Description

The present invention relates to an insect trap. In particular, the present invention relates to a trapping device which is excellent in the insecticidal effect of reptiles and which can be easily post-treated after trapping without directly using an ultraviolet lamp or the like as an attracting device.

Conventionally, in semiconductor factories, food factories and the like, it is not acceptable in terms of product management and hygiene that small insects such as salmon, salmon, salmon etc. intrude into the factory.
Therefore, while making a clean room inside a plant and using an air shower at an entrance and exit, a small insect may adhere to a thing to be carried in and a human body and intrude into a plant still.
Furthermore, even in convenience stores and homes, there has been a problem that many small insects intrude inside due to being attracted by light at night.
Therefore, various insect repellents to small insects have been proposed which are used not only in semiconductor factories and the like but also in convenience stores and homes.

For example, when an LED that emits ultraviolet light is used as an attractive light source, a suction trap has been proposed that can cool it efficiently. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 7, there is an opening in the vicinity of the suction opening 102 and at least one other opening, and the fan 103 generates an air flow. And aspirator 101 for sucking insects and capturing them in the worm trap 105.
And, the LED type ultraviolet ray emitter 104 is provided in the vicinity of the suction opening 102, and the LED type ultraviolet ray emitter 104 is in the form of a cylindrical body having a space, and the heat generating portion of the LED is in contact with the space or A suction trap 101 characterized by exposure and air cooling.

In addition, an insect catching device has been proposed which attracts an insect using an ultraviolet lamp as an attractive light source and uses an insect catching paper to capture the attracted insect. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 8, it has an attractive light source 202 consisting of an ultraviolet lamp for attracting insects, an insect catching paper 204 for capturing small reptiles, and openings at the front and back surfaces. , A trap 203 comprising a housing 203 having an attractive light source and a capturing paper inside.
Then, an attractive light source 202 composed of an ultraviolet lamp is disposed inside the housing 203, and in order to reflect the ultraviolet light from the attractive light source 202, the insect catching paper 204 is inclined so as to be directed to the attractive light source 202. It is an insect trap 201 to be provided.

However, even if the suction type insect catching device described in Patent Document 1 is nothing but using LEDs emitting ultraviolet light as the attracting device, when a person visually recognizes the ultraviolet radiation emitted from the attracting device. There was a problem of lack of safety.
In addition, such aspiration trap basically only captures small reptiles in the insect reservoir, and the insecticidal property of the small reptiles is insufficient, and furthermore, there is a problem that disposal is not easy. It was seen.
In other words, when recovering small reptiles from the aspirant trap of insects, they may remain alive, making them difficult to capture, making their processing difficult, and again, There was also a problem of running away to the outside.

In addition, since the trap described in Patent Document 2 basically uses an ultraviolet lamp as an attractive light source, safety is enhanced when a person visually recognizes ultraviolet light emitted from the ultraviolet lamp. There was a problem of lack of
Also, because insect catching paper is used, there is also a problem that the insect catching paper must be replaced frequently, depending on the usage environment, because the amount of captured insects is limited.

4. Charging Unit (1) Basic Configuration As illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, the charging unit (B) applies a high voltage and generates a predetermined discharge current by corona discharge to stabilize the reptiles. It is a part to be charged electrically.
Therefore, as illustrated in FIG. 1, the charging unit (B) applies a high voltage as a basic configuration, and a ground line (metal plate electrode, GND) for generating a discharge current of 1 μA to 20 mA, for example. It is preferable to have 14a and a discharge wire (metal wire) 14b.

(2) High voltage application condition 1
Then, a predetermined DC power supply or AC pulse power supply is electrically connected between the discharge line and the ground line (GND) to generate a discharge current of, for example, 1 μA to 20 mA. Is preferably applied.
As a high voltage application condition, more preferably, a high voltage of 2000 to 8000 V is applied to generate a discharge current of 3 μA to 15 mA, and more preferably, a discharge current of 5 μA to 10 mA is generated. To apply a high voltage of 4000-7000V.

(3) High voltage application condition 2
The power supply electrically connected between the discharge line and the ground line (GND) is usually a direct current power supply, but it is also preferable to electrically connect an alternating current pulse power supply and superimpose it on a direct current of a predetermined voltage.
That is, if it is an alternating current pulse of a predetermined voltage only on the positive side or only on the negative side, the same effect as the direct current derived from the direct current power supply can be obtained.

(4) Polarity of Discharge Current Also, by applying such a high voltage between the discharge line and the ground line (GND), a discharge current of a predetermined polarity is generated, and regardless of the type of reptile, It is desirable to ensure electrostatic charge to a predetermined charge or more.
That is, although the polarity of the high voltage may be either positive charging or negative charging, the high voltage polarity is determined and applied so as to be opposite to the polarity of the electric field generated in the capture portion described later. It is preferable to do.

5. Capture Unit (1) Basic Configuration As illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, the capture unit (C) includes a plurality of electrostatically charged reptiles in the charging unit (B) in which a predetermined electric field is generated. It is a part between the electrode-equipped flat plates 16 for capturing and causing electrocution or electrocution.
Therefore, as a basic configuration of the capture portion (C), a plurality of electrode-attached flat plates 16 are spaced apart at a predetermined interval, and the adjacent electrode-attached flat plates 16 are electrically insulated. And electrostatically charged reptiles can be electrically aspirated, electrocuted and physically captured.

(2) Polarity of electric field In addition, when a high voltage on the positive side is applied to small reptiles in the charging part (B), an electric field on the negative side is generated in the capturing part (C), and multiple electrodes are attached. It is preferred to trap the reptiles between the plates 16.
On the other hand, when a high voltage on the negative side is applied to the small reptile in the charging part (B), an electric field on the positive side is generated in the capturing part (C), and a plurality of flat plates 16 with electrodes are It is preferred to capture small reptiles.
That is, the reptiles electrostatically charged in the charging portion (B) are carried to the capturing portion (C) by the suction flow (air flow) and the electric suction power, and are captured there.

(3) Arrangement relationship 1 of flat plate with electrode
Further, as illustrated in FIG. 3C and FIG. 4C, in the capture portion (C), the distance (t1) between the adjacent flat plates 16 and 16 'with electrodes is within a range of 1 to 5 mm. It is preferable to The reason is that by limiting the distance (t1) of the flat plate with electrodes to a value within a predetermined range, the strength of a predetermined electric field generated between adjacent flat plates can be easily adjusted to a desired range. It is.
In addition, since small insects are captured between adjacent flat plates, etc., the size of various small insects can be obtained by limiting the interval (t1) to a value within a predetermined range. It can correspond.
Therefore, it is more preferable to set the distance (t1) between adjacent flat plates to a value within the range of 1.5 to 4.5 mm, and it is further preferable to set it to a value within the range of 2 to 4 mm.

As illustrated in FIGS. 5 (a) to 5 (c), the frame 16h of the capture portion (C) is a member for arranging the plurality of flat plates 16 with electrodes upright and separated at predetermined intervals. .
The frame 16h preferably includes a predetermined electrical wiring (not shown), and is preferably made of a known electrically insulating material such as polypropylene resin, epoxy resin, or phenolic resin.

(4) Arrangement relationship of flat plate with electrode 2
Further, the intervals between adjacent electrode-attached flat plates 16 do not necessarily have to be equal intervals (t1) as shown in FIG. 5A, and a plurality of electrodes arranged as shown in FIG. 5C. It is also preferable that the gap gradually narrows (t10 to t16) or conversely widens in the attached flat plate 16 from left to right or right to left.
The reason for this is that the field strength can be controlled to several values within an appropriate range, even for one capture portion, by making the intervals between adjacent electroded flat plates 16 uneven. This is because the electric field intensity can be adjusted to an appropriate range according to the size of the reptiles and the like.

Also, as shown in FIG. 5A, the plurality of flat plates 16 with electrodes do not necessarily have to be in a parallel relationship at an angle in the vertical direction (the perpendicular direction θ1), as shown in FIG. 5B. It is also preferable to have a configuration in which they are arranged in parallel in an inclined state at respective predetermined angles (θ2).
The reason for this is that, by arranging the electrode-equipped flat plates 16 in parallel in a tilted state, the area per one of the electrode-equipped flat plates 16 and 16 c can be made larger, and accordingly, depending on the size of the reptile etc. This is because the electric field strength can be adjusted to an appropriate range.

(5) Electric field intensity Moreover, it is preferable that the electric field intensity generate | occur | produced in the capture part (C) of the insect trap 10 is a value of 1 kV / mm or more.
The reason for this is that by setting the electric field generated between such adjacent flat plates to a desired range of values, electrostatically charged reptiles can be reliably captured in the capture portion (C). .

However, if the electric field strength generated in the capture portion (C) becomes excessively large, power consumption may be excessive or a power supply facility (not shown) for generating a predetermined electric field strength may be enlarged. .
Therefore, it is preferable to set the electric field strength generated in the capture portion (C) to a value within the range of 1 to 2 kV / mm.

(6) Non-combustible material In addition, in the capture portion (C), the flat plate 16 with the electrode contains paper containing non-combustible material, non-woven fabric containing non-combustible material, felt containing non-combustible material, non-combustible material Preferably, at least one of the following resins or non-combustible paper, non-combustible non-woven fabric, non-combustible felt, and non-combustible resin is used as a constituent material of the flat plate.
The reason for this is that by using such a nonflammable flat material, a predetermined voltage is applied continuously or intermittently, and even if a predetermined electric field is formed for a long period of time, a capture portion with excellent safety and It is because the capture part can be made into various desired forms.

Therefore, for example, paper, non-woven fabric, felt, or the like formed by impregnating or adhering magnesium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, halogen flame retardant, phosphoric acid flame retardant, phenol resin, polyimide resin or the like as the non-combustible material described above It is preferable to use at least one of the resins.
In addition, it is preferable that they are V1 or more of UL94V specification, or V0 as a standard of the nonflammability in a flat plate.

And as illustrated in FIG. 3A and FIG. 4A, the configuration of the flat plates 16a and 16'a, which is the main configuration of the capture portion (C), is not particularly limited.
Therefore, assuming that the flat plates 16a and 16'a are substantially rectangular, it is preferable to set their lengths (L1, L'1) to values within the range of 5 to 25 cm, and values within the range of 8 to 20 cm. It is preferable to set it to a value within the range of 10 to 15 cm.
Moreover, it is preferable to make width (L3, L'3) of flat plate 16a, 16'a into the value within the range of 4-15 cm, it is preferable to set it as the value within the range of 5-12 cm, and 6-10 cm It is further preferable to set the value within the range.

And a flat plate can be made into various aspects so that it may illustrate to Drawing 6 (a)-(e).
For example, the flat plate 16i shown in FIG. 6A is a normal resin plate and is excellent in lightness, electrical insulation, moldability, cost and the like.
Therefore, it is preferable to consist of heat resistant resins, such as a polyimide, a fluorine resin, and a flame-retardant polyester.

The flat plate 16j shown in FIG. 6 (b) is a flame retardant resin containing a predetermined amount (for example, 1 to 30% by weight with respect to the total amount) of a flame retardant (such as calcium hydroxide or a halogen-based flame retardant). It is a board derived from
If it is comprised from the flame retardant resin containing such a flame retardant, the safety | security of a capture part (C) can be heightened more.

The flat plate 16k shown in FIG. 6C is a woven or non-woven fabric derived from a heat resistant resin such as polyimide, a fluorine resin, or a flame retardant polyester.
Such a woven or non-woven fabric has an advantage that the surface area is increased and the capture efficiency is further enhanced.

The flat plate 16l shown in FIG. 6 (d) is a predetermined perforated resin plate.
Therefore, in consideration of air permeability, durability, lightness, and the like, it is usually preferable to use a perforated resin plate provided with a through hole having a diameter of 0.1 to 3 mm.

The flat plate 16m shown in FIG. 6 (e) is a grooved resin plate in which a groove 16n having a semicircular or square cross section with a predetermined depth is formed on the surface.
Therefore, it is possible to form a predetermined conductive print layer simply by applying a conductive resin along the grooves and then smoothing the surface with a squeegee or the like.

(7) Conductive resin printed layer Further, as illustrated in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, an electrode 16 b for applying a predetermined potential to the flat plates 16 a and 16 ′ a which is another main configuration of the capture portion (C). , 16'b, it is preferable that a substantially linear conductive resin print layer be provided.
The reason for this is that by providing such a conductive resin printed layer, it is possible to adjust a predetermined surface resistance, and it is extremely easy and accurate to form the same.
Moreover, with the predetermined conductive resin print layer, even if a predetermined voltage is applied between adjacent flat plates for a long period of time, it is possible to make the capture portion excellent in safety.

That is, copper, silver, gold, nickel, solder, tin, stainless steel, etc. for epoxy resin, polyester resin, silicone resin, fluorine resin, polyimide resin, phenol resin, etc. as an electrically insulating main agent (vehicle) A conductive paste is produced by blending a predetermined amount of a conductive material.
Next, the conductive paste is printed, for example, in a line shape by a screen printing method or the like.

Lastly, the printed conductive paste is thermally cured under heating conditions of 80 to 200 ° C. for 10 to 60 minutes using an oven or the like, and the surface resistance is, for example, 100 to 10000 ohms / hour. It is preferable to set it as the conductive resin printed layer of the range of □.
Further, it is more preferable to thermally cure the printed conductive paste under predetermined heating conditions to obtain a conductive resin print layer in the range of 200 to 5000 ohms / square, and a conductivity in the range of 300 to 1000 ohms / square. It is further preferable to use a conductive resin print layer.

  In addition, as exemplified in FIG. 3 or FIG. 4, when the electrodes 16b and 16'b for applying such a predetermined potential are formed of a conductive resin printed layer and are assumed to be substantially rectangular, In order to adjust the surface resistance value to a value within a predetermined range, it is preferable to set the length (L2, L'2) to a value within the range of 3 to 20 cm, and a value within the range of 4 to 15 cm It is more preferable that the value be in the range of 6 to 10 cm.

In addition, it is preferable to also consider the length (L1, L'1) of a flat plate from the easiness of formation of a predetermined electric field such length (L2, L'2) of a conductive resin printing layer, It is preferable to make it shorter than the length (L1, L'1) of the flat plate.
More specifically, it is preferable to set the length (L2, L'2) of the conductive resin print layer to 95% or less of the length (L1, L'1) of the flat plate, and 90% or less Is more preferable, and 80% or less is more preferable.

  Similarly, assuming that the surface resistance is approximately rectangular, the width (L4) is preferably in the range of 5 to 50 mm, preferably 10 to 45 mm, in order to adjust the value of the surface resistance to a value within the predetermined range. It is preferable to set it as the value within the range of, and it is further preferable to set it as the value within the range of 20 to 40 mm.

(8) Electrode Arrangement Also, as illustrated in FIG. 4B, when a plurality of flat plates 16 ′ with electrodes are viewed from above, the formed electrodes (conductive resin printed layer) 16 ′ b are: Preferably, they are provided in a staggered manner.
That is, assuming the center line (L) along the formation direction of the electrode (conductive resin printed layer) 16'b, the adjacent electrode-provided flat plate 16 'sandwiches the center line (L), and Preferably, the electrode (conductive resin printed layer) 16'b is formed such that the electrode (conductive resin printed layer) 16'b is positioned in the direction (or the vertical direction).

More specifically, as exemplified in FIGS. 4 (a) and 4 (b), one electrode is seen when the plurality of electrode-attached flat plates 16 'are viewed from above assuming the center line (L). In the attached flat plate 16 ', the electrode (conductive resin printed layer) 16'b is formed at a lower position than the center line (L).
Then, it is preferable to form an electrode (conductive resin printed layer) 16'b so as to be above the center line (L) of the other adjacent electrode-equipped flat plate 16 '.
The reason for this is that by forming the electrode (conductive resin print layer) in this way, when viewed from above, they will be arranged in a staggered manner, and thus, the electric field generated between adjacent flat plates will be more It is because it can be made uniform and large in area.

6. Suction Device The configuration of the suction devices 20 and 20 ′ illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 is not particularly limited as long as the suction flow can be effectively generated, but it is a fan (including a cross flow fan), It is preferable to use at least one suction device such as a vacuum suction device, a pressure reduction device, or a fan.
Therefore, it is preferable to provide a fan at the suction part or at another place for suctioning the reptiles by the generated suction flow.

Furthermore, as illustrated in FIG. 1, by providing the suction device 20 above the capture unit (C), from the lower suction unit (A) to the upper capture unit (C) inside the housing 12. Suction flow can be easily generated, which is the vertical air flow that follows.
