Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of dry flea collection technology, specifically, it relates to a tool for collecting dry fleas from mouse holes. Background Technology

[0002] Fleas are important medical insects. In addition to causing nuisance to humans by biting and sucking blood, they also spread a variety of infectious and parasitic diseases between animals or between animals and humans through their bites and blood-sucking. Among these, the most important and deadly infectious disease is plague.

[0003] A document with publication number (CN216931562U) discloses a novel flea detector, comprising an inner shaft body and a fleece outer cover. The inner shaft body has a manganese steel spring structure, and its head is oval. The surface of the inner shaft body is covered with the fleece outer cover. Because the inner shaft body is made of manganese steel spring, it is sturdy, durable, tough, and corrosion-resistant. It is not easily aged, flattened, deformed, or broken. Moreover, the manganese steel spring can bend 90°, so it can better penetrate into mouse burrows during use, allowing fleas to be collected deeper into the burrows, thus facilitating flea collection. In addition, the truncated tip of existing flea detectors is more easily blocked by soil, stones, and other foreign objects in mouse trails. The oval head of this flea detector makes it easier to move back and forth in mouse trails, preventing obstacles in the burrow from blocking the flea detector from penetrating further.

[0004] The aforementioned device enhances its deformation capability by making the main body flexible. However, in actual use, the influence of ambient temperature on flea activity must be considered. The device has limitations in low-temperature environments, which may affect the actual sampling results.

[0005] In view of this, this utility model is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are used to illustrate this utility model.

[0028] Please see Figure 1-5 A tool for collecting fleas from rat holes includes a detection component for collecting fleas in a low-temperature environment. The detection component includes a handle 1, a heating coil 2, a soft spring sleeve 21, and a circuit 22. The circuit 22 is fixedly connected to the inside of the handle 1. The soft spring sleeve 21 is fitted over the circuit 22 and is fixedly connected to the handle 1. The heating coil 2 is fitted over the soft spring sleeve 21 and is fixedly connected to the handle 1. The heating coil 2 is covered with a fleece sleeve.

[0029] In use, the heating coil 2 is first turned on to start working. The heating coil 2 heats the area around it. Then, the fluff sleeve is manually put on the heating coil 2 and fixed to it. The heating coil 2 is then inserted into the mouse hole to be detected. The soft spring of the soft spring sleeve 21 provides sufficient deformation capacity for the heating coil 2 and the soft spring sleeve 21, so that it can penetrate into the complex environment of the mouse hole. Then, the heating of the heating coil 2 increases the temperature around the flea, enhances the flea's activity, and thus improves the sampling capability.

[0030] The other end of the circuit 22 is provided with a measuring module 3, and the circuit 22 is fixedly connected to the measuring module 3. The other ends of the heating coil 2 and the soft spring sleeve 21 are fixedly connected to the corresponding measuring module 3. The middle of the measuring module 3 is provided with a camera module 4, and the camera module 4 is fixedly connected to the middle of the measuring module 3. The camera module 4 is electrically connected to the circuit 22. The end of the camera module 4 is provided with a supplementary light module 31, which is fixedly connected to the measuring module 3 and electrically connected to the circuit 22. The ends of the measuring module 3 and the supplementary light module 31 are both chamfered. A protective cover is fixedly connected to the measuring module 3. The protective cover contains the supplementary light module 31 and the camera module 4, and the protective cover must be bullet-shaped.

[0031] After the heating coil 2 is inserted into the mouse hole, the measuring module 3 is sent into the channel through the bullet-shaped protective cover to reduce the obstruction and friction required at the end. Then, the supplementary lighting module 31 is turned on to supplement the lighting of the environment inside the channel, and the environment inside the mouse hole channel is photographed by the camera module 4. The environment inside the mouse hole channel can be observed in time, which is convenient for the operator to select and confirm the insertion channel. The camera module 4 can also be used to make a simple judgment on the flea density inside the channel.

[0032] The bottom of the handle 1 is fixedly connected to the power compartment 11, the power compartment 11 is snapped with the cover plate 12, and the power compartment 11 is electrically connected to the line 22.

[0033] By opening the cover plate 12, the power supply is placed in the power supply compartment 11. Then, the installation is completed by snapping the cover plate 12 into the power supply compartment 11, and the power supply compartment 11 supplies power to the circuit 22 and the heating coil 2.

[0034] The handle 1 is threaded with a threaded end 14, and a detection end 13 is fixedly connected to the threaded end 14. The detection end 13 is used to detect and measure the position of the module 3.

[0035] After the heating coil 2 is inserted to a suitable extent, the threaded end 14 is loosened and the detection end 13 is removed. Then, the position of the measuring module 3 is confirmed through the detection end 13, and a mark is made on the heating coil 2 to confirm the insertion length. Then, the cross-sectional area is calculated between the insertion length of the heating coil 2 and the cross-sectional length of the measuring module 3 from the end of the heating coil 2. Then, the percentage of the number of fleas collected is calculated to roughly calculate the survival rate of fleas in the same area. However, this calculation method can only be used as an estimate and cannot be used as extremely accurate data.

[0036] It is worth noting that the detection end 13 includes the ultrasonic detector body and a PCB circuit board disposed within the ultrasonic detector body. The PCB circuit board includes an FPGA, a WIFI device, a dynamic memory, a static memory, a display driver circuit, a transmitting device, a receiving device, an LED display screen, a rechargeable battery, a charging management circuit, and a battery control circuit. The signal output end of the FPGA is connected to the signal input end of the transmitting device, and the signal input end of the FPGA is connected to the signal output end of the receiving device. The signal ends of the FPGA are also connected to the signal ends of the dynamic memory and the static memory, respectively, and the signal output end of the FPGA is also connected to the signal input end of the LED display screen. This utility model solves the problem that traditional ultrasonic detectors use RS485 wired data transmission, which causes great inconvenience during operation. The above application is equipped with a WIFI device, which can realize remote wireless operation. It has a simple structure and is easy to use. The detection end 13 has been fully disclosed in the prior art announcement document CN211786092U, which describes a miniature ultrasonic detector based on remote control, and will not be described again here.

[0037] The handle 1 is equipped with a heating switch 23, a fill light switch 32, and a camera switch 41. The heating switch 23 controls the opening and closing of the heating coil 2, the fill light switch 32 controls the opening and closing of the fill light module 31, and the camera switch 41 controls the opening and closing of the camera module 4.

[0038] Working Principle: In use, heating coil 2 is first turned on to start operation, heating the area around it. Then, a soft sleeve is manually placed over heating coil 2 and secured. Next, heating coil 2 is inserted into the mouse hole to be detected. The soft spring sleeve 21 provides sufficient deformation capacity for both heating coil 2 and the soft spring sleeve 21, allowing it to penetrate the complex environment of the mouse hole. The heating coil 2 raises the temperature around the flea, increasing its activity and improving sampling efficiency. After inserting heating coil 2 into the mouse hole, the bullet-shaped protective cover guides the measuring module 3 into the channel, reducing the obstruction and friction at the end. The supplementary lighting module 31 illuminates the environment within the channel, and the camera module 4 captures images of the environment inside the mouse hole, allowing for timely observation of the surrounding environment. This facilitates the operator's selection and confirmation of the insertion channel, and allows for a simple judgment of the flea density within the channel via the camera module 4. By opening the cover plate 12, the power supply is placed in the power compartment 11, and then the cover plate 12 and the power compartment 11 are snapped together to complete the installation. The power compartment 11 and the power supply provide power to the circuit 22 and the heating coil 2. After the heating coil 2 is inserted to a suitable extent, the threaded end 14 is loosened and the detection end 13 is removed. The position of the measuring module 3 is then confirmed through the detection end 13, and a mark is made on the heating coil 2 to confirm the insertion length. Subsequently, the cross-sectional area is calculated between the insertion length of the heating coil 2 and the cross-sectional length of the measuring module 3 from the end of the heating coil 2. The percentage of the number of fleas collected is then used to roughly calculate the survival rate of fleas in the same area. However, this calculation method can only be used as an estimate and cannot be considered as highly accurate data.
