RU61946U1 - RODENTICIDE BLOCK - Google Patents

Abstract

The utility model relates to devices for the control of mouse rodents and can be used both for the deratization of premises and in agriculture. According to a utility model, in a rodenticidal block made in the form of a bar, plate or granule containing a supporting base and an active active element, the supporting base is made of thermoplastic in the supporting base, cavities are formed along its volume, while the active active element is placed in these cavities. As a result, a rodenticidal block is created, which is more attractive for mouse-like rodents and has a more solid and reliable design, which reduces the possibility of toxic substances entering the environment.

Description

The utility model relates to devices for controlling mouse-like rodents and can be used both for the deratization of premises and in agriculture.

There are various devices for combating mouse rodents, for example, a trap, the cavity of which contains a channel with an opening for the passage of rodents. The trap is made of wire in the form of an oblong cell, in which there are many longitudinal rods with pointed inner ends that converge to each other, which allows the rodent to enter the trap, but does not allow it to exit it, US 2252812.

The device, like any trap, is ineffective, since it can contain only one rodent. The device is inconvenient in operation, as it requires constant monitoring and periodic extraction of rodents from the trap.

Devices representing a metal case with a cover with holes for the passage of rodents are more effective. In the case is a pallet for a rodenticidal agent, made with the possibility of its removal and return to its original place, US 4026064. The device is quite effective and safe, but requires

additional costs of metal, as well as continuous replenishment of rodenticidal funds in the pallet.

Rodenticidal blocks, performed, as a rule, in the form of whetstones or granules are more effective for combating mouse-like rodents.

Known rodenticidal blocks made in the form of a bar, plate or granule containing a supporting base of wax or paraffin and dispersed actively distributed element in it, WO 9301712.

This technical solution was made as a prototype of this utility model.

The disadvantage of the prototype is the fact that at temperatures above + 25 ° C there is a softening of the base, deformation of the block, exposure of the active element. Under conditions of prolonged contact with water, a violation of the structure of the block also occurs, which leads to the ingress of an active element into the environment. In addition, the mechanical strength of the blocks is small and corresponds to the low strength of wax, paraffin, which is a serious danger in case of unforeseen destruction due to mechanical stress. It should be noted that the incisors of synanthropic mouse-like, like all rodents, grow throughout life. The growth rate reaches 1 mm per day. This feature makes animals bite hard objects for grinding most of their lives.

incisors. We found that, under all equal conditions, the most attractive are rodenticidal blocks that do not lose their hardness under the influence of moisture, temperature and other components of the environment. Due to the fact that the blocks, the design of which contains a base made of paraffin or wax, are not solid enough, they are not very attractive for rodents.

The present utility model is based on the solution of the task of creating a rodenticidal block, which would be more attractive to mouse rodents and have a more solid and reliable design, which would reduce the possibility of toxic substances entering the environment.

According to a utility model, in a rodenticidal block made in the form of a bar, plate or granule containing a supporting base and an active active element, the supporting base is made of thermoplastic in the supporting base, cavities are formed along its volume, while the active active element is placed in these cavities.

The applicant has not identified sources containing information on technical solutions identical to this utility model, which allows us to conclude that it meets the criterion of "novelty."

The implementation of the distinguishing features of the utility model provides an important technical result, which consists in the fact that the design of the rodenticidal block acquires high mechanical strength, moisture resistance, the ability to maintain shape (not soften) when

elevated ambient temperatures (up to 60 ° C). A significant increase in the hardness of the block is very attractive for rodents and, on the contrary, complicates or completely prevents cracking by pets. In contrast to the known analogues, the possibility of an actively acting (poisonous) substance entering the environment from the rodenticidal block is substantially reduced, practically to a minimum.

The essence of the utility model is illustrated in the drawing, which shows:

figure 1 - rodenticidal block, made in the form of a bar, axonometry;

figure 2 is a section aa in figure 1;

figure 3 is a fragment of a section aa on an enlarged scale;

figure 4 is a rodenticide block in the form of a cylindrical granule, side view;

figure 5 is a section bB in figure 4.

In a specific example, the carrier base of block 1 is made of high strength polyethylene; it can also be made of polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polystyrene, polyamide, copolymer, ethylene and vinyl acetate (Sovilen 11104-030).

At the base 1, cavities 2 are formed over its entire volume, in which an active element (ADE) 3 is placed 3. In particular, diphietalion or bromodialon can be placed in cavities 2. ADE 3 may

additionally include attractant for rodents and repellent for humans and pets.

The manufacture of a rodenticidal block with the formation of cavities 2 in the base 1 and placement of ADE 3 in them can be carried out by any known method, for example, by injection molding or by pressing. It is possible to make the basis of separate layers. In this case, in each layer, except the outer, holes are made, the layers are alternately interconnected, for example, glued, while in the process of joining the holes in the layers are filled with a rodenticidal element. This technology of manufacturing a rodenticidal block eliminates the complex and expensive foundry and press equipment.

Rodenticidal blocks are laid out in the habitats of rodents. Unlike the prototype, the block does not contain any auxiliary metal containers, trays for bait. Actually, the container is the supporting base of the block itself. Thus, the material consumption of the device is reduced to a minimum.

The claimed design of the block has high mechanical strength, moisture resistance, is able to maintain shape at elevated ambient temperatures. Due to the hardness of the block, its attractiveness to mouse rodents increases; the possibility of mechanical destruction of the block is reduced to a minimum.
