Insect electrocution apparatus

摘要

Insect electrocution apparatus having a first wire mesh formed of perpendicularly crossed wires spaced from a second wire mesh formed of perpendicularly crossed wires. The spacing device comprises a main body portion having a length equal to the spacing distance with a pair of bosses extending axially from the opposite ends of the main body portion. Each of the bosses defines a slot which receives a wire from a respective wire mesh, and the wire meshes are retained in place with respect to the main body portion. One of the wire meshes is mounted to a chassis plate by means of a grid support formed of insulative material. The grid support is an elongated member having a first portion for connection to the grid and a second portion for connection to the chassis plate. The first portion defines a pair of perpendicularly-oriented slots for receiving adjacent horizontal wires of the grid and the second portion extends through a chassis plate opening and forms a retaining member on the side of the chassis plate opening opposite the wire mesh side.
