Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of insect trapping equipment, specifically an intelligent trapping device. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, there are many types of insect trapping devices. For example, the "Insect Trapper" disclosed in Publication No. CN110122448B features a support rod insertion hole at the center of the bottom of the bottom cylinder. A central positioning column is fixedly installed on the bottom plate of the bottom cylinder at the corresponding position of the support rod insertion hole. The central positioning column is a hollow cylindrical structure, with its bottom connected to the support rod insertion hole and a cover movably installed on its top. A support ring is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the bottom cylinder. A perforated disc is fitted around the outside of the central positioning column above the support ring, and a sponge ring for carrying attractant is fitted around the outside of the central positioning column above the perforated disc. This design improves the attractant's killing effect and maintains its insecticidal effect for a longer period. Furthermore, the structure is simple, the overall design cost is low, and it can be widely applied. It will play a positive and important role in green pest control, precision pesticide application, and reducing pesticide use in my country's current tobacco production.

[0003] For example, the "Insect Trapper" disclosed in Publication No. CN220799713U includes a collection box for loading insects. The collection box has an opening at the top, and a channel communicating with the opening is located inside the box. Alternating baffles are installed on the upper and lower side walls of the channel. A pheromone lure is located at the bottom of the collection box, and a ventilation mesh is installed on the side wall opposite the opening to allow air to enter the box and spread the pheromone through the channel. A movable adhesive plate is also provided at the bottom of the collection box to trap insects entering the box. Compared with existing technologies, this method does not use insecticides, avoiding harm to minors due to accidental ingestion, thus improving the safety of insect trapping. Furthermore, the structure is simple.

[0004] In the above-mentioned technical solutions, insects are usually lured by trapping lights, but the process of capturing them after being lured is quite difficult and troublesome. In addition, the existing technology can only achieve the trapping of insects, but cannot identify them by taking pictures, so it cannot reasonably achieve the trapping and capture of insects.

[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, it is necessary to develop a reasonably structured intelligent trapping device that can trap and photograph insects. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing an intelligent trapping device; its technical solution is as follows:

[0007] An intelligent trapping device includes a trapping box with a support at the bottom and a funnel-shaped feeding hopper plate at the top, with a feeding port on the feeding hopper plate. A trapping frame is located at the top of the feeding hopper plate, and the area below is designated as a shooting area. A vertically mounted trapping light is positioned in the middle of the trapping frame, and V-shaped plates are installed at the top and bottom of both sides of the trapping light. A transparent impact plate is installed between the upper and lower V-shaped plates. Insects are attracted by the light and fly towards the trapping light. After hitting the transparent impact plate, they fall onto the feeding hopper plate below and enter the shooting area through the feeding port.

[0008] The shooting area is equipped with a receiving cylinder corresponding to the feeding port. The receiving cylinder is fitted onto the feeding port. Below the receiving cylinder is an inclined dropping plate. Below the dropping plate is a flipping plate. Above the flipping plate is a camera device. Below the flipping plate is a discharge port. Below the discharge port is a storage bin. Insects fall from the receiving cylinder onto the dropping plate, then from the dropping plate onto the flipping plate. After being photographed by the camera device on the flipping plate, they are flipped by the flipping plate and fall into the discharge port, and then from the discharge port into the storage bin below.

[0009] Furthermore, the upper end of the trapping frame is provided with an installation chamber, in which components for use with the trapping light are installed.

[0010] Furthermore, the material discharge plate is also provided with elongated material discharge gaps, which are evenly spaced and the size of the material discharge gaps is smaller than the size of the insects to be trapped.

[0011] Furthermore, a debris area is set below the material discharge plate, and debris falling from the discharge port falls through the material discharge gap. Furthermore, a camera box is set above the flip plate, and the camera device and its supporting components are installed in the camera box.

[0012] Furthermore, a fill light is also installed inside the camera box, and the fill light is directed towards the flip plate below; a flip motor is connected to the flip plate.

[0013] Beneficial effects: This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1) This device uses V-shaped plates on both sides and a trapping light in the middle. A transparent impact plate is installed on the V-shaped plates. By using the phototaxis of insects, the insects are attracted to the transparent impact plate and then fall into the feed hopper plate below, thus trapping the insects. The structure is reasonable and easy to use.

[0015] 2) The lower shooting area of ​​this device is equipped with an inclined dropping plate and a flipping plate. A camera and a supplementary light are installed above the flipping plate to shoot and record the insects that enter. The data can then be transmitted to the cloud for identification. Afterwards, the insects can be stored by flipping the flipping plate. The structure is ingenious and easy to use.

[0016] 3) The material drop plate in this device is placed at an angle, and there are evenly spaced material drop gaps on the material drop plate. When this device is used, rainwater and some small particles and debris will inevitably fall into the shooting area. Therefore, material drop gaps are set on the material drop plate so that rainwater or small particles and debris can fall through the gaps to prevent them from affecting the shooting. The structure is reasonable. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. These embodiments are implemented under the premise of the technical solution of the present invention. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, an intelligent trapping device includes a trapping box 1, with a support 101 at the bottom and a funnel-shaped feeding hopper plate 2 at the top, with a feeding port 3 on the feeding hopper plate 2. A trapping frame 4 is installed at the top of the feeding hopper plate 2 in the trapping box 1, and the area below is set as a shooting area 5. A vertically installed trapping light 6 is installed in the middle of the trapping frame 4, and V-shaped plates 7 are installed on the upper and lower sides of the trapping light 6, with a transparent collision plate 8 installed between the upper and lower V-shaped plates 7. Insects are attracted by the light and fly towards the trapping light 6. After hitting the transparent collision plate 8, they fall onto the feeding hopper plate 2 below and enter the shooting area 5 through the feeding port 3.

[0025] Within the shooting area 5, a receiving cylinder 9 is provided, corresponding to the position of the feeding port 3. The receiving cylinder 9 is fitted onto the feeding port 3. Below the receiving cylinder 9, an inclined dropping plate 10 is provided. Below the dropping plate 10, a flipping plate 11 is provided. Above the flipping plate 11, a camera device 12 is provided. Below the flipping plate 11, a discharge port 13 is provided. Below the discharge port 13, a storage bin 103 is provided. Insects fall from the receiving cylinder 9 onto the dropping plate 10, and then from the dropping plate 10 onto the flipping plate 11. After being photographed by the camera device 12 on the flipping plate 11, they are flipped by the flipping plate 11 and fall into the discharge port 13, and then from the discharge port 13 into the storage bin 103 below.

[0026] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the upper end of the trapping frame 4 is also provided with an installation chamber 14, in which components that work in conjunction with the trapping lamp 6 are installed.

[0027] The material discharge plate 10 is also provided with a long strip of material discharge gap 18. The material discharge gap 18 is evenly spaced and the size of the material discharge gap 18 is smaller than the size of the insect to be trapped.

[0028] The area below the discharge plate 10 is set as a debris area 19. Debris falling from the discharge port 3 falls further down through the discharge gap 18. A camera box 20 is set above the flip plate 11. The camera device 12 and its supporting components are installed in the camera box 20.

[0029] The camera box 20 is also equipped with a fill light 21, which is directed toward the flip plate 11 below; the flip plate 11 is connected to a flip motor.

[0030] The specific working process of this device is as follows: The upper end of the trapping box is equipped with a trapping lamp, which is positioned between the V-shaped plates on both sides. A transparent impact plate is installed between the upper and lower V-shaped plates. Insects fly towards the trapping lamp due to phototaxis. The transparent impact plate acts as a barrier. After colliding with the transparent impact plate, the insects fall onto the feed hopper plate and then fall into the receiving cylinder from the feed inlet on the feed hopper plate. They then fall down the inclined feed plate onto the flipping plate. A camera box is installed above the flipping plate, which contains a camera device and a supplementary light. After being illuminated by the supplementary light, the camera device takes pictures of the falling insects. Then, the flipping plate is flipped by the flipping motor, and the insects fall into the feed inlet below and then into the storage bin.

[0031] In the above-mentioned specific working process, firstly, transparent impact plates are installed on the V-shaped plates on both sides of the upper trapping frame. The transparent impact plates, together with the trapping lights, can attract insects, causing the insects to hit the transparent impact plates and fall onto the feed hopper plate below.

[0032] Furthermore, the material discharge plate in this device is placed at an angle, and there are evenly spaced material discharge gaps on the material discharge plate. In actual use, rainwater and some small particles and debris will inevitably fall into the shooting area. Therefore, the material discharge gaps are set on the material discharge plate so that the rainwater or small particles and debris can fall through the gaps to prevent them from affecting the shooting. The structure is reasonable.

[0033] The above-described specific embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model or the scope of the claims. All equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of protection of this utility model patent application should be included within the scope of this utility model patent application.
