Description

{APPARATUS FOR CAPTURING INSECTS}

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a trapping apparatus, and more particularly, to a trapping apparatus for capturing an insect providing light that attracts an insect.

Recently, pests have been increasing due to climatic and social influences due to global warming and eco-friendly policies. Pests can damage crops and livestock as well as water, malaria, dengue fever and Japanese encephalitis, as well as affect humans. Accordingly, in order to chase or eliminate pests, conventionally, methods such as spraying insecticides or burning insecticidal scents have been mainly used.

However, insecticides and insecticidal fragrances contain toxic chemicals, which are harmful to humans. Also, it is possible to use a bract paper, which has a disadvantage that the attractiveness and adhesion of the bug are significantly reduced over time and the beauty of the place where the bug paper is installed is severely damaged.

In recent years, electric insecticides have been widely used in which an insect is electrochemically eradicated by an electrical method such as an ultraviolet lamp or a bombardment. Such an electric insecticide has a problem in that, when the space is narrow, a person resides near an ultraviolet lamp or a bombardment, and there is a case in which he or she has to look at work. In such a case, there is a problem that ultraviolet rays may be inconvenient for a person who is near the ultraviolet lamp or bombardment, and there is a problem that the ultraviolet ray is radiated in all directions and the light amount of the ultraviolet ray is dispersed.

FIG. 1 is a view showing a catching device according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view showing a catching device according to an embodiment of the present invention. And FIG. 3 is a block diagram illustrating a catchment device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The capturing device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 10, a grill portion 20, a lamp portion 30, a pressure sensitive adhesive sheet 40, a driving portion 50, a sensing portion 60, and a control portion 70 .

The housing 10 is formed to have a certain space therein and to open at one side thereof. And the open side is formed in both open side shapes. That is, the housing 10 is formed such that both open sides and both sides thereof are opened as shown in FIG. The housing 10 is formed so that the height of the housing 10 from the bottom surface of the housing 10 becomes lower as the insects entering both sides of the housing 10 are moved from both sides toward the center so that they can not go outside. In addition, a plurality of locking portions may be formed on the back surface of the housing 10 so as to be installed on the wall surface. The housing 10 may be formed of a metal or plastic material.

The grill portion 20 is installed at both sides of the housing 10 in an open state, and is formed in a mesh shape to provide a passage through which insects flow. So that the insects can flow into the housing 10 through the mesh. The size and shape of the mesh of the grill portion 20 can be formed differently depending on the size of the insect to be attracted and the type of flight. If necessary, a photocatalyst for generating carbon dioxide may be applied to the grill part 20 to attract insects.

At this time, the photocatalyst is a material functioning as a photocatalytic medium and may include titanium oxide (TiO ₂ ), silicon oxide (SiO ₂ ), tungsten oxide (WO ₃ ), zirconium oxide (ZnO) Mixture.

The photocatalyst may react with light emitted from the first lamp unit 31 to generate radicals having strong oxidizing properties. The radicals decompose the organic components around the photocatalyst and generate carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide is known to be a gas capable of attracting insects, and the organic radicals in the air around the grill part 20 are decomposed by the generated radicals to purify the air around the grill part 20 have.

In order to increase the production efficiency of carbon dioxide, an attractant such as lactic acid, amino acid, sodium chloride, uric acid, ammonia or proteolytic substance may be further applied to the grill portion 20. These attractants can be applied by a method such as spraying the photocatalyst periodically or non-periodically as needed.

The grill portion 20 is installed to be spaced apart from the first lamp portion 31 as shown in FIG. The first ramp portion 31 can be prevented from interfering with the path through which the attracted insects are introduced into the housing 10. Further, the grill portion 20 is detachably installed in the housing 10.

The front cover 11 is installed on the grill portion 20 so as to cover one open side of the housing 10. 1 and 2, the front cover 11 is installed on the grill part 20 in a state where the grill part 20 is mounted on the housing 10, . The front cover 11 is curved toward the inner surface of the housing 10 so that the height of the bottom surface of the housing 10 decreases from the both sides toward the center. The insect attracted to the inside of the housing 10 can be caught by the adhesive sheet 40 to be described later after passing along the curved surface (curved surface) of the front cover 11.

The front cover 11 is detachably attached to the housing 10. The user can remove the insects remaining in the interior of the housing 10 by removing the front cover 11 through one side of the opened housing 10, The sheet 40 may be replaced.

Like the housing 10, the front cover 11 may be formed of a metal or plastic material.

The lamp unit 30 includes a first lamp unit 31, a reflection plate 33, and a second lamp 35.

The first lamp unit 31 is installed on both sides of the housing 10 and emits insect attracting light so that the insects can flow through the grill unit 20. In an embodiment of the present invention, the first lamp unit 31 may include a plurality of light emitting diodes or light emitting diode packages. The plurality of light emitting diodes included in the first lamp unit 31 may be disposed on the support substrate, and the support substrate may be in the form of a panel having a predetermined thickness. The supporting substrate may include a printed circuit board (PCB) having an integrated circuit or wiring therein. The printed circuit board may include a circuit pattern in a region where the first lamp unit 31 is to be mounted . At this time, the support substrate may include a material such as a metal, a semiconductor, a ceramic, or a polymer.

The first lamp unit 31 may emit light to the outside through the grill unit 20 and may be a light having a wavelength of one of ultraviolet rays, visible rays, and infrared rays because the emitted light is to attract insects. For example, the first lamp unit 31 may emit ultraviolet light, and may have a wavelength band of about 200 nm to 400 nm.

Herein, it is reported that the insect attracting wavelength is, for example, light of a wavelength of about 340 nm to 575 nm for flies and brownflies, and light of about 366 nm for moths and mosquitoes. In addition, in the case of other general pests, it is reported that light of a wavelength of about 340 nm to 380 nm is relatively preferred. If necessary, the first lamp unit 31 may emit light in various wavelength bands other than the wavelengths of these bands.

The first lamp unit 31 may include at least one light emitting diode chip or a light emitting diode package on a supporting substrate, and the light emitting diode chip may be a chip on board (COB) type. In an embodiment of the present invention, the first lamp unit 31 may be manufactured to consume less than about 100 mW of power. In addition, the first lamp unit 31 may be arranged in a staggered arrangement or a regular interval at regular intervals, or may be arranged in various ways as required.

The reflection plate 33 is installed around the first lamp unit 31 to reflect the light emitted from the first lamp unit 31. 2, the first lamp unit 31 is formed to have a length in one direction so that the reflector 33 is spaced apart from the first lamp unit 31 and is spaced apart from the first lamp unit 31 As shown in FIG. That is, the light emitted from the first lamp unit 31 may be reflected by the reflection plate 33 and be emitted to the outside through the grill unit 20. Accordingly, the light emitted from the first lamp unit 31 can be radiated over a wide range, and if necessary, it can be irradiated only within a predetermined range.

The first lamp unit 31 is installed on both sides of the housing 10 so that the reflector 33 is provided on both sides of the housing 10 so as to correspond to the number of the first lamp units 31 .

The second lamp 35 is installed on the inner surface of the housing 10. The second lamp 35 emits human radiation to attract the insects attracted by the first lamp unit 31 to the interior of the housing 10 again. The second ramp 35 may be disposed on the support substrate in the same manner as the first ramp portion 31. The supporting substrate may have a panel shape having a predetermined thickness, width and length, or may be a printed circuit board having an integrated circuit or wiring therein. Further, the supporting substrate may include a material such as a metal, a semiconductor, a ceramic, and a polymer.

The second lamp 35 may include at least one or more CoB type light emitting diode chips or light emitting diode packages mounted on the supporting substrate. And the second lamp 35 can be made to consume less than about 1000 mW of power. Like the first lamp unit 31, a plurality of light emitting diode chips may be staggered in a zigzag shape or may be regularly arranged at regular intervals, or may be arranged in various ways as required.

Similarly to the first lamp unit 31, the second lamp 35 may emit light having a wavelength of one of ultraviolet rays, visible rays, and infrared rays. More preferably, the second lamp 35 can emit ultraviolet rays and emit ultraviolet rays in a wavelength band of about 300 nm to 400 nm. The second lamp 35 may be configured to emit light having a larger light amount than that of the first lamp unit 31. Since the amount of light of the second lamp 35 is larger than that of the first lamp unit 31, insects attracted by the first lamp unit 31 are attracted to the inside of the housing 10 by the second lamp 35 . That is, the insect is primarily attracted by the first ramp portion 31, flows into the housing 10 through the grill portion 20, is secondarily attracted by the second ramp 35, ) To the inside.

Here, a plurality of second lamps 35 may be provided on both sides of the adhesive sheet 40, and may be installed to surround the adhesive sheet 40 if necessary. In addition, a power stabilizer may be additionally provided as needed to supply a stable power source to the second lamp 35, thereby preventing a short circuit from occurring.

The first lamp unit 31 and the second lamp unit 35 may be covered with a light-transmissible cover at the upper part in a state where the light-emitting diode chip or the light-emitting diode package is arranged. The light-transmissive cover functions to protect the light emitting diode chip and the light emitting diode package included in the first and second lamps 31 and 35, and may be formed in various shapes as necessary. The light-transmissive cover may serve as a lens for diffusing the light emitted from the first lamp unit 31 or the second lamp 35 or converging light in a predetermined direction. Accordingly, the light-transmissive cover may include glass, quartz, light-transmitting polymer, or the like.

The adhesive sheet 40 is provided on the inner surface of the housing 10 and captures insects that have flowed into the housing 10. The adhesive sheet 40 may have a plurality of sub-sheets stacked in the thickness direction, each sub-sheet including a first surface to which the adhesive material is applied and a second surface to the backside of the first surface to which the adhesive material is not applied do. And an anti-adhesion layer may be applied to the second surface to prevent excessive adhesion when the second surface is in contact with the first surface of the other sub-sheet. That is, since the plurality of sub sheets are provided in an overlapped state, the user can remove the entrapped insects by removing one sub sheet.

The adhesive sheet 40 can be fixed to the housing 10 by various methods such as fins, magnets, adhesives, and adhesive films.

The driving unit 50 is provided on one side of the first lamp unit 31 to adjust the direction of the first lamp unit 31. That is, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the driving unit 50 may operate to rotate the first lamp unit 31 about the longitudinal axis. That is, the driving unit 50 includes a motor, a gear, and the like so that the first lamp unit 31 can rotate based on the rotation axis. At this time, the first lamp unit 31 can be rotated within a range in which the light emitted from the first lamp unit 31 does not exceed the range of the grill unit 20. In other words, the first lamp unit 31 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise with respect to the rotation axis within the range of the grill unit 20, and the irradiation range of the light emitted from the first lamp unit 31, Can be rotated within a range not facing the inside of the casing (10).

The operation of the driving unit 50 can be controlled through the control of the controller 70, and the rotating operation can be performed regularly or irregularly.

Specifically, the driving unit 50 is connected to the supporting substrate on which the light emitting diode of the first lamp unit 31 or the light emitting diode package is disposed and rotates the supporting substrate or is connected to the reflecting plate 33 to rotate the reflecting plate 33 . The first lamp unit 31 is provided so that the emitted light is reflected by the reflection plate 33 and can be radiated in a predetermined direction. Accordingly, the driving unit 50 includes the support substrate and the reflection plate (33) can be rotated simultaneously.

At this time, as described above, the driving unit 50 is provided in a number corresponding to the first lamp unit 31 so that the first lamp units 31 are rotated. Accordingly, the driving unit 50 can be driven independently of each other under the control of the controller 70. That is, the directions of light irradiation can be changed independently of the two first lamp units 31 installed on both sides of the capturing device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

A plurality of sensing portions 60 may be provided on both sides of the housing 10. In the embodiment of the present invention, the sensing unit 60 is disposed adjacent to the driving unit 50 on both sides of the housing 10, but the mounting position of the sensing unit 60 may be changed as needed.

The sensing unit 60 is for sensing the position of an insect, and may be a sensor for sensing the direction of the insect in the vicinity of the sensing unit. For example, the sensing unit 60 may be an operation sensor that senses the movement of insects in the vicinity. In addition, the sensing unit 60 includes a plurality of sensors and the like, and when an insect is sensed by each sensor, the sensing unit 60 transmits the insignificant signal to the control unit 70.

In addition, the sensing unit 60 may be configured such that the minimum power is applied even when power is not applied to other components (e.g., the first lamp unit 31, the second lamp 35, the driver 50, etc.) Insects can be detected. When a movement of an insect is detected in a state where a minimum power source is detected, the signal is transmitted to the control unit 70.

The control unit 70 controls the first lamp unit 31, the second lamp 35, the driving unit 50, and the sensing unit 60, respectively. The control of the first lamp unit 31 and the second lamp 35 can control the power on / off setting. If necessary, the first lamp unit 31 and the second lamp 35 may control the amount of light. Thus, the on / off control of the first lamp unit 31 and the second lamp 35 can be controlled over time. The control over time can be controlled such that the first lamp unit 31 and the second lamp 35 are turned off during the daytime and turned on during the nighttime. Alternatively, the first lamp unit 31 and the second lamp 35 may be turned on for a predetermined time, and then the first lamp unit 31 and the second lamp 35 may be turned off for a predetermined time.

If the illuminance sensor is included in the sensing unit 60, on / off of the first lamp unit 31 and the second lamp 35 can be controlled according to the amount of light sensed by the illuminance sensor.

The control unit 70 may control the driving unit 50 and may control the driving unit 50 according to a signal detected by the sensing unit 60 or the driving unit 50 may operate regularly. As described above, the driving unit 50 can be controlled according to the signal detected by the sensing unit 60. That is, when a plurality of motion sensors are included in the sensing unit 60 and the direction of the insect is sensed by the motion sensor, the driving unit 50 is controlled such that light is emitted in a direction in which the first lamp unit 31 is sensed .

In this case, when the sensing unit 60 includes a plurality of motion sensors, the controller 70 determines that there are a large number of insects in the direction of the motion sensor in which a large number of signals are detected from the plurality of motion sensors, The driving unit 50 can be controlled so that the light irradiated from the first lamp unit 31 is irradiated. Accordingly, the first lamp unit 31 having a directivity irradiates light in a specific direction, so that insects around the trap apparatus can be effectively trapped.

As described above, even if the first lamp unit 31 and the second lamp 35 are turned off according to time or the like, the minimum amount of power is supplied to the sensing unit 60, The control unit 70 turns on the first lamp unit 31 and the second lamp unit 35. In this case, The control unit 70 may control the driving unit 50 so that the light of the first lamp unit 31 is irradiated in the sensed direction.
