Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power system technology, and in particular to a control method and system for bird control in power transmission equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Cable transmission is a common power supply method in power systems. Therefore, environmental maintenance of outdoor cables has become an important concern for power systems. In particular, during cable transmission, transmission equipment (such as distribution lines) is frequently damaged by birds (such as birds nesting), causing dangerous situations such as line grounding, tripping, fire, and short circuits. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out timely and effective bird control on distribution lines.

[0003] Currently, existing bird deterrent devices typically use wind power to drive the deterrent device or spray bird repellent. However, these methods or devices cannot maintain effective bird deterrence for extended periods. Birds, when accustomed to their surroundings or without the use of repellent, will still nest at the crossarms of power distribution lines, significantly increasing the risks of grounding, tripping, fires, and short circuits. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a bird control system for power transmission equipment to address these issues. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a control method and system for bird deterrence of power transmission equipment, the main purpose of which is to solve the problems of low efficiency and poor effectiveness of bird deterrence of power transmission equipment in the existing power system.

[0005] According to one aspect of the present invention, a method for controlling bird control in power transmission equipment is provided, comprising:

[0006] The terminal processor determines whether the first level signal collected by the gravity detector generates a first bird deterrent instruction.

[0007] If the terminal processor generates a first bird deterrent instruction, the terminal processor sends a moving and impact command to the drive device to cause at least two fan blades on the drive device to move and impact each other.

[0008] The terminal processor re-determines whether to generate a second bird deterrence instruction based on the second level signal collected by the gravity detector;

[0009] If the terminal processor generates a second bird deterrent instruction, the terminal processor sends a light-emitting command to the light-emitting element configured on the gravity detector, so that the light-emitting element flashes.

[0010] If the terminal processor does not generate a second bird deterrence instruction, the terminal processor records the bird deterrence information.

[0011] Furthermore, the gravity detector consists of multiple gravity detection nodes located at the target bird-repelling position. The step of determining whether to generate a first bird-repelling instruction based on the first level signal collected by the gravity detector via the terminal processor includes:

[0012] The terminal processor acquires first level signals collected by multiple gravity nodes within a preset sampling time, and the first level signals include multiple first level sub-signals;

[0013] The terminal processing determines whether there are at least two pairs of adjacent high-level signals in the first level sub-signal, in order to determine whether to generate a first bird deterrent instruction; or,

[0014] The terminal processor determines whether the positions of multiple target gravity detection nodes that are high-level signals in the first level sub-signal are the same within three consecutive preset sampling durations, so as to determine whether to generate a first bird deterrence instruction.

[0015] Before the terminal processor generates the first bird deterrence instruction, the method further includes:

[0016] When the terminal processor determines that there are at least two pairs of adjacent high-level signals in the first level sub-signal, a first bird deterrent instruction is generated; or,

[0017] When the terminal processor determines that multiple target gravity detection nodes with high-level signals in the first level sub-signal have the same position within three consecutive preset sampling durations, a first bird deterrent instruction is generated.

[0018] Furthermore, the driving device includes a motor, a winding reel, a torsion spring, a connecting wire, and fan blades connected by the connecting wire. The terminal processor sends a moving and impact command to the driving device, including:

[0019] The terminal processor obtains the updated rotational speed and the number of times the drive device drives the fan blades to rotate in opposite directions; and generates a command to move in opposite directions and collide based on the rotational speed and the number of times the fan blades rotate in opposite directions.

[0020] The terminal processor sends a moving and impact command to the driving device, so that the motor in the driving device drives the winding disk to rotate at the specified speed, and drives the fan blades to rotate in opposite directions through the connecting wire.

[0021] Furthermore, after the terminal processor records the bird-repelling information, the method further includes:

[0022] The terminal processor sends the bird-repelling information to the server at preset time intervals;

[0023] The server determines the rotational speed and the number of times the bird is driven in opposite directions based on the number of bird drives and the bird location in the bird drive information, and sends the rotational speed and the number of times the blades are driven in opposite directions to the terminal processor for updating.

[0024] Furthermore, the server determines the rotational speed at which the drive device drives the fan blades to rotate in opposite directions based on the number of bird-repelling incidents and the bird-repelling locations in the bird-repelling information, including:

[0025] The server obtains a pre-set first rotation speed and a rotation speed bird deterrence mapping relationship, the rotation speed bird deterrence mapping relationship including the rotation speeds corresponding to different bird deterrence times and different bird deterrence positions;

[0026] The server determines the rotation speed and the number of opposite rotations corresponding to the current bird-driving position in the bird-driving information based on the rotation speed-bird-driving mapping relationship, and sends it to the terminal processor.

[0027] Furthermore, the method also includes:

[0028] If the terminal processor determines that multiple sub-level signals in the first level signal are high-level signals within five consecutive preset sampling durations, and the position of the gravity detection node corresponding to the high-level signal remains unchanged, then it sends a bird-repelling anomaly signal to the server so that the server can arrange inspection personnel to conduct offline inspections.

[0029] According to another aspect of the present invention, a control system for bird deterrence in power transmission equipment is provided, comprising:

[0030] Terminal processor, drive device, fan blades, gravity detector,

[0031] The terminal processor is used to determine whether a first bird deterrence instruction is generated based on the first level signal collected by the gravity detector, and to send a moving and impact command to the drive device so that at least two fan blades located on the drive device move and impact each other.

[0032] The terminal processor is further configured to re-determine whether a second bird deterrence instruction is generated based on the second level signal collected by the gravity detector. If a second bird deterrence instruction is generated, a light-emitting command is sent to the light-emitting element configured on the gravity detector to make the light-emitting element flash. If no second bird deterrence instruction is generated, the terminal processor records the bird deterrence information.

[0033] Furthermore, the gravity detector consists of multiple gravity detection nodes, which are located at the target bird-repelling position.

[0034] The terminal processor is further configured to acquire first-level signals collected by multiple gravity nodes within a preset sampling time, wherein the first-level signals include multiple first-level sub-signals; determine whether there are at least two pairs of adjacent high-level signals in the first-level sub-signals to determine whether a first bird deterrence instruction is generated; or, determine whether the positions of multiple target gravity detection nodes that are high-level signals in the first-level sub-signals are the same within three consecutive preset sampling time periods to determine whether a first bird deterrence instruction is generated.

[0035] The terminal processor is further configured to generate a first bird deterrence instruction when it is determined that there are at least two pairs of adjacent high-level signals in the first level sub-signal; or, when it is determined that within three consecutive preset sampling durations, multiple target gravity detection nodes that are high-level signals in the first level sub-signal have the same position, generate a first bird deterrence instruction.

[0036] Furthermore, the system also includes: a server.

[0037] The server is configured to determine, based on the bird deterrence information, the rotational speed and the number of times the bird is deterred, and the bird deterrence location in the bird deterrence information, for the driving device to drive the fan blades to rotate in opposite directions, and to send the rotational speed and the number of times the fan blades rotate in opposite directions to the terminal processor for updating.

[0038] Furthermore, the drive device includes a motor, a winding reel, a torsion spring, a connecting wire, and fan blades connected via the connecting wire.

[0039] The terminal processor is further configured to acquire the updated rotational speed and the number of times the drive device drives the fan blades to rotate in opposite directions; generate a moving and impact command based on the rotational speed and the number of times the fan blades rotate in opposite directions; and send the moving and impact command to the drive device so that the motor in the drive device drives the winding disk to rotate according to the rotational speed and drives the fan blades to rotate in opposite directions through the connecting wire.

[0040] The system also includes: solar power cells,

[0041] The solar cell is used to provide power to the terminal processor, the gravity detector, and the drive device.

[0042] By employing the above-described technical solutions, the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present invention have at least the following advantages:

[0043] This invention provides a control method and system for bird control in power transmission equipment. Compared with existing technologies, this invention's embodiments determine whether a first bird control instruction is generated based on a first level signal collected by a gravity detector through a terminal processor. If the terminal processor generates the first bird control instruction, it sends a moving and impact command to the driving device, causing at least two blades on the driving device to move and impact each other. The terminal processor then re-determines whether a second bird control instruction is generated based on a second level signal collected by the gravity detector. If the terminal processor generates the second bird control instruction, it sends a light-emitting command to a light-emitting element configured on the gravity detector, causing the light-emitting element to flash. If the terminal processor does not generate the second bird control instruction, it records the bird control information, greatly reducing the likelihood of birds nesting at the crossarm of the power distribution line, significantly reducing the risks of grounding, tripping, fire, and short circuits in the power distribution line, thereby meeting the bird control requirements to avoid safety risks to power transmission equipment.

[0044] The above description is merely an overview of the technical solution of the present invention.

[0053] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0054] Bird deterrence devices typically employ wind-powered robotic arms or supports, flashing light sources, or spraying bird repellents. However, these methods and devices cannot maintain effective bird control for extended periods. Birds, when accustomed to their surroundings or without spraying, will still nest on the crossarms of power distribution lines, significantly increasing the risks of grounding, tripping, fires, and short circuits. This invention provides a control method for bird deterrence on power transmission equipment, such as… Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0055] 101. The terminal processor determines whether the first level signal collected by the gravity detector generates the first bird deterrent instruction.

[0056] In this embodiment of the invention, the terminal processor can be a microcontroller, CPU, or other processor with computing capabilities. After the gravity detector collects the level signal, it transmits it to the terminal processor. The terminal processor's computing function determines whether to generate a first bird deterrent indication based on this level signal. The gravity detector is a strip-shaped gravity sensor of a preset length, with multiple gravity sensors arranged on a preset-length, insulating strip, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the gravity detector consists of multiple gravity detection nodes, each equipped with a gravity sensor. The gravity detection nodes are located at the target bird-repelling position, and this embodiment of the invention does not impose specific limitations. In a specific implementation scenario, when a bird nests at a gravity node, it is affected by gravity, and the gravity sensor transmits an electrical signal to the terminal processor so that the terminal processor can determine whether to generate a bird-repelling instruction.

[0057] 102. If the terminal processor generates a first bird deterrent instruction, the terminal processor sends a moving and impact command to the driving device to cause at least two fan blades on the driving device to move and impact each other.

[0058] In this embodiment of the invention, when the terminal processor generates a first bird deterrent instruction, it indicates that the terminal processor has determined that birds are nesting at the gravity detection node, and therefore generates the first bird deterrent instruction. At this time, the terminal processor sends a moving-in-the-direction and impact command to the driving device connected to the data connection, so that the driving device drives the connected fan blades to move in the opposite direction and impact. Wherein, as... Figure 3 The top view of the casing shown shows that the fan blades are a pair of rectangular thin plates connected by a shaft to the drive device. They are made of insulating material. The terminal processor and the drive device are integrated into the casing, and the fan blades are outside the casing. The fan blades are different, so that when the fan blades move towards each other and collide, a certain amount of wind can be generated to drive away nesting birds.

[0059] It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the invention, in order to drive away birds and prevent them from nesting, protruding parts made of insulating materials such as ceramics can be configured at the symmetrical points where the fan blades move towards each other and collide. This allows the fan blades to not only generate a wind effect when they move towards each other and collide, but also generate sound to drive away birds, thereby improving the bird-driving effect.

[0060] 103. The terminal processor re-determines whether to generate a second bird deterrence instruction based on the second level signal collected by the gravity detector.

[0061] In this embodiment of the invention, in order to target the characteristics of birds and improve the bird deterrence effect, thereby avoiding the occurrence of safety hazards in power transmission equipment, after a bird deterrence is performed based on the fan blades, the terminal processor immediately reacquires the second level signal collected by the gravity detector to determine whether to generate a second bird deterrence instruction, that is, to determine whether to perform bird deterrence again.

[0062] It should be noted that when the terminal processor determines whether to generate a second bird deterrence instruction based on the second level signal, the method is the same as the method for determining whether to generate a first bird deterrence instruction based on the first level signal, and the embodiments of the present invention do not impose specific limitations.

[0063] 104. If the terminal processor generates a second bird deterrent instruction, the terminal processor sends a light-emitting command to the light-emitting element configured on the gravity detector to cause the light-emitting element to flash.

[0064] In this embodiment of the invention, if the terminal processor generates a second bird-repelling instruction, it indicates that the first bird-repelling attempt failed. Therefore, the terminal processor sends a light-emitting command to the light-emitting element configured on the gravity detector, causing the light-emitting element to flash and repel birds. Since the gravity detector consists of an insulating strip and various gravity detection nodes placed on the insulating strip, a light-emitting element, such as an LED, is also configured on the gravity detector for secondary bird repelling, thereby repelling birds secondaryly through flashing. Figure 4As shown, each gravity detection node is equipped with a corresponding light-emitting element, such as an LED. The light-emitting element can be connected to the terminal processor in series or parallel to enable the terminal processor to send an instruction to the corresponding light-emitting element to flash.

[0065] In a specific implementation scenario, 10 gravity detection nodes are arranged on the insulating strip, in a sequence of 1-10 as needed. When the terminal processor determines, based on the high-level signal collected by the gravity sensor at the 4th gravity detection node, that nesting still occurs at the 4th gravity detection node after the first bird deterrence, it sends a light-emitting command to the LED light configured at the 4th gravity detection node, or sends a light-emitting command to the LEDs on all gravity detection nodes, so that birds are deterred by flashing lights. This embodiment of the invention does not impose specific limitations.

[0066] 105. If the terminal processor does not generate a second bird deterrence instruction, the terminal processor records the bird deterrence information.

[0067] In this embodiment of the invention, when the terminal processor does not generate a second bird-repelling instruction, it indicates that the first bird-repelling operation via the fan blades moving towards each other and impacting has been completed. Therefore, the terminal processor records the current bird-repelling information, which includes the number of bird-repelling attempts and the bird-repelling location. The number of bird-repelling attempts is the cumulative number of times the fan blades have moved towards each other and impacting to repel birds at the current moment. The bird-repelling location is the location of the node where a high-level signal is detected at the gravity detection node, and the bird-repelling information is sent to the server that has a wireless data connection with the terminal processor. For example, in a specific implementation scenario, a high-level signal is detected at gravity detection node a, and the number of bird-repelling attempts determined after the fan blades have moved towards each other and impacted twice according to the rotation speed updated in the terminal processor is 2. This embodiment of the invention does not impose specific limitations.

[0068] It should be noted that in this embodiment of the invention, the terminal processor is also connected to a solar cell so that the solar cell can provide power to the terminal processor. Simultaneously, the terminal processor can send bird-repelling information to the server via wireless transmission devices such as antennas.

[0069] In another embodiment of the invention, for further description and limitation, such as Figure 5 As shown, the step of determining whether to generate a first bird deterrence instruction based on the first level signal collected by the gravity detector through the terminal processor includes:

[0070] 201. The terminal processor acquires the first level signal collected by the multiple gravity nodes within a preset sampling time.

[0071] 202. The terminal processing determines whether there are at least two pairs of adjacent high-level signals in the first level sub-signal, in order to determine whether to generate a first bird deterrent instruction; or,

[0072] 203. The terminal processor determines whether the positions of multiple target gravity detection nodes that are high-level signals in the first level sub-signal are the same within three consecutive preset sampling durations, so as to determine whether to generate a first bird deterrence instruction.

[0073] To accurately determine whether to generate a first bird deterrence instruction based on the first level signal acquired by the gravity detector, the terminal processor first acquires the first level signals collected from multiple target gravity detection nodes on the insulating strip according to a preset sampling time. Since there are multiple gravity detection nodes, each node corresponds to a level sub-signal, meaning the first level signal includes multiple first level sub-signals. Based on these multiple first level sub-signals, it is determined whether to generate a first bird deterrence instruction. The gravity detector consists of multiple gravity detection nodes configured on the insulating strip. These nodes are arranged by arranging the insulating strip, meaning they are located at the target bird deterrence position. This embodiment of the invention does not impose specific limitations on this method.

[0074] In a specific implementation scenario, the terminal processor determines whether there are two or more pairs of adjacent high-level signals among all the sampled first-level sub-signals. Specifically, when arranging insulating strips, two gravity detectors can be placed at potential nesting locations; two adjacent gravity detection nodes constitute a pair. Since birds place numerous twigs and other materials on the crossbars of power transmission equipment when nesting, using at least two pairs of adjacent high-level signals as the basis for generating the first bird deterrent indication significantly improves the accuracy of confirming bird nesting. Simultaneously, the mobile terminal can also perform three consecutive samplings at a preset sampling duration. If the positions of multiple target gravity detection nodes with high-level signals are identical, it indicates that birds have appeared many times at a fixed location. Therefore, using these as the basis for generating the first bird deterrent indication also greatly improves the accuracy of confirming bird nesting.

[0075] Correspondingly, before the terminal processor generates the first bird deterrence instruction, the method further includes:

[0076] When the terminal processor determines that there are at least two pairs of adjacent high-level signals in the first level sub-signal, a first bird deterrent instruction is generated; or,

[0077] When the terminal processor determines that multiple target gravity detection nodes with high-level signals in the first level sub-signal have the same position within three consecutive preset sampling durations, a first bird deterrent instruction is generated.

[0078] In another embodiment of the invention, for further description and limitation, the step of the terminal processor sending the opposing movement and impact command to the driving device includes:

[0079] The terminal processor obtains the updated rotational speed and the number of times the drive device drives the fan blades to rotate in opposite directions; and generates a command to move in opposite directions and collide based on the rotational speed and the number of times the fan blades rotate in opposite directions.

[0080] The terminal processor sends a moving and impact command to the driving device, so that the motor in the driving device drives the winding disk to rotate at the specified speed, and drives the fan blades to rotate in opposite directions through the connecting wire.

[0081] To effectively control the opposing movement of the drive unit and the impact of the fan blades to generate wind and sound for bird control, the terminal processor obtains the updated rotation speed and number of opposing rotations of the drive unit. Based on this speed and number of rotations, it generates an opposing movement and impact command, causing the motor in the drive unit to rotate the winding reel, pulling the connecting wire to move the fan blades towards each other and impact them. After the fan blades move towards each other and impact, the torsion spring placed between the two fan blades compresses and rebounds, returning the fan blades to their original position, so that the next opposing movement and impact can be performed according to the number of rotations.

[0082] It should be noted that, as Figure 6 As shown, the housing 31 contains a drive device and a terminal processor. The terminal processor is connected to the gravity detector within the housing, and an insulating strip 32, with gravity sensor nodes arranged in a row, extends from the housing 31. The drive device includes a motor and connecting wires. Two fan blades 34 are hinged to a column on the housing and can rotate towards and away from each other around the column. The motor is located inside the housing 31, and a winding disc is coaxially mounted on the motor shaft. A portion of the connecting wire 33 is wound around the winding disc, and one end of the connecting wire 33 passes through a wire outlet hole in the housing 31 and connects to the end of the fan blade 34 away from the column. After the motor drives the winding disc to rotate according to its speed, it pulls the two fan blades 34 towards each other through the connecting wire, causing them to collide and produce a sound. At this time, the two fan blades are in a compressed state through a torsion spring 35. The fan blades may also have protruding parts (such as ceramic plates) 36 to collide and produce a sound when the fan blades rotate towards each other to their limit positions. After the motor stops rotating once according to the speed, the torsion spring 35 returns the fan blade 34 to its original position based on its elasticity. At this time, the connecting wire 33 wound on the winding spool also returns to its original position, so that the motor can determine the fan blades to rotate in opposite directions again according to the speed.

[0083] In another embodiment of the invention, for further explanation and limitation, after the terminal processor records the bird deterrence information, the method further includes:

[0084] The terminal processor sends the bird-repelling information to the server at preset time intervals;

[0085] The server determines the rotational speed and the number of times the bird is driven in opposite directions based on the number of bird drives and the bird location in the bird drive information, and sends the rotational speed and the number of times the blades are driven in opposite directions to the terminal processor for updating.

[0086] To achieve intelligent speed updates for bird deterrence and improve its effectiveness, the terminal processor records bird deterrence information and then sends this information to the server at preset time intervals, such as every 5 seconds or 10 seconds (this embodiment of the invention does not specify a specific time limit). When the server receives the number of bird deterrence attempts and the bird's location, it determines the rotational speed and the number of times the fan blades rotate in opposite directions. The server then feeds back the newly determined rotational speed and number of rotations to the terminal processor to update the stored rotational speed and number of rotations (this embodiment of the invention does not specify a specific time limit).

[0087] In another embodiment of the invention, for further explanation and limitation, the step of the server determining the rotational speed of the driving device for driving the fan blades to rotate in opposite directions based on the number of bird-repelling times and the bird-repelling location in the bird-repelling information includes:

[0088] The server obtains a pre-set first rotation speed and the rotation speed-bird deterrence mapping relationship;

[0089] The server determines the rotation speed and the number of opposite rotations corresponding to the current bird-driving position in the bird-driving information based on the rotation speed-bird-driving mapping relationship, and sends it to the terminal processor.

[0090] To accurately drive the fan blades to move towards each other and collide, thereby removing nesting birds, after the server receives the bird-repelling information sent by the terminal processor, it searches for a matching rotational speed in the rotational speed bird-repelling mapping relationship based on the number of bird-repelling attempts and the bird-repelling location in the bird-repelling information. The rotational speed in the mobile processor is then updated using this newly found rotational speed. The rotational speed bird-repelling mapping relationship includes the rotational speed and the number of opposite rotations corresponding to different bird-repelling attempts and locations. This is configured based on the experience of technicians in bird-repelling history. Generally, the higher the number of bird-repelling attempts and the farther the bird-repelling location is from the fan blades, the higher the rotational speed. This higher rotational speed drives the fan blades to move towards each other with greater force and collide, creating a stronger wind or noise to repel the birds. The number of opposite rotations refers to the number of times the fan blades move towards each other and collide at the latest rotational speed under a single bird-repelling instruction. For example, after a bird-repelling instruction is generated, the fan blades are driven to move towards each other and collide twice according to the latest number of opposite rotations (2) in the terminal processor. This embodiment of the invention does not impose specific limitations.

[0091] In another embodiment of the invention, for further description and limitation, the steps further include:

[0092] If the terminal processor determines that multiple sub-level signals in the first level signal are high-level signals within five consecutive preset sampling durations, and the position of the gravity detection node corresponding to the high-level signal remains unchanged, then it sends a bird-repelling anomaly signal to the server so that the server can arrange inspection personnel to conduct offline inspections.

[0093] To prevent birds from nesting despite repeated bird deterrence, thus affecting the safe power transmission of the equipment and reducing the probability of equipment damage, the terminal processor determines that multiple sub-level signals in the first level signal are high-level signals within five consecutive preset sampling durations. Preferably, since the insulating strip is 20 meters long and a gravity detector is placed at half a meter interval, when there are 10 high-level sub-level signals and the positions of these high-level gravity detection nodes remain unchanged, it indicates that the birds frequently stay in fixed locations. Therefore, a bird deterrence anomaly signal is sent to the server to indicate that the nesting birds have not been driven away despite multiple secondary bird deterrence attempts. This prompts the server to arrange for inspection personnel to conduct on-site inspections to determine whether manual bird deterrence is necessary.

[0094] This invention provides a bird control method for power transmission equipment. Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of this invention use a terminal processor to determine whether a first level signal collected by a gravity detector generates a first bird-repelling instruction. If the terminal processor generates a first bird-repelling instruction, it sends a moving and impact command to the driving device, causing at least two blades on the driving device to move and impact each other. The terminal processor then re-determines whether a second level signal collected by the gravity detector generates a second bird-repelling instruction. If the terminal processor generates a second bird-repelling instruction, it sends a light-emitting command to a light-emitting element configured on the gravity detector, causing the light-emitting element to flash. If the terminal processor does not generate a second bird-repelling instruction, it records the bird-repelling information. This significantly reduces the likelihood of birds nesting at the crossarm of the power distribution line, greatly reducing the risks of grounding, tripping, fire, and short circuits in the power distribution line, thereby meeting the bird-repelling requirements to avoid safety risks to power transmission equipment.

[0095] Furthermore, as a response to the above Figure 1 The implementation of the method shown in this embodiment of the invention provides a control system for bird control in power transmission equipment, such as... Figure 7 As shown, the system includes: a terminal processor 41, a drive device 42, a fan blade 43, and a gravity detector 44.

[0096] The terminal processor 41 is used to determine whether a first bird deterrence instruction is generated based on the first level signal collected by the gravity detector 44, and to send a moving and impact command to the drive device 42 so that the fan blades 43 located on the drive device 42 move and impact in opposite directions.

[0097] The terminal processor 41 is further configured to re-determine whether a second bird deterrence instruction is generated based on the second level signal collected by the gravity detector 44. If a second bird deterrence instruction is generated, a light-emitting command is sent to the light-emitting element configured on the gravity detector 44 to make the light-emitting element flash. If no second bird deterrence instruction is generated, the terminal processor 41 records the bird deterrence information.

[0098] Furthermore, the gravity detector consists of multiple gravity detection nodes, which are located at the target bird-repelling position.

[0099] The terminal processor is further configured to acquire first-level signals collected by multiple gravity nodes within a preset sampling time, wherein the first-level signals include multiple first-level sub-signals; determine whether there are at least two pairs of adjacent high-level signals in the first-level sub-signals to determine whether a first bird deterrence instruction is generated; or, determine whether the positions of multiple target gravity detection nodes that are high-level signals in the first-level sub-signals are the same within three consecutive preset sampling time periods to determine whether a first bird deterrence instruction is generated.

[0100] The terminal processor is further configured to generate a first bird deterrence instruction when it is determined that there are at least two pairs of adjacent high-level signals in the first level sub-signal; or, when it is determined that within three consecutive preset sampling durations, multiple target gravity detection nodes that are high-level signals in the first level sub-signal have the same position, generate a first bird deterrence instruction.

[0101] Furthermore, the system also includes: a server.

[0102] The server is configured to determine, based on the bird deterrence information, the rotational speed and the number of times the bird is deterred, and the bird deterrence location in the bird deterrence information, for the driving device to drive the fan blades to rotate in opposite directions, and to send the rotational speed and the number of times the fan blades rotate in opposite directions to the terminal processor for updating.

[0103] Furthermore, the drive device includes a motor, a winding reel, a torsion spring, a connecting wire, and fan blades connected via the connecting wire.

[0104] The terminal processor is further configured to acquire the updated rotational speed and the number of times the drive device drives the fan blades to rotate in opposite directions; generate a moving and impact command based on the rotational speed and the number of times the fan blades rotate in opposite directions; and send the moving and impact command to the drive device so that the motor in the drive device drives the winding disk to rotate according to the rotational speed and drives the fan blades to rotate in opposite directions through the connecting wire.

[0105] The system also includes: solar power cells,

[0106] The solar cell is used to provide power to the terminal processor, the gravity detector, and the drive device.

[0107] This invention provides a bird control system for power transmission equipment. Compared with existing technologies, this invention's embodiments use a terminal processor to determine whether a first level signal collected by a gravity detector generates a first bird-repelling instruction. If the terminal processor generates the first bird-repelling instruction, it sends a moving and impact command to the drive device, causing at least two blades on the drive device to move and impact each other. The terminal processor then re-determines whether a second level signal collected by the gravity detector generates a second bird-repelling instruction. If the terminal processor generates the second bird-repelling instruction, it sends a light-emitting command to a light-emitting element configured on the gravity detector, causing the light-emitting element to flash. If the terminal processor does not generate the second bird-repelling instruction, it records the bird-repelling information. This significantly reduces the likelihood of birds nesting on the crossarms of power distribution lines, greatly reducing the risks of grounding, tripping, fires, and short circuits in power distribution lines, thus meeting the bird-repelling requirements to avoid safety risks to power transmission equipment.
