An anti-pest device for fruit trees and the like that prevents trees from being affected by crawling insect pests includes a rectangular sheet of electrical insulating material, which can adopt the shape of an inverted truncated cone or a cylindrical configuration around the trunk of the tree; a band of low-density foam under the sheet that adapts to the physiognomy of the bark, and deforms with the growth of the trunk, whereas the sheet includes a sector that is superimposed thereon and slides on it to adapt to said growth; a pair of parallel conducting wires, separated a distance according to the size of the body of the insect to be exterminated, subjected to a high difference in electrical potential by means of a power supply circuit, such that when an insect tries to get past them, it is automatically electrocuted.

Device, system and method for trapping and killing marine organisms
11700838 · 2023-07-18 · ·

A device (10) for trapping and killing marine organisms (14) such as animal plankton, salmon lice and other parasites, comprises a body (12; 12′) configured for submersion in water (15). The body (12; 12′) comprises at least one light source (16) configured and controlled for attracting said marine organisms, and an internal cavity (20) having an opening (20′) for fluid communication with at least a portion of the water. The light sources (16) are arranged inside the cavity (20) and arranged and controlled to emit light waves through said opening and into at least a portion of the water. At least one positive electrode (24; 24′; 24″; 32) is arranged in the cavity and electrically connected to a low-voltage power source (26; 27; 30), and at least one negative electrode (15a) is arranged in the water and electrically connected to said power source (26; 27; 30). The invented device generates, by means of electrolysis with the water (15), chlorine gas (21) at or in a region near the at least one positive electrode, and the chlorine gas (21) reacts with water inside the cavity to form hypochloric acid and hydrochloric acid (31).

PROJECTILE FOR AN INSECT ZAPPER GUN
20230217913 · 2023-07-13 ·

An electrifiable projectile for an insect zapper gun is capable of killing a target insect at a distance from the user. The projectile includes a pattern of electric wires forming a front-facing conductive contact structure having a breadth sufficient to allow the projectile to intercept an insect when propelled in a forward trajectory toward an insect. When the projectile's pattern of electric wires comes into contact with the target insect, an electric charge on the projectile is transmitted to the insect rendering the insect deceased.

Intelligent Forcipomyia Taiwana Monitoring and Management System

An intelligent Forcipomyia taiwana monitoring and management system comprises: a catching mechanism grabbing a to-be-identified target; a database storing a datum comprising pictures of a flying insect category; a model training module using the pictures to establish a training model; an image capture module shooting an image including the target; an identifying module selecting a first segmented region including the target by using YOLO detection framework technology, extracting a first identification feature from the target, and inputting the feature into the training model for deep learning to identify a flying insect category to which the target belongs and produce an identification result; a counting module recording a number of the target into the database; and a predictive tracking module obtaining a marked object based on the result marked with the target identified in the image, and using a Monte-Carlo category algorithm to track and predict the object.
