[0023] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] Combined with appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 6 A biomimetic termite trap includes a box body 1 and a box cover 2. The side of the box body 1 has several evenly distributed entrance holes 8. A feeding device is fixedly installed on the bottom surface inside the box body 1. The feeding device includes at least one feeding box 3 and a feeding agent 4 placed in the feeding box 3. A monitoring device is fixedly installed inside the box body 1. The monitoring device includes an infrared sensor 5 and a data transmission module 6 connected to it. The data transmission module 6 is used to transmit the data monitored by the infrared sensor 5 to an external device. A killing device is installed inside the box body 1. The killing device includes a sticky insect board 7 and an insecticide release mechanism.
[0025] The lid 2 has a ventilation device at its center, which includes a ventilation hole 9 and an insect-proof net 10 inside the ventilation hole 9. The bait box 3 has a lid 11 at its top for easy replacement of the bait attractant 4, and the surface of the bait box 3 has multiple ventilation holes 12 for the release of the bait attractant 4's odor. The box body 1 also has a humidity sensor 13 and a temperature sensor 14 fixedly installed inside for monitoring the environmental parameters inside the box body 1. The data from the humidity sensor 13 and the temperature sensor 14 are transmitted to external devices through the data transmission module 6.
[0026] The sticky insect board 7 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface inside the box 1 and is distributed in a ring on the outside of the bait box 3. The sticky insect board 7 is brown or black, colors that attract termites. The insecticide release mechanism includes a storage container 15 fixedly installed outside the box 1. A metering pump 16 is connected to the upper end of the storage container 15. It also includes a ring-shaped atomizing pipe 17 fixedly installed inside the box 1. Several atomizing nozzles 18 are provided at the bottom of the ring-shaped atomizing pipe 17. The ring-shaped atomizing pipe 17 is connected to the liquid outlet of the metering pump 16.
[0027] The working principle of this biomimetic termite trap is as follows: The side of the trap body 1 has several evenly distributed entrance holes 8 to facilitate termite entry. The odor emitted by the attractant 4 is released outwards through the ventilation holes 12 on the surface of the attractant box 3, attracting termites to enter the trap body 1 through the entrance holes 8. An infrared sensor 5 in the monitoring device monitors the entry and activity of termites in real time. When a termite enters the monitoring range of the infrared sensor 5, the sensor detects its presence and transmits the monitoring data to the connected data transmission module 6. The data transmission module 6 then transmits the data to an external device, allowing the user to monitor the termite activity inside the trap in real time. When termites are attracted by the attractant and approach the attractant box 3, they easily come into contact with the sticky insect board 7. Because the surface of the sticky insect board 7 is coated with an adhesive substance, the termites will adhere to it upon contact, thus achieving trapping and killing. When the infrared sensor 5 detects that the number of termites inside the box has reached a certain level, or according to the control signal sent by the user through an external device, the metering pump 16 operates, drawing insecticide from the storage container 15 and spraying it out through the atomizing nozzle 18 via the annular atomizing pipe 17, forming an atomized insecticide to kill the termites. A ventilation device is located in the center of the box lid 2, with ventilation holes 9 ensuring air circulation inside the box, keeping the environment fresh and facilitating termite entry. An insect-proof net 10 is installed inside the ventilation holes 9 to prevent other insects or foreign objects from entering the box 1 through the ventilation holes 9, avoiding interference with the trapping process. A humidity sensor 13 and a temperature sensor 14 are also fixedly installed inside the box 1 to monitor the humidity and temperature inside the box, respectively. The humidity sensor 13 and temperature sensor 14 transmit the monitored data to an external device via the data transmission module 6. Users can use this data to understand whether the environment inside the box is suitable for termite activity, thereby better adjusting the trapping strategy. For example, if the humidity or temperature is unsuitable, users can take corresponding measures, such as adjusting the placement position, to ensure the trapping effect.
[0028] The usage process of this biomimetic termite trapping box is as follows:
[0029] 1. Installation Preparation: Place the termite trapping bionic box in areas where termites may appear, such as near the foundation of a building or near a pile of wood. Ensure that the box is placed stably. Check that all components of the box 1 are intact, including whether the entrance hole 8 is unobstructed, whether the bait box 3 is securely installed, whether the infrared sensor 5, the data transmission module 6, the sticky insect trap 7, and the insecticide release mechanism are all functioning properly, whether the ventilation device is unblocked or damaged, and whether the humidity sensor 13 and the temperature sensor 14 are properly connected and working.
[0030] 2. Place the attractant: Open the lid 11 at the top of the attractant box 3, place an appropriate amount of attractant 4 inside the attractant box 3, and then close the lid 11. Ensure that the type and quantity of attractant 4 are suitable for the habits and population size of the local termites to improve the attraction effect.
[0031] 3. Start Monitoring and Data Transmission: Turn on the data transmission module 6 to connect and pair it with external devices such as mobile phones and computers. Ensure that the infrared sensor 5, humidity sensor 13, and temperature sensor 14 can accurately transmit the monitored data to the external devices. Users can view various data inside the enclosure and termite activity in real time through external devices.
[0032] 4. Termite extermination: When a large number of termites are detected, the insecticide release mechanism is activated, and the insecticide is sprayed into the inside of the box to kill the termites inside or on the sticky insect board 7.
[0033] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
