Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pest control technology for baby bok choy cultivation, specifically a pest control device for baby bok choy cultivation. Background Technology

[0002] Baby bok choy, a common vegetable, is susceptible to phototactic pests such as aphids, diamondback moths, and beet armyworms during its cultivation. These pests not only damage plant growth by eating leaves but can also spread viral diseases, leading to reduced yields, deterioration in quality, and in severe cases, even total crop failure.

[0003] To ensure the safety of baby bok choy cultivation, existing pest control methods mainly include chemical control, physical barrier control, and physical trapping. Among these, the wind-suction insect-repelling lamp, which utilizes the phototaxis of pests combined with negative pressure adsorption to achieve pesticide-free pest control, has become the preferred solution for green baby bok choy cultivation. Existing wind-suction insect-repelling lamps typically include a stand, an insect collection container, a negative pressure fan, and an ultraviolet lamp. The ultraviolet lamp emits specific wavelengths of light to attract pests, and the negative pressure fan creates airflow that draws the pests into the collection container.

[0004] However, the UV lamps of existing wind-suction insect repellent lamps are mostly exposed to the external environment without effective isolation and protection structures. In actual use, pests attracted by the light can easily come into direct contact with the surface of the UV lamp. Some weaker pests may even adhere directly to the lamp and die. Over time, a large number of dead pests will gradually accumulate on the surface of the UV lamp. On the one hand, this will block the light emitted by the lamp, resulting in a reduced light propagation range and weakened light intensity, significantly reducing the attraction effect on distant pests. On the other hand, the decomposition of the insect corpses will produce sticky secretions, further aggravating the adhesion of subsequent pests, forming a vicious cycle and seriously affecting the continuous insect repellent efficiency of the lamp. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pest control device for growing baby bok choy, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a pest control device for baby bok choy cultivation, comprising an insect collection container, a mounting base, a negative pressure fan, and an ultraviolet lamp. The negative pressure fan is installed in a circular through-hole at the top of the insect collection container. The mounting base is positioned directly above the negative pressure fan. The ultraviolet lamp is positioned at the bottom of the mounting base and suspended directly above the negative pressure fan. During pest control, the light emitted by the ultraviolet lamp attracts pests to the surrounding area. The negative pressure fan forms a negative pressure adsorption zone around the ultraviolet lamp, adsorbing the pests into the interior of the insect collection container. Several protective strips are provided on the outer side of the ultraviolet lamp, with the bottom end of each strip fixedly connected to the axis of the negative pressure fan, allowing the protective strips to rotate with the negative pressure fan, thus isolating the pests from the ultraviolet lamp.

[0007] Preferably, the protective strip is spiral-shaped, and one or two protective strips are provided.

[0008] Preferably, a top plate is fixedly connected to the top of the protective strip, and the distance between the top plate and the ultraviolet lamp tube is 1-3mm.

[0009] Preferably, the windward side of the protective strip is provided with a groove when it rotates, and the top piece seals the top opening of the groove.

[0010] Preferably, a horizontal bar is fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective strip, the horizontal bar is fixedly connected to the vertical bar, and the vertical bar is coaxially fixedly connected to the negative pressure fan.

[0011] Preferably, a connecting rod is fixedly connected between the insect collection container and the mounting base.

[0012] Preferably, the insect collection container is fixedly mounted on a support, and a base plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support.

[0013] Preferably, a plurality of cones are fixedly provided at the bottom of the base plate. The cones are arranged vertically and their cross-sectional area gradually decreases along the direction that moves away from the base plate.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: In this invention, when the negative pressure fan starts rotating, the protective strip also rotates along with the negative pressure fan. That is, the protective strip rotates at high speed around the periphery of the ultraviolet lamp tube, thus forming a protective layer around the ultraviolet lamp tube. This effectively prevents pests from directly contacting the ultraviolet lamp tube and prevents pest corpses from adhering to the surface of the ultraviolet lamp tube, ensuring that the ultraviolet lamp tube has a long-term effective insect-attracting effect, without blocking the light emitted by the ultraviolet lamp tube.

[0017] 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.

[0018] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: A pest control device for growing baby bok choy includes a support frame 1, an insect collection container 2, a mounting base 3, a negative pressure fan 5, and an ultraviolet lamp 8. A connecting rod 4 is fixedly connected between the insect collection container 2 and the mounting base 3.

[0019] The bracket 1 is used to fix the insect collection container 2, the mounting base 3, the negative pressure fan 5 and the ultraviolet lamp 8 above the ground, so that the above structure is suspended at a predetermined height above the baby bok choy. For example, the insect collection container 2 and the ultraviolet lamp 8 are adjusted to be about 0.8-1.2m above the ground to achieve a better insect repellent effect.

[0020] Furthermore, the insect collection container 2 is fixedly installed on the support 1. The bottom of the support 1 is fixedly connected to the base plate 6. The support 1 and the base plate 6 can be made of engineering plastic or aluminum alloy to give them sufficient strength to achieve their intended function. Several cones 7 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the base plate 6. The cones 7 can be made of aluminum alloy. The cones 7 are vertically arranged and their cross-sectional area gradually decreases along the direction that moves away from the base plate 6. The cones 7 can be inserted into the soil to fix the support 1 to the ground.

[0021] The insect collecting container 2 has a circular through-hole at its top, and a negative pressure fan 5 is installed inside the circular through-hole at the top of the insect collecting container 2. The bottom of the insect collecting container 2 has a collection drawer for collecting the dead insects; when cleaning is needed, the drawer can be simply removed. The structure of the insect collecting container 2 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0022] The main function of mounting base 3 is to install ultraviolet lamp tube 8 so that it can be connected to the power supply. Mounting base 3 is located directly above negative pressure fan 5 and is fixedly installed on bracket 1 by bolts and other components. The structure of mounting base 3 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0023] The wavelength of light from the UV lamp tube 8 is usually concentrated in the range of 360nm-400nm. The visual systems of pests such as aphids and diamondback moths are significantly more sensitive to light with wavelengths of 360nm-400nm than other wavelengths. They can sense the light within a range of 10-15m and focus it towards the lamp tube, thus having a good insect repellent effect.

[0024] The ultraviolet lamp 8 is located at the bottom of the mounting base 3 and is suspended directly above the negative pressure fan 5. During insect repellent operation, the light generated by the ultraviolet lamp 8 attracts pests to the vicinity of the ultraviolet lamp 8. The negative pressure fan 5 forms a negative pressure adsorption zone around the ultraviolet lamp 8, adsorbing the pests into the interior of the insect collection container 2.

[0025] In addition, to prevent pests from directly contacting the ultraviolet lamp tube 8, several protective strips 11 are provided on the outside of the ultraviolet lamp tube 8. The bottom end of the protective strip 11 is fixedly connected to the axis of the negative pressure fan 5, so that the protective strip 11 can rotate with the negative pressure fan 5 to isolate the pests from the ultraviolet lamp tube 8. Specifically, a horizontal bar 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective strip 11. The horizontal bar 10 is fixedly connected to the vertical bar 9. The vertical bar 9 is coaxially fixedly connected to the negative pressure fan 5. In actual use, the UV lamp 8 and the negative pressure fan 5 are usually started together. Therefore, when the negative pressure fan 5 starts to rotate, the protective strip 11 will also rotate with the negative pressure fan 5. That is, the protective strip 11 rotates at high speed around the UV lamp 8. In this way, a protective layer can be formed around the UV lamp 8, which can effectively prevent pests from directly contacting the UV lamp 8, prevent pest corpses from adhering to the surface of the UV lamp 8, ensure that the UV lamp 8 has a long-term effective insect-attracting effect, and will not block the light emitted by the UV lamp 8.

[0026] In this embodiment, the protective strip 11 is spiral-shaped, with 0.15-0.25 turns. There may be one or two protective strips 11, but no more than two, because if the number of spiral protective strips 11 reaches three or more, the ultraviolet lamp tube 8 will be unable to be replaced.

[0027] A top plate 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the protective strip 11, and the distance between the top plate 12 and the ultraviolet lamp tube 8 is 1-3mm. The top plate 12 can increase the distance between the protective strip 11 and the light-emitting tube of the ultraviolet lamp tube 8 to a suitable position, preventing the protective strip 11 from damaging the light-emitting tube of the ultraviolet lamp tube 8. At the same time, the gap between the lamp holder of the ultraviolet lamp tube 8 and the top of the protective strip 11 can be filled by the top plate 12. Under high-speed rotation, pests cannot pass through the gap between the lamp holder of the ultraviolet lamp tube 8 and the top of the protective strip 11.

[0028] In this embodiment, the windward side of the protective strip 11 is provided with a groove 13 when it rotates. In this way, when the spiral protective strip 11 rotates at high speed, the air inside the groove 13 will move down and blow towards the negative pressure fan 5, which will enhance the adsorption effect on pests. The top plate 12 is sealed at the top opening of the groove 13.

[0029] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
