Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of pest control equipment, and specifically relates to a pest trapping device. Background Technology

[0002] Pests are key biological factors that restrict crop yield and quality. They cause significant economic losses and potential food security risks by feeding on leaves, stems, fruits, and roots, and by spreading plant diseases. Effective control of field pests is a core element in ensuring stable, high-yield, and high-quality agricultural production.

[0003] For a long time, chemical pesticides have been the primary means of pest control in the field due to their rapid effectiveness and convenience. However, the frequent use of pesticides has led to the rapid development of pesticide resistance in pest populations, forcing farmers to increase the dosage and frequency of pesticide application, creating a vicious cycle. Moreover, pesticide residues pollute soil and water sources, disrupt the ecological balance, threaten the survival of non-target organisms (such as bees, natural enemy insects, and aquatic organisms), and may even directly threaten the health of consumers.

[0004] Faced with the aforementioned challenges, developing environmentally friendly and sustainable integrated pest management strategies has become a global consensus and an urgent need. Among these, physical and biological control, as effective supplementary means to reduce the use of chemical pesticides, has received significant attention. Pest trapping technology is an important technology within physical / biological control systems. However, existing pest trapping equipment has certain shortcomings in use. For example, common adhesive traps quickly become saturated with sticky material or become contaminated with dust and debris during peak pest seasons, losing their stickiness and requiring frequent cleaning or replacement, resulting in a large maintenance workload. Most trapping devices consume electricity during operation, which limits their use in remote farmland. Existing trapping devices are usually open trap cages or open containers, resulting in poor trapping efficiency. Furthermore, during the rainy season, they are susceptible to rainwater damage, causing the captured pest carcasses to decompose, leading to the growth of bacteria, unpleasant odors, or affecting the normal operation of the trapping device (such as diluting the attractant or causing short circuits). Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pest trapping device that simplifies maintenance, improves trapping efficiency, prevents pests from escaping, and overcomes the technical problems of existing trapping devices, such as high replacement intensity, cumbersome replacement procedures, and limited use. The specific technical solution is as follows:

[0006] A pest trapping device, comprising:

[0007] The top cover is equipped with a solar-powered mechanism;

[0037] Example

[0038] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an insect trapping device specifically includes a top cover 100, a solar-powered drive mechanism 200, a base assembly 300, a connecting arm 400, a fixing clip 500, and a trapping component 600. The solar-powered drive mechanism 200 is mounted on the top cover 100, and the base assembly 300 is located below the top cover 100. The top cover 100 and the base assembly 300 are connected by the connecting arm 400, which has a U-shaped structure. The fixing clip 500 is mounted on the connecting arm 400. The insect trapping device is fixedly installed at a designated trapping site (e.g., clamped onto a tree branch or pole) by the fixing clip 500. (e.g., clamped and installed on a vertical pole inserted in the field by a fixing clamp 500), the capturing component 600 is installed on the output end of the solar drive mechanism 200 and is driven to rotate by the solar drive mechanism 200. Under the drive of the solar drive mechanism 200, the capturing component 600 moves in a circular motion around the base component 300. The base component 300 includes a pest collection box 310, which is connected to the capturing component 600. Pests attracted by the base component 300 are driven and guided by the capturing component 600 to the pest collection box 310 for capture and collection. The above driving principle is similar to that of a fully automatic rotating fly trap.

[0039] In some preferred embodiments, to prevent water accumulation on the top cover 100 during use, the top cover 100 is configured as a conical cover structure. At the same time, the top cover 100 can provide a shield for the components below, thereby improving the service life of the trapping device.

[0040] Preferably, the base assembly 300 further includes a mounting base 320, connecting ribs 330, and an attractant receiving cylinder 340. The mounting base 320 is cylindrical, and the attractant receiving cylinder 340 is mounted on the upper surface of the mounting base 320 at the middle position via several connecting ribs 330. For ease of assembly and disassembly, the pest collection box 310 is mounted on the lower surface of the mounting base 320 via a threaded connection, and the pest collection box 310 communicates with the inner cavity of the mounting base 320.

[0041] Furthermore, the connecting arm 400 is connected to the top of the top cover 100, and the other end is connected to the side of the mounting base 320.

[0042] In some preferred embodiments, the circumferential surface of the attractant container 340 is provided with a plurality of through holes 341, and a light source strip or a sponge strip soaked in insect trapping agent can be placed in the attractant container 340. The device can trap insects using insect trapping agent (the odor of the trapping agent is emitted into the surrounding environment through the through holes 341), or it can trap insects using the phototaxis of insects.

[0043] Preferably, the circumferential surface of the attractant housing 340 is further provided with a plurality of grid strips 342, and the grid strips 342 are spaced apart to form a trapping area. It is worth mentioning that the strips on the grid strips 342 form through gaps, and the gaps between the strips are set smaller than the size of the pests to be trapped, so that the pests cannot escape through the gaps during the trapping and driving process.

[0044] In some preferred embodiments, the solar drive mechanism 200 includes a solar panel, an energy storage box, a control box, and a drive motor 210. The solar panel is mounted on the top cover 100, the energy storage box and the control box are mounted inside the top cover 100, and the drive motor 210 is mounted below the top cover 100 via a bracket 220. The solar panel, energy storage box, control box, and drive motor 210 are electrically connected. The solar panel converts solar energy into electrical energy and stores it in the energy storage box. The energy storage box, through the output of the control box, provides a continuous power supply to the drive motor 210, thus solving the problem of electric pest trapping devices being unusable due to regional power supply limitations. The solar energy system described above is a relatively mature existing system, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0045] In some preferred embodiments, the capture assembly 600 includes a mounting plate 610, a side sealing plate 620, an arc-shaped top cover plate 630, and a comb-shaped grid plate 640. The mounting plate 610 is mounted on the output end of the drive motor 210. The side sealing plate 620 is mounted on the mounting plate 610 before the comb-shaped grid plate 640. The mounting plate 610, the side sealing plate 620, and the comb-shaped grid plate 640 form a capture chamber. The capture chamber is in communication with the mounting base 320 and the pest collection box 310. The comb-shaped grid plate 640 can pass through the grid strips 342. The arc-shaped top cover plate 630 is mounted on the lower end face of the capture chamber and covers the upper open end of the mounting base 320.

[0046] Specific principle: Driven by the drive motor 210, the capture chamber moves in a circular motion around the circumference of the attractant housing 340. During the rotation, the side sealing plate 620 gradually covers the trapping area and encircles the pests in the trapping area into the capture chamber (the enclosed space formed by the mounting plate 610, the grid strips 342, the side sealing plate 620, the comb-shaped grid plate 640, and the pest collection box 310). The comb-shaped grid plate 640 can pass through the gaps in the grid strips 342. As the space of the trapping area is gradually reduced by the moving comb-shaped grid plate 640, the pests in the trapping area are driven and guided into the pest collection box 310. Repeating the above steps, the capture chamber continuously captures the pests in the trapping area, and the pests collected by the pest collection box 310 are collectively and uniformly killed. However, when the pest collection box 310 is full, it can be disassembled and replaced with a new pest collection box 310.

[0047] In summary, this utility model provides a pest trapping device. The trapping principle of this device is similar to that of existing fully automatic rotating fly traps. Driven by a solar-powered mechanism, the trapping component moves in a circular motion around the base component. The base component includes a pest collection box, which is connected to the trapping component. Pests attracted by the base component are driven and guided into the pest collection box by the trapping component to complete the trapping process. This device has a simple structure, can improve the trapping efficiency, and can also prevent pests from escaping during the trapping process.

[0048] The foregoing description of specific exemplary embodiments of the present invention is for illustrative and explanatory purposes. These descriptions are not intended to limit the present invention to the precise forms disclosed, and it is obvious that many changes and variations can be made based on the above teachings. Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, these specific embodiments are merely explanations of the present invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
