Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the fields of gas production devices and mosquito trapping, specifically to a carbon dioxide enrichment device and an outdoor mosquito trapping machine. Background Technology
[0002] The statements in this section are provided only as background information in connection with this disclosure and may not constitute prior art.
[0003] In the field of outdoor mosquito trapping equipment, attracting mosquitoes using carbon dioxide enrichment technology has become the mainstream approach. Current equipment generally relies on high-pressure gas cylinders to store carbon dioxide. While this achieves the gas release function, it presents safety hazards during cylinder transportation and maintenance costs due to frequent cylinder replacements. In recent years, adsorption-type carbon dioxide release devices have emerged, avoiding the drawbacks of gas cylinders. However, due to insufficient specific surface area of the adsorption material and low temperature control accuracy, the dynamic balance between adsorption capacity and release rate is difficult to maintain. In actual operation, mosquito attraction efficiency often declines rapidly over time.
[0004] Existing technologies have significant shortcomings in the coordinated regulation of environmental factors. Conventional devices often keep the mosquito-attracting lamp light source on all day, resulting in ineffective energy consumption in strong daylight conditions; at the same time, they lack protection mechanisms against rainwater intrusion, and heavy rain can easily cause short circuits in the device's circuitry or hydrolysis failure of the adsorbent material.
[0005] In addition, the existing open-release structure directly discharges the high-temperature carbon dioxide gas, which poses a safety hazard of burning those who come into contact with it, and fails to provide gradient regulation of the temperature and flow rate of the released gas, resulting in a decrease in the mosquito's attraction response.
[0006] Therefore, traditional mosquito-catching equipment currently struggles to balance long-term effectiveness, safety, and environmental adaptability in complex outdoor conditions. Utility Model Content

[0036] The features and performance of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.
[0037] Example 1
[0038] Please see Figure 1-2 A carbon dioxide enrichment device, specifically comprising the following structure:
[0039] The adsorption module, heating release module, and gas slow release module form a closed-loop airflow path through the air duct;
[0040] The adsorption module encapsulates adsorption particles 9 for adsorbing carbon dioxide from the air.

[0044] The adsorption module is responsible for adsorbing carbon dioxide from the air at room temperature, the heating and release module causes the adsorbed particles 9 to release carbon dioxide by heating, and the gas slow release module cools the high-temperature carbon dioxide and controls the flow rate, forming a closed loop of "adsorption-desorption-slow release".
[0045] In this embodiment, specifically, the adsorption module includes: a double-layer shell, an upper isolation plate 4, a lower isolation plate 5, and a heat transfer plate 6;
[0046] The inner layer of the double-layer shell is a metal inner shell 7, and the outer layer is a plastic outer shell 8, with a certain air gap in between to block the transfer of external heat; thus, the surface temperature of the plastic outer shell 8 is reduced through the gap, which meets the safety standards for human contact; at the same time, the metal / plastic composite structure also solves the problem of thermal deformation of single materials.
[0047] The upper isolation plate 4 and the lower isolation plate 5 are respectively disposed on the two end faces of the metal inner shell 7 to form an accommodating space; the main purpose of the isolation plate is to prevent the adsorbed particles 9 from falling out; the upper isolation plate 4 and the lower isolation plate 5 are provided with a number of pores smaller than carbon dioxide adsorbed particles 9.
[0048] Multiple heat transfer plates 6 are spaced apart in the accommodating space to form multiple cavities, and adsorption particles 9 are provided in the cavities; preferably, the heat transfer plates 6 are aluminum fins, which divide the accommodating space into multiple cavities, thereby increasing the heat conduction area.
[0049] In this embodiment, specifically, the heating release module includes: a fan 10 and a PTC heating module 11;
[0050] The PTC heating module 11 is installed at one end of the adsorption module, and the fan 10 is installed on the PTC heating module 11.
[0051] Example 2
[0052] Please see Figure 3 This utility model also proposes an outdoor mosquito trap, including the aforementioned carbon dioxide enrichment device, and further including: a base 12, a housing 13 installed above the base 12, the carbon dioxide enrichment device being disposed inside the housing 13, and an air inlet 14 being provided on the housing 13; a high-voltage grid 15 is installed below the housing 13; in this embodiment, the carbon dioxide release hole 2 is higher than the center of the high-voltage grid 15.
[0053] In this embodiment, specifically, a protective cover 16 is provided below the outer shell 13, and the high-voltage power grid 15 is located inside the protective cover 16.
[0054] In this embodiment, a mosquito-attracting lamp 17 is specifically provided below the outer casing 13; in this embodiment, the mosquito-attracting lamp 17 is located in the middle of one side of the high-voltage power grid 15.
[0055] In this embodiment, specifically, it also includes: a control module and a light sensor 18; the light sensor 18 is installed on the housing 13 and is used to monitor light intensity; the control module controls the switch of the mosquito-attracting lamp 17 according to the monitoring results.
[0056] In this embodiment, specifically, it also includes: a rain sensor 19 for monitoring rainwater; the control module controls the switching on and off of the mosquito-attracting lamp 17 and the carbon dioxide enrichment device according to the monitoring results.
[0057] In this embodiment, specifically, an indicator light 20 is also provided on the base 12 to display the working status; optionally, the indicator light 20 is a three-color LED (red / yellow / green), which encodes various fault types by flashing frequency.
[0058] Its specific working principle is as follows:
[0059] During the 90-minute adsorption phase, fan 10 delivers room-temperature air into the adsorption module, where it reacts with the adsorption particles 9, locking carbon dioxide inside the adsorption particles 9.
[0060] During the 90-minute release phase, the PTC heating module 11 is turned on, and the fan 10 sends hot air into the adsorption module, raising the temperature. The adsorbed particles 9 release carbon dioxide, which passes through the lower isolation plate 5 and is buffered by the cooling plate 3 before being slowly released through the carbon dioxide release hole 2, thereby attracting mosquitoes to approach. The high-voltage grid 15 then kills the mosquitoes.
[0061] At the same time, the mosquito-attracting lamp 17 can enhance the attraction of mosquitoes and kill them.
[0062] In addition, a light sensor 18 is provided. When the light is strong during the day, the mosquito-attracting lamp 17 is turned off, and at night the mosquito-attracting lamp 17 is turned on to attract mosquitoes.
[0063] Additionally, a rain sensor 19 is included, which stops working on rainy days.
[0064] The embodiments described above merely illustrate specific implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are detailed and specific, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this application.
