DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

1 is a cross-sectional view showing a catching device of the present invention.

1 includes a fan 110 that sucks upstream air and pushes the air to the downstream side, a trap 120 that is disposed downstream of the fan to emit the light that attracts insects, And a capturing unit 130 for trapping insects.

The fan 110 includes rotating means such as a motor and a propeller fastened to the shaft of the motor. The fan 110 sucks air from one side with respect to the propeller and emits it to the other side. At this time, the direction in which air flows into the fan is referred to as an upstream side, and the direction in which air is radiated or pushed away from the fan is referred to as a downstream side. In Fig. 1, the upward direction of the fan is the upstream side, and the downward direction of the fan is the downstream side.

The caterpillar 120 attracts insects with light. The collapsible lamp 120 can be composed of various lighting means. The illuminating means may be LED, OLED, incandescent lamp, fluorescent lamp, and the like. Further, the lighting means may include a case for covering the lighting means to prevent contamination of the lighting means with pests, dust, and the like attached thereto. In Fig. 1, the external shape of the buggy is the same as that of the buggy case.

The capturing unit 130 may be composed of various nets or barrels, and may be constructed by mixing nets and barrels.

The trapping device of the present invention is arranged in the order of the fan 110, the catchfly 120, and the catcher 130 from top to bottom. At this time, since the captive lamp 120 and the capturing unit 130 are disposed on the downstream side of the fan 110, insects pushed toward the captive lamp 120 can not be attached to the captive lamp 120 due to the air pushed out of the fan 110 And is pushed to the capturing part 130. The trapped pest can not escape the catch by the wind pressure of the air being pushed out of the pan. In addition, since the fan is not included in the movement route of the pest, there is no possibility that the fan is contaminated by pest. That is, since the insect pest is not crushed by the fan, contamination of the pest and the like located on the downstream side of the fan and the fan is reduced.

Accordingly, if the catching lamp 120 is disposed on the downstream side of the fan 110 and the catching portion 130 is disposed on the downstream side of the catching or the like, the contamination of the fan and repellent can be prevented, The appearance can be continuously provided. And it is also possible to effectively prevent the insect that has flowed into the capturing part from escaping from the capturing part. The method of catching insects by the air pushed out of the fan can be referred to as an air drop method.

On the other hand, an additional means can be added to highlight this effect.

For example, the trapping apparatus may include a shutter unit 140 provided in the catching unit 130 to open and close the entrance of the catching unit 130 into which the pest is introduced.

The shutter unit 140 is configured to be elastically biased in a direction to close the inlet of the capturing unit 130 to close the entrance of the capturing unit, particularly when the fan 110 is not driven. This keeps the inlet of the normally closed portion closed so as to prevent the trapped pest from escaping from the trapping portion.

The entrance of the capturing unit 130 may be a gap between the fixing plate 141 included in the shutter unit and the moving plate 142 disposed on the downstream side of the fixing plate. That is, the shutter unit 140 may include a holding plate 141 fixed to the capturing unit 130 or the case 190 of the catching device, and a moving plate 142 for opening and closing the opening of the holding plate on the downstream side of the holding plate. have.

At this time, the moving plate 142 is detached from the fixing plate 141 when the pressure of the air pushed by the fan 110 is higher than the set value, and is brought into close contact with the fixing plate 141 when the pressure of air pushed out of the fan is lower than the set value desirable. That is, when there is no wind pressure by the fan, the moving plate is elastically biased and brought into close contact with the fixing plate, and if there is a wind pressure by the fan, the moving plate overcomes the elastic bias and falls off the fixing plate. The gap between the moving plate and the fixed plate that the moving plate falls to the fixed plate becomes the entrance of the capturing portion.

At this time, the shutter unit 140 may be configured in various ways.

First, as shown in FIG. 1, the shutter unit 140 is disposed on the downstream side of the fixing plate 141 and the fixing plate 141 on which the capturing unit 130 is mounted and formed with a through hole. By tightly contacting the fixing plate 141 and the fixing plate 141, And the moving plate 142 having the opposite surface of the fan 110 formed convex.

For example, the fixing plate 141 may be a donut type having a through hole formed at the center thereof, and may have a structure in which the air pushed to the downstream side is guided to the trapping portion. In Fig. 1, it gradually extends from the edge to the downstream side. According to this, the air pushed out of the fan is guided to the through hole formed at the center. That is, it is preferable that the fixing plate is formed with a concave surface facing the fan.

At this time, the moving plate 142 may be formed so that the opposite surface of the fan is convex, so that the air pushed by the fan is intensively guided into the gap between the fixing plate and the moving plate. The through hole of the fixing plate can be closed in such a manner that a part of the convex portion of the moving plate is inserted into the through hole of the fixing plate.

Specifically, the fixing plate includes a boss 143 extending to the downstream side of the fixing plate, a first washer 144 fitted to the boss, a second washer 147 fitted to the downstream side of the first washer at the boss, And an elastic member 145 interposed between the first washer and the second washer. Also included is fastening means 146 that is fastened to the end of the boss to prevent the first washer, the resilient member, and the second washer from disengaging from the boss. The fastening means 146 may be a screw or the like that is larger than the diameter of the boss. The edge of the moving plate is placed on the opposed surface of the fan in the first washer 144. [

Assembly can be done as follows. First, the moving plate 142 faces the fixing plate 141.

Next, a first washer 144 is inserted into a boss 143 extending to the downstream side of the fixing plate. At this time, the first washer 144 faces the edge of the moving plate 142. Specifically, the edge of the moving plate can be placed on the upstream side surface of the first washer.

The second washer 147 is fitted to the boss 143 and the elastic member 145 having the boss coaxial is interposed between the first washer 144 and the second washer 147. In practice, it would be the procedure to insert the elastic member first in the boss and then the second washer.

The second washer 147 is screwed into the fastening means 146 so as not to be detached from the boss.

The first washer 144 and the moving plate 142 may be integrally formed to facilitate assembly and movement of the moving plate. Further, the fastening means and the second washer may be integrally formed. For example, when the fastening means is a spring, a screw having a cap portion having a diameter larger than the diameter of the spring corresponds to this example. An example in which the first washer and the moving plate are integrally formed and the second washer and the fastening means are integrally formed is shown in the upper left figure of Fig.

On the other hand, it is preferable that at least three bosses 143 extending downward from the fixing plate 141 are formed to reliably support and move the moving plate. At this time, it is preferable that the plurality of bosses are formed at symmetrical positions. For example, if the fixing plate is circular, it is symmetrical when the boss is installed at the same angular interval. That is, when three bosses are formed, they are formed at intervals of 120 degrees, and when four bosses are formed, they are preferably formed at intervals of 90 degrees. If the fixing plate is a polygon, the position including each corner is a symmetrical position.

The shutter unit 240 may be configured as shown in FIG.

2 is a cross-sectional view showing another catching device of the present invention.

The shutter unit 240 of the catching device shown in FIG. 2 includes a fixing plate 241 and a moving plate 242.

The holding plate 241 is provided with a catching portion and formed with a through hole. The edge of the fixing plate 241 may be fixed to the catching part 130, and a through hole may be formed at the center. In addition, it is preferable that the surface opposed to the fan 110 is formed concavely so that air pushed out of the fan is guided to the through hole.

The moving plate 242 includes a hinge 244, a weight 245, and an opening /

The hinge 244 is assembled to the fixing plate 241 so that the weight 245 and the opening and closing part 246 are rotated by using the hinge 244 as a rotation axis. The hinge 243 may be formed on the fixing plate corresponding to the hinge of the moving plate.

The weight 245 is formed on one side of the moving plate about the hinge 244 of the moving plate assembled to the holding plate.

The opening and closing part 246 is formed on the other side of the weight on the hinge 244 and opens and closes the through hole by rotational movement about the hinge. For example, when the weight plate 245 is formed in the region where the right side region and the left side region are located with respect to the hinge in the fixing plate, the opening and closing unit 246 is formed in the region. Corresponding to this, a through hole is formed in the right side region a of the fixing plate. According to this configuration, when the pressure of the air pushed from the fan 110 is higher than the set value, the opening and closing part 246 overcomes the weight of the weight 245 and opens the air hole, If the weight is less than the set value, the through hole is closed by the weight of the weight 245. At this time, the air pushed out from the fan may pressurize the weight weight formed in the area, and may interfere with the reliable operation of the opening and closing part. In order to prevent this, a wind film 247 for blocking the air flowing into the area can be formed between the fan and the weight. At this time, the wind film 247 is preferably extended from the fixing plate to facilitate production.

1 and 2 includes a protective box 170 extending from the fan 110 to the downstream side and guiding the air pushed out of the fan 110 to the catching part 130 side.

At this time, the protective box 170 may be installed to surround the bugle lamp 120. According to this, it is possible to prevent the pest from contacting the bug, and as a result, contamination of the bug is prevented. However, it is preferable that the downstream side of the protective box 270 is opened so as not to damage the function of guiding air pushed from the fan to the downstream side. As shown in FIG. 1, when the length of the protective box is increased to be close to the capturing unit 130, the protective function of the insect and the like increases, and the wind pressure of the guided air is increased, but the range in which the insect can be captured can be reduced. When the length of the protective barrel is shortened as shown in Fig. 2, the range in which insects can be caught is increased, but the protection function such as bombardment and wind pressure are lowered. Therefore, the length of the protective box 170 should be appropriately selected in consideration of the protective function of the wind pressure, bombardment, etc., caused by the fan, and the collection range.

The present invention can use an external power source for driving the fan 110 and the insect lamp 120. However, appropriate power supply means may be provided to be used in various environments such as indoor and outdoor. For example, the capture device may include a power source unit 150 and a charger unit 160.

The power supply unit 150 supplies power to the fan 110. In addition, power can be supplied to the captive lamp 120 as well. The power supply may include a battery.

The charging unit 160 charges the power supply unit 150, and preferably an environmentally-friendly power generation unit is used. For example, the live part may include at least one of wind power generation means and solar power generation means. The live part includes at least one of a wind power generation means and a solar power generation means, and can move in accordance with the direction of wind, which is the source of wind power generation, or the movement of the sun, which is the source of solar power generation.

1 and 2 show a solar battery as a solar power generation means. The case 190 may include a fan 110, a captive lamp 120, a body portion 193 in which the capturing portion is housed or installed, and a rotation portion 191 in which the charging portion 160 is housed or installed and rotated. The rotation unit 191 may rotate along the movement of the sun to follow the sunlight, for example, when the charger 160 is a solar battery. The solar battery installed or housed in the rotary part according to the rotation of the rotary part receives a lot of light from the sun, and the power generation efficiency is improved. To this end, one or more sensors for sensing the movement of the sun may be disposed on the rotating part. The rotation unit may include a signal generator for generating a control signal for tracking the movement of the sun after analyzing the motion of the sun through the output of the sensor. The rotating unit may include a driving unit such as a motor for rotating the rotating unit by a control signal generated by the signal generating unit.

3 is a cross-sectional view showing another catching device of the present invention.

A shutter is used in the upper part to prevent the escape of the insect that has flowed into the capturing part 130 by the air pushed by the fan 110. [

The embodiment of FIG. 3 includes an auxiliary fan 340 provided at the entrance of the capturing unit 130 into which insects flow. The auxiliary fan 340 is provided to prevent escape of the insect that has flowed into the capturing unit 130. The flow of the air generated by the rotation of the auxiliary fan 340 is from the upstream side to the downstream side like the fan 110. The auxiliary fan 340 is not used to suck the pest on the upstream side but is used to prevent escape of the pest that has already flowed into the capturing part 130. The rotational speed of the auxiliary fan 340 is preferably lower than the rotational speed of the fan 110 . Thus, by installing the auxiliary fan 340 at a lower speed relative to the fan 110 at the inlet of the capturing part, it is possible to reliably prevent the insect from escaping from the capturing part 130. In addition, since the insect pushed by the fan 110 is not crushed by the auxiliary fan 340 and the insect pushed by the fan 110 easily passes between the wings of the auxiliary fan 340, (130). ≪ / RTI >

4 is a perspective view showing the catching device of the present invention.

The catching device may include the fan 110, the catcher 120, and the case 190 in which the catcher is housed or installed. The power supply unit 150 and the charging unit 160 may be stored or installed in the case 190. In addition, the capture device may include a support 180 extending from the case 190 to the ground to support the case 190.

The support base 180 may be configured as a plurality of legs, and each leg may include a length adjusting means 181 to maintain the horizontal state and adjust the height.

5 is a schematic view showing another catching device of the present invention.

5, the state in which the fan 110 installed in the case 190 and the buggy lamp 120 are viewed from below is started. For the sake of convenience of explanation, it is recalled that the capturing portion is not shown.

According to Bokchung et al. (120), pests can be attracted mainly at night. However, since the light of the insect lamp 120 is diluted by other light such as sunlight during the daytime, the insect attracting effect of the insect lamp 120 may be lowered.

5 may include a mixing portion disposed on the flow path of the air sucked and pushed by the fan 110 and mixing the agent that influences the action of the pest into the air. The flow path of the air may be a path (indicated by an arrow) through which the air pushed by the fan 110 moves, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. In addition, the air flow path may be a path through which the air sucked into the fan 110 moves.

When the mixing section includes the storage tank for storing the agitator and the discharge section for discharging the agent stored in the storage tank to the outside, the discharge section may be disposed on the flow path of the air.

Agents that affect pest behavior can be pheromone lures or intercourse with components that attract insects. The pheromone lures or intercourse lures can attract insects regardless of whether the insects 120 are activated or not. In order to prevent the frequent filling of the agitator, the mixed portion can be driven only in an environment where the function of the insect is low, for example, in the daytime when the sunlight is strong. According to this, at night, insect pests can attract insects and daytime insect pests can be attracted. In addition, when an agonist is applied, a desired insect can be selectively attracted. For example, when it is necessary to attract a desired pest, the mixing portion can be driven in a state in which the pest or the like that attracts the pest is turned off in a general manner. Of course, the agonist at this time should contain ingredients that can attract the desired pest.

Further, in order to induce the pest more reliably, it is also possible to drive the agonist and the repellent together.

The agonist may also include an insect repellent to evacuate the pest. Depending on the situation, it may be necessary to follow the insect pest in an environment where daylight or an external illuminant such as a fluorescent lamp operates. In this case, insect repellent can be utilized as an agent.

An example of the installation of the mixing part may be as follows.

And a case 190 that covers the fan 110 on the upstream side of the fan 110 and has a hole 193 through which the air sucked into the fan 110 flows. At this time, the mixing portion may be disposed on the upstream side of the hole 193. The agitator discharged from the mixing portion is mixed with the air on the upstream side of the hole 193. The air on the upstream side of the hole 193 is sucked by the fan 110 and pushed to the downstream side of the fan 110 and spreads away due to the force and speed that is pushed.

The case 190 may have a plurality of layers. The case 190 having a hole in FIG. 5 may be an inner case formed adjacent to the fan in FIG. The inner layer case may not be exposed to the outside.

The amount of the agent to be sucked by the fan may vary depending on the position or size of the hole. It is necessary to suck up the maximum amount of the agent discharged from the mixing section into the fan. 5, at least a part of the holes 193 may be formed to overlap with the wings of the fan 110 when viewed in the axial direction of the air.

It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof. It is therefore to be understood that the embodiments described above are to be considered in all respects only as illustrative and not restrictive. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the detailed description and all changes or modifications derived from the meaning and scope of the claims and their equivalents are to be construed as being included within the scope of the present invention do.

It can be applied to a device for collecting pests.

In particular, it is advantageous to apply to a trapping device that needs to be installed environmentally friendly in various environments where contamination is expected.
