Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bird deterrence technology, and specifically relates to a warning bird deterrence light mounted on a drone. Background Technology
[0002] With the large-scale construction of power grids, the coverage of transmission lines is constantly expanding, widely distributed in various areas such as plains, mountains, and urban-rural fringe areas. In actual operation, transmission lines face two major problems: insufficient warning and protection, and safety hazards caused by bird activity.
[0003] In terms of warning, traditional power transmission line warning lights have many limitations: some are fixed installations, requiring professional personnel to carry special tools for high-altitude operations, which not only consumes a lot of manpower and resources, but also poses extremely high risks when installed on high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage lines, requiring temporary power outages and affecting the stability of power supply; some rely on a single battery for power supply, with limited battery life, and the maintenance cost of frequent battery replacements in mountainous and remote areas is high; and some warning lights can only emit a single color or a fixed frequency of light, making them difficult for pedestrians and passing vehicles to effectively detect in complex environments such as fog, rain, or when obscured by trees, thus failing to play a sufficient warning role.
[0004] Regarding bird control, birds perching and nesting on power towers, supports, and poles has become one of the main causes of transmission line faults. Bird droppings can corrode line insulators, leading to decreased insulation performance and causing short circuits and tripping; bird nest materials (such as branches and wires) may bridging the lines, causing grounding faults. Traditional bird control methods, such as scarecrows, ultrasonic bird deterrents, and reflective mirrors, have problems such as limited effectiveness, short duration, and easy adaptation by birds; some bird control devices require fixed installation, which also poses safety risks of working at heights, and cannot be integrated with warning functions, resulting in the need for separate warning and bird control devices for transmission lines, increasing equipment investment and maintenance costs.
[0005] Furthermore, existing equipment is mostly single-function, only capable of providing warnings or simple bird deterrence, failing to meet both core requirements and exhibiting poor adaptability, making it difficult to simultaneously meet the usage needs of different types of transmission lines, such as high-voltage, ultra-high-voltage, and low-voltage lines. Therefore, developing an integrated device that is easy to install, reliably powered, and combines efficient warning and bird deterrence functions is of significant practical importance for ensuring the safe and stable operation of transmission lines and reducing maintenance costs. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a warning and bird deterrent light for drones, in order to solve the problems of inconvenient installation and removal, unstable power supply, poor warning effect and lack of effective bird deterrent function of existing warning lights, so as to realize the integration of warning and bird deterrence, adapt to various power transmission lines and reduce operation and maintenance costs.
[0007] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a drone-mounted warning and bird-repelling light, comprising a mounting mechanism, a main body component, a warning mechanism, a bird-repelling mechanism, and a power supply mechanism; the mounting mechanism includes a left clamping spring, a right clamping spring, a spring shaft, and a tension spring, the left clamping spring and the right clamping spring being rotatably connected by the spring shaft, the two ends of the tension spring being respectively connected to the left clamping spring and the right clamping spring, and a clamping space adapted to the power transmission line being formed between the left clamping spring and the right clamping spring; The main component includes a transparent main tube, a front cover, and a rear cover, wherein the front cover and the rear cover are detachably connected to both ends of the transparent main tube; The warning mechanism includes a control motherboard and warning LEDs electrically connected to the control motherboard.

A positioning bushing is provided inside the transparent main tube, and the battery is fixed by the positioning bushing. A switch cap is provided on the outer side of the rear cover, and the switch cap is electrically connected to the control motherboard.
[0008] The above technical solution utilizes a mounting mechanism consisting of a left clamping spring, a right clamping spring, a spring shaft, and a tension spring. This allows a drone to bring the equipment close to the power transmission line, enabling rapid mounting through the clamping space, eliminating the need for manual high-altitude work and making it suitable for high-voltage, ultra-high-voltage, and low-voltage lines. The solar panel and battery work together to provide dual protection with solar charging and backup power, solving the problem of unstable power supply in traditional equipment. The warning lights can switch between multiple colors and flashing modes, enhancing the warning effect in complex environments. The starry laser head emits green multi-point lasers with a wide coverage area, effectively deterring birds and preventing them from nesting on power towers, supports, and poles. This integrated design combines warning and bird deterrence functions, reducing equipment investment costs.
[0009] The present invention is further provided that the clamping surfaces of the left clamping spring and the right clamping spring are provided with anti-slip rubber pads.
[0010] The above technical solution is adopted: the anti-slip rubber pad can increase the friction between the clamping surface and the transmission line, prevent the equipment from sliding or falling off under the action of external forces such as wind, and at the same time prevent excessive clamping force from damaging the insulation layer of the line.
[0011] The present invention is further configured such that at least two star-shaped laser heads are provided, and they are evenly distributed in a ring on the front cover.
[0012] Using the above technical solution: multiple ring-shaped distributed star-shaped laser heads can achieve 360° laser coverage without blind spots, expand the bird-repelling range, improve the bird-repelling effect, and ensure that power towers, supports and surrounding areas can be covered by lasers.
[0013] The present invention is further configured such that the warning light bead includes two colors, red and yellow, and works with the control motherboard to achieve three working modes: constant light, strobe, and strobe.
[0014] The above technical solution uses red and yellow warning lights to adapt to different scenarios (such as daytime, nighttime, and severe weather), and multiple working modes can be switched according to actual needs, improving the pertinence and effectiveness of warnings and ensuring that pedestrians and vehicles can detect power transmission lines in a timely manner.
[0015] The present invention is further configured such that the solar panel is made of monocrystalline silicon and has an anti-reflective coating on its surface.

[0017] The present invention is further configured such that the battery is a lithium battery, and an overcharge and over-discharge protection module is provided between the battery and the control motherboard.
[0018] The above technical solution features lithium batteries with high energy density and light weight, making them suitable for drone mounting requirements; the overcharge and over-discharge protection module can prevent battery damage due to overcharging or over-discharging, extend battery life, and improve power supply stability.
[0019] The present invention is further configured such that the transparent main tube is made of PC material and has a scratch-resistant and wear-resistant coating on its surface.
[0020] The above technical solution utilizes the following features: PC material has high strength, impact resistance, and good light transmittance, which can protect internal components from external damage; the scratch-resistant and wear-resistant coating can prevent surface wear caused by long-term outdoor use, thus avoiding affecting the light penetration effect of the warning light beads.
[0021] The present invention is further configured such that both the front cover and the rear cover are connected to the transparent main body tube by threads, and a waterproof sealing ring is provided at the connection.
[0022] The above technical solution facilitates disassembly and maintenance, while the waterproof sealing ring improves the equipment's sealing performance, preventing rainwater and dew from entering and causing short circuits, and is suitable for complex outdoor weather environments.
[0023] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. With the spring clamping mounting mechanism, drones can be used to quickly mount the equipment on high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage lines. Low-voltage lines can be mounted manually without the need for high-altitude operations and power outages, reducing operational risks and labor costs, and causing no damage to the lines. 2.

The transparent main tube 9 is equipped with a positioning sleeve 8, and the battery 7 is fixed by the positioning sleeve 8. The outside of the rear cover 5 is equipped with a switch cap 12, which is electrically connected to the control main board 11. Through the hanging mechanism composed of a left clamping spring, a right clamping spring, a spring shaft, and a tension spring, the device can be brought close to the power transmission line by a drone. The clamping space enables quick hanging without the need for manual high-altitude operations, and it is compatible with high-voltage, ultra-high-voltage, and low-voltage lines. The solar panel and the battery work together to achieve dual protection of solar charging and backup power supply, solving the problem of unstable power supply in traditional equipment.

The starry sky laser head emits green multi-point lasers with a wide coverage area, which can effectively drive away birds and prevent them from nesting on power towers, supports, and poles. It has both warning and bird-repelling functions, and the integrated design reduces the equipment investment cost.
[0028] refer to Figure 1-2 Both the left clamping spring 1 and the right clamping spring 3 are equipped with anti-slip rubber pads on their clamping surfaces. The anti-slip rubber pads can increase the friction between the clamping surfaces and the power transmission line, preventing the equipment from sliding or falling off under the action of external forces such as wind, and at the same time preventing excessive clamping force from damaging the insulation layer of the line.
[0029] refer to Figure 1-2 At least two starry laser heads 4 are provided and are evenly distributed in a ring on the front cover 13. Multiple ring-distributed starry laser heads 4 can achieve 360° laser coverage without dead angles, expand the bird-repelling range, improve the bird-repelling effect, and ensure that the power tower, support and surrounding area can be covered by laser.
[0030] refer to Figure 1-2The warning light beads include two colors: red and yellow. They work with the control motherboard 11 to achieve three working modes: constant light, strobe, and flashing. The red and yellow warning light beads are suitable for different scenarios such as daytime, nighttime, and inclement weather. Multiple working modes can be switched according to actual needs to improve the pertinence and effectiveness of the warning and ensure that pedestrians and vehicles can detect the power transmission line in time.
[0031] refer to Figure 1-2 The solar panel 15 is made of monocrystalline silicon and has an anti-reflective coating on its surface.

PC material has the characteristics of high strength, impact resistance and good light transmission, which can protect the internal components from external damage. The scratch-resistant and wear-resistant coating can prevent surface wear caused by long-term outdoor use, which would affect the light penetration effect of the warning light beads.
[0034] refer to Figure 1-2 Both the front cover 13 and the rear cover 5 are connected to the transparent main tube 9 by threads, and a waterproof sealing ring is provided at the connection. The threaded connection makes it easy to disassemble and maintain, and the waterproof sealing ring can improve the sealing performance of the equipment and prevent rainwater and dew from entering the interior and causing short circuits, making it suitable for complex outdoor weather environments.
[0035] Brief description of usage: When installing on high-voltage or ultra-high-voltage lines, the operator uses a drone to carry this equipment to the target location. The drone's robotic arm or rope pulls the left clamping spring 1 and right clamping spring 3, causing them to open around the spring axis 6. After aligning the clamping space with the transmission line, the tension is released, and the tension spring 10 resets, causing the left clamping spring 1 and right clamping spring 3 to close, thus mounting the equipment. The anti-slip rubber pad increases friction and prevents the equipment from sliding. When installing on low-voltage lines, the left clamping spring 1 and right clamping spring 3 can be manually pulled open. After mounting, they can be released. The equipment is started via the switch cap 12. After the main board 11 is powered on, the warning light enters a strobe mode by default. This can be activated by pressing and holding the switch. Hat 12 switches between constant light and strobe modes; the starry laser head 4 starts simultaneously, emitting green multi-point lasers to achieve 360° bird-repelling coverage. During the day, solar panel 15 absorbs sunlight and converts it into electricity to charge lithium battery 7. Overcharge and over-discharge protection module prevents lithium battery 7 from overcharging. At night or when there is insufficient light, lithium battery 7 supplies power to control motherboard 11, warning light beads and starry laser head 4 to ensure continuous operation of the equipment. Regularly check the equipment status. If the brightness of the warning light beads decreases, the laser range shortens, or the power supply becomes worse, the equipment can be disassembled by drone or manually. Unscrew the front cover 13 or the back cover 5, replace worn parts such as battery 7 and starry laser head 4, and reinstall after maintenance.
[0036] It should be noted that parts have a lifespan and can be replaced during regular maintenance when they no longer meet performance requirements. Deterioration in performance due to prolonged use of parts is not a design defect of this application.
[0037] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present utility model, they are protected by patent law.
