Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of bird monitoring and identification, and specifically to a bird identification device with an all-round monitoring camera. Background Art
[0002] The bird monitoring and identification device can monitor bird organisms in a certain area, and by monitoring the species of birds and the number of birds of each species that appear per unit time, it can be understood whether the ecosystem in this area is in a balanced state. The bird monitoring and identification device is a monitoring device based on the image information acquisition module in the prior art, and its main function is to collect image and video data and convert it into digital signals. The image acquisition module includes hardware devices such as cameras and light sources, as well as digital signal processing devices such as acquisition cards and interface cards. Among them, the camera is a key component in the image acquisition module, which is used to capture image and video information. The image acquisition module in the bird monitoring and identification device transmits the collected digital information to the receiving device, so that the staff can obtain the bird information within the monitoring time range. The monitoring of birds is divided into diurnal birds and nocturnal birds. Generally, in open outdoor areas, they are diurnal birds, that is, they are active during the day and rest at night, while nocturnal birds are generally distributed in mountain forests and are active at night.
[0003] Bird monitoring and identification devices are all installed and used at high altitudes outdoors. For example, as described in the prior art documents CN117197414A (a bird automatic identification device) and CN113807338B (a bird identification device with a 360-degree rotating camera), during the use of the bird monitoring and identification device in freezing rain or rainy and snowy weather, the rotating part and the lens part of the camera are easily frozen, and a layer of ice or snow will cover its surface. Even after the rain and snow stop and the sun comes out, the covered ice layer or snow will not melt quickly.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0030] Embodiment 1: Please refer to Figures 1 - 8, A bird recognition device for an all-round monitoring camera in the illustration, comprising: a hollow frame 1 and an image acquisition module 2 fixed inside the hollow frame 1. A number of cameras 3 are evenly distributed at equal intervals in a circle on the outer wall of the hollow frame 1. The image acquisition module 2 collects outdoor bird information through the cameras 3, and transmits the collected information to a receiving module on the ground through a digital signal transmission module installed inside the hollow frame 1. A connecting component is provided between each camera 3 and the hollow frame 1. The top and bottom of the hollow frame 1 are respectively fixed with a top plate 5 and a bottom plate 6. An annular transparent cover 7 is provided between the top plate 5 and the bottom plate 6. The transparent cover 7 covers the outside of a number of cameras 3. Upper and lower annular plates 8 and 9 are respectively fixed on the upper and lower end faces of the transparent cover 7. A photovoltaic panel assembly is fixedly installed on the top of the top plate 5. An inverter and an energy storage module are provided inside the hollow frame 1, which can convert the solar energy absorbed by the photovoltaic panel assembly into electrical energy and store it in the energy storage module for use by the image acquisition module 2 and the digital signal transmission module. Optionally, a power line and a digital signal transmission line are assembled in the strut at the bottom of the bottom plate 6 in a wired connection mode;
[0031] A lens swing unit for simultaneously offsetting the orientations of the lenses of a number of cameras 3, thereby expanding the monitoring range of each camera 3;
[0032] A knocking unit for cleaning the ice layer and snow layer covering the surface of the transparent cover 7 to prevent the lenses of the cameras 3 from being blocked;
[0033] The knocking unit can operate simultaneously during the operation of the lens swing unit.
[0034] A number of cameras 3 are evenly distributed at equal intervals in a circle on the outside of the hollow frame 1. The connecting component includes a limit sphere 11 fixed at one end of each camera 3 close to the hollow frame 1. A mounting seat cylinder 4 is slidably sleeved on the outer surface of the limit sphere 11. The limit sphere 11 is located at the end of the camera 3 far from the lens. One end of the mounting seat cylinder 4 far from the limit sphere 11 is fixed to the hollow frame 1. Through the assembly of the limit sphere 11 and the mounting seat cylinder 4, the camera 3 can be limited, allowing the camera 3 to swing around the center of the limit sphere 11.
[0035] The lens swing unit includes arc-shaped tooth blocks 17 distributed below each camera 3. A fixed disk 14 is slidably and fittingly arranged below the arc-shaped tooth blocks 17, and the fixed disk 14 is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the bottom plate 6. A limit arc groove 15 is opened in the interior of the fixed disk 14 corresponding to the lower part of each arc-shaped tooth block 17. The centers of the arc-shaped tooth block 17, the limit arc groove 15, and the limit sphere 11 are on a vertical axis. At least two limit rods 19 are fixedly arranged inside each arc-shaped tooth block 17, and the limit rods 19 are slidably fitted inside the limit arc groove 15. A connecting block 18 is fixedly arranged at the top of the arc-shaped tooth block 17, and the other end of the connecting block 18 is rotatably arranged at the bottom of the camera 3. A driving component is also arranged between the fixed disk 14 and the hollow frame 1. Through the sliding fit of the limit rod 19 and the limit arc groove 15, under the action of the driving component, the arc-shaped tooth block 17 can be driven to reciprocally move the limit rod 19 inside the limit arc groove 15. Then, in cooperation with the sliding fit of the limit sphere 11 and the mounting seat cylinder 4, the lens of the camera 3 can be offset left and right reciprocally.
[0036] The driving component includes a motor 12 fixed inside the hollow frame 1, and the motor 12 is located below the image acquisition module 2. The output end of the motor 12 faces downward. The output end of the motor 12 slidably penetrates the hollow frame 1, and a toothed disk 13 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the output end of the motor 12. The toothed disk 13 is located above the fixed disk 14. A transmission gear 16 is arranged between each arc-shaped tooth block 17 and the toothed disk 13, and the transmission gear 16 is rotationally assembled with the fixed disk 14. The transmission gear 16 is simultaneously meshed with the arc-shaped tooth block 17 and the toothed disk 13. That is, when the motor 12 drives the toothed disk 13 to reciprocally rotate a small angle, through the action of the transmission gear 16, the arc-shaped tooth block 17 can be offset, and the lenses of several cameras 3 can be deflected simultaneously.
[0037] The transparent cover 7 is made of a hard transparent material. Between the inner ring upper end of the upper annular plate 8 and the inner wall of the top plate 5, and between the inner ring lower end of the lower annular plate 9 and the inner wall of the bottom plate 6, two groups of first springs 10 are arranged. The number of each group of first springs 10 is several, and they are evenly distributed in a circumferential manner. Each first spring 10 is correspondingly fixed between the bottom plate 6 and the lower annular plate 9, and between the upper annular plate 8 and the top plate 5. At the same time, the lower end surface of the top plate 5 is slidably fitted with the upper annular plate 8, and the lower end surface of the lower annular plate 9 is slidably fitted with the bottom plate 6. That is, through the action of the two groups of first springs 10, the transparent cover 7, the upper annular plate 8, and the lower annular plate 9 are elastically assembled between the top plate 5 and the bottom plate 6. Through the sliding fit of the top plate 5 and the upper annular plate 8, and the sliding fit of the lower annular plate 9 and the bottom plate 6, it can also prevent external impurities from entering the space between the top plate 5, the bottom plate 6, and the transparent cover 7 through the gap.
[0038] The knocking and vibrating unit includes a bracket 20 distributed between two adjacent cameras 3. The bottom of the bracket 20 is fixed to the fixed disk 14. A straight cylinder 21 is rotationally assembled inside the bracket 20. A sliding disk 22 is slidably arranged inside the straight cylinder 21. One end of the sliding disk 22 close to the transparent cover 7 is fixedly provided with a first push rod 23. The exposed end of the first push rod 23 is also fixedly provided with a striking plate 28 for knocking on the transparent cover 7. A second push rod 24 is also slidably assembled inside the bracket 20. The second push rod 24 and one end of the first push rod 23 close to the striking plate 28 are fixed together through a fixing block 25. The second push rod 24 is distributed outside the straight cylinder 21. One end of the sliding disk 22 close to the hollow frame 1 is fixedly provided with a second spring 26. The other end of the second spring 26 is fixedly provided with a tray 27 slidably assembled inside the straight cylinder 21. A sliding component is arranged between the straight cylinder 21 and the sliding disk 22. A rotating component is arranged between the toothed disk 13 and the straight cylinder 21. The reciprocating rotation of the toothed disk 13 can drive the straight cylinder 21 to rotate inside the bracket 20 under the action of the rotating component. At the same time, under the action of the sliding component, the rotation of the straight cylinder 21 can make the sliding disk 22 slowly move towards the hollow frame 1 and then quickly move towards the transparent cover 7, so that the striking plate 28 knocks on the surface of the transparent cover 7 under the elastic push of the second spring 26.
[0039] The rotating component includes a rotating shaft 29 rotationally assembled outside the hollow frame 1. The axis of the rotating shaft 29 is perpendicular to and intersects with the axis of the straight cylinder 21. A movable ratchet wheel 31 is fixedly sleeved at the bottom of the rotating shaft 29. An arc-shaped ratchet plate 32 is fixedly provided on the upper end surface of the toothed disk 13. The arc-shaped ratchet plate 32 and the toothed disk 13 are concentrically arranged. The arc-shaped ratchet plate 32 is movably engaged with the movable ratchet wheel 31. One end of the straight cylinder 21 close to the hollow frame 1 and the top of the rotating shaft 29 are both fixedly provided with bevel gears 30. The two bevel gears 30 are meshed with each other. Each time the toothed disk 13 drives the arc-shaped ratchet plate 32 to make a reciprocating rotational movement once, the ratchet teeth of the arc-shaped ratchet plate 32 can make the movable ratchet wheel 31 rotate and move by a certain angle. Under the action of the two meshed bevel gears 30, the rotating shaft 29 drives the straight cylinder 21 to rotate inside the bracket 20.
[0040] The sliding member includes at least two groups of circumferentially equidistantly distributed transverse groove portions 34, straight groove portions 35, and inclined groove portions 36 formed on the inner wall of the straight cylinder 21. The transverse groove portions 34 are distributed on one side of the straight cylinder 21 close to the transparent cover 7. The transverse groove portions 34 are parallel to the axis of the straight cylinder 21. One end of the transverse groove portion 34 is vertically distributed and communicatively docked with the straight groove portion 35. One end of the straight groove portion 35 close to the hollow frame 1 is communicatively docked with the inclined groove portion 36, and the other end of the inclined groove portion 36 is communicatively docked with the end of an adjacent transverse groove portion 34. At least two circumferentially equidistantly distributed limit posts 33 are fixedly provided on the outer wall of the sliding disc 22, and the limit posts 33 are movably assembled with the transverse groove portions 34, straight groove portions 35, and inclined groove portions 36. The widths of the transverse groove portions 34, straight groove portions 35, and inclined groove portions 36 are the same and are greater than the outer diameter of the limit posts 33. That is, the two ends of the transverse groove portion 34 are respectively connected to the straight groove portion 35 and the inclined groove portion 36, and the two ends of the inclined groove portion 36 are respectively connected to the straight groove portion 35 of the previous group and the transverse groove portion 34 of the next group, thus forming an interconnected circulation groove. When the sliding disc 22 cannot rotate and the straight cylinder 21 rotates itself, the sliding disc 22 can be displaced horizontally.
[0041] The striking plate 28 is in a strip or block shape and contacts the transparent cover 7. The shape of the striking plate 28 can be selectively adjusted and replaced according to the comparison of the implementation effects.
[0042] Embodiment 2: Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , this embodiment is a further description of the above embodiment. The transparent cover 7 is made of a transparent plastic material with elastic deformation ability, and the upper annular plate 8 and the lower annular plate 9 are respectively fixed to the top plate 5 and the bottom plate 6. That is, the transparent cover 7 is fixed between the top plate 5 and the bottom plate 6 through the upper annular plate 8 and the lower annular plate 9, so as to form a closed cavity inside the top plate 5, the bottom plate 6, and the transparent cover 7. When the transparent cover 7 is struck, its body will undergo elastic deformation, so that the snow or ice covering the transparent cover 7 will crack until it falls off.
[0043] Working principle: The monitoring and recognition device in this solution is mainly aimed at diurnal birds. Diurnal birds come out to move during the day, that is, the movement and species of birds are monitored during the day. Therefore, the monitoring and recognition device of this application only needs to be started during the day and does not need to be started at night. When the monitoring device is running, several cameras 3 can capture images of the outdoors through the transparent housing 7, and the image acquisition module 2 can extract the information of the birds in the images and transmit it. In freezing rain weather or heavy snow weather in winter, especially at night when the temperature is lower, the attachment of freezing rain will form an ice layer, and the attachment of snow will form a snow layer. Both the ice layer and the snow layer will affect the shooting of the camera 3. Therefore, when the motor 12 is running, it can not only make several cameras 3 swing back and forth for adjustment, but also, under the engagement of the arc-shaped ratchet plate 32 and the movable ratchet 31, make the rotating shaft 29 drive the straight cylinder 21 to rotate through two meshing bevel gears 30, so as to attach Figure 7 With reference to Figure 7 , since the sliding disk 22 cannot rotate, the limit post 33 on the outer surface of the sliding disk 22 is movably embedded in the transverse groove portion 34. When the straight cylinder 21 rotates counterclockwise, the limit post 33 can slide from the inside of the transverse groove portion 34 to the inside of the inclined groove portion 36. Under the continuous rotation of the straight cylinder 21, the sliding disk 22 gradually moves towards the hollow frame 1 and compresses the second spring 26 until the limit post 33 moves to the intersection of the inclined groove portion 36 and the straight groove portion 35. At this time, under the action of the second spring 26 in the compressed state and the guiding of the straight groove portion 35 on the limit post 33, the sliding disk 22 can be quickly reset, that is, the striking plate 28 at the end of the first push rod 23 can strike the surface of the transparent housing 7. Through the vibration conduction of the knocking, the ice layer or snow layer covering the surface of the transparent housing 7 can be broken, and with multiple intermittent knocks, the ice layer or snow layer adhered to the surface of the transparent housing 7 can fall off, so as to ensure that the camera 3 can effectively identify and monitor the birds in the monitoring area even in snowy weather.
[0044] In this solution, due to the intermittent knocking of the striking plate 28 on the transparent housing 7, the sound generated can also prevent birds from building nests on the top of the monitoring and recognition device, and avoid the accumulation of nest materials from blocking the lens of the camera 3.
[0045] It should be noted that a rotary damper commonly used in the prior art is provided between the straight cylinder 21 and the bracket 20, that is, the straight cylinder 21 will be subject to certain resistance when rotating inside the bracket 20, mainly to prevent the straight cylinder 21 from rotating randomly inside the bracket 20.
[0046] It should be noted that in this text, relational terms such as first and second are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the term "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article or apparatus comprising a series of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article or apparatus.
[0047] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
