Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of blueberry cultivation technology, specifically to an insect-attracting and insect-killing device for blueberry cultivation. Background Technology

[0002] Pests are a common problem in blueberry cultivation, mainly found in the flowers and leaves. A large influx of pests not only damages the plant but can also breed pathogens and produce toxins that negatively impact blueberry growth. Therefore, upon discovering these pests, timely pruning is necessary, and agricultural pesticides, such as those specifically formulated to kill these pests, should be sprayed on the affected areas.

[0003] Pests often congregate on seedlings, tender leaves, young stems, and leaves near the ground. Pesticide spraying mostly only reaches the upper branches and leaves of blueberry plants, failing to effectively control pests in the root and stem areas. Furthermore, pesticide residues remain on the plants, inevitably leading to pesticide contamination in the resulting blueberries. To avoid this residue, modern blueberry cultivation partially replaces pesticide spraying with insect-attracting lamps. However, insect-attracting lamps have limited effectiveness compared to pesticide spraying, and they are only effective in luring and killing pests within a small surrounding area. The further the blueberry plant is from the lamp, the less effective the treatment becomes. To ensure the effectiveness of the lamps, multiple sets must be densely placed within the planting area, significantly increasing cultivation costs.

[0004] Based on this, the present invention designs an insect-attracting and insect-killing device for blueberry cultivation to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an insect-attracting and pest-killing device for blueberry cultivation. This portable insect-attracting device can target individual blueberry plants for pest control, specifically removing insect eggs from the roots of blueberry plants, thereby improving the quality of pest control for blueberry plants.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A pest-attracting and insect-killing device for blueberry cultivation includes a tracked moving device and an image acquisition unit disposed at the front end of the tracked moving device. The tracked moving device is characterized in that it can move between rows in the blueberry planting field, and a cleaning component is installed above the tracked moving device, the cleaning component comprising:

[0008] An insect-attracting component is disposed above the tracked moving device and is divided into an upper insect-attracting component and a lower insect-killing component. The insect-attracting component can emit yellow and orange light.

[0009] An outer protective cover is slidably fitted onto the outside of the insect-attracting component of the insect-attracting assembly. When the outer protective cover moves down and touches the surface of the insect-killing component at the bottom of the insect-attracting assembly, the outer protective cover and the insect-attracting component at the top of the insect-attracting assembly form a closed annular space, and the insect-killing component communicates with the annular space.

[0010] An adhesive roller is located on both sides of the lower end of the outer protective cover and can move left and right relative to the outer protective cover to extend into the edge of the root system of blueberry plants planted on the ridges on both sides of the tracked moving device. The surface of the adhesive roller is adhesive and can adhere insect eggs on the roots of the blueberry plants to the adhesive roller.

[0011] Preferably, the insect-attracting component includes an insect-attracting element and an insect-killing element. The insect-attracting element includes an inner transparent element. An installation chamber is provided at the lower end of the inner transparent element. Multiple sets of insect-attracting lamps are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the installation chamber. The insect-attracting lamps can emit light that can attract pests through the inner transparent element. A telescopic rod is fixedly installed at the upper end of the inner transparent element. The free end of the telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the outer protective cover.

[0012] Preferably, the insecticidal component includes a storage base, an upper connecting plate is fixedly installed on the upper end of the storage base, the upper surface of the upper connecting plate is fixedly connected to the inner transparent component, and multiple sets of through holes are opened on the upper connecting plate at the position between the outer protective cover and the inner transparent component, and the storage base stores insecticidal gas.

[0013] Preferably, an embedding groove is provided on the outer side of the upper connecting plate. Multiple sets of limiting rods are slidably connected in the embedding groove. The upper end of the limiting rod is above the upper connecting plate and is fixedly installed with an upper pressure plate. The lower end of the limiting rod is inside the storage seat and is fixedly installed with a lower pressure plate. A limiting spring is provided between the upper pressure plate and the embedding groove. When the outer protective cover moves down, it can squeeze the upper pressure plate. After the upper pressure plate moves down, it can be perfectly embedded in the embedding groove. After the outer protective cover moves up, the lower pressure plate can automatically abut against the lower end of the through hole under the action of the limiting spring.

[0014] Preferably, an exhaust fan is rotatably mounted inside the lower part of the storage base, and a rotating motor is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the storage base, with the output end of the rotating motor fixedly connected to the exhaust fan.

[0015] Preferably, the lower end of the outer protective cover is symmetrically connected to a limiting member, the adhesive roller is slidably connected within the limiting member, a toothed plate is fixedly installed between the two ends of the adhesive roller, the toothed plate is slidably connected to the limiting member, and a drive gear is rotatably installed at the lower end of the outer protective cover, the drive gear is slidably connected to the toothed plate.

[0016] Preferably, a bidirectional motor is fixedly installed at the lower end of the outer protective cover, and the output end of the bidirectional motor is fixedly connected to the drive gear.

[0017] Preferably, a control motherboard is fixedly installed below the image acquisition device, and an image processor is provided inside the control motherboard. The image processor is capable of analyzing and processing the image information collected by the image acquisition device.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0019] 1. The device of this invention is driven by a tracked moving device to move linearly between blueberry plant rows, so that the device approaches each group of blueberry plants in turn. After each approach, the device stops moving, the outer protective cover rises to expose the insect-attracting element on the upper part of the insect-attracting component. The insect-attracting element emits light to attract pests to the insect-attracting element. After a certain period of time, the insect-attracting element can attract pests from the edge blueberry plants to approach, and then drive the outer protective cover to move down quickly, so that the outer protective cover and the insect-attracting element on the upper part of the insect-attracting component form a ring-shaped sealed space. The attracted pests are locked in this ring-shaped sealed space. At this time, the downward movement of the outer protective cover also causes the insecticidal gas in the insecticidal element at the lower part of the insect-attracting component to overflow into the ring-shaped sealed space, quickly killing the attracted pests and avoiding direct contact between the sprayed harmful gas and the blueberry plants, thus avoiding direct contact between the blueberry plants and the insecticide.

[0020] 2. While this device attracts and kills adult larvae near the blueberry plant, the adhesion roller extends from the left or right side of the device, bringing one end of the roller close to the blueberry plant. Based on the data collected from the screen, the device position is adjusted so that the adhesion roller is close to the side wall of the blueberry plant's root system. The adhesion roller adheres to the surface of the blueberry plant's root system and moves up and down with the outer protective cover, allowing it to move up and down on the surface of the blueberry plant's root system. This removes the insect eggs on the blueberry plant's root system, transferring the eggs from the blueberry plant to the adhesion roller, thus achieving the cleaning of insect eggs on the blueberry plant.

[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-6 The present invention provides a technical solution:

[0032] A pest-attracting and insect-killing device for blueberry cultivation includes a tracked mobile device 1 and an image acquisition unit 11 installed at the front end of the tracked mobile device 1. The tracked mobile device 1 is equipped with an intelligent control system and can autonomously adjust its position in multiple directions based on visual signals. The tracked mobile device 1 can move between blueberry planting rows. A cleaning component is installed on the top of the tracked mobile device 1 via a mounting frame. The cleaning component includes:

[0033] The insect-attracting component is located above the tracked moving device 1 and is divided into an upper insect-attracting component and a lower insect-killing component. The insect-attracting component can emit yellow and orange light.

[0034] The outer protective cover 2 is slidably sleeved on the insect attracting component of the insect attracting component. When the outer protective cover 2 moves down and touches the surface of the insect killing component at the bottom of the insect attracting component, the outer protective cover 2 and the insect attracting component at the top of the insect attracting component form a closed annular space, and the harmful gas in the insect killing component can automatically enter the closed annular space.

[0035] The adhesive roller 6 is located on both sides of the lower end of the outer protective cover 2 and can move left and right relative to the outer protective cover 2 so as to reach into the edge of the root system of the blueberry plants planted on the ridges on both sides of the tracked moving device 1. The surface of the adhesive roller 6 has adhesive properties so as to adhere the insect eggs on the roots of the blueberry plants to the adhesive roller 6.

[0036] This invention utilizes a tracked moving device 1 to move between rows of blueberry plants, allowing it to approach each group of blueberry plants sequentially. After each approach, the device stops moving, and the outer protective cover 2 rises to expose the insect-attracting element at the top of the attracting component. This element emits light to attract pests. After a certain period, the attracting element attracts almost all pests on the edge of the blueberry plants. Then, the outer protective cover 2 is driven to quickly descend, forming a sealed annular space with the insect-attracting element at the top of the attracting component. The attracted pests are locked within this sealed annular space. Simultaneously, the descent of the outer protective cover 2 causes the insecticidal gas in the insecticidal element at the bottom of the attracting component to overflow into the sealed annular space, rapidly killing the attracted pests and preventing direct contact between harmful gases and the blueberry plants, thus avoiding direct contact with pesticides. While the device approaches the blueberry plants to attract and kill adult larvae, an adhesion roller 6 extends from the device to the left or right, bringing one end of the adhesion roller 6 close to the blueberry plant (e.g., ...). Figure 6 As shown, based on the data from the image acquisition device 11, the device position is adjusted so that the adhesion roller 6 is close to the side wall of the blueberry plant root system. The adhesion roller 6 adheres to the surface of the blueberry plant root system and moves up and down with the outer protective cover 2, thereby allowing the adhesion roller 6 to move up and down on the surface of the blueberry plant root system, thereby removing insect eggs on the blueberry plant root system and transferring the insect eggs from the blueberry plant to the adhesion roller 6, thus cleaning the insect eggs on the blueberry plant and improving the insecticidal effect.

[0037] The insect-attracting component includes an insect-attracting element and an insect-killing element. The insect-attracting element includes an inner transparent element 4. An installation chamber is provided at the lower end of the inner transparent element 4. Multiple sets of insect-attracting lamps 17 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the installation chamber. The insect-attracting lamps 17 can emit light that can attract pests through the inner transparent element 4. A telescopic rod 16 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the inner transparent element 4. The telescopic rod 16 is an electric telescopic rod and is equipped with a time relay to control its interval action. The free end of the telescopic rod 16 is fixedly connected to the outer protective cover 2. When the device stops moving, the time relay controls the telescopic rod 16 to extend first. After the preset time ends, the telescopic rod 16 shortens to its initial state. The extension of the telescopic rod 16 causes the outer protective cover 2 to move upward, exposing the inner transparent part 4, so that the insect-attracting lamp 17 inside the inner transparent part 4 can be exposed to the pests' field of vision, thereby attracting the pests to approach the inner transparent part 4. Within the preset time, a certain amount of pests accumulate on the surface of the inner transparent part 4. Under the action of the telescopic rod 16, the outer protective cover 2 moves downward rapidly, sealing the accumulated pests in the closed annular space formed by the outer protective cover 2 and the inner transparent part 4.

[0038] The insecticidal component includes a storage base 3, with an upper connecting plate 15 fixedly mounted on its upper end. The upper surface of the upper connecting plate 15 is fixedly connected to the inner transparent component 4. Multiple sets of through holes 10 are formed on the upper connecting plate 15 at positions corresponding to the area between the outer protective cover 2 and the inner transparent component 4. The storage base 3 stores insecticidal gas. The insecticidal gas contained within the storage base 3 can overflow to the outside of the storage base 3 through the through holes 10.

[0039] The upper connecting plate 15 has an embedding groove 14 on its outer side. Multiple sets of limiting rods 12 are slidably connected in the embedding groove 14. The upper end of the limiting rod 12 is above the upper connecting plate 15 and is fixedly installed with an upper pressure plate 9. The lower end of the limiting rod 12 is inside the storage seat 3 and is fixedly installed with a lower pressure plate 19. A limiting spring 13 is provided between the upper pressure plate 9 and the embedding groove 14. When the outer protective cover 2 moves down, it can squeeze the upper pressure plate 9. After the upper pressure plate 9 moves down, it can be perfectly embedded in the embedding groove 14. After the outer protective cover 2 moves up, the lower pressure plate 19 can automatically abut against the lower end of the through hole 10 under the action of the limiting spring 13. The outer protective cover 2 moves down and squeezes the upper pressure plate 9, causing the upper pressure plate 9 to be embedded in the embedding groove 14. The upper pressure plate 9 moves down and drives the lower pressure plate 19 to move down through the limiting rod 12, thereby eliminating the blocking effect of the lower pressure plate 19 on the through hole 10, so that the gas in the storage seat 3 can enter the sealed annular space through the through hole 10. After the outer protective cover 2 moves up, the squeezing effect on the upper pressure plate 9 disappears. Under the action of the limiting spring 13, the lower pressure plate 19 automatically abuts against the lower surface of the upper connecting plate 15 to block the through hole 10, thereby limiting the gas overflow in the storage seat 3.

[0040] The storage base 3 has a ventilation fan 18 rotatably mounted inside its lower end, and a rotating motor is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the storage base 3. The output end of the rotating motor is fixedly connected to the ventilation fan 18. The ventilation fan 18 assists in the exhaust and intake of gas within the storage base 3.

[0041] The lower end of the outer protective cover 2 is symmetrically connected to a limiting member 7. The adhesion roller 6 is slidably connected within the limiting member 7. A toothed plate 5 is fixedly installed between the two ends of the adhesion roller 6, and the toothed plate 5 is slidably connected to the limiting member 7. A drive gear 8 is rotatably installed at the lower end of the outer protective cover 2, and the drive gear 8 is slidably connected to the toothed plate 5. The rotation of the drive gear 8 interacts with the toothed plate 5, thereby driving one end of the adhesion roller 6 away from the tracked moving device 1 and closer to the blueberry plant, thus driving the adhesion roller 6 closer to the surface of the blueberry plant.

[0042] The lower end of the outer protective cover 2 is fixedly equipped with a bidirectional motor, and the output end of the bidirectional motor is fixedly connected to the drive gear 8. The bidirectional motor drives the drive gear 8 to rotate. The forward rotation of the bidirectional motor drives the drive gear 8 to move the adhesion roller 6 to the left, and the reverse rotation of the bidirectional motor drives the drive gear 8 to move the adhesion roller 6 to the right.

[0043] A control motherboard is fixedly installed below the image acquisition unit 11. The control motherboard contains an image processor, which analyzes and processes the image information collected by the image acquisition unit 11. The image acquisition unit 11 captures images from the front and left / right sides of the device. The front image clarifies the device's movement direction, while the left / right images determine the position of the blueberry plants, facilitating the determination of the device's stopping position.
