[0042] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model or the prior art, the present utility model will be briefly introduced below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and descriptions of the embodiments or the prior art. Obviously, the following description of the structure of the accompanying drawings is only some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort. It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is used to help understand this utility model, but does not constitute a limitation on this utility model.

[0043] Example 1

[0044] This embodiment provides a projectile, including a projectile body 0, wherein a bee-killing agent is disposed inside the projectile body 0, and a drug release structure for releasing the bee-killing agent is provided on the projectile body 0.

[0045] In this embodiment, the bee-killing agent can be a combination of natural organic acids, plant essential oils, matrine, and azadirachtin. Therefore, the projectile (0) can be fired into the beehive using an air gun, slingshot, or similar method, preventing direct contact between workers and the beehive and avoiding wasp stings. After the projectile is fired, workers can move on to the next beehive. Compared to traditional manual removal, using projectiles is more efficient. After a period of time, the wasps, upon contact with the bee-killing agent, are eliminated within the beehive. Furthermore, using projectiles for bee eradication, compared to burning or washing with water, does not damage the surrounding environment (e.g., burning down houses), offering a higher safety factor. The wasps gradually die within the beehive after inhaling the agent, and the larvae within the hive are also eliminated, resulting in greater stability.

[0046] As a further optimization of this embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the projectile body 0 includes: an outer shell 001, a drug storage sac 002 inside the outer shell 001, the bee-killing agent being stored in the drug storage sac 002, and the drug release structure including micropores 003 on the outer shell 001 and spikes 004 on the inner wall of the outer shell 001 for piercing the drug storage sac 002.

[0047] In this embodiment, before the projectile is launched, the medicine storage sac 002 is intact, and the bee-killing agent will not leak out of the medicine storage sac 002. When the projectile is launched and encounters an impact, the spike 004 will puncture the medicine storage sac 002, and the bee-killing agent will leak into the outer shell 001. Then, it will slowly seep out from the outer shell through the micropores 003 and flow into the beehive.

[0048] In this embodiment, the outer shell 001 and the drug storage sac 002 adopt a split structure, that is, the outer shell 001 is composed of two half shells connected together. Before firing, the outer shell 001 and the drug storage sac 002 are stored separately. When firing is required, the drug storage sac 002 is put into the outer shell 001. This can prevent the spikes 004 inside the outer shell 001 from puncturing the drug storage sac 002 before firing.

[0049] Example 2

[0050] Based on Example 1, this example employs another drug release method, namely passive drug release (Example 1 is active drug release); specifically, as follows... Figure 2 As shown, the projectile body 0 includes: an outer shell 001, and a pellet 005 made of wasp food and bee-killing agent inside the outer shell 001. The drug release structure includes a through hole 006 provided on the outer shell 001. In this embodiment, the pellet 005 can be made of honey, meat and bee-killing agent, and filled into the outer shell 001. Wasps eat the pellet 005 through the through hole 006 and also ingest the bee-killing agent, thereby achieving bee extermination.

[0051] Example 3

[0052] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of a bee-killing device provided in one embodiment of this utility model. Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a bee-killing device, which includes: projectiles, a flight vehicle 1, and a launcher as described in Embodiment 1. The launcher is mounted on the flight vehicle 1 and is used to launch projectiles at the beehive. The launcher contains a plurality of projectiles.

[0053] In this embodiment, the flight vehicle 1 is a quadcopter drone, such as the DJI Mavic 3 drone.

[0054] During wasp eradication operations, a flying vehicle 1 carrying a launcher containing wasp-killing projectiles flies towards the vicinity of the beehive. The launcher fires the projectiles into the beehive, eliminating the wasps. Since workers do not approach the beehive, the operation is highly safe. Furthermore, after firing the projectiles into the beehive, the flying vehicle 1 continues to the next beehive, resulting in high wasp eradication efficiency.

[0055] Therefore, the bee-killing device in this embodiment is applicable to bee-killing operations in scenarios such as high-rise buildings, electrical equipment, and complex environments. It reduces the risks of falls and bee stings faced by firefighters in traditional high-altitude bee-killing operations, achieving a safe and efficient bee-killing effect, while minimizing property damage to the public.

[0056] Example 4

[0057] Based on Example 2, such as Figure 4 As shown, the launcher in this embodiment includes: a box body 3, a projectile box 4 for storing projectiles is provided on the top of the box body 3, a launch tube 5 is provided in front of the box body 3, the projectile box 4 is connected to the launch tube 5, and a pneumatic launch assembly for pushing the projectiles in the projectile box 4 into the launch tube 5 and ejecting them from the launch tube 5 is provided inside the box body 3.

[0058] In this embodiment, a branch pipe is connected to the launch tube 5 located inside the housing 3. The inner diameter of the branch pipe is the same as that of the launch tube 5, and both are adapted to the projectile. The top of the branch pipe penetrates the top wall of the housing 3. After the projectile box 4 is installed on the housing 3, the top of the branch pipe is connected to the projectile box 4, and the projectile in the projectile box 4 slides into the branch pipe. Then, the pneumatic launch assembly pushes the projectile in the branch pipe into the launch tube 5. The pneumatic launch assembly then generates airflow to push the projectile out of the launch tube 5.

[0059] As a further optimization of this embodiment, the pneumatic launching assembly includes: an air cylinder 6, an electric push rod 13, a drive wheel 14, and a motor (the motor is a DC servo motor, which can be directly installed in the housing 3 and flexibly adjusted according to design requirements; therefore, the installation position of the motor is not shown in the accompanying drawings).

[0060] In this embodiment, a piston rod 7 is inserted inside the air cylinder 6. A one-way valve 8 is provided on the air cylinder 6. One end of the piston rod 7 extends to the outside of the air cylinder 6. A rack 9 is provided on the piston rod 7 located outside the air cylinder 6. The piston rod 7 is tubular. A return spring 10 passes through the piston rod 7. The end of the return spring 10 away from the piston rod 7 is connected to the inner wall of the box 3. One end of the air cylinder 6 is connected to an air pipe 11. A push head 12 is sleeved on the air pipe 11. One end of the push head 12 is inserted into the other end of the launching tube 5. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 13 is installed on the push head 12. A drive tooth 15 that meshes with the rack 9 is provided on the drive wheel 14. The drive wheel 14 is installed on the drive shaft of the motor.

[0061] like Figure 4 As shown, the working principle of the pneumatic launch assembly is as follows:

[0062] First, the electric push rod 13 retracts, causing the push head 12 to move to the left, so that the end of the push head 12 located inside the launch tube 5 moves to the left, and the end of the push head 12 leaves the connection between the branch pipe and the launch tube 5. The projectile in the branch pipe falls into the launch tube 5. At this time, the start motor drives the drive wheel 14 to rotate. The drive tooth 15 on the drive wheel 14 cooperates with the rack 9, causing the piston rod 7 to move to the left. At this time, the air cylinder 6 draws in air. Since the end of the air cylinder 6 is connected to the air pipe 11, which is inserted into the plug, and the plug has a through hole, the projectile can be attracted to the end of the plug during the process of the air cylinder 6 drawing in air. When the through hole of the plug is blocked by the projectile, the air intake is reduced. In order to ensure normal air intake, the one-way valve 8 provides air intake.

[0063] Then, the push rod is pushed to extend, causing the push head 12 to move to the right. After the end of the push head 12 moves to the right, the end of the push head 12 blocks the branch pipe, and the projectile in the branch pipe cannot fall into the firing tube 5. At this time, the motor continues to drive the piston rod 7 to move to the left, and the return spring 10 continues to compress.

[0064] Finally, after the drive tooth 15 on the drive wheel 14 separates from the rack 9, the piston rod 7 is pushed to the right by the elastic force of the return spring 10. At this time, since the one-way valve 8 can only draw in air and not exhaust it, the air in the air cylinder 6 is discharged into the through hole of the push head 12 through the air pipe 11. The airflow discharged from the through hole of the push head 12 then launches the projectile in the launch tube 5.

[0065] Therefore, the pneumatic launch assembly of this embodiment can complete the launch operation by controlling the motor and electric push rod 13, which has the advantages of simple structure and simple control.

[0066] Example 5

[0067] Based on Embodiment 3, the device further includes an infrared aiming device 16 and a control box 17. The infrared aiming device 16 is mounted on the end of the transmitting tube 5, and the control box 17 is mounted on the upper surface of the flight vehicle 1. The box body 3 is mounted on the upper surface of the control box 17, and the control box 17 is equipped with a main control board, which is electrically connected to the infrared aiming device 16.

[0068] In this embodiment, the main control board integrates a controller and a communication module. The motor driver and the electric actuator 13 driver in Embodiment 1 are both connected to the controller. The controller controls the operation of the motor and the electric actuator 13. The controller in this embodiment can be an STM32 series microcontroller. The motor driver and the electric actuator 13 driver can use a general-purpose DC motor drive circuit (e.g., DRV8833PWPR DC motor driver). The specific circuits of the drivers are not described in detail in this embodiment. The communication module can be a Bluetooth module. The communication module is used to establish a communication connection between the controller and the flight vehicle 1.

[0069] In this embodiment, the control box 17 can be attached to the upper surface of the flight vehicle 1, or it can be installed on the upper surface of the flight vehicle 1 by screws. The box body 3 in Embodiment 1 is then installed on the control box 17 by screws.

[0070] In this embodiment, the infrared aiming device 16 is also electrically connected to the controller. The infrared aiming device 16 can be an infrared laser generator, which generates an infrared beam to aim at the honeycomb.

[0071] As a further optimization of this embodiment, the front end of the transmitting tube 5 is provided with a mounting block 18, and the mounting block 18 is provided with two mounting holes. The front end of the transmitting tube 5 is inserted into one of the mounting holes, and the infrared aiming device 16 is inserted into the other mounting hole.

[0072] Therefore, when the infrared aiming device 16 emits an infrared beam, aiming is achieved when the infrared beam illuminates the honeycomb. In this embodiment, the camera 2 in embodiment 1 can take a picture of the honeycomb, and by determining whether there is a spot of infrared beam on the honeycomb picture, it can be determined whether the transmitter is aimed at the honeycomb.

[0073] This embodiment, by deploying an infrared sight 16, enables the launcher to be aligned with the hive, ensuring that the projectiles fired by the launcher can penetrate into the hive.

[0074] Example 6

[0075] Figure 5 This is a block diagram of a bee-killing system provided in one embodiment of this utility model. Figure 5As shown, this embodiment provides a bee eradication system, which includes: the bee eradication device in embodiments three to five and a remote control terminal. The bee eradication device is also equipped with a camera 2 for collecting images of beehives. In this embodiment, when the flight vehicle is a DJI Mavic 3 drone, the drone integrates the camera 2 and can directly complete the shooting work. The remote control terminal is communicatively connected to the bee eradication device's flight vehicle 1, camera 2 and transmitter.

[0076] In this embodiment, the remote control terminal is a remote controller, mobile phone, or PC. The remote controller can be a DJI IRC Pro remote controller, which wirelessly connects to the flight vehicle 1 and has a built-in 1080p high-brightness display. Since the flight vehicle 1 is communicatively connected to the controller in Embodiment 3, the remote terminal sends the launch command to the flight vehicle 1, which then sends the launch command to the controller, which controls the launcher to fire the projectile. Alternatively, the controller can also directly establish a communication connection with the remote control terminal via a communication module, allowing the launch command to be sent directly to the controller.

[0077] Therefore, the bee eradication system in this embodiment consists of a bee eradication device and a remote control terminal. The remote control terminal can remotely control the flying vehicle of the bee eradication device to fly towards the beehive, and then use a camera to capture video footage, which is then sent to the remote control terminal for display. Users can judge whether the flying vehicle is close to the beehive from the video footage. After it gets close, the user can then activate the launcher through the remote control terminal to fire projectiles at the beehive. This bee eradication system is simple and convenient to operate, and can perform bee eradication operations more safely and efficiently.
