Description

Flying vehicle with bird repellent device

The present invention relates to a flying vehicle, and more particularly to a flying vehicle having a bird repelling device.

With the increase in income and advances in technology, air transport has become more and more frequent and more and more busy, and the number of damages caused by Bird-aircraft collision has increased year by year.

The so-called bird strike refers to the impact of birds and aircraft, and bird strikes will not only cause damage to the aircraft, but also cause air crashes. For example, in June 2006, an F-5F fighter plane was suspected to have been hit by a bird and crashed in Taibao City, Chiayi County, causing one death and one serious injury. According to statistics, the number of people killed by bird strikes has exceeded 400, and the related losses are more than $1.2 billion.

In order to avoid the occurrence of bird strikes, the global airports have adopted corresponding bird-removing measures. Among them, methods such as firecracker drive, gun hunting and natural enemy hunting are more common.

The firecracker is driven by the sound of the firecracker and the shock wave to achieve the effect of driving the birds. Although the driving effect is good, the sound and shock of the firecracker explosion will also affect the tranquility of the surrounding residents; the gun hunting directly kills the birds, not only the danger High and there is a possibility of violating animal conservation; natural enemy hunting is generally to train hawks to hunt other birds, but the breeding and training of hawks is not easy and costly.

In order to improve the above shortcomings, the relevant industry has developed a new patented technology such as the "Repellent Device" of the Republic of China Bulletin No. M328784, which uses directional ultrasonic waves that are inaudible to humans and is transmitted through a nonlinear medium in the air to be restored to birds. The sound waves produce a bio-resonance effect, causing the bird's eardrum or auditory nerve to cause non-fatal pain, and achieve the purpose of deterrence and repellent.

However, regardless of the above-mentioned method of driving birds, it is limited to passively driving birds around the airport. That is to say, if the aircraft is out of the airport range, or the aircraft has not entered the airport, it will lose the role of preventing bird strikes. Therefore, how to make the aircraft It is still a major issue to improve bird safety by continuously driving birds to prevent bird strikes outside the airport.

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a flying vehicle having a bird repelling device that actively drives birds to enhance flight safety.

Accordingly, the present invention has a flying vehicle for a bird repelling device, comprising a body, and at least one bird repelling device detachably mounted to the body.

The bird repeller device includes a base detachably disposed on the body, a light source generator mounted to the base and controllably emitting a directional light beam, and being mounted to the base and controllable An ultrasonic generator that emits ultrasonic waves that humans cannot hear.

The invention has the beneficial effects that the flying vehicle is a directional light beam emitted by the light source generator of the bird repeller device, and the ultrasonic wave generated by the ultrasonic wave generator to actively deter and drive away the birds. Effectively avoid the occurrence of bird strikes and improve the safety of flight.

The above and other technical contents, features and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the invention.

Referring to Figure 1, a first preferred embodiment of a flying vehicle 2 having a bird repellent device of the present invention includes a body 21 and a bird repelling device 22 removably mounted to the body 21. In the preferred embodiment, the flying vehicle 2 is a fighter.

The bird repelling device 22 includes a base 221 detachably mounted on the belly 211 of the body 21, a light source generator 222 mounted on the base 221 and controllably emitting a directional light beam, and a An ultrasonic generator 223 is mounted to the base 221 and controllably emits ultrasonic waves that are inaudible to humans. The light source generator 222 is selected from a laser or a light emitting diode.

In this embodiment, the light source generator 222 is a low-power laser, and the ultrasonic generator 223 can automatically scan the frequency conversion and emit an ultrasonic wave of 16 kHz to 42 kHz, and the pedestal 221 is hollow. The light source generator 222 and the ultrasonic generator 223 are mounted in the susceptor 221 .

The low-power laser has a long distance and a direct and quiet bird-repelling effect. When the laser light is shining on the bird, it will form a strong contrast with the surrounding light. If the bird's eye is illuminated, it will affect the bird's vision and cause the bird to be scared. avoid.

The ultrasonic generator 223 utilizes ultrasonic waves that are inaudible to humans, causing a bird's eardrum or auditory nerve to cause non-fatal pain to deter and drive away birds.

The directional light beam emitted by the light source generator 222 of the bird repelling device 22 mounted on the body 21 and the ultrasonic wave generated by the ultrasonic generator 223 can actively deter and drive away birds, so when When the flight vehicle 2 is flying outside the airport, it can still effectively prevent the occurrence of bird strikes to improve flight safety.

In addition, since the light source generator 222 and the ultrasonic generator 223 are mounted on the base 221, and the base 221 is detachably disposed on the body 21, the body 21 and the bird-removing device are 22 can be repaired and replaced separately, which not only makes the overall maintenance more convenient, but also does not affect the established flight arrangements.

Referring to FIG. 2, a second preferred embodiment of the flying carrier 2 having the bird repelling device of the present invention is substantially similar to the first preferred embodiment. The difference is that the flying vehicle 2 is a passenger aircraft. The flying carrier 2 includes two bird repelling devices 22, which are respectively detachably disposed on the wings 212 on both sides of the body 21, and each of the bird repelling devices 22 further includes a The base 221 is provided with a power supply 224 for supplying power required by the light source generator 222 and the ultrasonic generator 223.

Since the present embodiment is substantially the same as the first preferred embodiment, the light source generator 222 and the ultrasonic generation are provided by the power supply 224, except that the same effects as the first preferred embodiment can be achieved. The power required by the device 223 can reduce the power load on the flying vehicle 2, and the design of the two-bird device 22, when one of the bird-repelling devices 22 fails, the other bird-removing device 22 can continue to operate to enhance Actively deter and drive away the effects of birds.

In summary, the flying carrier 2 having the bird repelling device of the present invention is a directional light beam emitted by the light source generator 222 of the bird repelling device 22, and the ultrasonic wave generated by the ultrasonic wave generator 223, Actively deterring and driving away birds, effectively avoiding the occurrence of bird strikes to improve flight safety, it is indeed possible to achieve the object of the present invention.

The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the scope of the invention is not limited thereto, that is, the simple equivalent changes and modifications made by the scope of the invention and the description of the invention are All remain within the scope of the invention patent.
