Pest trapping device {Apparatus for Capturing Vermin}

The present invention relates to a pest trapping device, and more particularly, to a pest trapping device that can maintain a high capture rate in harmony with the surrounding environment even if the installation site is changed.

Generally, pests refer to insects or animals that harm humans and domestic animals. Common types of pests found in confined spaces such as homes and offices include cockroaches, dust trimmers, ants, ticks, centipedes, and mosquitoes. These pests devour food and fabrics, causing considerable damage to people's lives. The feces also carry pathogens that are harmful to the body. In recent years, as these pests increase as the environment becomes more polluted, eliminating pests has become a big problem. Therefore, ordinary homes, companies or communities try to eliminate pests in various ways.

Among these pests, in order to remove flying pests such as flies, mosquitoes, moths, a device for capturing pests by attracting the pests with light and electrically attracting the attracted pests or by adhering to the sticky ones is widely used. Such pest trapping devices are particularly referred to by the term "reposer" or "insect".

With reference to Figures 1 to 2, an example of a conventional general pest capture device for removing the adventitious pests are as follows.

Conventional pest trapping device 10, the attracting lamp 12 is provided in the main body housing 11 to attract pests, the lower portion of the main housing 11 is provided with a string 13 is attracted by the attracting lamp 12 Attracted pests are configured to be caught. A cover 14 is coupled to the front surface of the body housing 11, and a plurality of inlets 15 are formed in the cover 14 so that pests are introduced into the body housing 11. In addition, a lower portion of the main housing 11 is provided with a control panel 16 for controlling the overall operation of the pest trapping device 10 such as the operation of the attraction lamp.

In addition, as a catching means for capturing pests, in addition to the sticky 13, an electric insecticide or an inhaler for capturing through suction force is used.

The pest trapping device may be placed on the floor or mounted on the wall W of the building as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.

On the other hand, the main purpose of the pest trap device is to increase the capture rate of the pest. However, it is also important to prevent food from being damaged by pests by increasing the catch rate of insects in places that consider hygiene such as restaurants, but it is equally important that people in the places do not feel uncomfortable by the pest trapping device. It is also important. That is, for this purpose, various designs are designed such that the exterior is designed according to the surrounding environment, and the size of the inlet is changed so that captured pests are not visible to people.

However, the conventional pest trapping device is composed of one inlet cover is formed, if the installation location is changed, it is difficult to expect the effect that fits the place. For example, when using a pest trap indoors, such as in hospitals and restaurants, it is advisable to ensure that the light to attract the pest is not emitted to the human eye, and also that the body of the pest trapped by the pest trap is not visible. It is desirable to. In other words, if the pest trapping device is installed indoors, it may be more effective not to cause discomfort to people even if the catch rate is slightly lowered.

On the other hand, if the pest catcher is installed outdoors, it is better to give priority to increasing the catch rate of the pest rather than the convenience of the people. Therefore, it is preferable to form the inlet so that the amount of light irradiated from the attraction lamp is radiated to the outside.

The present invention is to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a pest trapping apparatus that can be pursued in harmony with the capture rate of the pest and the surrounding environment according to the installation place.
