Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of green pest control technology, and in particular to an intelligent trapping device based on the tropism of pests. Background Technology
[0002] Insect pests are significant harmful biological agents that damage crops such as grains, fruit trees, and vegetables, and are generally characterized by their high susceptibility to outbreaks and difficulty in control. Utilizing their phototaxis and chemotaxis behaviors to trap and kill them has become one of the core technical means of green pest control for crops due to its high targeting effectiveness and environmental friendliness.
[0003] However, currently widely used insect trapping devices generally suffer from the following technical defects: First, the level of intelligence in the trapping and control process is low. The release of attractants largely relies on passive volatilization, making it impossible to quantitatively adjust according to changes in insect populations and environmental conditions, resulting in unstable trapping effects. Second, the killing module mostly adopts a continuous electric grid operation mode, failing to achieve intelligent start-up and shutdown based on pest activity patterns, leading to serious energy waste. Third, device operation and maintenance are highly dependent on manual labor, including attractant replenishment, insect removal, and equipment start-up and shutdown, resulting in delayed response and high costs. Furthermore, in the insect collection stage, traditional insect-collecting funnels and collection bottles are mostly simply connected. Given the light size and strong struggling ability of adult pests, they are easily escaped from the interface after being stunned by the electric grid, seriously affecting the final control effect. At the same time, existing devices lack effective status monitoring and remote communication functions, making it difficult to link with pest monitoring and early warning systems, resulting in a lack of scientific data support for trapping decisions.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need in this field for a pest control device that can achieve intelligent management of the entire process of combined tactic attraction, precise and long-lasting slow release, monitoring and linkage killing, and prevention of escape collection, and effectively solve the above-mentioned technical pain points. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This application provides an intelligent trapping device based on the tropism of pests. The device integrates a modular and detachable collaborative trapping and control module with an integrated electric grid killing structure. It introduces a precise control release system based on a micro solenoid valve and an intelligent telescopic push rod, realizing intelligent management of the entire process of pest control from trapping, slow release, killing to collection. It effectively solves the key technical problems of traditional devices, such as uncontrollable release of attractants, continuous energy consumption of the electric grid, easy escape of insects, and reliance on manual operation and maintenance. It significantly improves the efficiency and reliability of pest control, while greatly reducing operation and maintenance costs and energy and pesticide consumption.
[0006] In a first aspect, an intelligent trapping device based on the tropism of pests is provided, characterized in that the device comprises:
[0007] A collaborative trapping module, comprising: a sex-attracting unit, a food-attracting unit, and at least one specific light-attracting unit;
[0008] An electric grid killing module, comprising: a connecting post and an electric grid;
[0009] An insect collection module, comprising: an insect-falling funnel and an insect-collecting bottle, wherein the insect-collecting bottle is detachably connected to the insect-falling funnel.
[0010] The collaborative trapping module and the electric grid killing module are detachably connected, and the insect collection module is fixedly connected to the electric grid killing module;
[0011] The control module receives instructions from the cloud and controls the collaborative trapping module and the electric grid killing module based on the instructions from the cloud.
[0012] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the sexual attraction unit includes: a sexual attraction agent sustained-release device and an intelligent telescopic rod, wherein the sexual attraction agent sustained-release device is connected to the telescopic end of the intelligent telescopic rod, and the control module controls the extension and retraction of the intelligent telescopic rod based on the cloud command.
[0013] It should be understood that the intelligent telescopic pole, as the driving component of the pheromone slow-release device, enables dynamic adjustment of the release height in response to cloud commands. This allows for proactive optimization of the spatial distribution of pheromones based on environmental factors and insect population changes, improving trapping efficiency during critical periods while significantly reducing pesticide waste.
[0014] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the attractant unit includes a storage tank, a micro solenoid valve, and an attractant tray. The storage tank stores insect attractants, the micro solenoid valve controls the release of the insect attractants onto the attractant tray, and the control module controls the opening and closing of the micro solenoid valve based on the cloud command to quantitatively release the attractants.
[0015] It should be understood that using a miniature solenoid valve as the control component for the release of the attractant, and achieving precise opening and closing control based on cloud commands, changes the traditional working mode of passive volatilization and uncontrollable release of attractants. It realizes the precise delivery of attractants in a timed and quantitative manner, thereby dynamically adjusting the timing and dosage of attractant release according to the activity patterns of pests and environmental changes. This not only ensures the concentration of the agent required for efficient attraction, but also solves the technical problems of agent waste, unstable release, and the need for frequent manual replenishment that exist in traditional devices.
[0016] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the light-attracting unit includes a light source capable of emitting wavelengths specific to pests, and the control module controls the light source to emit light of a specified wavelength based on the cloud-based instructions.
[0017] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the end of the insect-falling funnel connected to the insect-collecting bottle is provided with an inverted cone-shaped anti-escape insect inlet, the inverted cone-shaped anti-escape insect inlet extending downward and into the internal cavity of the insect-collecting bottle.
[0018] It should be understood that the knocked-down pests slide into the collection bottle through the inverted cone-shaped escape-proof inlet under the action of gravity. However, when the pests try to escape in the opposite direction, they are effectively blocked by the inward-curving opening of the inverted cone structure and the extension section that goes deep into the bottle cavity. This design effectively solves the technical problem of easy escape of insects in traditional simple docking collection structures, significantly improves the reliability of actual control effect, and reduces the risk of repeated damage caused by insect escape.
[0019] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the control module controls the energizing time and current intensity of the power grid based on the cloud-based instructions.
[0020] In conjunction with the first aspect, in certain implementations of the first aspect, the apparatus includes:
[0021] The monitoring module is used to monitor the operation of the device, acquire device operation data, and automatically trigger power-off protection and report fault information when abnormalities occur.
[0022] The communication module is used to receive information from the cloud and upload the device's operating data and fault information.
[0023] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the device includes a solar power supply module, which includes a high-efficiency solar panel and a lithium battery pack, and prioritizes the operation of the power grid through dynamic power allocation technology.

[0029] Pests are significant harmful organisms that damage crops such as grains, fruit trees, and vegetables. Utilizing their tactic behavior for trapping and killing is a key method of green pest control.
