Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] In an insect trap with a bottomed mesh bag in the shape of a streamer,
Do not let trapped insects escape easily. [Structure] A hairpin-shaped elastic metal thin wire is pinched in parallel in the longitudinal middle of a wind-blown bottomed mesh bag so that the mesh bag can be opened and closed.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a portable insect trap that can be carried.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In the case of a streamer-like cylindrical mesh bag for manually catching flying insects, in order to occlude the caught insects in the mesh bag, the ring above the mesh bag should be rotated 90 degrees or more vertically. However, it took a lot of time to maintain the trapping by pinching the mesh bag with fingers.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned troublesome task and to automatically close a trapped insect in a mesh bag.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The open end of a bottomed cylindrical mesh bag is sewn into a circular ring having a handle to form a streamer shape, and the mesh bag is sandwiched and closed in parallel to the outside of the middle abdomen in the longitudinal direction of the mesh bag. A thin elastic metal wire like a hairpin was attached.

The method of fixing the elastic metal thin wires to the mesh bag may be performed only on both ends of the hairpin-shaped elastic metal thin wires as long as they do not move in the longitudinal direction of the mesh bag.

[0006]

[Action]

 If you grasp the ring handle with your hand and move it to aim at the flying insects, the elastic metal thin wire like a hairpin that pinched and closed the middle abdomen of the mesh bag is the shaken mesh bag. The insects, which have been expanded and trapped under the influence of the internal air pressure of, are retained at the bottom of the mesh bag.

When the swinging motion is stopped, the air pressure in the mesh bag disappears, the elastic thin metal wire elastically returns to the original hairpin shape, and the mesh bag is sandwiched and closed while trapping insects. .

When taking out the captured insects, the mesh bag is turned upside down. When collecting insects again, the mesh bag does not need to be turned upside down, and can be used as it is inside out, and inside out and inside out can be used alternately.

【Example】

 FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the present invention. A bottomed cylindrical mesh bag (3) is attached to a circular ring (6) with a handle (7) by stitching the opening. A parallel hairpin-shaped elastic metal thin wire (1) is attached (4) to the middle portion of the mesh bag (3) in the longitudinal direction so as to sandwich and close the mesh bag. Therefore, the mesh bag (3) below the elastic metal thin wire (1) is closed in the shape of a palm.

The material of the elastic thin metal wire (1) is, for example, a piano wire and has a thickness of, for example, 0.2 mm. When a person holds the handle (7) and swings the mesh bag (3) around, the mesh The thickness is not limited to 0.2 mm as long as the thickness is such that the bag can be slightly opened depending on the internal pressure of the bag.

FIG. 2 is a partially cut front view taken along the arrow Y of FIG. 1, showing the expanded state (1 ′) of the elastic metal thin wire and the same when the mesh bag (3) is swung around. A state in which the lower part of the mesh bag (3) is expanded is shown by a chain double-dashed line.

[0012]

[Effect of the invention]

 When catching flying insects by swinging the mesh bag, the present invention is provided with a hairpin-like elastic metal thin wire sandwiched between the longitudinal middle of the mesh bag so as to block the insects automatically. Since the insects are enclosed in the mesh bag, it has the advantage that it can be used both inside out and inside out of the mesh bag, in addition to the effect that no effort is required to prevent the escape of insects.

Claims (1)

[Utility model registration claims] Claims: 1. A fine mesh bag formed by stitching a bottomed cylindrical opening peripheral edge of a bottom into a streamer shape on a ring having a handle, and two hairpin-shaped outside of the bottomed cylindrical longitudinal middle abdomen. The insect trap is characterized in that the elastic metal thin wires are surrounded by the parallel elastic metal wires at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the bottomed cylindrical shape, sandwiched and closed, and the elastic metal wires are fixed so as not to move in the longitudinal direction of the mesh bag.
