Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural pest control technology, specifically a solar-powered insect trap for orchard pest control. Background Technology
[0002] Pest control in orchards is a crucial aspect of agricultural production. While traditional chemical pesticides are highly effective, long-term use can lead to environmental pollution, pesticide residues, and increased pest resistance. In recent years, physical control methods have gained increasing attention due to their environmentally friendly and pollution-free characteristics. Among these, solar-powered pest traps, as a highly efficient and energy-saving pest control tool, are widely used in orchards.
[0003] However, existing solar-powered traps have the following problems: First, the height of the trapping lamps is fixed, and they cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the growth height of the fruit trees or the activity range of the pests, which affects the trapping effect; second, cleaning and maintenance are inconvenient, especially the insect bodies accumulated after the trapping lamps have been used for a long time, which need to be cleaned manually, and the fixed height design increases the difficulty of operation; third, the fixing method is simple, and it is easy to tip over in soft or windy orchard environments, resulting in insufficient stability.
[0004] Therefore, there is a need for a solar-powered trap that can solve the above problems, thereby improving pest control efficiency and reducing maintenance costs. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a solar-powered insect trap for orchard pest control, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A solar-powered pest trap for orchards includes a base. The base is characterized by: a square support rod fixedly connected to its top edge; a solar panel fixedly connected to the top of the square support rod at an angle; a storage battery, electrically connected to the square support rod via a bracket, positioned below the solar panel to store the electrical energy generated by the solar panel; at least one set of trapping lights slidably mounted on the side of the square support rod along its height; the trapping lights are electrically connected to the storage battery via a controller; and the trapping lights are connected to the square support rod via a height adjustment component, which allows the square support rod to be adjusted up and down to change its height, facilitating manual cleaning of the trapping lights.
[0008] Preferably, the trapping light assembly includes a tripod slidably mounted on the side of a square support rod, with a trapping light suspended at each of the two overhanging corners of the tripod.
[0009] Preferably, the side of the square support rod forms a T-shaped groove extending along the height, and a corresponding T-shaped block is formed at the non-suspended corner position of the tripod. The T-shaped groove and the T-shaped block slide together to realize the sliding connection between the trapping light assembly and the side of the square support rod.
[0010] Preferably, the height adjustment component includes a motor fixedly installed in a square support rod, the motor being connected to one end of an adjustment rope via a winding drum, and the other end of the adjustment rope being fixedly connected to a T-shaped block.
[0011] Preferably, the square support rod also has a recess on its side, and a winding rod is formed upright in the recess along the height direction. Part of the wire that is electrically connected to the trap light group and the controller is spirally wound around the winding rod, so that this part of the wire has a certain degree of elasticity, so that the wire will not be broken when the trap light group is raised or lowered.
[0012] Preferably, wedge-shaped feet are vertically fixed at the four corners of the base, and the entire solar trap is inserted into the soil in the orchard for fixation through these wedge-shaped feet.
[0013] Preferably, a fixing rod is vertically threaded to the middle of the base, the top of the fixing rod forms a handle, and the bottom of the fixing rod forms a threaded rod, which is screwed into the soil in the orchard to achieve a higher strength of fixation.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. This utility model achieves flexible height adjustment of the trapping light assembly through the sliding cooperation between the height adjustment component and the square support rod. Specifically, the motor drives the winding drum to wind and unwind the adjustment rope, causing the trapping light assembly to slide up and down along the square support rod, thereby adapting to the activity range of fruit trees or pests at different heights and significantly improving the trapping effect. At the same time, the height-adjustable design facilitates manual cleaning of the trapping light assembly, reducing maintenance difficulty.
[0016] 2. The wedge-shaped feet at the four corners of the base of this utility model can be quickly inserted into the soil for initial fixation, while the fixing rod in the middle is screwed into the soil through a threaded rod, further enhancing the overall stability. This double fixing method is particularly suitable for soft or windy orchard environments, effectively preventing the trap from tipping over and ensuring the long-term stable operation of the equipment.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model is a solar-powered insect trap for orchard pest control, mainly used at night. It attracts harmful insects on fruit trees by emitting light and then traps them. Specifically, the solar-powered insect trap includes a base 1, with a square support rod 2 fixedly connected to the top edge of the base 1. A solar panel 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the square support rod 2 at an angle. During installation, the solar panel 3 is positioned so that its front faces the midday or afternoon sun, making it easier to absorb and convert sunlight. A storage battery 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the solar panel 3 via a bracket 4. Specifically, the storage battery 5 is electrically connected to the solar panel 3 and stores the electrical energy converted by the solar panel 3 to provide power to the trapping light assembly 6. Preferably, the solar panel 3 is made of monocrystalline silicon, which has high photoelectric conversion efficiency and is suitable for use in outdoor orchard environments.
[0025] Further optimized, at least one set of trapping lamps 6 is slidably mounted on the side of the square support rod 2 along its height. The trapping lamps 6 are electrically connected to the energy storage battery 5 via a controller 7. The controller 7 can programmably set the switching time and brightness of the trapping lamps 6 to adapt to the activity patterns of different pests. Specifically, the trapping lamps 6 include a tripod 61 slidably mounted on the side of the square support rod 2, with a trapping lamp 62 suspended at each of the two overhanging corners of the tripod 61, as shown in the diagram. Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown. In this embodiment, the trapping lamp 62 uses the most commonly used LED ultraviolet lamp on the market. Suitable LED ultraviolet lamps can be purchased directly, and their wavelength range is suitable for attracting common pests in orchards.
[0026] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a T-shaped groove 21 extending along the height is formed on the side of the square support rod 2, and a corresponding T-shaped block 63 is formed at the non-suspended corner position of the tripod 61, as shown. Figure 3 As shown, the angle connected to the square support rod 2 in the tripod 61 is the non-suspended angle, while the other two are suspended angles. The T-slot 21 and the T-block 63 slide together to achieve a stable sliding connection between the trapping light assembly 6 and the square support rod 2.
[0027] To achieve the raising and lowering of the trapping light assembly 6 and the adjustment of its height, the trapping light assembly 6 is connected to the square support rod 2 via a height adjustment component 8. The height adjustment component 8 allows the square support rod 2 to slide up and down, adjusting its height for easy manual cleaning of the trapping light assembly 6. Specifically, the height adjustment component 8 includes a motor 81 fixedly installed in the square support rod 2. The motor 81 is connected to one end of an adjusting rope 83 via a winding drum 82, and the other end of the adjusting rope 83 is fixedly connected to a T-shaped block 63. By starting the motor 81 via the controller 7, the height of the trapping light assembly 6 can be flexibly adjusted by winding or releasing the adjusting rope 83.
[0028] Preferably, the square support rod 2 also has a recess 22 formed on its side, such as Figure 4 As shown, a winding rod 23 is erected vertically in the recess 22. Part of the wire 9 connecting the trapping light assembly 6 and the controller 7 is spirally wound around the winding rod 23, giving the wire 9 flexibility. This design avoids the risk of the wire 9 breaking when the trapping light assembly 6 is raised or lowered, further improving the reliability of the equipment.
[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, wedge-shaped feet 11 are fixedly connected to each of the four corners of the base 1. The wedge-shaped feet 11 have a sharp, wedge-shaped structure, allowing them to be easily inserted into the orchard soil for initial fixation. Further optimized, a fixing rod 12 is vertically threaded into the center of the base 1. The fixing rod 12 has a handle 13 at its top and a threaded rod 14 at its bottom. By rotating the handle 13, the threaded rod 14 can be screwed deep into the soil, thereby enhancing the overall fixation strength. This dual-fixation method is particularly suitable for orchard environments with loose soil or strong winds, effectively preventing the equipment (i.e., the entire solar trap) from tipping over.
[0030] In use, first insert the wedge-shaped foot 11 into the soil, then rotate the handle 13 to deepen the threaded rod 14 into the soil, thus securing the entire solar-powered trap. Next, adjust the trapping light assembly 6 to a suitable height using the controller 7 (this invention uses a remote control switch matched with the controller 7 to remotely raise and lower the trapping light assembly 6), and set the trapping light 62 to working mode. During the day, the solar panel 3 converts light energy into electrical energy and stores it in the energy storage battery 5. At night, the trapping light 62 turns on, attracting and capturing pests. When periodically cleaning the trapping light assembly 6, the height can be lowered using the height adjustment component 8 for convenient manual cleaning.
[0031] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
