Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of crab trapping, in particular to a crab trapping device with lights. Background Art

[0002] Crabs belong to the order Decapoda, class Molluscs, and are crustaceans protected by a hard shell and breathing through gills. Taxonomically, they are members of the same family as shrimp, lobsters, and hermit crabs, and are also classified as crabs. Most crab species live in the ocean or nearshore, though some also inhabit freshwater or land. Common crabs include swimming crabs, deep-sea swimming crabs, blue crabs, and Chinese mitten crabs (river crabs, hairy crabs, and clearwater crabs). Crab traps are commonly used.

[0003] Currently, ground traps are typically placed directly in the water to trap crabs, due to their tendency to hide. However, once crabs enter, the high density of the traps can lead to significant damage, necessitating prompt capture. However, ground traps are difficult to use in the water, as they are difficult to operate. Furthermore, crabs have a limited range of activity, and uneven distribution of ground traps in large ponds can result in low capture rates and poor fishing results. Utility Model Content

[0026] Example 1:

[0027] A preferred embodiment of the crab trapping device with light provided by the utility model is as follows: Figure 1-5 The figure shows a crab trapping device with light, comprising an external trapping bucket 11 and a built-in trapping structure 2 arranged inside the external trapping bucket 11. The top of the external trapping bucket 11 is open, and blocks 13 are connected to the top of the circumference of the top at equal intervals. The top of the blocks 13 is connected to a curved chute 12, which is integrally formed with the external trapping bucket 11. The inclined surface of the curved chute 12 is convenient for crabs to crawl into. A concave well is provided at the bottom of the external trapping bucket 11, and water guide grooves 14 are provided on the four walls of the concave well for placing the external trapping bucket 11 in the trap. The trap is formed by a water guide groove 14, which allows the water in the bottom of the trap to pass through the water guide groove 14, and the external trapping bucket 11 is firmly placed by the pressure of the water; the outer wall of the external trapping bucket 11 is fixedly installed with a fixing seat 15 on both sides, and the fixing seat 15 is provided with a fixing hole, and the hole is equipped with a handle 16; the bottom of the inner wall of the external trapping bucket 11 is integrally connected with a raised column 17, and the top port of the external trapping bucket 11 is integrally connected with an arc-shaped groove block 18 at equal distances around the circumference, and the top and bottom of the arc-shaped groove block 18 are both provided with T-shaped slide grooves, and one side of the arc-shaped groove block 18 is provided with a T-circular opening groove;

[0028] In this embodiment, the structures provided on the external trapping bucket 11 are all made of environmentally friendly materials to ensure that no pollution is caused to the water environment during the fishing process. A plurality of groups of arc-shaped groove blocks 18 are designed, and the arc-shaped groove blocks 18 are equipped with T-circular opening grooves and T-shaped slide grooves, which are respectively adapted to the T-circular sliders 27 and the T-shaped sliders 28, so that the T-circular sliders 27 and the T-shaped sliders 28 can slide freely between the arc-shaped groove blocks 18. When it is necessary to catch crabs, the fishing bucket 21 is rotated to rotate the T-circular sliders 27 and the T-shaped sliders 28 to the spacing between the arc-shaped groove blocks 18, and then the fishing bucket 21 is lifted to smoothly take the crabs out of the bucket.

[0029] Example 2:

[0030] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 , and on the basis of Example 1, it is further obtained that: the built-in trapping structure 2 specifically includes a fishing bucket 21, the bottom of the fishing bucket 21 is integrally connected with a concave groove 23, and the concave groove 23 is adapted to the convex column 17, the bottom of the fishing bucket 21 and the outer wall below the fishing bucket 21 are circumferentially equidistantly provided with leakage holes 22, the outer wall of the lower half of the fishing bucket 21 fits with the inner wall of the lower half of the external trapping bucket 11, the upper half of the fishing bucket 21 is a straight cylinder 24, and the outer wall of the upper half of the fishing bucket 21 fits with the outer wall of the external trapping bucket 11. A gap is formed between the inner walls of the upper half of the bucket 11, and the outer wall of the upper half of the bucket 21 is provided with crawl-in slots 25 at equal intervals around its circumference. If a crab falls into the gap, it can also enter the bucket 21 through the crawl-in slots 25. The provision of drainage holes 22 allows crabs to remain safely within the bucket 21, while excess water can be drained through the drainage holes 22. When the bucket is retrieved, all water is drained through the drainage holes 22, leaving only the crabs. This maintains a stable internal environment of the bucket 21 and reduces damage to the crabs during the harvesting process. Furthermore, the straight tube 24 of the bucket 21 facilitates the centralized storage of caught crabs, facilitating subsequent retrieval and transportation.

[0031] The top of the fishing bucket 21 is integrally connected with a stepped transparent convex cover 26, and the outer wall of the stepped transparent convex cover 26 is integrally connected with a T-circular slider 27 that is compatible with the T-circular opening groove, and the top and bottom of the stepped transparent convex cover 26 are integrally connected with T-shaped sliders 28 that are compatible with the T-shaped slide groove; the spacing between the arc-shaped groove blocks 18 is greater than the width of the T-circular sliders 27 and the T-shaped sliders 28, so that the T-circular sliders 27 and the T-shaped sliders 28 can slide freely between the arc-shaped groove blocks 18. When crabs need to be caught, the fishing bucket 21 is rotated to rotate the T-circular sliders 27 and the T-shaped sliders 28 to the spacing between the arc-shaped groove blocks 18, and then the fishing bucket 21 is lifted to smoothly take the crabs out of the bucket.

[0032] In addition, an elastic baffle 213 connected to the T-shaped sliders 28 is provided between the T-shaped sliders 28. The elastic baffle 213 is made of flexible silicone material. During the crab fishing process, if a larger crab tries to escape and crawls over the baffle, the elastic baffle 213 will produce a certain resistance to it, preventing the crab from escaping and facilitating the smooth progress of the fishing operation.

[0033] The stepped, transparent convex cover 26 houses a light chamber 29, with wiring holes 212 equidistantly spaced around its bottom circumference. Wiring clips 210 are fixedly attached to the inner wall of the light chamber 29 at equidistant intervals. An LED light strip 211 is clipped onto the wiring clips 210. This LED light strip 211 is connected to an external power source via built-in wiring and through the wiring holes 212. The light chamber 29 also includes a light modulator electrically connected to the LED light strip 211. Attracted by the light, crabs slowly crawl along the curved chute 12 and into the trap 21, significantly enhancing the trapping effect. The wiring holes 212 should be sealed to prevent water from infiltrating and damaging the LED light strip 211, ensuring long-term stable operation of the lighting system.

[0034] In this embodiment, an LED light strip 211 is provided in the light cavity 29 of the crab trapping device. The LED light strip 211 is connected to an external power source through a wire hole 212. When the LED light strip 211 is illuminated, soft light can be emitted at night to attract crabs. In conjunction with the light adjuster, the light adjuster has the function of adjusting the brightness and flashing frequency of the light. The light effect that attracts crabs can be adjusted according to the habits of crabs and the requirements of the water environment, thereby improving the trapping efficiency.

[0035] In this embodiment, the elastic baffle 213 is provided to prevent crabs from escaping during the trapping process. The elastic baffle 213 is made of a flexible and environmentally friendly silicone material with a certain elasticity and recovery properties, so that crabs can be successfully captured when trying to cross.

[0036] When in use, the staff first digs a trap pit beside the crab pond or at the four corners of the rice field, and then firmly places the external trapping bucket 11 in the trap pit. The surrounding environment is carefully arranged to simulate the natural habitat of crabs; then the fishing bucket 21 is rotated from the spacing between the arc groove blocks 18 until the T-circular slider 27 and the T-shaped slider 28 slide into the arc groove blocks 18, and then the bucket is filled with water. Then the power is turned on and the LED light strip 211 is turned on, and the trapping device starts to work. The LED light strip 211 lights up, and it can catch crabs at night. It emits soft light to attract crabs to come closer, and with the cooperation of the light adjuster, the light adjuster has the function of adjusting the brightness and flashing frequency of the light. The lighting effect of attracting crabs can be adjusted according to the habits of crabs and the needs of the water environment. After waiting for the crabs to be lured into the fishing bucket 21, the fishing bucket 21 is rotated to rotate the T-circular slider 27 and the T-shaped slider 28 to the distance between the arc-shaped groove blocks 18, and then the fishing bucket 21 is lifted. All water is discharged from the leaking hole 22, leaving only the crabs. The crabs can be smoothly taken out of the bucket and the fishing operation can be carried out smoothly.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art will be able to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein with equivalents.
