Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of pest control devices, specifically to a thrips trapping and monitoring device. Background Technology

[0002] Thrips belong to the order Thysanoptera in the class Insecta, and are extremely small, typically only 0.5-2 mm in length. Adults are mostly black, brown, or yellow. Despite their small size, thrips cause significant damage. They use their rasping-sucking mouthparts to rip open the epidermis of plants and suck sap, leading to silvery-white spots, curling, deformities, and even wilting of leaves. Severe damage to flowers causes flower drop, reducing ornamental value, while fruit damage leaves scars, severely impacting yield and quality. Furthermore, thrips are important vectors for many plant viruses, and their indirect damage is often more severe than the losses caused by direct ingestion.

[0003] Thrips are difficult to detect in their early stages due to their individual size and camouflage, and their extremely high reproductive rate means that missing early monitoring means missing the optimal window for control and intervention. Therefore, early monitoring is crucial for thrips control. Thrips monitoring devices are intelligent agricultural equipment that utilizes thrips' attraction to specific colors (such as blue and yellow) and pheromones to trap, photograph, identify, and upload data for real-time monitoring and early warning of pest infestations.

[0004] However, traditional thrips monitoring devices do not have the function of protecting the camera. The camera is often exposed and directly points at the trap to collect images of pests. However, thrips and other pests can easily attach to the working end of the camera, and external environmental factors such as dust can also easily adhere to the camera surface, affecting the image clarity, making it impossible to collect images smoothly, and thus reducing the accuracy of identification. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a thrips trapping and monitoring device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A thrips trapping and monitoring device includes a control box, a camera body, and a trapping plate. The camera body is fixedly installed at the bottom of the control box. The device also includes a column, on the outer wall of which a trapping mechanism is provided. The bottom of the control box is provided with a camera protection mechanism. The camera protection mechanism includes an annular tube, which is fixedly installed at the bottom of the control box. A through hole is opened on the inner surface of the annular tube. A protruding cover is fixedly installed at the bottom of the annular tube. A connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the annular tube. A duct fan is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting pipe away from the annular tube. An air filter cover is detachably connected to the bottom of the duct fan.

[0007] Preferably, a support kit is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the column, and the control box is fixedly installed at the end of the support kit.

[0008] Preferably, the trapping mechanism includes a movable kit, which is movably connected to the outer wall of the column. A bolt is threaded onto the movable kit, and an arc-shaped clamp is rotatably connected to the end of the bolt. A limit rod is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the arc-shaped clamp, and the limit rod is slidably connected to the movable kit.

[0009] Preferably, an alloy frame is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the movable kit, and a rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the side of the alloy frame away from the movable kit. A stepper motor is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the alloy frame, and the output shaft of the stepper motor is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft.

[0010] Preferably, a support rod is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and a mounting plate is fixedly installed on the end of the support rod away from the rotating shaft.

[0011] Preferably, a frame is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the mounting plate, a protrusion is fixedly installed on the bottom of the inner wall of the mounting plate, and the trapping plate is movably inserted into the inner cavity of the mounting plate.

[0012] Preferably, the mounting plate is threaded with bolts on its side, and a limit block is movably sleeved on the outer wall of the bolts.

[0013] Preferably, a counterweight is fixedly installed at the bottom of the column, and the bottom of the counterweight has an installation hole.

[0014] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the technological progress achieved by this utility model compared to the prior art is as follows: Through the design of the camera protection mechanism, the combination of the duct fan and the air filter can absorb filtered air, which is then transported through the connecting pipe to the inner cavity of the annular pipe. The air is then output from the through hole to the side of the camera body, and then moves downward toward the inner cavity of the convex cover. The camera body is located above the inner cavity of the convex cover. At this time, a positive pressure area is generated in the inner cavity of the convex cover. This design can reduce the attachment rate of pests such as thrips to the camera body, and at the same time reduce the influence of factors such as dust attachment, ensuring that the camera body can stably carry out monitoring work.

[0017] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments: like Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a thrips trapping and monitoring device, including a control box 12, a camera body 13 and a trapping plate 14. The camera body 13 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the control box 12. It also includes a column 1, a trapping mechanism 3 is provided on the outer wall of the column 1, and a camera protection mechanism 2 is provided at the bottom of the control box 12. The camera protection mechanism 2 includes an annular tube 21, which is fixedly installed at the bottom of the control box 12. A through hole 22 is formed on the inner surface of the annular tube 21. A protruding cover 23 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the annular tube 21. A connecting pipe 24 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the annular tube 21. A duct fan 25 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting pipe 24 away from the annular tube 21. An air filter cover 26 is detachably connected to the bottom of the duct fan 25. Controlling the operation of the duct fan 25 allows it to absorb air filtered by the air filter cover 26. The air is then transported through the connecting pipe 24 into the inner cavity of the annular pipe 21. This air is then output from the through hole 22 to the side of the camera body 13, and then moves downwards towards the inner cavity of the protruding cover 23. The camera body 13 is positioned above the inner cavity of the protruding cover 23, creating a positive pressure area within the inner cavity of the protruding cover 23. This design reduces the attachment rate of pests such as thrips to the camera body 13, ensuring stable monitoring by the camera body 13. The camera body 13 can monitor the area at the trapping plate 14. The camera captures images of insect infestations. The main body 13 of the camera is network-connected, allowing the images to be uploaded to the internet. Users can remotely view the images via computers or other devices. The computer uses AI algorithms to identify and count insects, generating an insect infestation trend chart to achieve insect infestation monitoring. It is worth noting that the main body 13 of the camera and the computer in this solution are commercially available devices that can be purchased by those skilled in the art. No structural modifications have been made to these devices in this paper. Therefore, those skilled in the art are familiar with their working principles based on their professional knowledge and can apply them proficiently. Thus, this paper will not elaborate further on this aspect. Furthermore, this solution aims to protect the physical structure, not the circuitry and software control. The mention of the processing circuit in this paper is merely a supplementary explanation of the feasibility and authenticity of this utility model. This utility model does not require protection of the algorithm and circuitry technology. It is worth emphasizing that although this solution does not elaborate on the electronic control program, those skilled in the art can be familiar with and apply it based on their professional knowledge.

[0018] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, a support kit 11 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the column 1, and the control box 12 is fixedly installed at the end of the support kit 11. Through the design of the support kit 11, the control box 12 can be positioned on the column 1.

[0019] Furthermore, such as Figure 4As shown, the trapping mechanism 3 includes a movable kit 31, which is movably connected to the outer wall of the column 1. A bolt 313 is threaded onto the movable kit 31, and an arc-shaped locking piece 311 is rotatably connected to the end of the bolt 313. A limiting rod 312 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the arc-shaped locking piece 311, and the limiting rod 312 is slidably connected to the movable kit 31. The user can adjust the height of the trapping plate 14 to suit vegetation of different heights. During adjustment, the bolt 313 is loosened and rotated to move the arc-shaped locking piece 311 away from the outer wall of the column 1. Then, the movable kit 31 can be slidably adjusted on the outer wall of the column 1. After adjustment, the bolt 313 is tightened to make the arc-shaped locking piece 311 abut against the outer wall of the column 1, thereby locking the overall height of the trapping mechanism 3.

[0020] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, an alloy frame 32 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the movable kit 31. A rotating shaft 34 is rotatably connected to the side of the alloy frame 32 away from the movable kit 31. A stepper motor 33 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the alloy frame 32. The output shaft of the stepper motor 33 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 34. In the initial state, the trapping plate 14 is vertical and can face the vegetation to improve the effect of trapping pests. If it is necessary to take pictures of the working surface of the trapping plate 14, control the stepper motor 33 to drive the rotating shaft 34 to rotate on the alloy frame 32, and adjust the trapping plate 14 to a horizontal state for the camera body 13 to take pictures. The control box 12 also includes a battery and a remote communication module. The battery is used to power the camera body 13, the stepper motor 33, and the duct fan 25, etc. The user can use the remote communication module. The stepper motor 33 is remotely controlled. It is worth noting that the stepper motor 33, battery, and remote communication module in this solution are commercially available devices that can be purchased by those skilled in the art. The devices have not been structurally modified in this paper. Therefore, those skilled in the art are familiar with their working principles based on their professional knowledge and can apply them proficiently. Thus, this paper will not elaborate on them. At the same time, this solution aims to protect the physical structure, but does not protect the circuit and software control. The proposed processing circuit is only to supplement the feasibility and authenticity of this utility model. This utility model does not require protection of the algorithm and circuit technology. It is worth emphasizing that although the electronic control program is not described in detail in this solution, those skilled in the art can be familiar with and apply it based on their professional knowledge.

[0021] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, a support rod 35 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 34, and an installation plate 36 is fixedly installed on the end of the support rod 35 away from the rotating shaft 34. Through the design of the support rod 35, the installation plate 36 can be fixed on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 34, which facilitates the operation of changing the position of the trapping plate 14.

[0022] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, a frame 361 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the mounting plate 36, and a protrusion 362 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the inner wall of the mounting plate 36. The trapping plate 14 is movably inserted into the inner cavity of the mounting plate 36. The mounting plate 36, the frame 361, and the protrusion 362 can form an open cavity structure. The trapping plate 14 can be inserted into the inside of this cavity structure so that the trapping plate 14 can be replaced.

[0023] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the mounting plate 36 is threaded with bolts 363 on its side. A limiting block 364 is movably sleeved on the outer wall of the bolts 363. In the initial state, the bolts 363 are tightened, and the limiting block 364 is abutted between the bolts 363 and the mounting plate 36. The limiting block 364 is in a non-rotatable state. If it is necessary to fix the trapping plate 14 on the mounting plate 36, the limiting block 364 can be rotated while the bolts 363 are loosened. The limiting block 364 can be rotated to a position that overlaps with the trapping plate 14, and then the bolts 363 can be tightened to complete the positioning of the trapping plate 14. Conversely, the trapping plate 14 can be disassembled.

[0024] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, a counterweight is fixedly installed at the bottom of column 1. The bottom of the counterweight has an installation hole. The design of the counterweight and the installation hole makes it easy for users to position and install this structure.

[0025] The working principle of this thrips trapping and monitoring device will be explained in detail below.

[0026] like Figures 1-5 As shown, in use, with bolt 363 loosened, the limiting block 364 can be rotated, allowing the trapping plate 14 to be installed or removed from the mounting plate 36. The trapping plate 14 is used to trap thrips. For monitoring purposes, the stepper motor 33 is controlled to rotate the shaft 34 on the alloy frame 32, adjusting the trapping plate 14 to a horizontal position for the camera body 13 to capture images. The camera body 13 can capture images of the trapping plate 14 to collect insect images. The camera body 13 has a network connection and can upload the images to the internet for user viewing. Remote viewing via computer or other devices allows the computer to identify and count insects using AI algorithms, generating an insect infestation trend chart and enabling insect infestation monitoring. During use, the duct fan 25 is controlled to absorb air filtered by the air filter 26, which is then transported through the connecting pipe 24 to the inner cavity of the annular pipe 21. This air is then output from the through hole 22 to the side of the camera body 13, and then moves downward toward the inner cavity of the protruding cover 23. The camera body 13 is located above the inner cavity of the protruding cover 23, creating a positive pressure area in the inner cavity of the protruding cover 23 to protect the camera body 13.
