Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a pest trap capable of environmentally capturing and eradicating pests such as flies. Background Technology

[0003] Generally, flies, a type of insect, are considered important hygiene pests to humans for several reasons: first, they act as vectors and carriers of pathogens; second, they suck blood; third, they are the cause of myriasis; and fourth, they inflict psychological damage due to the unpleasant sensation they cause. In particular, human-friendly fly species, such as houseflies, live indoors alongside humans and transmit pathogens such as typhoid fever, cholera, amoebic dysentery, and bacterial dysentery by carrying them on their body hairs and legs. Furthermore, they directly spread pathogens due to their habit of regurgitating food ingested along with pathogens. Additionally, barn flies, which originate from livestock manure and feed on blood, cause significant damage by transmitting diseases such as myriasis to livestock, spreading bacterial diseases to crops, or infecting crops by attaching aphids to their bodies or legs.

[0004] Chemical methods have primarily been used to eliminate these barn flies. For example, pests such as flies were killed by spraying insecticides using foggers. However, these insecticides pose a problem as they become another cause of environmental pollution.

[0005] In addition, there is also a method of killing pests using high-voltage current. Since pests such as flies have phototaxis, there is a method of luring them with a light and then killing them with high-voltage current. In this case, not only is the power consumption excessive and significant costs are incurred, but the insect remains from the killing process also become a source of other problems.

[0006] [Prior Art: Published Patent Application No. 10-2010-0026129] The problem to be solved

[0007] The present invention was devised to solve such problems and is intended to provide an insect trap for capturing and exterminating insects such as flies. means of solving the problem

[0025] Embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the attached drawings so that those skilled in the art can easily implement them. However, the present invention may be embodied in various different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Furthermore, in order to clearly explain the present invention in the drawings, parts unrelated to the explanation have been omitted, and similar parts throughout the specification are denoted by similar reference numerals.

[0026] Throughout the specification, when a part is described as "including" a certain component, this means that, unless specifically stated otherwise, it does not exclude other components but may include additional components. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an insect trap according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of an insect trap according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, an insect trap according to one embodiment of the present invention may be composed mainly of a main body (10), a cover part (20), and a collection container (30). Although it generally has the shape of a rectangular container, it is not limited to this design. It may have a cylindrical or pentagonal exterior.

[0027] The main body (10) is a component equipped with a motor (not shown) that slowly rotates the cover part (20) described later and leads target insects, such as flies, to the collection container (30) through the trap hole (13) formed in the center. As illustrated, the main body (10) may include a circular plate (11), a plurality of trap holes (13) formed concentrically in the center of the circular plate (11), and a plurality of blades (15) formed in a radial straight direction from the trap holes (13) on the circular plate (11).

[0028] Although the motor in the present invention is described as rotating the cover part (20) described below, it is not limited thereto and may be configured to rotate the main body (10) instead of the cover part (20) to guide insects to the collection container (30).

[0029] The blade (15) is composed of multiple protrusions. The multiple protrusions are made of a flexible material such as silicone and can be arranged in a line with a predetermined spacing. A brush (21) formed on the cover (20) passes through this spacing. In other words, as the main body (10) or the cover (20) rotates, the attraction space formed by the brush (21) and the blade (15) gradually narrows, and accordingly, insects are attracted to the trap hole (13). Meanwhile, a groove (attraction groove (17)) for placing an attraction substance can be formed in the space defined by the disc-shaped blade (15). An insect-attracting scent is placed in this attraction groove (17). Then, more insects can sit in the attraction space and be guided to the trap hole (13). And the blade has a number of protrusions arranged in a line with a cylindrical structure, so that the phenomenon of insects getting stuck and dying between the brush (21) and the protrusions can be significantly reduced.

[0030] And a trap hole (13) can be formed concentrically in the center of the disc plate (11) for each blade (15). The trap hole (13) is connected to a collection container (30), and insects attracted by the rotation of the cover part (20) or the main body (10) are collected in the collection container (30) through the trap hole (13).

[0031] The cover portion (20) has a structure that covers a part of the circular plate (11). A brush (21) is formed on the cover portion (20), so that the brush (21) passes through the blade (15) by the rotation of the cover portion (20). As previously described, the insect attracted on the plate (11) is guided to the trap hole (13) while rotating around the central axis relative to the main body (10) by a motor.

[0032] The collection container (30) is connected to the trap hole (13). Insecticide is placed in the collection container (30), and insects that pass through the trap hole (13) and are collected die in the collection container (30). Meanwhile, a sliding door (31) is installed in the collection container (30) to conveniently remove the dead insects.

[0033] FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the cover portion (20) of an insect trap, which is an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the cover portion (20) can be broadly divided into a first portion (20-1) and a second portion (20-2). The first portion (20-1) has an overall disc shape, and a connecting groove (22) may be formed in the central portion to connect with the shaft of a motor. The second portion (20-2) is formed by connecting the first portion (20-1) and has an overall trapezoidal shape. A brush (21) is formed on the side of the second portion (20-2). As previously described, the brush (21) and the blade (15) create an attraction space, and when an insect is located within the attraction space, the attraction space narrows as the cover portion (20) rotates. And the insect is guided to the trap hole (13) formed on the concentric side accordingly, and the insect is guided to the collection container (30) accordingly.

[0034] The brush (21) can be made of an elastic material (silicone material) having the same size as the protrusion, and the gap of the brush (21) can be a gap through which the protrusion passes. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the phenomenon where an insect gets stuck between the brush (21) and the blister and dies.

[0035] FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the main body (10) of an insect trap, which is an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 4, the main body (10) is basically composed of a circular plate (11). A motor (not shown) is installed on the central axis of the circular plate (11), and the shaft of the motor is connected to the connecting groove (22) of the cover part (20) through the center point of the circular plate (11). With this configuration, the circular plate (11) is fixed and the cover part (20) is rotated. Conversely, the circular plate (11) may be configured to rotate and the cover part (20) to be fixed.

[0036] Then, a plurality of blades (15) consisting of protrusions arranged in a radial linear fashion are formed on the circular plate (11). A trap hole (13) is formed in each blade (15). As previously described, two adjacent blades (15) and the brush (21) of the cover (20) form an attraction space. Then, the brush (21) moves toward the adjacent blade (15) due to the rotation of the cover (20). At this time, the brush (21) passes through the blade (15), and accordingly, the attraction space is configured to narrow.

[0037] FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a bridge (40) of an insect trap, which is an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the bridge (40) is installed inside the collection container (30). As shown in FIG. 5, the bridge is configured such that its entire cross-sectional shape is identical to the cross-sectional shape of the collection container (30) and is installed across the middle of the collection container (30).

[0038] A stand (41) is placed in the central part of the bridge (40). The stand (41) is used to place an insect-attracting scent or an insecticide. Alternatively, these two substances may exist separately in separate spaces. The insect-attracting scent may be an insect pheromone scent, and ammonia or lactic acid. When an insect-attracting agent is placed in this way, insects are easily guided from the trap hole (13) to the collection container (30). When an insecticide is placed, insects die inside the collection container (30), making it easy to dispose of the dead insects.

[0040] The insect trap described above is not limited to the configuration and method of the embodiments described above, but can be configured by selectively combining all or part of each embodiment so that various modifications can be made to the embodiments. Explanation of the symbols
