Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of leafhopper trapping technology, and in particular to a leafhopper monitoring and trapping device with leafhopper trapping and killing function. Background Technology
[0002] Leafhoppers are a common type of agricultural pest, belonging to the class Insecta, order Hemiptera, family Cicadidae. There are more than 20,000 known species worldwide, with more than 1,000 species distributed in my country. They are named for their ability to inhabit plant leaves and their jumping ability.
[0003] Leafhoppers like the black-tailed leafhopper directly suck sap from rice leaves, causing yellowing and curling of the leaves, and in severe cases, the entire plant withers. The electric leafhopper sucks sap from rice and corn leaves, causing yellow spots and white patches, affecting photosynthesis. The large green leafhopper lays eggs on tender shoots and petioles, causing branches to crack and wither (e.g., on fruit trees like apples, peaches, and durians). Its host plants include over 200 species of plants such as rice, wheat, vegetables, and fruit trees. The small green leafhopper sucks sap from tea tree shoots, causing buds and leaves to wither and curl, resulting in scorched or reddish leaves, severely impacting tea yield and quality (and increasing the bitterness of the processed tea). It also harms crops like cotton and beans, causing stunted growth. The short wavelength of blue light is more attractive to leafhoppers like the black-tailed leafhopper and the electric leafhopper, which primarily cause piercing-sucking damage and are relatively concealed, while the long wavelength of yellow light is more attractive to leafhoppers with a wide host range and greater activity.
[0004] Existing insect trapping devices typically use a single light source to attract leafhoppers, which cannot attract different species of leafhoppers, resulting in a narrow range of attraction and limited application. Utility Model Content

[0033] Example
[0034] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the leafhopper monitoring and trapping device with leafhopper trapping function described in this utility model includes a protective cover 1 at the top, a dual-stage light source trapping connecting cylinder in the middle, and a support cylinder base 4 at the bottom. The protective cover 1, the dual-stage light source trapping connecting cylinder, and the support cylinder base 4 are all made of PC material and adopt a lightweight design.
[0035] A solar panel 5 is installed on the protective cover 1, and a monitoring sensor module for monitoring the leafhopper trapping situation is installed inside the protective cover 1. A mounting base 20 is installed inside the protective cover 1, and a battery 21 for power supply and connected to the solar panel 5 is installed at the top of the mounting base 20. The monitoring sensor module includes a high-definition camera 22 for monitoring the leafhopper trapping situation inside the dual-light source trapping tube during the day, and an infrared camera 23 for monitoring the leafhopper trapping situation inside the dual-light source trapping tube at night.
[0036] The dual-light source trapping tube includes a hollow main light source trapping tube 2 for trapping leafhoppers and a hollow auxiliary light source trapping tube 3 for trapping leafhoppers. The top of the main light source trapping tube 2 is connected to the protective cover 1 via a magnetic structure. The bottom of the protective cover 1 is equipped with a shield 6 to prevent leafhoppers from escaping; the shield 6 is located at the top of the main light source trapping tube 2. Figure 3 As shown, the magnetic attraction structure includes an insertion post 7 housed within the protective cover 1, and an insertion hole 8 at the top of the main light source trapping tube 2 that matches the insertion post 7. A magnet 10 is placed inside the insertion hole 8, and a metal block 9 is located at the bottom of the insertion post 7. The insertion post 7 is inserted into the insertion hole 8 and magnetically connected to the metal block 9 via the magnet 10. The top of the insertion post 7 is connected to the protective cover 1 via a fixing plate 11. The insertion post 7, insertion hole 8, metal block 9, and magnet 10 are magnetically secured, facilitating disassembly and installation. The shield 6 prevents leafhoppers from escaping from the top of the main light source trapping tube 2.
[0037] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7As shown, the bottom end of the main light source trapping tube 2 is connected to the top end of the auxiliary light source trapping tube 3 via a thread. Both the main light source trapping tube 2 and the auxiliary light source trapping tube 3 are equipped with several sets of vertical light-transmitting arrays 12 for leafhoppers to enter. Each vertical light-transmitting array 12 includes several light-transmitting holes 13, with two ends of a circular hole 14 and a circular hole 15. Circular hole 14 is located on the outer surface of either the main light source trapping tube 2 or the auxiliary light source trapping tube 3, while circular hole 15 is located on the inner surface of either the main light source trapping tube 2 or the auxiliary light source trapping tube 3. The diameter of circular hole 14 is larger than the diameter of circular hole 15. An escape-prevention ridge 16, offset and inclined towards circular hole 15, is provided inside the light-transmitting hole 13. The escape-prevention ridge 16, combined with the larger diameter of circular hole 14 and circular hole 15, significantly reduces the possibility of leafhoppers escaping after entering the main light source trapping tube 2 or the auxiliary light source trapping tube 3.
[0038] The main light source trapping tube 2 contains several blue LED light strips 17, each arranged vertically along the main light source trapping tube 2. The blue LED light strips 17 are located between adjacent arrays of light-transmitting holes 13 in the main light source trapping tube 2. Food-grade non-toxic adhesive layers 18 are laid on both sides of the blue LED light strips 17, and these food-grade non-toxic adhesive layers 18 are located between adjacent arrays of light-transmitting holes 13 in the main light source trapping tube 2.
[0039] The auxiliary light source trapping tube 3 contains several yellow LED light strips 19, each arranged vertically along the main light source trapping tube 2. The yellow LED light strips 19 are located between adjacent arrays of light-transmitting holes 13 in the auxiliary light source trapping tube 3. Food-grade non-toxic adhesive layers 18 are laid on both sides of the yellow LED light strips 19, with the food-grade non-toxic adhesive layers 18 located between adjacent arrays of light-transmitting holes 13 in the auxiliary light source trapping tube 3. The blue LED light strips 17, yellow LED light strips 19, and food-grade non-toxic adhesive layers 18 are secured with Velcro for easy disassembly and replacement.
[0040] Blue LED strip 17 attracts leafhoppers such as the black-tailed leafhopper and the electric leafhopper, while yellow LED strip 19 attracts leafhoppers such as the large green leafhopper and the small green leafhopper. Both strips can be replaced or adjusted to use different light sources. Blue light is more suitable for trapping elusive species like the black-tailed leafhopper and the electric leafhopper in rice paddies, while yellow light is more effective against leafhoppers with wider host ranges, such as the large green leafhopper and the small green leafhopper in tea-growing areas. Targeted selection of light sources can improve trapping efficiency, and by considering the characteristics of leafhopper damage (such as virus transmission and host preferences), the threat of leafhoppers to crops can be more accurately controlled.
[0041] like Figure 8As shown, the support cylinder base 4 is connected to the auxiliary light source trapping cylinder 3 via threads. A bottom groove 26 for placing chemical insect attractants is provided inside the support cylinder base 4. A detachable support disc 24 is provided at the bottom end of the support cylinder base 4, and several detachable fixing cones 25 are provided at the bottom end of the support disc 24. The support disc 24 increases the contact area between the support cylinder base 4 and the ground, thereby improving stability. Combined with the fixing cones 25, the overall stability of the device is further enhanced.
[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to the technical solution of this utility model, and these modifications or equivalent substitutions cannot cause the modified technical solution to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model.
