BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a capturing device, and more particularly, to a capturing device capable of on / off control of a power source automatically by employing an optical sensor.

Flies, flies, mosquitoes, moths, etc., are called pest insects. In order to control the insect pests, a pest control device is generally used to capture and capture pests, a pest control device that uses a high voltage to electrify pest control devices, and a pest control device that catches insects by spraying medicines. In such a trapping apparatus, a drive unit that is equipped with an attractor for irradiating the light preferred by the insect pest to the flyworms and the flyworm insecticide, and a drive unit that requires electric energy, such as a flyworm insecticide, is installed in the flyworm insecticide. In the following, we first examine the structure of a conventional trapping device using a sticky.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view schematically showing a catching device for catching insects compared to a conventional sticky batter, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view showing the internal structure thereof.

1 and 2, a conventional insect trapping apparatus 10 includes an incendiary lamp 12 for attracting insects and an insect lamp 12 for collecting insects attracted by the attractant lamp 12, A control unit 18 for transmitting a signal for controlling the motor unit 16 and a control unit 18 for controlling the attracting light 12, the sticky 14, the motor unit 16 And a housing 20 to which the control unit is mounted.

Since the conventional trapping apparatus 10 must manually control the on / off of the power source, if the administrator can not find an abnormality of the electric drive unit such as the attractor of the trapping apparatus in a timely manner, the trapping apparatus can not operate normally, This can be a factor that decreases reliability.

In addition, although the power supply to the induction lamp 12 and the motor unit 16 is collectively performed and the insect lightening role of the inducing lamp 12 is insignificant due to strong sunlight during the day, And there is no control device capable of turning on only the motor section 16, which is inefficient in terms of power saving. As shown in the drawing, the conventional trapping apparatus 10 is provided with a plurality of manpower lights 12, in which the power supply to each manpower lightpower 12 is integrally provided, The functional efficiency of the captive device is somewhat lowered because there is no technical configuration that can only cut off the power supply of the attracted person (12).

Similarly, in the case of a catching device (not shown) using the electric insecticide, all of the electric insecticide and the insect are connected to one power source in addition to the catching device 10 using the sticky material, And convenience of use was poor.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a capturing device capable of performing automatic power control by employing an optical sensor.

It is still another object of the present invention to provide a catching device capable of individually turning on and off the electric drive units.

It is still another object of the present invention to provide a catching device capable of opening and closing the oil hole by interlocking with a power source control of an attraction or the like.

In order to accomplish the above objects and to solve the problems of the prior art, the present invention relates to a method for inducing an insect pest, A capture unit capturing the attracted insect pests; A power source unit for supplying electric power to the attraction unit and the capturing unit; A control unit for transmitting the drive signal and the capturing unit driving signal to the power source unit; An optical sensor that converts an optical signal of light received to transmit the driving signal into an electrical signal and transmits the electrical signal to the control unit; And a housing on which the capturing unit, the power source unit, the control unit, and the optical sensor are mounted, such as the attractor.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

3 is a schematic view showing the structure of a catchment device according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, the capture device 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention is a capture device that uses a sticky material to which an adhesive material is applied to the capture unit 120 to fix the pest. The capture device 100 includes a housing 160 and a plurality of drive units mounted inside the housing 160. [ The plurality of drive units are provided with an electric power source 110 for supplying electric power to an attracting light 110, an external light sensor 150 for sensing external sunlight, a capturing unit 120 for capturing pests, a capturing unit 120, And a control unit 140 connected to the power source unit 130 and the external light sensor 150 to transmit and receive signals.

The insect pests are attracted by the light irradiated by the attracting person 110 and fly toward the catching device 100. Once the insect pests have entered the catching device 100, the insect pests can be trapped by the capture unit 100, preferably by a secondary induction lamp or the like (not shown) or by other attracting materials or attracting light, (120) and is captured by the adhesive material of the capture unit (120).

The attractant lamp 110 generally uses a light source that irradiates ultraviolet rays of a wavelength band of 340 nm to 380 nm that the pest insects like. It is known that parasites and brownflies prefer light at 340 nm or 575 nm, moths and mosquitoes at 366 nm, and common insects prefer 340 to 380 nm light. Depending on the pest to be eradicated, a fluorescent lamp of a wavelength band more suitable for the attractant lamp 102 may be used or other suitable light sources may be used.

The light irradiated by the incendiary lamp 110 is reduced by half during the day due to the interference caused by the sunlight. In addition, since the time for people to suffer difficulties due to insect pests is mainly the night time when the sunlight weakens, the power of the induction lamp 110 is turned on at night and turned off at night Can adopt automatic power control. To this end, an external light sensor 150 is provided outside the housing 160 to sense sunlight.

The external light sensor 150 automatically turns on and off the power of the induction lamp 110 according to the illuminance of the external sunlight. Generally, the roughness values of 120,000 ~ 100,000 (lux), 100,000 ~ 50,000 (lux) on cloudy days, 50,000 ~ 10,000 lux on cloudy days and 10,000 ~ 5,000 lux on rainy day . The illuminance of office or meeting room is 300 ~ 600 (lux), and the bright office on cloudy day is illuminance of 600 (lux). The fluorescent lamp used as the induction lamp 110 is difficult to exhibit illumination of more than 3,000 lux even if it is bright. Therefore, when the induction lamp 110 is used in a day, whether on a clear day or a rainy day, Since the light is shielded by the external sunlight, the attracting effect of insect pests is halved. Accordingly, when the external light sensor 150 senses the illuminance of the external sunlight to, for example, 5,000 (lux) or less, the external light sensor 150 transmits the sensed external light to the controller 140 and transmits the driving signal of the illuminator 110 to the power source unit 130 .

The power source unit 130 includes a power source unit 131 such as an attracting power source and a capturing unit power source unit 132. The attracting power source unit 131 turns on and off the attracting light 110 and the capturing unit power source unit 132 turns on and off the capturing unit 120. [ The system in which the power supply unit 130 is controlled by the control unit 140 is provided in the catchment apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. It is preferable to separately provide a switch.

The control unit 140 receives an electrical signal transmitted according to the change of the sunlight sensed by the external light sensor 150 and automatically transmits a signal for driving the power source unit 131 and the capturing unit power source unit 132, 130). The driving signal transmitted to the power source unit 130 may be transmitted to the control unit 140 at a predetermined illuminance or lower and may be stored in the memory to transmit the off driving signal at a predetermined illuminance or higher.

If the illuminance is sensed below a predetermined illuminance as required, for example, 5,000 (lux) or less from the optical sensor 150, the control unit 140 receiving this information outputs the drive signal of the power source 131, 132) drive signal to the power source unit 130 at the same time so that the power source is turned on at the same time, so that the capture device 100 can be operated.

On the other hand, when the illuminance of 5,000 (lux) or more is detected by the optical sensor 150 at a predetermined illuminance or more, for example, the optical sensor 150 receives the information and the control unit 140 receives the driving signal of the power source unit 131, It is possible to transmit only the driving signal of the capturing unit power supply unit 132 without turning on the driving signal of the power supply unit 131 by delivering the driving signal individually so that the attracting light 110 is turned off and only the capturing unit 120 is driven . Or may turn off both the attracting unit 110 and the capturing unit 120 when not used at all in the daytime.

The capturing unit 120 in the catching device 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention drives the catching part 121 and the catching part 121 with the adhesive material applied on one side thereof, And an automatic winding motor portion 122 for winding and unwinding a new bonding surface. Power is supplied by the capturing unit power supply unit 132, so that the on-off is controlled in accordance with the capturing unit power supply unit 132 driving signal transmitted from the control unit 140. [

When the control unit 140 stores the driving of the motor unit 122 of the capturing unit 120 so as to continue to operate at a low speed without stopping the control unit 140 generates only a signal for controlling the power source unit 131, It will be possible. Or may transmit the driving signal of the capturing unit power supply unit 132 independently or interlocked with the power supply unit 131 such as an attracting person as necessary. It should be noted that in any case, the program set in the control unit 140 may be changed according to the selection of the user or the administrator, and is not limited to the embodiment of the present invention.

The power supply control of the motors 111, 112 and 113, the covers 171, 172 and 173 or the motor unit 122 is performed by controlling the illuminance of the sunlight or the human being sensed by the optical sensors 150, 151, 152 and 153 And is compared with the reference illuminance value set in advance by the control unit 140 according to the change. That is, as described above, if the attraction or the like is turned off and the motor unit is operated only at a predetermined illuminance or higher, or the motor unit is operated simultaneously with the attraction or the like at a predetermined illuminance or less.

In the above-described embodiment, only the cases where the lead wires 111, 112, and 113 and the covers 171, 172, and 173 are simultaneously driven and operated at the same time have been described.
