Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pest control technology, specifically to an instrument and method for capturing mosquitoes carrying RNA viruses. Background Technology

[0002] Every year in my country, people contract dengue fever and other diseases from mosquito bites. The probability of detecting dengue fever and other viruses in live mosquitoes is extremely low. Even live mosquitoes captured in epidemic areas rarely test positive for these viruses. To address this, relevant technicians have developed mosquito capture and detection equipment. For example, Chinese utility model patent CN202323625503.1 discloses a fully automatic continuous insect capture and monitoring device. It includes a main body with an inner chamber inside. Both the main body and the inner chamber have insect inlets that connect to the outside. Insect attractants are placed at the insect inlets. The inner chamber contains a camera, a baffle, and a negative pressure blower. Below the baffle, there is an insect collection plate that rises, falls, flips, and / or vibrates. The insect collection plate moves away from or near the baffle when rising and falls, and cleans the insects on it when flipping and / or vibrating. A network control board is installed on the main body or the inner chamber. The aforementioned equipment enables continuous insect capture and monitoring, as well as remote information identification and data calculation. Furthermore, the insect collection tray can be reused without affecting the subsequent monitoring setup. However, RNA viruses carried by live mosquitoes are extremely prone to degradation or disappearance; live mosquitoes vanish instantly upon death, making them undetectable. Additionally, reusable insect collection trays can affect the accuracy of RNA virus detection. Therefore, further improvements are necessary. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention aims to provide an instrument and method for capturing mosquitoes carrying RNA viruses, thereby overcoming the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0004] An instrument designed for this purpose to capture mosquitoes carrying RNA viruses includes a main body, on which are mounted a control chip, a mosquito chamber, a mosquito preservation box, a GPS communication module, a power supply, and an environmental information sensor group. The mosquito chamber is equipped with a mosquito attractant, a camera, and a fan group. The power supply is electrically connected to the control chip, which is electrically connected to the GPS communication module, the environmental information sensor group, the camera, and the fan group. The mosquito preservation box contains a replaceable bottle containing an RNA preservation solution, which is connected to the mosquito chamber.

[0005] The mosquito compartment is also equipped with an infrared sensor. The fan assembly includes an upper fan and a lower fan, which are arranged vertically and are respectively installed inside the mosquito compartment. The control chip is electrically connected to the upper fan, the lower fan, and the infrared sensor.

[0006] The mosquito compartment is also equipped with a flap, which separates an upper compartment and a lower compartment. The control chip is electrically connected to the flap. The flap flips inside the mosquito compartment under the control of the control chip. The upper fan rotates inside the upper compartment under the control of the control chip, and the lower fan rotates inside the lower compartment under the control of the control chip.

[0007] The mosquito chamber has a mosquito inlet at the top, the mosquito attractant is placed on the mosquito inlet, the infrared sensor is placed inside the upper chamber and senses the mosquitoes inside the upper chamber under the control of the control chip, and the camera is placed inside the upper chamber and takes pictures of the mosquitoes inside the upper chamber under the control of the control chip.

[0008] The bottom of the mosquito storage compartment is connected to a connecting pipe, the end of which extends into the mosquito storage box and is connected to the bottle body. The connecting pipe is provided with a dirt-collecting bend.

[0009] The mosquito storage box is equipped with a lifting turntable. Several bottles are arranged in a ring on the lifting turntable. The control chip is electrically connected to the lifting turntable. The lifting turntable is raised, lowered, and rotated within the mosquito storage box under the control of the control chip. During the raising and lowering and rotation, the lifting turntable drives several bottles to follow the raising and lowering and rotation, so that the bottles can be replaced and connected to the connecting pipe.

[0010] The mosquito storage box is also equipped with a cooler and an ultrasonic grinder. The control chip is electrically connected to the cooler and the ultrasonic grinder respectively. The cooler generates cold air towards the mosquito storage box under the control of the control chip, and the ultrasonic grinder kills the mosquitoes in the bottle by ultrasonic grinding under the control of the control chip.

[0011] The main body is provided with a top cover, which covers the top of the main body. The environmental information sensor group includes a temperature and humidity sensor and a wind speed sensor. The control chip is electrically connected to the temperature and humidity sensor and the wind speed sensor respectively. The temperature and humidity sensor is set on the top cover and senses the temperature and humidity of the environment in which the main body is located through the control of the control chip. The wind speed sensor is set on the top cover and senses the wind speed of the environment in which the main body is located through the control of the control chip. The GPS communication module is set on the outer wall of the main body and realizes positioning and remote communication through the control of the control chip.

[0012] The driving power supply provides operating power to the control chip through the control of the control chip. The driving power supply is an AC battery, and the main body is provided with a power cord corresponding to the AC battery. Alternatively, the driving power supply is a solar cell, and the top cover is provided with a solar charging panel corresponding to the solar cell.

[0013] A method for capturing mosquitoes carrying RNA viruses, characterized by comprising a cloud database, a statistical display module, and the aforementioned instrument for capturing mosquitoes carrying RNA viruses.

[0014] The instrument uses an insect attractant to lure mosquitoes into the mosquito chamber through the inlet. When the infrared sensor detects mosquitoes entering the mosquito chamber, the upper fan starts and blows the mosquitoes into the chamber for capture. The camera photographs the mosquitoes in the chamber and uploads the images to the cloud database via the GPS communication module. Then, the flip plate flips, the lower fan starts, and the mosquitoes in the chamber are blown into the bottle through the connecting tube. The RNA virus carried by the mosquitoes is preserved in RNA preservation fluid. At the same time, the ultrasonic grinder ultrasonically grinds and kills the mosquitoes in the bottle. When a certain number of mosquitoes accumulate in the bottle, the lifting turntable descends and drives the old bottle to separate from the connecting tube. The lifting turntable then rotates and drives the mouth of the new bottle to align with the connecting tube. The lifting turntable then rises and drives the mouth of the new bottle to interlock with the connecting tube, thus completing the automatic replacement of the bottle and collecting mosquito samples again.

[0015] The cloud database has a storage module and a recognition module. The storage module stores images of different types of mosquitoes, forming an original dataset. The recognition module uses an improved AI deep learning algorithm to automatically read the original dataset and uses the large dataset to classify and train mosquito features. Before training, the recognition module uses image segmentation and / or random rotation to enhance the data. When the recognition module receives a new image from the instrument, it also uses image segmentation to enhance the data of the new image, calls the pre-training results for AI recognition, counts the types and numbers of mosquitoes after recognition, and then sends the recognized images and classification information back to the storage module for storage.

[0016] The statistical display module communicates with the cloud database and automatically reads the stored information of the cloud database. Based on the stored information of the cloud database, it automatically calculates and displays the number of mosquitoes in the environment where the instrument is located, so that each sample has a certain number of target mosquitoes.

[0017] This invention, through structural improvements and the combination of a mosquito attractant and a fan assembly, achieves continuous mosquito capture while maintaining mosquito activity. A camera photographs the mosquitoes, and a GPS communication module transmits the high-resolution images to a cloud database. The cloud database identifies mosquito characteristics in the images, statistically analyzes the species and quantity of mosquitoes, and stores the identified images and classification information for user viewing. Furthermore, the captured live mosquitoes are automatically collected in a bottle containing RNA preservation fluid, effectively preserving the RNA virus carried by the mosquitoes. This provides assurance for RNA virus detection and better prevents the spread of diseases such as dengue fever. The bottle is automatically replaced after collecting a certain number of mosquitoes to avoid reuse affecting the accuracy of RNA virus detection, thus accurately determining the proportion of RNA virus contained in the mosquitoes.

[0019] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the combination of the instrument, cloud database, and statistical data display module according to an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0020] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be practiced in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 This instrument for capturing mosquitoes carrying RNA viruses includes a main body 5, which is equipped with a control chip 16, a mosquito chamber 22, a mosquito preservation box 7, a GPS communication module 4, a power supply 18, and an environmental information sensor group. The mosquito chamber 22 is equipped with a mosquito attractant 20, a camera 13, and a fan group. The power supply 18 is electrically connected to the control chip 16, and the control chip 16 is electrically connected to the GPS communication module 4, the environmental information sensor group, the camera 13, and the fan group. The mosquito preservation box 7 is equipped with a replaceable bottle 8, which contains RNA preservation fluid and is interconnected with the mosquito chamber 22.

[0023] This instrument, through the combination of mosquito attractant 20 and fan assembly, achieves continuous mosquito capture while maintaining mosquito activity. Camera 13 photographs the mosquitoes, and the high-definition images are transmitted to a cloud database via GPS communication module 4. The cloud database identifies mosquito characteristics in the images, statistically analyzes the types and quantities of mosquitoes, and stores the identified images and classification information for user viewing. Furthermore, captured live mosquitoes are automatically collected in a bottle 8 containing RNA preservation fluid, effectively preserving the RNA virus carried by the live mosquitoes. This provides assurance for RNA virus detection and better prevents the spread of diseases such as dengue fever. The bottle 8 can be automatically replaced after collecting a certain number of mosquitoes to avoid reusing it and affecting the accuracy of RNA virus detection, thus accurately obtaining the proportion of RNA virus contained in the mosquitoes.

[0024] The mosquito chamber 22 is also equipped with an infrared sensor 3. The fan assembly includes an upper fan 12 and a lower fan 15, which are arranged vertically and are respectively installed inside the mosquito chamber 22. The control chip 16 is electrically connected to the upper fan 12, the lower fan 15 and the infrared sensor 3.

[0025] The mosquito chamber 22 is also equipped with a flap 14, which separates the upper chamber and the lower chamber. The control chip 16 is electrically connected to the flap 14. The flap 14 flips inside the mosquito chamber 22 under the control of the control chip 16. The upper fan 12 rotates in the upper chamber under the control of the control chip 16, and the lower fan 15 rotates in the lower chamber under the control of the control chip 16.

[0026] The mosquito chamber 22 has a mosquito inlet 11 on the top, and the mosquito attractant 20 is placed on the mosquito inlet 11. The infrared sensor 3 is placed inside the upper chamber and senses the mosquitoes inside the upper chamber under the control of the control chip 16. The camera 13 is placed inside the upper chamber and takes pictures of the mosquitoes inside the upper chamber under the control of the control chip 16.

[0027] In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the flap 14 is approximately equal to the inner diameter of the mosquito chamber 22. Therefore, when the flap 14 is closed, the mosquito chamber 22 is divided into an upper chamber and a lower chamber, preventing mosquitoes in the lower chamber from escaping and allowing them to enter the bottle 8. The infrared sensor 3, the upper fan 12, and the camera 13 are all located in the upper chamber, while the lower fan 15 is located in the lower chamber. In addition, the upper fan 12 is a positive pressure fan that blows air into the mosquito chamber 22 to automatically capture mosquitoes, while the lower fan 15 is a negative pressure fan that blows air away from the mosquito chamber 22 to create a negative pressure inside the mosquito chamber 22 and guide the mosquitoes toward the bottle 8.

[0028] The bottom of the mosquito container 22 is connected to a connecting pipe 21. The end of the connecting pipe 21 extends into the mosquito storage box 7 and is connected to the bottle body 8. The connecting pipe 21 is provided with a dirt-collecting bend 6.

[0029] In this embodiment, the connecting pipe 21 is S-shaped, with one end connected to the lower compartment of the mosquito chamber 22 and the other end extending into the mosquito storage box 7 and connected to the bottle body 8. The lower bend of the connecting pipe 21 forms a dirt-collecting bend 6 to prevent non-mosquito dirt from entering the bottle body 8 through the connecting pipe 21.

[0030] The mosquito storage box 7 is equipped with a lifting turntable 9. Several bottles 8 are arranged in a ring on the lifting turntable 9. The control chip 16 is electrically connected to the lifting turntable 9. The lifting turntable 9 is raised, lowered and rotated in the mosquito storage box 7 under the control of the control chip 16. During the raising and lowering and rotation, the lifting turntable 9 drives several bottles 8 to follow the raising and lowering and rotation, so that the bottles 8 can be replaced and connected to the connecting pipe 21.

[0031] In this embodiment, there are 3-8 bottles 8 arranged in a ring around the center of the lifting turntable 9. When the lifting turntable 9 is raised, lowered and rotated, the 3-8 bottles 8 will also enter the mosquito storage box 7. In addition, the end of the connecting pipe 21 that extends into the mosquito storage box 7 is located on the side above the lifting turntable 9. Therefore, when the lifting turntable 9 is raised, lowered and rotated, each bottle 8 can be separated from and connected to the end of the connecting pipe 21.

[0032] The mosquito storage box 7 is also equipped with a cooler 17 and an ultrasonic grinder 19. The control chip 16 is electrically connected to the cooler 17 and the ultrasonic grinder 19 respectively. The cooler 17 generates cold air towards the mosquito storage box 7 under the control of the control chip 16, and the ultrasonic grinder 19 performs ultrasonic grinding and kills the mosquitoes in the bottle 8 under the control of the control chip 16.

[0033] In this embodiment, the temperature inside the mosquito preservation box 7 is controlled at 0-10 degrees Celsius by the cooler 17, so that the RNA preservation solution is at a more suitable temperature, which greatly reduces the degradation of RNA virus and improves the detection rate of RNA virus. The ultrasonic grinder 19 is attached to the outer wall of the bottle 8 or directly placed inside the bottle 8. The ultrasonic grinder 19 can crush the live mosquitoes inside the bottle 8 in time to prevent the live mosquitoes from escaping.

[0034] The main body 5 is provided with a top cover 1, which covers the top of the main body 5. The environmental information sensor group includes a temperature and humidity sensor 2 and a wind speed sensor 10. The control chip 16 is electrically connected to the temperature and humidity sensor 2 and the wind speed sensor 10 respectively. The temperature and humidity sensor 2 is set on the top cover 1 and senses the temperature and humidity of the environment in which the main body 5 is located through the control of the control chip 16. The wind speed sensor 10 is set on the top cover 1 and senses the wind speed of the environment in which the main body 5 is located through the control of the control chip 16. The GPS communication module 4 is set on the outer wall of the main body 5 and realizes positioning and remote communication through the control of the control chip 16.

[0035] The driving power supply 18 provides operating power to the control chip 16 through the control of the control chip 16. The driving power supply 18 is an AC battery, and the main body 5 is equipped with a power cord corresponding to the AC battery. Alternatively, the driving power supply 18 is a solar cell, and the top cover 1 is equipped with a solar charging panel corresponding to the solar cell.

[0036] To enable online mosquito retrieval, a cloud database and a statistical data display module are also included.

[0037] The instrument uses mosquito attractant 20 to lure mosquitoes into the mosquito chamber 22 through the mosquito inlet 11. When the infrared sensor 3 detects a mosquito entering the mosquito chamber 22, the upper fan 12 starts and blows the mosquito into the mosquito chamber 22 to capture it. The camera 13 takes pictures of the mosquitoes in the mosquito chamber 22 and uploads them to the cloud database via the GPS communication module 4. Then, the flip panel 14 flips, the lower fan 15 starts, and blows the mosquitoes in the mosquito chamber 22 into the bottle 8 through the connecting tube 21. The RNA carried by the mosquitoes... Virus A is preserved in RNA preservation solution. At the same time, ultrasonic grinder 19 ultrasonically grinds and kills mosquitoes in bottle 8. When a certain number of mosquitoes accumulate in bottle 8, lifting turntable 9 descends and drives the old bottle 8 to separate from the connecting tube 21. Lifting turntable 9 then rotates and drives the bottle mouth of the new bottle 8 to align with the connecting tube 21. Lifting turntable 9 then rises and drives the bottle mouth of the new bottle 8 to align with the connecting tube 21, thereby completing the automatic replacement of bottle 8 and collecting mosquito samples again.

[0038] Furthermore, the mosquito capture process of this instrument is as follows: mosquitoes are attracted by the mosquito attractant 20 and enter the mosquito chamber 22 through the mosquito inlet 11. At this time, the infrared sensor 3 detects that there are mosquitoes in the mosquito chamber 22, the upper fan 12 starts and blows the mosquitoes towards the flip plate 14 to prevent the mosquitoes from escaping. The camera 13 takes pictures of the mosquitoes in the mosquito chamber 22 at regular intervals and uploads them to the cloud database through the GPS communication module 4. After taking pictures, the flip plate 14 flips over, and at the same time the lower fan 15 starts, blowing the mosquitoes in the mosquito chamber 22 into the bottle 8 through the connecting tube 21. The RNA virus carried by the mosquitoes is preserved by the RNA preservation solution, and the ultrasonic grinder 19 performs ultrasonic grinding to kill the mosquitoes in the bottle 8. When a certain number of mosquitoes accumulate in the bottle 8, the lifting turntable 9 descends and drives the old bottle 8 to separate from the connecting tube 21. The lifting turntable 9 then rotates and drives the bottle mouth of the new bottle 8 to align with the connecting tube 21. The lifting turntable 9 then rises and drives the bottle mouth of the new bottle 8 to align with the connecting tube 21, thereby completing the automatic replacement of the bottle 8 and collecting mosquito samples again.

[0039] In this embodiment, the mosquito storage box 7 is provided with a disassembly port corresponding to the bottle 8. When all the bottles 8 have collected mosquitoes, or when the user needs to perform RNA virus detection in the bottle 8 due to special requirements, the user can remove the old bottle 8 from the lifting turntable 9 through the disassembly port and assemble the new bottle 8 on the lifting turntable 9. The user can then take the recycled old bottle 8 back to the laboratory for further RNA virus extraction.

[0040] In this embodiment, the temperature and humidity sensor 2 can sense the temperature and humidity of the environment in which the instrument is located, the wind speed sensor 10 can sense the wind speed in the environment in which the instrument is located, so that users can better understand the impact of environmental factors on mosquito capture, and the GPS communication module 4 can realize the instrument's positioning and remote communication, so as to facilitate information feedback.

[0041] The cloud database has a storage module and a recognition module. The storage module stores images of different types of mosquitoes and forms an original dataset. The recognition module uses an improved AI deep learning algorithm to automatically read the original dataset and uses the large dataset to classify and train mosquito features. Before training, the recognition module uses image segmentation and / or random rotation to enhance the data. When the recognition module receives a new image from the instrument, it also uses image segmentation to enhance the data of the new image, calls the pre-training results for AI recognition, counts the types and numbers of mosquitoes after recognition, and then sends the information of the recognized image and classification number back to the storage module for storage.

[0042] To elaborate further, the improved AI deep learning algorithm is as follows: when the image is greater than or equal to [1280, 1280], or the area of ​​the training / detection target is less than or equal to 1% of the entire image, or there are multiple training / prediction targets, image segmentation methods are used for training and prediction, non-maximum suppression algorithms are used to filter the results, and better image recognition rates are obtained by adjusting the slice_size and overlap_ratio parameters of the sliced ​​sub-images.

[0043] The non-maximum suppression algorithm is as follows: calculate the intersection-union ratio (IOU) between slices, where IOU = the overlapping part of the two images / (the sum of the two images - the overlapping part). The non-maximum suppression algorithm relies on the classifier to obtain multiple candidate boxes and the probability values ​​of the candidate boxes belonging to the category. The boxes are then sorted according to the category classification probabilities obtained by the classifier.

[0044] The statistical display module communicates with the cloud database and automatically reads the stored information from the cloud database. Based on the stored information from the cloud database, it automatically calculates and displays the number of mosquitoes in the environment where the instrument is located, so that each sample has a certain number of target mosquitoes.

[0045] In this embodiment, the statistical display module can be installed on the main body 5 or externally in any location.

[0046] When a certain number of a certain type of mosquito (the target mosquitoes are mainly: Anopheles, Aedes, and Culex) are collected (usually 20-40 mosquitoes per sample group), the statistical display module indicates that the sample needs to be removed and the bottle replaced in time.

[0047] The above describes the preferred embodiments of the present invention, illustrating and describing the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention.

When the recognition module receives a new image from the instrument, it also uses image segmentation to enhance the data of the new image, calls the pre-training results for AI recognition, counts the types and numbers of mosquitoes after recognition, and then sends the information of the recognized images and classification numbers back to the storage module for storage. The statistical display module communicates with the cloud database and automatically reads the stored information of the cloud database. Based on the stored information of the cloud database, it automatically calculates and displays the number of mosquitoes in the environment where the instrument is located, so that each sample has a certain number of target mosquitoes.
