[0019] The paper capture container according to this embodiment will be specifically described below with reference to the drawings as appropriate. Note that the following embodiment is an example of the present invention, and does not unintentionally limit the present invention, and may be implemented by appropriately supplementing other known configurations including those described in the above patent documents. In addition, for the sake of convenience, the direction passing through the central axis of the paper capture container 100 and extending in the axial direction is set as the Z direction, and the directions parallel to the peripheral wall member 10 of the paper capture container 100 that intersect with the Z direction are set as the X direction and the Y direction, respectively.

[0020] First Embodiment [Paper Capture Container Unit 300] First, a paper catch container unit 300 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. That is, as shown in Figure 4, the paper capture container unit 300 in this embodiment is composed of a paper capture container 100 capable of forming branches and window portions for capturing flying pests, and a lid member 30 that can be attached to the upper opening (opening edge portion 15) of the paper capture container 100 and in which an insecticide AI capable of attracting and killing the flying pests can be placed. Such a paper catchment container unit 300 can be installed in a variety of residential environments, such as private homes, restaurants, public buildings such as libraries, schools, factories, and offices.

[0021] Here, in this embodiment, "flying pests" refers to flying insects that can mainly cause harm to human living environments, and examples include small flies such as fruit flies, flea flies, sciaridae, fungus flies, and moth flies. In addition, as the AI ​​agent suitable for this embodiment, various known agents capable of attracting or killing the above-mentioned flying pests, such as solid, semi-solid (jelly-like or gel-like), or liquid agents, can be applied. Note that the AI ​​agent applicable to this embodiment is sufficient as long as it contains at least an attractant component, and the above-mentioned insecticidal component is not essential.

[0022] Such attractant components are not particularly limited, and examples include well-known attractant components such as Shaoxing wine, beer, wine, acetoin, black vinegar, red vinegar, vinegar, various fruit extracts, fermented vegetable or fruit products, miso, yeast, honey, liquid sugar, brown sugar, sugar, and various plant or animal foods. The above-mentioned insecticidal components are not particularly limited, and examples thereof include known carbamate compounds, oxadiazole compounds, phenylpyrazole compounds, sulfonamide compounds, nicotinoid compounds, and natural insecticidal essential oils such as orange oil.

[0023] [Paper capture container 100] Next, the detailed structure of the paper catch container 100 in this embodiment of the above-mentioned paper catch container unit 300 will be described. The paper trapping container 100 of this embodiment has the function of attracting the flying pests described above with the chemical AI and trapping them in the container. More specifically, as can be seen from Figures 1 and 2, the paper trapping container 100 is configured to include a peripheral wall member 10 and a bottom member 20A. The shape of the paper capture container 100 is not limited to that of this embodiment as long as it is a container that can realize the purpose of the present invention, but a well-known paper cup, for example, is suitable.

[0024] Therefore, the material of the paper capture container 100 is preferably a known paper material that can be used for paper cups, and the surface of the paper material may be subjected to a surface treatment to keep flying pests in the container. Examples of surface treatments that can impart such lubricating properties include a treatment to apply a known lubricant such as silicone oil such as dimethylsiloxane, a treatment to attach a known dry lubricant film, or a treatment to weld a polyethylene resin layer. As described later, it is preferable that at least a portion of the paper trapping container 100 is treated with an attractant guide to guide the flying pests to move to the insecticide AI.

[0025] 1, the peripheral wall member 10 is a portion that corresponds to the side surface of a paper cup, and includes a first breaking portion 12a such as a perforation for forming an openable and closable window portion 11, and folded-back portions 13 that are continuous with both ends of the first breaking portion 12a and serve as base points for folding back the movable side wall 14a after breaking. Thus, the window portion 11 in this embodiment is composed of the first breaking portion 12a and the folded-back portions 13 described above. As shown in FIG. 2, the window portion 11 formed in the peripheral wall member 10 also functions as an attraction port for the above-mentioned flying pests to enter and exit.

[0026] As described with reference to FIG. 2, in this embodiment, it is preferable that a plurality of movable side walls 14a are formed on the side wall 14b of the peripheral wall member 10, but this is not necessarily required, and one movable side wall 14a may be formed on the side wall 14b of the peripheral wall member 10 to form a single window portion 11. The dimensions of this movable side wall 14a are not particularly limited as long as they are not unintentionally torn, but for example, the total length of the branch (radial length from side wall 14b) is preferably about 10 to 50 mm or more, and the total width of the branch (circumferential length) is preferably 8 mm or more.

[0027] 1, it is preferable that the first breakable portion 12a of the paper capture container 100 of this embodiment is not broken and the window portion 11 is not formed when the paper capture container 100 is not used. This allows the paper capture container 100 to be transported in a stacked state when distributed to a retail store, for example, reducing transport costs, and allows any window portion 11 to be formed according to the actual usage environment of the user (purchaser) (for example, placing the paper capture container 100 in the four corners of a room, or installing the paper capture container 100 in a small space where all of the window portions 11 cannot be formed).

[0028] Therefore, the user (purchaser) can break any of the multiple first breakable portions 12a of the paper capturing container 100 with his / her fingers or the like, thereby folding down the movable side wall 14a outward from the folded portion 13 as a base point, as shown in Figure 2. The movable side wall 14a folded back in this manner constitutes a branch (perch) that attracts the flying pests. After the movable side wall 14a is detached, an opening is formed in the peripheral wall member 10, the outer edge of which is the first breaking portion 12a and the folded back portion 13. As described above, the opening defined by the first breaking portion 12a and the folded back portion 13 constitutes the window portion 11 through which the flying pests enter the container by the broken first breaking portion 12a.

[0029] The bottom member 20A corresponds to the bottom of a paper cup, and has a function of closing the lower edge opening of the peripheral wall member 10 of this embodiment. As can be seen from Figures 1 and 2, the bottom member 20A of this embodiment includes, as an example, a bottom surface 21 and an outer edge surface 22 that is the periphery of the bottom surface 21 and is connected to the lower edge of the peripheral wall member 10.

[0030] The paper capture container 100 of this embodiment is preferably used in an inverted manner so that the bottom member 20A becomes the ceiling when in use. In this case, the bottom member 20A may be formed with one or more pairs each consisting of the first breakable portion 12a and the folded-back portion 13. This makes it possible to form an opening (window portion) through which flying pests can enter and exit not only in the peripheral wall member 10 but also in the bottom member 20A.

[0031] [Cover member 30] Next, the lid member 30 that can be combined (e.g., fitted) with the upper edge opening (opening edge portion 15) of the peripheral wall member 10 of this embodiment will be described in detail with reference to Figures 3 and 4. As can be seen from these figures, the lid member 30 of this embodiment is configured to include a bottom surface portion 31, a peripheral edge portion 32, and a medicine installation portion 33. The material of the cover member 30 is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, a known paper material or a biomass plastic (biopolyethylene, etc.) that has a reduced environmental impact.

[0032] As shown in Fig. 3, the bottom surface 31 of the lid member 30 has a medicine setting section 33 that is recessed near the center (recessed relative to the inside of the container) so that the above-mentioned medicine AI can be stored. Note that, as long as the medicine AI can be placed on the bottom surface 31 of the lid member 30, the medicine setting section 33 does not necessarily have to be recessed as shown in Fig. 3, and may have a platform shape (convex section) that is raised near the center relative to the bottom surface 31.

[0033] In this embodiment, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4(a), an example has been described in which the medicine installation section 33 and the medicine AI are arranged near the center of the bottom surface section 31 of the cover member 30, but the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. 4(b), the drug placement section 33 may be omitted and the drug AI may be placed on the bottom surface section 31 of the cover member 30. In this case, the drug AI may be laid on the bottom surface section 31 as a semi-solid (gel or jelly-like) drug so that it spreads to the peripheral section 32, for example.

[0034] According to the paper catch container unit 300 in the first embodiment described above, since the window portion 11 can be formed by folding down any movable side wall 14a in the peripheral wall member 10, the shape of the branch portion (perch) can be realized according to the usage environment of the user (user, purchaser). In addition, since the paper catch container 100 can be made of paper material, it can contribute to environmental issues by reducing the amount of plastic used, which is an urgent issue worldwide.

[0035] As shown in FIG. 4, the bottom member 20A of the paper capture container 100 of this embodiment is In the above embodiment, the bottom surface 21 is parallel to a horizontal plane perpendicular to the vertical direction during use. However, the bottom surface 21 constituting the bottom surface member 20 of the present embodiment is not limited to the above-described form and may be non-horizontal. That is, as shown in Fig. 5, the bottom surface member 20B includes a dome-shaped bottom surface 24 and a peripheral connection portion 25 that connects the peripheral edge of the dome-shaped bottom surface 24 to the peripheral wall member 10.

[0036] In addition, the bottom member 20B preferably has a top opening 23 provided near the center of the dome-shaped bottom 24 for allowing flying pests to enter the container. In FIG. 5, one top opening 23 is formed in the bottom member 20B, but this is not limited to the configuration, and multiple top openings 23 may be formed in the bottom member 20B. This makes it possible to capture flying pests from the bottom side as well, greatly improving the insect trapping performance.

[0037] The dome-shaped bottom surface 24 may be provided so as to be convex from the lower edge opening of the peripheral wall member 10 toward the center of the container (for example, the center of gravity position, etc.). In other words, when the paper capture container 100 is placed with the upper end opening (opening edge portion 15) as the bottom, the dome-shaped bottom surface 24 is preferably shaped so as to be convex vertically downward as shown in FIG. Also, as shown in the same figure, it is preferable that the above-mentioned top opening 23 is located at the center of the above-mentioned dome-shaped bottom surface 24 (i.e., the bottom of the dome-shaped bottom surface 24), but the top opening 23 does not necessarily have to be located at the center of the dome-shaped bottom surface 24.

[0038] Second Embodiment Next, the paper catch container unit 300 according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 6 to 8. For the sake of convenience, the above-mentioned lid member 30 and the medicine AI are omitted from the illustration. Also, the same components as those of the paper catch container unit 300 in the first embodiment described above are given the same reference numerals and the description thereof will be omitted as appropriate.

[0039] The paper capturing container unit 300 of this embodiment is configured to include, in addition to the paper capturing container 100 as the first paper cup and the lid member 30 described in the first embodiment, an auxiliary container 200 as the second paper cup. More specifically, as shown in Figures 6 and 7, the auxiliary container 200 has a rotating frame portion 210 and a rotating wing portion 220 that can rotate around an axis (for example, around the Z axis in Figure 6) along the outer peripheral surface of the peripheral wall member 10, and an upper surface portion 230 connected to the upper ends of the rotating frame portion 210 and the rotating wing portion 220.

[0040] As a method for forming such an auxiliary container 200, for example, a known paper cup having approximately the same outer shape as the above-mentioned paper capture container 100 can be used. That is, it is considered to cut out the shape of the peripheral wall of the above-mentioned paper cup so that when the auxiliary container 200 is stacked on the paper capture container 100 with the bottoms close to each other, the rotating wing part 220 can close the window part 11. Similarly, it is considered to cut out the peripheral wall of the above-mentioned rotating frame part 210 so that when the auxiliary container 200 is stacked on the paper capture container 100, the rotating frame part 210 can be opened along the frame of the window part 11.

[0041] By stacking the auxiliary container 200 configured as described above on the paper capturing container 100, as shown in Figure 8, the auxiliary container 200 rotates around the axis of the container, making it possible to appropriately switch between a state in which (α) the rotating wing portion 220 of the auxiliary container 200 blocks the window portion 11 of the paper capturing container 100 and a state in which (β) the position of the rotating frame portion 210 of the auxiliary container 200 coincides with the window portion 11 of the paper capturing container 100, thereby opening the window portion 11.

[0042] 8 shows two states of the window 11, one completely open and one completely closed, but the present invention is not limited to these forms. That is, the opening degree of the window 11 may be adjusted arbitrarily by adjusting the rotation angle of the auxiliary container 200 about the axis relative to the paper capture container 100. This makes it possible to deal with situations such as when the aroma of the medicine AI is too strong or when it is desired to temporarily suppress the effectiveness of the medicine AI by reducing the opening degree of the window 11.

[0043] In addition, in this embodiment, the number of window parts 11, the number of rotating frame parts 210, and the number of rotating blade parts 220 are the same, but the present invention is not limited to this form. In other words, the number of sets of rotating frame parts 210 and rotating blade parts 220 in the auxiliary container 200 may not be the same as the number of window parts 11 of the paper capture container 100, and for example, one may be less than the other or may be more than the other.

[0044] The paper capture container unit 300 in the second embodiment can achieve the same effects as those in the first embodiment. Furthermore, according to this embodiment, the opening degree of the window 11 can be adjusted to any state, so that the effectiveness of the medicine AI can be temporarily suppressed, for example, when the user is absent for a long period of time. Furthermore, if the medicine AI is volatile, the amount of volatilization of the medicinal component can be suppressed to relatively extend the period of use.

[0045] The above-described embodiments are merely examples of the gist of the present invention, and may be modified as appropriate without departing from the gist of the present invention. Furthermore, known structures and methods may be appropriately added and modified as appropriate without departing from the gist of the present invention.

[0046] In the following, modified examples that can be applied to the above-described embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that in these modified examples, the same reference numerals are used for the same configurations as those in the above-described embodiments, and the description thereof will be omitted as appropriate.

[0047] <Variation 1> FIG. 9 shows a paper capture container 100 according to the first modification. First, in each of the above-mentioned embodiments, as shown in, for example, Figures 2 and 6, the movable side wall 14a folded back from the side wall 14b of the peripheral wall member 10 in the paper capture container 100 formed an approximately two-dimensional (planar) branch portion that served as a perch for flying pests. In contrast to this, the paper capturing container 100 in the first modified example has a configuration having a movable side wall 14c that constitutes a three-dimensional branch portion that is constructed by being bent in two stages.

[0048] 9, the movable side wall 14c in this modification 1 is in a state in which half of the movable side wall 14c (inclined region VA) stands at about 90° with respect to the remaining half (horizontal region HA) with the secondary bend fd as a base point in the circumferential direction (θz) of the container. Therefore, in order to accommodate this secondary bending, the peripheral wall member 10 of this modification 1 is formed with a second break portion 12b in the folded portion 13 corresponding to the inclined region VA. This makes it possible to first fold the movable side wall 14c around the folding portion 13 (at this point it has the same shape as the movable side wall 14a described above), and then fold the inclined region VA around the secondary folding portion fd relative to the horizontal region HA while breaking the second breaking portion 12b.

[0049] According to the paper capture container 100 in the above-described variant example 1, in addition to the effects of the above-described embodiment, the inclined region VA of the movable side wall 14c, which functions as a three-dimensional branch, not only has a perch effect for flying pests, but also serves as a guide passage into the container, making it possible to easily guide flying pests to the chemical AI. Incidentally, the angle of the inclined region VA with respect to the horizontal region HA is preferably approximately vertical (about 90°), but does not necessarily have to be 90°. It is sufficient that the inclined region VA is inclined with respect to the horizontal region HA with the secondary bend fd as the base point.

[0050] In addition, in the present modified example 1, half of each of the movable side walls 14c is set as the horizontal region HA and the inclined region VA, but this does not necessarily have to be equal, and the inclined region VA may be set to be smaller than the horizontal region HA. Furthermore, in the movable side wall 14c, there is one horizontal region HA and one inclined region VA, but they do not necessarily have to be the same number, and the number of inclined regions VA may be greater than the number of horizontal regions HA, for example, by making both ends of the horizontal region HA into inclined regions VA.

[0051] <<Variation 2>> FIG. 10 shows a paper capture container 100 according to the second modification. In the paper capture container 100 of this variant 2, (a) the movable side wall 14a is formed with an attraction guide (first attraction guides 16A-16C) for attracting flying pests, (b) at least the inside of the container side of the peripheral wall member 10 is provided with an attraction guide (second attraction guide 10G) for guiding flying pests that have invaded the container to move to the chemical AI, and further (c) one or more attraction guides (third attraction guide 26) for moving flying pests to the top opening 23 are formed on the outer surface of the container of the bottom member 20 (the outside of the container of the bottom surface 21).

[0052] In the paper capture container 100 in the second modification, it is not necessary to have all of the above (a) to (c), and the paper capture container 100 may have at least one of the above (a) to (c). The first induction guides 16A to 16C and the second induction guide 10G may also be provided on the outer surface side of the container of the side wall 14b of the peripheral wall member 10. In addition, although the bottom member 20B having the dome-shaped bottom surface 24 is used in the second modification, the bottom member 20A having the horizontal bottom surface 21 may also be used.

[0053] As can be seen more specifically from the same figure, an attraction guide (first attraction guides 16A-16C) for attracting flying pests is formed on the upper surface of the movable side wall 14a (the surface located on the inner surface of the container before folding) which is folded back around the fold portion 13 as a branch portion.

[0054] The first guide 16A is one or more steps that rise upward from the upper surface of the movable side wall 14a. Such steps can be formed, for example, by applying an insulating sleeve used in known beverage cups to bond a paper material having an uneven shape so that the upper surface of the movable side wall 14a has an uneven structure. The steps constituting the first guide 16A may be formed by bonding a paper material having an uneven shape to the inner surface of the container in advance as described above, or the user may bond the paper material having the uneven shape after the movable side wall 14a is folded back from the folded back portion 13 as a base point.

[0055] The first attraction guide 16B is a colored area on the upper surface of the movable side wall 14a to attract flying pests. As shown in the figure, the first attraction guide 16B may be colored in three colors, black, red, and orange, to match the color preferences of Drosophila melanogaster. The coloring is not limited to the above three colors and can be changed depending on the type of flying pest to be attracted, and can be appropriately selected based on the color preferences of known flying pests. In addition, the first induction guide 16B may be painted in the above three colors, or may have, for example, a ruled line of the above three colors drawn on the upper surface of the movable side wall 14a from the tip side of the branch portion to the folded portion 13.

[0056] The first attraction guide 16C is an area where the above-mentioned chemical AI for attracting flying pests is applied or adhered to the upper surface of the movable side wall 14a. As the chemical AI applied or adhered to such a first attraction guide 16C, a granular attractant having the above-mentioned known components can be applied. Note that, although the illustration shows an example in which a granular chemical AI is adhered, this is not limited to this embodiment, and a jelly or gel-like chemical AI may be applied as the first attraction guide 16C. In the drawing, the first induction guides 16A to 16C are provided, but it is sufficient that at least one of them is formed as the first induction guide 16 on the upper surface of the movable side wall 14a.

[0057] 10, the paper material having the above-mentioned uneven shape may be attached to the inner peripheral surface side (the inner surface side of the container) of the peripheral wall member 10. As a result, after the movable side wall 14a of the peripheral wall member 10 is folded back from the folded back portion 13 as a base point, an uneven structure is also formed on the inner peripheral surface side of the peripheral wall member 10. Such an uneven structure formed on the inner peripheral surface side of the peripheral wall member 10 functions as the above-mentioned second induction guide 10G.

[0058] As shown in the figure, one or more third attraction guides 26 are formed on the side of the bottom surface 21 that is located outside the container, for moving flying pests to the top opening 23. As such third attraction guide 26, for example, a paper material with an uneven shape similar to the above-mentioned first attraction guide 16A can be used.

[0059] In addition, in the figure, the third induction guide 26 is illustrated as a stepped portion or step portion formed radially from the top opening 23 of the bottom surface 21 as a center, but it does not necessarily have to be a stepped portion and may be a groove portion concave in the bottom surface 21. There are no particular limitations on the method of forming such a groove portion, and various known methods can be applied, and it can be realized, for example, by forming the bottom surface 21 itself from a paper material with an uneven shape.

[0060] According to the paper capture container 100 in the above-described variant example 2, in addition to the effects of the above-described embodiment, it is possible to further improve the attractiveness of the movable side wall 14a and the top opening 23 to flying pests, making it possible to easily guide flying pests to the chemical AI.

[0061] <Modification 3> FIG. 11 shows a paper capture container 100 according to the third modification. In each of the above-mentioned embodiments, as shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 6, the movable side wall 14a of the peripheral wall member 10 in the paper capture container 100 is folded back from the side wall 14b to the outside (outer peripheral surface side) of the container to form a branch portion. In contrast, the paper capture container 100 in the third modification is mainly characterized in that the movable side wall 14d of the peripheral wall member 10 can be folded back to the inside (inner peripheral surface side) of the container via the folded back portion 13.

[0062] That is, as can be seen from the figure, a user can break any of the multiple first breaking portions 12a in the paper capture container 100 with a finger or the like, thereby folding back the movable side wall 14d toward the inside of the container, starting from the folding back portion 13. At this time, as shown in Fig. 11, any of the above-mentioned first induction guides 16 may be provided on the upper surface (the surface that faces vertically upward when folded back) of at least one of the movable side walls 14d.

[0063] In the present modified example 3, some of the movable side walls 14 form movable side walls 14d folded back on the inner surface side of the container, and some others form movable side walls 14a folded back on the outer surface side of the container. However, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned form, and as described in each embodiment, all of the movable side walls 14 may be folded back on the outside of the container, or all of the movable side walls may be folded back on the inside of the container.

[0064] In this way, the movable side wall 14d is folded back to the inside of the container, so that flying pests that have entered the container are guided to the movable side wall 14d folded back to the inside of the container, and can easily reach the medicine AI. As in the present modified example 3, at least one top surface opening 23 may be provided on the bottom surface 21 of the bottom surface member 20A. According to the paper capturing container 100 in the third modified example described above, in addition to the effects of the above-mentioned embodiments, it is possible to prevent flying pests that have entered the container from escaping to the outside of the container.

[0065] <Modification 4> FIG. 12 shows a cover member 30 of a paper catch container unit according to the fourth modification. The main feature of the lid member 30 in this fourth modification is that the bottom surface portion 31 of the lid member 30 is provided with at least one lid side induction guide 34 that continues from the outer edge portion to the medicine placement portion 33.

[0066] As can be seen from the figure, the lid member 30 in this modification 4 may have a concave or convex lid-side induction guide 34 formed on the bottom surface 31 in accordance with the shape of the medicine setting section 33. In other words, when the medicine setting section 33 is provided so as to be concave with respect to the bottom surface 31, it is preferable that the lid-side induction guide 34 is also provided so as to be concave with respect to the bottom surface 31.

[0067] There is no particular limitation on the method of forming such a concave or convex lid-side induction guide 34, and for example, when the lid member 30 is formed of a resin material such as the above-mentioned biopolyethylene, the lid-side induction guide 34 may be formed in advance using an injection molding die. As described above, the lid member 30 is preferably made of paper like the paper capture container 100, but the lid member 30 is preferably made of a known biomass plastic that has a reduced environmental impact, taking into consideration ease of molding and the impact on the environment. According to the paper capture container unit 300 in the above-described variant example 4, in addition to the effects of the above-described embodiments, it is possible to encourage flying pests that have invaded the container to move to the pesticide AI placed on the lid member 30.

[0068] <Variation 5> FIG. 13 shows an example of a movable side wall 14 that can be applied to the paper capture container 100 according to the fifth modification. That is, the movable side wall 14 in each of the above-mentioned embodiments and modified examples has a shape in which a semicircle and a rectangle are combined in a plan view, one of which is the folded portion 13 and the other (only one side) is a semicircle (with rounded corners), as shown in Fig. 14(a). However, the present invention is not limited to such a shape, and the movable side wall provided on the side surface of the peripheral wall member 10 may be configured, for example, as a movable side wall 14e having a trapezoidal shape in a plan view with the folded portion 13 as a base as shown in Fig. 14(b), or as a movable side wall 14f having a rectangular shape in a plan view with the folded portion 13 as one short side as shown in Fig. 14(c).

[0069] In this case, when multiple movable side walls 14 are provided on the peripheral wall member 10, these may be movable side walls 14 of the same shape, or at least one of them may be configured to have a shape different from the other movable side walls. According to the paper capture container unit 300 in the fifth variant described above, in addition to the effects of the above-mentioned embodiments, the shape of the branches can be selected taking into consideration the characteristics of flying pests that scatter around the container.

[0070] <Variation 6> FIG. 14 shows an example of a paper catch container 100 and an auxiliary container 200 according to the sixth modification. As shown in the same figure, in the above-mentioned second embodiment, attraction openings 27A and 27B through which flying pests can pass may be formed on the bottom surface 21 and the upper surface portion 230, respectively, so that they are staggered between the bottom surface 21 and the upper surface portion 230.

[0071] At this time, in the paper capture container 100, it is preferable that the installation position of the attraction opening 27A in the circumferential direction (θz), the installation position of the window portion 11 in the circumferential direction, and the installation position of the rotating frame portion 210 in the circumferential direction coincide with each other. As a result, when the window 11 in the paper capture container 100 is opened or closed, for example, when the window 11 and the rotating frame 210 are aligned and the window 11 is opened, the openings of the bottom 21 and the top 230 are aligned, and the state is switched to an open state. On the other hand, when the window 11 and the rotating blade 220 are aligned and the window 11 is closed, the openings of the bottom 21 and the top 230 are staggered (not overlapping in the circumferential direction θz), and the bottom 21 is switched to a closed state.

[0072] Other Modifications For example, in each of the above-mentioned embodiments and variants, the paper capture container 100 was formed from a known paper material, but as long as the first breakable portion 12a, etc., can be broken by the user, it may also be formed from a relatively soft known biomass plastic, such as biopolyethylene, which has a reduced environmental impact.

[0073] In addition, the paper capture container unit including the paper capture container 100 and the cover member 30 in each embodiment and each modified example may be a disposable type intended for single use of the drug AI, or it may be a type in which the paper capture container 100 is reused. The above-described embodiments and modifications are not intended to prevent a person skilled in the art from combining them as appropriate within the scope of the spirit of the present invention. [Industrial Applicability]

[0074] The present invention can be used, for example, to manufacture a trapping container and a lid member thereof that can efficiently trap flying pests such as small flies. [Explanation of symbols]
