Patent ID: 8875437

Claim:
An electrical charge and discharge insect killing apparatus with neon tubes as light sources as an insect attractant comprising: (a) top shell assembly generally with an oval periphery and having a downward facing shell enclosed with a bottom plate supporting inside a microprocessor having a control program operating through an input/output unit a rotation drive motor, charging means for generating direct current for charging with opposite polarities vertical electrocution wires, and two neon light tubes; (b) a bottom shell assembly generally with an oval periphery and comprising an upward facing bottom shell vertically directed upward toward and spaced apart from the top shell assembly by four vertical support tubes secured at the oval a periphery of the top and bottom shell assemblies; (c) a support frame supported from an inside surface of the bottom shell having a generally oval wire support ring concentric with an upper periphery of the bottom shell and supporting therefrom distal ends of said vertical electrocution wires, each spaced apart from adjacent ones by a width of from 0.25 to 0.75 inches; (d) said vertical electrocution wires extending up toward the top shell assembly and secured from a lower housing generally oval in shape and extending down from the bottom plate, wherein said lower housing and said charging means electrically connect with proximal ends of the vertical electrocution wires, thereby defining a cagelike and generally oval vertical space between the top and bottom shell assemblies; (e) a threaded worm drive rotatably secured to rotate about at a central vertical axis of the top and bottom shell assemblies, extending from the support frame upward through a supporting opening in the bottom plate and connecting with the rotation drive motor for rotation thereby; (f) the two neon light tubes being electrically supported vertically between the top and bottom shell assemblies, a neon light tube located on either side of the worm drive inside said vertical space along a longest horizontal axis of said vertical space; and (g) a generally oval and horizontally maintained brush support frame having an outer periphery just smaller than said vertical space, wherefrom said outer periphery bristles of plastic brushes extend horizontally between each adjacent set of vertical electrocution wires, and the brush support frame is secured to the worm drive and adapted to be moved up and down.
