11700846 · 2023-07-18 ·

Insecticide dispensing devices and methods of the present technology provide for the prolonged release of insecticide for the eradication of insect populations. Insecticide dispensing devices include an attractive toxic sugar bait, and have a housing configured with at least one aperture to allow a gaseous compound to exit the internal cavity and sized to allow entry of a target insect into the internal cavity. Methods of insecticide dispensing include activating the attractive toxic sugar bait in the device, and placing the activated device in an area where insects are present.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FUMIGATING A VESSEL WITH EXHAUST
20230219679 · 2023-07-13 ·

An exhaust conduit for a cargo vessel. The exhaust conduit is a flexible conduit with a first upstream opening adapted to engage with an exhaust structure and a second downstream opening for exhausted air. The exhaust conduit is inflatable due to the passage of exhausted air and the downstream opening is of smaller cross-sectional area than the upstream opening. The downstream opening is of adjustable cross-sectional area. In a system for fumigating a RORO vessel, the inflatable exhaust is inflatable to a height exceeding the height of the accomodation block. In a method of fumigating a RORO vessel, the method includes providing a temporary flexible exhaust for exhausting fumigant from the cargo area, and/or providing an inflatable exhaust for exhausting fumigant from the cargo area.

RIGID FUMIGANT BARRIER FOR SHIPPING CONTAINER DOOR

A lightweight barrier insert door is attached to an enclosure, such as a shipping container that holds a product to be fumigated, such as during transport of the product to a new location. The barrier insert door fits within the doorway of the container to provide a sealed barrier to mitigate leakage of a fumigant from the interior of the container. The barrier also includes air intake ports to maintain the structural integrity of the container and to provide ambient air to the interior. Additional ports allow for connection for fumigant entry, monitoring, and/or an exhaust hose to be connected to or through the barrier for the fumigation process. The barrier can be height adjustable to account for shipping containers of various sizes and can be connected with fumigant exhaust and release systems for the safe release thereof.

MOBILE STATION FOR CARRYING OUT AERIAL SPRAYING OPERATIONS BY MEANS OF UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES
20220410790 · 2022-12-29 ·

Mobile station to carry out aerial spraying operations for large surfaces by means of drones which comprises at least one of a machine room comprising at least one electricity generator and an energy backup system; at least one compartment for the storage and transport of drones; a mixing tank connected to a water storage tank; a loading and unloading equipment movable on at least one rail; a lifting equipment arranged outside and configured to lift an operator; a battery charging and transport compartment for drones, a lighting system, a resting place incorporated into the system, multiple hermetic and washable containers for the transport of chemical products, dispensers, chemical waste, personal protection elements, spill containment elements (sand, non-sparking shovels, swabs), clean clothes, dirty clothes, trash.

WORK MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
20220400599 · 2022-12-22 ·

A work management system includes an estimation unit that estimates a performed work amount based on a position of a portion of a work object to which a fluid is estimated to be blown while the work is performed. In addition, the work management system includes a first correction unit that compares a target passing position through which a fluid blowing device passes while the work is performed with a position of the fluid blowing device to determine whether the fluid blowing device has passed through the target passing position while the work is performed, and executes a first correction process of reducing the work amount estimated by the estimation unit when it is determined that the fluid blowing device has not passed through the target passing position.

NON-CHEMICAL SPRAY DEVICE FOR INSECTS, PESTS AND GERMS
20220369614 · 2022-11-24 ·

The present invention relates to a portable insect and pest control and spray device. The device uses a non-chemical germicidal light for killing insects and pests. The device comprises a spray nozzle for scattering insects, while a vacuum attachment sucks and removes the dead insects and pests. A spray wand of the device can be positioned in hidden and hard-to-reach areas for scattering and killing insects and pests. Various types of germicidal lights such as ultraviolet light, blue light or white light are used. The device allows users to target a specific area with increased precision, including those areas that are often concealed or inaccessible.
