Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an insect repellent device installed at an opening of a structure having an opening/closing member such as a door, such as kitchen furniture, food storage, and other food storage rooms.

Conventional Structures and Problems Generally, this type of furniture or storage room has an opening/closing body such as a door that closes an opening, but the opening/closing body is open or has an opening. There is a problem that when a small gap is created between the main body and the opening/closing body, insects such as cockroaches can enter. Usually using insect traps,
Alternatively, a seal to prevent insects is provided at the contact area between the opening and the opening/closing body. Although the insect trap is somewhat effective because it is placed in the passageway for insects such as cockroaches, it cannot prevent all insects from entering the main body through the opening.

In addition, those that use packing may have gaps due to aging, whereas insects such as cockroaches may have gaps of only 1 m.
It cannot be said to be a perfect means of preventing insects because insects can invade even if there is a gap of m.

By the way, insects, especially cockroaches, secrete sticky substances on the backs of their legs, so when a relatively low voltage is applied between the two liquids, they are sensitive to electric shocks, and they have the property of jumping away due to the electric shock. .

For this reason, an electric insect repellent as shown in FIG. 15 has been devised. This electric insect repellent has at least a pair of electrode bodies 1.1 arranged with a small gap between them.
A DC low voltage of 10 to 4 ov is applied between the two. Note that 3 in the figure indicates a power source such as a dry battery.

When a cockroach 4 passes by as shown in the figure and its limbs touch the pair of electrode bodies 1, 1, it may feel an electric shock and run away, or it may twitch, or it may lose electricity and roll over. visible and therefore extremely effective as a means of insect control.

The present inventors have considered installing the electric insect repellent described above, which is effective as an insect repellent, in a structure having an opening and an opening/closing body. For example, as shown in FIG.
An electric insect repellent 7 is attached to the rim of the opening 6. Note that 8 in the figure is a door that is an opening/closing body. By the way, as shown in FIG. 17, if the door 8 comes into contact with the electric insect repellent 7, there is a risk that the electrode bodies 1, 1 may be damaged or a short circuit may occur. Therefore, as shown in Fig. 18, it is conceivable to use a gasket 9 to protect the door and improve airtightness and insect repellency, but when the door 8 is closed with strong force,
There is also the problem that the door 8 hits the electrode bodies 1, 1 and damages the electrode bodies 1, 1.

Purpose of the Invention The present invention takes into account the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide an insect repellent device that does not cause damage or short circuit to the electrode body of an electric insect repellent in a structure having a door for opening and closing an opening. .

Structure of the Invention In order to achieve the above object, the present invention consists of a structure having an opening, an opening/closing body for opening and closing the opening, and an electrode body for electric shock, the electrode body being arranged around the opening, and The insect repellent device is installed at a position away from the contact area between the structure and the opening/closing body.1 It prevents damage and short circuits to the electrode body for electric shock, and effectively exerts its insect repellent function. .

DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

In the figure, 1o is a storage cabinet main body having an opening 11 and a door 12, and a portion of a lip 13 surrounding the opening 11 that does not come into contact with the door 12, that is, a portion located outward from the outer edge. Electric insect repellent 14 is provided. The electric insect repellent 14 has a pair of band electrode bodies 15.1.
5 are arranged with a small gap between them, and the electrode body 15.1
5 is applied with a low voltage, for example 10 to 40 V, by a power source 16.

In the insect repellent device having the above configuration, the electric insect repellent 14 provided to surround the opening/section 11 is located outward from the outer edge of the door 12, so that when the door 12 is closed, the inside of the door 12 is exposed. It does not hit the electrode body 16 16 of the electric insect repellent 14, and the electrode body 15.15 is not damaged or short-circuited.
It can exhibit a stable insect repellent function. In addition, this embodiment does not require a special gasket to protect the electrode, which is advantageous in terms of manufacturing.In addition, when insects such as cockroaches try to enter the opening, they touch the electrode body 16°16 and receive an electric shock. It escapes when received, and does not enter through the opening.

3 to 14 show other embodiments of the present invention, and the one shown in FIG. 3 is the one shown in FIG. 2 with nine sealing seals 17 added, and the basic structure and effects are are the same. Figures 4 to 6 show the electrode body 16 of the electric insect repellent.
, 15 storage cabinets) 10 mouth-edges and doors 12
Shows each side provided in the part that does not abut. Figures 7 to 10
The figure shows an example in which electrode bodies 15 and 15 are provided on the doors 1 and 2, and are provided in positions that do not come into contact with the storage cabinet body 10. In FIG. 11, a pair of electrode bodies 15.15 are provided separately on the storage cabinet main body 10 and the door 12, and are provided in positions that do not come into contact with the mating door 12 or the storage cabinet main body 1o.

13 and 14, electrode bodies 16.18 are provided in the recess 18 on the opening edge of the storage cabinet main body 1o and in the recess 19 inside the door 12, and both are connected to the corresponding door 12 or the storage cabinet main body 10. An example is shown in which the In each of the above embodiments, a pair of electrode bodies 115.
16 has a small gap between them to maintain insulation, and is arranged so that insects such as cockroaches that try to enter the opening are susceptible to electric shock. Also, as a matter of course, there is a relationship surrounding the opening.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the description of the above embodiments, the insect repellent device of the present invention is a structure equipped with an opening/closing body such as a door that opens and closes an opening, and the insect repellent device of the present invention is a structure that is equipped with an opening/closing body such as a door that opens and closes an opening. There is no damage and short circuit, and the effect is great.

Note that the present invention is not limited to storage cabinets, but can also be applied to entrances with bathroom doors, windows of houses, etc. In addition, the electric insect repellent can be used to protect against cockroaches and other infestations, such as ants. Needless to say, it is also effective against
