Abstract

A flexible electric insect swatter comprising one or more frames that are laterally fastened by elastic fasteners that is further proximately fastened to a handle forming an electric circuit used to electrocute an insect. Each frame contains a single layer grid or alternately two or more meshes capable of receiving a charge. The one or more frame arrangement that is connected by elastic fasteners, allows the insect swatter to return back to its original geometry after being struck. In an alternate embodiment, shock-absorbers are attached to the face of every frame.

Claims

1. An electric insect swatter comprising:

(a) two or more frames that are fastened by a plurality of elastic fasteners;

(b) such that the fastened frames are further fastened to a handle;

(c) where the handle and frames are further connected by electrical wires to form an electrical circuit.

2. The electric insect swatter as recited in claim 1, wherein a plurality of elastic shock absorbers are located on the face of each frame.

3. The electric insect swatter as recited in claim 1, where contained within the frame is a plurality meshes proximally and distally spaced where a mesh is connected to an electrical wire by a slip ring.

4. The electric insect swatter as recited in claim 1, where contained within the frame is a grid composed of connected rods laterally spaced where a rod is connected to an electrical wire by a slip ring.

5. A flexible electric insect swatter comprising:

(a) one or more frames;

(b) wherein a frame is further attached to a handle;

(c) by one or more elastic fasteners;

(d) where the frame, handle, and elastic fasteners are further connected by electrical wires to form an electrical circuit.

6. The electric insect swatter as recited in claim 5, wherein elastic shock absorbers are located on the face of a frame.

7. The electric insect swatter as recited in claim 5, where contained within the frame is a plurality meshes proximally and distally spaced where a mesh is connected to an electrical wire by a slip ring.

8. The electric insect swatter as recited in claim 5, where contained within the frame is a grid composed of connected rods laterally spaced where a rod is connected to an electrical wire by a slip ring.

9. An electric insect swatter comprising:

(a) at least two frames but not more than eight frames;

(b) where the frames are fastened by a plurality of elastic fasteners;

(c) such that the fastened frames are further fastened to a handle by one or more elastic fasteners;

(d) where the handle and frames are connected to form an electrical circuit.

10. The electric insect swatter as recited in claim 9, where contained within the frame is a mesh that is connected to an electrical wire by a slip ring.

11. The electric insect swatter as recited in claim 9, where contained within the frame is a grid composed of connected rods laterally spaced where a rod is connected to an electrical wire by a slip ring.

12. The electric insect swatter as recited in claim 9, where elastic shock absorbers are located on the face of each frame.
