rod 2 of this embodiment is a hollow tube, and the wire 7 is encapsulated in the hollow tube 2. A conductive ring 27 is provided at the axial position of the hollow tube 2 relative to the mounting plate 5. The conductive ring 27 is axially positioned by the positioning step 26 of the positioning and mounting rod 2. One end of the wire 7 passes through the through hole opened in the tube wall of the positioning and mounting rod 2 and is electrically connected to the conductive ring 27 through a movable contact. The cross section of the movable contact is larger than the aperture of the through hole. The other end of the wire 27 is electrically connected to the first conductive contact 28 provided in the positioning transmission hole 23.

[0045] A second conductive contact 13 is provided at the front end of the pin, and the second conductive contact 13 is electrically connected to the solar panel 3. When the pin is inserted into the hollow tube 2, the electrical connection between the second conductive contact 13 and the first conductive contact 28 is realized to realize the electrical connection between the wire and the solar panel.

[0046] A hole groove 54 is provided on the wall of the hole corresponding to the output shaft of the motor on the mounting plate 5 along the radial direction of the hole. A third conductive contact 56 is provided in the hole groove 54. The third conductive contact 56 is connected to the bottom of the hole groove through a spring 55 and extends out of the notch of the hole groove to abut against the conductive ring 27, and is electrically connected to the sensor control circuit 8 (lithium battery 53) provided on the mounting plate 5. When the positioning mounting rod 2 rotates under the driving action of the motor output shaft 61, the conductive ring 27 rotates with it (there is relative movement). At this time, the third conductive contact 56 is always tightly against the conductive ring 27 by the spring 55, and the conductive ring 27 and the above-mentioned movable contact are always against each other, forming a conductive path, realizing the electrical connection between the solar cell panel 3 and the sensor control circuit 8 (lithium battery 53), and there is no need to consider the turning direction of the positioning mounting rod 2.

[0047] The other structures and settings of this embodiment are consistent with those of Embodiment 1 and will not be described in detail here.

[0048] The technical solutions of the above two embodiments adopt an additional positioning mounting rod to directly drive and connect the rotating cover body and the output shaft of the motor. Therefore, the main body of the motor is arranged on the main body of the animal repeller base, which is equivalent to the motor directly driving the rotating cover body, and the mounting chassis is always in a stationary state. The load of the motor is small when it is operating, and energy is saved, which effectively increases the continuous working time of the animal repeller.

[0049] Furthermore, the design of the positioning mounting rod can simplify the assembly method of the rotating cover and the mounting chassis. It only needs to replace the original bonding method with a simple plug-in method, which is fast and efficient. The parts that do not contain lithium batteries can be directly transported to the sales location by air and then the lithium batteries can be installed. The rotating cover and the animal repeller body can be assembled. Since the assembly method is very simple and does not require too much additional labor cost, it greatly reduces the transportation cost and improves the transportation efficiency.

[0050] On the other hand, the positioning mounting rod can also play a restraining and guiding role on the wires between the solar panel and the battery, preventing the electrical components installed on the chassis from interfering with the wires when the rotating cover rotates.
