Patent number: 12336525Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of trapping arthropods by providing a substantially planar, flexible insert having a LED-facing surface having an adhesive for trapping the arthropods disposed thereon. Then, bending the insert into a curved configuration and inserting the insert into an arthropod trapping device. The device includes a housing having a base and a curved shade. The curved shade is configured to receive the insert and comprises a LED-facing surface. A first LED having a peak wavelength of from about 400 nm to about 500 nm is mounted on the base and is configured to emit light in a direction substantially perpendicular to the LED-facing surface of the shade. A second LED having a peak wavelength of from about 350 nm to about 400 nm is mounted on the base and is configured to emit light in a direction substantially parallel to the LED-facing surface of the shade.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2024Date of Patent: June 24, 2025Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Christopher Lawrence Smith, Benjamin Patrick Hale, Adam James Burt, Erik John Hasenoehrl, Danilo Rossi, Andrea Pedrotti, Walter Sordo, Alessio Giovanelli, Brian Lee Floyd, Hirotaka Uchiyama, Thomas Bernard Walker, III, Anthony Xavier Jean-Yves Clerc

Publication number: 20250120386Abstract: An arthropod trapping device having a housing including a base and a shade coupled to the base. The base includes a convex outward-facing wall and an opposing rear-facing wall, electrically conductive prongs, a circuit board, and a first and second LED electrically connected to the circuit board. The shade includes an outward-facing surface and a LED-facing surface. A first end region of the shade is adjacent to the outward-facing wall of the base such that the first end region of the shade overlaps at least a portion of the outward-facing wall of the base. The LED-facing surface that overlaps the base is spaced apart from the outward-facing wall of the base such that an opening is defined between the LED-facing surface of the shade and the outward-facing wall of the base. The opening extends from a first side edge of the base to a second side edge of the base.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 18, 2024Publication date: April 17, 2025Inventors: Christopher Lawrence SMITH, Benjamin Patrick HALE, Adam James BURT, Eric John HASENOEHRL, Danilo ROSSI, Andrea PEDROTTI, Walter SORDO, Alessio GIOVANELLI, Brian Lee FLOYD, Hirotaka UCHIYAMA, Thomas Bernard WALKER, III, Anthony Xavier Jean-Yves CLERC
