Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of rodent control technology, specifically, it relates to rodent control stations. Background Technology
[0002] A rodent control station (also known as a poison bait station or rat bait station) is a fixed facility used for the long-term placement of rodent poison bait, mainly for rodent control in outdoor or specific locations.
[0003] Currently, although rat extermination stations are equipped with ramps to prevent external water from entering and affecting the poison bait, when there is excessive rainfall, some rat extermination stations are located in low-lying areas, where rainwater can easily overflow and cause the poison bait to become damp or dispersed. This not only reduces the effectiveness of rat extermination but may also pollute the environment. In view of the above problems, a new rat extermination station is proposed here.

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0023] Example: Refer to Figures 1-4 The rodent control station includes a bait box 1 with openings 3 at both ends and a lid 2 detachably connected to the top of the bait box 1. Both the bait box 1 and the lid 2 are made of waterproof material. A handle is rotatably mounted on the lid 2 to facilitate moving the bait box 1. The outer wall of the bait box 1 is marked with warnings such as "Rodent Control Station, Poison Bait Inside". A floating ring 14 is fixed to the bottom of the bait box 1 by bolts, buckles, or Velcro. A second mounting groove 9 is provided at the bottom of the bait box 1. A counterweight 10 (preferably concrete, sandbag, etc.) is fixed in the second mounting groove 9 by a snap-fit component. The counterweight 10 is connected to the bottom of the bait box 1 by a rope 11 (preferably steel wire rope or stainless steel chain). A placement box 17 is detachably connected inside the bait box 1. The poison bait is placed in the placement box 17. After opening the lid 2, the placement box 17 can be removed for replacement and cleaning.
[0024] The lid 2 is connected to the bait box 1 by bolts. After the rodent extermination station is placed in the designated area, the snap-fit assembly is opened to remove the fixation of the counterweight 10. When the location of the rodent extermination station is flooded due to heavy rain or other reasons and the water level is high, the buoyancy of the water causes the floating ring 14 to float up. The floating ring 14 causes the bait box 1 to float up, thereby keeping the bait inside the bait box 1 away from the floodwater.
[0025] In summary, both the bait box 1 and the lid 2 are made of waterproof materials, effectively preventing rainwater or stagnant water from seeping into the interior, avoiding the bait from getting damp and moldy, and extending the service life of the bait. In addition, the floating ring 14 can make the bait box 1 float when the water level rises, ensuring that the bait is always above the water surface and avoiding being soaked in water and becoming ineffective. Therefore, the combination design of the counterweight 10 and the floating ring 14 allows the rodent control station to be placed stably on dry ground and to automatically float during heavy rain and water accumulation, making it suitable for flood-prone areas (such as around sewers and low-lying areas).
[0026] Reference Figure 2 Figure 4 The snap-fit assembly includes a snap-fit seat 13 fixedly installed on the side wall of the poison bait box 1, and a limit rod 12 snap-fitted onto the snap-fit seat 13. The limit rod 12 passes through the poison bait box 1 and the counterweight block 10.
[0027] When using the rodent control station, the limiting rod 12 can be pulled out to remove the fixation between the bait box 1 and the counterweight 10. When moving the rodent control station, the limiting rod 12 can be inserted into the bait box 1 and the counterweight 10, and then the limiting rod 12 can be locked into the card holder 13 to fix the limiting rod 12, ensuring that the counterweight 10 and the bait box 1 move together and avoid separation during transportation.
[0028] Reference Figure 2 Both ends of the poison bait box 1 are equipped with drainage seats 8. Both ends of the drainage seats 8 are equipped with slopes, and the middle part of the drainage seats 8 is higher than the two ends. Together with the floating ring 14, it achieves double waterproofing.
[0029] Reference Figure 4 The floating ring 14 includes a protective outer shell 141 and a filling medium 142, with the filling medium 142 disposed inside the protective outer shell 141.
[0030] When the protective jacket 141 is a seal, the filling medium 142 is air;
[0031] When the protective jacket 141 is not sealed, the filling medium 142 is preferably a foam board.
[0032] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 An arc-shaped guide plate 15 is fixedly installed inside the bait box 1. The position of the placement box 17 is opposite to the direction of the opening of the arc-shaped guide plate 15 extending into the bait box 1. This design can block external vision and direct contact, reducing the risk of children, pets and other non-target creatures discovering the bait.
[0033] Reference Figure 2 Both ends of the bottom of the box cover 2 are fixedly installed with identification cameras 4. The box cover 2 has a first mounting slot 6, and a storage battery 7 is installed in the first mounting slot 6. The box cover 2 also has a wireless transmission controller 5. By designing two sets of cameras, the overall photo of the trapped rodent can be taken regardless of which hole 3 it enters or exits from, thus facilitating the identification of the type of trapped rodent. The storage battery 7 can power the identification cameras 4 and the wireless transmission controller 5. The wireless transmission controller 5 can transmit the images captured by the identification cameras 4 to a mobile terminal or computer terminal through a wireless signal transmission system, making it convenient for staff to observe the attracted rodents.
[0034] Furthermore, a temperature and humidity sensor can be installed inside the poison bait box 1. By using the temperature and humidity sensor in conjunction with the wireless transmission controller 5, the environment inside the poison bait box 1 can be monitored in real time.
[0035] Reference Figure 4The bait box 1 is equipped with a groove 18, and a desiccant 16 is placed in the groove 18. The desiccant 16 (such as silica gel, zeolite, etc.) can effectively absorb the moisture in the bait box 1, prevent the bait from getting damp and moldy, maintain its palatability and efficacy stability, and avoid the environment in the bait box 1 from being too humid, which would cause the wax layer to soften or mold, thereby avoiding a reduction in the rodent control effect.
[0036] In summary, this rodent control station features a waterproof enclosure and a floating design (combination of counterweight 10 and floating ring 14), allowing it to be placed stably on dry ground and automatically float in water to prevent the bait from soaking. It incorporates a built-in intelligent recognition camera 4 (dual-view coverage) and a wireless transmission system for remote rodent species monitoring, while a temperature and humidity sensor and desiccant 16 ensure the bait remains moisture-proof and fresh. The curved guide plate 15, arranged in a reverse configuration and working in conjunction with the bait box 1, blocks external visibility, thereby reducing the risk of accidental ingestion.
[0037] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-described technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
