Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of bird deterrence devices, specifically to a novel all-around wind-powered bird deterrent. Background Technology
[0002] Birds are frequently seen on power equipment in cities or on overhead power lines in the countryside (such as transmission line towers and substations). However, the activities of birds, such as perching, taking off, landing, defecating, and nesting on the crossarms of power towers, can cause serious power short-circuit accidents. For example, bird droppings can contaminate insulators, reducing their insulation strength and easily causing insulator flashover; conductive materials such as iron wire contained in bird nests can easily cause short circuits and tripping of the line when the nests are scattered during rainy, snowy, or windy seasons; when birds take off and defecate near the insulator hanging points, the droppings can short-circuit the conductors and crossarms, also causing the line to trip.
[0003] Traditional methods for repelling birds from power facilities mainly involve setting up bird nets, but these can harm the birds. Current technology primarily uses electric wind turbines for bird control. While wind turbine bird deterrents are a gentler method, they require additional power or energy supply and present challenges in installation and maintenance. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a novel omnidirectional wind-powered bird deterrent that utilizes wind power to drive the bird-deterring blades to rotate 360°, generating aerodynamics and sound to disrupt birds' flight paths and effectively drive away birds near power facilities. Using wind power as the driving force eliminates the need for an additional power source, reducing installation and maintenance costs while avoiding direct harm to birds.
[0005] This application is achieved through the following technical solution, specifically:
[0006] A novel omnidirectional wind-powered bird deterrent includes: a base bracket and a bird deterrent mechanism mounted on the upper part of the base bracket; the bird deterrent mechanism includes a connector and a blade assembly mounted on the top of the base bracket; the connector is provided with a horizontal through hole, and the blade assembly includes a horizontal support rod fixedly connected to the connector through the through hole, and two sets of bird deterrent blades rotatably connected to the horizontal support rod.
[0007] In this design, bird-repelling blades are rotatably connected to a horizontal support rod, allowing the blades to rotate 360° vertically around the rod under wind power. This generates aerodynamics and sound, disrupting birds' flight paths and effectively deterring birds near power facilities. Utilizing wind power eliminates the need for an additional power source, reducing installation and maintenance costs while avoiding direct harm to birds.
[0008] As an improvement to the bird-repelling mechanism in this application, the bird-repelling mechanism further includes: a top cap installed on the upper end of the connector, wherein the upper and lower ends of the connector are respectively connected to the top cap and the base bracket via bearings.
[0009] In this solution, by connecting the connector with a bearing, the connector can drive the bird deterrent assembly to rotate 360° horizontally around the base bracket under the action of wind, increasing the rotation angle and bird deterrent range of the bird deterrent blades, thereby making more effective use of wind power to deter birds.
[0010] As an improvement to the bird-repelling blade in this application, the bird-repelling blade includes a connecting sleeve and a plurality of rectangular blades evenly arranged along the circumference of the connecting sleeve, and the bird-repelling blade is sleeved on the horizontal support rod through the connecting sleeve.
[0011] Furthermore, reflective strips are affixed to the surface of the rectangular blade.
[0012] Furthermore, the edges of the rectangular blade are serrated.
[0013] As an improvement to the horizontal support rod in this application, the two ends of the horizontal support rod are embedded with bearings and fixed by shaft clips.
[0014] As an improvement to the base bracket in this application, the base bracket includes: a U-shaped clamp and a vertical support rod fixedly connected to the upper end of the U-shaped clamp, and the connector is installed on the top of the vertical support rod.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this application are as follows:
[0016] 1. The proposed solution involves rotatably connecting bird-repelling blades to a horizontal support rod, allowing the blades to rotate 360° vertically around the rod under wind power. This generates aerodynamics and sound, thereby disrupting birds' flight paths and effectively deterring birds near power facilities. Utilizing wind power eliminates the need for an additional power source, reducing installation and maintenance costs while avoiding direct harm to birds.
[0017] 2. The solution of this application uses bearings to connect the connecting parts, so that the connecting parts can drive the bird deterrent component to rotate 360° horizontally around the base bracket under the action of wind, increasing the rotation angle and bird deterrent range of the bird deterrent blades, thereby using wind power to deter birds in all directions.

[0023] The following will be combined with the appendix Figures 1-2 The embodiments of the technical solution of this application are described in detail below. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of this application, and are therefore merely examples and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this application. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0024] In view of the problems existing in the background technology or products, Figure 1 This paper presents a schematic diagram of the structure of a novel omnidirectional wind-powered bird deterrent device according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 A partial structural schematic diagram of a novel omnidirectional wind-powered bird deterrent device according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figures 1-2 As shown in the figure, this application provides a novel omnidirectional wind-powered bird deterrent device, including: a base bracket 1 and a bird deterrent mechanism 2 installed on the upper part of the base bracket 1; the bird deterrent mechanism 2 includes a connector 21 and a blade assembly 22 installed on the top of the base bracket 1; the connector 21 is provided with a horizontal through hole, and the blade assembly 22 includes a horizontal support rod 221 fixedly connected to the connector 21 through the through hole, and two sets of bird deterrent blades 222 rotatably connected to the horizontal support rod 221.
[0025] Specifically, the connector 21 is a cylinder, with its lower end fixedly connected to the base bracket 1. A horizontal through hole is provided in the middle of the connector 21, the diameter of which corresponds to the diameter of the horizontal support rod 221, ensuring that the horizontal support rod 221 can be flexibly inserted and fixed. The horizontal support rod 221 can be fixed to the through hole by inserting a pin. Two sets of bird-repelling blades 222 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the horizontal support rod 221 and connected to the horizontal support rod 221 by a rotating connection, allowing the bird-repelling blades 222 to rotate freely 360 degrees around the horizontal support rod 221 in the vertical plane.
[0026] In order to achieve the rotational connection of the bird-repelling blade 222, in one implementation, the bird-repelling blade 222 includes a connecting sleeve 223 and a plurality of rectangular blades 224 evenly arranged around the connecting sleeve 223, and the bird-repelling blade 222 is sleeved on the horizontal support rod 221 through the connecting sleeve 223.
[0027] Specifically, the diameter of the connecting sleeve 223 is slightly larger than the diameter of the horizontal support rod 221, so that the bird-repelling blade 222 can rotate in the vertical plane with the horizontal support rod 221 as the axis of rotation under wind power. Optionally, the number of rectangular blades 224 is preferably three, and the angle between each rectangular blade 224 is 120°.
[0028] Preferably, a reflective strip 225 is attached to the surface of the rectangular blade 224.
[0029] Specifically, birds are mostly afraid of flashing lights and fast-moving objects. The bird-repelling blades 222 rotate under wind power, causing the reflective strips 225 to flash continuously. The resulting changes in light strongly stimulate the birds' vision, deterring them from approaching and thus achieving the purpose of bird deterrence. The width and spacing of the reflective strips 225 should be designed according to the number and shape of the rectangular blades 224; this application does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0030] Preferably, the edges of the rectangular blade 224 are serrated. The purpose of the serrated edges is to increase the surface area of the rectangular blade 224, so that the rectangular blade 224 produces a stronger disturbance effect when it swings in the wind, and the serrated edges also generate stronger noise in the wind. The changes in sound will also disturb birds, further enhancing the bird-repelling effect. The sharpness of the serrated edges should be controlled to maximize the bird-repelling effect without harming the birds.
[0031] Preferably, the horizontal support rod 221, connector 21, and blade assembly 22 are all made of ABS plastic. ABS plastic has the advantages of low density and light weight, and also has good corrosion resistance, aging resistance, weather resistance, and electrical insulation, which can effectively improve the durability of the new all-round wind-powered bird deterrent device.
[0032] Continue reading Figure 2 In one implementation, the bird deterrent mechanism 2 further includes a top cap 23 installed on the upper end of the connector 21, wherein the upper and lower ends of the connector 21 are respectively connected to the top cap 23 and the base bracket 1 via bearings.
[0033] Specifically, the upper and lower ends of the connector 21 are respectively provided with holes or grooves for installing bearings. The bearings are preferably rolling bearings, such as ball bearings or roller bearings, to ensure that the connector 21 can rotate smoothly and steadily in the horizontal direction under the action of wind.
[0034] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: When wind force acts on the bird deterrent assembly, the connector 21, connected to the top cap 23 and the base bracket 1 via bearings, can rotate 360° horizontally around the base bracket 1. The rotating bird deterrent blades 222 generate airflow, thereby driving away birds. Since both the upper and lower ends of the connector 21 are connected by bearings, the connector 21 can rotate freely, thereby enabling the horizontal support rod 221 and the bird deterrent blades 222 to rotate within a larger range, increasing the bird deterrent range.
[0035] In one implementation, bearings are embedded at both ends of the horizontal support rod 221 and fixed by shaft clips. Specifically, the embedding of the bearings and the fixing of the shaft clips can effectively prevent the bird deterrent blades 222 from shifting or falling off during use, ensuring the normal operation of the bird deterrent device.
[0036] In one implementation, the base bracket 1 includes a U-shaped clamp 11 and a vertical support rod 12 fixedly connected to the upper end of the U-shaped clamp 11, and the connector 21 is installed on the top of the vertical support rod 12.
[0037] Specifically, the U-shaped clamp 11 is provided with positioning screw holes. When the angle steel of the power facility is clamped by the U-shaped clamp 11, bolts are inserted into the positioning screw holes to fix the connecting seat, thereby realizing the installation of the new omnidirectional wind-powered bird deterrent. The base bracket 1 of this embodiment does not require complicated installation equipment and technology, and can quickly realize the installation and use of the new omnidirectional wind-powered bird deterrent, improving installation efficiency.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein.
