Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power system technology, and in particular to an intelligent bird deterrent device for insulators. Background Technology
[0002] Insulators are widely used in high-voltage transmission lines due to their lightweight nature, excellent pollution resistance, and high mechanical strength. However, frequent pecking by birds can easily damage insulators, severely affecting their electrical performance and durability, thus posing safety hazards to transmission lines and impacting operational stability.
[0003] To effectively address this issue, bird deterrents are typically deployed at the locations where insulators are installed. However, most bird deterrents currently on the market have significant drawbacks, such as their large size leading to installation difficulties, excessive power consumption resulting in energy waste, and high costs increasing maintenance burdens. In contrast, sound-based bird deterrents have the advantages of being small and inexpensive, and have been attempted for use. However, because their periodic sound interference patterns are relatively simple, birds can easily adapt, ultimately leading to a significant reduction in their bird-repelling effectiveness. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent bird deterrent device for insulators, which can improve the bird deterrent effect and reduce deployment and maintenance costs.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the solution of this utility model is: an intelligent bird deterrent device for insulators, comprising: The power module is electrically connected to the main control module and is used to supply power to the main control module; The vibration detection module is electrically connected to the main control module and is used to detect the vibration signals generated when birds peck at the insulators. The bird deterrent module includes a sound-generating unit and a light-emitting unit. The main control module is electrically connected to the bird deterrent module and is used to drive the sound-generating unit and the light-emitting unit to generate sounds of different frequencies and light with varying rhythms according to the vibration signal to drive away birds.
[0006] In a preferred embodiment, the vibration detection module is a vibration sensor.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, a humidity sensor is also included, which is electrically connected to the main control module and is used to detect ambient humidity in real time.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, a wind sensor is also included, which is electrically connected to the main control module and is used to detect ambient wind force in real time.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the power module includes a solar panel and a lithium battery, with the lithium battery electrically connected to both the solar panel and the main control module.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the solar panel is an epoxy resin polycrystalline solar panel.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the light-emitting unit is an LED lamp.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the bird deterrent device is housed inside the housing, which is then attached to the grounding terminal of the insulator by adhesive bonding.
[0015] After adopting the above solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This invention uses a vibration detection module to detect the vibration signal generated when birds peck at insulators. This vibration signal is transmitted to the main control module, which then drives the sound-generating unit and the light-emitting unit to generate sounds of different frequencies and rhythmically changing lights to scare away birds. This effectively improves the bird-repelling effect. The module is simple to set up, reducing deployment and subsequent maintenance costs. Furthermore, the vibration detection module can accurately obtain the bird's movement status, preventing false triggering of the bird-repelling module, reducing operating power consumption, and extending service life.

[0016] Figure 1 This is a schematic block diagram of the bird-repelling device in an embodiment of this utility model; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the process of detecting vibration using a vibration sensor in conjunction with a humidity sensor and a wind sensor in an embodiment of this utility model.
[0017] Label Explanation: 1. Main control module; 2. Power supply module; 3. Vibration detection module; 4. Bird deterrent module; 5. Humidity sensor; 6. Wind sensor. Detailed Implementation
[0018] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0019] This embodiment provides an intelligent bird deterrent device for insulators, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes: Power module 2 is electrically connected to main control module 1 and is used to supply power to main control module 1; Vibration detection module 3 is electrically connected to main control module 1 and is used to detect vibration signals generated when birds peck at insulators; Bird deterrence module 4 includes a sound-generating unit and a light-emitting unit. The main control module 1 is electrically connected to the bird deterrence module 4 and is used to drive the sound-generating unit and the light-emitting unit to generate sounds of different frequencies and light with varying rhythms according to the vibration signal to drive away birds.
[0020] This embodiment uses a vibration monitoring module to accurately detect vibration signals generated by birds pecking at insulators. These vibration signals are transmitted to the main control module 1, which activates the bird-repelling module 4. The main control module 4 then uses its sound-emitting unit to emit sounds of different frequencies, while its light-emitting unit emits rhythmically changing lights. This combination of different sound frequencies and rhythmically changing lights prevents birds from developing tolerance to the predictable sounds and lights, effectively improving the bird-repelling effect and thus enhancing the reliability and stability of the power supply system. Furthermore, the bird-repelling device module in this embodiment is relatively simple, reducing deployment and subsequent maintenance costs.
[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the vibration detection module 3 in this embodiment is a vibration sensor, which can respond to minute vibration signals. The vibration amplitude generated when birds peck at insulators is usually small, and the vibration sensor can accurately capture these minute vibration changes and convert the vibration signal into an electrical signal, which is then transmitted to the main control module 1. This allows the main control module 1 to accurately control the bird deterrent module 4, preventing the bird deterrent module 4 from being triggered falsely, thereby reducing power consumption and increasing service life.
[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment also includes a humidity sensor 5, which is electrically connected to the main control module 1 and is used to detect the ambient humidity in real time.
[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment also includes a wind sensor 6, which is electrically connected to the main control module 1 and is used to detect the ambient wind force in real time.
[0024] To prevent vibration sensors from misinterpreting data due to rain or wind, this embodiment uses a humidity sensor 5 and a wind sensor 6 to detect the humidity and wind speed of the external environment. This ensures that the bird deterrent module 4 will not be activated unnecessarily in inclement weather, thereby reducing the overall power consumption of the bird deterrent device and extending its service life. The workflow of the vibration sensor, humidity sensor 5, and wind sensor 6 is as follows: Figure 2 As shown.
[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the power module 2 in this embodiment includes a solar panel and a lithium battery, with the lithium battery electrically connected to both the solar panel and the main control module 1.
[0026] In this embodiment, by setting up a solar panel and a lithium battery, solar energy can be converted into electrical energy and stored in the lithium battery on sunny days, so as to continuously supply power to the main control module 1 during dark nights or rainy, snowy, or cloudy days.
[0027] Furthermore, the solar panel in this embodiment is an epoxy polycrystalline solar panel, which is encapsulated using an epoxy process. It has good waterproof and dustproof performance, can adapt to harsh outdoor natural environmental conditions, and provides operational stability.
[0028] Furthermore, the main control module 1 in this embodiment is one of the 51 microcontroller, STM32 microcontroller, and MSP430 microcontroller, but is not limited to this. Users can choose the main control module 1 according to their actual needs to improve the convenience of deployment.
[0029] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the sound-generating unit is a buzzer. When the main control module 1 receives the vibration signal from the vibration detection module 3, it adjusts the duty cycle of the pulse output through PWM pulse width modulation to achieve different output frequencies, enabling the buzzer to emit sounds at different frequencies from 40 to 4000 Hz, but not limited to these. Therefore, the buzzer can directly emit high-frequency sounds or sounds similar to those of bird predators, such as snakes (frequency 100-300 Hz, 1000-4000 Hz), to scare away birds. Moreover, as the frequency or number of bird pecking changes, the main control module 1 can drive the buzzer to emit a non-periodic sound with varying frequency, avoiding bird adaptability and improving the bird-repelling effect.
[0030] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the light-emitting unit is an LED light. When the main control module 1 receives the signal from the vibration detection module 3, the main control module 1 drives the LED light to emit light of various colors and rhythmic variations. As the frequency or number of bird pecking changes, the main control module 1 can drive the LED light to emit light with non-periodic and rhythmic variations, avoiding bird adaptability and improving the bird-repelling effect.
[0031] Furthermore, the bird deterrent device is located inside the housing, which is attached to the grounding end of the insulator by adhesive bonding.
[0032] Due to the small size of each module, for ease of installation, the entire bird deterrent device is housed inside a casing (not shown in the figure). The casing is made of high-strength, wear-resistant materials, such as transparent acrylic, which can withstand harsh natural environments and ensure the normal operation of each module. During installation, simply attach the casing along with the bird deterrent device to the grounding terminal of the insulator, simplifying the installation process and offering flexible use.
[0033] The bird deterrent device in this embodiment combines two current hot and green technologies: solar energy and buzzers. By designing a low-power variable frequency bird deterrent module 4, it can change according to the duration and number of bird pecking, reducing the birds' adaptability to sound and light. Furthermore, through the vibration detection module 3, in conjunction with the humidity sensor 5 and the wind sensor 6, the bird deterrent module 4 is activated when birds peck at it, but does not respond when it rains or the wind blows, which can avoid the bird deterrent module 4 being triggered falsely, reduce the operating power of the entire bird deterrent device, and effectively improve the bird deterrent effect.
[0034] The directional terms used in this specification are defined relative to the structures shown in the accompanying drawings. They are relative concepts and may therefore vary depending on their location and usage. Therefore, these or other directional terms should not be interpreted as restrictive.
[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the design of this case. All equivalent changes made based on the key design of this case shall fall within the protection scope of this case.
