Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an exterminator for exterminating pests, and more particularly to an exterminator capable of surely capturing and exterminating pests without soiling hands.
[0002]
[Prior art]
For example, pests such as cockroaches, stink bugs, and centipedes often appear in the natural world when the outside temperature becomes warm in summer, but recently, with the spread of air conditioning equipment, indoors even in winter. Cockroaches are starting to show their appearance.
[0003]
Such pests are very resistant to combating them by hand, especially women who feel dirty and have a pronounced resistance.
[0004]
Therefore, various methods have been proposed in which a vacuum suction cleaner is used to apply or suck a drug in a dust pack, suck a pest, capture the dust in the dust pack, and exterminate the drug with the drug (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open (JP-A) No. 2002-131131). JP-A-62-40237, JP-A-62-47328, JP-A-61-110362, JP-A-63-50802, and the like.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, even if the pests are captured in the dust pack by the vacuum suction cleaner, a large amount of dust and dirt are sucked into the dust pack, so that the pests can be sucked into the dust pack inlet before the medicine is effective. Crawls outside through a suction pipe or suction hose.
[0006]
The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a pest catching and controlling machine capable of reliably capturing and controlling pests without soiling hands.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
Therefore, the pest catching and removing machine according to the present invention is a trapping and removing machine capable of sucking and capturing pests by the suction force of air and removing the pests with a medicine, wherein an air suction port is formed, and the air suction port is formed in the air suction port. Is equipped with a filter section that prevents pest inhalation, the built-in fan rotates by switch operation and sucks and exhausts air from the air suction port, and it can be removed to the equipment body covering the air suction port And a pest suction port is formed. The pest suction port is provided with a shielding valve for preventing the pest from crawling out. The pest is sucked from the pest suction port by the air suction of the device main body to capture the inside. And a capture container formed with an inlet for directly spraying the drug on the captured pest while being captured in the space.
[0008]
One of the features of the present invention resides in that the pests are sucked into the trapping space by using the suction power of the air of the apparatus main body to be trapped. This makes it possible to capture pests such as cockroaches without soiling the hands, and thus without causing women to feel resistance.
[0009]
Another feature of the present invention resides in that the trapping space has a structure in which the trapped pests cannot crawl, and an inlet for injecting a drug into the trapping space is provided. Thus, even if dust or dirt is sucked into the capture space, the captured pests can be reliably exterminated by directly spraying a chemical such as an insecticide.
[0010]
The pest suction port may have a form in which an opening is formed in the capture container, but it is preferable that the cockroaches escape quickly, so that the pest can be reliably sucked from a remote place.
Therefore, it is preferable to connect a suction pipe to the insect pest suction port of the capture container, and to provide a capture cap for covering the pest from above at the tip of the suction pipe.
[0011]
The shape of the capturing cap is not particularly limited, but a trapezoidal or hemispherical shape can be adopted so that the escaping pests can be reliably caught from above.
[0012]
The material of the capture cap is not particularly limited, but a soft material such as rubber or a soft synthetic resin material is preferably used so as not to damage the floor and the tatami mat in the room. Although the suction pipe may have a fixed length, it is preferable that the suction pipe has a structure that can be extended and contracted so that the length can be adjusted so that the pest can be sucked from a remote place without fail.
[0013]
The device body may have any shape and structure as long as it has a built-in fan and can suck air. Further, the power supply for driving the fan may be a commercial power supply, but it cannot be used unless there is an outlet nearby, and it is troublesome because the power cord needs to be routed. Therefore, it is preferable to incorporate a battery such as a dry battery.
[0014]
Further, it is preferable to form a hand-held grip so that the device main body can be easily carried and operated and the pests can be reliably captured.
[0015]
It is preferable to use a spray can type in which the medicine is filled in a can and sprayed from the tip of the nozzle tube, and it is preferable to form a hole at the injection port of the medicine into which the nozzle tube can be inserted. In this case, since the injection port is small, even if the injection port is opened, there is little adverse effect such as a decrease in the air suction force of the apparatus body. However, in order to reliably use the original air suction force of the device body for sucking the pests, it is preferable to provide a lid for sealing the injection port at the injection port for the medicine.
[0016]
The shield valve of the pest suction port is important in preventing caught pests from crawling out of the pest suction port, and it is necessary to shield the pest suction port immediately after the air suction of the main body of the device is stopped.
[0017]
For example, when the shield valve of the catcher is urged by a spring member in a direction to close the insect pest suction port, and is opened against the urging force by the suction force of the air of the device main body, a very simple configuration is achieved. In this way, pest crawling can be reliably prevented.
[0018]
Further, instead of the urging force of the spring member, the shield valve may be attracted by utilizing the magnetic force of the magnet, and the shield valve may be opened against the magnetic force by the attraction of the air of the device body. it can.
[0019]
Further, the shield valve may be sucked by utilizing the magnetic force of the electromagnet, the power supply to the electromagnet may be turned off by a switch operation, and the shield valve may be opened by the suction force of the air of the device body.
[0020]
