By the way, many cockroach traps on the market have an adhesive on the bottom surface inside the container as in Patent Document 1, but as in Patent Documents 2 to 4, the space in the container where cockroaches are introduced There is also a structure in which an adhesive is provided on the part corresponding to the upper wall surface (ceiling surface) of the cockroach. It is thought that the contact area with the adhesive becomes wider than when it is attached, and it becomes possible to reduce the number of cockroaches that escape after being captured. In addition, the legs of cockroaches may be torn off while adhering to the adhesive, and from this point, it can be said that attaching the wings or back to the adhesive is advantageous. Therefore, there are cases where it is desired to adopt a structure in which an adhesive is provided on the upper wall surface inside the container.

Here, focusing on the general usage pattern of cockroach traps, most of them are installed on the floor, and in some cases, they are installed in narrow places such as between furniture. Therefore, there is a demand for the cockroach trap to minimize the area required for installation, that is, the projected area in plan view.

However, in Patent Document 2, the cockroach trap is formed to be long in the horizontal direction, and a plurality of cockroach introduction ports are formed so as to be aligned in the horizontal direction, so there is a possibility that the ability to trap cockroaches can be ensured. However, there is a problem that the area required for installation is enlarged.

In addition, in Patent Document 3, adhesives are provided on one side and the other side of the upper plate in the longitudinal direction, respectively, so there is a possibility that the ability to capture cockroaches can be ensured, but the area required for installation is increased. There is a problem of storage. It is believed that Patent Document 4 also has a similar problem.

The above problems are not limited to cockroaches, but can also occur with other creeping pests.

The present invention has been made in view of such a point, and its object is to reduce the area required for installation while sufficiently obtaining the ability to trap creeping pests.

In order to achieve the above object, a first invention provides a creeping insect trap for trapping creeping insects introduced into the container, which is provided with a container for introducing creeping insects, wherein the container contains the creeping insects in the container. A first introduction port and a second introduction port are formed for introduction into the interior, and the first introduction space and the second introduction space communicate with the first introduction port to introduce the crawling pest in the interior of the container. a dividing part for dividing and forming a second introduction space communicating with the mouth to introduce the crawling pest so that the first introduction space is positioned below the second introduction space inside the container; A first adhesive arranged on the inner surface of the upper wall forming the first introduction space and a second adhesive arranged on the inner surface of the upper wall forming the second introduction space are provided, and the container a left side wall portion extending vertically from a bottom wall portion forming the first introduction space to an upper wall portion forming the second introduction space and connecting the bottom wall portion and the upper wall portion; It is characterized by having a right side wall.

Creeping insect pests to be captured are not limited to cockroaches, and all insect pests that walk on the floor or the like can be targeted. Even if the pest does not have wings, it does not matter whether it has wings or not, because its back adheres to the adhesive, making it more difficult for it to escape.

A second invention is characterized in that the bottom wall portion forming the first introduction space and the bottom wall portion forming the second introduction space have different angles with respect to a horizontal plane.

That is, it is conceivable that the angle of the bottom wall that is easy to introduce varies depending on the individual creeping pest. In this case, the bottom wall that forms the first introduction space and the bottom wall that forms the second introduction space. By using different angles, the capture ability can be expected to be further improved.

In a third aspect of the invention, the bottom wall portion forming the first introduction space extends substantially parallel to the installation surface on which the crawling insect trap is installed, and the bottom wall portion forming the second introduction space extends substantially parallel to the installation surface on which the crawling insect trap is installed. It is characterized by being inclined with respect to the installation surface.

According to this configuration, the bottom wall portion of the first introduction space is arranged along the installation surface, and the bottom wall portion of the second introduction space is arranged above it.

A fourth invention is characterized in that the bottom wall portion forming the second introduction space is the partition portion.

According to this configuration, the bottom wall portion and the partition portion that form the second introduction space can be configured by a common member, so that the container can be made compact.

A fifth aspect of the invention is characterized in that the upper wall portion forming the first introduction space is the partition portion.

According to this configuration, the upper wall portion and the partition portion that form the first introduction space can be configured by a common member, so that the container can be made compact.

A sixth aspect of the invention is characterized in that the vertical dimension of the first introduction space is set so as to become shorter with distance from the first introduction port.

According to this configuration, when the creeping pest is introduced into the first introduction space from the first inlet and advances to the back, the distance between the first adhesive and the creeping pest becomes shorter, and the creeping pest is introduced into the first adhesive. can be securely adhered to the

A seventh aspect of the invention is characterized in that the vertical dimension of the second introduction space is set so as to decrease with distance from the second introduction port.

However, this is only for the convenience of explanation, and does not limit the actual usage posture, transportation posture, or manufacturing posture. For example, the creeping insect trap 1 is installed so that the front side of the creeping insect trap 1 is positioned to the right, left, or rear of the user, or is installed so that the front side of the creeping insect trap 1 is positioned above or below. The creeping vermin trap 1 can also be installed in the .

In addition, the crawling insect trap 1 can be used by placing it on the floor of a general home, office, various factories, or the like, and can also be used by placing it directly on the ground. It can also be installed in places where crawling pests are likely to walk, such as gaps between furniture and walls or between electrical appliances and walls. It can also be installed along a wall or placed on top of furniture or electrical appliances.

(Configuration of container 1A)
The container 1A is composed of a single plate member 100 (shown in FIG. 12) made of thick paper such as cardboard. The board 100 may be made of cardboard or a member other than a cardboard with a printed layer, for example, a resin material. It is preferable to use a shape-retaining member that can maintain its shape.

As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 8, etc., the container 1A includes a bottom wall portion 10, a top wall portion 11, a right side wall portion 12, a left side wall portion 13, a rear end wall portion 14, and a partition. A wall portion (partition portion) 15 is provided. Inside the container 1A, a first introduction space R1 and a second introduction space R2 for introducing creeping pests are defined by a partition wall portion 15. As shown in FIG. The second introduction space R2 is located above the first introduction space R1 and has a two-story structure. The volume of the second introduction space R2 can be made larger than the volume of the first introduction space R1. The volume of the second introduction space R2 and the volume of the first introduction space R1 may be the same, or the volume of the second introduction space R2 may be smaller than the volume of the first introduction space R1.

The bottom wall portion 10 of the container 1A serves as a bottom wall portion that forms the first introduction space R1 positioned on the lower side, and the upper wall portion 11 of the container 1A forms the second introduction space R2 positioned on the upper side. is the upper wall that forms the The front end portion of the top wall portion 11 of the container 1A is located behind the front end portion of the bottom wall portion 10 of the container 1A. The rear end portion of the top wall portion 11 of the container 1A is located forward of the rear end portion of the bottom wall portion 10 of the container 1A. Therefore, the longitudinal dimension of the upper wall portion 11 of the container 1A is shorter than the longitudinal dimension of the bottom wall portion 10 of the container 1A.

The right side wall portion 12 of the container 1A is a right side wall portion that forms the first introduction space R1 and the second introduction space R2. A left side wall portion 13 of the container 1A is a left side wall portion that forms a first introduction space R1 and a second introduction space R2. A rear end wall portion 14 of the container 1A serves as a rear wall portion forming the first introduction space R1. The partition wall portion 15 extends in the horizontal direction from the inner surface of the right side wall portion 12 to the inner surface of the left side wall portion 13 inside the container 1A, and extends from the front end portion to the vicinity of the rear end portion of the container 1A. The front end of the partition wall 15 is connected to the front end of the bottom wall 10 , while the rear end of the partition wall 15 is located near the rear end of the upper wall 11 . The partition wall portion 15 as a whole extends toward the front side of the container 1A with a downward inclination.

A space below the lower surface of the partition wall portion 15 is defined as a first introduction space R1, and a space above the upper surface of the partition wall portion 15 is defined as a second introduction space R2. Therefore, the bottom wall portion forming the second introduction space R2 is the partition wall portion 15, and the upper wall portion forming the first introduction space R1 is the partition wall portion 15, forming the first introduction space R1. The partition wall portion 15 is common to the upper wall portion and the bottom wall portion forming the second introduction space R2.

The bottom wall portion 10 forming the first introduction space R1 extends substantially parallel to the installation surface G (shown in phantom lines only in FIG. 8), that is, along the installation surface G. As shown in FIG. The installation surface G is, for example, a floor surface or the like, and may be a flat surface as shown in FIG. 8 or an uneven surface. The partition wall portion 15, which is the bottom wall portion forming the second introduction space R2, is inclined downward toward the front side as described above, so that it is inclined with respect to the installation surface G. As shown in FIG. That is, the bottom wall portion 10 forming the first introduction space R1 and the bottom wall portion (partition wall portion 15) forming the second introduction space R2 have different angles with respect to the horizontal plane (for example, the installation plane G). .

Further, the upper wall portion 11 forming the second introduction space R2 can be formed so as to be inclined downward toward the rear side, but it may be formed substantially parallel to the installation surface G, or may be formed substantially parallel to the installation surface G, or may It may be formed so as to slope downward toward the edge.

The rear end wall portion 14 of the container 1A is inclined such that the upper end portion is located in front of the lower end portion. A lower end portion of the rear end wall portion 14 continues to a rear end portion of the bottom wall portion 10 . Further, the upper end portion of the rear end wall portion 14 continues to the rear end portion of the upper wall portion 11 . Therefore, the bottom wall portion 10 and the top wall portion 11 are connected by the rear end wall portion 14 . The inclination angle of the rear end wall portion 14 is set steeper than the inclination angle of the upper wall portion 11 .

A rear end wall portion 14 of the container 1A is formed with a rear introduction port (first introduction port) 14a for introducing creeping pests into the interior of the container 1A. The rear introduction port 14a has a shape elongated in the left-right direction of the container 1A. is located in the middle portion of the rear end wall portion 14 in the vertical direction. In addition, the lateral dimension of the rear inlet 14a is set to be shorter than the lateral dimension of the container 1A, and the right edge of the rear inlet 14a corresponds to the right edge of the rear end wall portion 14. The left edge of the rear inlet 14a is separated from the left edge of the rear end wall 14 to the right. In this way, the lateral dimension of the rear inlet port 14a is made shorter than the lateral dimension of the rear end wall portion 14, and regions in which no openings are formed are provided on both left and right sides of the rear end wall portion 14. , the bottom wall 10 and the top wall 11 can be connected by the rear end wall 14 . When it is not necessary to connect the bottom wall portion 10 and the top wall portion 11 by the rear end wall portion 14, that is, when the container 1A is configured by combining a plurality of plate members, the rear inlet port 14a may be arranged in the left-right direction. The dimension can be the same as the lateral dimension of the rear end wall portion 14 . Also, although not shown, the rear end wall portion 14 may be formed with a plurality of rear introduction ports. In this case, the plurality of rear introduction ports can be arranged vertically or horizontally on the rear end wall portion 14 .

The rear introduction port 14a can have a rectangular shape elongated in the left and right directions as shown in FIG. 5 and the like, but the shape of the rear introduction port 14a is not particularly limited. For example, the left and right edges of the rear introduction port 14a can be curved in an arc shape to form the oval rear introduction port 14a. If both the left and right edges of the rear inlet 14a are curved, breakage and folding of the plate member 100 starting from the vicinity of the left and right edges of the rear inlet 14a can be suppressed.

A front introduction port (second introduction port) 16 for introducing crawling pests into the interior of the container 1A is formed in the entire front wall portion of the container 1A. Since the front end portion of the upper wall portion 11 of the container 1A is positioned behind the front end portion of the bottom wall portion 10, the front side introduction port 16 opens obliquely upward. The upper edge portion of the front introduction port 16 is located at the front end portion of the upper wall portion 11 of the container 1A and extends linearly in the left-right direction. The lower edge of the front introduction port 16 is positioned at the front end of the bottom wall 10 of the container 1A and extends linearly in the left-right direction. The right edge and left edge of the front introduction port 16 are located at the front edge of the right side wall 12 and the front edge of the left side wall 13, respectively, and extend linearly in the vertical direction. Therefore, when the container 1A is viewed from the front, the front inlet 16 has a rectangular shape elongated in the left-right direction. The upper edge of the front inlet 16 is positioned higher than the upper edge of the rear inlet 14a.

The shape of the front introduction port 16 is not limited to a rectangle, and may be oval, trapezoid, or the like. Further, in this embodiment, the front side introduction port 16 is formed in the entire front wall portion of the container 1A. A mouth 16 may be formed. Although not shown, a plurality of front introduction ports may be formed in the front wall portion. In this case, the plurality of front introduction ports can be arranged vertically or horizontally on the front wall.

The rear introduction port 14a communicates with the rear end portion of the first introduction space R1. The side of the first introduction space R1 to which crawling pests are introduced is the rear side of the container 1A. The front side of the first introduction space R1 is the rear side of the container 1A, and the back side of the first introduction space R1 is the front side of the container 1A. The bottom wall portion 10 forming the first introduction space R1 extends along the installation surface G, while the upper wall portion (partition wall portion 15) forming the first introduction space R1 is inclined downward toward the front side. A vertical dimension H1 (shown in FIG. 8) of one introduction space R1 is set to decrease with increasing distance from the rear introduction port 14a. That is, the cross-section of the first introduction space R1 has a shape close to a triangle having the vertex on the front side of the container 1A.

On the other hand, the front introduction port 16 communicates with the front end portion of the second introduction space R2. The side of the second introduction space R2 to which creeping pests are introduced is the front side of the container 1A, which is opposite to the side of the first introduction space R1 to which creeping pests are introduced. The front side of the second introduction space R2 is the front side of the container 1A, and the back side of the second introduction space R2 is the rear side of the container 1A. The bottom wall portion (partition wall portion 15) forming the second introduction space R2 is inclined downward toward the front side, while the upper wall portion 11 forming the second introduction space R2 is inclined downward toward the rear side. Therefore, the vertical dimension H2 (shown in FIG. 8) of the second introduction space R2 is set so as to become shorter as the distance from the front introduction port 16 increases. That is, the cross-section of the second introduction space R2 has a shape close to a triangle having the vertex on the rear side of the container 1A.

As shown in FIG. 8, the bottom wall portion 10 forming the first introduction space R1 extends in the direction along the installation surface G, and the partition wall portion 15 slopes down toward the front side to form the second introduction space R2. Since the upper wall portion 11 is inclined downward toward the rear side, the bottom wall portion 10, the partition wall portion 15 and the upper wall portion 11 form a Z shape when viewed in cross section. In this manner, the first and second introduction spaces R1 and R2 having triangular cross-sections are alternately stacked one on top of the other to form a Z-shaped cross-section, so that the first and second introduction spaces R1 and R2 are space efficiently arranged. can do. Thereby, 1 A of containers can be comprised compactly.

A return portion 17 is provided at the front end portion of the container 1A. The return portion 17 is connected to the front end portion of the upper wall portion 11 and is connected to an upper return portion 17 a extending obliquely downward toward the rear side from the upper edge portion of the front introduction port 16 and the front end portion of the right wall portion 12 . , a right return portion 17b extending rearward from the right edge of the front introduction port 16, and a left return portion 17b connected to the front end portion of the left wall portion 13 and extending rearward from the left edge of the front introduction port 16. 17c. Although the return part 17 is not essential, it can prevent the leg from touching the adhesive 3 when, for example, a crawling pest that has climbed onto the container 1A tries to enter the front introduction port 16 from above. Therefore, the effect of suppressing caution can be expected. In addition, the effect of suppressing foreign matter from entering the second introduction space R2 and the effect of suppressing the user's finger from accidentally touching the adhesive 3 can be expected. Also, although not shown, instead of the return portion 17 or together with the return portion 17, a canopy portion may be provided at the front end portion of the container 1A.

The partition wall portion 15 is provided with a notch portion 15a for forming a communicating portion that communicates the first introduction space R1 and the second introduction space R2. The cutout portion 15a is formed by cutting out the middle portion in the left-right direction of the rear portion of the partition wall portion 15. The formation of the cutout portion 15a cuts out the front upper portion of the first introduction space R1 and the second introduction space. The rear side lower portion of R2 communicates with the inside of the notch portion 15a. Since the partition wall portion 15 is the upper wall portion that forms the first introduction space R1, the communication portion is provided in the upper wall portion that forms the first introduction space R1. Since it is the bottom wall portion that forms the second introduction space R2, the communication portion is also provided in the bottom wall portion that forms the second introduction space R2. Although not shown, a plurality of notches may be provided in the partition wall portion 15 . The notch portion may be provided on the right edge or left edge of the partition wall portion 15 .

The first adhesive 2 is arranged on the lower surface (the inner surface of the first introduction space R1) of the upper wall portion (the partition wall portion 15) that forms the first introduction space R1. The second adhesive 3 is arranged on the lower surface of the upper wall portion 11 forming the second introduction space R2 (the inner surface of the second introduction space R2). The vertical dimension H1 of the first introduction space R1 and the vertical dimension H2 of the second introduction space R2 are such that when a crawling insect is introduced into each of the spaces R1 and R2, the back of the crawling insect is pushed by the first adhesive. 2 and the second pressure-sensitive adhesive 3. For example, H1 and H2 in the front-back direction central portions of the first introduction space R1 and the second introduction space R2 can be set to about 5 mm to 20 mm. can. H1 and H2 can be sized according to the type of target creeping pest.

As described above, the first and second introduction spaces R1 and R2 are formed so as to become narrower in the vertical direction as they go deeper. , 3 are provided. With this configuration, crawling pests do not notice the presence of the adhesive in the vicinity of the rear introduction port 14a or the front introduction port 16, and are not alert to the presence of the adhesive inside the first or second introduction space R1, R2. invade into. Then, if it proceeds to the far side of the first or second introduction space R1 or R2 without vigilance, the blades or the back will adhere to the adhesive and will be captured, making it impossible to escape.

The first adhesive 2 and the second adhesive 3 are applied to the plate material 100 . That is, as shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, in the unfolded state of the plate member 100, the lower surface of the upper wall portion (partition wall portion) forming the first introduction space R1 and the upper wall portion forming the second introduction space R2 11 are located on the same plane of the plate member 100 . Then, the first adhesive 2 and the second adhesive 3 (indicated by diagonal lines in FIGS. 12 and 13) are respectively applied to the lower surface of the partition wall portion 15 and the lower surface of the upper wall portion 11 forming the second introduction space R2. is provided.

By providing the first adhesive 2 and the second adhesive 3 on the same surface of the plate material 100, for example, when applying the adhesive using a coating machine (not shown), the first adhesive 2 and the second adhesive 3 can be applied in one step. Both applications of the second adhesive 3 can be completed. Note that the first adhesive 2 and the second adhesive 3 may be provided on different surfaces of the plate member 100 .

Further, when the first adhesive 2 is provided on the partition wall 15, the peripheral edge of the first adhesive 2 is separated from the front edge, the rear edge, and the left and right edges of the partition wall 15. A coverage area is set. In addition, when the second adhesive 3 is provided on the upper wall portion 11, the peripheral edge portion of the second adhesive 3 is separated from the front edge portion, the rear edge portion, and the left and right edges of the upper wall portion 11. A coverage area is set. As a result, as shown in FIG. 8 and the like, when the plate material 100 is folded to form the container 1A, the first adhesive 2 does not stick to the portions other than the partition wall portion 15, and the second adhesive 3 does not adhere to the top. It does not adhere to parts other than the wall part 11.例文帳に追加

In addition, since the front edge, rear edge, and right and left edges of the partition wall 15 are narrow, even if the first adhesive 2 is present, these areas hardly contribute to capturing. By providing the first adhesive 2 only in the central area of the partition wall portion 15 without providing the first adhesive 2 in such an area, the first adhesive 2 can be applied without substantially lowering the capturing ability. can reduce the amount of The first adhesive 2 may not be present only on one edge of the front edge, the rear edge, the left and right edges of the partition wall 15, or a plurality of arbitrary edges. The first adhesive 2 can also be provided only on part of the partition wall portion 15 .

That is, in conventional traps in which the legs of crawling pests are attached to the adhesive on the floor, it is preferable that the entire floor is coated with the adhesive from the viewpoint of increasing the trapping area. In contrast, in the present embodiment, the wings or backs of creeping pests are attached to the adhesive on the ceiling surface to capture them. It is difficult to adhere to the adhesive near the edge and hardly contributes to capture. Therefore, as described above, the useless adhesive can be reduced by not applying the adhesive to the vicinity of the edge of the ceiling surface (partition wall portion 15).

Similarly, the front edge, the rear edge, and the left and right edges of the upper wall 11 are also regions that hardly contribute to capturing, and by providing the second adhesive 3 only in the region near the center of the upper wall 11 , it is possible to reduce the amount of the second adhesive 3 to be used without deteriorating the trapping ability.
