Abstract

A fan grill for a mosquito trap is a board and has a center, a funnel-shaped shell, multiple air holes and a through hole. The shell is formed downward in the center and is tapered off to a bottom. The air holes are respectively formed through the shell and are arranged radially and spirally. The through hole is formed on the bottom of the shell. The radial and spiral air holes are designed according to direction of airflow created by a fan so allow the airflow to pass smoothly therethrough and to generate steady suction forces. Besides, hole diameters of the air holes are less than sizes of mosquitoes so trapped mosquitoes are prevented from escaping from between fan blades of the fan. Therefore, trapping efficiency is enhanced.
