DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0027] Below, a detailed description of the present invention is given with reference to the figures.
[0028] According to the present invention, the rotating support for insect trap comprises two main pieces, which are coupled to the means of use and support for the functioning of the invention, in this context, we observe in FIGS. 1 to 4 a support and rotation element 10 which is made of a resistant material in order to withstand the load of the insect trap and have a sufficiently high resistance in order to function in a rotating manner with no further complications, in this respect, we have that the support and rotation element 10 may be made of plastic materials, recycled plastics, metals, non-metal materials and their combinations, with a preference for plastic materials of higher resistance to friction, the support and rotation element 10, is a solid cylindrical longitudinal piece with a cylindric base 12, this support and rotation element shall have a top part and a bottom surface on its base 16 of cylindrical shape, with a bigger diameter of the base 12 in comparison with the cylindrical body 11 of the support and rotation element 10, thereby establishing the longitudinal edges of the support and rotation element 10.
[0029] In FIGS. 1 to 3, you may observe the support hole 13, which is located in the top part of the cylindrical body 11, said hole or passage crosses longitudinally and horizontally through the cylindrical body 11, and this passage has the function of hosting the means to sustain the insect trap, this hole has a circular shape, as observed in FIGS. 1 to 3, but it may have a quadrangular, oval, or polyhedral shape; thus, allowing the entry of the means of support.
[0030] Additionally, said cylindric body 11 has an additional support hole or passage 14, which, just as support hole 13 is a hole that crosses longitudinally and horizontally through the cylindrical body, located in the lower part of support hole 13, which shall allow the storage of a means of signaling for the insect trap, in this additional support hole 14, a card holder, with warnings related to the contents of the insect trap or signaling methods, according to the use of the insect trap, additionally, the hole shows a circular shape, as seen in FIGS. 1 to 3, but said hole may have a quadrangular, oval or polyhedral shape; thus, allowing the entry of means to display signals or any intended information.
[0031] In FIG. 2 we have that the support and rotation element 10, has a top surface of the base 15 and a bottom surface of the base 16, said top surface of the base 15 shall have the function of supporting and allowing the rotation with the coupling element 20, which is observed in FIG. 5, the detail of said interaction is described in detail below, continuing, said base 12 for the support and rotation element 10 must be sufficiently thick and resistant in order to allow the support and rotation of the insect trap 50, with no excessive wearing of said parts.
[0032] In FIG. 3, you may observe the placement of holes 13 and 14, in which, between said holes, with an upper section 17 of the cylindrical body, which defines the part of the upper support hole 13; thus, having the intermediate section 18, which defines the lower part of the upper support hole, and the upper part of the additional hole 14, and finally we have base section 19, which defines the inferior part of additional support hole 13, and its lower part is attached to the base 12 of the support and rotation element.
[0033] FIG. 4 shows the main top view of the support and rotation element 10, showing the diameter of the cylindrical body 11, which has smaller diameter than the diameter of the base 12, said difference in diameters is essential for the assembly of the rotating support 30 showed in FIGS. 7 to 10, mainly.
[0034] Continuing with the description of the elements that make up the rotating support 30, we have the second element, which has the function of coupling the insect trap 50, which shall be detailed below, and the support and rotation element 10; in FIGS. 5 and 6, the coupling element 20 can be observed, being a longitudinal vertical cylinder, with an external surface 22, having two holes in its central part, in FIG. 5, the internal passage 21 of the coupling element 20 can be observed, which has a bigger than the cylindrical body 11, of the support and rotation element, said internal passage is formed from a hole that longitudinally crosses the entirety of the coupling element 20, and its base has a hole, which slightly or equal to the measurement of the coupling support 44, observed in FIG. 13, which shall be detailed below, said hole in the base of the coupling element 20, does not cross the entirety of said element; therefore, its upper part is where the internal passage 21 is found, forming a cover.
[0035] In FIGS. 7 to 10, the present invention has a rotating support 30, said figures show the attachment of the support and rotation element and the coupling element 20, additionally, the invention has a support ring 31, which is introduced through the additional 14, FIGS. 8 and 9 show in detail the arrangement of the support ring 31 in the additional hole 14; thereby observing with clarity the placement of support hole 13, both holes protrude from the coupling element, when both of them are attached, as observed in said figures, it is worth noting that the support ring 31 for cardholders help to keep all support and rotation pieces together, as well as the coupling element, when said pieces had not been mounted on the trap yet; thus preventing the loss of pieces, being ready to be attached to the traps.
[0036] FIG. 10 shows the separation 32, between the support and rotation element 10 and the coupling element 20, said separation is essential 32 in said pieces, as said point generates the rotation between both pieces, therefore, the coupling of said pieces must not be adjusted or forced; therefore, a separation 32 must exist, thus achieving the adequate function of both pieces, in order to obtain the best results.
[0037] FIGS. 11 and 12 show the rotating support 30 attached to a cover 41 for the insect trap 50, as well as the support ring 31 for cardholders, with the possibility of entering a support hook 42 (not displayed) which is inserted in the support hole 13 or any other means that is able to carry out the function of holding in an adequate manner the insect trap, it is worth mentioning that the present invention may have a support for the invention, achieved by directly placing in the support hole 13, a hook, rope, cable, or any other means to achieve the adequate support of the invention; at the same time, in the present invention the rotating support 30 is placed in the upper part of the cover 43 of the rotating support with cover 40.
[0038] FIG. 13 shows the insect trap 50, which has a coupling support 44 for an insect trap, in which said support 44 has a cylindrical shape, with a circular higher part, which is smaller than the base, this feature is adequate in order to carry out an optimal coupling of the rotating support 30, however, it is worth mentioning that the coupling support 44, may show any configuration, which may be adequate for the coupling with the rotating support 30, it is worth mentioning that the rotating support 30 has been specifically designed to support insect traps and provide optimum functionality for said traps.
[0039] FIG. 14 shows the internal part of the rotating support 30, which shows the coupling element 20 connected to the coupling support 44 tightly, thus achieving a strong coupling, which shall be capable of holding the insect trap 50, said attachment may be achieved mechanically by joining said pieces or by using glue, pouring a solution between these two pieces, based on experience, in order to achieve a tighter junction between the rotating support and the trap, the use of material with equal properties is preferred, preferring the use of plastics; thus achieving a fixed junction between both pieces, the support and rotation element 10 is observed, which is in contact with the inner surface of the upper part 22, without touching the walls of the cylindrical body 11, which allows having two main elements of the present invention, without a fixed coupling between said elements, thus allowing free rotation between both pieces and consequently, preventing any type of stagnation or knots in the hook when the insect trap 50 is hanged by means of a hook, rope, wire, cable or any other means capable of supporting the insect trap.
[0040] It is worth mentioning that the cover 41 assembled with the placement of the support and rotation element, the coupling element 20 and the support ring for identification cards 31, may be stacked on top of the other cover 41, already assembled; thus, being stackable and allowing a reduction in space, improving transportation.
