Embodiment Construction

[0036] With reference to the accompanying drawings, the insect trap 10 according to the present invention comprises 5 basic components:

[0037] housing 12;

[0038] cover 14;

[0039] one or more light traps 16a, b, c;

[0040] insect traps 18a, b; and

[0041] Device 20 for destroying airborne pathogens.

[0042] In the example embodiment, the frame 12 comprises a perimeter frame 12' which is hinged to a rear frame 12". Such a frame enables the light trap to be carried in an easily accessible manner as described in PCT / GB2009 / 001097 Said.

Abstract

The invention relates to an insect trap (10) and more particularly to an insect trap which has been designed to facilitate the destruction of micro-organisms thereby countering odours and mitigating against the spread of germs. The trap (10) comprises a. a housing (12); b. a cover (14); c. one or a plurality of insect attracting lights (16); and d. an insect catching means (18) and further comprises a UVC lamp which emits radiation (or other means) which is capable of destroying air-borne pathogens. The insect attractant lamps (16) heat the air which is convected as a consequence of louvered openings (26) in the cover and an opening (30) in the top (28) of the trap and circulate across the UVC lamp where the micro-organisms are killed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an insect trap, and more particularly to an insect trap designed to additionally protect against pathogens. Background technique [0002] Various types of insect traps are known. Particularly common types of traps (especially for flying insects) include insect traps (such as UV light sources) and insect traps (such as adhesive sheets or paper contained in a housing. Flying insects are attracted to the trap, passing through the opening Enter the shell and catch on the insect trap. [0003] Traps are often installed in areas where food is handled, such as kitchens and restaurants. Unfortunately, the captured insects die and decompose, so they can become a source of odor and potentially spread germs. [0004] Two Japanese patent documents disclose insect traps that solve the problem of air sterilization. [0005] JP11155455 discloses a UV insecticidal tool, which can easily dispose of insect corpses and residues. It d...
