Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of termite control, and in particular to a termite control device for river embankments and dams. Background Technology

[0002] Termite control on river embankments and dams is a crucial task, directly impacting the safety and stability of water conservancy facilities. Termites nest densely within river embankments and reservoir dams, multiplying rapidly and creating numerous nests and tunnels. These tunnels not only traverse the inner and outer slopes of the embankment but some even penetrate sections of the dam's inner and outer slopes, causing structural damage. Termites gradually erode and gnaw at the embankment soil, hollowing out the interior and creating cavities. These cavities can easily lead to piping and seepage during periods of high water levels in the flood season, and in severe cases, can even cause dam collapse.

[0003] A search revealed Chinese Patent Publication No. CN 212813731 U, which discloses an automatic termite extermination device. The device includes a box, a lid, a partition, a baiting mechanism, and a detection mechanism. The box contains termite-killing agents. The lid is mounted on the box. The partition is located inside the box and rotatably connected to it. An inlet is located on the side wall of the box, above the partition. The baiting mechanism is mounted on the partition to lure termites into it. The detection mechanism is mounted on the lid to detect the presence of termites on the partition. When the detection mechanism detects termites entering the partition, the partition flips, causing the termites to fall into the pesticide solution. This achieves concentrated termite extermination, avoiding the environmental problems and rain-induced ineffectiveness associated with spraying methods.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors have discovered the following drawbacks: In existing termite extermination treatments, because termites are relatively light and easily attach themselves to the inside of the partition boards, they can climb inside, making it difficult for pesticides to harm them. This results in incomplete termite extermination, and the termites still damage the riverbanks, hollowing out the interior of the dam and forming cavities. Utility Model Content

[0022] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0023] This application discloses a termite control device for river embankments and dams. For example... Figure 1As shown, the device includes an ant-killing cylinder 1. Three identical support legs 5 are fixedly installed on the outside of the ant-killing cylinder 1 via a fixing plate 4. The support legs 5 facilitate the placement of the ant-killing cylinder 1 in different working positions. A conical cylinder 6 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the ant-killing cylinder 1. A column is fixedly installed at the bottom of the conical cylinder 6. The surface of the column is treated with anti-slip material. The bottom of the column is level with the bottom of the support legs 5. The surface of the conical cylinder 6 is provided with round holes, allowing termites to crawl into the interior of the conical cylinder 6 through the column.

[0024] Please see Figure 2 The top of the termite-killing tube 1 is fixedly equipped with a top cover plate 2. A sealing plate 3 is fixedly equipped in the middle of the inner wall of the top cover plate 2. A climbing shaft 13 is fixedly equipped in the middle of the lower surface of the sealing plate 3. The surface of the climbing shaft 13 is provided with protrusions. The protrusions facilitate termites to climb upwards on the surface of the climbing shaft 13. Three identical pads 16 are evenly arranged on the outside of the climbing shaft 13. A sleeve 12 is provided on the upper surface of each of the three pads 16. The three pads 16 facilitate the placement of the sleeves 12 on top, thereby placing the three poison bait tubes 9. The use of multiple poison bait tubes 9 can attract more termites.

[0025] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 A pad 16 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the climbing shaft 13 near the bottom. A sleeve 12 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the pad 16. The inner diameter of the sleeve 12 is larger than the diameter of the conical plate 18. The larger diameter of the sleeve 12 facilitates the sliding of the conical plate 18 inside. The outer width of the sleeve 12 is the same as the inner width of the sleeve 21. The sleeve 12 and the sleeve 21 of the same width make the sleeve 21 more stable when sliding. The distance between the sleeve 12 and the poison bait tube 9 is greater than the maximum movement distance of the poison bait tube 9 to avoid movement conflict between the sleeve 12 and the poison bait tube 9. The outer side of the top of the sleeve 12 slides... A sleeve plate 21 is provided, and a poison bait tube 9 is fixedly provided on the top of the sleeve plate 21. A fixing strip 10 is fixedly provided on the outside of the poison bait tube 9. The side of the fixing strip 10 away from the poison bait tube 9 is slidably connected to the side of the inner wall of the ant killing tube 1. The surface of the poison bait tube 9 is provided with the same round hole. The fixing strip 10 makes the poison bait tube 9 slide connected to the inner wall of the ant killing tube 1, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the poison bait tube 9. A sealing plate 7 is fixedly provided on the top of the poison bait tube 9. A bolt rod 8 is threaded into the middle of the sealing plate 7. A top plate is fixedly provided on the top of the bolt rod 8. The outside of the top plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the round hole in the middle of the sealing plate 3.

[0026] Please see Figure 3A vertical rod 11 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the sleeve 21. A limiting ring 17 is fixedly installed in the middle of the vertical rod 11. The limiting ring 17 restricts the limiting circular plate 20 below to prevent the limiting circular plate 20 from moving excessively. The limiting circular plate 20 is slidably sleeved on the outer side of the vertical rod 11 near the bottom. The outer side of the limiting circular plate 20 is set as a rhombus. The rhombus-shaped limiting circular plate 20 matches the inclined edge of the left limiting block 19. Under the action of the limiting circular plate 20, the limiting block 19 can move. The limiting circular plate 20 has the same diameter as the conical circular plate 18. The outer inclination angle of the limiting circular plate 20 is the same as the inclination angle of the inclined edge of the right end of the limiting block 19.

[0027] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 A conical plate 18 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the vertical rod 11. A limit block 19 is slidably installed on the upper surface of the conical plate 18. A spring is fixedly installed at the left end of the limit block 19. The end of the spring away from the limit block 19 is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the support plate 15. After moving under the action of the spring, the limit block 19 will be reset in time. The spring is sleeved on the outside of the horizontal moving rod 14. The right end of the limit block 19 is set as a slope. The sloped limit block 19 facilitates sliding contact with the side of the limit plate 20. The outer side of the limit block 19 is slidably inserted into the middle of one side of the sleeve 12. A horizontal moving rod 14 is fixedly installed at the end of the limit block 19 away from the sleeve 12. A support plate 15 is slidably sleeved at the end of the horizontal moving rod 14 away from the limit block 19. The bottom of the support plate 15 is fixedly installed at one end of the upper surface of the pad 16.

[0028] The implementation principle of the termite extermination device for river embankments and dams in this application embodiment is as follows: During use, the termite-killing cylinder 1 is placed in an area frequently inhabited by termites on the river embankment via the support leg 5. A bait cylinder 9 containing the slow-acting poison fipronil or imidacloprid is placed inside. When termites climb onto the surface of the climbing shaft 13 via the conical cylinder 6, and then climb upwards to the inside of the bait cylinder 9, they will carry the bait back to their nest. Through the termite feeding behavior, the entire colony will be poisoned and die, resulting in better termite extermination. When it is necessary to replace the fipronil or imidacloprid inside the bait cylinder 9, the bait cylinder 9 is pressed downwards. The bait cylinder 9 moves the lower sleeve plate 21 and vertical rod 11 into the sleeve 12. The vertical rod 11 moves the surface limiting circular plate 20 downwards towards the limiting block 19. Due to the angle of the inclined surface of the limiting circular plate 20, when the bottom of the limiting circular plate 20 is in close contact with the upper surface of the conical circular plate 18... Under the inclination of the limiting circular plate 20, it slides into contact with the right end of the limiting block 19, allowing the limiting block 19 to slide in the middle of the sleeve 12. The limiting block 19 is released from the restriction on the vertical rod 11 and the poison bait tube 9, allowing the poison bait tube 9 to be easily removed. The top of the poison bait tube 9 is opened by rotating the bolt rod 8, so that the internal fipronil and imidacloprid can be replaced. After the replacement is completed, the poison bait tube 9 is inserted into the ant-killing tube 1. The poison bait tube 9 drives the vertical rod 11 below to slide into the sleeve 12. The conical circular plate 18 and the limiting circular plate 20 move to the bottom of the limiting block 19. After the conical circular plate 18 moves to the bottom of the limiting block 19, the limiting block 19 is inserted between the limiting circular plate 20 and the lower conical circular plate 18 under the action of the spring. Under the action of the conical circular plate 18 and the limiting circular plate 20, the vertical rod 11 is locked and fixed, thus achieving the effect of fixing the poison bait tube 9.

[0029] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
