Description

Device to scare away birds.

Object of the invention

The present invention, as expressed in the statement of this specification refers to a device to scare away birds, which aims to provide an unstable surface, so that if a bird perches on the It causes a feeling of unpleasant instability that determines that the bird moves to another area where it sits more stable.

The invention is applicable in any surface on which you want to prevent birds from landing, and more specifically in poyetes, balconies, railings, cornices, shelves, Gutters and the like.

Background of the invention

In the state of the art the employment is known of devices to scare away birds from areas where the deposition of Excrement is an aesthetic or functional problem.

In this sense the model of Spanish utility with application number 200802238 in which describes a device to scare away birds that is formed by a motherboard on which a socket is located that allows to locate distributed several flexible stainless steel rods with End finished in a blunt cut.

You can also cite the utility model Spanish with application number 200602528 in which some "V" rods at the base.

Therefore the devices of the state of The technique is based on the use of wires or sharp elements of considerable length, whose shape and arrangement can produce in the bird damage when approaching, which constitutes a inconvenient.

In addition its assembly produces an aesthetic impact over the very remarkable installation area, which does it recently appropriate for domestic use, since not only is the danger integrity of the bird, but even poses a danger to their own people approaching.

Description of the invention

To achieve the objectives and solve the drawbacks mentioned above, the invention has developed a new device to scare away birds, which provides a alternative to state-of-the-art devices, and that characterized by comprising a base in which they are inserted appendages arranged in multiple directions, having also provided means for fixing the base to the surface to to protect.

This configuration has the great advantage of which does not pose a danger to the integrity of the bird, and at the same time respects the aesthetics of the surface on which it is installed, building, balcony, shelf, etc., and all this with a very low cost.

Appendices arranged in multiple directions, determine that in case a bird is possessed on the device, it produces a feeling of unpleasant instability, which in most cases produces the flight of the bird to another place where you feel more stable.

In one embodiment of the invention the base is determined by a continuous roller band, but it is also planned that can be determined by a rigid band, equipped with openwork that cross the base for material reduction, and at the same time for the evacuation of rainwater.

The appendices have an included length between 1 and 8 cm. and can present a rigid configuration or semi-rigid, so that in case they present a rigid configuration, its end is rounded to prevent it from cause damage to birds and / or people.

In addition, in another embodiment of the invention the appendages are provided at their end with a body impregnated with a or more odorous substances, such as a perfume or a repellent of insects, so that the device of the invention meets a triple function; prevent birds from perching, provide odors pleasant, and / or repel the approach of insects to device.

Regarding the fixing means, these can be of a mechanical type or by arrangement of a surface bottom self adhesive on the base.

The mechanical means of fixing the base, they can be clamps in which extensions are provided that They determine a decorative motif. The invention provides that said motive decorative can comprise a body impregnated with at least one odorous substance equivalent to that provided at the end of the appendages

In either case, the body impregnated with at least one odorous substance, it may be determined by an open housing containing particles odorous, such as seeds or the like.

Any of the planned accomplishments will be may manufacture with rigid or flexible materials to allow its curl as described.

In addition to any of the embodiments planned is designed to allow easy washing, either dismounting from its location or on it.

Similarly, the manufacture of the device is materialize covering a wide range of colors, to improve your adaptability to the shades of buildings, facades, balconies, etc.

Next to facilitate a better understanding of this descriptive report and being an integral part of the same, they accompany a series of figures in which with illustrative and non-limiting nature has been represented the object of the invention.

Brief statement of the figures

Figure 1.- Shows a possible example of embodiment of the device of the invention that is mounted on the railing of a balcony, in which the base is constituted by a continuous roll band. It also shows a detail of the different upper extremes where the Appendices

Figure 2.- Shows another possible example of embodiment of the device of the invention in which the base is constituted by a rigid band endowed with openwork.

Description of the preferred embodiment

Below is a description of the invention based on the figures discussed above.

Figure 1 shows a first example of embodiment in which the device comprises a base (1) that is determined by a continuous roller band (1), which in the example of realization is fixed on the railing (3) of a balcony, such and as will be described later. At the base (1) are inserted appendages (2) arranged in multiple directions of a maximum of 8 cm., which in the example of figure 1 have a semi-rigid configuration.

In addition, in Figure 1, different are shown details of the terminations of the upper ends of the appendices (2), such as a termination with a narrowing (4), a rounded termination (5) or a body (6) inside which houses particles (7) impregnated with substances fragrant to generate a pleasant smell sensation, or sayings Odorous substances can be insect repellents, preventing these approach the area in which the device.

Fixing the base (1) on the railing, is carried out by means of a clamp (8), as for example it can be a wire that wraps around the device and railing (3), but it can also be a self-adhesive sheet (not represented), provided on the underside of the base (1) to be adheres on the upper surface of the railing (3), or any other conventional means that allows fixing effective.

In the exemplary embodiment, the clamp (8) it presents some ornamental motifs determined by extensions (9), which may represent leaves, seeds, fruits, etc., so that said extensions (9) can be equivalent to bodies (6) inside which include particles (7) impregnated with a odorous substance

Figure 2 shows another example of embodiment in which the base is a rigid band (1a) provided with openwork (10) that reduce the amount of material and ensure a good water evacuation, whose fixation is done in the ways that were already described for the description of the device represented in figure 1.
