[0002] Agricultural pest monitoring is a crucial aspect of agricultural production management. It primarily involves the systematic observation and data analysis of the types, quantities, and patterns of occurrence of crop pests, providing a reliable basis for scientific pest control, rational pesticide application, and green pest management. Pest monitoring devices, as key equipment for this work, are widely used in agricultural plant protection, forestry protection, and scientific research monitoring. Their performance directly affects the accuracy of monitoring data, collection efficiency, and the convenience of subsequent analysis.

[0003] Especially in the core process of insect trapping and collection, existing agricultural insect monitoring devices have gradually revealed a series of obvious limitations and technical problems when dealing with different types of pests with different activity patterns. Specifically, existing technologies, such as the solar-powered insect monitoring lamp disclosed in utility model patent CN204811600U, mainly consist of a rotating barrel with an open top, a fixed sleeve, a dividing vertical plate, a heating device, an insect-killing device, and a solar panel. It achieves automated operation through solar power and can monitor pest outbreaks at different time periods. It has the advantages of simple structure, low manufacturing cost, easy operation, and high degree of automation. At the same time, it uses a conductive slip ring to achieve power supply connection, avoiding the problem of wire entanglement caused by the rotation of the barrel, thus improving the stability and service life of the equipment.

[0004] However, in practical use, these insect monitoring devices present a problem in removing insects after trapping and collecting them. Operators often need to disassemble multiple parts to remove the insects from the rotating container, severely impacting work efficiency. Furthermore, the lack of insect crushing also occupies a significant amount of space. Therefore, to address these shortcomings of existing technology, we urgently need an innovative agricultural insect monitoring device to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an agricultural insect monitoring device that solves the problems in the prior art where operators often need to disassemble multiple parts to remove insects from the rotating drum, which seriously affects work efficiency, and also lacks the ability to crush insects, thus occupying a lot of space.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an agricultural insect monitoring device, including a base, and a frame fixedly connected to one side of the top of the base, and a collection cover fixedly connected to the top of the frame;

[0007] The collection cover has several conical cylinders embedded in it. Insect-attracting lamps are installed inside the collection cover. A support frame is slidably connected to the inside of the frame. Support rods are provided on both sides of the top of the support frame. Both support rods are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the frame. Several breaking rods are fixedly connected to both support rods. One end of the two support rods is meshed with each other. A drive motor is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the frame by bolts. One end of one of the two support rods is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor.

[0008] The top of the collection cover is fixedly connected to a top plate, and the top of the insect-attracting lamp is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate by bolts.

[0009] The support frame has sliders fixedly connected to both sides, and both sliders are slidably connected to the inner wall of the frame through grooves.

[0010] The frame has a door that is hinged to its outer side, and a handle is fixedly connected to the top side of the base.

[0011] One end of each of the two support rods is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the frame via a rotating shaft, and the other end of each of the two support rods passes through the side wall of the frame via a bearing sleeve. A gear is fitted onto one end of each of the two support rods, and the two gears are meshed together.

[0012] The bottom of the collection hood is connected to a conical frame, and wheels are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the base.

[0013] This utility model discloses an agricultural insect monitoring device. By designing the support frame as a sliding and detachable structure, combined with the open layout of the frame, the removal of insect samples becomes simple and quick. Operators can complete insect collection and replacement without complex disassembly and assembly operations, significantly improving the ease of use and maintenance efficiency of the equipment. This solves the problems mentioned in the background technology, such as inconvenient insect removal and the need to disassemble multiple parts. Secondly, it is equipped with two meshing transmission support rods driven by a drive motor, with crushing rods installed on them. This allows for automatic crushing of collected insects, effectively reducing the volume of insect accumulation, improving the space utilization of the support frame, extending the continuous working time within a single monitoring cycle, and avoiding the impact of excessive insect accumulation on subsequent trapping effects. This solves the defects of traditional equipment, such as lack of crushing function and large space occupation. Thirdly, the combination structure of the insect-attracting lamp and the conical tube ensures a high trapping rate and good escape prevention performance, improving the integrity and accuracy of insect data collection. In addition, the overall structure of the base, frame, and collection cover is stable, facilitating field transportation and deployment, and adapting to the long-term monitoring needs in various complex environments.

[0021] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-5 .

[0023] An agricultural pest monitoring device includes a base 1, and a frame 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the base 1, and a collection cover 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the frame 2.

[0024] The collection cover 3 is fitted with several conical cylinders 4. An insect-attracting lamp 15 is installed on the inner side of the collection cover 3. A support frame 12 is slidably connected to the inner side of the frame 2. Support rods 10 are provided on both sides of the top of the support frame 12. Both support rods 10 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the frame 2. Several breaking rods 11 are fixedly connected to both support rods 10. One end of the two support rods 10 is meshed with each other. A drive motor 17 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the frame 2 by bolts. One end of one of the two support rods 10 is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 17.

[0025] First, move the base 1 to the designated location in the farmland or forest area where insect infestation monitoring is required, ensuring the equipment is stable. Then, turn on the insect-attracting lamp 15 installed inside the collection cover 3. The insects' phototaxis attracts them, and they enter layer by layer through several conical tubes 4 embedded in the collection cover 3. The conical tubes 4 are designed to effectively prevent escape of insects that have entered, while also preventing rainwater or debris from falling inside. After passing through the conical tubes 4, the trapped insects fall into the frame 2 below the collection cover 3, and finally into the carrier frame 12, which is slidably connected inside the frame 2, for centralized collection. When the number of trapped insects reaches a preset value or the monitoring cycle ends, start the drive motor 17 fixed to one side of the outer wall of the frame 2. The output shaft of the drive motor 17 drives one of the carrier rods 10 to rotate. The supporting rod 10 drives another supporting rod 10 to rotate synchronously in the opposite direction through a meshing connection at both ends. Multiple crushing rods 11 are fixedly connected to both supporting rods 10. During the rotation, the crushing rods 11 move in an alternating manner to shear and crush the insects that fall into the supporting frame 12, reducing the volume of the insects and the space they occupy, thereby increasing the holding capacity of the supporting frame 12 and extending the continuous monitoring time. After the monitoring task is completed, simply open the side door or detachable structure of the frame 2 and pull the supporting frame 12 out of the frame 2 as a whole along the sliding direction to easily take out the crushed insect samples for subsequent classification, counting or laboratory analysis. The entire operation does not require disassembling the insect-attracting lamp 15, the collection cover 3 or other core components, which greatly simplifies the maintenance process.

[0026] Furthermore, the top of the collection cover 3 is fixedly connected to the top plate 5, and the top of the insect-attracting lamp 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate 5 by bolts. When installing or replacing the insect-attracting lamp 15, it is only necessary to loosen the bolts to complete the disassembly and replacement, without having to completely disassemble the collection cover 3 or other components, which improves maintenance efficiency. At the same time, the top plate 5 provides good support and fixation for the insect-attracting lamp 15, preventing it from shifting or being damaged by wind or vibration, thus achieving the effect of improving the installation stability of the insect-attracting lamp 15 and facilitating maintenance and replacement.

[0027] Furthermore, sliders 13 are fixedly connected to both sides of the carrier frame 12, and both sliders 13 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the frame 2 through the sliding groove 14. After the insect body is collected, the carrier frame 12 can be smoothly pulled out or pushed in along the sliding groove 14 by the sliders 13. The operation is simple and the guidance is good, which avoids the carrier frame 12 from shifting or getting stuck during the movement. This improves the convenience of insect body sample removal and the stability of structural operation, and achieves the effect of enhancing the smoothness of the sliding of the carrier frame 12 and improving the convenience of operation.

[0028] Furthermore, a door 8 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the frame 2 via a hinge, and a handle 6 is fixedly connected to the top side of the base 1. When it is necessary to remove the load-bearing frame 12 or perform equipment maintenance, the interior of the frame 2 can be quickly accessed by opening the door 8, making the operation intuitive and convenient. The handle 6 facilitates the transfer and movement of the equipment in fields or forests, improving the overall portability and flexibility of the device, and achieving the effects of facilitating maintenance operations and equipment movement, enhancing practicality and human-machine interaction.

[0029] Furthermore, one end of each of the two support rods 10 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the frame 2 via a rotating shaft, and the other end of each of the two support rods 10 passes through the side wall of the frame 2 via a bearing sleeve. A gear 16 is sleeved on one end of each of the two support rods 10, and the two gears 16 are meshed together. When the drive motor 17 drives one of the support rods 10 to rotate, the other support rod 10 is synchronously rotated in the opposite direction through the meshing transmission of the gear 16. This ensures the precise coordination between the rotation direction of the two support rods 10 and the staggered movement of the crushing rod 11, improving the crushing efficiency and shearing effect of the insect body. At the same time, the support structure of the bearing sleeve enhances the stability of the support rod 10 during operation, preventing it from swaying or wearing during high-speed rotation, thus achieving the effect of improving the operating accuracy and structural durability of the crushing mechanism.

[0030] Furthermore, the bottom of the collection cover 3 is connected to a conical frame 9, and wheels 7 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the base 1. The conical frame 9 can guide the trapped insects to fall smoothly into the carrying frame 12, preventing the insects from getting stuck or accumulating at the bottom of the collection cover 3, thus improving the insect collection efficiency. The wheels 7 greatly enhance the mobility of the equipment in the field environment, making it easy to deploy and adjust the position quickly, reducing the labor intensity of manual handling, and achieving the effect of improving the smooth flow of insects and the convenience of equipment movement.

[0031] In summary:

[0032] First, the entire device is moved to the monitoring location in farmland or forest area via the wheels 7 fixedly connected to the four corners of the base 1. The handle 6 fixedly connected to the top side of the base 1 facilitates manual pushing, ensuring flexible and efficient deployment of the equipment. After reaching the designated location, the insect-attracting lamp 15 installed inside the collection cover 3 is turned on. The insect-attracting lamp 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate 5 of the collection cover 3 by bolts, ensuring structural stability and facilitating subsequent maintenance and replacement. Utilizing the phototaxis of insects, pests are attracted and enter layer by layer from several conical tubes 4 embedded in the collection cover 3. The one-way channel design of the conical tubes 4 effectively prevents the insects that have entered from escaping, while also preventing rainwater or debris from falling into the equipment and contaminating it. The trapped pests are guided by the conical frame 9 connected to the bottom of the collection cover 3, smoothly falling into the frame 2, and finally falling into the carrier frame 12 slidably connected inside the frame 2 for centralized collection. When the number of insects reaches the preset value or the monitoring cycle ends, the drive motor 17 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the frame 2 by bolts is activated, and its output shaft... One of the support rods 10 is rotated, with one end connected to the inner wall of the frame 2 via a pivot, and the other end passing through the side wall of the frame 2 via a bearing sleeve. The operation is smooth. Simultaneously, the gear 16 on the support rod 10 meshes with the gear 16 on the other support rod 10, causing the two support rods 10 to rotate synchronously in opposite directions. Multiple crushing rods 11 fixed on them interlock and shear during rotation, crushing the insects falling into the support frame 12, reducing their volume and space occupation, thereby increasing the capacity of the support frame 12 and extending continuous monitoring time. After the monitoring task is completed, the door 8, which is rotatably connected to the outside of the frame 2 via a hinge, opens, revealing the internal structure. The sliders 13 fixed to both sides of the support frame 12 slide smoothly out along the grooves 14 on the inner wall of the frame 2, achieving complete extraction. Operators can directly remove the support frame 12 for insect sample classification, counting, or laboratory analysis. The entire process does not require disassembling core components such as the insect-attracting lamp 15 and the collection cover 3, greatly simplifying the maintenance process. The use of wheels 7 and handles 6 significantly improves the mobility and deployment convenience of the equipment in complex field environments, reducing the labor intensity of manual handling. Secondly, the insect-attracting lamp 15 is fixed by the top plate 5 and bolts, making the structure robust and easy to replace and maintain, ensuring the continuity of long-term monitoring. Thirdly, the combined structure of the conical cylinder 4 and the conical frame 9 effectively improves the guidance and smooth flow of insects, preventing blockages or jams and improving trapping efficiency. The drive motor 17 drives two bearing rods 10 that are meshed through gears 16, which, together with the crushing rod 11, achieve automatic shearing and crushing of insects. This not only reduces the volume of insect accumulation and extends the cycle of a single operation, but also avoids the problem of excessive insect accumulation affecting subsequent trapping. The bearing frame 12 achieves rapid pulling through the sliding connection between the slider 13 and the slide groove 14. Combined with the opening design of the door 8, the removal of insect samples is intuitive, simple, and efficient, solving the pain points of difficult insect removal and frequent disassembly of parts in traditional equipment.

[0033] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely one or more preferred embodiments of this application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this application. Those skilled in the art can understand that all or part of the processes for implementing the above embodiments and equivalent changes made in accordance with the claims of this application still fall within the scope of this application.
