Up to now, a configuration example of the pest control device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention has been described. From here, an example of a method for manufacturing the pest control device 100 according to the present embodiment will be described.

<Example of manufacturing method of pest control device 100>

The method for manufacturing the pest control device 100 includes a step of preparing each of the parts constituting the pest control device 101, a bottom member 103, and a cover 104, and a step of assembling the pest control device 100. Each process will be explained.

(Preparation of pesticide 101, bottom member 103 and cover 104)
Each of the pesticide 101, the bottom member 103, and the cover 104 is manufactured.

The bottom member 103 includes the stack accommodating portion 112 as described above. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 9, at least a part of the other bottom member 103a located above the bottom part 106a is accommodated in the stack space of the stack accommodating part 112, so that the bottom member 103 and the other parts are accommodated. The bottom member 103a can be stacked vertically.

FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a state in which the bottom member 103 according to the present embodiment and another bottom member 103a are stacked, and shows a cross section taken along a line corresponding to line BB in FIG. 2. Although FIG. 9 shows a state in which two bottom members 103, 103a are stacked, three or more bottom members 103 can be stacked by stacking them in the same way.

By stacking the plurality of bottom members 103 in this manner, the volume occupied by the plurality of bottom members 103 can be made smaller than in the case where the stack accommodating portion 112 is not provided. Therefore, it is possible to improve the transport efficiency when transporting the plurality of bottom members 103. Further, for example, if a set of a plurality of pesticides 101, bottom members 103, and covers 104 is sold in an unassembled state and assembled by a user, it becomes possible to save space when selling a plurality of bottom members 103. .

Here, the other bottom member 103a is a bottom member 103a that constitutes another pest control container 102a. The parts located above the bottom part 106a are the protruding part 107a, the strut part 108a, the holding rib 109a, and the guide rib 110a.

Further, as described above, the upper end of the guide rib 110a is inclined inward as it goes upward. Therefore, the guide ribs 110a can be easily fitted into the stack grooves 118, and the plurality of bottom members 103 can be easily stacked. Therefore, it is possible to improve the efficiency of stacking the plurality of bottom members 103.

Furthermore, since the stack groove 118 and the guide rib 110a fit together, it is possible to restrict mutual rotation of the bottom member 103 and the other bottom members 103 about the vertical axis. Therefore, a plurality of bottom members 103 can be easily stacked. Therefore, it is possible to improve the efficiency of stacking the plurality of bottom members 103.

Cover 104 and other covers 104 can be similarly stacked vertically. Therefore, the volume occupied by the plurality of covers 104 can be reduced. Therefore, it becomes possible to improve the efficiency of transporting the plurality of covers 104. Further, for example, if a set of a plurality of pesticides 101, bottom members 103, and covers 104 is sold in an unassembled state and assembled by a user, space can be saved when selling a plurality of covers 104.

(Assembling pest control device 100)
A pesticide 101 is placed on the bottom member 103. FIG. 10 is a perspective view of the bottom member 103 on which the pesticide 101 according to the present embodiment is placed.

A cover 104 is attached to the bottom member 103 on which the pesticide 101 is placed (see FIG. 1). Specifically, the cover 104 is attached to the bottom member 103 by fitting each of the four fitting parts 120 into the corresponding four fitting holes 116. As a result, an internal space SP and an opening 105 are formed. Further, both ends of each of the protrusions 111 are in contact with the lower ends of the sides of the opening 105 .

At this time, the guide rib 110 contacts the inner surface of the wall portion 122 or is located near the inner surface (see FIG. 4). Therefore, when covering the cover 104 from above the bottom member 103 , by aligning the wall portion 122 along the guide rib 110 , the fitting portion 120 is guided to fit into the fitting hole 116 . In this way, the bottom member 103 includes the guide ribs 110, thereby making it easy to attach the cover 104 to the bottom member 103. Therefore, the pest control device 100 can be easily assembled.

Furthermore, at least a portion of the bottom portion 106 located more inward than the cover 104 separates the upper portion and the lower portion of the portion. That is, at least in the part of the bottom part 106 that is located inward of the cover 104 when the bottom member 103 and the cover 104 are assembled, the bottom part 106 has a through hole in the vertical direction that connects the upper part and the lower part of the part. Contains no configuration.

Further, the tip of the eaves portion 123 is located directly above the periphery of the bottom portion 106 or inward from directly above the periphery of the bottom portion 106 when viewed from above. The tip of the eaves portion 123 according to the present embodiment is located approximately right above the peripheral edge of the bottom portion 106 (the tip of the extension portion 114) when viewed from above.

(How to use pest control device 100)
One or more pest control devices 100 are used by being installed around plants such as flowers, ornamental plants, and vegetables. Pests that cause damage to plants enter the internal space SP through the opening 105 and feed on the pesticide 101. Thereby, it is possible to prevent damage to plants caused by pests, and also to exterminate pests. In this embodiment, since the pest control agent 101 has the effect of attracting pests, it is possible to attract the pests to the pest control agent 101 and make them eat the pest control agent 101. Therefore, the pest control effect can be improved.

When installing a plurality of pest control devices 100, the plurality of pest control devices 100 may be installed at intervals, or may be arranged close to each other in the front-back direction or the left-right direction. FIG. 11 is a plan view showing an installation example of the pest control device 100 according to the present embodiment. FIG. 11 shows an example in which six pest control devices 100 are installed adjacent to each other in the front-rear direction and left-right direction. Further, although FIG. 11 shows an example in which adjacent extensions 114 are connected via a connection part, this connection part can be easily separated, so one or more of the pest control devices 100 can be connected. It can be separated and placed. In addition, in FIG. 11, since the extending part 114 is located below the eaves part 123, the extending part 114 itself is not shown.

Up to now, an example of a method for manufacturing pest control device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention has been described. From here, the functions and effects of the pest control device 100 according to the present embodiment will be explained.

The placement part 115 is a part for placing the pesticide 101, and is located above the bottom part 106. The cover 104 covers the upper part of the arrangement section 115. At least one opening 105 forms an opening that connects the interior space SP to the outside.

Thereby, the pesticide 101 can be placed above the bottom portion 106. Therefore, even if liquid such as rainwater or sprinkled water enters the internal space SP from the opening 105, there is a possibility that the pesticide 101 will come into contact with the liquid, a possibility that the pesticide 101 will be immersed in the liquid, and a possibility that the pesticide 101 will be immersed in the liquid. It is possible to reduce the possibility that the information will be lost due to being washed away. Therefore, it becomes possible to maintain the efficacy of the pesticide 101 for a long time.

Furthermore, the pest control agent 101 can be held in the pest control container 102. Thereby, even if the liquid that has entered the internal space SP comes into contact with the pesticide 101, the liquid containing the components of the pesticide 101 will be difficult to flow out. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the components of the pesticide 101 from directly adhering to soil or plants.

Furthermore, the pesticide 101 can be held in the pest control container 102. Therefore, it is possible to prevent children, pets, etc. from accidentally ingesting the repellent 101. When installing the pest control device 100 using the pest control container 102, it is possible to avoid direct contact with the pest control agent 101.

According to this embodiment, the arrangement portion 115 is provided at the upper end of the protrusion 107 that projects upward from the bottom portion 106.

Thereby, the pesticide 101 can be placed above the bottom portion 106. Therefore, even if liquid such as rainwater or sprinkled water enters the internal space SP from the opening 105, there is a possibility that the pesticide 101 will come into contact with the liquid, a possibility that the pesticide 101 will be immersed in the liquid, and a possibility that the pesticide 101 will be immersed in the liquid. It is possible to reduce the possibility that the information will be lost due to being washed away. Therefore, it becomes possible to maintain the efficacy of the pesticide 101 for a long time.

Furthermore, the pest control agent 101 can be held in the pest control container 102. Thereby, even if the liquid that has entered the internal space SP comes into contact with the pesticide 101, the liquid containing the components of the pesticide 101 will be difficult to flow out. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the components of the pesticide 101 from directly adhering to soil or plants.

Furthermore, the pesticide 101 can be held in the pest control container 102. Therefore, it is possible to prevent children, pets, etc. from accidentally ingesting the repellent 101. When installing the pest control device 100 using the pest control container 102, it is possible to avoid direct contact with the pest control agent 101.

According to this embodiment, the cover 104 has an eave portion 123 that projects outward at the top of the opening 105.

This makes it difficult for liquids such as rainwater and sprinkled water to enter the internal space SP from the opening 105. Therefore, the possibility that the pesticide 101 comes into contact with the liquid, the possibility that the pesticide 101 is immersed in the liquid, the possibility that the pesticide 101 is washed away by the liquid and disappears, etc. can be reduced. Therefore, it becomes possible to maintain the efficacy of the pesticide 101 for a long time.

According to the present embodiment, the tip of the eaves portion 123 is located directly above the periphery of the bottom portion 106 or inward from directly above the periphery of the bottom portion 106 when viewed from above.

Thereby, the pest control apparatuses 100 using the pest control containers 102 can be arranged closer to each other than in the case where the eaves part 123 is located outward from just above the periphery of the bottom part 106. Therefore, the volume occupied by the plurality of pest control devices 100 can be reduced. Therefore, it is possible to improve the transportation efficiency when transporting a plurality of pest control devices 100 in an assembled state. Further, for example, when the pest control device 100 is sold in an assembled state, it is possible to save space when selling the pest control device 100.

According to this embodiment, the lower part of opening 105 is constituted by bottom 106 .

This allows the lower part of the opening 105 to be brought closer to the installation surface such as the ground, making it easier for pests such as slugs to enter the internal space SP from the opening 105. Therefore, it is possible to improve the pest control effect of the pest control device 100 using the pest control container 102.

According to the present embodiment, a protrusion 111 that protrudes upward from the bottom 106 and extends across the entire width of the opening 105 is further provided.

Thereby, even if the liquid that has entered the internal space SP comes into contact with the pesticide 101, the liquid containing the components of the pesticide 101 will be difficult to flow out. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the components of the pesticide 101 from directly adhering to soil or plants.

According to this embodiment, the bottom portion 106 includes an outwardly projecting extension portion 114 at the outer edge corresponding to the opening portion 105.

This ensures that when a plurality of pest control devices 100 using pest control containers 102 are installed side by side, the openings 105 of adjacent pest control devices 100 are placed so close that pests cannot pass through. It can be prevented. Therefore, it is possible to improve the pest control effect of the pest control device 100 using the pest control container 102.

According to this embodiment, the opening 105 has a width of 6 mm to 12 mm and a height of 6 mm to 10 mm.

This makes the opening 105 relatively small, making it difficult for liquids such as rainwater and sprinkled water to enter the internal space SP from the opening 105. Therefore, the possibility that the pesticide 101 comes into contact with the liquid, the possibility that the pesticide 101 is immersed in the liquid, the possibility that the pesticide 101 is washed away by the liquid and disappears, etc. can be reduced. Therefore, it becomes possible to maintain the efficacy of the pesticide 101 for a long time.

According to this embodiment, the bottom member 103 including the bottom portion 106 and the placement portion 115 and the cover 104 are configured separately. The lower surface portion of the bottom member 103 includes a stack accommodating portion 112 that forms a stack space for accommodating at least a portion of the portion of the other bottom member 103a located above the bottom portion 106a.
