[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0024] Reference as follows Figure 1-3 The utility model is described as follows:
[0025] Example 1: A longhorn beetle trap that is easy to clean, comprising a funnel and a cross plate 9.
[0026] The funnel includes a funnel body, which is open at both ends. The funnel body has a conical structure that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom. This design cleverly utilizes physical principles, making it easier for insects such as longhorn beetles to enter but difficult for them to escape. The funnel body includes an inner funnel 1 and an outer funnel 2, which are arranged inside and outside. The inner funnel 1 and the outer funnel 2 form a rotatable fit in the circumferential direction. The inner funnel 1 and the outer funnel 2 are arranged adjacent to each other. The side wall of the inner funnel 1 is provided with an opening 3, and the side wall of the outer funnel 2 is provided with an opening 2 4. During normal use, the inner funnel 1 and the outer funnel 2 are rotated until the openings 1 3 and 2 4 are circumferentially misaligned. At this point, the trap is in normal working order and can effectively trap insects such as longhorn beetles. When it is necessary to clean the debris in the funnel, the inner funnel 1 and the outer funnel 2 are simply rotated until the openings 1 3 and 2 4 are aligned, and the debris can be easily removed. The angle between the two sides of opening 1 (3) is less than 180 degrees circumferentially. This design ensures the trap's tightness while providing ample space for cleaning debris. The angle between the two sides of opening 2 (4) is smaller than that of opening 1 (3), further enhancing the trap's practicality and stability.
[0027] The lower end of the inner funnel 1 is equipped with a downwardly extending lower connecting tube 5. This circular tube has a support ring 6 threaded onto it. The lower end of the outer funnel 2 engages with the support ring 6. This arrangement not only facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the inner and outer funnels 1 and 2, but also enhances the overall structural stability of the trap. When cleaning or maintenance is needed, the user can easily remove the inner and outer funnels 1 and 2 for thorough cleaning or repair, and then quickly reassemble them without affecting the normal operation of the trap.
[0028] An upper connecting tube 7 (circular tube) extending upward is provided at the upper end of the inner funnel 1 . A protruding limiting portion 8 is provided on the inner side wall of the upper connecting tube 7 . Four limiting portions 8 are provided and spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the upper connecting tube 7 .
[0029] The cross-section of the cross-plate 9 is cross-shaped, which is equivalent to the cross-plate 9 being composed of four plates. The lower end of the cross-plate 9 is connected to the inner side of the upper connecting tube 7. The four plates of the cross-plate 9 are respectively provided with connecting grooves connected to the limiting portion 8. Through this structure, the cross-plate 9 and the upper connecting tube 7 are firmly fixedly connected. The upper end of the cross-plate 9 is connected to a cover. Although not shown in the figure, it can be imagined that the cover can effectively prevent external factors such as rainwater from affecting the inside of the trap. The lower end of the lower connecting tube 5 is connected to a collection cup, which is also not shown in the figure. The collection cup can collect the trapped insects such as longhorn beetles, making it convenient for users to carry out subsequent processing.
[0030] An annular baffle 10 is provided at the upper end of the upper connecting tube 7. Baffle 10 is located outside the area enclosed by the lines connecting the four corners of the cross plate 9. This baffle 10 blocks debris, such as leaves, from entering the trap and affecting its effectiveness. Furthermore, because baffle 10 is located outside the area enclosed by the lines connecting the four corners of the cross plate 9, insects that collide with the cross plate 9 and fall downward are not blocked by baffle 10, ensuring that they can easily fall into the collection cup.
[0031] The following is a detailed analysis of the easy-to-clean longhorn beetle trap:
[0032] I. Overall Structure and Components: This longhorn beetle trap primarily consists of a funnel and a cross plate 9. The funnel body is a conical structure with openings at both ends, consisting of an inner funnel 1 and an outer funnel 2. This conical design facilitates the entry of longhorn beetles and other insects into the trap, and its larger top and smaller bottom shape makes it difficult for insects to escape once inside. The inner funnel 1 has an opening 1 (3) on its sidewall, a circular lower connecting tube 5 extending downward at its lower end, and an upward-extending circular upper connecting tube 7 at its upper end. The upper connecting tube 7 has four protruding restraining portions 8 on its inner sidewall for secure connection with the cross plate 9. The outer funnel 2 has an opening 2 (4) on its sidewall, the lower end of which engages with a support ring 6 on the lower connecting tube 5 of the inner funnel 1. This design facilitates disassembly and assembly of the inner and outer funnels, making them easier to clean and maintain. The cross plate 9 has a cross-shaped cross section and consists of four plates. Its lower end connects to the restraining portion 8 of the upper connecting tube 7 via a connecting groove, and its upper end is connected to a cover (not shown). It supports and guides the insects as they fall. Other components: An annular baffle 10 is installed at the upper end of the upper connecting tube 7, located outside the area enclosed by the four corners of the cross plate 9. This prevents debris such as leaves from entering the trap while also preventing insects from falling into the collection cup (not shown). The lower end of the lower connecting tube 5 is connected to the collection cup, which collects trapped insects.
[0033] II. Functional Analysis of Each Component: Funnel Rotation Design: During normal use, the inner and outer funnels 1 and 2 rotate so that openings 1 and 2 are circumferentially offset, ensuring the trap's tightness and allowing insects to enter but preventing them from escaping. To clean debris from the funnel, the inner and outer funnels are rotated so that openings 1 and 2 align, making debris removal quick and easy. The angle between opening 1 3 is less than 180 degrees, and the angle between opening 2 4 is smaller than that of opening 1. This design ensures the appropriate opening size for cleaning without affecting the proper function of the trap. Function of the Connecting Tube and Support Ring: The threaded support ring 6 on the lower connecting tube 5 facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the inner and outer funnels 1 and 2, allowing for easy separation when deep cleaning or maintenance is required. Furthermore, the support ring 6 supports and secures the lower end of the outer funnel 2, enhancing the stability of the entire funnel structure.
[0034] Function of the cross plate: The cross plate 9 is fixedly connected to the upper connecting tube 7 to provide support for the cover. At the same time, its cross-shaped structure can guide the insects to fall accurately after collision, thereby improving the trapping efficiency. Function of the baffle: The annular baffle 10 can prevent external debris such as leaves from entering the interior of the trap, keeping the interior of the trap clean and preventing debris from affecting the insect trapping effect. It is positioned outside the area enclosed by the four corners of the cross plate 9 to ensure that the insects can fall smoothly into the collection cup after colliding with the cross plate without being hindered by the baffle.
[0035] 3. Advantages summary: Easy to clean: The rotatable design of the funnel and the detachable connection of each component make it very easy to clean the debris in the trap, greatly improving the convenience of use. Stable structure: The reasonable design and connection method of the inner funnel, outer funnel, cross plate, connecting pipe, supporting ring and other components ensure the structural stability of the trap, and can work stably in various environments such as outdoors. Efficient trapping: The combination of the conical funnel, cross plate and collection cup can effectively guide insects to enter and collect them, thereby improving the trapping efficiency. Protective effect: The setting of the baffle can prevent external debris from entering the trap, protect the internal structure from damage, and at the same time does not affect the falling of insects, ensuring the trapping effect.
[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
