Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power equipment protection technology, specifically to a device for preventing birds from nesting in equipment cabinets. Background Technology
[0002] In power systems, equipment cabinets are crucial electrical devices, and their normal operation is vital for the stability and security of power supply. However, birds often nest inside these cabinets, and the twigs, dry grass, and other materials they use can easily cause short circuits and equipment malfunctions, severely impacting their normal operation. When power distribution equipment is left outdoors for extended periods, bird droppings or large amounts of debris can easily accumulate on top, causing cracks in the upper cover and allowing rainwater to seep in. Long-term accumulation of bird droppings or nests can create pits and depressions above the equipment, where water can accumulate. Furthermore, bird droppings contain various substances, and the combined effect of these factors accelerates equipment aging, leading to water seepage on the top of outdoor power distribution equipment. For example, water seepage in outdoor transformers can cause significant damage.
[0003] In existing technologies, such as the patent publication CN114597840B entitled "A Device for Preventing Birds from Nesting in Power Distribution Equipment," the shape memory alloy sheet of this invention is attached to the surface of an arc-shaped cover at room temperature, and a heating device is attached to the inner layer of the arc-shaped cover; the shape memory alloy sheet is sheet-like and is placed on the arc-shaped cover, opening upwards when heated. This invention prevents birds from nesting or other foreign objects from accumulating on the equipment over a long period of time.
[0004] Existing bird-proofing measures, such as installing bird-repelling spikes, can only provide a certain degree of physical barrier. For birds that are adept at finding gaps and hiding spaces, their bird-proofing effect is limited. To address the above problems, a device is proposed to prevent birds from nesting in the device cabinet. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a device to prevent birds from nesting in the cabinet, thereby solving the problem that existing bird-proofing measures, such as installing bird-repelling spikes, can only provide a certain degree of physical obstruction and have limited effectiveness against birds that are adept at finding gaps and hiding spaces.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a device for preventing birds from nesting in a cabinet, comprising a top anti-nesting mechanism, a side anti-nesting mechanism provided on the outer side of the top anti-nesting mechanism, the top anti-nesting mechanism including a mounting plate, a bottom support frame slidably mounted on the mounting plate, a gear movably mounted on one end of the bottom support frame, a translation adjustment motor provided on the side of the bottom support frame, transverse cleaning rollers symmetrically arranged on the top of the bottom support frame, a plurality of cleaning brushes evenly distributed on the outer wall of the transverse cleaning rollers, a first cleaning motor provided on one end of each transverse cleaning roller, a transmission belt wound around the outer side of the first cleaning motor, and one end of the transmission belt connected to one end of another transverse cleaning roller.

Several bottom support rods are evenly distributed at the bottom of the track frame, and a side mounting frame is slidably connected to the outside of the track frame.
[0008] Preferably, a U-shaped frame is fixedly installed on the inner top of the side mounting frame, and a movable wheel is movably installed on the inner top of the U-shaped frame, with a movable motor provided at one end of the movable wheel.
[0009] Preferably, guide rollers are symmetrically distributed on the inner side of the U-shaped frame, and connectors are provided at both ends of the guide rollers, with the connectors symmetrically distributed on the inner side of the U-shaped frame.
[0010] Preferably, a vertical cleaning roller is provided on the side of the side mounting frame, and a support frame is provided on the top of the vertical cleaning roller.
[0011] Preferably, a second cleaning motor is provided at the bottom of the vertical cleaning roller, and the second cleaning motor is connected to the bottom of the side mounting frame.
[0012] Preferably, the mounting plate has sliding grooves on both sides, and the two ends of the bottom support frame are slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding grooves.
[0013] Preferably, a plurality of racks are evenly distributed on the inner bottom of a single sliding groove, and the racks are meshed with gears.
[0014] Preferably, side supports are symmetrically fixedly installed at both ends of the top of the bottom support frame, and both ends of the transverse cleaning roller are rotatably connected to the side supports.
[0015] Preferably, the bottom of the top surface anti-nesting mechanism is provided with a device cabinet, the device cabinet includes a cabinet body, and a cabinet door is movably installed on the front of the cabinet body.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. In this invention, an installation plate is mounted on the top of the cabinet, and a base support is slidably mounted on the installation plate. The base support has gears, and a translation adjustment motor drives the gears to rotate. This causes a connected rack to exert a counterforce on the gears, enabling the base support to move. This achieves translational operation. Horizontal cleaning rollers are symmetrically distributed on the base support, and a first cleaning motor drives a single horizontal cleaning roller to rotate. This, in conjunction with a transmission belt, drives another horizontal cleaning roller, achieving synchronous rotation. This facilitates the cleaning brushes distributed on the horizontal cleaning rollers to clean the top of the cabinet structure. Cleaning the top reduces the time birds spend on the cabinet, increasing the difficulty of nest building. When nests appear, the cleaning brushes can be rotated to clean them, ensuring the cleanliness of the cabinet and preventing residual nests from affecting the normal operation of the equipment.

The side mounting frame is movably installed on the track frame and further secured by a U-shaped frame. The movable wheel on the inner top of the U-shaped frame is in contact with the top of the track frame. A movable motor drives the movable wheel to rotate, thus facilitating the movement of the side mounting frame. During movement, guide rollers are in contact with both sides of the track frame, which helps to provide sliding side support and ensures precise and stable guidance during movement, thereby improving operational efficiency. The vertical cleaning roller is connected and installed at the bottom of the side mounting frame through a support frame. The bottom of the vertical cleaning roller is driven by the track frame, enabling the vertical cleaning roller to rotate. This facilitates the cleaning of the side of the device cabinet by coordinating the rotation of the vertical cleaning roller with the movement of the side mounting frame, thereby reducing nesting on the side and improving the overall performance.

[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] Example 1: As Figures 1-6 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a device for preventing birds from nesting in a cabinet, including a top anti-nesting mechanism 1, a side anti-nesting mechanism 3 on the outside of the top anti-nesting mechanism 1, the top anti-nesting mechanism 1 including a mounting plate 101, a bottom support frame 105 slidably mounted on the mounting plate 101, a gear 104 movably mounted on one end of the bottom support frame 105, a translation adjustment motor 106 on the side of the bottom support frame 105, transverse cleaning rollers 108 symmetrically arranged on the top of the bottom support frame 105, a plurality of cleaning brushes 109 evenly distributed on the outer wall of the transverse cleaning rollers 108, a first cleaning motor 111 at one end of a single transverse cleaning roller 108, a transmission belt 110 wound around the outside of the first cleaning motor 111, and one end of the transmission belt 110 connected to one end of another transverse cleaning roller 108.
[0022] In this embodiment, a mounting plate 101 is disposed on the top of the cabinet 201, and a base support frame 105 is slidably mounted on the mounting plate 101. A gear 104 is provided on the base support frame 105. A translation adjustment motor 106 drives the gear 104 to rotate, thereby causing the connected rack 103 to exert a counterforce on the gear 104, enabling the base support frame 105 to move. This achieves translational operation. Lateral cleaning rollers 108 are symmetrically distributed on the base support frame 105, and a first cleaning motor 111 drives each lateral cleaning roller. The 108 roller rotates, which in turn drives the transmission belt 110 to another transverse cleaning roller 108, achieving synchronous rotation. This facilitates the cleaning brushes 109 distributed on the transverse cleaning roller 108 to clean the top of the device cabinet structure. Cleaning the top helps reduce the time birds spend on the device cabinet, thus increasing the difficulty for birds to build nests. When nests appear, they can be cleaned by rotating the cleaning brushes 109, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the device cabinet and preventing residual nests from affecting the normal use of the equipment.
[0023] Example 2: Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the side-mounted anti-nesting mechanism 3 includes a track frame 301, which is located on the outside of the mounting plate 101. Several bottom support rods 302 are evenly distributed on the bottom of the track frame 301. A side mounting frame 303 is slidably connected to the outside of the track frame 301. A U-shaped frame 304 is fixedly installed on the top inner side of the side mounting frame 303. A movable wheel 305 is movably installed on the top inner side of the U-shaped frame 304. A movable motor 306 is provided at one end of the movable wheel 305. Guide rollers 307 are symmetrically distributed on the inner side of the U-shaped frame 304. Connectors are provided at both ends of the guide rollers 307. The connectors are symmetrically distributed on the inner side of the U-shaped frame 304. A vertical cleaning roller 309 is provided on the side of the side mounting frame 303. A support frame 308 is provided on the top of the vertical cleaning roller 309. A second cleaning motor 310 is provided at the bottom of the vertical cleaning roller 309. The second cleaning motor 310 is connected to the bottom of the side mounting frame 303.
[0024] In this embodiment, the track frame 301 and the bottom support rod 302 are used to provide support, which facilitates the provision of a track. The side mounting frame 303 is movably mounted on the track frame 301 and further secured by a U-shaped frame 304. The movable wheel 305 on the inner top of the U-shaped frame 304 is in contact with the top of the track frame 301. The movable wheel 305 is driven to rotate by the movable motor 306, which facilitates the movement of the side mounting frame 303. During the movement, the guide rollers 307 are in contact with both sides of the track frame 301, which helps to provide sliding side support and ensures smooth movement. Providing precise and stable guidance improves operational efficiency. The vertical cleaning roller 309 is connected and installed at the bottom of the support frame 308 and the side mounting frame 303. The bottom of the vertical cleaning roller 309 is driven by the track frame 301, enabling the vertical cleaning roller 309 to rotate. This rotation, combined with the movement of the side mounting frame 303, facilitates cleaning of the side of the cabinet, reducing nesting on the side and improving the overall performance.
[0025] Example 3: As Figures 1-4 As shown, sliding grooves 102 are provided on both sides of the mounting plate 101. The two ends of the bottom support frame 105 are slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding groove 102. Several racks 103 are evenly distributed on the bottom inner side of a single sliding groove 102. The racks 103 are meshed with the gears 104. Side support frames 107 are symmetrically fixedly installed at both ends of the top of the bottom support frame 105. The two ends of the transverse cleaning roller 108 are rotatably connected to the side support frames 107. The bottom of the top anti-nesting mechanism 1 is provided with a device cabinet 2. The device cabinet 2 includes a cabinet body 201. A cabinet door 202 is movably installed on the front of the cabinet body 201.
[0026] In this embodiment, the sliding groove 102 facilitates the connection of the two ends of the bottom support frame 105.

The transmission belt 110 drives another transverse cleaning roller 108, achieving synchronous rotation. This facilitates the cleaning brushes 109 distributed on the transverse cleaning roller 108 to clean the top of the device cabinet structure. Cleaning the top reduces the time birds spend on the device cabinet, thus increasing the difficulty for birds to build nests. When nests appear, they can be cleaned by rotating the cleaning brushes 109, ensuring the cleanliness of the device cabinet and preventing residual nests from affecting the normal operation of the equipment. The track frame 301, in conjunction with the bottom support rod 302, provides support, facilitating the movable installation of the side mounting frame 303. Mounted on the track frame 301, it is further secured by a U-shaped frame 304. The movable wheel 305 on the inner top of the U-shaped frame 304 is in contact with the top of the track frame 301. The movable wheel 305 is driven to rotate by the movable motor 306, facilitating the movement of the side-mounted frame 303. During movement, guide rollers 307 are in contact with both sides of the track frame 301, providing sliding side support and ensuring precise and stable guidance, thus improving operational efficiency. The vertical sweeping roller 309 is connected and installed via a support frame 308 at the bottom of the side-mounted frame 303. The vertical cleaning roller 309 is driven by a track frame 301 at the bottom, enabling it to rotate. This rotation, combined with the movement of the side mounting frame 303, facilitates cleaning of the sides of the cabinet, reducing nesting and improving usability. The side support frame 107 provides stable support for the horizontal cleaning roller 108, ensuring overall stability. The cabinet door 202, located on the front of the cabinet 201, provides protection against birds entering and nesting inside.
