Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a bird pest control system, and more particularly to a solar bird pest control system. Background Art

[0002] Currently, there are countermeasures to prevent bird damage by converting the electricity of solar panels into physical methods such as sound, light or movement. Specifically, in the prior art, it is disclosed that the mechanical power driven by solar energy is used to pull the clicker to drive away birds and reduce agricultural losses (Research Report of Agricultural Improvement Station in Taito District, Tokyo, Japan, 2014). There are also sensor modules that use photoresistors (Light Dependent Resistor, LDR) and real-time clocks (Real-time Clock, RTC) to automatically detect solar energy (Automated Dual Axis Sun Tracking Solar Panelsbased on LDR and RTC Sensor, 2021).

[0003] In addition, the relevant patent documents have recorded the use of a processor to determine whether the voltage of a strong sound bird-repelling device is sufficient, and to select whether to turn on or off the strong sound module, turn on the warning light, and adjust the sound frequency, sound interval, sound time and other parameters according to the voltage threshold (CN110074090A). It also records a solar panel sun tracking system and its control method, which uses a light intensity sensor to collect the voltage of each face of the solar panel facade to compare the light intensity of each face and adjust the orientation angle of the solar panel (CN101859152A).

[0004] However, the bird-repelling devices or methods disclosed in the above-mentioned prior art mostly involve using sensors and consuming a large amount of electricity or are only applicable to single and large solar bird-repelling devices or equipment. In addition, when using solar panels alone, if there are physical barriers blocking the sun in the environment or when the sun is tilted at different times and seasons, it is difficult to ensure sufficient power generation by simply setting the solar panels tilted. Furthermore, when using large built-in batteries or multiple solar panels, it is difficult for the overall device or system to reduce size and reduce costs. Although sensors (such as the aforementioned LDR, RTC or light intensity sensors, etc.) can be used to optimize the power generation efficiency of solar panels, in this case, the number of parts and sensors increases, and the cost will rise significantly. If the area to be set is too wide, the construction and maintenance costs may not cover the expenses.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need in the technical field of the present invention to provide a solar bird control system that can effectively adjust the direction of solar panels without sensors and simultaneously achieve the effect of driving away birds and reducing bird damage.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the control unit uses a motor to drive the appearance unit and the solar panel disposed outside the appearance unit.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the solar panel can be rotated horizontally, vertically or tilted relative to the base.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the control unit uses a motor to drive and rotate the appearance unit and the solar panel disposed outside the appearance unit for a preset time interval. Every time a second preset time interval passes, the control unit records the voltage of the rotating solar panel and stops when the voltage of the solar panel approaches the voltage of the maximum power generation position.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the control unit uses a motor to drive and rotate the appearance unit and the solar panel disposed outside the appearance unit, and also includes interrupting the solar panel to store the generated electrical energy in the battery before rotating the solar panel once every second preset time interval.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the second preset time interval is shorter than the first preset time interval.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the appearance unit includes a lower half and an upper half; the lower half is fixed relative to the base, and the upper half can rotate relative to the base; the solar panel is arranged on the upper half; the control unit, the motor, and the battery are arranged inside the upper half; a detection component is arranged between the lower half and the upper half for detecting the angle and / or position of the upper half relative to the lower half;

[0028] The following descriptions of the embodiments are made with reference to the attached drawings to illustrate specific embodiments in which the present invention may be implemented.

Therefore, the directional terms used are used to illustrate and understand the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. For the convenience of description, the proportions and relative positions in the drawings of the present invention may be exaggerated or may not be exactly the same as in the actual implementation. The contents of the drawings are only examples and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0029] See also Figure 1, which is a schematic block diagram of a solar bird pest control system provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The solar bird pest control system 1000 of the present invention comprises a solar panel 101, a motor, a control unit 103, a battery 104, an appearance unit 105 and a base 106, wherein the solar panel 101 is arranged outside the appearance unit 105, specifically, the appearance unit 105 has an outer surface (not shown), the solar panel 101 is arranged on the outer surface, and the motor, the control unit 103 and the battery 104 are arranged inside the appearance unit 105.

[0030] The solar panel 101 is used to absorb solar energy to generate electricity. In one embodiment, the solar panel 101 is set at an angle of at least 45 degrees relative to the horizontal plane of the base 106 or the ground, that is, the angle range with the horizontal plane is 45°≤angle≤90°, and the angle can be a positive integer. The angle between the solar panel 101 and the horizontal plane can also be adjusted through a movable structure to cope with different usage environments, but the present invention is not limited to this. The motor is electrically connected to the solar panel 101 through the control unit 103, and is used to drive the appearance unit 105 and the solar panel 101 thereon to rotate relative to the base 106. The motor of the present invention can be a DC permanent magnet motor or other motor, and the present invention does not limit the specific power, speed or type of the motor. In one embodiment, the solar panel 101 may be provided with a single-axis or multi-axis rotating mechanism (not shown in the figure) for the motor to be electrically connected through the control unit 103 and drive the solar panel 101 to rotate in a horizontal, vertical or inclined direction; in other embodiments, the solar panel may be fixed to the outside of the appearance unit 105, and the single-axis or multi-axis rotating mechanism is used for the motor to be electrically connected through the control unit 103 and drive the appearance unit 105, so that the appearance unit 105 rotates in a horizontal, vertical or inclined direction, thereby rotating the solar panel 101.

[0031] The control unit 103 is electrically connected to the solar panel 101 and the motor, and is used to control the rotation of the appearance unit 105 and the solar panel 101 thereon, and to control the driving of the motor. The control unit 103 can be an automatic control circuit board, a central processing unit (CPU) or other processors with data processing and / or data temporary storage functions, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The battery 104 is first electrically connected to the control unit 103, and then connected to the solar panel 101 and the motor through the control unit 103. The battery 104 is used to store the electrical energy generated by the solar panel and provide the electrical energy generated by the solar panel 101 to the motor and the control unit 103. The battery can be a circulating battery or other battery that can be connected and store the electrical energy generated by solar energy, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0032] The solar bird pest control system 1000 of the present invention controls the rotation of the exterior unit 105 and the solar panel 101 thereon through the control unit 103, records the voltage of the solar panel 101 at a certain interval, and records the maximum power generation position when the voltage value is the highest, so as to reset the maximum power generation position of the solar panel 101. Specifically, the solar bird pest control system 1000 can achieve the reset of the maximum power generation position by executing a series of actions.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the execution steps of a solar bird pest control system provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the operation and execution of a solar bird pest control system provided by an embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that in order to better describe the relationship between the sun and the solar bird pest control system 1000 of the present invention, Figure 3 The execution diagram shown is a top view. In addition, although the appearance unit 105 of the solar bird pest control system 1000 is shown in the shape of a raptor to drive away and deter small birds that like to feed on general food crops, the present invention is not limited to its appearance.

[0034] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the solar bird pest control system 1000 of the present invention can reset the maximum power generation position by performing the following actions:

[0035] Preliminary action S101 : The solar panel 101 temporarily stops storing the generated electrical energy in the battery 104 through the control unit 103 .

[0036] The first reset action S102: the control unit 103 drives the appearance unit 105 and the solar panel 101 thereon to rotate by the motor; each time the first preset time interval passes, the control unit 103 records the multiple power generation positions and voltages of the solar panel 101 after rotation, and records the power generation position with the highest voltage as the maximum power generation position of the solar panel 101.

[0037] The second reset action S103: the control unit 103 drives the appearance unit 105 and the solar panel 101 thereon to rotate at a constant speed for one circle with the motor; and the control unit 103 records the voltage of the solar panel 101 when it rotates continuously, and records the power generation position with the highest voltage as the maximum power generation position of the solar panel 101.

[0038] The third reset action S104: the control unit 103 drives the appearance unit 105 and the solar panel 101 thereon to rotate at a second preset time interval with the motor; and each time the second preset time interval passes, the control unit 103 records the voltage of the solar panel 101 after rotation, and stops when the voltage of the solar panel 101 is close to the voltage at the maximum power generation position.

[0039] In the pre-action S101, the control unit 103 can cut off the connection between the solar panel 101 and the battery 104 and stop generating electricity. Since the present invention does not detect voltage or light intensity through sensors, if the solar panel 101 is connected to the battery 104 when resetting the maximum power generation position, the voltage value is likely to be inaccurate. Therefore, in order to start resetting the maximum power generation position in advance, it is necessary to first stop charging the solar panel 101. The purpose of the present invention is to cut off the connection with the battery 104 when recording the voltage of the solar panel 101, so a method of repeatedly temporarily cutting off when recording the voltage of the solar panel 101 can be used. However, the present invention is not limited to this.

[0040] In the first reset action S102, the control unit 103 can send a first rotation signal to the motor so that the motor drives the appearance unit 105 and the solar panel 101 thereon to rotate one circle. It is worth mentioning that the aforementioned rotation amount is not limited to one circle, for example, it can also be half a circle, and the first rotation signal can include the value of the rotation direction, rotation time, rotation speed and the first preset time interval. For example, in one embodiment, the first preset time interval is 30 milliseconds (ms), which means that every 30 ms, the control unit 103 records the plurality of power generation positions and the voltages of the solar panel 101 after the rotation. For example, if the solar panel 101 can rotate 15 degrees every 30 ms, after the solar panel 101 rotates one circle, the control unit 103 will record the voltages of 24 power generation positions. Then the control unit 103 records the power generation position with the highest voltage as the maximum power generation position of the solar panel 101. The present invention does not limit the rotation angle of the appearance unit 105 and the solar panel 101 thereon after being driven.

[0041] In the second reset action S103, the control unit 103 can send a second rotation signal to the motor so that the motor drives the appearance unit 105 and the solar panel 101 thereon to rotate. The second rotation signal can include the rotation direction, rotation time, rotation speed, and the value of the first preset time interval. The rotation speed of the appearance unit 105 and the solar panel 101 thereon can be controlled by the rotation speed of the motor. Then, the control unit 103 will record the voltage of the solar panel 101 during the continuous rotation process according to the first preset time interval, and record the highest voltage value.

[0042] In the third reset action S104, the control unit 103 can send a third rotation signal to the motor so that the motor drives the appearance unit 105 and the solar panel 101 thereon to rotate. The third rotation signal can include a rotation direction, a rotation time, a rotation speed, and a value of the second preset time interval. In this embodiment, the second preset time interval is less than the first preset time interval, for example, 10ms, so that the solar panel 101 can gradually approach the maximum power generation position in a substantially step-by-step manner. Then, each time the second preset time interval passes, the control unit 103 records the voltage of the solar panel 101 after rotation, and stops when the voltage of the solar panel 101 approaches the voltage of the maximum power generation position. In other words, the control unit 103 does not need to record the power generation position in the third reset action S104, and only needs to determine whether the voltage of the solar panel 101 is close to the voltage of the maximum power generation position. For example, the control unit 103 may default to stopping the rotation of the solar panel 101 when the difference between the voltage value of the solar panel 101 and the voltage value at the maximum power generation position is within ±5%.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, the solar bird pest control system 1000 of the present invention can perform the second reset action S103 after the first reset action S102 to confirm whether the maximum power generation position is correct. Then, the third reset action S104 can be performed to adjust the solar panel 101 to the maximum power generation position at a smaller second time interval. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the solar bird pest control system 1000 of the present invention can selectively skip the first reset action S102 or the second reset action S103, or only perform the third reset action S104. Then, when determining the voltage at the maximum power generation position, the third reset action S104 can directly compare the voltage value of the previous maximum power generation position without performing the first reset action S102 and the second reset action S103.

[0044] Then, after the reset of the maximum power generation position is completed, the control unit 103 restores the connection between the solar panel 101 and the battery 104 and stores the generated power in the battery 104. In the solar bird pest control system 1000 of the present invention, if there is no reset action before, the voltage value of the maximum power generation position continues to be the previous value, but if it is a reset action performed in succession to other reset actions, the voltage of the maximum power generation position is reset before performing the reset action.

[0045] Thus, the solar bird pest control system 1000 of the present invention can track the changes in its setting environment by regularly resetting the voltage value of the maximum power generation position. For example, when the environment becomes dark due to the influence of the weather, season or climate, the solar bird pest control system 1000 can be reset appropriately. In addition, in order to prevent the birds to be controlled or driven away from becoming accustomed to the operation of the solar bird pest control system 1000 of the present invention, the action conditions in the above-mentioned pre-action or reset action can be random, such as: the number and interval time of performing the pre-action or reset action, the rotation direction (clockwise or counterclockwise) of the appearance unit 105 and the solar panel 101 thereon, the rotation time, the rotation speed, the first time interval, the second time interval, etc. The aforementioned "random" can be achieved by presetting a random number in the control unit 103 or other methods, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0046] Therefore, the solar bird pest prevention system 1000 of the present invention can achieve the effect of resetting the maximum power generation position by recording the time interval (for recording the power generation position) and the voltage value of the solar panel 101 at different time intervals without setting up sensors. In this way, the use of overall parts, the cost of equipment and the size of the overall device can be reduced, while achieving the effect of preventing or driving away birds, and preventing birds from becoming accustomed to the bird driving device or equipment that occurs at a fixed time or pattern, thereby reducing the effect of bird pest prevention.

[0047] The solar bird pest control system of the present invention includes an electric conversion unit (not shown), which is electrically connected to the battery 104 and the control unit 103, and is used to convert electrical energy into kinetic energy, light waves or sound waves to scare away birds. For example, the electric conversion unit can be a speaker for playing sound to scare away birds, or a light source for emitting light to scare away birds, or a mobile device, such as a swingable flagpole or propeller.

[0048] Figure 4 A schematic structural diagram of a solar bird pest control system 1000 provided in another embodiment of the present invention; Figure 5 for Figure 4 Side view of the Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the solar bird pest control system 1000 of the present invention includes a base 106 and an appearance unit 105, wherein the base 106 remains fixed. The appearance unit 105 includes a lower half 1051 and an upper half 1052; the lower half 1051 is fixed relative to the base 106, and the upper half 1052 can rotate relative to the base 106. The solar bird pest control system 1000 as a whole can be in the shape of a raptor, a scarecrow, a doll, etc. The lower half 1051 can include a body part, and the upper half 1052 can include a head. The solar panel 101 is arranged on the back of the upper half 1052; the control unit 103, the motor, and the battery are arranged inside the upper half 1052. Correspondingly, the front side is the opposite direction to the back side. The front side can be, for example, the side where the facial features and face of a raptor, a scarecrow, a doll, etc. are located, and the solar panel 101 can be arranged on the top of the back of the head of a raptor, a scarecrow, a doll, etc.

[0049] The lower part 1051 includes an extension part 1051a extending into the appearance unit 105, and a detection component 107 is disposed between the extension part 1051a and the upper part 1052 for detecting the angle and / or position of the upper part 1052 relative to the lower part 1051. In one embodiment, the detection component 107 includes a magnet 1071 fixed on one of the extension part 1051a and the upper part 1052, and a Hall element 1072 fixed on the other. One of the two can be directly fixed on the solar panel 101, or indirectly fixed on the solar panel 101 by being fixed on the control unit 103.

[0050] In the illustrated embodiment, the magnet 1071 is fixed on the extension portion 1051 a , and the Hall element 1072 is fixed on the control unit 103 .

[0051] When the Hall element 1072 detects the magnet 1071, the front faces of the upper half 1052 and the lower half 1051 are the same, and this state is used as a reference position. In the subsequent driving process, this reference position is used as the zero position of the driving rotation.

[0052] The present invention is not limited to this, and a light reflector and a receiver, a mechanical switch, etc. may also be used to detect the reference position. For example, in the case of using a light reflector and a receiver, the light reflector is set on one of the extension part 1061 and the appearance unit 105, and the receiver is set on the other. When the upper half 1052 and the lower half 1051 face the same front direction, the light reflector just reflects the light signal to the receiver, so that it is judged that it is in the reference position at this time. In the case of using a mechanical switch, a contact trigger switch can be used. When the front direction of the body part and the head is the same, the switch is turned on or off, so that it is judged that it is in the reference position at this time. The present invention can also use other detection components.

[0053] Since the position of the sun changes greatly from the evening of the previous day to the early morning of the next day, the optimal position of the solar panel 101 in the evening of the previous day may not be the optimal position of the next day. Therefore, it is necessary to return the solar panel 101 to the reference position before the power generation of the solar panel 101 decreases and the solar bird pest control system 100 fails to operate. The standard for failure to operate can be that the voltage of the battery is equal to a preset voltage, such as 2.35V. When installing the solar bird pest control system 100, its reference position can be a position where the front of the upper half 1052 and the lower half 1051 face the same direction and the solar panel 101 faces the direction of the rising sun in the morning. In this way, when the sun rises in the morning, the solar bird pest control system 100 can be driven normally, generate electricity efficiently, and prevent bird pests in the early morning.

[0054] Figure 6 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the execution steps of a solar bird pest control system 100 provided in another embodiment of the present invention. Figure 6 As shown, the present invention detects the voltage of the solar panel 101 to determine the state of the solar panel 101 and perform on / off control on it.

[0055] In step S201, after the driving sequence ends and after a first predetermined time has passed, the voltage value of the solar panel 101 is measured;

[0056] In step S202, the measured voltage value is compared with a predetermined first threshold value to determine whether the measured voltage value is less than the predetermined first threshold value; at the same time, the measured voltage value is compared with the voltage value during the driving sequence to determine whether the difference between the measured voltage value and the voltage during the driving sequence is greater than a predetermined second threshold value, that is, whether the measured voltage value is less than the voltage during the driving sequence and the difference is greater than the predetermined second threshold value; if both are true, proceed to step S203; otherwise, proceed to the normal sequence;

[0057] In step S203, after waiting for the second predetermined time, the measured voltage value is compared with the third threshold value to determine whether the measured voltage value is greater than the third threshold value; if yes, proceed to step S204; if no, proceed to the normal timing sequence;

[0058] In step S204 , the solar panel 101 is driven to rotate to a reference position, and the solar panel 101 enters a shutdown / sleep state.

[0059] In the above steps, the first predetermined time may be, for example, 3 seconds, the second predetermined time may be, for example, 5 seconds; the first threshold may be, for example, 0.5 V, the second threshold may be, for example, 2.5 V, and the third threshold may be, for example, 2.5 V. In step S203, if the solar panel is covered with a hand and a significantly lower voltage value is detected, and then the hand is removed from the solar panel and the voltage value increases within a certain period of time, then the shutdown / sleep state is detected.

[0060] Therefore, after the driving is finished, the solar panel 101 can be covered by hand for a few seconds to rotate it to the reference position and enter the off / sleep state.

When the solar panel 101 is in the off / sleep state, cover the solar panel 101 with your hand for a few seconds, then remove your hand from the solar panel, the voltage value will increase within a certain period of time, and the solar panel 101 will return to the normal on state.

[0062] like Figure 7 As shown, in step S301, the voltage value of the solar panel 101 is measured to determine whether the measured voltage value is less than a fourth threshold value; if yes, proceed to step S302; if no, repeat step S301;

[0063] In step S302, cover the solar panel with your hand, remove your hand from the solar panel after a third predetermined time, and measure the voltage value of the solar panel 101; determine whether the measured voltage value is greater than the fifth threshold; if yes, proceed to step S303 and enter the normal timing; if not, repeat step S302.

[0064] In step S303, the normal sequence is entered.

[0065] The fourth threshold may be equal to the first threshold; and the fifth threshold may be equal to the third threshold.

[0066] The above embodiment can open and close the solar panel 101 without using a switch, thereby improving the waterproof performance while reducing weight and cost.

[0067] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for those with ordinary knowledge in the technical field to which the present invention belongs, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
