Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an installation for preventing animal damage to prevent damage to plants and shoots grown in a field or wilderness that can be eaten by animals, mainly deer.

In recent years, wild animals such as deer and cormorants have been bred along with the conservation of the natural environment, but the damage caused by these wild animals being eaten by vegetation and shoots, especially by herbivorous deer, is increasing. . As means for solving this problem, an apparatus for preventing damage caused by herbivores that covers a protection area with a mesh body, the mesh body is arranged in a state of being floated from the protection area via a spacer, and the mesh body is slapped. An apparatus for preventing damage caused by herbivores arranged in the state of being exposed is known (Patent Document 1).
Japanese Patent No. 3793524

  In the above-mentioned conventional technology, the mesh body is placed in a slack state, so that herbivores can eat vegetation by approaching the protected area and pressing the nose against the mesh body or by stepping on it with their feet However, since the protection area is entirely covered with a net-like body, there is a problem that enormous costs are required depending on the installation area.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems of the prior art, and prevents various animals such as herbivores and birds from getting close to plants and shoots to be protected and bred, and relatively inexpensive. Since it can be installed, it aims at providing the installation object for prevention of animal feeding damage suitable for protecting a large area of vegetation.

The means of the present invention according to claim 1 configured to solve the above-described problem is arranged substantially along the ground, in a state of traversing the plant protection area, and a frame body surrounding the plant protection area. It comprises an erection line that hangs on the frame and one or more animal threatening bodies provided on the erection line.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a frame body that is disposed substantially along the ground and surrounds the plant protection area, and a belt-like installation that hangs on the frame body so as to cross the plant protection area. And a linear threatening body that is hung on the frame body in a state of intersecting with the erected rope, and that slides with the erected rope to generate abnormal noise by swinging in response to an external force.

  And the said frame is good to arrange | position in the state spaced apart from the ground via the support material.

  The frame includes a frame made of wood, concrete, synthetic resin, or compression-solidified paper, a connecting rod that is inserted through the frame and protrudes from the end surface in the axial direction, and the connecting rod It is good to comprise in frame shape with the coupling body couple | bonded with the front end side.

  Further, an animal threatening body may be provided on the frame body.

  Further, the frame body may be provided with a housing recess that opens to the outside, and the animal repellent is housed in the collecting recess.

  Furthermore, the animal threatening body may be made of a material that exerts a threatening force upon receiving an external force such as an entering animal, wind, or light.

  The animal threatening body may be made of a material that exerts threatening power by color or smell.

The present invention has the following effects by adopting the above-described configuration.
(1) According to the first aspect of the present invention, by providing one or more animal threatening bodies on a construction line hung on a frame disposed on the ground, the animals are threatened and do not approach the plant growing area. As a result, it is possible to prevent the damage of vegetation by animals, and the configuration is simple, so that installation costs and maintenance costs can be reduced.
(2) According to the second aspect of the present invention, in the state where the vegetation protection area is crossed in a cross shape, the frame is hung with the belt-like erection rope and the line threatening body, and the wind, the external force such as the animal entering The animal can be eliminated by abnormal noise generated by the swinging linear threatening body sliding with the construction cable, and the construction is simple and the construction is easy.
(3) By installing the frame body away from the ground via the support material, the frame can be installed without leveling work even in terrain and geology such as rough terrain, sloping ground, and soft ground. In addition, it can be installed without changing the natural environment where small animals live, such as ensuring the ventilation of the ground and not hindering the movement of small animals.
(4) The frame is composed of a frame material made of wood, concrete, synthetic resin, or compression-solidified paper, a connecting rod that is inserted through the frame material and protrudes at both ends, and a connecting body that engages with the connecting rod. Therefore, the structure is simple and the strength is high, the installation work at the site is easy, and the necessary number of plant protection areas can be surrounded by connecting and extending the frame members.
(5) Since an animal threatening body is also provided on the frame, the threatening effect can be enhanced.
(6) Since the housing body is provided with a housing recess in an open state, and the animal repellent is housed in the collecting recess, not only can animals be excluded in synergy with animal threats, but also weather such as no wind or cloudy weather. Even when the animal repellent body does not function sufficiently due to the time zone such as evening, the approaching animal can be excluded.
(7) Since the animal threatening body uses materials that exert threatening power by receiving one or more external forces such as animals, wind, and light entering, various installation locations such as strong wind power and long sunshine hours are used. It is possible to select and use an animal threatening body that meets the above conditions, and to maintain a threatening effect by using a plurality of animal threatening bodies in combination.
(8) Animal threats can be threatened even when there is no wind or at night by using materials that display threats by color or odor, and by selecting and using animal threats that are effective for each animal. Can work.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 to 4 show a first embodiment. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a frame surrounding a plurality of plant growing areas A, A,... In a square shape, and the frame 1 is installed in contact with the ground G. 2, 2,...
