    Application field
    [001] The present invention relates to a trap for insects, and more particularly to a trap for insects that collects them when attracted by the decoy light, by suction, by means of an air current generated by a suction fan. . State of the Technique
    [002] Recently, the number of harmful insects has increased, due to changing climatic conditions such as global warming and social policies such as “environmentally friendly”. Harmful insects not only cause damage to agriculture and livestock, but also have a negative influence on people through the transmission of pathogens such as: malaria, dengue, Japanese encephalitis, and the like. Particularly, studies on a mosquito insecticidal method were actively carried out, due to widespread concern about Zika virus (ZIKV) infection.
    [003] Conventional insecticidal methods include: a chemical method of controlling pests using an insecticide; a biological method of pest control using mudfish and the like; a physical method of pest control, using a backlight and carbon dioxide trap that attracts harmful insects to kill them, through the application of high voltage; and a method of environmental pest control, by removing puddles or removing favorable environments for insect larvae. However, the chemical method of pest control can cause secondary contamination. Biological and environmental methods are expensive, time consuming and labor intensive. The physical method, on the other hand, has a problem of inconvenience to the user, due to a complicated configuration of the traps, or due to the use of a high voltage device, offering danger.
    [004] On the other hand, a UV light source is already used for various purposes, such as for medical purposes including sterilization and disinfection, for analysis purposes based on the intensity variation in UV light irradiation, for industrial purposes, such as UV curing, beauty treatment, such as UV tanning, insect collection, identification of counterfeit bills, and the like. Examples of typical UV lamps used as a UV light source include a mercury lamp, an excimer lamp, a deuterium lamp, and the like. However, these typical lamps have problems of high energy consumption and heat generation, short life, and environmental pollution due to the toxic gas contained in the lamps.
    [005] In order to solve the problems of the above-mentioned typical UV light sources, a UV light emitting device (LED) has been highlighted due to the various advantages including low power consumption and no environmental pollution. Thus, some studies are focused on developing an insect trap configured to collect insects using a suction fan after attracting the insects using the decoy light.
    [006] Patent document KR20150124766 - Apparatus of Insect Trap describes a trap for catching insects, comprising: a housing comprising a light source module unit for providing a light source that attracts harmful insects, being disposed in the region top of the carcass; a reflection member for reflecting light produced by the light source module unit and located above it; a ventilation unit installed below the light source module, intended to produce an air flow that drags the insects attracted by the light, installed inside the housing and an insect capture unit for capturing harmful insects, positioned in the lower region of the carcass. This capture unit can be provided with an adhesive material to which the insects are adhered, being possible to remove and replace it through a lateral opening at the base of the carcass. Due to its configuration, the efficiency of this trap in capturing insects is relatively low. In addition, such a trap is not selective, as it captures insects of all sizes, including beneficial ones.
    [007] South Korean patent KR200393447 entitled Pest Catcher (Device Catching Vermin) describes an insect trap comprising a cover, a main body with a motor connected to a suction fan, a control means to control the motor and a capture net. In order to allow both day and night operation, this trap does not use light, but a pheromone installed inside the main body, which is provided with an inclined portion narrowing to the bottom inside the capture net and an entrance of pests. truncated cone type with a means of opening and closing at the bottom to maximize the pest capture rate. The use of pheromone ' allows selecting the type of insect that is attracted and captured, however it is a substance that is spread through the environment and can harm allergic people. Furthermore, the closing means consume a part of the energy of the fan.
    [008] The document KR101349733 whose title is Harmful Insect Grasping Equipment describes a trap provided with a fan that sucks in the insects and directs them to a container that can contain a liquid. To prevent the insects collected from escaping, the entrance to this container is provided with a plate that moves under the pressure of the air in order to allow the insects to pass through. In case the fan stops working, a spring associated with that plate causes it to move, blocking the passage. The means of attracting insects comprise UV light emitters as well as a photocatalytic coating that gives off carbon dioxide under the action of UV light. However, due to the fact that the air stream flows through the periphery of the collector, the suction is less efficient than in the present invention. Furthermore, this trap does not have the means to avoid capturing larger insects, which tend to adhere to the fan blades, impairing its operation.
    [009] It appears, therefore, that a problem commonly found in traps configured to collect insects using a suction fan, after attracting them using a UV LED, is the generation of noise by this fan, due to the fixation of dead insects. to its blades, reducing its efficiency and producing an increase in noise. Yet another problem is the escape of mosquitoes from the insect trap or insufficient aspiration of mosquitoes into the trap, due to difficulty in controlling aspiration fan speed and low aspiration efficiency, or high energy consumption, due to difficulty in controlling a air current generated by the insect trap. Objectives of the Invention
    [010] Embodiments of the present invention are intended to provide an insect trap that is more "eco-friendly", provide a more convenient manufacturing process, and ensure efficiency in attracting and aspiration of insects.

    [037] As described above, despite some of its advantages, such as being “eco-friendly” and harmless to humans, a typical insect trap set up to collect, for example, mosquitoes - using a decoy light and a suction fan, after attracting them - has some problems such as low attracting efficiency, high power consumption and severe noise generation. Therefore, in order to solve the problems of the typical insect trap, the authors of the present invention performed repetitive studies and production tests to develop an “environmentally friendly” insect trap that can maximize the effects on attracting insects, for example, of mosquitoes, and provide better aspiration effects without loss of power, while suppressing noise generation by controlling every component of the insect trap. Detailed Description of FiguresConcretion 1

    [039] With reference to Figures 1 to 3, each component of an insect trap 1000, according to a first embodiment, will be described in detail.
    [040] In order to collect insects after attracting them using UV light, the insect trap 1000, according to one embodiment, includes: a main body 110; an insect passage unit 120 detachably connected to an upper side of the main body 110 which selectively allows insects to pass therethrough; an air collection unit 130 disposed on a lower side of the main body 110; a motor 140 disposed between the air collection unit 130 and the insect passage unit 120; a suction fan 150 disposed between the motor 140 and the air collection unit 130 and rotated by the motor 140; a UV LED installation unit 160 arranged above the insect passage unit 120 and provided with a UV LED module 161; and an insect collection unit 170 detachably attached to an underside of the air collection unit 130 and collecting insects.
    [041] As used herein, insects are not limited to a special type of insect and may refer to various types of winged insects, in particular, mosquitoes.
    [042] Main body 110: Although the main body is not limited to a single shape and a specific material, the main body 110 can have a cylindrical shape in order to receive the suction fan 150 inside and can be formed of a commercially available plastic material, in order to allow indoor or outdoor use of the insect trap for a long period of time, without significantly increasing manufacturing costs. The main body 110 is open at the upper and lower sides thereof to allow a stream of air to pass through the upper and lower sides thereof. The main body 110 has a height of 2 cm to 20 cm, preferably 3 cm to 10 cm.
    [043] With reference to Figures 2 and 3, the insect passage unit 120, the motor 140 and the suction fan 150 are mounted inside the main body 110 from the upper side of the main body 110 to the lower side of the same.
    [044] Figure 4 is a perspective view of the insect passage unit 120 of the insect trap, in accordance with the first embodiment of the present invention.
    [045] Referring to Figure 4, the insect passage unit 120 has an interlaced shape, including a plurality of insect passage holes 121 selectively allowing insects to pass therethrough, and the plurality of insect passage holes 121 selectively allowing insects to pass therethrough, and the plurality of insect passage holes 121 selectively allowing insects to pass therethrough. insects can be defined by circular elements 122 and radial members 123. Specifically, the size of the insect passage holes 121 can be adjusted based on an average size of insects to be collected, and for the insect passage unit 120 with a shape interlaced, as shown in Figure 4, the size of the insect passage holes 121 can be controlled effectively with low manufacturing costs.
    [046] A typical insect trap configured to collect insects by means of a suction fan in the related technique has problems of a short replacement cycle of the insect collection unit due to the collection of certain insects such as butterflies, dragonflies and flies, which have a greater volume of mosquitoes and a negative influence on the ecosystem, due to the collection of not only harmful, but also beneficial insects. In addition, the typical insect trap has problems such as shortening the life of the motor and generating noise from the suction fan due to the attachment of large insects to the suction fan. Accordingly, the authors of the present invention have developed the insect trap 1000 which allows the size of the insect through holes 122 to be controlled so that the insect trap can selectively aspirate insects, including an economically viable insect through unit 120 .
    [047] The various insect passage holes 121 are divided from one another by a plurality of circular elements 122 and radial elements 123 arranged around the center of the insect passage unit 120 and have an arc shape with a central angle of 20°. ° to 40°, and each of the circular elements 122 is separated by a distance of 1.0 cm to 1.5 cm from another adjacent circular element 123. Within these bands, each of the insect through holes 121 may have a area from 100 mm2 to 225 mm2. In this way, the insect through holes 121 allow the selective passage of insects, particularly mosquitoes, through them, while preventing the collection of large insects such as butterflies, dragonflies, flies, and the like for the insect trap 1000, thereby preventing deterioration in motor durability while suppressing suction fan noise generation 150.
    [048] In addition, the suction fan 150 can be controlled such that insects are sucked through a lower portion of the suction fan 150, rather than being connected to the suction fan 150. In a typical insect trap , configured to collect insects through a typical suction fan, the insects are attached to the fan blades and cause an uneven rotation radius of the suction fan, thus causing deterioration in motor life and noise generation. However, when the suction fan rotation speed is reduced in order to prevent insects from being attached to the fan blades, there is a problem of significant reduction in collection efficiency with respect to insects adjacent to the insect trap. That is, since insects tend to stop flying at a wind speed of 0.8 m/s or more and try to escape an air stream at a very high wind speed, the 1000 insect trap, of According to the present invention, it prevents insects from being attached to the fan blades 151 at the same time causing the mosquitoes to stop flying and to be collected there, through a suction air current generated by the suction fan 150.
    [049] For this purpose, the number of fan blades 151 can be from two to six, preferably three or four, and the suction fan 150 can have a rotation speed of 1500 rpm to 2800 rpm, preferably 1800 rpm to 2800 rpm. If the number of fan blades 151 is less than two or the rotation speed of suction fan 150 is less than 1500 rpm, there may be a problem of deterioration of a mosquito collection effect, and if the number of fan blades 151 exceeds six or the rotation speed of the suction fan 150 exceeds 2800 rpm, there is a problem of excessive binding of dead bodies of mosquitoes to the suction fan 151 or noise increase above 38 dBA.
    [050] Fan blades 151 can be rounded in shape with a constant or variable radius of curvature rather than a flat shape, and can be 5mm to 30mm high, from a lower end to a uppermost end of them. The suction fan 150 may have a diameter of from 60 mm to 120 mm, preferably from 80 mm to 110 mm. In some embodiments, the minimum distance between the suction fan 150 and an interior wall of the main body 110 can be controlled to 1 mm to 5 mm in order to minimize noise generation by the suction fan 150, while effectively generating a current. of suction air.
    [051] In addition, a ratio of the vertical distance between the main body 110 for the UV LED mounting unit 160 and the height of the main body 110 can vary from 1:1 to 1:2, and a ratio of vertical distance to from the insect collection unit 170 to the UV LED installation unit 160 to the height of the insect collection unit 170 can vary from 1:0.5 to 1:2. Within these relationships, the insect trap 100 can easily vacuum insects adjacent to the insect trap 1000, preventing the insects from being attached to the suction fan 150.
    [052] Therefore, within these numerical ranges, the insect trap 1000 can control an air current generated between the insect passage unit 120 and the UV LED installation unit 160 by the suction fan 150 to have a speed of 0.5 m/s to 2.5 m/s, preferably 0.6 m/s to 2.5 m/s, more preferably 0.7 m/s to 2.5 m/s, for example 0.7 m/s sa 2.0 m/s, and it can make the insects stop flying and be collected with high efficiency to the insect collection unit 170 without fixing the insects to the suction fan 150, while suppressing the noise generation by the fan suction 150.
    [053] With the structure in which the motor 140 is placed below the insect passage unit 120 and the suction fan 150 is provided to an underside of the motor 140, the insect trap 1000 can considerably reduce the noise generation by the motor 140 and suction fan 150.
    [054] Air collection unit 130: Figures 5 to 10 are views of an air collection unit, according to an embodiment of the present invention.
    [055] Air collection units 130 or 130' are provided for the underside of main body 110, and may include air collection unit ribs 131, side openings of air collection unit 132, and an air collection door. air outlet 133, so that the insects sucked in by the suction fan 150 can be discharged to the insect collection unit 170. The air collection unit 130 has a conical shape, the diameter of which gradually decreases with increasing distance. from the suction fan 150. That is, the air collection unit 130 is preferably conical in shape, in order to allow an air stream generated by the suction fan 150 to flow efficiently to the insect collection unit. 170, arranged on a lower side of the trap without dispersing the air stream, including the side openings of the air collection unit 132 to allow the air stream generated by the suction fan 150 to escape effectively from the air stream. from the insect trap 1000. The side openings of the air collection unit 132 are not limited to a particular shape, and may have a mesh shape, as shown in Figure 10, and the area of the mesh-shaped side openings may be controlled to prevent insects, particularly mosquitoes, from passing through them.
    [056] Consequently, the insect trap 1000, according to the first embodiment, can be configured to collect the insects in the insect collection unit 170, to prevent the insects from escaping the trap 1000, through the air collection unit. 130, when sucked into the trap by the suction fan 150.
    [057] On the other hand, a ratio of the diameter of the air outlet port 133 to the diameter of the suction fan 150 may vary from 1:2 to 1:9, preferably 1:3 to 1:5. Within this ratio range, the insect trap allows easy wind speed control by the 150 suction fan.
    [058] Insect collection unit 170: Figure 6 is a perspective view of an insect collection unit of the insect trap, in accordance with the first embodiment of the present invention, while Figure 11 is a view of an element. insect trap mesh according to the first embodiment of the present invention.
    [059] With reference to Figure 6 and Figure 11, the insect collection unit 170 may include at least one mesh element 171, through which air is discharged to the outside by the suction fan 150. The element mesh 171 may include mesh ribs 172 and mesh openings 173 formed between mesh ribs 172 such that an air stream generated by suction fan 150 is discharged from insect collection unit 170 through the openings of mesh 173. The mesh opening 173 may have a diameter of 1 mm to 3 mm to provide a gentle airflow preventing collected insects from escaping through it.
    [060] Specifically, the insect collection unit 170 may include from one to ten mesh elements 171, for example from three to eight mesh elements, and each of the mesh elements 171 may include 300 to 700 mesh openings 173, preferably 400 to 600 apertures of 173 mesh.
    [061] That is, the insect collection unit 170 allows a stream of air generated by the suction fan 150 to be effectively discharged from the insect trap 1000, wherein the mosquitoes collected in the insect collection unit 170 are dried. and dead.
    [062] UV 160 LED installation unit: Referring to Figures 1 to 3, the UV 160 LED installation unit can have a plate shape. Specifically, the UV LED installation unit 160 may have a similar shape and/or size to the shape and size of the main body 110. For example, in an embodiment where the main body 110 has a circular shape, the LED installation unit UV LED 160 may have a disk shape having a size similar to the size of the main body 110.
    [063] With this structure, the UV LED installation unit 160 restricts the flow of an air stream generated by the suction fan 150 in a defined space between the UV LED installation unit 160 and the main body 110, thus improving the efficiency of generating a suction air stream for the insect trap 1000. As a result, the suction fan 150 does not need to be rotated at high rpm, thus minimizing noise generation.
    [064] In some embodiments, the insect trap may further include a bracket 180 configured to support the UV LED installation unit 160 above the main body 110, while separating the UV LED installation unit 160 from the main body 110 so allowing insects to be sucked into the space between the main body 110 and the UV LED installation unit 160, the latter of which may include a UV LED module 161 and may further include an LED installation unit cover UV 162.
    [065] While the shape and number of supports 180 are not particularly limited, two supports 180 are arranged to face each other in order to minimize the restriction of an insect introduction area by the supports 180 while supporting, forming stably the UV 160 LED installation unit.
    [066] The height of the bracket 180 can be adjusted such that the UV LED installation unit 161 is separated at a distance of 1 cm to 10 cm, preferably 3 cm to 5 cm, from the main body 110 in a direction vertical. Specifically, the height of the bracket can be the same as the separation distance between the UV LED installation unit 161 and the main body 110. If the separation distance between the UV LED installation unit 161 and the main body 110 in the vertical direction is less than 3 cm, the defined space between the UV LED installation unit 160 and the main body 110, in which the insects are vacuumed, becomes too small, thus causing the deterioration of insect collection efficiency. , and if the separation distance between them is greater than 5 cm, the air current generated by the suction fan 150 is not strong enough, thus generating a deterioration in the efficiency of insect collection.
    [067] Thus, when insects are attracted by the UV light and approach the insect trap 1000, the insects are drawn into the space between the main body 110 and the UV LED installation unit 160 by the generated suction air stream. by the suction fan 150, pass through the insect passage unit 120 and the suction fan 150, and finally collected by the insect collection unit 170 arranged under the air collection unit 130.
    [068] Referring to Figure 3, the UV 161 LED module can be mounted on a lower surface of the UV 160 LED installation unit. Specifically, as shown in Figure 3, the cover of the UV 162 LED installation unit is removable. , mounted on an upper side of the UV 160 LED installation unit, is detached from the UV 160 LED installation unit, and the UV 161 LED module is mounted on the UV 160 LED installation unit by inserting the UV 160 LED module. UV 161 LED on the UV 160 LED installation unit from a top side to a lower side of the UV 160 LED installation unit. The UV LED module 161, mounted on the UV LED 160 LED installation unit, can be electrically connected to a power source.
    [069] In the insect trap 1000, according to the first embodiment, the UV LED module 161 can be mounted on the UV LED installation unit 160 such that the light emitted from the UV LED module 161 travels in a horizontal direction with respect to the ground. Insects usually stay at a height of about 1.5 m from the ground for the longest period of time in the flight. Thus, in the structure in which the insect trap 1000 is installed at a height of about 1.5 m from the floor, insects are strongly stimulated by the light emitted from the UV LED module 161 in the horizontal direction in relation to the floor and can be effectively attracted to the 1000 insect trap.
    [070] In addition, as shown in Figure 3, the UV LED installation unit cover 162 is formed on an upper surface thereof with a UV LED installation unit cover 163 to hold the insect trap 1000 to a branch tree and the like, at a height of about 1.5 m when used outdoors.
    [071] The UV 160 LED installation unit includes a UV LED module cover, having a shape corresponding to the UV 161 LED module and mounted on the UV 160 LED installation unit to protect the UV 161 LED module to prevent damage to the UV 161 LED module by dust or external insects. Preferably, the cover of the UV LED module is transparent.
    [072] The UV LED module cover can be manufactured in various shapes so as to act as a lens capable of scattering the light emitted from the UV 161 LED module or collecting the light in a predetermined direction. The UV LED module cover may include, for example, glass, quartz and the like. The UV LED module cover can be formed from a polymer which allows for easier treatment and exhibits better moldability and longer durability than glass and quartz. However, in a polymer molecular structure, a cloud of electrons having a resonance frequency corresponding to UV light is placed around an atomic nucleus in a molecular structure and absorbs light with a wavelength of 400 nm or less (in UV wavelength band), thus causing a significant deterioration in light transmittance, and the polymer itself can be degraded by UV light. Thus, the polymer is not generally used as a material for covering the UV LED module.
    [073] However, since polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) having a monomer ratio of about 80% or more and mainly composed of carbon and hydrogen has a thin electron cloud to provide high UV transmittance , the UV LED module cover can be formed from PMMA.
    [074] Alternatively, as a stable material not reacting with UV light, a fluorine-based polymer can be used as a material for covering the UV LED module. By way of example, taking into account the fact that fluorine-based polymer has lower UV transmittance than quartz or PMMA, it is desirable that the UV LED module cover be formed to have flexibility and a thin thickness. . That is, when using fluorine-based polymer as the material for the UV LED module cover, the UV transmittance of the UV LED module cover is taken into account, and since the Fluorine has lower UV transmittance than quartz or PMMA, the UV transmittance of the UV LED cover module increases with decreasing thickness. However, the thin thickness UV LED module cover can be easily broken due to the fragility of the polymers. Thus, it is desirable that the cover of the UV LED module be formed of a flexible material in order to reduce brittleness.
    [075] Although not shown in Figure 3, a material capable of reflecting UV light emitted from the UV 161 LED module may be bonded to or coated onto a lower surface of the UV 160 LED installation unit. Silver or aluminum may be used as the material capable of reflecting UV light, but not limited to, and may be coated onto the under surface of the UV 160 LED installation unit. The under surface of the UV 160 LED installation unit may further include a round or irregular pattern having a variety of shapes to scatter the light emitted from the UV 161 LED module.
    [076] Referring to Figures 1 to 3, the cover of the UV 162 LED installation unit can be mounted on a top surface of the UV 160 LED installation unit and extends beyond the UV 161 LED installation unit , in the horizontal direction. The material and shape of the cover of the UV 162 LED installation unit can be the same as that of the UV 160 LED installation unit, without being limited thereto. For example, in an embodiment where the UV LED installation unit 160 is circular in shape, the cover of the UV LED installation unit 162 may be shaped coaxially with the UV LED installation unit 160 and having a larger diameter. than the UV 160 LED installation unit.
    [077] Preferably, the UV LED 162 installation unit cover has a diameter of 3.5 cm to 7 cm larger than the UV 160 LED installation unit. If the UV LED installation unit cover diameter 162 is longer than the UV LED installation unit 160 by a length of less than 3.5 cm, the air stream generated by the suction fan 150 can be dispersed instead of being collected towards the side surface or the bottom surface. of the UV 160 LED installation unit, and if the cover diameter of the UV 162 LED installation unit is larger than the UV 160 LED installation unit by a length greater than 7 cm, there may be a problem of unnecessarily block the light emitted from the UV 161 LED module. Specifically, the UV 160 LED installation unit can have a diameter of 8 cm to 20 cm and the UV 162 LED installation unit cover can have a diameter of 10 cm to 25 cm. Within these diameter ranges, the cover diameter of the UV 162 LED installation unit is larger than the diameter of the UV 160 LED installation unit by a length of 3.5 cm to 7 cm. Furthermore, an outer periphery of the cover of the UV LED installation unit 162 has a linear or curved shape and can extend to be placed below the UV LED installation unit, specifically, for a length of about 6 mm to 10 mm, thus effectively blocking the suction air stream into the insect trap 1000.
    [078] In the insect trap 1000, according to the first embodiment, wherein the UV LED installation unit 160 and the cover of the UV LED installation unit 162 have diameters within the above ranges, the air current generated by the suction fan has a speed of 0.5 m/s to 3.0 m/s, preferably 0.5 m/s to 2.5 m/s, more preferably 0.6 m/s to 2.5 m/s, for example, 0.7 m/s to 2.5 m/s, more specifically, 0.7 m/s to 2.0 m/s, as measured in a region extending from the cover of the UV 162 LED installation unit to an upper end of the main body in the vertical direction, thereby providing an adequate wind speed causing mosquitoes to stop flying and be sucked into the insect trap 1000.
    [079] As described above, the UV LED installation unit 161 is separated at a distance of 2 cm to 5 cm from the insect passage unit 120 and the cover diameter of the UV LED installation unit 162 is adjusted to keep the air current generated by the suction fan 150, without being influenced by the external wind, wherein the insect trap can stably suck in insects, attracted by the UV light from the UV LED module, in the insect passage unit 120.
    [080] UV LED Module 161, 261, 361: Figures 7 to 9 are views of UV LED modules, according to embodiments of the present invention.
    [081] UV LED modules 161, 261, 361 can emit at least one type of light selected from UV light, visible light and IR light, preferably UV light. As far as insect attraction wavelengths are concerned, reports say that flies and leafhoppers are attracted to light at a wavelength of about 340 nm or about 575 nm, and moths and mosquitoes are attracted to the light. light with a wavelength of about 366 nm. Also, reports say that other general pests are relatively attracted to light with a wavelength of around 340nm to 380nm. Also, with regard to wavelengths that attract insects in the visible light range, Korean Patent Publication No. 2013-0049475 A and No. 2014-0010493 A disclose the activity of attracting insects by white, yellow light , red, green and blue.
    [082] Preferably, UV LED modules 161, 261, 361 emit light with a wavelength of 340 mm to 390 mm. More preferably, the UV LED modules 161, 261, 361 are controlled to emit light with a wavelength of about 365 mm, which strongly attracts mosquitoes and is of low harm to humans.
    [083] Each of the UV LED modules 161, 261, 361 may include one or more chip-on-board (COB) 165 UV LED chips or one or more LED packages mounted on a supporting substrate 164. The chips 165 UV LED arrays or UV LED packs may be arranged in a plurality of rows. Alternatively, UV LED chips 165 or UV LED packages may be arranged in a zigzag arrangement to prevent the substrate of support 164 from overheating.
    [084] The substrate of support 164 may have a panel shape that has a predetermined thickness and includes a printed circuit board (PCB) having an integrated circuit or interconnect lines thereon. By way of example, the support substrate 164 may be a printed circuit board with a printed circuit pattern in a region on which the UV LED chip 165 will be mounted, and may be composed of a material, such as a metal, a semiconductor, a ceramic, a polymer, and the like.
    [085] Specifically, each of the UV LED modules 161, 261, 361 may have a structure in which the UV LED chips 165 are mounted on a PCB surface having an elongated plate shape. In each of the UV LED modules 161, 261, 361, the plurality of UV LED chips 165, e.g. 4 to 10 UV LED chips 165 are arranged at certain intervals on the PCB, in a longitudinal direction of the PCB. Heat dissipation fins can be provided to the other surface of the PCB to dissipate heat generated from the UV 165 LED chips, and both ends of each of the UV 161, 261, 361 LED modules can be provided with the terminals that will be connected to a power source to supply power to the PCB.
    [086] Each of the UV LED modules 161, 261, 361 can be manufactured to consume a power of 800 mA to 2000 mA, preferably 1000 mA to 1500 mA, with an input voltage of 12 V and an input current of 75 mA to 85 mA. Within this range, UV LED modules 161, 261, 361 can effectively attract insects by emitting light with a wavelength of 365mm and be harmless to humans, minimizing energy consumption.
    [087] In each of the UV LED modules 161, 261, 361, the UV LED chips 165 or UV LED packs can be mounted on the support substrate 164 such that the UV LED 165 chips or UV LED packs are mounted on one surface of the support substrate 164 do not overlap the UV LED chips 165 or UV LED packs mounted on the other surface of the support substrate 164. The UV LED chips 165 or UV LED packs may be arranged in a plurality of rows or in a zigzag arrangement, without being limited thereto. Therefore, the insect trap 1000, according to the first embodiment, can minimize energy consumption while expanding an irradiation range, and can improve the durability of each of the UV LED modules 161, 261, 361 by dissipating of the heat generated from UV 165 LED chips.
    [088] While the electrical energy supplied to the UV 161, 261, 361 LED modules is converted into light energy and thermal energy, heat is generated from the UV 165 LED chips and a separate space at a distance of 5 mm or less from the chips. UV 165 LED can have a temperature of 30°C to 60°C. Since insects, particularly mosquitoes, are strongly attracted to a material having a temperature of about 38°C to 40°C, which is similar to mammal's body temperature, insect trap 1000 can strongly attract insects through heat generated from UV LED modules 161, 261, 361 in addition to attracting effects from UV LED modules 161, 261, 361.
    [089] Therefore, the insect trap 1000, according to the first embodiment of the present invention, employs UV LED modules 161, 261, 361 manufactured to consume a power of 800 mA to 2000 mA, preferably 1000 mA to 1500 mA, at an input voltage of 12 V and an input current of 75 mA to 85 mA, and includes UV 165 LED chips or UV LED packages mounted on the support substrate 164 such that UV 165 LED chips or LED packages UV mounted on one surface of the support substrate 164 do not overlap with UV LED 165 chips or UV LED packages mounted on the other surface of the support substrate. Thus, the insect trap 1000, according to the first embodiment, can emit light harmless to humans, having high efficiency of attracting insects, while minimizing energy consumption and can generate heat, such that the surrounding environment around 1000 insect trap has a temperature that provides high insect attracting effects. Concretization 2
    [090] An insect trap 2000 (not shown) according to a second embodiment of the present invention has the same configuration as the insect trap according to the first embodiment, except that there is a photocatalyst filter. Hereafter, the photocatalyst filter will be described in detail.
    [091] The photocatalyst filter can perform a deodorization function using UV light emitted from the UV 161 LED module as a catalyst and can generate carbon dioxide. The photocatalyst filter can be disposed anywhere on the insect trap 2000, as long as the photocatalyst filter can receive UV light emitted from the module 161. For example, the photocatalyst filter can be disposed on the main body 110, the pass-through unit. LED UV 120 insect head, the air collection unit 130, the UV LED installation unit 160, the UV LED installation unit cover 162, and the mesh-like element 171, preferably on a lower surface of the UV installation unit. UV 160 LED and/or a lower surface of the cover of the UV 162 LED installation unit.
    [092] Preferably, the photocatalyst filter is incorporated into the insect trap rather than being provided in a protrusion frame. Specifically, in a type incorporated on the side where the photocatalyst filter is incorporated into a side surface of the insect trap 1000 to contact an air stream generated in the insect trap 1000, an interior space of the insect trap 1000 can be efficiently constituted without obstructing the aspiration of insects and air into the insect trap 1000.
    [093] The photocatalyst filter can be formed by deposition of a photocatalyst layer on a structure. By way of example, the photocatalyst filter may be formed by incorporating a layer of photocatalyst into a porous material, such as foamed metal and foamed carbon, or into a ceramic material.
    [094] The photocatalyst layer may include at least one compound selected from the group consisting of, for example, titanium oxide (TiO2), silicon oxide (SiO2), tungsten oxide (WO3), zinc oxide ( ZnO), zirconium oxide (ZrO2), tin oxide (SnO2), cerium oxide (CeO2), iron oxide (FeO3), zinc sulfide (ZnS), cadmium sulfide (CdS), and strontium titanate ( SrTiO3), which can act as photocatalyst media. In one example, the photocatalyst layer can be made by coating a layer of titanium oxide (TiO2), or by depositing cooking oil or a tangerine liquid on a contacting portion between the photocatalyst filter and a ceramic material.
    [095] The photocatalyst layer can generate CO2, which has high efficiency in attracting mosquitoes, providing the deodorization effect. Specifically, when the photocatalyst layer is irradiated with light emitted from the UV 161 LED module and inducing the photocatalysis reaction, radicals having strong reducing ability can be generated through the photocatalysis reaction known in the art. Then, an organic component around the photocatalyst layer can be decomposed by the radicals to generate carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is known as a gas capable of attracting insects, particularly mosquitoes. For example, the light that induces the photocatalysis reaction may be UV light in a wavelength range from about 200 nm to 400 nm. That is, since the light that induces photocatalysis reaction has not only a function of generating radicals when it hits the photocatalyst layer, but also a function of attracting insects, the wavelength of the light can be determined taking into account two aspects, ie photocatalysis reaction and direct insect attraction.
    [096] In some embodiments, in order to promote carbon dioxide generation, an attracting substance such as lactic acid, amino acid, sodium chloride, uric acid, ammonia, and protein decomposition substances can be supplied to the photocatalyst filter. . By way of example, as a method of supplying the attracting substance, the attracting substance may be deposited on the photocatalyst layer in the photocatalyst filter or it may be periodically, or not periodically, sprayed onto the photocatalyst layer, without being limited to the same. As a result, the concentration of carbon dioxide increases, thus improving the efficiency of attracting insects.
    [097] On the other hand, organic materials in the air surrounding the photocatalyst filter are decomposed by the radicals generated by photocatalysis reaction, thus providing an air purification effect around the insect trap 2000.
    [098] That is, the insect trap 2000, according to the second embodiment of the present invention, can use not only the light and heat generated from the UV LED module 161, but also carbon dioxide as a means of attracting insects. insects, thus significantly improving the effectiveness in attracting insects, particularly mosquitoes.
    [099] Next, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to some examples. However, it is to be understood that these examples are provided for illustration only and should not be construed as limiting the present invention in any way.

    [0103] In addition, a UV 161 LED module was a dual-side type PCB and included three UV LED 165 chips arranged in a zigzag arrangement on each side of the PCB. The UV 161 LED module has been configured to emit light with a wavelength of 365 mm at an input voltage of 12 V and an input current of 75 mA to 85 mA.
