DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0025] The present device is composed of a converter (1), first capacitor (2), additional capacitors (2n), traction spring (3), magnetic flux carrier cable (5) and connection coil (6), being able to contain, if necessary, one or more radiant sets (4).

[0026] The converter, represented in FIG. 3, is, in a preferential form of execution, equipped with a potentiometer (1.1) for manual adjustment of the power according to the dimensions of the surface to be protected, LED operation indicator (1.2), power outlet from the grid (1.3) and various power cables for capacitors (2) (2n) and radiant sets (4) for supplying alternating current and consequent generation of electromagnetic field.

[0027] In an exemplary assembly, as can be seen in FIG. 1, the converter (1) is arranged in the center of the web of capacitors (2) (2n), from where the magnetic flux carrier cable (5) starts connects by means of the traction spring (3) to the coil (6) arranged between the body (2.3) and the head (2.4) of the first capacitor (2).

[0028] The capacitor (2) (2n), shown in FIG. 4, is composed of a base (2.1) equipped with an orifice (2.2), on which the capacitive body (2.3) and head (2.4) are arranged.

[0029] The capacitors (2) (2n) can be fixed in the structures with the most varied dispositions. Each capacitor (2) (2n) is fixed at the desired perimeters maintaining an average spacing of 2 meters between them. Preferably, in order to guarantee greater stability, the capacitors (2) (2n) can be fixed to the structures by means of fixing pins or screws inserted in the connection hole (2.2) present in the base (2.1), as shown in FIG. 4.

[0030] For the arrangement of the first capacitor (2) on the surface to be protected, it is recommended that its base (2.1) be arranged opposite to the initial direction of the additional capacitors (2n), ensuring that the pressure exerted by the carrier cable of magnetic flux (5) is contained, keeping the capacitor (2) stabilized, as can be seen in FIGS. 5 and 6.

[0031] Similarly to the first capacitor (2), the last capacitor (2n) of the set must also be fixed with the base (2.1) arranged in the opposite direction to the electromagnetic flux carrier cable, also verifiable in FIG. 6.

[0032] After arranging the web of capacitors (2) (2n) according to the desired design, the coil (6) must be inserted into the initial capacitor (2) and connected to the spring (3) through the connection ends (3.1), establishing the electromagnetic connection between the first capacitor (2) and the last capacitor (2n) and the proper voltage adequacy between the electromagnetic flux carrier cable (5) and the coil (6), as shown in FIG. 6.

[0033] Next, the electromagnetic flux carrier cable (5) can be arranged over each capacitor (2n) with a single connection turn (5.1) clockwise, until in the last capacitor (2n), the electromagnetic flux carrier cable electromagnetic flux (5) is completely wound without leaving any residue. Both the clockwise arrangement of the connection loop (5.1) and the final winding of the cable (5) serve to ensure the best possible electromagnetic flow, as is well known.

[0034] The flow of electrical energy present in the capacitors (2) (2n), being either positive or negative, due to the symmetric rectification caused by the converter (1), generates the “spin” effect, that is, electrical oscillations that provide a rotating electromagnetic field capable of reaching up to 60 centimeters in height, this effect being fundamental to carry out the removal of birds.

[0035] The radiant set (4) has the function of directing the electromagnetic pulses to certain places from which the birds are desired, however, access is not possible through the traditional arrangement of the capacitors (2) (2n) or in that the traditional installation can present some risk of electric shock due to the proximity of the movement of people, such as in windows or doors.

[0036] For this purpose, the radiant assembly (4) preferably consists of a radiant element (4.5) with high pressure external coating, with a preferential circumference of 1.20 m, connected by means of a retention element (4.4), preferably the PG9 type connector, being fed by a connection cable (4.3) of high isolation connected to the converter (1) through one of the electromagnetic flux carrier cables (5), transporting the electromagnetic flux generated by the converter (1) to the inside the radiating element (4.5).

[0037] As seen in FIG. 2, the radiant element (4.5) has several radiant holes (4.6), preferably 1 mm, in its outer layer, providing the radiation of the electromagnetic flux. In a preferred execution model, the distance between the various holes must be at least 7 mm, due to the wavelength generated by the converter, allowing the control of the electromagnetic field flux with high efficiency, avoiding power losses.

[0038] The fixing of the radiant element (4.5) is made through the hole (4.2) in the metallic support (4.1) of the radiant set (4). The fact that the support (4.1) is metallic is fundamental, not only to provide support, but also to enable an adequate grounding of the set.

[0039] The radiant element (4.5) is made of flexible material, and can freely assume different formats, according to the area to be protected against the presence of birds, as can be seen in FIG. 2, in which the radiant element (4.5) is formed in a circle.

[0040] After fully assembled, the proposed device provides a pulsating symmetrical direct current through the converter (1) fed with a preferred nominal voltage that can vary from 90 to 235 volts, consuming an average power at full load of approximately 14 watts.

[0041] The converter (1) operates with a primary frequency of 120 hertz, and in the feedback process, this frequency can reach 30 mega Hertz, limited to the current applied in the electronic circuit, due to the arrangement of the capacitors (2) (2n), and the frequency control occurs automatically.

[0042] However, the operating power of the converter (1) must be manually regulated, via a potentiometer (1.1), according to the total desired area of protection for each type of installation, considering an output current of the electrical pulses of approximately 5 m A/h as a pulse output voltage of approximately 1.5 kV.

[0043] Because of the way this system operates, there is a process of emission of free electrons by the capacitors (2) (2n) and radiant sets (4) or metallic cables of any kind, through high-insulation cabling. These free electrons are launched omnidirectionally, reaching average heights of up to 60 centimeters.

[0044] The aforementioned flow of free electrons is responsible for keeping the birds away from the desired perimeter, as it causes a momentary discomfort that leads to flight disorientation. This is the reason why birds do not approach locations with this kind of energy.

[0045] The system that operates the device comprises the six steps below: [0046] (A) Converter (1) receives electrical energy from the grid; [0047] (B) Converter (1) adapts frequency and power to non-ionizing levels; [0048] (C) Capacitors (2) and (2n) receive energy from the converter (1); [0049] (D) Capacitors (2) and (2n) and/or radiant set (4) convert electromagnetic pulses into SPIN's; [0050] (E) Birds approaching the rotating field are affected by the SPIN's; [0051] (F) Birds move away from the rotating field and do not approach the protected area.

[0052] The SPIN's generation effect is achieved due to an LRC set, that is, inductance, through a coil (6) consisting of only one turn; resistance, through the characteristic resistance of the transport cables themselves (5); and capacitance, caused by the application of capacitors (2) (2n) in the set. This whole set is necessary to obtain the desired energy field, that is, capable of keeping the birds away.

[0053] The figures presented as well as the description provided herein do not have the power to limit the ways of implementing the system and device proposed herein, serving only as an illustrative and preferential basis for this solution. Therefore, it is possible that there are other equivalent forms that do not escape the revealed scope of protection.

[0054] This descriptive report presented a system and device that inhibits the presence of birds composed of a device that generates a directional and rotating electromagnetic flow capable of inhibiting the presence of birds due to the emission of an electromagnetic frequency that affects the orientation of the flight, forcing it to those to change route, without the emission of noise or any risk of suffering and physical damage to these birds, endowed with novelty, inventive step, descriptive sufficiency, industrial application and, consequently, covered with all the essential requirements for granting the privilege claimed.
