And an inviting unit 8 to be operated. The opening 2 on the indoor side of the suction removing section 7 is formed in a bell mouth shape in which insects are difficult to stop, and the opening 3 on the outdoor side has an impeller 6
An opening / closing shutter 9 that is opened and moved by wind pressure caused by the rotation of the shutter is provided.

The air flow formed by the motor 5 and the impeller 6 of the suction removing section 7 has a flow rate at which insects can be sucked out and a flow rate at which the room can be ventilated. The attracting unit 8 is incorporated at a position immediately above the opening 2 on the indoor side of the suction removing unit 7 and has a 200-nm attracting property to insects on the indoor side.
Straight attractor lamp 10 as a luminous body that emits light having a wavelength of 500 nm from the surface thereof, and a detachable glass that covers the outside of the attractor lamp 10 and has a smoothly processed surface that transmits light having a wavelength of attraction. Or plastic light-transmitting cover 11
It is composed of The power supply to the motor 5 and the moth lamp 10 can be performed individually or simultaneously.

The insect eliminator having the above-described structure functions similarly to a well-known wall-mounted type ventilation fan by fitting it into an opening provided in the wall 1 and communicating between the inside and outside of the room. You can put it in a state. When insects enter the room by being attracted by the light of the indoor illuminator or the like, power is supplied to both the motor 5 and the moth lamp 10 to form an exhaust flow from the room to the outside in the wind tunnel 4. At the same time, light having a wavelength capable of attracting insects is emitted from the attracting portion 8 to the indoor side. The opening / closing shutter 9 opens with the formation of the exhaust flow, and the exhaust flow is exhausted from the outdoor portion 3 of the wind tunnel 4 to the outside. Since the light emitted from the attraction unit 8 has higher visibility to the insects than the light of the indoor lighting, the insects that enter the room and are likely to gather at the ceiling side are attracted to the attraction unit 8 at the ceiling side.
Gather toward the translucent cover 11.

The translucent cover 11 has a smooth surface and is formed following the bell mouth shape of the opening 2, so that insects are unlikely to stay in this portion, and the impeller 6
The insects that have gathered are sucked into the wind tunnel 4 and are removed to the outside together with the exhaust air flow due to the suction force due to the rotation of. When used for ventilation, only the power supply to the motor 5 needs to be performed, and the same function as a normal ventilation fan is performed.

However, when only the attracting unit 8 is in the operating state, the insects are collected in the attracting unit 8, and then the motor is removed. Insects fed to the power supply 5 can be collectively removed to the outside of the room. The former is an insect-eliminating operation for a store, and the latter is an insect-eliminating operation for a general living room.

As described above, in the insect eliminator according to the first embodiment, since the moth lamp 10 is not exposed to the outside, it is difficult to clean the moth lamp 10 because the body fluids of the insects adhere to the moth lamp 10 and are scorched by the heat. The function can be maintained by a simple operation such as cleaning of the translucent cover 11 without becoming in a state. Since the surface of the light-transmitting cover 11 itself is smoothly finished and forms a part of a bell-mouth shape, insects are difficult to stop, and attached dirt is easily removed. Further, even if the operation is continued, the pressure loss does not increase, and the insect elimination function does not decrease over a long period of time.
