1 Application filed January 18, 1915. Serial No. 2,924.
' i2 (lZZ 10720221 it 222 (13 concern Be it known thatI, JOHN F. Ln BARON,
citizen of the Lnited States, residing at sect- Catcher,
specification. :The device forming the subject matter of Chardon, in the county of Geauga and State of 01110, have mvented a new and useful In- .of which the following is a this application is adapted to be employed for killing, stupifying and collecting insects.
. One object of the invention is to provide a device of'the type indicated. in "which a blower may be operated in one direction to expel poison and then be operated in a reverse direction to suck in the poisoned insects.
It iswithin the scope of the inventionto improve generally and to enhance the utility of devices of that type to which the present invention appertains.
'ith the above and other objects in View which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and 1n th'e details of construction hereinafter described ,and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed can be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the .drawing :Figure 1 shows the invention in vertical longitudinal section; Fig. 2 is a top plan, the cover of the casing being removed; Fig. 3 is an elevation delineating a modified form of nozzle; F ig. 4 is i a bottom plan of the suction head; Fig. 5
is a vertical section of the suction head; Fig. .(5 is an elevation showing a modified form of the invention.
In carrying out the present invention there is provided a casingl of any desired form. the same in the present instance beingshown as of bo1-like construction and provided with a suitable carrying strap or bail 29, or with other means of support and transport. The casing 1 may be equipped with a lid 2 held'in place by means of hinges 3.
Located within thecasmg 1 and preferably secured to one side wall thereof is a motor 4. The motor 4 may be operated in any desired manner. The shaf tl5 of the motor 1 merges into or is opcratively connected with the shaft 6 of a combined blower and suction de ice 7 which may be upheld upon one of the side walls of the casing 1.
,wall of the casing 1 is- Branched ofi dinarily located outside of the casing 1, is
The numeral 8 indicates any suitable mechanism whereby the direction of rotation of the motor shaft 5, and consequently the direction of rotation may be reversed.
Projecting from the blower and suction device 7 and prolonged through one end a primary pipe 9 equipped with a valve 10. Attached to the exposed end of the primary pipe 9 is a flexible tube 15 of any desired length, the same being equipped with a flaring section head from the pipe 9 and ora pipe 11 provided with a valve 12, there being a foraminous receptacle ll connected with the end of the branch pipe 11.
Projecting from the combined blower and suction device 7 is a secondary pipe 17 which passes outside of'the casing'l. Assembled with the exposed end of the secondary pipe 17 is a flexible tube 18 of anydesiredlength, the same being connected as shown at 33 with a tube or neck 32 which, in its turn, merges into the body portion of a suction head 19. The neck or tube 32 is stiff,
and can be held and pointed in any direction with facility, the tube 18 being yieldable so that the head 19 may be inverted if desired. Viewed in bottom plan, the head 19 is of flat-iron shape and is tapered at one end as shownat 31. A removable frame 31 is connected by means of removable uprights 35 with the part 30 of the suction head. Hemovable screens 36 of large mesh extend across the suction head, the screens being removable so that the device may be adapted to handle jcock'roaches, locusts and other large insects Located within the casing l and ordinarily secured to one wall thereof is a con- .tainer 20 having a reduced mouth 21, com
municating with the pipe 17 ,the mouth 21 being deflected in the direction of the draft of air through the pipe 17, so as to tend to create a vacuum or a partial vacuum inthe container 20, thereby drawing outwardly,
the contents of the container indicated at 27, it being obvious that if the part 22 stood at right angles -to the pipe 17, the air passing through the pipe 17 might tend to flow upwardly, displacing the contents 27 of the container 20. The outlet or mouth 21 is controlled by a valve 22 of any desired sort, in the present instance shown as provided with a tapered top. It has been presupof theblower shaft 6 posed that the material in the container 20' 1 is a dry powder, but if a liquid. poison is used, the shape of the valve 22 of course will be changed. The valve 22 may beoperated through'the medium of a rod 23 mounted to reciprocate in a spider 2 t located within the container 20. The lid 2 may be provided with a slot 25 adapted toreceive the rod 23 and the lid maybe equipped with an open ingQG adapted to receive the puslrlnitton- 8 or like device whereby the direction of P- tation oi the shaft is reversed.
In practical operation, the container is I filled with any suitable substance indicated at 2'7, which, when blown through the pipe 18, will kill or stupefy flies or other insects. At this point it may be statedthat when the ('meac ZectuZurius and like insects are to be dealt with, a tapered nozzle 28, shown in tainer 20 may flow slowly into the pipe 17.
lasses or any other substance which will at, ,tract insects, the insects entering the head 'Then. air charged with the poisonous material 27 is blown out through the pipe 1 and through the discharge head 19, insects in this manner being killed or stupefie-d.
Then the valve 10 is closed and the valve 12 is opened, the direction of rotation of the shaft 5. being; reversed through'the medium of the mechanismindicated at 8. Then a suction will be created through the pipe 18, insects previously killed or stupefied being drawn through the pipe 18 .andbeing' forced outwardly through the pipe 9 ll into the 'foraminous receptacle 14 in which they will accumulate. During. the operation which consists in sucking up the killed or stu'pefied insects, the valve '22 isina closed position.
The screens 36 may be smeared with mo- 19 when the same is inverted and is disposed bottom uppermost, as-shown in Fig. i. Then. when the blower is started. the insects will be sucked through the machine in the manner hereinbefore specified. Owing to the tapered form of the head. indicated at 31, thehead maybe slid along a table or the like and it is ,to benoted that the tapered A form of the head serves to increase the draft throughthe head. Further, owing to the shape of the head, the point 31 may be i11 serted into angles and corners where flies or other insects might take refuge. The
the position shown in Fig. 1, so thatits 'may be collected in the head, the same actthe primary pipe: a branch communicating with the primary pipe: 'a valve in the head 19, being broader than the diameter of the pipe or neck 32 obviously increases the 'efiective working area of the device.-
If desired, the head may be reversed from mouth isupwardly disposed. Then, when a suction is created in the pipe 18 and at; tendant parts, flies or other insects which have been poisoned or rendered inactive ing as a collecting dish 01; receptacle.
.The structure may be mounted on a tripod T, if desired.
Having thus described the what is claimed is 1 1. In a device of the class described. a moto'; a combined blower and suction device operatively connected with the motor: primary and secondary pipes projecting from the blower; aioraminous receptacle into which the primary pipe discharges: a poison receptacle discharging into the secondary pipe: and, means for reversing the motor.
2. In a device of the class described. a motor; a combined blower and suction device operatively connected with the motor; means for reversing the motor: a primary. pipe projecting from the blower; a valve in invention,
branch; a foraminous receptacle into which the branchdischarges; a secondary pipe projecting from the blower; and a poison receptacle discharging into the secondary pipe.
3. In a d'ev'ce of the class described. a combined blower and suction device: a combined intake and outlet member in communication with the blower and suction'device; a foraminous receptacle in communication with the blower and suction device: means for discharging poison into the intake and outlet member at the will of an operator; and means for reversing: the blower and suction device 4. In a device of the class described. a combined blower and suction deviccz means for IGYGISlIIfQ tllQ blower and suction device: opposed pipes projecting from the blower and suction device: and means for dischargin; poison into one of said pipes at the will of an operator.
