Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to equipment for preventing and controlling bird damage in power systems, specifically a method and system for using lasers to repel birds. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of urban industrialization, the number of substations is constantly increasing, and the government is gradually improving the ecological environment. The frequency of birds nesting on power transmission and transformation equipment structures is on the rise. Incidents of bird nests causing short circuits and power outages due to tangled grass are frequent, severely impacting substations and seriously threatening the safe and stable operation of the power grid. For maintenance personnel, "bird nests are more dangerous than tigers" when it comes to power equipment, and they are terrified of them.

[0003] Currently, common bird control methods in power systems can be divided into two categories. The first category is the blocking type: mainly bird-proof barriers, which are installed at the connection points of inverted porcelain insulator bases, wind-proof inverted porcelain insulator bases, and structural beams. This method has a relatively good bird-proofing effect, but the installation cost is high and involves power outages. Moreover, as the products age, there is a risk of more serious accidents later on, so they need to be replaced regularly. The second category is the repelling type: mainly bird spikes, bird-proof mirrors, ultrasonic bird repellents, sound and light bird repellents, etc. These devices are effective in the initial stage, but their effectiveness gradually decreases with the length of time they are used, and in severe cases, they become ineffective.

The terminology used in the embodiments of this application is for the purpose of describing the embodiments of this application only and is not intended to limit this application.

[0068] Before providing a further detailed description of the embodiments of this application, the nouns and terms involved in the embodiments of this application will be explained, and the nouns and terms involved in the embodiments of this application shall be interpreted as follows.

[0069] The code disk (10) refers to a digital encoder for measuring angular displacement. It boasts advantages such as high resolution, high measurement accuracy, and reliable operation, making it one of the most commonly used displacement sensors for measuring shaft angular position. Code disks are divided into two types: absolute encoders and incremental encoders. The former directly outputs a digital code corresponding to the angular position; the latter uses a calculation system to add or subtract the pulse increments generated by rotating the code disk relative to a certain reference number.

[0070] A grating is an optical device consisting of a large number of parallel slits of equal width and spacing. Commonly used gratings are made by etching a large number of parallel grooves on a glass plate. The grooves are opaque, while the smooth parts between two grooves are transparent, which are equivalent to a slit.

[0071] Chromatic aberration: also known as color image aberration. When imaging with white light, in addition to the five monochromatic aberrations that will still be produced for each monochromatic light, there will also be dispersion caused by the different refractive indices of different colored light, which will cause different colored light to have different propagation paths, thus presenting aberrations caused by the difference in the light paths of different colored light.

[0072] In software, lumps of color refer to squares used to highlight and set colors.

[0073] The monitoring probe 2 is a video probe. The probe is a repackaged form of the sensor. It is a component that encapsulates the most basic unit of the sensor through reasonable electronic circuits and external packaging structure, so that it has some independent functions that we need. It is the same as the sensor.

[0074] Laser 3 employs a laser dazzler, utilizing the most sensitive 532nm laser. This allows it to illuminate objects miles away in low-light conditions, warn potential targets at long distances, and disperse large flocks of birds. When shone into the eyes, it causes temporary blindness and dizziness, thus quickly deterring birds.

[0075] This invention addresses the current state of bird control in power systems by specifically designing a gimbal structure 1. The gimbal 1 includes a horizontal outer shell, a horizontal motor 14, a vertical motor 12, a control terminal 6, a transmission assembly, a trajectory detection sensor 7, and a dual-compartment protective cover. The dual-compartment protective cover includes a laser housing 30 and a monitoring housing 20. The laser housing 30 provides waterproof and secure protection for the laser, while the monitoring housing 20 protects the monitoring probe from rain and sun.

[0076] The control terminal 6 contains a power control board 60 and a program control board 61. The program control board 61 is responsible for recording and executing programs. The program control board 61 includes software programs such as a region delineation module, a comparison module, a trajectory correction module, and a trajectory control module. The region delineation module divides the protection area into multiple regions and sets the start and end points of each region. The comparison module determines whether the pixel difference of color blocks reaches a set value based on the color block comparison results. The trajectory correction module corrects the rotation trajectory of the monitoring probe 2 based on feedback data from the trajectory detection sensor 7. The trajectory control module records the rotation trajectory of the monitoring probe 2 and controls the monitoring probe 2 to rotate according to the set rotation trajectory.

[0077] The power control board 60 of the pan-tilt unit 1 is mainly responsible for regulating the input power supply. The power control board 60 is connected to the power control cabinet 4, which is used for power voltage conversion and controlling the automatic start / stop time of the equipment, enabling automatic assembly of the laser screen. The power control cabinet 4 has an input power of 220V, a device power supply of 12V, and a maximum power of ≤30W. The bottom of the power control cabinet 4 is equipped with a mounting bracket 5, which is used to mount and fix the power control cabinet 4, pan-tilt unit 1, and other upper components. The mounting bracket 5 is made of stainless steel to protect and facilitate the power supply connection cables. A fixing plate is installed at the bottom of the mounting bracket 5, which securely connects it to the concrete foundation at the bottom of the bracket.

[0078] The transmission assembly includes transmission parts, timing belts, timing pulleys, connecting shafts, etc. Timing belts are used in conjunction with timing pulleys, and include vertical timing belts 11 and horizontal timing belts 15.

[0079] The connecting shaft includes a vertical connecting shaft 16 and a horizontal connecting shaft 13. The pan-tilt unit 1 drives the monitoring probe 2 and the laser 3 to rotate through the horizontal connecting shaft 13. This includes the monitoring probe 2 and the laser 3 being fixedly installed on the pan-tilt unit 1 and rotating synchronously with the pan-tilt unit 1. It also includes the control terminal 6 controlling the monitoring probe 2 and the laser 3 to rotate synchronously through the horizontal connecting shaft 13 when the pan-tilt unit 1 is stationary.

[0080] The horizontal connecting shaft 13 is connected to the horizontal motor 14, which is driven and controlled by the horizontal synchronous belt 15. The vertical connecting shaft 16 is used to connect and fix the monitoring probe 2 and the laser 3. The vertical connecting shaft 16 is connected to the vertical motor 12, which is driven and controlled by the vertical synchronous belt 11 to rotate or perform other movements. This invention includes a code reader 17, a code disk 10, and a grating for trajectory detection on the horizontal connecting shaft 13. Specifically, this invention improves measurement accuracy by using the grating in conjunction with the code disk 10.

[0081] Specifically, the horizontal motor 14, in conjunction with the transmission assembly, primarily controls the horizontal movement of the gimbal 1 from 0 to 360 degrees, while the vertical motor 12, also in conjunction with the transmission assembly, primarily controls the vertical movement of the gimbal 1 from ±90 degrees. Through the coordinated connection between the horizontal motor 14, the vertical motor 12, and the transmission assembly, the rotation angle of the gimbal 1 can be within the vertical range of ±90 degrees and the horizontal range of 0 to 360 degrees. Custom-developed control software for the gimbal 1 is integrated into the program control board 61, allowing for the setting of the movement range and effectively avoiding residential, commercial, and other areas to prevent unnecessary complaints. One side of the dual-compartment housing is primarily used to house the built-in scanning laser 3, which emits a high-brightness, movable, variable-state rod-shaped laser for bird deterrence. The laser wavelength is 532nm, and the optical power is ≤1.2W. The other side is mainly responsible for installing the built-in monitoring probe 2, which is a 200W pixel zoom probe. The trajectory detection sensor 7 includes: a code disk 10, a grating, and a code reader 17.

[0082] Based on the above-mentioned laser bird deterrence system, this invention will be further described in detail using the application scenario of bird deterrence work on a substation gantry 40 as an example.

[0083] First, the gantry spacing varies depending on the substation voltage level. This invention uses the zoom and focus of monitoring probe 2 to divide the protected area of ​​the gantry into five regions: A, B, C, D, and E. Start and end points can be set for each of these five regions. By setting the start point A1 and end point A2 for region A through program debugging, the program control board 61 automatically saves the entire movement trajectory from A1 to A2 and executes it automatically. Similarly, regions B, C, D, and E can be set and saved sequentially, and then executed. Assuming the detection time for each of the five regions (A, B, C, D, E) is 5 minutes, this means the dwell time for each region is 5 minutes. If a moving object enters within these 5 minutes and can be detected by the probe, the laser zone will be activated for that designated area. Multiple pan-tilt units 1 and monitoring probes 2 can detect from different angles, forming a complementary protection for the power equipment area and effectively avoiding laser irradiation of other areas, thus preventing light pollution. The laser irradiation area is as follows: Figure 6 As shown.

[0084] The present invention also has a real-time correction function. When the gimbal 1 leaves the factory, it will be set with an initial original coordinate position, which we usually define as X and Y, with the horizontal direction as X and the vertical direction as Y, and the coordinate as (0.0). We set the protection area according to the on-site use scenario, and set the coordinates in the corresponding mode respectively. The setting can be done according to the debugging steps and the tracking mode can be operated. The trajectory of the gimbal 1 in the X and Y directions is controlled by the duty cycle of the horizontal motor 14 and the vertical motor 12.

[0085] When the monitoring trajectory of the device changes due to external force or other human intervention, the data of the motor, the data detected by the encoder 10, the data detected by the grating, and the data of the barcode reader 17 will be inconsistent. The control terminal 6 of the PTZ 1 will make corrections by adjusting the duty cycle of the horizontal motor 14 and the vertical motor 12 based on the data fed back by the trajectory detection sensor 7.

[0086] When subjected to excessive external forces or other interference, making it impossible for the device to correct to the set operating trajectory, the control terminal 6 of the PTZ 1 will automatically cut off the power to the laser 3 and keep it in a stopped state, so that the PTZ 1 enters a safety protection state for residential areas, commercial areas and other areas, preventing the laser 3 from irradiating residential areas, commercial areas and other areas.

[0087] This invention provides a specific embodiment to further illustrate the laser bird-repelling method of this application.

[0088] This application's monitoring probe 2 uses a 200W pixel sensor for capture. Higher pixel counts result in clearer images. Based on the distance from the gantry crane, the monitoring probe 2 can be focused to divide the image into five areas, with corresponding start and end points set for protection. When a foreign object enters, the monitoring probe 2 will compare the images frame by frame based on the color blocks.

[0089] Specifically, Figure 4 This invention utilizes a common gantry structure found in substation systems. The interval length of the gantry varies depending on the voltage level. By analyzing the monitoring screen, this invention can divide the image into several color blocks for color difference discrimination and comparison to obtain the desired result. Figure 5 Similar images.

[0090] When a moving object enters, the built-in program performs a color difference comparison using an internal grid. If a moving object is detected within the designated monitoring range, a trigger signal is sent to the pan-tilt unit 1 and laser unit 3, initiating a bird-repelling command. The sensitivity threshold can be adjusted through the program settings to detect smaller moving objects. When the pixel difference of the color blocks reaches a set value, a corresponding data signal is triggered. This data signal is then used to interface with the pan-tilt unit 1, activating laser unit 3 to perform the bird-repelling operation.

[0091] This invention addresses security protection in residential areas, commercial areas, and other regions, and further explains a specific implementation method, such as... Figure 1 As shown.

[0092] S101. Set the zoom data of monitoring probe 2 according to the protection range, and perform zoom adjustment on monitoring probe 2 to divide the protection range into multiple areas, specifically dividing the protection range into five areas: A, B, C, D, and E.

[0093] S102. Set a starting point and an ending point for each area. By controlling the rotation of the monitoring probe 2, complete the detection of the monitoring probe 2 from the starting point to the ending point. Specifically, set the starting point A1 and the ending point A2 for area A, record the rotation trajectory of the monitoring probe 2 from the starting point A1 to the ending point A2, and record the rotation trajectory of the monitoring probe 2 in areas B, C, D, and E.

[0094] This invention establishes an avoidance zone and sets the rotation trajectory of the monitoring probe 2 based on this zone. The duty cycles of the horizontal motor 14 and the vertical motor 12 are adjusted to control the monitoring probe 2 to rotate along the set trajectory. When the rotation trajectory of the monitoring probe 2 changes due to external forces, the trajectory is corrected based on feedback data from the trajectory detection sensor 7. If the correction to the set trajectory fails, the power to the laser 3 is cut off, and the system enters a stop-work state. Simultaneously, multiple pan-tilt units 1 are set to detect each area from different angles, and the detection time for each pan-tilt unit 1 in each area is set.

[0095] S103, the pan-tilt unit 1 stays in area A for 5 minutes. During these 5 minutes, the monitoring probe 2 starts detecting from the starting point A1 and ends at the ending point A2.

[0096] During the detection process of the monitoring probe 2, the present invention divides the monitoring screen or the captured image into several color blocks. By performing color difference identification and comparison on each frame of the several color blocks, foreign objects are detected.

[0097] S104. When the pixel difference of the color block reaches the set value, a data signal is triggered;

[0098] S105. Activate laser 3 to carry out bird deterrence operation based on data signal.

[0099] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Therefore, the invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
