Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention guides insects collected by heat into a trapping member by a rotating derivative,
The present invention relates to an apparatus that continuously processes by heat of a heat generating member.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional insect trap is an apparatus for spraying a chemical agent, collecting an insect by an adhesive tape or ultraviolet rays, and trapping it with a fixed or roll-up type mucus tape, or treating it with a high voltage. For example, as an insect attracting lamp to attract insects and drop them in a liquid pool to catch insects. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-331
There is a 03 publication. Further, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 8-154556 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-125688 disclose methods for collecting by an insect trap lamp and processing by electric shock.

[0003]

These conventional insect trapping devices described above have the following drawbacks. The spraying of the drug is not preferable because it always damages the living environment, and there is a problem that it cannot be completely harmless to plants and animals. Since it does not use heat to collect insects, it has little effect on the flies, which account for 70% of harmful flies that prefer warmth. In the case of using a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape to treat flies, only insects that happen to stay on the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape can be captured, but its efficiency is very poor, and the adhesive force is reduced by dust or the like, making capture impossible. Moreover, since the adhesive strength gradually decreases, it is necessary to replace it with time and labor. When a large amount of insects are generated, the adhesive method has a limit in the area of the adhesive tape, so that there is a limit in the number that can be captured and the treatment is limited. In addition, the method of collecting in the liquid reservoir also requires time and effort to take it out of the liquid reservoir and dispose of it, and it is also difficult to mount it on a wall because it is heavy. A device that treats insects with high voltage may scatter treated insects, and is restricted in places to be used in food processing plants and the like. Moreover, since it is a high voltage, it must be handled with care. The present invention has been made to eliminate these drawbacks of the conventional collecting devices.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 show a continuous insect trapping device 1 which is an embodiment of the present invention.
The continuous insect trapping device 1 includes a dielectric member 12, an insect trapping member 13, a heat generating member 14, a driving member such as an electric motor 3, and the like.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the electric motor 3 is attached to the side plates 2 attached to both ends of the connecting shaft 70, and the drive shaft 401 for driving the feed roller extends from the electric motor 3. On the drive shaft 401, the inner surface of a cylindrical dielectric 12 for collecting insects is placed, and the guide roller 5 and the pinch roller 9 make contact with each other to hold the dielectric 12 rotatably.

The pinch roller 9 is provided on the inner surface of the dielectric 12,
A force is applied by the spring 6 about the shaft 7 to make contact with the shaft 7, and the dielectric 12 is held. Also, the pinch roller 9
Is fixed to a movable plate 8 rotatably attached by a shaft 7, and the other end is pulled by a spring 6 attached to the side plate 2 and pressed against the inner surface of the guide plate 12. The pinch roller 9 and the guide roller 5 are attached to each side plate 2. Such a method of rotational support does not require strict circular precision of the dielectric 12,
Further, there is an advantage that the centering accuracy in supporting the shaft is not required.

The dielectric 12 can be formed in a cylindrical shape, and a plurality of partition plates 11 are mounted with a proper gap in the radial direction. The opening space 110 is the partition plate 11
Since there is nothing to cover, insects such as flies invade. As the inductor 12 rotates, the insect 12 and the partition plate 11 together with the insect trapping member 13 form a closed space 111, and the insect trapping member 13 is provided as a closing member for closing the opening space 110. It is natural that the electric motor 3, the support member, the auxiliary plate 10, the casing, etc. on both ends of the dielectric 12 cover the side surface of the dielectric 12 to form the closed space 111. The insects gradually become a net-like insect net 13 which is an insect trap member 13.
The insect trapping net 130 is provided at an appropriate position around the derivative 12 so that it cannot be escaped because it is surrounded by 0s. The insect trapping net 130 has a net-like shape, and the insect trapping condition and the treatment condition can be visually recognized, and the insect trapping net 130 does not feel a change in external atmospheric pressure as compared with the blind plate, which is advantageous in trapping insects.

The heat generating member 14 is provided in a plate shape so as to cover the partition plate 11 and forms a part of the closed space 111, and closes the opening space 110. Regarding the temperature setting, the heater 20 incorporated in the heat generating member 14 is controlled by the thermostat 2l to maintain an appropriate temperature. As the material of the derivative 12, a non-heat-conducting material or a heat-conducting plastic, steel, aluminum or the like can be applied.

On the surface portion of the derivative 12 on the side of the opening space, a attractant is attached to the outside of the colored light source, or a favorite of insects is attached or applied to collect insects.

When the power is turned on, the motor starts and rotates at a speed at which insects do not escape. Derivative 12
Starts to move by the rotation of the drive shaft 401 that rotates the feed roller that is directly connected to the electric motor 3.

As shown in FIG. 11, an electric circuit diagram is shown as an example. In the circuit. The heater 20, the thermal fuse 22, the colored light source 15, the electric motor 3 in the heat generating member 14,
A thermostat 21 for adjusting the temperature is provided.

By the attracting means, the insects are successively opened in the open space 1
Collected to 10. Due to the rotation of the dielectric 12, the dielectric 12 is moved away from the opening space 110 and heads to a location where the insect trapping net 130 is present. When the insect trapping net 130 covers the opening space 110, insects such as flies cannot escape, and the insect trapping net 130 moves to the heat-generating member 14 at a temperature at which the insects die, which is the heat treatment section.
When it reaches the heat-generating member, the heat kills insects such as flies.

As an attracting means, a heat source preferred by insects may be provided on the side of the opening 110 and collected. Therefore, if the member of the derivative 12 can be formed of a material having a heat transfer property and can be formed at a temperature preferred by insects, it will be a win. Further, it is of course possible to separately provide a heat source on the side of the opening space 110 to collect the heat.

The insects guided to the insect trapping net 130 are thus conveyed to the heat-generating member 14 and continuously treated, and become the open space 110 again at a place where the heat-generating member 14 is not installed. There, the carcass of the reptile falls and is stored in the storage box l7. The treated worms are automatically stored by being dropped due to gravity into the storage box 17 having a sufficient opening space 110, and are not scattered to the outside. A bag may be used instead of the box, and the bag may be discarded after being stored.

In this embodiment, the device 1 itself is attached to the U-shaped installation portion 25 up and down, is portable, and can be placed at a suitable place such as a desk or a shelf. It can also be mounted on a wall or hung from the ceiling.

FIG. 3 shows another embodiment. In the above embodiment, the heat generating member 14 is the closed space 1
In this case, the heat-generating member 14 rotates like a seesaw having a hinge, although it has a plate shape that forms a part of 11. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 5, the heat generating member 14 rotates about the fulcrum 140. Normally, the heating element 141, which is a heating member, is lowered by the weight 142 in the downward direction in FIG. As the partition plate 11 advances, the weight 142
As shown in FIG. 5, the head 145 provided with the heating element 141 stands up so as to form the closed space 111 against the heat. A spring may be used instead of the weight 142. As the partition plate 11 advances by rotation, the partition plate 11 advances toward the heat generating member 14 so as to abut. Then, since the partition plate 11 approaches the heat generating member 14, the insects are heat-treated by being sandwiched between the partition plate 11 and the heat generating member 14. Further, when the partition plate 11 advances, the partition plate 11 eventually pushes the head 145 of the heat generating member 14 to push the heat generating member 1.
Rotate 4 to continue spinning. In this case, even if the heat generating member 14 is not provided in a wide range, the insects are heat-treated in the closed space, so that the heat capacity is small and reliable.

The Peltier element 148 may be used as the heat source as the attracting means. This principle is
As a worm, house flies have the property of seeking a cold place when it becomes hot like summer, so it is effective to cool them when the temperature rises and to collect them at a suitable temperature for house flies. Is.

As shown in FIG. 3 or 4, a Peltier element 148 is provided. When cooling in summer, the inner side serves as a cooling surface, and blower 24 sends cool air to the inside of the inductor 12. Then, the derivative 12 is cooled from the inner surface, so that the temperature is lowered. A cooling blower 240 is normally provided outside the Peltier element 148.

Further, the temperature sensor 23 may measure the temperature of the inside and the external sensor 23 may measure the temperature of the outside air, and the temperature can be adjusted so that the temperature is always suitable for trapping insects. In addition, an ultraviolet ray 151, a germicidal lamp 152, etc. may be installed. As a result, it is convenient to have cold summers and warm winters, especially suitable for collecting house flies.
Of course, it can be applied not only to house flies but also to temperature settings suitable for other insects.

Further, as shown in the second embodiment, FIG.
Besides, the driving method shown in FIG. 5 is also conceivable. Here, the feed roller 4 presses against the inner surface of the dielectric 12 by the electric motor 3 and frictionally drives it, and the feed roller 4 presses the inner surface of the dielectric 12 from the shaft 7 by an arm (not shown). (Not shown). It can be seen here that the guide 12 is supported by three guide rollers 5. Thus, the derivative 12
Therefore, the precision of the circle and the accuracy of centering are not required as compared with the case where the dielectric 12 is supported and driven at the center.

FIG. 6 shows an embodiment in which the continuous insect trapping device 1 is of a vertical type, in which the inductor 12 is in the form of a belt, and the guide belt 120 circulates between the feed roller and the roller weight 51. Has become. Several heat-generating light sources 150 for attracting insects are arranged. An air blower 24 for sending warm air is provided below as needed.

As shown in FIG. 6, the insect trap net 130 is appropriately provided above. The electric motor 3 is built in the feed roller 4 and drives the guide belt 120. In order to form the closed space 111 from the feed roller 4 toward the traveling direction toward the back side which is the back surface, the cover plate 1
31 is provided. Of course, the whole may be formed by the insect trapping net 130. The insects that have advanced through the closed space 111 eventually arrive at the hot plate, which is the heat generating member 14, and are treated.

The treated insects are discharged downward and taken out from the installation section 25 to the outside. Therefore, the installation section 25
Preferably has a sloped sloped portion 250.

The reason why the roller weight 51 is used for the guide belt 120 is to give tension to the guide belt 120. Therefore, a vertically long groove 510 is dug below the axis of the roller weight 51, and the roller weight 51 is Gravity lowers downwards to give tension. However, it may be a normal roller.

As shown in FIG. 7, various driving methods in the present invention are considered. Here, a guide 12 is rotatably mounted on the two feed rollers 4, 4. Driven by the feed rollers 4 and 4, the pulley 4
03 and 403 are provided, and the belt 402 hangs between the belt 402 and the upper pulley 403. Upper pulley 4
03 is driven by the electric motor 3, and the lower feed rollers 4, 4
Will be rotated to rotate the derivative 12. In this embodiment, this drive system is on both sides of the inductor 12, but only one may be used.

The drive system is also shown in FIGS. What is shown in FIG. 8 is one in which the inductor 12 is directly rotated about its axis. Further, it goes without saying that this method can be applied to the feed roller 4 of each of the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1 to 7. A shaft 144 passing through the axis of the derivative 12
Further, the U-shaped engaging body 143 is hooked and driven. Support for derivative 12. It is placed on the lower guide rollers 5, 5 similar to that shown in FIG. Even in this case, it is not enough to drive the shaft without accurately setting the shaft center.

In FIG. 9 also, the inductor 12 itself is rotated directly by the electric motor 3. Electric motor 3
Is housed in the dielectric 12, there is an advantage that no special space is required. In this case, the dielectric 12 is supported by being mounted on the lower guide rollers 5 and 5.

The one shown in FIG. 10 also has guide rollers 5 and 5.
The upper derivative 12 is rotated by driving the belt 402. In the figure, at both ends of the dielectric 12, the dielectric 12 supported on the lower guide rollers 5 and 5 is driven by the belt 402, but only one may be used. For stable support, the rotation stabilizing members 201, 201
Contacts the side surface of the derivative 12. As described above, in order to rotate the derivative 12, various effective and simple driving methods can be considered.

The present invention has the above-mentioned structure, and when this is used, since the heat-generating member 14 is for treating insects, it is attached to a place in contact with the wall via a heat insulating material or combustible material. At a position or location where does not contact the main body, you can hang it on the floor or mount it on the wall.

The heat source to be used is supplied by the heater 20, and when the temperature around the heat generating member 14 reaches about 70 degrees Celsius, the temperature fuse 22 incorporated in the electric circuit is melted to supply electricity to all electric parts. It has a structure to prevent the danger of being stopped.

In the present invention, means for catching insects include colors, lights and favorite foods, odors, etc. However, depending on the kind of insects or the place of installation, these may be appropriately added and selected for use. Of course you can. It is also possible to attract by heat. For example, as shown in FIG.
A colored light source 15 is provided inside the dielectric 12 for attraction. Ultraviolet rays 151 are also used as the colored light source. Ultraviolet rays are often used to collect insects. However, it should be noted that collecting insects by UV rays may also treat beneficial insects and destroy better natural ecosystems. At night, the light for catching insects can also be used as a safety light. Further, if an odor generating device for collecting other insects is installed in the storage box 17, it is possible to further collect insects.

[0041]
