[0032] Please refer to the following first. Figure 1 This utility model provides a birdhouse 10 for protecting the environment and promoting regional ecological balance. The birdhouse 10 is installed in the wild to provide a place for wild birds to breed and live. Natural light can shine into the interior of the birdhouse 10 to simulate the natural environment and provide a good living and breeding environment for wild birds.
[0033] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The birdhouse 10 includes a main body 100, and inside the main body 100 is a living and breeding area 110, in which birds can live and breed their offspring.
[0034] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The main body 100 includes a roof 120 and a frame 130, with the roof 120 positioned above the frame 130 along the height direction of the birdhouse 10.
[0035] The roof 120 is at least partially a light-transmitting element 121 that automatically adjusts the brightness of the main body 100 according to the light intensity, and light can shine into the breeding area 110 through the light-transmitting element 121. The roof 120 is set at an angle to the breeding area 110, which can be adapted to the angle of sunlight, and sunlight can directly shine into the frame 130 from the roof 120.
[0036] In summary, in this embodiment, the birdhouse 10 includes a main body 100, inside which a breeding and living area 110 is provided. The main body 100 includes a roof 120, at least part of which is a light-transmitting element 121 that can automatically adjust the brightness inside the main body 100 according to the light intensity. Light can shine into the breeding and living area 110 through the light-transmitting element 121. The light-transmitting element 121 can automatically adjust the brightness inside the birdhouse 10 according to the intensity of natural light. When the light is strong during the day, the light-transmitting ability of the light-transmitting element 121 is weak, and when the light is weak at night, the light-transmitting ability of the light-transmitting element 121 is strong, thus naturally adjusting the brightness inside the birdhouse 10 to imitate the natural environment.
[0037] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 It should be noted that the entire roof 120 is made up of light-transmitting components 121. The roof 120 can automatically adjust the brightness within the frame 130 according to the light intensity, so that the light-transmitting component 121 has weak light transmission when the daytime light is strong and weak light transmission when the nighttime light is weak.
[0038] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the light-transmitting element 121 is an electronically controlled dimming glass.
[0039] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the light-transmitting element 121 is made of a photochromic material.
[0040] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the light-transmitting element 121 is made of a thermochromic material.
[0041] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 It should be noted that in this embodiment, the light-transmitting element 121 is a plate-shaped light-transmitting panel. The plate-shaped light-transmitting element 121 is installed on the frame 130 to form the aforementioned roof 120, which is convenient to install. It is understood that the light-transmitting element 121 can also be set in other shapes, such as arc shape. Any solution in which the light-transmitting element 121 can automatically adjust the brightness within the main body 100 according to the light intensity should be protected.
[0042] It should be noted that the light transmittance of the light-transmitting element 121 is inversely proportional to the light intensity. Example 2
[0043] refer to Figure 3 The birdhouse 10 in this embodiment has a basically the same structure as the birdhouse 10 in Embodiment 1, except that the roof 120 has a light-transmitting hole 122, and the roof 120 includes a light-transmitting element 121, which blocks the light-transmitting hole 122. The light-transmitting element 121 can automatically adjust the brightness inside the main body 100 according to the intensity of natural light. When the light is strong during the day, the light-transmitting ability of the light-transmitting element 121 is weak, and when the light is weak at night, the light-transmitting ability of the light-transmitting element 121 is strong, thus naturally adjusting the brightness inside the birdhouse 10 to imitate the natural environment.
[0044] refer to Figure 4 The roof 120 is provided with a sealing groove 123, which is arranged circumferentially around the light-transmitting hole 122 and communicates with it. A light-transmitting element 121 is accommodated within the sealing groove 123. The height of the sealing groove 123 is the same as the thickness of the light-transmitting element 121, and the shape of the sealing groove 123 matches the shape of the light-transmitting element 121. This ensures that when the light-transmitting element 121 is installed in the sealing groove 123, it is flush with the outer surface of the main body 100, increasing the structural compactness and aesthetics of the birdhouse 10. It is understood that the sealing groove 123 can also be omitted; any solution that allows the light-transmitting element 121 to be installed in the light-transmitting hole 122 should be protected.
[0045] It should be noted that glue needs to be injected into the sealing groove 123 to stick and fix the light-transmitting component 121. The light-transmitting component 121 is stuck on the main body 100, which can effectively prevent the light-transmitting component 121 from detaching from the main body 100.
[0046] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the light-transmitting element 121 can also be configured to be snapped into the sealing groove 123, so that the light-transmitting element 121 is fixed on the main body 100.
[0047] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 It should be noted that in this embodiment, both the light-transmitting hole 122 and the sealing groove 123 are set as squares, and the side length of the sealing groove 123 is greater than the side length of the light-transmitting hole 122.
[0048] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 It should be noted that the roof 120 includes a first roof 124 and a second roof 125, which are arranged at an angle. One of the first roof 124 and the second roof 125 is provided with the aforementioned light-transmitting hole 122, for example... Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the light-transmitting hole 122 is provided on the second roof 125, and correspondingly, the number of light-transmitting elements 121 is set to one, and the light-transmitting element 121 blocks the light-transmitting hole 122 of the second roof 125. Example 3
[0049] refer to Figure 5 The birdhouse 10 in this embodiment has a basically the same structure as the birdhouse 10 in Embodiment 2, except that both the first roof 124 and the second roof 125 are provided with the aforementioned light-transmitting holes 122, and the number of light-transmitting elements 121 is set to two, with each of the two light-transmitting elements 121 installed on a corresponding light-transmitting hole 122. Because the angle of sunlight varies at different times, by providing light-transmitting holes 122 in both the first roof 124 and the second roof 125, sunlight can illuminate the breeding and living area 110 from different light-transmitting holes 122 at different times, which is more similar to the natural nesting situation of wild birds. It is understood that the number of light-transmitting holes 122 could also be set to only one; any scheme where the roof 120 is provided with light-transmitting holes 122 should be protected. Example 4
[0050] refer to Figure 6 The birdhouse 10 in this embodiment has a basically the same structure as the birdhouse 10 in Embodiment 3, except that the first roof 124 is equipped with a solar panel 126, and the second roof 125 is provided with a light-transmitting hole 122. The birdhouse 10 also includes a camera, which is installed inside the frame 130. The camera is used to record and observe the daily life and breeding of birds, allowing bird lovers and animal conservationists to clearly understand the breeding process. The solar panel 126 provides power to the camera. The light-transmitting element 121 is installed on the light-transmitting hole 122 of the second roof 125. It should be noted that the positions of the solar panel 126 and the light-transmitting hole 122 can be reversed. In this case, the solar panel 126 is located on the second roof 125, and the light-transmitting hole 122 is located on the first roof 124. It is understood that the solar panel 126 can also be omitted; any design where the roof 120 is provided with a light-transmitting hole 122 should be protected.
[0051] Although the present invention has been described with reference to several typical embodiments, it should be understood that the terminology used is descriptive and exemplary, and not restrictive. Since the present invention can be embodied in many forms without departing from the spirit or essence of the invention, it should be understood that the above embodiments are not limited to any of the foregoing details, but should be interpreted broadly within the spirit and scope defined by the appended claims. Therefore, all variations and modifications falling within the scope of the claims or their equivalents should be covered by the appended claims.
