Abstract
Description
An airport pest control device Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to airport bird control equipment, and more particularly to an airport insect control device. Background Technology
[0002] Bird control at airports should adhere to the principle of "prevention first, comprehensive management," creating ecological disadvantages in the flight area and eliminating factors that attract birds to the airport's soil from the source. For example, Beijing Capital International Airport is a typical grassland ecosystem with abundant grass species, providing a good environment for insect activity. Insects, as food for birds, attract them to the airport area.
[0003] In controlling the bird food chain, insect control is a crucial aspect of ecological environment management. The airfield has adopted outdoor insecticidal lamps to enhance insect control, achieving some success in eliminating lepidopteran insects. These lamps combine insect monitoring and extermination functions. Currently, most insecticidal lamps used at airports are general-purpose agricultural and forestry lamps, which have a single light source and cannot effectively target and kill all types of insects. Furthermore, their power is relatively low, resulting in a relatively small effective range for insect control. Additionally, the insecticidal lamps used at airports should also take into account the risks of fire and FOD (fouling odor) contamination. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to propose an airport pest control device to improve the effectiveness of insect control in airport areas.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is: an airport insect control device, comprising a top plate 10, a container 20, an insecticidal lamp 30, and an insecticidal cage 40. The insecticidal lamp is installed on the top plate 10, the container 20 is located below the top plate 10, and the insecticidal cage 40 is located between the top plate 10 and the container 20. The insecticidal lamp includes a black light insecticidal lamp with a wavelength of 320nm to 390nm, a blue light insecticidal lamp with a wavelength of 350nm to 490nm, a yellow light insecticidal lamp with a wavelength of 625nm to 670nm, a green light insecticidal lamp with a wavelength of 555nm to 610nm, and a red light insecticidal lamp with a wavelength of 500nm to 565nm.
[0006] Furthermore, a preferred configuration of the insecticidal lamp is that the top plate has three insecticidal lamp ports 11, and the insecticidal lamp 30 is movably connected and installed on the insecticidal lamp ports.
[0007] Furthermore, to facilitate the cleaning of insect corpses, the container 20 is equipped with a storage drawer 21 for collecting insect corpses, and the storage drawer 21 is installed inside the drawer opening 22 of the container.
[0008] Furthermore, in order to effectively collect the lured insects, the container is provided with a storage opening 23, which is located above the storage drawer 21, and the storage opening 23 is provided with a conical chute 24.
[0009] Furthermore, one connection structure between the container and the top plate is that the container 20 is provided with a column 25, and the top plate 10 is installed on the top of the column 25.
[0010] Furthermore, in order to securely connect the container to the top plate, the top plate 10 is provided with a column joint 12, the column joint 12 is provided with a clamp hole 13, and the column 25 is fixed in the clamp hole 13.
[0011] Furthermore, in order to securely install the insect-killing device on the ground, the bottom of the container is provided with a support 50, the support is provided with a grounding base 51, and three circumferentially distributed legs 52 are provided around the grounding base 51, each leg having a pointed tip 53 that inserts into the ground.
[0012] Furthermore, to make the structure robust, the top plate 10 is a metal structure, the container 20 is a metal structure, and the insect-killing cage 40 is a metal mesh that kills insects by high-voltage electric shock.
[0013] Furthermore, to ensure a stable power supply, the airport pest control device is powered by solar panels with a power output of no less than 800W.
[0014] Furthermore, to avoid glare interfering with flights, the airport pest control device is equipped with a control device for remotely controlling the intensity of the insecticidal lamp light source.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: It employs multi-wavelength insecticidal lamps, covering insecticidal needs across most time periods, attracting and killing various types of insects. The spectrum selection can be adjusted according to seasonal changes at the airport, thereby achieving the goal of killing multiple insects, reducing pest infestations at the airport, and further reducing bird attraction, thus reducing bird strikes. The metal structure avoids fire risks, and the sturdy support and connection structure reduce potential hazards such as field-to-air (FOD) pollution.

[0022] Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of the present invention installed on the ground. Detailed Implementation
[0023] Example 1:
[0024] As shown in Figures 1 to 6, an airport pest control device includes a top plate 10, a container 20, an insecticidal lamp 30, and an insecticidal cage 40.
[0025] In this embodiment, five types of insecticidal lamps are configured for the insecticidal device: black light insecticidal lamps with wavelengths of 320nm to 390nm, blue light insecticidal lamps with wavelengths of 350nm to 490nm, yellow light insecticidal lamps with wavelengths of 625nm to 670nm, green light insecticidal lamps with wavelengths of 555nm to 610nm, and red light insecticidal lamps with wavelengths of 500nm to 565nm.
[0026] There is indeed a certain correlation between the wavelength of light from insecticidal lamps and the phototaxis of insects. However, different insects have different sensitivities to different wavelengths of light, and the actual effect of insecticidal lamps is also affected by factors such as environment, light intensity, and insect density.
[0027] Black light insecticidal lamps use ultraviolet light, which has a strong attraction to adult Lepidoptera (such as diamondback moth, cotton bollworm, and beet armyworm) and Coleoptera (such as scarab beetles). Sensitive insects include: aphids, leafhoppers, planthoppers, mirid bugs, stink bugs, green scarab beetles, and mosquitoes.
[0028] Blue light insecticidal lamps are strongly phototactic to homoptera (aphids, leafhoppers, planthoppers) and hemiptera (migratory bugs, stink bugs), but less effective against lepidopteran and coleopteran insects. Sensitive insects include aphids, leafhoppers, planthoppers, migratory bugs, and mosquitoes.
[0029] Yellow light insecticidal lamps attract homoptera and hemiptera pests because they are sensitive to the yellow light band, but have limited effect on lepidopteran and coleopteran insects. Sensitive insects include aphids, leafhoppers, planthoppers, and mirid bugs.
[0030] Green light insecticidal lamps are somewhat attractive to some homoptera and hemiptera pests, but less effective against lepidopterans and coleopterans. Sensitive insects include: aphids, leafhoppers, planthoppers, mirid bugs, and mosquitoes (some species).
[0031] Red light insecticidal lamps have some effect on the phototaxis of mosquitoes, but are less effective on other pests. This may be because some insects are not sensitive to long-wavelength light. Sensitive insects include: mosquitoes (some species) and mirid bugs (at specific developmental stages).
[0032] Taking Beijing Capital International Airport as an example, the main insects include: aphids, leafhoppers, planthoppers, mirid bugs, stink bugs, diamondback moths, bollworms, beet armyworms, green beetles, and mosquitoes.
[0033] Aphids, leafhoppers, and planthoppers are sensitive to blue light insecticidal lamps, yellow light insecticidal lamps, and green light insecticidal lamps.
[0034] Mirid bugs are sensitive to blue, yellow, green, and red light insecticidal lamps.
[0035] Blue light insecticidal lamps and yellow light insecticidal lamps are sensitive.
[0036] Diamondback moth, cotton bollworm, beet armyworm, and green beetle are sensitive to black light insecticidal lamps.
[0037] Mosquitoes are sensitive to black light insecticidal lamps, blue light insecticidal lamps, and red light insecticidal lamps.
[0038] The insecticidal lamp 10 is installed on the top plate 10, which has three insecticidal lamp openings 11, allowing for the simultaneous installation of three different types of insecticidal lamps. The insecticidal lamp 30 is movably connected to the lamp opening. Different combinations of insecticidal lamps can be changed according to the insect activity patterns in different seasons and at different times. Installing too many insecticidal lamps will consume a large amount of electricity, and mixing too many different wavelengths of light will affect the trapping effect. Installing a single insecticidal lamp is also not conducive to improving the efficiency of insect trapping. Based on practical experience in pest control, setting up three insecticidal lamps is a preferred solution.
[0039] The container 20 is located below the top plate 10, and the insect-killing cage 40 is located between the top plate 10 and the container 20.
[0040] The insect trap 40 is a metal mesh that kills insects by electrocution. The insect trap 40 is arranged around three insecticidal lamps, and kills the insects attracted by the lamps by electrocution.
[0041] The container 20 has a drawer 21 for collecting insect carcasses, which is installed inside the drawer opening 22 of the container. The container also has a storage opening 23 located above the drawer 21, and this opening has a conical chute 24. Insects killed by the electric shock from the insect-killing cage 40 fall onto the conical chute 24, then slide down it, passing through the storage opening 23 into the drawer 21. The insect carcasses can be removed by pulling out the drawer 21.
[0042] In this embodiment, the container 20 is a square box with chamfered corners, and four uprights 25 are provided at the four corners of the container. The top plate 10 is installed on the top of the uprights 25. The top plate 10 and the container 10 are connected in a movable manner. To ensure a stable connection between the top plate 10 and the container 10, the top plate 10 is provided with an upright connector 12, and the upright connector 12 is provided with clamping holes 13. The uprights 25 are fixed in the clamping holes 13 by bolts 14. The top plate 10 can be removed to replace the insecticidal lamp and to remove the insecticidal cage 40.
[0043] The bottom of the container is equipped with a support 50. The top plate 10, the container 20, and the insect-killing cage 40 are mounted on the ground via the support 50, typically on grass in airport environments. The support has a grounding base 51, around which are three circumferentially distributed legs 52, each with a pointed end 53 that inserts into the ground. The pointed ends 53 of the three legs can penetrate the grass to a certain depth, and the central grounding base 51 rests on the ground, ensuring the airport insect-killing device is securely held in place. Furthermore, both the top plate 10 and the container 20 are made of metal, which can withstand strong winds and prevent them from being blown away or drifting, thus avoiding FOD (fouling debris) that could endanger aircraft safety.
[0044] To facilitate installation in the open grass of the airport, the insect control system is powered by solar panels. Based on practical experience, the power supply should be no less than 800W to ensure sufficient power for the insecticidal lamps.
[0045] The airport pest control system is equipped with a control device that can remotely control the switching on and off of the insecticidal lamps and the intensity of the light source. When necessary, it can prevent the light from causing glare to pilots.
[0046] Traditional insecticidal lamps are applicable to relatively limited scenarios, such as woodlands, orchards, and farmland, and cannot adjust their color according to changes in dominant insect species. Airports have complex vegetation environments with diverse insect species, and the dominant insect species change depending on location and season, making traditional insecticidal lamps completely inadequate for airport pest control requirements. This invention features a multi-spectral light source with three replaceable light source holders that can be used individually or in combination. It also allows for programming the use of various light sources according to different seasons and environments. The wider the spectral range, the more insect species are attracted. This broad-spectrum insecticidal lamp has a significant killing effect on common pests.
[0047] The insect-killing lamp can automatically control its start and stop based on the light intensity, and it can also be programmed to control its start and stop. The light source intensity of the insect-killing lamp is adjustable to avoid glare interfering with flights.
[0048] Traditional insecticidal lamps have low power and are insufficient in killing insects. This new type of lamp is equipped with a large-capacity solar battery, which effectively ensures high power and long battery life while utilizing clean energy.
[0049] It features a drawer-style storage box, making it easy to clean up the insects that have been killed.
[0050] Traditional insecticidal lamps use fibrous materials for their insect-catching containers, which are prone to fire and pose a FOD (foul-of-disturbance) risk if damaged. This new invention uses a metal container, avoiding the risk of flammable materials, and its robust structure reduces the risk of FOD.
