Abstract:
A cockroach-trap comprising a box-shaped body, a metal net, and an intermittent-high-voltage generating circuit;said box-shaped body including a top cover and a bottom tray pivotally connected at one end to said top cover by hinges, at least one entrance being formed in said box-shaped body and two pin holes being separately provided at the other another end of said top cover and said bottom tray opposite to said hinges, such that when said top cover is closed onto said bottom tray, said two pin holes together form a socket for a plug to plug thereinto;said metal net being spread over entire inner surfaces of said top cover and said bottom tray except where said at least one entrance is provided, said metal net being formed by alternately and densely arranging metal wire conductors of different polarities, said metal wire conductors on said top cover and said bottom tray which face each other always having the same polarity, and two of said metal wire conductors having different polarities being extended from said metal net to electrically connect to said intermittent-high-voltage generating circuit; and saidsaid intermittent-high-voltage generating circuit being supplied with power to intermittently generate high voltage in said metal net by closing said top cover onto said bottom tray and plugging a plug into said two pin holes on said top cover and said bottom tray;whereby said cockroach-trap can be supplied with current to generate intermittent high voltage only when said box-shaped body is in a closed state for a plug to plug into said two pin holes, and said cockroach-trap is in a disconnected and absolutely safe state when said top cover is lifted from said bottom tray.
