Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of pest trapping, and in particular to an automatic plate-changing pest light source trapping device. Background Technology

[0002] Pest control is an important part of agricultural production, storage, and transportation. It involves using scientific methods and means to prevent and control the occurrence and development of pest populations in order to protect the sustainable development of agriculture, forestry, and the human living environment.

[0003] Existing pest control methods are mainly divided into chemical control and physical control. Chemical control, also known as pesticide control, uses chemical agents such as insecticides, fungicides, and acaricides to control diseases, pests, and rodent damage to plants and animals. However, long-term spraying of pesticides can increase pest resistance and pollute soil and water sources. Physical control has the advantages of safety and environmental friendliness, making it the preferred control measure. Sticky traps are a commonly used device in pest trapping. The trapping method mainly involves inserting sticks with sticky traps into the field to trap pests. However, this method requires manual replacement of the sticky traps, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In addition, the trapping effect is not very targeted and the trapping effect is not good. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above problems, this application provides an automatic plate-changing insect light source trapping device to solve the technical problems of time-consuming and labor-intensive manual plate replacement, as well as poor trapping targeting and poor trapping effect.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, in a first aspect, this application provides an automatic plate-changing insect light source trapping device, including an insect trapping box and a pole. The pole is fixed below the insect trapping box. The insect trapping box includes an electrical box, an outer casing, and a plate-changing mechanism. The electrical box and the plate-changing mechanism are located inside the outer casing. An insect-attracting lamp is provided at the bottom of the electrical box. The outer casing has an insect inlet. The plate-changing mechanism is located below the insect inlet. The plate-changing mechanism includes a motor, an active plate-sticking wheel, a driven plate-sticking wheel, a plate, multiple positioning rods, and an active pulley. The driven pulley, track, and support plate, along with the motor, multiple positioning rods, drive pulley, driven pulley, and driven adhesive plate wheel, are fixed on the support plate. The output end of the motor is connected to the drive pulley. The drive pulley and driven pulley are connected via the track drive. The driven pulley is connected to the drive adhesive plate wheel drively. The adhesive plate is wound around the surface of the driven adhesive plate wheel, and the end of the adhesive plate extends sequentially along multiple positioning rods and is wound around the surface of the drive adhesive plate wheel. The electrical box is used to control the insect-attracting lamp and the motor.

[0006] In one embodiment of this utility model, two positioning rods are provided, one positioning rod is fixed to the left side of the support plate, and the other positioning rod is fixed to the right side of the support plate, with the two positioning rods parallel to each other.

[0007] In one embodiment of this utility model, a positioning rod is provided with two adhesive plate positioning rings, which are respectively disposed at both ends of the positioning rod.

[0008] In one embodiment of this utility model, both the active sticking plate wheel and the driven sticking plate wheel are provided with sticking plate locking rings, which are installed at the end of the sticking plate.

[0009] In one embodiment of this utility model, the outer box is provided with a cabinet door, which is located below the insect inlet.

[0010] In one embodiment of this utility model, the electrical box is provided with a battery and a first controller. The battery is electrically connected to the first controller, and the first controller is electrically connected to the insect-attracting lamp and the plate-changing mechanism.

[0011] In one embodiment of this utility model, the top, left and right sides of the insect trap are provided with solar panels, and the electrical box is also provided with a second controller. The solar panels are electrically connected to the second controller, and the second controller is electrically connected to the battery.

[0012] In one embodiment of this utility model, the insect inlet is trapezoidal in shape.

[0013] Unlike existing technologies, the technical solution of this application uses an insect-attracting lamp to attract pests into the outer box through the inlet, where they attach to sticky plates. After each day's trapping ends, the plate-changing mechanism operates automatically to change the plates: a motor drives a drive pulley to rotate, which in turn drives a driven pulley to rotate synchronously via a track. The rotation of the driven pulley further drives the drive sticky plate wheel to rotate, thereby pulling the sticky plates. The sticky plate portion with pests attached is wound onto the drive sticky plate wheel, while the driven sticky plate wheel releases new sticky plates, completing the plate-changing operation. This automatic plate-changing allows for long-term unattended operation, saving time and labor. Furthermore, the insect-attracting lamp's wavelength and operating time can be adjusted according to the physiological characteristics of different pests, enhancing the trapping specificity and improving trapping efficiency.

[0014] The above description of the utility model is merely an overview of the technical solution of this application. In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this application and to implement it based on the description and drawings, and to make the above-mentioned objectives and other objectives, features and advantages of this application easier to understand, the following description is provided in conjunction with the specific embodiments and drawings of this application.

[0035] According to some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment relates to an automatic plate-changing insect light source trapping device, including an insect trapping box 2 and a pole 3. The pole 3 is fixed below the insect trapping box 2. The insect trapping box 2 includes an electrical box 21, an outer box 22, and a plate-changing mechanism 23. The electrical box 21 and the plate-changing mechanism 23 are located inside the outer box 22. An insect-attracting lamp 214 is provided at the bottom of the electrical box 21. The outer box 22 has an insect inlet 221. The plate-changing mechanism 23 is located below the insect inlet 221. The plate-changing mechanism 23 includes a motor 2307, an active sticking plate wheel 2302, a driven sticking plate wheel 2303, a sticking plate 2311, multiple positioning rods 2304, an active pulley 2308, a driven pulley 2309, a track 2310, and a support. Plate 2301, motor 2307, multiple positioning rods 2304, drive pulley 2308, driven pulley 2309 and driven sticking plate wheel 2303 are fixed on support plate 2301. The output end of motor 2307 is connected to drive pulley 2308. Drive pulley 2308 and driven pulley 2309 are connected by track 2310. Driven pulley 2309 is connected to drive sticking plate wheel 2302. Sticking plate 2311 is wound around the surface of driven sticking plate wheel 2303. The end of sticking plate 2311 extends along multiple positioning rods 2304 in sequence and is wound around the surface of drive sticking plate wheel 2302. Electrical box 21 is used to control insect-attracting lamp 214 and motor 2307.

[0036] In actual use, the plate-changing time can be set according to needs. After fixing the device to a cement base in the field and connecting the wiring, the equipment will operate automatically. The specific working process of this device is as follows: When the preset time is reached, the electrical box 21 controls the insect-attracting lamp 214 to turn on. Insects are attracted by the insect-attracting lamp 214 and fly in through the insect inlet 221 of the outer box 22, attaching to the sticky plate 2311. After the daily trapping ends, the plate-changing mechanism 23 will operate automatically. The motor 2307 drives the active pulley 2308 to rotate. The active pulley 2308 drives the driven pulley 2309 to rotate synchronously through the track 2310. The rotation of the driven pulley 2309 further drives the active sticky plate wheel 2302 to rotate, thereby pulling the sticky plate 2311. The portion of the sticky plate 2311 with attached insects is wound onto the active sticky plate wheel 2302. At the same time, the driven sticky plate wheel 2303 releases a new sticky plate 2311, completing the plate-changing operation. In this way, the plate changing mechanism 23 can automatically change plates, eliminating the need for long-term staff to be on duty, saving manpower and significantly reducing labor costs; by adjusting the on-time of the insect-attracting lamp 214 and selecting different wavelengths of the insect-attracting lamp 214, pests can be captured more specifically.

[0037] The insect-attracting lamp 214 works primarily based on the phototaxis of insects. Insects' retinas contain a special pigment that absorbs light of a specific wavelength. When an insect senses the light signal emitted by this pigment, it transmits the signal to its nervous system via its optic nerve, thereby directing its locomotor organs to move towards the light source. Insect phototaxis is selective; the appropriate wavelength can be chosen based on the target insect species. In some embodiments, the insect-attracting lamp 214 uses 330-400nm violet and ultraviolet light waves, which can attract most phototactic insects.

[0038] This device can adjust the activation time of the insect-attracting lamp 214 according to the physiological characteristics of the insects to attract insects with high activity levels during that time to fly into the insect trapping box 2, thereby improving the trapping efficiency. On the other hand, it can select the corresponding wavelength of light according to the type of insect to be trapped.

[0039] In this embodiment, the adhesive plate 2311 is a roll-type adhesive plate 2311, with a hollow paper tube inside that is fitted onto the driven adhesive plate wheel 2303. One end of the adhesive plate 2311 is stretched out and passes over two positioning rods 2304, while the other end is fixed to the active adhesive plate wheel 2302 by winding.

[0040] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, two positioning rods 2304 are provided, one positioning rod 2304 is fixed to the left part of the support plate 2301, and the other positioning rod 2304 is fixed to the right part of the support plate 2301, and the two positioning rods 2304 are parallel to each other.

[0041] In this way, the sticky plate 2311 can be easily wrapped around the surface of the active sticky plate wheel 2302 along the guide of the positioning rod 2304. The two parallel positioning rods 2304 firmly spread out the sticky plate 2311, making it easy for pests to attach to the sticky plate 2311.

[0042] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, a positioning rod 2304 is provided with two adhesive plate positioning rings 2305, and the two adhesive plate positioning rings 2305 are respectively disposed at both ends of the positioning rod 2304.

[0043] Thus, the adhesive plate positioning ring 2305 is fitted onto the positioning rod 2304 to adjust the front and rear position of the adhesive plate 2311 and prevent the adhesive plate 2311 from tilting. When the plate changing mechanism 23 is running, the adhesive plate 2311 will move on the positioning rod 2304, and the adhesive plate positioning ring 2305 restricts the adhesive plate 2311 within the fixed range of the positioning rod 2304, so that the adhesive plate 2311 remains stable when moving.

[0044] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, both the active sticking plate wheel 2302 and the driven sticking plate wheel 2303 are provided with sticking plate locking rings 2306, which are installed at the end of the sticking plate 2311.

[0045] In this way, the adhesive plate locking ring 2306 presses the rolled adhesive plate 2311 onto the active adhesive plate wheel 2302 and the driven adhesive plate wheel 2303, preventing the adhesive plate 2311 on the active adhesive plate wheel 2302 and the driven adhesive plate wheel 2303 from loosening and rotating when the device is not running.

[0046] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, the surface of the outer box 22 is provided with a cabinet door 222, which is located below the insect inlet 221.

[0047] This makes it easy to open cabinet door 222 and replace the used adhesive board 2311.

[0048] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, the electrical box 21 is provided with a battery 213 and a first controller 212. The battery 213 is electrically connected to the first controller 212, and the first controller 212 is electrically connected to the insect-attracting lamp 214 and the plate-changing mechanism 23 respectively.

[0049] The first controller 212 is used to control the start and end times of all electronic components in the insect trap 2. When the preset time is reached, the first controller 212 starts the insect-attracting lamp 214 and controls the running time of the plate changing mechanism 23.

[0050] This facilitates the control of the first controller 212 to activate the insect-attracting lamp 214 and the motor 2307. Furthermore, the insect-attracting lamp 214 and the motor 2307 can be timed, such as automatically turning on at fixed times during the night. This intelligent setting saves on manual operation.

[0051] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, the top, left and right sides of the insect trap 2 are provided with solar panels 1, and the electrical box 21 is also provided with a second controller 211. The solar panels 1 are electrically connected to the second controller 211, and the second controller 211 is electrically connected to the battery 213.

[0052] This allows for longer periods of sunlight reception, providing more energy to the device. Solar panel 1 converts solar energy into electrical energy, which is then controlled by the second controller 211 and stored in battery 213. The electrical energy is then used to power the insect-attracting lamp and the panel-changing mechanism, maintaining the device's operation. The second controller 211 is a solar energy controller, whose function is to control the maximum voltage provided by solar panel 1 within a suitable range for battery 213, preventing current overshoot and damage to battery 213's lifespan. Solar panel 1 converts solar energy into electrical energy, which is then controlled by the solar energy controller and stored in battery 213.

[0053] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, the insect inlet 221 is trapezoidal in shape.

[0054] Thus, the trapezoidal shape conforms to the flight patterns of some insects, making it easier to catch pests.

[0055] In some embodiments, the insect inlet 221 can be made into different shapes according to the flight mode of different insects to accommodate the entry of the corresponding insects into the insect trap. For example, according to the flight mode of the diamondback moth, the insect inlet 221 is set into a trapezoidal shape, similar to the shape of an insect boat-shaped trap, which can better capture the diamondback moth.

For example, in the claims, any of the claimed embodiments can be used in any combination.
