Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a storage cabinet equipped with an electric insect repellent device for preventing the invasion of pests such as cockroaches that gather in a kitchen, a dining room, a food storage room, and the like.

Structures of conventional examples and their problems Most conventional electric insect repellent devices are constructed as shown in FIG. Reference numeral 1 consists of an insulating base material 3 and a pair of electrodes 6.6 for electric shock, which are arranged approximately 2·ζ parallel to each other on the upper surface of the insulating base material 3 with a gap 4 in between. In addition, the electrodes 6, 6 are connected to a dry battery 7 from 1o to
A voltage of about 30 volts is applied.

It is known that insects such as cockroaches receive severe electric shocks when a voltage of approximately 10 volts is applied between their legs. Here, when Kinushi 8 tries to climb up wall 2 and its legs straddle interval 4 and touch electrode 6°6, insect 8
When a voltage is applied to the body and a current flows through its body, it receives a severe electric shock and falls downward as if jumping. Therefore, the insects 8 cannot advance beyond the insect control device 1. Therefore, such a device can prevent the invasion of pests.

However, when such an insect repellent device is installed in the storage 9 as shown in FIG.
o often hits the front of the insect repellent device or gets splashed with water droplets, damaging the electrode 6゜6 surface or damaging the pair of electrodes 6.
．． 6 becomes short-circuited, the battery 7 becomes exhausted, and the electrode 5 becomes short-circuited.
, 6, which caused a problem in that the insect repellent function could not be properly performed.

OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION The present invention takes into account the above-mentioned conventional problems and aims to provide an electric insect repellent device that can always effectively perform its insect repellent function.

Structure of the Invention In order to achieve the above object, the present invention includes a storage main body having an opening, a door attached to the opening so as to be openable and closable, and a door located near the opening of the storage main body and spaced apart from each other over the entire circumference of the opening. A device that attempts to prevent short-circuiting of electrodes with a configuration that includes a pair of electrodes arranged approximately in parallel, a power supply device that applies voltage to the electrodes, and a switch that cuts off power to the electrodes when the door is opened. It is.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 3 to 5.

In the figure, reference numeral 11 denotes a storage main body having an opening 12, and a door 14 for opening and closing the opening 12 is attached to a hinge 13. Reference numeral 15 denotes a pair of electrodes provided around the entire periphery of the opening 12, which are arranged substantially parallel to each other with a gap in between. Reference numeral 16 denotes a dry battery that applies a voltage of more than 10 volts to the electrode 16, and is connected to the electrode 16 via a switch 17 such as a microswitch connected in series to form a power supply circuit 18. The operating portion 19 of this switch 17 is still opposed to the inner surface of the door 14, and is turned on when the door 14 is opened and turned off when the door 14 is opened.

In the above configuration, now the door 14 is opened and the storage main body 11 is opened.
Suppose that you are trying to store an item, for example, a pot, and accidentally hit the pot against the surface of the storage main body 110. However, as shown in FIG. 4, when the door 14 is open, the switch 17 is off and the electrode 16 is not energized, so that unnecessary battery consumption can be prevented.

In this embodiment, the electrodes 15 are provided on the storage main body 11 side, but of course, as shown in FIG. .

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the description of the above embodiments, in the storage with an insect repellent device according to the present invention, the power supply to the installed electrodes is cut off when the door is opened, so short-circuiting of the electrodes can be prevented and normal insect repellent function can be maintained. It is something that can demonstrate its true potential, and its value is great.
