PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a bird damage-preventing device, which can effectively prevent bird damage by raising a pair of fixed support tools in a required section of an aerial line oppositely to each other, laying a bird damage preventing wire therebetween through intermediate support tools, and properly adjusting the tension of the laid bird damage preventing wire, when it is loosened or sagged, to regularly prevent wild birds from staying on the aerial line.SOLUTION: The bird damage-preventing device 1 includes: a pair of fixed support tools 2a, 2b to be mounted in a raised manner in a required section of an aerial line 36 erected between power poles a bird damage preventing wire 3 to be laid between the pair of fixed support tools 2a, 2b in such a manner as to be spaced upward from the aerial line 36 and intermediate support tools 4a, 4b to be freely attached at predetermined intervals along the bird damage preventing wire 3 and the aerial line 36. An aerial line grasping portion 5 is provided at a lower part pf each of the fixed support tools 2a, 2b, and a take-up bobbin 17 for the bird damage preventing wire, which is provided with a reverse rotation preventing means 20, is disposed on the grasping portion 5.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】本発明は、架空線の所要区間に一対の固定支持具を対向状に起立せしめると共、中間支持具を介して鳥害防止線を張設し、張設鳥害防止線に緩みや弛みを生じた場合にはその張力を適正に調整せしめ、常に架空線に対する野鳥の留まるのを防止して鳥害を有効に防止せしめることが出来る、鳥害防止器具、及びその取付け方法を提供する。【解決手段】電柱間に架設された架空線36の所要区間に起立状に取付け自在とされた一対の固定支持具2a・2bと、該一対の固定支持具2a・2b間において架空線36の上方に離隔状に張設自在とされた鳥害防止線3と、該鳥害防止線3と架空線36とに沿って所定間隔毎に取付け自在とされた中間支持具4a・4bとよりなる鳥害防止器具1であって、上記固定支持具2a・2bは下部に架空線用把持部5が設けられると共に、該把持部5上には逆回転防止手段20を備えた鳥害防止線用巻取りボビン17が設けられている。【選択図】図1
