Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of sorghum planting protection devices, and in particular to a device for trapping and killing sorghum pests. Background Technology

[0002] The sorghum stalk fly is an insect belonging to the genus *Vibrio* of the family Muscidae in the order Diptera. Commonly known as the stalk borer, it is a common pest of sorghum. This insect is distributed in southern China and tropical to subtropical regions of Asia, Africa, and Europe. It mainly damages the heart leaves of sorghum, so it is often necessary to install insect control devices in sorghum-growing farmland.

[0003] Among them, insecticidal lamps are a common type of insecticidal device. These devices are developed based on the principle of insect phototaxis and consist of components such as solar photovoltaic panels, a high-voltage grid, frequency-vibrating insect-attracting LED lights, and an intelligent controller. This insecticidal device attracts pests by releasing a specific spectrum of white and purple LED light sources, and then kills adult insects through a 2200-3000V high-voltage grid.

[0004] However, on the one hand, insecticidal lamps can only operate in low light conditions such as nighttime lamps, and cannot kill sorghum flies around the clock, thus reducing the efficiency of killing sorghum flies.

[0005] On the other hand, in order to protect the high-voltage power grid, insecticidal lamps are equipped with rain detection functions and will automatically shut down the load when it rains. This means that the insecticidal lamps cannot kill sorghum flies in the rain, which also reduces the killing efficiency of sorghum flies. Utility Model Content

[0019] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0020] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the embodiment of this application, a trapping device for sorghum pests is disclosed, comprising: a column 1, fixedly installed on farmland; a base plate 13, installed on the column 1; a first baffle 11 and a second baffle 12, installed parallel to each other on the base plate 13; an arc-shaped plate, semi-cylindrical in shape, installed between the first baffle 11 and the second baffle 12; a box 3, located below the arc-shaped plate and connecting the two sides of the arc-shaped plate; a flipping plate 4, rotatably installed on the first baffle 11 and the second baffle 12, located between the arc-shaped plate and the box 3, and capable of sliding contact with the inner wall surface of the arc-shaped plate; a strip-shaped hole 211, opened on one side of the arc-shaped plate for sorghum flies to pass through; a ventilation hole, opened on the side of the arc-shaped plate away from the strip-shaped hole 211; an attraction component, located on the side of the ventilation hole away from the flipping plate 4, used to attract sorghum flies; a driving component 42, used to drive the flipping plate 4 to rotate; and a pest control component, used to spray insecticide into the box 3.

[0021] In practical use, the staff manually fix and bury the column 1 in the farmland where sorghum is planted. The attractant component emits an inducing odor to attract sorghum flies. Under the action of the attractant component, the sorghum flies pass through the strip hole 211 and stay on one side of the ventilation hole.

[0022] Initially, the flip plate 4 is horizontally installed. After the attracting component has been in operation for a fixed period of time, the driving component 42 is activated, which drives the flip plate 4 to rotate 90° clockwise, placing the flip plate 4 in a vertical position and quickly covering the strip hole 211 to prevent sorghum flies from flying out. This effectively traps the sorghum flies between the curved plate, the box 3, and the flip plate 4. Subsequently, the pest control component is activated, spraying insecticide into the box 3 to kill the sorghum flies inside. The driving component 42 then drives the flip plate 4 to rotate 90° clockwise again, placing the flip plate 4 back in a horizontal installation position. The dead sorghum flies fall below the flip plate 4, and this cycle is repeated continuously to carry out the insect trapping and killing operation.

[0023] In this invention, an attracting component is provided, which can attract sorghum flies around the clock and guide them through the strip hole 211 to the area below the arc plate; a flip plate 4 is provided to block the sorghum flies and prevent them from escaping; and a killing component is also provided, which can spray insecticide onto the sorghum flies to kill them.

[0024] By using this invention, sorghum fly can be trapped and killed around the clock. Compared with insecticidal lamps, this invention is not limited by the intensity of external light and can continue to kill sorghum fly even in rainy weather, thus effectively improving the killing efficiency of sorghum fly.

[0025] In some embodiments, the drive component 42 can drive the flip plate 4 to rotate 180° clockwise each time, directly blocking the sorghum fly under the flip plate 4, and then the pest control component is activated to spray insecticide into the box 3, and so on, to continuously carry out the insect trapping and killing operation.

[0026] Specifically, the arc plate includes: a first arc plate 21 and a second arc plate 22. The first arc plate 21 is in the shape of a quarter circle arc, and a number of strip holes 211 are opened at fixed intervals on the first arc plate 21. The second arc plate 22 is in the shape of a quarter cylinder and is made of stainless steel filter screen.

[0027] In this embodiment, the first arc plate 21 and the second arc plate 22 are installed together by welding. The second arc plate 22 can be formed by stacking multiple layers of stainless steel filter mesh, and the vent holes are formed by the staggered arrangement of different layers of stainless steel filter mesh.

[0028] It is worth mentioning that a frame can be added around the second arc plate 22 to help fix the stainless steel filter.

[0029] Specifically, the lure component includes: a vertical plate 51, located on the side of the second arc-shaped plate 22 away from the flip plate 4, vertically mounted on the base plate 13, with a first baffle 11 and a second baffle 12 at each end of the vertical plate 51; a cover plate 52, covering the top of the vertical plate 51 and the second arc-shaped plate 22, forming an lure chamber 53 between the second arc-shaped plate 22, the cover plate 52, the first baffle 11, the second baffle 12 and the vertical plate 51; and bait, placed inside the lure chamber 53.

[0030] Specifically, the lure-attracting component also includes: a through hole on the cover plate 52; a cylinder 54 made of stainless steel filter screen for the bait to be placed in, which can pass through the through hole into the lure-attracting chamber 53; a limiting plate 55 on the cylinder 54, the diameter of the limiting plate 55 being larger than the diameter of the through hole; an end cap 56 on the limiting plate 55 for sealing the cylinder 54; and a mounting screw 57 that can pass through the limiting plate 55 and the cover plate 52, one end of which is threaded onto the cover plate 52.

[0031] In this embodiment, fish meal and / or putrefactive animals are selected as bait. Taking advantage of the characteristic that adult sorghum fly needs to supplement protein, fermented fish meal and / or putrefactive animals are used as bait. The bait releases odors through the ventilation holes to attract adult flies and stay on the other side of the second arc plate 22.

[0032] In practical use, the prepared bait is placed in a cloth bag, then the cloth bag is placed into the cylinder 54, and finally the cylinder 54 is inserted into the lure chamber 53 through the through hole. The mounting screw 57 is then passed through the limiting plate 55 and the cover plate 52 and tightened onto the cover plate 52.

[0033] In this invention, the cylinder 54 is detachably installed on the cover plate 52, which facilitates the staff to change the bait regularly; the attraction chamber 53 is sealed to ensure that the scent of the bait is released from the vent, thereby improving the attraction efficiency for sorghum fly.

[0034] Specifically, the device also includes: a rotating shaft 41, the two ends of which are rotatably mounted on the first baffle 11 and the second baffle 12 via bearings, and a flip plate 4 is fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 41. The flip plate 4 can be fixedly mounted on both sides of the rotating shaft 41 by welding.

[0037] Preferably, the device further includes: a filter plate 7, which is horizontally installed inside the housing 3 at a fixed height from the bottom surface of the housing 3, and is located below the atomizing nozzle 62; filter holes 71 are opened on the filter plate 7 for sorghum fly to fall off.

[0038] In this embodiment, the upper side of the filter plate 7 can slide into contact with the end of the flip plate 4. The flip plate 4 rotates to block the sorghum fly on the upper side of the filter plate 7. After the pest control component completes the pest control operation, the dead sorghum fly fall through the filter hole 71 to the lower side of the filter plate 7.

[0039] Preferably, the device further includes: a photovoltaic panel 8 and a storage battery (not shown in the figure), the photovoltaic panel 8 and the storage battery being connected by wires; the photovoltaic panel 8 converts solar energy into electrical energy and stores it in the storage battery, and the storage battery is used to supply power to the drive component 42 and the disinfection component.
