Abstract

A method for manufacturing a flyswatter having a conductive plastic electrode net, and a flyswatter structure obtained thereby are provided. The method may include the following steps: (i) using an insulating plastic to perform injection molding, so as to obtain a flyswatter body; and (ii) using a conductive plastic to perform second injection molding on the flyswatter body to manufacture an electric net component, such that the electric net component and the flyswatter body are integrated with each other. The flyswatter structure includes the flyswatter body and the electric net component. The flyswatter body includes a shaft, a handle, and a frame. The handle has an inner chamber for installing a power control circuit and a battery therein. The electric net component consists of a positive electrode portion and a negative electrode portion. The positive electrode portion includes several strip-shaped positive electrode conductors and a positive electrode conductive connector, and the negative electrode portion includes several strip-shaped negative electrode conductors and a negative electrode conductive connector. The flyswatter structure does not require various manufacturing materials, and can achieve material saving during manufacturing.
