The bent plate constituting the third holding frame 5 has one end attached to the back side of the lower end of the back frame 23 and the other end attached to the front side of the lower end of the back frame 23 (the framed frame 2 is attached). If it is, it is located on the front side of the frame member 2b of the framed frame 2).

  As described above, the holding frame is provided on the front side of the frame portion 20 and is in contact with the net member 2a of the net frame 2 so that the net frame 2 can be slid along the open surface of the accommodation space. The frame member 2b is slidably held.

  The first connection cable 30 is for electrically connecting the plurality of insect traps 1 to each other, and is electrically connected to one end side of the light source unit 10. The first connection cable 30 is drawn out of the frame part 20 from the first side face frame 21 of the frame part 20, and has a first connector 31 on the distal end side.

  The first connector 31 is configured to be electrically connectable to a second connector 41 of a second connection cable 40 described later. As shown in FIG. 3, the first connector 31 includes a first cylindrical wall portion 31a, a columnar portion 31c provided inside the first cylindrical wall portion 31a via an annular space portion 31b, and a columnar portion 31c. And a pair of insertion openings 31d. A male screw is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the first cylindrical wall portion 31a. A power cord connector, which will be described later, has the same shape as the first connector 31.

  The first connector 31 may be provided with a waterproof cap. On the inner peripheral surface of the cap, a female screw that is screwed into the male screw of the first cylindrical wall portion 31a is formed. The cap needs to be removed when the connector is connected.

  The second connection cable 40 is for connecting a power cord or electrically connecting the first connection cable 30 of another insect trap 1 and is electrically connected to the other end of the light source unit 10. ing. The second connection cable 40 is drawn out of the frame unit 20 from the second side surface frame 22 of the frame unit 20. The 2nd connection cable 40 has the 2nd connector 41 at the front end side, and has the protection member 42 comprised so that sliding was possible along a cable.

  The second connector 41 is configured to be electrically connectable to the first connector 31 and is also configured to be electrically connectable to the connector of the power cord. As shown in FIG. 4, the second connector 41 includes a flange portion 41a, a second cylindrical wall portion 41b provided on the flange portion 41a, and a pair of pins 41c provided on the inner side of the second cylindrical wall portion 41b. Have The second cylindrical wall portion 41b is configured to be insertable into the annular space portion 31b of the first connector 31, and the pin 41c can be inserted into the insertion port 31d of the first connector 31 and the insertion port of the connector of the power cord. It is configured.

  An annular packing (not shown) is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the second cylindrical wall portion 41b. When the connector is connected, the packing is sandwiched between the front end surface of the first cylindrical wall portion 31a of the first connector 31 and the flange portion 41a, or between the front end surface of the first cylindrical wall portion of the connector of the power cord and the flange portion 41a. . The packing exhibits a waterproof and dustproof function.

  The protection member 42 has a structure surrounding the connection portion of the second connector 41, and exhibits a waterproof and dustproof function for the connection portion. For example, when a power cord is connected to the second connection cable 40, the protection member 42 prevents water and dust from entering the connecting portion between the second connector 41 and the connector of the power cord. Similarly, when the second connection cable 40 and the first connection cable 30 of another insect trap 1 are connected, the protection member 42 is configured to prevent water and dust from flowing into the connection portion between the second connector 41 and the first connector 31. Prevent entry. On the inner peripheral surface of the protection member 42, a female screw is formed that is screwed into the male screw of the first cylindrical wall portion of the connector of the power cord and the male screw of the first cylindrical wall portion 31 a of the first connector 31. Yes.

  The power cord is for supplying power to the light source unit 10 from a commercial outlet. The power cord has a connector configured to be electrically connectable to the second connector 41 on one end side and a power plug configured to be plugged into a commercial outlet on the other end side. When the power plug is inserted into a commercial outlet while the power cord is connected to the second connection cable 40, power is supplied to the light source unit 10 from the commercial outlet via the power cord and the second connection cable 40.

  In the present embodiment, since the light source unit 10 corresponds to AC 85 to 265 [V], a power cord corresponding to the AC voltage range can be used. For example, a power cord for AC 100 [V] may be used in some cases, and a power cord for AC 200 [V] may be used in other times. That is, since the shape of the power plug can be changed according to the standard of the outlet in the country of use (a power cord having a power plug connectable to the outlet) can be selected, the insect trap 1 according to the present embodiment is The global specification can be used not only in Japan but also overseas.

  Eventually, the insect trap 1 according to the present embodiment can select and attract only specific insects by using the netted frame 2 having a mesh size corresponding to the size of the insect to be captured. In addition, the holding frames (the first holding frame 3, the second holding frame 4, and the third holding frame 5) hold the net-attached frame 2 in a detachable manner and are not in contact with the net member 2a of the net-added frame 2. The member 2b can be held. Therefore, according to the insect trap 1 according to this embodiment, the frame 2 with a net can be easily replaced, and the net member 2a can be prevented from being damaged during the replacement.

  Naturally, the insect trap 1 according to the present embodiment can be used in a state where the frame 2 with a net is removed (see FIG. 2).

  Since the insect trap 1 according to the present embodiment uses the LED light source 11, it can achieve a longer life and lower power consumption than the case where a fluorescent lamp is used.

  As mentioned above, although preferable embodiment of the insect trap which concerns on this invention was described, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment.

  The insect trap according to the present invention has a straight tubular light source part for attracting insects and a storage space whose front side is open, and a frame part for holding the light source part and the insect trapping adhesive sheet in the storage space And a holding frame for detachably holding the netted frame, the configuration can be changed as appropriate.

  If the frame with a net | network of this invention has the net | network member which has a net | network dimension, and the frame member provided in the periphery of the net | network member, a structure can be changed suitably. As long as the holding frame of the present invention holds the frame member without contacting the mesh member of the meshed frame, the configuration can be changed as appropriate. For example, the mesh size of the mesh member and / or the shape of the frame member can be changed as appropriate.

  The insect trap according to the present invention may be, for example, a vertical trapper configured with a stand (configured to stand vertically). Further, the protection grade IP67 does not necessarily have to be satisfied.
