BIRD PRESENCE INHIBITOR DEVICE AND RESPECTIVE SYSTEM

Device and system for inhibiting the presence of birds composed of a directional and rotating electromagnetic flow generator capable of inhibiting the presence of birds due to the emission of a field that affects the birds, forcing them to change route, without the emission of noise or any risk of suffering and physical damage to these birds. It consists of a converter, first capacitor, additional capacitors, traction spring, magnetic flux carrier cable and connection coil, which may contain, if necessary, one or more radiant sets. Because of the way the converter operates, a process of generating rotating field (SPIN's) occurs, due to the presence of all the elements involved, which are emitted through the capacitors or radiant sets. Such SPIN's are a result of the elements involved, being responsible for keeping birds away from the desired perimeter, as it affects them.
