Abstract

Fly swatter

It comprises a perforated vane (1) that presents at least one of its faces a series of small bumps (3) of decreasing section, topped and distributed homogeneously by its surface, extending said palette perforated (1) on a handle (2) that has a free end fork, as a flexible arm fork, for configuration of a clamp (4).

Description

Fly swatter

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a fly swatter, of the type constituted by a perforated vane or grid equipped with an elongated handle.

Background of the invention

There are currently a wide variety of devices to kill flies and other household insects flying

Many of these devices are of type electric or use chemical or poisoned baits, so they present problems of ecological use, danger of accident for children and they require a certain energy consumption for their operation.

The fly swatters are also well known traditional basically consisting of a perforated vane or grid and noticeably flexible provided with an elongated handle. This fly swatter allows the user to kill the fly by impact when hitting it against a surface, for example a wall. However, there is the problem that the coup can be so violent that you completely crush the fly against the surface, forming a stick that must be removed by scratching and also It causes a stain that can be difficult to remove. There is also the problem of transporting the dead and chafada fly to the bucket of the garbage or where it is discarded, since it is usually done by collecting it by hand, which is unpleasant.

Description of the invention

The fly swatter of this invention features some technical peculiarities intended to achieve a device equally effective, but whose use is more hygienic.

Indeed, the fly swatter comprises at least a face of the palette a series of small bumps or small entity outgoing fit to establish a small separation between the pallet and the surface on which it is applied, to avoid a complete crush of the fly or trapped insect between both. In this way the blow is sufficiently severe for the fly to die or be seriously damaged, but however, the insect is housed in said separation, with which avoids its total crushing and scattered on the surface, as well as the risk of staining surface.

It is planned to be able to collect and move the fly in a more hygienic way, after having hit with the fly swatter, the handle or handle present in your free end a fork as an arm fork flexible for the configuration of a clamp with which to pick up and transport the dead fly without having to touch it directly with hands.

The protrusions of the palette are homogeneously distributed, so that when the pallet is supported on a surface and flex the separation maintained is constant. In order that these bumps cannot cause The crushing of the fly is expected to present a form conical, bulging or any other of diminishing and finished section on point.

Description of the figures

To complement the description that is being performing and in order to facilitate the understanding of characteristics of the invention, is attached herein descriptive a set of drawings in which, for illustrative purposes and not limiting, the following has been represented:

- Figure 1 shows a plan view of a example of the fly swatter.

- Figure 2 schematically shows a view in perspective of the fly swatter.

- Figure 3 shows an enlarged detail of palette in which the defined bumps are observed in one of their faces.

- Figure 4 shows an enlarged detail in perspective of the clamp defined at the rear end of the mango.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

As can be seen in the figures referenced the fly swatter consists of a trowel (1) perforated or grid, flexible and prolonged constitution in a handle (2) or elongated handle for handling.

The palette (1) presents on one of its faces greater a plurality of conical protuberances (3) of scarce entity, distributed regularly and distanced from each other, defining between them a space of little thickness, destined to prevent overfished flies from being crushed during Its use.

The handle (2) has at its free end a fork in two flat and opposite arms that make up a clamp (4) for collecting dead flies, one way hygienic and without touching them with your hands.

Once nature is sufficiently described of the invention, as well as a preferred embodiment, for the appropriate purposes that the materials, form, size and arrangement of the elements described may be modified, as long as this does not imply an alteration of the essential features of the invention claimed in continuation.

Claims (3)

1. Fly swatter, of the type comprising a perforated vane (1) or a grid and substantially flexible, arranged at the end of a handle (2) or elongated handle, to kill flies by crushing against a surface, characterized in that it comprises at least on one of the faces of the pallet (1) a series of small protuberances (3) or protrusions suitable to establish a small separation between the pallet (1) and the surface on which it is applied and avoid a complete crushing of the trapped fly or insect; and because the handle (2) or handle has at its free end a fork, as a fork with flexible arms, for the configuration of a clamp (4) with which to pick up and transport the struck fly. 2. Fly swatter according to claim 1, characterized in that the protuberances (3) are homogeneously distributed over the surface of the vane (1). 3. Fly swatter according to claim 1, characterized in that the protuberances (3) have a conical or diminishing section shape, topped off at the tip.
