Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of green pest control technology in agriculture, and in particular to a solar-powered insect repellent pheromone slow-release device. Background Technology

[0002] In agricultural production, pest control is a key link in ensuring crop yield. Currently, the physical pest trapping devices commonly found on the market have many key drawbacks. For example, traditional devices often use a single attractant, employing only one of the following: pheromones, lights, or sticky traps. This results in poor targeting of pests, a limited trapping range, and the inability to effectively trap both male and female pests simultaneously, leading to poor overall control results.

[0003] Secondly, pheromone release is uncontrollable and has a short shelf life. Most pheromone lures rely on the natural evaporation of the agent in the air. The release rate is greatly affected by ambient temperature and wind speed. When the temperature is low, the release is slow and the effect is poor. When the temperature is high, the release is too fast, and the lure fails in a short period of time, requiring frequent replacement, which increases maintenance costs and manpower.

[0004] In addition, energy supply is limited and deployment is inflexible. Many electronic insect repellent devices require external mains power or frequent replacement of dry batteries. Reliance on mains power limits their application in power-free scenarios. Using dry batteries is not only environmentally unfriendly, but also requires regular maintenance, making it impossible to achieve long-term unattended operation.

[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention provides a solar-powered insect repellent pheromone slow-release device. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a solar-powered insect repellent pheromone slow-release device, which solves the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a solar-powered insect repellent pheromone slow-release device, comprising a lower shell and an upper shell detachably connected to the top of the lower shell, the top of the upper shell being connected to a top cover, and the lower shell containing an LED insect-attracting light strip, a pheromone slow-release unit, and an insect-sticking board. A slot is provided at the bottom of one side of the lower housing to facilitate the insertion of the sticky insect board, which is then inserted into the bottom of the lower housing through the slot. Two LED insect-attracting light strips are provided, which are fixed to the upper and lower ends of the inner wall of the lower housing by bolts or adhesive. The pheromone slow-release unit includes a cross-shaped bracket located at the lower end of the lower shell above the sticky insect plate. A groove is opened in the middle of the upper end of the bracket, and a pheromone storage bottle is placed in the groove. An ultrasonic atomizer is installed on the pheromone storage bottle.

[0008] As a further technical solution of this utility model, multiple insect-attracting holes are evenly provided on the four sides of the lower shell. The insect-attracting holes are elongated holes with an inner diameter adapted to allow pests to enter.

[0009] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the liquid extraction end of the ultrasonic atomizer is connected to the inside of the pheromone storage bottle through a hose, and the hose of the liquid extraction end of the ultrasonic atomizer is inserted into the bottom of the pheromone storage bottle. The spray nozzle of the ultrasonic atomizer is located at the center of the bottom of the lower shell.

[0010] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the LED insect-attracting light strip integrates 365nm-420nm ultraviolet light beads or blue light beads of a specific wavelength.

[0011] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a photovoltaic panel is embedded in the upper surface of the top cover, a battery and a control module are provided inside the upper housing, and a charge and discharge controller is also provided inside the upper housing. The photovoltaic panel is electrically connected to the battery and the charge and discharge controller.

[0012] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the control module also integrates a light control sensing module and a timing module to realize automatic day and night switching and intermittent working mode.

[0013] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the top of the top cover is provided with a hook, and the upper shell and the lower shell are detachably connected by a waterproof connector or a magnetic contact.

[0014] This invention provides a solar-powered insect repellent pheromone slow-release device, which has the following advantages compared with the prior art: 1. The solar-powered insect repellent pheromone slow-release device designed in this paper uses a combination of LED light of a specific wavelength, pheromone, and sticky insect board to achieve remote insect attraction, pheromone precise guidance at close range, and physical killing by sticky insect board. This expands the effective trapping radius and takes into account both male and female pests, greatly improving the control effect of the unit equipment.

[0015] 2. The solar-powered insect repellent pheromone slow-release device designed in this paper uses an ultrasonic atomizer instead of a traditional vaporizer core to release pheromones. Through high-frequency vibration, the pheromone is atomized into ultra-fine droplets. The release rate can be controlled by PWM through the control module, and is not affected by ambient temperature and wind speed. The effective working time after a single pheromone addition is extended several times, reducing maintenance frequency and cost. At the same time, the light control sensor module realizes automatic day and night switching, and the timer module controls the atomizer to work intermittently, achieving fully automated operation. It truly achieves long-term effectiveness after one-time deployment, greatly saving manpower. Moreover, it uses solar energy as a clean energy source to achieve zero electricity cost operation. No external wires are required. It can be hung by hooks or flexibly placed in any sunny outdoor scene, making it suitable for large-scale, grid-based deployment in remote areas.

[0018] 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. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] Please see Figure 1-5This utility model provides a technical solution for a solar-powered insect repellent pheromone slow-release device: The solar-powered insect repellent pheromone slow-release device includes a lower shell 1 and an upper shell 2 detachably connected to the top of the lower shell 1. The top of the upper shell 2 is connected to a top cover 3, and the top of the top cover 3 is provided with a hook 32 for easy hanging and deployment of the device. The upper shell 2 and the lower shell 1 are detachably connected by a waterproof connector or magnetic contact. The lower shell 1 is equipped with an LED insect-attracting light strip 6, a pheromone slow-release unit and an insect sticky plate. There are two LED insect-attracting light strips 6, which are fixed to the upper and lower ends of the inner wall of the lower shell 1 by bolts or adhesive. The LED insect-attracting light strip 6 integrates 365nm-420nm ultraviolet light beads or blue light beads of a specific wavelength, which attract male and female pests from a distance by utilizing the phototaxis of pests. It has a strong phototactic attraction effect on nocturnal pests. A slot 11 is provided at the bottom of one side of the lower shell 1 for easy insertion of the sticky insect board. The sticky insect board is inserted into the bottom of the lower shell 1 through the slot 11 for inserting a removable and replaceable sticky insect board. Multiple insect-attracting holes 12 are evenly provided on the four sides of the lower shell 1. The insect-attracting holes 12 are elongated holes with an inner diameter suitable for the entry of pests. The pheromone slow-release unit includes a cross-shaped support 4 located above the sticky insect board at the lower end of the lower housing 1. A groove is provided in the middle of the upper end of the support 4, and a pheromone storage bottle 41 is placed in the groove. An ultrasonic atomizer 5 is installed on the pheromone storage bottle 41. The liquid extraction end of the ultrasonic atomizer 5 is connected to the inside of the pheromone storage bottle 41 through a hose, and the hose of the liquid extraction end of the ultrasonic atomizer 5 is inserted into the bottom of the pheromone storage bottle 41. The spray nozzle of the ultrasonic atomizer 5 is located at the center of the bottom of the lower housing 1. The pheromone in the pheromone storage bottle 41 is extracted through the hose, atomized into 1-5μm ultrafine droplets by high-frequency vibration, and released from the spray nozzle. A uniform pheromone concentration field is formed inside the device, which strongly attracts the target pests (especially males) that are approaching, guiding them to fly towards the sticky insect board. The sticky insect board is located below the pheromone atomization area. After the pests come into contact with it, they are physically captured by the high-viscosity sticky insect board.

[0020] A photovoltaic panel 31 is embedded in the upper surface of the top cover 3. The upper housing 2 houses a battery 21 and a control module 22. A charge-discharge controller is also installed inside the upper housing 2. The photovoltaic panel 31 is electrically connected to the battery 21 and the charge-discharge controller. The photovoltaic panel 31 absorbs light energy during the day and converts it into electrical energy and stores it in the battery 21 through the charge-discharge controller, thus realizing the conversion of light energy into electrical energy. The conversion of light energy into electrical energy adopts conventional light energy conversion technology in this field. The control module 22 also integrates a light control sensing module and a timing module to realize automatic day and night switching and intermittent working mode. The light control sensing module of the control module 22 senses the ambient light intensity in real time. During the day, it automatically turns off the LED insect-attracting light strip 6 and the ultrasonic atomizer 5 to ensure efficient charging of the battery 21. At night or in dim light, it automatically turns on the load to achieve intelligent energy management.

[0021] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During operation, the photovoltaic panel 31 on the upper surface of the top cover 3 absorbs light energy during the day, and the electrical energy is converted and stored in the battery 21 by the charge and discharge controller. The light control sensor module of the control module 22 senses the ambient light intensity and automatically turns off the LED insect-attracting light strip 6 and the ultrasonic atomizer 5 during the day to ensure efficient charging of the battery 21. At night or when the light is dim, the load operation is automatically turned on. In addition, LED insect-attracting light strips 6 are arranged around the inner wall of the lower shell 1, emitting 365nm-420nm ultraviolet light or specific wavelength blue light to attract male and female pests from a distance. The pests enter the device through the elongated insect-attracting hole 12 on the side of the lower shell 1. The pheromone storage bottle 41 is placed in the groove of the cross-shaped bracket 4. The ultrasonic atomizer 5 works intermittently under the timer control of the control module 22, such as working for 30 seconds each time and pausing for 6-10 minutes. The pheromone in the pheromone storage bottle 41 is extracted through the hose, atomized into 1-5 micron ultra-fine droplets by high-frequency vibration and released from the spray nozzle, forming a pheromone concentration field inside the device, which strongly attracts the target pests (especially males) that are approaching, guiding them to fly towards the sticky insect board.

[0022] In addition, the sticky insect board is inserted and installed through the slot 11 at the bottom of the lower shell 1, located below the pheromone atomization area. After the pests come into contact with it, they are physically captured by the high-viscosity sticky insect board. When the sticky insect board is full of pests, it can be directly pulled out from the slot 11 at the bottom of the lower shell 1 for replacement. When the pheromone in the pheromone storage bottle 41 is exhausted, the connection between the upper shell 2 and the lower shell 1 can be disassembled, and the pheromone storage bottle 41 on the cross-shaped bracket 4 can be taken out for replenishment or replacement. The operation is convenient and efficient.
