[Camera for surveillance]
The pest detection unit 2 may use a monitoring camera (referred to as 2 ′ for convenience) (see FIG. 6).
For example, since bears and monkeys appear in the morning and evening or daylight, a configuration may be used in which a beast that has entered the surveillance area A such as a field is detected through the lens of the camera 2 ′.
If an infrared camera is used, it can be detected even at night.
When detected by the camera in this way, a detection signal can be transmitted to a control device described later by image recognition, and the light emitting device 5 can be automatically controlled via an actuator to emit laser light or flash light.

[Light emitting device]
In the present embodiment, the light emitting device 5 includes a first light emitter 5A that emits visible light laser and a second light emitter 5B that emits flash light. However, as described later, only the laser light emitter may be used. .
The first light emitter 5A has high directivity and high density.
The second light emitter 5B has a low directivity but a large energy divergence.
The light emission pattern at the time of light emission may be continuous, regular or irregular intermittent, and any pattern can be used.
In addition, the light emitting device 5 may have a configuration in which one or a plurality of first light emitters 5A and second light emitters 5B are arranged, or the light emitters 5A and 5B alone or a structure in which the entire light emitting device 5 is rotated. .

In the case where a plurality of light emitters are provided in the light emitting device 2, the second light emitters 5B are preferably provided at an appropriate interval between the first light emitters 5A and the first light emitters 5A, and less than the number of the first light emitters 5A. May be.

In the above embodiment, both visible laser beam and flash light are used. However, in the present invention, only a laser beam emitter may be used.

[Control device]
When the infestation of the pest is detected by the pest detection unit 2, the control device 10 emits laser light or flash light from the light emitting device 5 toward the vicinity of the pest's eyeball based on the position of the pest. It is an apparatus to control (refer FIG. 5).
That is, when a detection signal is output from the pest detection unit 2, the light emitting device 5 is controlled as follows.
(1) A large number of light emitters are arranged radially in the light emitting device 5, and control is performed so that laser light and flash light are emitted from all the light emitters.
(2) Based on the detection signal of the pest, measure the current position of the pest, select a light emitter that can emit light toward the position, and emit laser light or flashlight from the selected light emitter Control.
(3) Based on the pest detection signal, the current position of the pest is measured, and the light emitting device is displaced or rotated toward the position via an actuator to emit laser light or flash light from the light emitter. To control.

As shown in FIG. 5, the control of the control device 10 activates a sensor or camera serving as the pest detection unit 2, and then performs pest detection using the sensor or camera, and continues detection if it is not detected. If it is detected, the position of the pest is measured.
The light emitting device 5 is controlled based on the position of the harmful animal, and laser light or the like is emitted toward the vicinity of the eye of the harmful animal.
After the launch, it is determined again by the sensor or camera whether the pest is still in the monitoring area A. If not, the monitoring is continued.
If the pest is still present, the position of the pest is measured, the light emitting device 5 is controlled, a laser beam is emitted, and the process is repeated until there is no pest.

[Solar power generation panel]
All or a part of the power source of the pest detection unit 2, the light emitting device 5, and the control device 10 can be operated by charging with power generation using the solar power generation panel 3.
If the whole can be covered with electricity from the photovoltaic power generation panel 3, the maintenance cost of the electricity bill can be reduced.

In FIG. 7, the different schematic diagram of the pest repelling apparatus 1 is shown.

It is preferable that the light emitting device 5 and the control device 10 are arranged under the above and the surroundings are installed by being surrounded by a wire net 9 so that harmful animals do not enter.

Therefore, a wire may be stretched radially to support the pole together with the base or in place of the base and fixed with anchor heat.
Moreover, even if the first light emitter 5A and the second light emitter 5B are provided only in one direction by rotating the light emitting device 5 about the pole 8 as the central axis, the light emitting device 5 can be used as a harmful animal detection unit. You may make it light-emit by rotating to the position detected by 2. FIG.

In this case, when the monitoring range of the pest detection unit 2 and the light emission possible range of the light emitting device 5 are limited, the plurality of pest repelling devices 1 are arranged so that the entire circumference of 360 degrees becomes the monitoring and light emission range. What is necessary is just to arrange | position in combination.
When the pest detection unit 2 is an infrared sensor, the transmitter and the receiver are arranged as a set at an arbitrary position according to the size of the monitoring area A, and therefore may be arranged separately from the pole.
