Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of biological pest control technology, and in particular to a pest attraction-infection device. Background Technology

[0002] Pest control is a major challenge in agriculture and forestry. The extensive use of traditional chemical pesticides has not only led to increased pesticide resistance in pests but also caused environmental pollution and food safety issues. Pathogenic fungi, as natural pest control agents, have advantages such as being environmentally friendly, highly targeted, and less prone to resistance development, making them an important means of achieving green pest control. However, the large-scale application of pathogenic microorganisms still falls short of the demands of modern biological control applications in terms of field effectiveness and automation. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to design a pest attraction-infection device to lure pests into the device, inoculate them with fungi through a corrugated pipe, and allow them to escape, thereby enabling the spread of pathogenic fungal spores among the population and achieving pest control.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A pest attraction-infection device includes a trapping section and an infection section. The trapping section is located at the lower end of a shielding plate assembly. The trapping section includes a plurality of conical tube assemblies arranged from top to bottom, and a connecting mechanism is sequentially provided between the plurality of conical tube assemblies. The lower end of the tapered tube assembly at the bottom is provided with a connector, which connects the tube body and the tapered tube assembly at the bottom into one unit. A corrugated tube is provided through one side of the tube body, and both the tube body and the corrugated tube are corrugated. The infection section includes a tube body and a bellows, with the bottom of the tube body and the inner wall surface of the bellows covered with an agent containing pathogenic fungal spores.

[0005] Preferably, the tapered tube assembly is corrugated.

[0006] Preferably, the connecting mechanism includes a plurality of connecting frames fixed around the upper end of the tapered tube assembly, and each connecting frame is provided with a connecting tube assembly passing through it; The upper end of the connecting pipe assembly is connected to the connecting bracket located at its upper end, and the lower end of the connecting pipe assembly is connected to the connecting bracket located at its lower end.

[0007] Preferably, the connecting frame includes a frame assembly, one end of which has a through opening, and the connecting pipe assembly is disposed through the through opening. A connecting screw is fixed to one side of the lower end of the frame assembly, and the upper end of another connecting pipe assembly is threadedly sleeved onto the lower end of the connecting screw.

[0008] Preferably, a connecting rope assembly is connected to the upper end of the shield assembly.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. The shielding plate assembly at the top of the device serves to protect against rain and sun; when it rains, it can prevent rainwater from directly entering the structure below, and prevent the agent at the bottom of the pipe and the inner wall of the corrugated pipe from being diluted by rainwater. 2. The tube body and the upper multi-layer tapered tube assembly are connected by connecting frames, connecting tube assemblies, etc., to form an integrated hierarchical system, making the device structure more stable and the various parts work together. 3. A corrugated pipe is installed through one side of the pipe body and is precisely connected to the pipe body. The collection part is precisely aligned with the pleated channel, so that the channel can be smoothly connected to the main device, which facilitates the realization of subsequent functions. 4. The purpose of the pleated channel is to increase the contact area between the pesticide and the pest by utilizing its pleated shape, so that the pest can be fully infected with fungal spores before leaving the device, so as to spread the pathogenic fungal spores in the population. In summary, this application enables automatic inoculation of pathogenic fungal spores after pests enter the device, and allows adult insects to escape freely after infection with the pathogenic fungus, enabling them to return to the wild population level to spread fungal spores, thereby improving inoculation and dissemination efficiency, effectively reducing insect populations, and reducing the use of chemical pesticides.

[0011] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0012] Reference Figure 1-4A pest attraction-infection device, the topmost part of which is a shielding plate assembly 4. The diameter of the shielding plate assembly 4 is larger than the maximum diameter of the conical tube assembly 1, so as to fully play the role of shielding, so as to prevent rainwater from entering the conical tube assembly 1 when it rains; at the same time, it plays the role of shading and cooling.

[0013] The lower end of the shielding assembly 4 has an attraction section from top to bottom, specifically four conical tube assemblies 1, with connecting mechanisms sequentially arranged between them. Through the channel formed by the four conical tube assemblies 1, pests slide into the bottom of the tube body 7, facilitating contact between adult insects and the bottom of the tube body 7 and the inner wall of the corrugated pipe 8. Attractions or lures targeting specific pests can also be placed at the entrance of the conical tube assembly 1 to attract pests to enter.

[0014] In actual operation, multiple screws can be installed at equal intervals on the lower end of the shielding plate assembly 4, and a connecting pipe assembly 3 is installed through the connecting frame 2 to complete the connection between the connecting pipe assembly 3 and the screws, thus ensuring the stability of the connection between the tapered tube assembly 1 and the shielding plate assembly 4. A connecting rope assembly 5 can be provided on the upper end of the shielding plate assembly 4 to facilitate fixing or suspending the device in the appropriate position, thereby better attracting pests to enter.

[0015] The lower end of the lowest conical tube assembly 1 is equipped with a connector 6, to which a tube body 7 is connected. In actual operation, the connector 6 uses a corresponding insertion rod, the upper end of which can be tilted to facilitate insertion into the corresponding position at the lower end of the conical tube assembly 1 for connection. The lower end of the insertion rod also has a snap-fit ​​component for connection with the tube body 7. Alternatively, a threaded connection structure can be provided between the lower end of the lowest conical tube assembly 1 and the upper end of the tube body 7, allowing the tube body 7 to abut against the lowest conical tube assembly 1. A corrugated tube 8 extends through one side of the tube body 7, facilitating the adult insect to crawl out through the corrugated tube 8.

[0016] In this embodiment, participants Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The inner surfaces of multiple tapered tube assemblies 1, tube body 7, and corrugated tube 8 can all be corrugated, or only the bottom of tube body 7 and the inner surface of corrugated tube 8 can be corrugated. The corrugated structure can significantly increase the length of the inner surface, thus better extending the movement distance and dwell time of adult insects within the tapered tube assembly 1, tube body 7, and corrugated tube 8. The specific curvature, shape, spacing width, and size of the corrugated structure can be changed as needed without affecting the implementation of the embodiments of this application.

[0017] The connecting mechanism includes three connecting frames 2 fixed around the upper end of the tapered tube assembly 1, and nine connecting frames 2 located on the lower three tapered tube assemblies 1, each containing a connecting tube assembly 3. The upper and lower ends of the connecting tube assembly 3 are connected to the connecting frames 2 located at their upper and lower ends, respectively, ensuring a strong connection and making the positions of the four tapered tube assemblies 1 and the baffle assembly 4 relatively stable.

[0018] In this embodiment, the connecting frame 2 includes a frame assembly 21. One end of the frame assembly 21 has a through-hole 22, and a connecting pipe assembly 3 is disposed through the through-hole 22. A connecting screw 23 is fixed to one side of the lower end of the frame assembly 21, and the upper end of another connecting pipe assembly 3 is threaded onto the lower end of the connecting screw 23. The connecting pipe assembly 3 is passed through the through-hole 22 and extends to the lower end of the upper connecting frame 2, connecting the connecting pipe assembly 3 and the upper connecting screw 23. In actual operation, both the through-hole 22 and the connecting pipe assembly 3 adopt a convex structure to complete the connection and limit the movement.

[0019] In this embodiment, both the bottom of the tube 7 and the inner wall of the corrugated pipe 8 can be provided with fungal spore-containing agents, which can significantly increase the infection area and thus increase the probability of contact between fungal spores and adult insects, facilitating adult insect infection with pathogenic fungi. When adult insects crawl out of the corrugated pipe 8, their feet and bodies are contaminated with fungal spores, which are then horizontally spread to other individuals through migration, mating, and other processes, effectively reducing the insect population.

[0020] In summary, the device in this embodiment integrates three core functions: "trapping-infecting-transmitting toxins," forming a closed-loop biological control mechanism for pests (taking the red brown weevil as an example). 1. Quasi-trapping: The device is equipped with a specific lure for the red brown weevil, which can attract red brown weevil individuals active in the surrounding area into the device, thereby achieving efficient capture of the target pest. 2. Fungal infection: The device is pre-loaded with infection carriers (such as fungal powder coating, spore carriers, etc.) containing highly pathogenic fungi (such as Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae, etc.); after the red-brown weevil enters, it crawls through the bottom of the tube and the corrugated pipe, and fungal spores will be attached to its body and feet, ensuring that it is infected; 3. Targeted virus transmission: The device is designed with corrugated pipes as escape routes (the pipe size is adapted to the size of adult red brown weevils). Red brown weevils infected with fungi can leave the device through the corrugated pipes and return to the wild population. Red brown weevils contaminated with spores continuously spread the spores to other parts of the forest by migrating to find hosts.

[0021] Through contact, attraction, gathering, mating, egg-laying, or shared feeding among individuals, red palm weevils can directly transmit fungal spores carried on their bodies to other healthy red palm weevils, causing infection and triggering a fungal epidemic within the red palm weevil population. This eventually leads to an epidemic in the forest, achieving a control effect that shifts from "individual control" to "population suppression," effectively reducing the red palm weevil population.

[0022] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
