DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0021] As an advanced pest monitoring and control technology, the automatic counting sex pheromone trapping device has been widely used in the fields of agriculture, forestry and horticulture in recent years. It attracts target pests into the trapping device by simulating the sex communication signals of pests, and then realizes the accurate monitoring and trapping of pests.
[0022] The working principle of the automatic counting sex pheromone trapping device is mainly based on the use of sex pheromones and the simulation of pest behavior. A sex pheromone is an artificially synthesized compound that can mimic the sex pheromones released by sexually mature individuals of pests, attracting opposite-sex pests to come and mate. The device releases the sex pheromone to introduce the target pests into the trapping area, and then captures them through a specific trapping mechanism.
[0023] Synthesis and Release of Sex Pheromone
[0024] The synthesis of sex pheromones is usually based on the chemical structure of pest sex pheromones. Researchers determine the chemical composition and ratio of pest sex pheromones through chemical analysis, and then use chemical synthesis techniques to artificially synthesize these compounds. Sex pheromones usually exist in liquid or solid form and are slowly released into the environment through specific release devices.
[0025] Trapping Mechanism
[0026] The trapping mechanism is the core part of the automatic counting sex pheromone trapping device. It usually includes one or more traps, and each trap is equipped with a lure core inside, and the lure core is filled with sex pheromone. The design of the trap usually takes into account the behavior habits and activity patterns of pests to ensure that pests can enter and be trapped smoothly.
[0027] The automatic counting sex pheromone trapping device also has an automatic counting function, which can record the number of pests entering the trapping device in real time.

[0058] Reference Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic counting type sex attractant trapping device, including a trapping box 1, a plurality of first through holes 2 are evenly spaced on the top side wall of the trapping box 1, a lure core is provided on the top of the trapping box 1, a top guide plate 3 is provided in the trapping box 1, the top guide plate 3 is located below the first through hole 2, a gap 4 is provided between the top guide plate 3 and the lure core, a collecting box 5 is provided at the bottom of the trapping box 1, the collecting box 5 is connected to the trapping box 1, a bottom guide mechanism is provided in the collecting box 5, a plurality of counting mechanisms are evenly spaced in the circumferential direction of the bottom of the trapping box 1, the counting mechanism is located below the top guide plate 3, the counting mechanism includes an infrared sensor 6 transmission-connected to the inner wall of the trapping box 1, a driving part is provided between the infrared sensor 6 and the inner wall of the trapping box 1, and an image recognition module 7 is provided below the infrared sensor 6.
[0059] When pests enter the trapping box 1 through the first through hole 2, the number of insects entering is preliminarily counted by the number of times the infrared light beam is blocked. The image recognition module is equipped with a high-definition camera and an edge computing chip, and uses an AI algorithm to identify the insect species and correct the error of infrared counting. Kalman filtering or Bayesian network algorithm is used to fuse infrared signals with image data to improve counting accuracy, avoid errors caused by insect overlap or escape, and update insect data in real time through remote transmission.
[0060] For a further optimized solution, the driving part includes a connection box 8 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the trapping box 1. A first motor 9 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom surface of the connection box 8. One end of a lead screw 10 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor 9, and the other end of the lead screw 10 is rotatably connected to the inner top surface of the connection box 8. A first sliding groove 11 is provided on one side of the connection box 8 away from the trapping box 1. A first connecting plate 12 is slidably connected in the first sliding groove 11. One end of the first connecting plate 12 extends into the connection box 8 and is threadedly connected to the lead screw 10. The end of the first connecting plate 12 away from the connection box 8 is fixedly connected to the infrared sensor 6.
[0061] The infrared sensor 6 moves vertically through the driving part to cover the flight paths of insect bodies at different heights. According to the environmental temperature and humidity or the volume of target pests (such as the difference between Cnaphalocrocis medinalis and Monochamus alternatus), the first motor 9 drives the lead screw 10 to adjust the height of the infrared sensor 6 to match the flight trajectory of the insect body. The adaptive adjustment can cover a pest size range of 3 - 18 mm, ensuring that the counting mechanism is always in the best detection position and reducing the missed detection rate.
[0062] For a further optimized solution, a second through hole 13 is provided at the center of the top surface of the trapping box 1, and the lure core is arranged in the second through hole 13. The lure core includes a first connection seat 14 arranged on the top surface of the trapping box 1. A first connection column 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the first connection seat 14. The first connection column 15 is slidably connected to the second through hole 13. The first connection column 15 is hollow, and a plurality of third through holes 16 are provided on the side wall of the first connection column 15.

[0063] For a further optimized solution, first grooves 17 are symmetrically arranged on the top surface of the trapping box 1, and the first grooves 17 are located outside the second through hole 13. First protrusions 18 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the first connection seat 14, and the first protrusions 18 are adapted to the adjacent first grooves 17.
[0064] The sex pheromone is slowly released evenly through the third through holes 16.

A bottom guiding mechanism is arranged on the top surface of the light source 20.
[0066] For a further optimized solution, the bottom guiding mechanism includes a second connection column 21 fixedly connected to the top surface of the light source 20. Bottom guiding plates 22 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the top surface of the second connection column 21.
[0067] For a further optimized solution, a blower 23 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the second connection column 21, and the blower 23 is located below the lure core.
[0068] For a further optimized solution, the top guide plate 3 is made of transparent PC material and its surface is coated with a hydrophobic coating.

[0070] Based on the phototaxis of the insects, a light source 20 is arranged at the bottom of the collection box 5. At the same time, the inner wall of the collection box 5 simulates the fluorescent pattern of female insects through the light source 20 to attract male insects to gather at the bottom of the collection box 5; the fan 23 generates a downward air flow to accelerate the fall of pests and cooperates with the high-viscosity colloid to prevent escape. Combining with the liquid 24 for killing (such as soapy water) realizes dual physical and chemical killing. The hydrophobic coating reduces the residue of insects and extends the cleaning cycle; the fluorescent female insect pattern improves the target attraction rate and reduces the non-target interference rate.
[0071] For a further optimized solution, a liquid 24 is stored at the inner bottom of the collection box 5, and the liquid level of the liquid 24 is below the light source 20.
