[0001] This utility model relates to the field of termite technology, specifically to a bait device for termite monitoring. Background Technology

[0002] Termites are an ancient social insect, and soil-dwelling termites, in particular, are extremely destructive to water conservancy projects, being one of the main causes of dilapidated and dangerous water conservancy projects. They are characterized by their concealment, long-term nature, and widespread presence, earning them the nicknames "toothless tigers" and "time bombs." Once termite tunnels become interconnected, during flood season and rising water levels, they can easily lead to seepage, piping, and sinkholes. In more severe cases, they can cause dike collapse, rendering the dikes unable to store water and resist floods. Therefore, preventing and controlling termite damage to ensure the safe operation of dikes is a crucial aspect of dike maintenance. The harm termites cause to water conservancy facilities has a long history.

[0003] There are many ways to use termite bait, such as powdered pesticides, but the application conditions are strict, they rely on manual observation, the spread of the pesticide is unstable, and they may cause the termite colony to spread. The baiting technology has problems such as long cycle, bait is easily affected by the environment, the preparation of poisoned bait has high requirements, the setting of baiting points is difficult, and the effect is difficult to monitor.

[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] Please see Figures 1-5 As shown, a bait device for termite monitoring includes a housing 1, and further includes:

[0025] The cover plate 2 is located on the top of the housing 1. The housing 1 contains an intelligent detection module 3 with integrated chip power and communication modules. A feeding device 4 is installed on one side of the intelligent detection module 3. A pressure sensor 5 is installed inside the intelligent detection module 3.

[0026] Fixed shells 6 are fixed to the top two sides of the housing 1. The interior of the fixed shells 6 is equipped with positioning parts 7 to prevent the cover plate 2 from being lost. Multiple bait woods 8 are installed inside the housing 1. The surface of the feeding device 4 is provided with a feeding port 9. The cover plate 2 facilitates the spraying of powder into the housing 1. The intelligent detection module 3 works in conjunction with the pressure sensor 5. The intelligent detection module 3 integrates a mature 4G communication module, which supports low-power devices for cellular data connection in wide area networks. Featuring massive connectivity, wide / deep coverage, low power consumption, and high security, when termites gnaw on the cellulose bait wood 8 or the feeding device 4, it triggers a change in the support of the pressure sensor 5 inside the device, initiating an alarm within the intelligent detection module 3. After the alarm is triggered, the source code program sets the communication module group to send alarm information twice to prevent packet loss in case of a single transmission to the base station. It should be noted that after the device is registered into the project by scanning a QR code via a mobile WeChat mini-program, the intelligent detection module 3 enters daily real-time monitoring mode, the communication module is in power-saving mode, the chip status uses a heartbeat feedback mode, and transmits device data to the backend once a month, otherwise remaining in a state of low power consumption. In sleep monitoring mode, once termite intrusion is detected, the communication module will activate the power-on network mode, simultaneously sending alarm information to the backend database and WeChat mini-program. It will also report the data from the alarm monitoring point to the project manager via WeChat push notifications. After the entire monitoring and alarm function completes a closed loop, the communication module returns to sleep mode. The high-performance battery can last for more than three years. This is existing technology, clearly understood by those skilled in the art, and will not be elaborated upon here. The fixing shell 6 can limit the installation of the positioning component 7, which in turn limits the cover plate 2, preventing it from being lost due to external factors during prolonged static placement, thus affecting the bait's effectiveness.

[0027] The surface of the shell 1 has holes 10 for termites to enter. An inclined plate 11 is provided on the outside of the holes 10. The holes 10 are arranged in an array inside the shell 1. The inclined plate 11 is fixed in an array on the surface of the shell 1. A positioning cone 12 is provided at the bottom of the shell 1. The top of the positioning cone 12 is fixed to the shell 1 by screws. The holes 10 open downwards. Together with the inclined plate 11, it can prevent other organisms, grass roots and impurities in the soil from entering the shell 1 and causing blockage. It is convenient to take out the inner core for inspection, extermination and replacement during follow-up inspections. It also effectively improves the service life of the bait. At the same time, the holes 10 facilitate termites to enter the shell 1. The positioning cone 12 can help the shell 1 to be positioned in the soil and reduce the tilting of the shell 1 caused by the loose soil.

[0028] Pull rods 13 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the cover plate 2. Extension plates 14 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the cover plate 2. A first locking plate 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the extension plate 14. A second spring 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the fixed shell 6. A movable plate 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the second spring 16. The top of the movable plate 17 is in contact with the first locking plate 15. The pull rods 13 facilitate pulling the cover plate 2 to inspect the inside of the shell 1. The extension plate 14, in conjunction with the first locking plate 15, facilitates the subsequent positioning of the cover plate 2. The second spring 16, in conjunction with the movable plate 17, can assist in ejecting the first locking plate 15 from the fixed shell 6.

[0029] The positioning component 7 includes a first spring 701, which is fixed to one side inside the fixed housing 6. A second locking plate 702 is fixedly connected to one side of the first spring 701. A pull rod 703 that slides inside the fixed housing 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the second locking plate 702. A slide rod 704 that slides inside the fixed housing 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the second locking plate 702. A limiting ring 705 that restricts the use of the second locking plate 702 is fixedly connected to one end of the slide rod 704. First, when the user needs to open the cover plate 2... First, pull the lever 703. When the lever 703 moves, it will drive the second clamping plate 702 to move. As the second clamping plate 702 moves, it will compress the first spring 701. When the second clamping plate 702 moves, it will also drive the slide rod 704 to slide within the fixed shell 6, thereby improving the stability of the second clamping plate 702 when it moves. Then the second clamping plate 702 will detach from the surface of the first clamping plate 15, and the cover plate 2 can be removed. This setting can prevent the cover plate 2 from falling off the shell 1 due to external force.

[0030] Working principle: First, bait wood 8, intelligent detection module 3, pressure sensor 5, and feeding device 4 are placed inside the shell 1. The cover plate 2 is closed and the first card plate 15 is inserted into the bottom of the second card plate 702 to position the cover plate 2. Then, it is placed into the pre-dug soil. After the termite monitoring device is buried in the soil, due to the uneven ground and different degrees of sunlight, the moisture in the soil in the area of ​​strong sunlight evaporates into the air, making the humidity in the soil in that area lower than in other areas. This creates a wind in the soil that flows from the shady area to the area of ​​strong sunlight. Under these circumstances, the smell of wood that termites like to eat will spread to the surrounding area and form a concentration gradient from high to low from the device to the surrounding area. In this way, termites active within a certain range will detect the scent and gradually crawl towards the device. They will enter the casing 1 through the hole 10 to feed on the bait wood or the feeding device. The termites' feeding on the cellulose bait will cause a change in the support of the pressure sensor 5 inside the device, triggering the circuit's circuit state and thus triggering an alarm. When technicians receive the alarm information, they can arrive at the scene as quickly and accurately as possible to carry out extermination treatment. When the user needs to open the cover 2, they should first pull the lever 703. As the lever 703 moves, it will drive the second locking plate 702 to move. As the second locking plate 702 moves, it will compress the first spring 701, and the second locking plate 702 will... When moving, the slide bar 704 will slide within the fixed shell 6, thereby improving the stability of the second plate 702 during movement. Then, the second plate 702 will detach from the surface of the first plate 15, and the second spring 16 will release its limit. With the help of the movable plate 17, the first plate 15 will be popped out to facilitate the removal of the cover plate 2. Then, the powder can be sprayed on the termites. The returning worker ants will feed the poisoned bait to the king, queen, soldier ants, and worker ants and larvae in the nest through feeding behavior, which will cause the death of the entire termite colony. After the termites die, the powdered bait can be replaced and the device can be re-registered to the system so that it can continue to play the role of real-time monitoring of termite activity and reduce the use of drugs.
