Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to devices for preventing bird strike risks during aircraft takeoff and landing in the field of airport safety technology, specifically a high-altitude firecracker bird deterrent device. Background Technology

[0002] Bird strikes are a significant threat to aviation safety, especially in and around airport runways, where bird activity is frequent and poses a potential threat to aircraft takeoff and landing. Traditional bird deterrence methods, such as sound intimidation, light interference, and chemical repellents, have limited effectiveness, poor adaptability, and restricted use. While firecrackers are effective, traditional methods suffer from safety hazards and are not suitable for all-weather conditions. Therefore, developing a highly efficient, safe, and adaptable high-altitude firecracker bird deterrence device is of paramount importance. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a high-altitude firecracker bird-repelling device that addresses the safety hazards and weather limitations associated with firecracker-based bird-repelling methods.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: This high-altitude firecracker bird-repelling device includes a solar panel, a main control box, and a launching platform. The main control box contains a battery, a solar controller, a current regulator, a cycle start controller, a wireless receiver and antenna, and a relay. Multiple firecracker launching tubes are installed on the launching platform. Each firecracker launching tube has a movable cover mechanism at its upper end above the launching platform. The movable cover mechanism includes a movable frame, a rotating rod, a rainproof cover, and a limiting block. One end of the rotating rod is fixed to the rainproof cover. The other end is hinged to the movable frame, which is located between the limiting block and the firecracker launching tube. The firecracker launching tube has symmetrical slotted openings at its lower port below the launching platform. The arc-shaped locking plate of the one-way locking mechanism extends into the firecracker launching tube from one slotted opening, and the ignition wire of the ignition device is located at the other slotted opening. The one-way locking mechanism includes a spring, an arc-shaped handle, and an arc-shaped locking plate. The arc-shaped handle and the arc-shaped locking plate are connected as one unit at an obtuse angle. The lower end of the spring is fixed at the intersection angle of the arc-shaped locking plate and the arc-shaped handle, and the upper end of the spring is fixed to the outside of the firecracker launching tube.

[0005] In the above scheme, the outer edge of the firecracker launching tube has a flange, the launching platform has the same number of tube holes as the firecracker launching tube, and the firecracker launching tube is fixed in one of the tube holes of the launching platform through the flange.

[0006] In the above scheme, two wing plates are provided on the outside of the firecracker launching tube, and an arc-shaped handle and an arc-shaped locking plate are located between the two wing plates. There are two springs, with one spring on the outside of each wing plate.

[0007] In the above scheme, the firecracker launching tube is equipped with a right-angled bend plate. The horizontal plate of the right-angled bend plate is located above the ignition wire, and the vertical plate of the right-angled bend plate is fixedly connected to the flange plate. The ignition device is installed through the right-angled bend plate.

[0008] In the above scheme, a rubber pad is provided on the upper surface of the limiting block. When the firecracker is lit, the rainproof cover is pushed open and it rushes out of the firecracker launch tube. The rainproof cover flips upward from the firecracker launch tube, the rotating rod rotates and falls naturally onto the rubber pad, which can play a role in buffering and shock absorption.

[0009] The main control box in the above scheme is also equipped with an audible and visual alarm. During the operation of the high-altitude firecracker bird deterrent equipment, an audible and visual alarm will be emitted to remind staff to stay away.

[0010] In the above scheme, the wireless receiver and antenna are wirelessly connected to the remote control, which is a 1000-meter remote control.

[0011] In the above scheme, the launching platform is equipped with 8 firecracker launching tubes, which are arranged in two parallel rows, with 4 firecracker launching tubes in each row.

[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. The installation process of this utility model firecracker is simple. Simply push the firecracker into the firing tube from the lower end. After being pushed in, the firecracker is pushed to the opposite side by the arc-shaped locking plate, positioning it against the firing tube on the ignition wire side. The firecracker is a double-bang type, and its fuse can be observed through the slot at the ignition wire, facilitating adjustment of the fuse to contact the ignition wire. Simultaneously, the arc-shaped locking plate secures the firecracker and prevents it from falling off. The ignition wire is remotely controlled to ignite the firecracker fuse, causing the gunpowder at the bottom of the double-bang to explode, generating a reaction force that propels it out and scare away birds with its explosion. The launching platform also features a rainproof cover. In rainy weather, the rainproof cover is flipped over and placed over the firing tube. The ignition and firing of the firecracker are still remotely controlled. When the double-bang firecracker is launched, the rainproof cover is blown open, ensuring normal bird scare even in rainy weather. This achieves stable operation and safety, solving the safety hazards and inability to adapt to all-weather conditions inherent in traditional methods.

[0013] 2. This utility model has high safety: it adopts remote control operation, avoiding the risk of manually lighting firecrackers; the equipment will emit sound and light alarms during operation to remind staff to stay away, and can be remotely controlled by remote control to ensure safety and reduce personnel input and time costs.

[0014] 3. This utility model has high bird-repelling efficiency: one-button cyclic control to set off multiple firecrackers improves bird-repelling efficiency; it can adapt to different weather conditions to ensure all-weather bird-repelling effect; it is environmentally friendly and energy-saving: it uses solar power, which is pollution-free and noiseless; all components operate independently and are easy to maintain.

[0015] 4. The solar panel of this utility model is responsible for providing 12V power to the equipment, enabling the equipment to be placed in any location where bird control work needs to be carried out. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings: Combination Figures 1-8As shown, this high-altitude firecracker bird-repelling device includes a solar panel 1, a main control box 2, and a launching platform 3. Each of these three parts is independent and connected by wires, facilitating disassembly and transportation. The main control box 2 contains a battery, a solar controller, a current regulator, a cycle start controller, a wireless receiver and antenna, an audible and visual alarm, and a high-power relay. The launching platform 2 is equipped with multiple firecracker launching tubes 5. In this embodiment, eight firecracker launching tubes are arranged in two parallel rows, with four tubes in each row. The firecracker launching tubes 8 and a one-way locking mechanism constitute the launching device. Solar panel 1 provides power, ensuring the equipment is self-sufficient in power. The main control box 2 integrates key components such as the battery, solar controller, current regulator, and wireless controller, ensuring stable and safe operation. These components work together to ensure the smooth operation of the power supply system, adjust the output current, receive wireless signals, and allocate tasks. During operation, the equipment emits audible and visual alarms to alert personnel to stay away. The launching platform has eight firecracker launch tubes, capable of loading eight firecrackers at once, regardless of size, improving bird-scaring efficiency. All parts are connected by wires for easy disassembly, transportation, and installation. The equipment also comes with a 1000-meter remote control, enabling remote control of firecracker ignition and launch, enhancing operational safety and convenience.

[0026] Each firecracker launcher tube 5 has a movable cover mechanism at its upper end above the launch platform. The movable cover includes a movable frame 6, a rotating rod 7, a rainproof cover 8, and a limiting block 9. One end of the rotating rod 7 is fixed to the rainproof cover 8, and the other end of the rotating rod 7 is hinged to the movable frame 6. The movable frame 6 is located between the limiting block 9 and the firecracker launcher tube 5. The rainproof movable cover 8 on the firecracker launcher tube 5 ensures that the equipment can operate normally even on rainy days. A rubber pad is provided on the upper surface of the limiting block 9. When the firecracker is lit, it pushes open the rainproof cover 8 and rushes out of the firecracker launcher tube 5. The rainproof cover 8 flips upward from the firecracker launcher tube 5, the rotating rod 7 rotates, and it naturally falls onto the rubber pad, which provides cushioning and shock absorption.

[0027] A slotted opening 17 is symmetrically arranged at the lower end of the firecracker launching tube 5, located below the launching platform. An arc-shaped locking plate 10 of the one-way locking mechanism extends into the firecracker launching tube from one slot, while the ignition wire 16 of the ignition device is located at the other slot, through which the firecracker inside the launching tube can be seen. The one-way locking mechanism includes a spring 12, an arc-shaped handle 11, and an arc-shaped locking plate 10. The arc-shaped handle 11 and the arc-shaped locking plate 10 are connected at an obtuse angle. The lower end of the spring 12 is fixed to the junction of the arc-shaped locking plate 10 and the arc-shaped handle 11, and the upper end of the spring 12 is fixed to the outside of the firecracker launching tube 5. The one-way locking mechanism secures the firecracker and prevents it from falling off.

[0028] The firecracker launching tube 5 has a flange 13 on its outer edge. The launching platform 3 has the same number of pipe holes as the firecracker launching tube. The firecracker launching tube 5 is fixed in one of the pipe holes of the launching platform 3 through the flange 13. Two wing plates 14 are provided on the outer side of the firecracker launching tube. An arc-shaped handle 11 and an arc-shaped locking plate 10 are located between the two wing plates 14. There are two springs 12, one on the outer side of each wing plate 14. The firecracker launching tube 5 is provided with a right-angled bend plate 15. The horizontal plate of the right-angled bend plate 15 is located above the ignition wire 16. The vertical plate of the right-angled bend plate 15 is fixedly connected to the flange. The ignition device is installed through the right-angled bend plate 15.

[0029] Each firecracker launcher tube 5 can be installed and removed independently, facilitating maintenance and parts replacement. The equipment can be controlled via a 1000-meter remote control; each press of the button ignites one firecracker, and so on, effectively preventing accidental operation.

[0030] When scare away birds, first place the firecracker into the firecracker launch tube 5 from bottom to top (or press the arc-shaped handle 11 to move the arc-shaped locking plate 10 outward from the slot, thus placing the firecracker into the launch tube from bottom to top), ensuring that the firecracker fuse is aligned with the ignition wire 16. Then, remotely control the ignition and launch of the firecracker using the remote control. Each press of the button ignites one firecracker, and the process continues until all firecrackers have been set off. The equipment will emit an audible and visual alarm during operation to remind staff to stay away for safety.

[0031] The "two-bang" firecracker, also known as "sky-drilling firecracker," is a double-explosive firecracker. Its upper and lower gunpowder layers are separated by a partition layer, and the fuse passes through the partition layer to achieve a delayed detonation. The reaction force generated by the explosion of the lower gunpowder layer propels the firecracker into the air at a height of 10-20 meters, and then the upper gunpowder layer explodes a second time, creating a double-bang effect.

[0032] This invention not only solves the drawbacks of traditional firecrackers for scareing birds, but also improves the efficiency and safety of bird scare.
