It is used as a means for. In other words, the electric fence is mainly installed around farmland or barn, and serves to protect agricultural products and livestock from wild animals or thieves.

These electric fences mainly use commercial power or solar cells as a means of supplying electrical energy. Of these, since 110V or 220V is supplied to the fence as it is, a commercial power supply poses a risk of electric shock to livestock, wild animals or humans. Therefore, the supply of electric fence using solar cells is increasing in recent years.

On the other hand, when the crops grow in earnest during the summer, or in wet weather, when contacted with wet weeds, the leakage current increases greatly, and the output voltage flowing through the fence can drop significantly. In addition, since the battery is not charged by the solar cell at night, the output voltage flowing through the pulse may drop. In addition, even when the battery is being charged through the solar cell due to insufficient charge of the battery, or when the charge is insufficient due to deterioration of the battery performance, the output voltage flowing to the fence may drop.

In such a case, since high voltage is not supplied to the wild animals approaching the fence, the electrical shock may cause damage to crops or livestock.

The electric fence main body 10 transmits a pulsed high voltage to the fence 70 using the electrical energy generated by the solar cell 10, or outputs an alarm sound or an alarm light. The electric fence main body 10 may be installed inside an area formed of the plurality of posts 60 and the fence 70. The electric fence main body 10 supplies a pulsed high voltage to the fence 60 through the output terminal 21 of the anode. The electric fence main body 10 is grounded to the ground through the ground terminal 23 of the negative electrode. In this case, the ground terminal 23 may be grounded to the ground using a plurality of ground rods.

The plurality of struts 60 are fixedly installed on the ground at regular intervals so as to surround the area where the livestock and crops to be protected are located. Although it is preferable to form a some space | interval narrowly, it is preferable to install in the 3-5m space in consideration of installation cost. If the distance between the struts 60 exceeds 5m, the conductive wires of the fence 70 installed between the struts 60 may sag or fail to stably support the conductive wires. At this time, the support 60 may be used, such as iron steel pipe, aluminum steel pipe, wood veneer, FRP insulation column.

The fence 70 is formed by connecting a plurality of struts 60 to each other using a conductive wire having conductivity capable of flowing a pulsed high voltage. The conductive wire forming the fence 70 is constructed in three to five lines on the support 60, and is connected to the output terminal 21 of the electrical fence body 10.

In particular, the electric fence body 10 according to the present embodiment supplies a pulse type high voltage whose intensity is adjusted according to the amount of electrical energy generated by the solar cell 11 to the fence 70 to approach the fence 70. The animal may be driven out, or an alarm sound or an alarm light may be output to drive out the wild animal approaching the fence 70. That is, the electric fence main body 10 determines whether the charging amount is less than or equal to the threshold charging amount, and when the determination result is greater than or equal to the threshold charging amount, the high voltage for alarm is periodically supplied to the fence 70. On the contrary, when the determination result is less than the threshold charge amount, the electric fence main body 10 generates a high voltage for sensing lower than the high voltage for alarm and periodically supplies the high voltage to the fence 70.

In addition, the electric fence main body 10 checks whether or not a voltage drop occurs due to contact with the fence 70 of the wild animal in a state in which a high voltage for sensing is periodically supplied, and when a voltage drop occurs as a result of the check, an alarm sound Alternatively, at least one of the warning lights may be output to drive out the wild animal approaching the fence 70.

If the voltage drop does not occur as a result of the check, the electric fence main body 10 may increase the supply period of the high voltage for the alarm. On the contrary, when the voltage drop occurs as a result of the check, the electric fence main body 10 can maintain the supply period of the high voltage for the alarm. On the other hand, when the voltage drop occurs at any point after the supply period of the alarm high voltage is increased, the electric shock main body 10 can return the increased supply period of the alarm high voltage to its original state. For example, a predetermined time for increasing the supply period of the alarm high voltage may be set between 1 hour and 6 hours, but is not limited thereto. It is possible to increase the supply period of the alarm high voltage of 0.25 seconds per second to 0.25 seconds per 1 to 10, but is not limited thereto.

The solar cell 11 converts solar energy into electrical energy and stores it in the charging unit 13. The charging unit 13 receives electric energy converted into the solar cell 11 and charges it. The pulse high voltage output unit 15 receives power from the charging unit 13 and outputs a high voltage for alarm or a high voltage for detection as a pulse type high voltage. The controller 29 determines whether the charging amount of the charging unit 13 is equal to or less than the threshold charging amount. When the determination result is greater than or equal to the threshold charging amount, the control unit 29 periodically supplies the high voltage for warning to the pulse 70 through the pulse high voltage output unit 15. On the contrary, when the determination result is less than the threshold charge amount, the control unit 29 generates the high voltage for sensing lower than the high voltage for alarm through the pulse high voltage output unit 15 and periodically supplies it to the pulse 70.

The electric fence main body 10 may further include an alarm output unit 25, an input unit 30, an output unit 40, and a pulse state output unit 50. In this case, the electric fence body 10 includes a case 12 having a rectangular box shape in which components other than the solar cell 11 are installed.

The electric fence main body 10 according to the present embodiment will be described in detail as follows.

The solar cell 11 is rotatably installed on the upper part of the case 12, and converts solar energy into electrical energy to be stored in the charging unit 13. At this time, the panel of the solar cell 11 is installed on the top of the case 12 inclined at an angle to effectively absorb solar energy from the sun, it is installed to face south. The capacity of the solar cell 11 is proportional to the number and size of cells of the panel.

The charging unit 13 is built in the case 12, and receives the electric energy converted from the solar cell 11 to charge it. In this case, the charging unit 13 may be a battery capable of charging and discharging.

The pulse high voltage output unit 15 is embedded in the case 12 and includes a pulse generator 17 and a high voltage output unit 19. The pulse generator 17 generates a pulse under the control of the controller 29 and outputs the pulse to the high voltage output unit 19. The high voltage output unit 19 amplifies the voltage supplied from the charging unit 13 according to the pulse received from the pulse generator 17 under the control of the controller 29 to output and supply the high voltage for alarm or the high voltage for detection. do. In this case, the high voltage output unit 19 includes an output terminal 21 of a positive electrode protruding out of the case 12 and a ground terminal 23 of a negative electrode. In the present embodiment, an example in which the output terminal 21 and the ground terminal 23 are provided below the case 12 is disclosed, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The output terminal 21 is connected to the fence 70. The ground terminal 23 is grounded to the ground via a plurality of ground rods.

On the other hand, the pulsed high voltage output unit 15 supplies the pulsed high voltage periodically to the pulse 70, for example, may be supplied at 0.25 second intervals per second. In addition, the pulse high voltage output unit 15 may again output the pulsed high voltage supplied for 0.25 seconds as a pulse of a predetermined cycle.

The alarm output unit 25 outputs at least one of an alarm sound or an alarm light under the control of the control unit 29. The alarm output unit 25 may be installed in the case 12 or may be installed outside the case 12 by a cable. In this case, the alarm output unit 25 may include a speaker or a lamp. For example, as the sound of the wild animal dislikes, ultrasonic waves, dog sounds, sirens, gun sounds, etc. may be used, and as flashing lights, flashing lights may be used. In this case, the alarm output unit 25 may operate under the control of the controller 29 when the sensed high voltage is supplied to the pulse 70.

The illuminance sensor 27 is embedded in the case 12 and senses the illuminance of the region where the electric fence 100 is installed and transmits the illuminance sensor 27 to the controller 29. At this time, the control unit 29 determines whether the area where the electric fence 100 is installed is daytime or nighttime with the illuminance received from the illuminance sensor 27.

The input unit 30 receives a user's selection signal and transmits it to the control unit 29. The input unit 30 may include a day / night conversion switch 31, a power on / off switch 33, and a charge confirmation button 35. Day and night changeover switch 31 is a 3-way switch that can select night, day / night and off. The power on / off switch 33 is a 2-way switch that can turn on or off the operation of the electric fence body 10. The charging confirmation button 35 is a button for checking the charging state of the charging unit 13. When the charging confirmation button 35 is pressed, the charging state of the charging unit 13 causes the battery lamp 45 of the output unit 40 to be charged. Is output via The present embodiment discloses an example in which the day / night conversion switch 31, the power on / off switch 33, and the charge confirmation button 35 are arranged in a line inside the opening / closing door 14 on the front of the case 12. However, it is not limited to this.

The output unit 40 outputs a result value according to the selection signal of the input unit 30 under the control of the control unit 29. The output unit 40 may include an operation lamp 41, a sensor lamp 43, and a battery lamp 45. The operation lamp 41 operates when the power on / off switch 33 is turned on, and in a normal state, blinks whenever a pulsed high voltage is output. When there is an abnormality in the electric fence 100, for example, when the fence 70 is in contact with the ground or a pool, the operation lamp 41 does not blink. The sensor lamp 43 indicates whether the illuminance sensor 33 is operated, and may not operate when the day / night conversion switch 31 is positioned during the day / night. In addition, the battery lamp 45 may indicate a charging state of the charging unit 13, and may be flickered when the charging unit 13 needs to be charged or replaced. In the present embodiment, the operation lamp 41, the sensor lamp 43 and the battery lamp 45 are installed in a line inside the opening and closing door 14 of the front of the case 12 and disclosed an example disposed above the input unit 30 However, it is not limited to this.

The pulse state output unit 50 detects and outputs a pulsed high voltage supplied from the high voltage output unit 19 to the pulse 70 to indicate whether the pulsed high voltage flows stably to the pulse 70. At this time, the pulse state output unit 50 includes a high voltage detection button 51, a detection unit 53, and a high voltage intensity display unit 55. The high voltage detection button 51 is a button for receiving a request for detecting a high voltage supplied from the high voltage output unit 19 to the pulse 70. The detection unit 53 detects the intensity of the high voltage output from the high voltage output unit 19 according to the selection of the high voltage detection button 51. The high voltage intensity display unit 55 displays the detected high voltage intensity. For example, a high voltage lamp, an LED, an LCD, or the like may be used as the high voltage intensity display unit 55. In this embodiment, five high voltage lamps are used as the high voltage intensity display unit 55. The five high voltage lamps can display 1,000V, 2000V, 4000V, 6000V and 8,000V sequentially, but are not limited to this.

In addition, the controller 29 performs an overall control operation of the electric fence 100. For example, if the day / night conversion switch 31 is moved toward the night while the power on / off switch 33 is turned on, the control unit 29 determines that it is night based on the illuminance detected by the illuminance sensor 27. Pulsed high voltage is output periodically. Of course, if it is determined that the daytime based on the illumination sensed by the illumination sensor 27, the control unit 29 does not output the pulsed high voltage to the pulse 70.

If the day / night switch 31 moves to day / night with the power on / off switch 33 turned on, the control unit 29 pulses with the pulse 70 regardless of the illuminance detected by the illuminance sensor 27. Type high voltage is output periodically.

When the user presses the charge confirmation button 35, the controller 29 grasps the charging state of the charging unit 13 and displays the charging state of the charging unit 13 through the battery lamp 45. For example, when the charging amount of the charging unit 13 is greater than or equal to the threshold charging amount, the controller 29 may turn on the battery lamp 45. On the other hand, when the charging amount of the charging unit 13 is less than the threshold charging amount, the controller 29 may blink the battery lamp 45. Here, the threshold charging amount may be set to a value between 30 and 60% of the total charging amount of the charging unit 13, but is not limited thereto.

In particular, the controller 29 controls the operation of the electric fence 100 according to the charging amount of the charging unit 13 as described above. That is, the control unit 29 determines whether the charging amount of the charging unit 13 is less than or equal to the threshold charging amount. When the determination result is greater than or equal to the threshold charging amount, the control unit 29 periodically supplies the pulse type high voltage for alarm generated by the power supply of the charging unit 13 to the fence 90. On the other hand, if the determination result is less than the threshold charge amount, the control unit 29 generates a pulse-type sensing high voltage lower than the high voltage for the alarm by using the power of the charging unit 13 and periodically supplies to the pulse 70.

In addition, the control unit 29 checks whether or not a voltage drop due to contact with the fence 70 of the wild animal in the state where the high voltage for sensing is periodically supplied. When the voltage drop occurs as a result of the check, the controller 29 may output at least one of the alarm sound or the alarm light through the alarm output unit 25 to drive out the wild animal approaching the fence 70.

In addition, the controller 29 again determines whether the charging amount is less than or equal to the threshold charging amount while the sensing high voltage is periodically supplied. When the judgment result is greater than or equal to the threshold charging amount, the control unit 29 periodically supplies the pulse type high voltage for alarm generated by the power supply of the charging unit 13 to the fence 70. On the other hand, if the judging result is still below the threshold charge amount, the control unit 29 maintains the supply of the high voltage for sensing to the pulse 70.

In addition, the control unit 29 checks whether a voltage drop due to contact with the fence 70 of the wild animal occurs within a predetermined time in a state where the high voltage for warning is periodically supplied. If no voltage drop occurs as a result of the check, the control unit 29 increases the supply period of the high voltage for alarm. For example, it is possible to increase the supply period of the alarm high voltage, which is 0.25 seconds per second, to 0.25 seconds per second, but is not limited thereto.

On the contrary, when the voltage drop occurs as a result of the check, the control unit 29 maintains the supply period of the high voltage for alarm. On the other hand, when a voltage drop occurs at any point after the supply period of the alarm high voltage is increased, the control unit 29 returns the extended supply period of the alarm high voltage to its original state. That is, by increasing the supply period of the high voltage for the alarm supplied to the fence 70 in the time when the wildlife is not accessible, it is possible to reduce the power consumption of the charging unit (13). Of course, if there is a wildlife approach, by maintaining the supply period of the high voltage for the alarm, it is possible to drive out the wildlife approaching the fence 70.

The operation method of the electric fence 100 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5 as follows. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a method of operating an electric fence according to an embodiment of the present invention. At this time, the power on / off switch 33 is in an on state, and the day and night conversion switch 31 is set in a state in which a pulse type high voltage can flow through the pulse 70. For example, when the day / night conversion switch 31 is set to day / night or is set to night, the place where the electric fence 100 is installed is a case where it is night.

First, in step S81, the electric fence body 10 charges the charging unit 13 with electrical energy generated from the solar cell 11. In this case, charging of the electrical energy generated by the solar cell 11 may be performed regardless of the selection signal of the input unit 30.

Next, in step S83, the electric fence main body 10 determines whether the charging amount of the charging unit 13 is less than or equal to the threshold charging amount.

When the determination result in step S83 is greater than or equal to the threshold charging amount, in step S85, the electric fence main body 10 periodically supplies the pulse type high voltage for alarm generated by the power of the charging unit 13 to the fence 70. In other words, when the charging amount of the charging unit 13 is sufficient, the electric fence main body 10 supplies the high voltage for warning periodically to the fence 70 through the pulse high voltage output unit 15. At this time, the pulse high voltage output unit 15 receives power from the charging unit 13 and outputs a high voltage for warning at a pulse type high voltage to supply the pulse 70. In this way, by supplying the high voltage for the alarm periodically to the fence 70, by supplying the high voltage for the alarm to the fence 70, the electric shock to the wild animal approaching the fence 70 to enter the fence 70 in advance. To prevent.

When the determination result in step S83 is less than the threshold charge amount, in step S87 the electric fence main body 10 generates a pulse-type high voltage for sensing lower than the alarm high voltage by using the power supply of the charging unit 13 to the fence 70 periodically. Supply. In other words, when the charging amount of the charging unit 13 is not sufficient, the electric fence main body 10 may reduce the intensity of the pulsed high voltage and supply it to the fence 70. At this time, the detection high voltage supplied to the fence 70 is sufficient pulse type high voltage that can detect whether the wild animal contacts the fence 70. Of course, the sensing high voltage may also be supplied to the pulse 70 through the pulsed high voltage output unit 15.

Next, in step S89, the electric fence main body 10 checks whether a voltage drop is generated. That is, in the state where the high voltage for sensing is periodically supplied, the electric fence body 10 checks whether a voltage drop due to contact with the fence 70 of the wild animal occurs.

If the voltage drop does not occur as a result of checking in step S89, the electric fence main body 10 performs again from the step of determining whether the charging amount of the charging unit 13 according to step S83 is less than the threshold charging amount.

When the voltage drop occurs as a result of the check in step S89, the electric fence body 10 outputs at least one of the alarm sound or the alarm light in step S91 to drive out the wild animal approaching the fence 70.

On the other hand, in the state in which the high voltage for the alarm is periodically supplied in step S85, in step S93 the electric fence body 10 checks whether a voltage drop due to contact with the fence 70 of the wildlife within a certain time.

When the voltage drop does not occur as a result of the check in step S93, the electric fence main body 10 increases the supply period of the high voltage for the alarm in step S95. By increasing the supply period of the warning high voltage, the power consumption of the charging section 13 can be reduced.

On the other hand, if the voltage drop occurs as a result of the check in step S93, the electric fence main body 10 maintains the supply cycle of the high voltage for the alarm in step S97. Moreover, if the supply period of the warning high voltage is extended, the electric fence main body 10 will return the extended supply period of the warning high voltage to a original state. In this way, when the wildlife 70 is approached by the fence 70, the approaching wildlife can be driven out by returning the supply period of the high voltage for warning to its original state.

On the other hand, the embodiments of the present invention disclosed in the specification and drawings are merely presented specific examples to aid understanding, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. In addition to the embodiments disclosed herein, it is apparent to those skilled in the art that other modifications based on the technical idea of the present invention may be implemented. For example, the present embodiment exemplifies a case in which the wild animal approaching by adjusting the intensity or period of the pulsed high voltage flowing through the pulses is not limited thereto. In other words, if there is a wild animal approaching at some point, it is more likely that the wild animal will approach again, thus increasing the intensity of the pulsed high voltage within a certain range or shortening the supply cycle of the pulsed high voltage within a certain range, thereby speeding up the wildlife. You can kick them out. In addition, the present embodiment discloses an example in which the high voltage for detection is output at a lower voltage than the high voltage for alarm. However, when supplying the high voltage for detection with a pulse, the supply period may be increased while maintaining the same level of intensity as the high voltage for alarm. have.
