Description

Insect trap
Technical field
Of the present inventionly relate to a kind of common light fixture or insect trap of wall lamp of being identified as.This insect trap especially is applied to diet mechanism.
Background technology
Known ground uses ultraviolet (" UV ") light as with the means of insect attractant in the trap in the art.UV only has the electromagnetic radiation of a kind of form of the wavelength between 100-400 nanometer (" nm ") greatly.Although human eye can not detect ultraviolet light, comprise such as some animals of many insects of honeybee and fly and can see UV light.UV light is subdivided into three bandwidth: UV-A, UV-B and UV-C.UV-C is called as extreme ultraviolet light sometimes and it is characterized in that the wavelength of 100-280nm.UV-B is called as ultraviolet light sometimes and has the wavelength between 280-315nm.UV-A is especially relevant with the present invention, is called as black light sometimes and has the wavelength between 315-400nm.The light that usually is called as " half-light ", " black light " or " black light sources " all produces UV-A light.
Exist multiple about UV-A light why to the attractive theory of insect.Under their nature, insect will be looked for food and/or search for food source in the vegetation that is arranged in shade and dark.The mode of leaving this environment is to seek especially UV light of light, and this is because a UV component of sunshine only.When insect when open space is flown in vegetation inside, their seek bright light slit or luminous intensity gradual change (graduation).In addition, some flowers, mushroom and reflection liquid UV-A light.Insect is considered to UV-A light and food place, mating opportunity and potential laying eggs are a little linked together.Therefore, UV-A is considered to the key component of insect vision.
Observed multiple factor for the effect (that is, capture rate and caste) of luminous insect trap exist size, bulb that clear and definite influence, this factor comprise bulb brightness, UV emitting area towards, insect trap position, flicker frequency and wavelength.Although there is following situation usually really, the insect trap that promptly is combined with brighter bulb will have bigger capture rate, and multiple factor must be weighed by manufacturer when selecting bulb brightness, and for example the control about radiation irradiation limits.The insect trap position also is relevant, and it is placed near the window if this is, then contrast (copeting) UV light source for example exterior light can make capture rate minimum.In addition, insect trap will be placed on the place that insect will go to usually ideally; For example, insect trap preferably separates with the roof.Also observe, along with the luminous intensity increase and when existing some background luminescences to spend, to the attraction increase of insect.In other words, when emission comprises the regional UV light pattern (pattern) of high-strength light and LOIHT, can have better insect response.
Further observe, its peak value is in the scope of 345-375nm, preferably provide the response of optimum insect at the UV of the wavelength that is slightly smaller than 360nm light source.The selection of this most optimum wavelengths is based on the corresponding positive research of the peak value of various insects.For example, housefly has the UV peak response at 340-350nm.Honeybee has the UV peak response at 336nm.Fruit bat has the UV peak response 345 with the 375nm place.Although continuation is studied the spectral response of the insect of different plant species; But go out from the example deducibility that provides; Dipteral insect has similar optical resolution, and emission causes bigger response less than the UV light source of the light of 360nm in such biology.
At last, observe, when UV-A light towards hope do not have insect the zone rather than the wall place be similar to some one type of prior art syringe the time, can realize the capture rate that increases.Can believe, and make UV-A illumination, make UV-A light outward can imitate the outlet capable of using of dense vegetation better to the assembly wall surface opposite.When insect when open space is flown in vegetation inside, they do not see big UV light curtain, but have seen the light in the gap between the blade that varies in size.
The UV-A light that utilizes that has been found that prior art comprises the many characteristics in these characteristics that improve effect as the device difficult of induction light when the device that can be accepted well by the consumer is provided.Utilize the insect trap of UV-A light usually to be used for diet mechanism, client does not hope to see the bulb of exposure in diet mechanism, says nothing of insect trap, and expects that this insect trap can make that client is unable to lift appetite.
