AI Technical Summary
Existing insect-catching technologies, such as electric trapping devices and impact-based 'fly strikes,' either use high force or are ineffective in capturing insects without sticking to surrounding materials, posing challenges for users with reduced mobility.
A catching blade with a soft adhesive-coated surface and a structural shape featuring elevations with non-adhesive points and ridges, allowing the blade to contact surfaces without sticking, while the adhesive surface captures insects.
Enables efficient and gentle capture of insects without adhering to surrounding materials, facilitating use by individuals with reduced muscle strength or mobility, and ensuring easy maintenance by preventing the blade from getting stuck.

Abstract
Description
[0001] Description
[0002] "The Catching Blade"
[0003] 1. In the case of active moving / motion capture, with the help of a capture blade, capture and dispose of unwanted insects. Without having to use force to capture and attach the insects. A soft adhesive-coated surface on the catching blade attaches the insects when they come into contact with the adhesive.
[0004] Being able to maneuver the catch blade, and attach insects without the catch blade with its soft adhesive, getting stuck in contact with surrounding material.
[0005] That users with reduced muscle strength or mobility should be able to actively catch unwanted insects with the catching blade.
[0006] The position of technology
[0007] Catching gear with a surface coating of soft adhesive that is placed in various places. The tools are taken in if necessary to be taken care of for destruction.
[0008] "Fly strikes" where impact energy mashes the insects.
[0009] Electric trapping devices, where high voltage kills the insects on contact.
[0010] Characterized by:
[0011] To be able to maneuver, confront and touch a soft adhesive-coated catch blade, against different surfaces and materials, without the catch blade sticking to the struck surface, as points and ridges which are non - adhesive on their upper parts and thus create a distance to the surface of the soft adhesive, when the catch blade comes into contact with an underlying material, at the same time as the soft adhesive coated surface is exposed, so that insects can stick.
[0012] 2. A material formed into a blade with a structural shape, where the surface structure, the profile, consists of elevations closely adjacent to each other over the entire surface of the blade, See Fig A.
[0013] The elevations are finished with on their final forms with a point form, and with a form of ridges, See Fig A- 1 & Fig A-2. On all points and ridges, the surface is coated with a glossy surface coating without soft adhesive, see Fig A-3
[0014] All other surfaces of the blade are coated with a sticky soft adhesive, see A-4. Which is not air drying. The blade can be fitted with a shaft for reach and motorized operation of the catch blade.
Claims
Patent requirementsThe material along its entire surface has a structural profile, consisting of closely spaced ridges. All of these different types of elevations ends / including on their uppermost parts, with a point shape or ridge shape. The uppermost top part of the lace forms or ridges, is coated with a non- adhesive surface. All other surfaces have a coating with a sticky soft adhesive that does not air dry.
