The present invention relates to a cockroach trap. More specifically, the present invention relates to a cockroach catcher that can reduce discomfort caused by cockroaches after being captured and can quickly check the uncoated portion of the adhesive portion.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, various types of sticky cockroach traps have been known, and as a general cockroach trap, a hollow cockroach trap body is provided at the bottom upper surface. In some cases, an adhesive portion is formed by applying an adhesive on the entire surface or applying a plurality of stripes in parallel.

However, it is unpleasant to see the cockroaches captured by the adhesive portion when checking the capturing status of the cockroaches in the cockroach catcher in use. The discomfort, especially for women, makes it difficult to move used traps and discard used traps.

Further, when the adhesive is applied to the entire upper surface of the bottom of the trap body or when a plurality of stripes are applied in parallel, there is a problem that the uncoated portion is difficult to recognize. In particular, since a transparent or translucent pressure-sensitive adhesive is generally used as a conventionally used pressure-sensitive adhesive, it is more difficult to check uncoated portions.

The present invention has been made in order to solve such a problem, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a cockroach catcher which can reduce the discomfort caused by cockroaches after capturing and can quickly check the uncoated portion of the adhesive portion. Aim.

A cockroach catcher according to the present invention comprises a catcher body having at least a bottom portion, and has a sticky portion on an upper surface of the bottom portion.
The adhesive portion is characterized in that a pattern is provided on the upper surface of the bottom of the trap body, and a transparent or translucent adhesive layer is formed on the upper surface.

[0007] Preferably, the pattern comprises a plurality of lines.

It is preferable that the pattern is a pattern having shades of color.

[0009] It is preferable that the pattern has a loop-shaped portion along the vicinity of the outer peripheral edge of a region where the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is applied, on the bottom upper surface of the trap body.

[0010] It is preferable that the pattern has, on the upper surface of the bottom portion of the trap body, portions that indicate four corners of a region where the adhesive layer is applied.

[0011] It is preferable that the pattern is a pattern having a shadow so that the pattern looks three-dimensional.

In the adhesive portion, a sheet-like member is provided on the upper surface of the bottom of the trap body, a pattern is provided on the sheet-like member, and a transparent or translucent adhesive is provided on the upper surface of the sheet-like member. Preferably, a layer is formed.

According to the cockroach trap of the present invention, since the pattern is provided on the upper surface of the bottom of the trap body in the adhesive portion, the cockroach captured by the adhesive portion is formed by the pattern.
Since it becomes less noticeable, discomfort is reduced.

In addition, since the transparent or translucent pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed on the upper surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive portion, the lens function of the pressure-sensitive adhesive, that is, the refractive index between the portion having the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the uncoated portion is obtained. Depending on the difference, the unpainted portion can be checked quickly.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, a cockroach catcher of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a partially cutaway perspective view showing one embodiment of the cockroach trap of the present invention,
FIG. 2 is a plan view showing the cockroach trap of FIG. 1 in a developed state, FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the cockroach trap of FIG.
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional explanatory view of a cockroach trap showing another embodiment of the cockroach trap of the present invention.

The cockroach catcher shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 has a pattern 9 provided on substantially the entire upper surface of the bottom portion 3 of a conventional, freely assemblable catcher body 1 which has been conventionally employed. Opening 4 open front and rear in container body 1
a, 4b, and side portions 5a, 5 on both sides of the trap body 1
The cockroaches can enter the inside of the catcher body 1 through the openings 6a and 6b formed in the body b.

The openings 4a, 4b and the openings 6a,
It is preferable to form the 6b so that the width in the up-down direction becomes narrow, because the cockroaches often enter the trap body 1 due to the habits of the cockroaches (habits of wanting to enter a narrow place). In particular, if the width in the vertical direction is set to about 1 to 3 mm, more cockroaches can be caught.

The catcher main body 1 is a origami process for a sheet made of paper, plastics, rubber, metal, wood, or the like, alone or in combination (a dashed-dotted line in FIG. 2 and a broken line in a mountain). Bend with two top panels 7
a and 7b are connected to each other to form a hollow body.

The size of the catcher main body 1 is not particularly limited in the present invention, but, for example, is reduced to about 1/2 in length, width and height as compared with a conventional catcher. It is preferable to reduce the size because the size can be reduced.

In the present embodiment, the trap body having a cylindrical shape having a flat trapezoidal cross section has been described as an example. However, the shape of the trap body 1 is not particularly limited in the present invention. Alternatively, an inverted trapezoidal shape, a rectangular shape, a triangular shape, a polygonal shape, a semicircular shape, a square shape, or a tubular or box-shaped material can be adopted.

The adhesive portion 2 shown in FIG.
The pattern 9 is formed on the upper surface of the bottom portion 3 by printing or the like,
Further, an adhesive substance is applied to the entire upper surface of the bottom 3 to form an adhesive layer 10. The adhesive portion 2 is protected by a release paper (not shown) during storage and transport, and the adhesive portion 2 is exposed by peeling the release paper immediately before use, so that the adhesive portion 2 is ready for use.

As shown in FIG. 4, instead of directly providing the pattern 9 and the adhesive layer 10 on the upper surface of the bottom of the trap body 1, the pattern 9 is provided on the upper surface of a separate sheet-like member, for example, the mount 15. And the adhesive layer 1 on the upper surface of the backing paper 15.
If the base material 15 is fixed to the upper surface of the bottom of the catcher body 1 after that, the manufacturing becomes easier.

The adhesive applied to the bottom 3 is transparent or translucent, and is not limited in the present invention as long as it is non-drying and sticky at room temperature and non-flowable at room temperature. Not something. For example, natural rubber, synthetic rubber, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, polyisobutylene, polybutene, atactic polypropylene and other liquid polymers, a tackifying resin such as petroleum resin alone or in the presence of a suitable solvent or without solvent It can be applied by heating, or by mixing in the form of a latex or emulsion. In particular, styrene-butadiene block polymer and / or ethylene-
Combinations of vinyl acetate copolymers and tackifier resins and plasticizers, and combinations of polyisobutylene with liquid polybutene and atactic polypropylene can be mixed by heating in a solvent-free system and can be applied as they are. It is also preferable from the viewpoint. The viscosity of the adhesive applied to the bottom 3 by these materials is determined by JI
Any adhesive substance that is measured by a measurement method according to SK-6833 (1980) and is between 2,500 and 3,300 P at 130 ° C. may be used.

The pattern 9 shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 has two functions, namely, to make the cockroach captured by the adhesive part 2 inconspicuous, and to make the unpainted part easily visible by the lens function of the adhesive. Various patterns can be adopted if this can be achieved.

For example, the pattern 9 shown in FIG. 2 has a plurality of line portions 9a, a loop portion 9b, a corner display portion 9c, and a dot portion 9d so as to exhibit the two effects.
And an attractant positioning portion 9e.

The plurality of line portions 9a shown in FIG. 2 are composed of a group of curves arranged in parallel, and are the portions that exhibit both the effect of making the cockroaches inconspicuous and the effect of making the unpainted portion easily visible. is there. The line portion 9a may be not only a group of curves arranged in parallel but also a group of straight lines which are parallel or not parallel. Further, the line portions 9a may be configured in a lattice shape. That is, in the present specification, “a plurality of lines” are not particularly limited in thickness and shape, and may be a single line or a combination of a thin line, a medium-thick line and a thick line, or a single line or a combination of a straight line and a wavy line. Or a solid line, a chain line, and a wavy line alone or in combination. Furthermore, the bundle of lines described above may be used, or two or more bundles of different types of lines may exist (for example, a bundle of solid lines and a bundle of chain lines).

The pattern 9 may be a continuous or intermittent semi-circular, rectangular, or semi-circular pattern, a rectangular pattern, an elliptical pattern, or the like. By arranging the cockroaches on at least a part of the cockroaches 2, cockroaches captured by the adhesive portion 2 can be made less noticeable.

Further, if the pattern 9 is a pattern having shades of color, the unpainted portion can be more easily recognized.

The loop portion 9b shown in FIG. 2 is disposed along the vicinity of the outer peripheral edge of the region where the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 10 is applied. Further, it can be easily recognized.

Moreover, the corner display section 9 shown in FIG.
Since c is disposed at the four corners of the region where the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 10 is applied, the unpainted portions at the four corners of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 10 can be further easily recognized.

By making the pattern 9 have a three-dimensional shadow by, for example, making the edge of the wide line thicker and making the center part thinner, the effect of making the cockroach less noticeable. Can be played.

Further, the attractant positioning portion 9e serves for easy and accurate positioning of the attractant (not shown) for attracting cockroaches.

In the cockroach catcher configured as described above, since the pattern 9 is provided on the upper surface of the bottom of the catcher main body 1, the cockroach captured by the adhesive portion 2 becomes less noticeable due to the pattern 9. , Discomfort is reduced.

Moreover, in the adhesive section 2, the trap body 1
Since the transparent or translucent pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 10 is formed on the bottom upper surface of the lens, the lens action of the pressure-sensitive adhesive, that is, the difference in the refractive index between the portion having the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 10 and the uncoated portion quickly causes the The unpainted portion can be checked.

In this embodiment, the pattern 9 shown in FIG. 2 has been described as an example of the pattern in the present invention. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the pattern is It is preferable that the pattern in the present invention also includes a pattern that is changed so as to be thin, narrow, or thin, and that the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer looks as if it has irregularities by applying the pattern.

Moreover, the pattern in the present invention may have a color or an achromatic color (black or white). Also, as the concentration increases, the captured cockroaches become less noticeable,
Discomfort may be reduced. Further, the color may be similar to the color of the cockroach body surface (brown, brown, black or a color close thereto) to reduce discomfort.

[0037]

According to the present invention, discomfort due to cockroaches after being captured can be reduced. Therefore, it is easy to move the used trap and to discard the used trap. Especially for women who dislike cockroaches, it is easier to discard the catcher by themselves, because they no longer have a sense of touching the catcher.

Further, the uncoated portion of the adhesive portion can be checked quickly. Therefore, the pressure-sensitive adhesive can be applied without leaving uncoated portions. As a result, the performance of capturing cockroaches is greatly improved.
