Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 This invention relates to an insect trap that can trap harmful insects such as cockroaches.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, various insect trapping tools for trapping harmful insects such as cockroaches have been proposed. First of all, there is something related to fly-strike insect traps. For example, Japanese Utility Model Sho 57-4853, Utility Model Sho 58-12627, and Utility Model Sho 59-6704 are all related to this fly striking type, and various proposals have been made such as devising the striking surface.

However, the above-mentioned tapping method has poor catching efficiency and has an unsanitary surface such as crushing insects and flowing out body fluids. It was For example, as a prior art, in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 55-35987, a plurality of sheets of paper coated with an adhesive on the hitting surface are stacked and the peripheral edge is held by a frame-shaped frame, and a soft cushioning agent is attached to this frame. Are proposing things.

[0004] In Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 61-40135, one set is made by applying an adhesive to one side of cardboard, and then sticking release paper on top of the set, and stacking these sets one after another. Proposed is a block that is bonded to each other and is attached to the outermost cardboard. However, since these conventional sticky insect traps were too hard, they were difficult to bend by hand, and there was resistance especially for women. When the insects were wrapped in the insect trap, they had to be bent strongly with both hands, which could crush the insects and exude body fluid, which was unsanitary.

In view of this, Japanese Patent Application No. 1-178382 discloses a set in which an adhesive is applied to one surface of a plate-like elastic body and release paper is attached to the elastic body, and the plurality of sets are sequentially superposed. It is proposed that they are bonded to each other to form one block, and that they are bonded to a striking plate with a handle via a fixing plate. The plate-like elastic body absorbs the impact force of the striking plate, adheres and captures insects well, and the problem of insect crushing does not occur. However, there is a drawback in that the adhesive-coated surface is sticky to the floor surface and the workability is poor. Moreover, in order to treat the captured insects together with the adhesive-coated plate-like elastic body, it was necessary to work with both hands while observing the captured insects. Cockroaches are hated by people, and many women, especially women, are irritable. There is a demand to be able to dispose of the insects with one hand without seeing them. Conventional insect traps have not been able to meet this demand effectively.

[0006] Further, in the case where a plate-like elastic body having a pressure-sensitive adhesive applied on one surface and release paper attached thereon is sequentially superposed and adhered to each other, the pressure-sensitive adhesive is deteriorated and cured with time. However, since the flexibility is lost and the adhesive effect is weakened, the capture rate decreases. In particular, since the body surface of cockroaches is round and oily, the adhesive-coated surface of the plate-like elastic body covers the body surface of the cockroaches and if there is no surface contact, there are many cases where the body escapes.

[0007]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 Therefore, as soon as you find a cockroach, you can quickly hit it with the adhesive-coated surface of the soft resin trap board of this insect trap to cover it, wrap the cockroach and make a surface contact, but do not crush the insect body and cover it with the adhesive-coated surface. It is surely captured, and the adhesive-coated surface adheres to the floor surface so that it is not difficult to work, there is no deterioration of the adhesive, there is no psychological dislike in use, and it is hygienic. It is an object of the present invention to provide an insect trap that can be used with one hand and with one touch.

[0008]

A predetermined angle is maintained and crimping force is applied between the plate and the holding plate. It can be preferably achieved by the at (1) to (7) trapping device according.

[0016]

[Action]

 To remove cockroaches, grasp the handle of the insect trap board with one hand, peel off the release paper from the beating surface, and cover the cockroach with the insect trap in the same manner as you flick the fly. The insect trapping plate that is sandwiched between the plate and the holding plate does not have adhesive applied, or the applied surface is placed inside to facilitate the attachment / detachment, and the release paper at this part is left like a tongue. , It is easy to peel off the release paper on the beating surface. Remove the release paper on the beating surface just before use as it will be dusty.

The cockroach covered with the insect trap is attached to the pressure-sensitive adhesive of the insect trap, deprived of freedom of movement, and can be trapped. At this time, since the surface shape of the insect trap plate coated with the adhesive is formed into a corrugated shape, and the convex portions are formed in a mesh shape or embossed, the insect trap plate comes into line or point contact with the floor surface, and the floor surface Since it has a weak contact force with, it can be easily peeled from the floor, and only cockroaches can be picked up and lifted from the floor. In addition, since the insect trap plate is not rigid and is close to paper, it must be swung with a whip when hitting insects with it. The area of the upper holder plate is important because it is difficult to control the insect trap when the area of the upper holder plate is small. If it is too small, it is difficult to operate, and if it is too large, the insect body may be crushed, and the insect trapping plate must be thickened.

The lifted insect board is folded in a manner similar to making a Kashiwa mochi, and the back surface not coated with an adhesive is pressed against the floor surface to fold it in half and wrap the cockroach in it. The insect trap can be easily folded in two by making a cut at a right angle to the longitudinal direction on the back surface that is not coated with adhesive. It is not necessary to look at the insects when stacking the insect trap plates in half with the insect body inside because you can tell that you caught the insects without escaping. Therefore, the operator is not made to feel uncomfortable or disliked during this period.

The cockroaches encased in it are hygienic because they are in a sealed state, and disposal is easy. In other words, they are folded in two and the insect trap board with the cockroaches wrapped in it is carried to the trash as it is, and the bar attached to the handle is pulled by the finger of the hand holding the handle to hold the insect trap plate. The plate between the plate and the holding plate loosened, and the insect trapping plate, which was folded in two and wrapped in cockroaches, fell into the trash due to gravity and was safely, reliably, easily and hygienically captured. You can throw away the cockroaches. During this time, all work can be done with one hand.

The mechanism for tightening and loosening the plate holding the insect trap plate and the retainer plate is as follows. In a mounting mode in which the plate of the upper holder and the holding plate of the lower holder sandwich the insect trapping plate, a predetermined angle is maintained between the handle and the bar by an elastic body, preferably a torsion coil spring with arms. At the same time, a crimping force is applied between the plate and the holding plate, and a detaching / attaching module for removing the insect trapping plate from the holding between the plate of the upper holder and the holding plate of the lower holder. With the handle, one shaft can be gripped by one-touch operation of grasping the bar against the urging force of the elastic body, preferably the torsion coil spring with arm, and grasping it together with the fingertips while holding the handle of the upper holder. Based on the lever principle centering on the fulcrum that pivotally supports the plate and the bar, the plate and the pressing plate are separated, and the pressure force that acts between them is eliminated, and the insect trap plate can be dropped and removed by its own weight.

To prepare for the next insect trap, a new insect trap plate may be inserted and loaded while holding the handle and bar together with the plate and the holding plate separated. Preliminarily stacking a plurality of insect traps causes a problem of alteration of the adhesive.

【Example】

 Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a plan view showing an insect trap 1 of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line AA of FIG.

As is apparent from FIGS. 1 and 2, the insect trap 1 of the present invention comprises a soft insect trap 2 and a plate 3 of an upper holder with a handle 4 and a lower portion with a bar 6. It is clamped between the holder and the holding plate 5. FIG. 3 shows the lower holder of the insect trap 1. The two protrusions 12 on the holding plate 5 fit into the two holes 11 formed in the plate 3, and the serrated protrusions 13 on the periphery of the opening of the holding plate 5 cut into the insect trap plate 2. Securely fix the soft insect trap plate 2. Plastic was used as the material for the plate 3 and handle 4 of the upper holder of the support 1, the holding plates 5 and 6 of the lower holder, and the caps for preventing the shaft 8 from falling off at both ends.

The handle 4 had a slightly thin base and was thicker toward the tip, and the hollow cylinder was half-cracked before use. A shaft hole 9 is formed at the base of the shaft, and a grip 10 is provided at the tip of the shaft hole 9. The handle 4 has a width of about 1,7 cm at the shaft hole 9 at the base, a width of about 2.3 cm and a length of about 29 cm at the grip 10 portion 3 to 10 cm from the tip, and two pieces are provided at the grip 10 portion. The fin 14 was attached to the longitudinal direction of the half-split hollow cylinder for easy grip.

The bar 6 is a hollow body having a U-shaped cross section except for the tip end, and the open surface faces the open surface of the handle 4. The bar 6 is bent at the base in the shape of a "ku", and when the plate 3 of the upper holder and the holding plate 6 of the lower holder are in contact with each other, the base of the bar 6 is a handle. No. 4 was penetrated, and the tip of the bent point was separated from the handle 4 and extended in a straight line so that the length was about 15 cm and an angle of about 15 ° was formed between the handle 4 and the handle 4. A shaft hole 9'was provided at the bending point. A convex portion 15 was provided at the tip. The convex portion 15 allows the index finger to pull the bar 6 while holding the grip 10 of the handle 4.

The metal holder 8 was passed through the shaft hole 9 of the handle 4 and the shaft hole 9 ′ at the bending point of the bar 6, and both ends were fixed with plastic caps to integrate the upper holder and the lower holder. Further, inside the hollow bodies of the handle 4 and the bar 6, an arm insertion hole of the twist coil spring with arms is formed so as to face each other. The two arms of the torsion coil spring 7 with arms are directed toward the shaft 8, and the tips of the two arms of the spring 7 are inserted into the corresponding insertion openings of the handle 4 and the bar 6 and fixed. . Then, the urging force of the torsion coil spring with arm 7 maintains an angle of about 15 degrees formed between the handle 4 and the bar 6, and also holds the plate 3 of the upper holder and the lower holder. A pressing force is generated between the plate 6 and the upper holder and the lower holder are integrated with each other. The angle of about 15 degrees formed between the handle 4 and the bar 6 is set so that the handle 4 is about 29 cm long and the handle 6 can be pulled with the forefinger while holding the handle 10 of the handle 4. This is because it was taken into consideration.

In the detaching mode in which the soft insect trapping plate 2 is discarded or replaced by relaxing the crimping force between the plate 3 of the upper holder and the holding plate 5 of the lower holder, the grip 10 of the handle 4 is held. With the index finger, if necessary, with the index finger, if necessary, pull in the convex portion 15 of the bar 6 against the biasing force of the torsion coil spring with arm 7, the bar 6 is stored in the hollow portion of the handle 4. It Therefore, the coil diameter of the torsion coil spring with arm 7 must be a diameter that does not prevent the bar 6 from being stored in the hollow portion of the handle 4. When the bar 6 is housed in the hollow portion of the handle 4 against the biasing force, an elastic body that does not hinder the housing can be used instead of the armed torsion coil spring 7, for example.

FIG. 4 is a plan view with the hitting surface of the insect trap plate 2 facing upward, and FIG. 5 is a perspective view thereof. In the insect trap plate 2, an adhesive was applied to one surface of a soft resin base 40 to form an adhesive film layer 41, and a release paper 42 was left on the adhesive film layer 41, and was peeled off immediately before use. However, the portion 43 of the area in which the holding plate 5 of the upper holder and the holding plate 5 of the lower holder sandwich the insect trapping plate 2 is not coated with an adhesive agent for attachment / detachment, or the adhesive film layer 41 is placed inside. Then, the adhesive film layer 41 was made to overlap so as not to be exposed. The release paper in the area where the adhesive was not applied was partially or wholly left in a tongue shape to facilitate the release.

Although urethane resin (form) was used for the soft insect trap plate 2, foamed polyethylene resin or acrylic resin may be used instead.

Although the shape of the insect trap plate 2 is cocoon-shaped, it may be circular, elliptical, square or rectangular. In this embodiment, the cocoon-like shape has a horizontal length of 17.5 cm and a vertical length of about 10 cm.

FIG. 6 shows a cross-sectional view (waveform) of the insect trap plate 2. The adhesive-coated surface undulates due to the waves, and cockroaches enter the recesses of the waves for easy capture, and the protrusions make a line contact with the floor surface to reduce the adhesive force, and the insect trap 2 is removed from the floor surface. Can be easily separated. It is also possible to achieve line contact with the floor surface by providing a mesh-shaped projection on the adhesive-coated surface of the insect trap plate 2. In this case, it is preferable that the size of the mesh is a square of the average body length of the cockroach.

FIG. 7 shows a cross-sectional view (embossing) of the insect trap plate 2. However, the release paper is not shown for convenience of drawing. Since the top of the embossed float 70 comes into point contact with the floor surface and the cockroaches enter between the points, it is easier to catch and the insect trap 2 can be more easily separated from the floor surface. When a mesh-shaped convex portion is provided on the adhesive-coated surface, if the cross-section that crosses the side of the grid is taken, it will be the same as the cross-section in FIG.

A cut was made at a right angle to the longitudinal direction on the surface of the insect trap plate 2 to which the adhesive was not applied. This is because it is easy to fold the insect trapping plate in two when the cockroach is wrapped in it by pressing the back surface without the insect trapping plate against the floor.

The cockroaches that have been captured by sticking wrap the cockroaches by pressing the upper surface of the insect trap plate 2 (upper side of FIG. 3) against the floor surface, etc., and the lower surface of the insect trap plate 2 (lower side of FIG. 3) is stuck together. With the handle closed, hold the handle 4, lower the insect trap 1 in one hand and carry it to the trash. When wrapping cockroaches, the cuts made in the back surface of the insect trap plate 2 (upper side in FIG. 3) make the work easier.

On the trash can, when the insect trap plate 2 in which cockroaches are wrapped like Kashiwa mochi is placed downward and the bar 6 is pulled toward the handle 4, the presser plate 5 moves outward with the shaft 8 as a fulcrum ( 2), the force sandwiching the insect trapping plate 2 from both sides between the plate 3 and the holding plate 5 is released, and the two protrusions 12 on the holding plate 5 are exposed to the plate 3. After passing through the two holes 11 and without the sawtooth-like projections 13 biting in, the insect trap plate 2 enclosing the cockroaches becomes a free-fall and falls to the lower trash can by its own weight.

Next, the mechanism of operation of the insect trap 1 will be described below. The presser plate 5 moves with the bar 6. That is, in the standby mode waiting for the appearance of cockroaches, the pressing plate 5 is pressed against the plate 3 by the pressing force of the torsion coil spring 7 with arms, and the insect trapping plate 2 is firmly fixed. In the mode of catching cockroaches and discarding them, pulling the bar 6 toward the handle 4 against the repulsive force of the torsion coil spring with arm 7 causes the holding plate 5 to move outside with the shaft 8 as a fulcrum. It rotates to one side (downward in FIG. 2) to reach the opening. The same applies to the insect trap plate 2 replacement mode, in which the bar 6 is pulled toward the handle 4 against the repulsive force of the spring 7.

Although the cockroaches have been mainly described above, the insect trap of the present invention is also effective for trapping other harmful insects. Also, only the effects on the floor surface were described, but the same applies to the wall surface and others. In particular, when catching pests such as moths on the ceiling, the length cannot be achieved with the length of the handle 4 described in the above embodiment, so it is necessary to extend this to about 2 to 3 times. . In that case, the length of the bar 6 remains as it is. Only at the stage of catching the pests and discarding them, grasp the place where the bar 6 can be attracted again by holding it at the fingertip of the grasped hand, or with one hand of the free hand. This is because the same purpose can be achieved by attracting As is apparent from this point, the insect trap of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment.

[0039]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, according to the insect trap of the present invention, when the cockroach is found, the release paper is peeled off, and the cockroach is wrapped even if it is tapped quickly with the adhesive-coated surface of the soft resin trap of the insect trap. Since the surface contact is made, the insect body is not crushed and can be reliably captured by the adhesive-coated surface. Since the surface coated with adhesive is in line or point contact with the floor, there is no need to stick to the floor and make the work difficult. Moreover, there is no deterioration of the adhesive. After capturing, you can work without looking at the insects, so there is no psychological dislike, hygiene, one-handed, and one-touch removal of cockroaches.
