[0026] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and implementation modes.
[0027] On the one hand, please refer to the attached Figure 1-5 , a catcher in an embodiment of the present invention.
[0028] The trap includes a cage 100, an entrance 41 is provided on one side of the cage 100, a cage door 30 is provided at the entrance 41 of the cage 100, a control panel 18 and a driving mechanism 15 for controlling the closing of the cage door 30 are provided in the cage 100, the driving mechanism 15 is electrically connected to the control panel 18, and an electrode assembly 23 electrically connected to the control panel 18 for discharge is provided at the bottom of the cage 100.
[0029] When a mouse or other small animal enters the cage 100 from the entrance 41 and contacts the conductive electrode assembly 23, the electrode assembly 23 will be triggered to feedback a trigger signal to the control panel 18. At this time, the control panel 18 controls the drive mechanism 15 to drive the cage door 30 to close, preventing the mouse from escaping from the entrance 41 while waiting for the captured object. In this way, the user can use food to lure the mouse to wait for the captured object to be captured. The present invention uses the drive mechanism 15 to control the closing of the cage door 30, which can prevent the mouse from damaging the driving structure of the cage door 30 under the action of force, causing the mouse to escape easily. Furthermore, it can solve the problem that the existing mousetrap uses a physical structure to trigger the cage door 30 to close, which is easily damaged under the action of force, and it is easy for the mouse to escape from the entrance 41, resulting in poor mouse catching effect.
[0030] In addition, it should be noted that in another embodiment, according to user needs, when the object to be captured is connected to the electrode assembly 23, the control board receives the feedback signal from the electrode assembly 23, and uses the step-up transformer on the control board 18 to increase the voltage and output it from the electrode assembly 23, thereby achieving a rodent control effect.
[0031] For details, please refer to the attached Figure 2In this embodiment, the cage body 100 includes: a first body 20, and a second body 10 connected to the first body 20 and forming a hollow cavity 40. The inlet 41 is located on one side of the hollow cavity 40, and one end of the first body 20 is arranged to rotate relative to the second body 10. In this way, when cleaning the mouse corpse, the cage door 30 can be opened to pour out the mouse corpse located in the hollow cavity 40. When the user wants to further clean the hollow cavity 40, such as urine and feces flowing from the mouse being electrocuted, at this time, the user can open the second body 10 and the first body 20 by rotating, which is convenient for the user to wash with water, keep the cage body 100 clean, and facilitate operation. Specifically, the second body 10 is connected to the first body 20 by a rotating shaft 30.
[0032] It should be noted that the second body 10 and the first body 20 can be connected to each other by being rotatable up and down, or by being rotatable left and right, which is not limited here.
[0033] In one embodiment, the other end of the first body 20 is connected to the second body 10 via a buckle 14. The buckle 14 can fix the second body 10 to the first body 20, thereby preventing a mouse in the hollow cavity 40 from rotating and opening the second body 10 under the action of force.
[0034] For details, please refer to the attached Figure 4 , the second body 10 is provided with a clamping end 142 on both sides of the hollow cavity 40, and the first body 20 is provided with a first clamping groove 26 used in conjunction with the clamping end 142, and the clamping end 142 and the first clamping groove 26 form a buckle 14. The second body 10 is provided with a pressing member 141 connected to the clamping end 142, and a second limiting member 144 is provided inside the second body 10, and a first elastic member 143 is provided between the pressing member 141 and the second limiting member 144. When the second body 10 is closed on the first body 20, under the action of the first elastic member 143, the clamping end 142 is pressed and clamped in the first clamping groove 26; when the user needs to open the second body 10, the pressing members 141 on both sides can be pressed at the same time, and under the action of the first elastic member 143, the clamping ends 142 on both sides are close to release the pressed first clamping groove 26, and the second body 10 can be rotated at this time to achieve opening and closing. Specifically, the first elastic member 143 is a spring.
[0035] In one embodiment, the control board 18 is located in the second body 10, the electrode assembly 23 is arranged on the first body 20 and is located at the bottom of the hollow cavity 40, and a conductive spring 19 cooperating with the electrode assembly 23 is arranged on the second body 10, and the conductive spring 19 is electrically connected to the control board 18. The electrode assembly 23 includes a positive electrode sheet 21 and a negative electrode sheet 22, and the positive electrode sheet 21 is arranged in the middle of the negative electrode sheet 22 and is spaced apart from the negative electrode sheet 22. There are two conductive springs 19, and they are arranged corresponding to the positive electrode sheet 21 and the negative electrode sheet 22 respectively. Specifically, a positive electrode connecting portion 211 is arranged on the positive electrode sheet 21, and a negative electrode connecting portion 221 is arranged on the negative electrode sheet 22, and the positive electrode connecting portion 211 and the negative electrode connecting portion 221 are arranged on opposite sides of the hollow cavity 40. And the positive electrode connecting portion 211 and the negative electrode connecting portion 221 extend upward along the side wall of the hollow cavity 40 to the upper surface of the first body 20, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, it is convenient to contact with the conductive spring sheet 19.
[0036] Thus, when the second body 10 is closed on the first body 20, the electrode assembly 23 can be electrically connected to the control board 18 through the conductive spring sheet 19. When a mouse enters the hollow cavity 40 from the entrance 41 and contacts the positive electrode sheet 21 and the negative electrode sheet 22 at the same time, the positive electrode sheet 21 and the negative electrode sheet 22 can be connected, so that the mouse can be electrocuted through the control board 18.
[0037] In one embodiment, in order to improve the conductivity of the positive electrode sheet 21 and the negative electrode sheet 22 after the object to be captured is knocked down by electric shock, and to prevent the obstruction of the hair of the object to be captured from affecting the conduction of the positive electrode sheet 21 and the negative electrode sheet 22, a protrusion 24 is provided on the positive electrode sheet 21 and the negative electrode sheet 22. The protrusion 24 can be in the form of a hemisphere, a truncated cone or a cone, which is not limited here. Through the protrusion 24, the positive electrode sheet 21 and the negative electrode sheet 22 can both contact the object to be captured and conduct, preventing the obstruction of the animal's hair, so that after the object to be captured is knocked down by electric shock, the protrusion 24 can avoid the hair of the object to be captured, so that the positive electrode sheet 21 and the negative electrode sheet 22 can conduct, thereby improving the rodent control effect.
[0038] In one embodiment, in order to facilitate the discharge of the liquid in the hollow cavity 40 , drainage grooves 25 are disposed around the first body 20 corresponding to the positive electrode sheet 21 and the negative electrode sheet 22 .
[0039] In one embodiment, a detection sensor (not shown) for detecting whether the cage 100 is opened or closed is provided on the second body 10, and the detection sensor is electrically connected to the control board 18. Specifically, the detection sensor is a proximity sensor. When the second body 10 and the first body 20 are closed, the proximity sensor sends a signal to the control board 18, and the control board 18 supplies power to the conductive spring sheet 19. When the second body 10 and the first body 20 are opened, the proximity sensor sends a signal to the control board 18, and the control board 18 stops outputting voltage to the conductive spring sheet 19 to prevent the user from getting an electric shock.
[0040] In one embodiment, the driving mechanism 15 is disposed on the second body 10. Specifically, the driving mechanism 15 includes: a motor 151 fixed in the second body 10, a toggle member 152 disposed on the rotating shaft of the motor 151, a clamping rod 154 rotatably disposed on the second body 10, and a reset member 153 connected to the clamping rod 154 for resetting the clamping rod 154.

[0041] When the cage door 30 is opened, the clamping rod 154 is clamped in the second clamping slot 35, and the second elastic member 34 is compressed between the first stopper 31 and the second body 10. When the mouse enters the hollow cavity 40 to make the positive electrode sheet 21 and the negative electrode sheet 22 conductive, the control board 18 drives the motor 151 to rotate, the motor 151 drives the toggle member 152 to rotate, the toggle member 152 pushes the clamping rod 154 to rotate, so that the clamping rod 154 leaves the second clamping slot 35, and the cage door 30 moves downward and closes under the action of the second elastic member 34 resetting, thereby preventing the mouse from escaping from the entrance 41, and the user can also judge whether the mouse is caught according to the closing and opening of the cage door 30. When the user needs to open the cage door 30, the cage door 30 can be lifted up with force, and the clamping rod 154 is placed back in the second clamping slot 35 under the action of the resetting member 153, and the cage door 30 can be opened.
[0042] Among them, a sensor for use with the clamping rod 154 can be set in the second body 10. The sensor is a photoelectric sensor, which is used to feedback a signal to the control board 18 after the clamping rod 154 rotates to a certain position under the action of the toggle rod 152. The control board 18 drives the toggle rod 154 to stop rotating for easy control.
[0043] Specifically, a guide rod 33 is provided at a position of the cage door 30 corresponding to the second elastic member 34 , the second elastic member 34 is sleeved on the guide rod 33 , the reset member 153 is a torsion spring, one end of the torsion spring is fixed on the clamping rod 154 , and the other end is provided on the second body 10 .

The sealing ring 161 can prevent water from entering when the second body 10 is opened for flushing, so that the trap of the present invention is suitable for outdoor use. Specifically, a wiring hole (not shown in the figure) is provided on the mounting cavity 16 to facilitate the wiring of the control board 18 and the connection with the conductive spring 19.
[0046] In the above embodiment, a battery 17 electrically connected to the control board 18 is disposed in the installation cavity 16, and a battery cover 171 is detachably disposed at the position of the second body 10 corresponding to the battery 17, so that the user can easily replace the battery 17. Specifically, the battery 17 is a rechargeable battery.
[0047] In one embodiment, in order to prevent the situation where the mouse is not electrocuted after the motor 151 has been running for a certain period of time, a function button 181 electrically connected to the control panel 18 for triggering the discharge of the electrode assembly is provided on the second body 10. By pressing the function button 181, the mouse can be electrocuted again, thereby improving practicality.
[0048] In addition, in the above embodiment, the second body 10 is also provided with a charging interface and a power button 182 electrically connected to the control panel 18, so as to facilitate charging the battery 17. The power button 182 is located next to the function button 181, and a silicone plug 183 is provided on the charging interface (not shown in the figure), which blocks the charging interface when not charging, thereby achieving a waterproof effect. A waterproof pad 11 is provided on the second body 10 corresponding to the power button 182 and the function button 181 for waterproofing.
[0049] In one embodiment, a first handle 13 is disposed on the second body 10 , and the first handle 13 is formed by inward depression of two side walls of the second body 10 .
[0050] On the other hand, in order to cooperate with the use of the above-mentioned trap and facilitate users to catch mice waiting for capture, the present invention also provides a capture method of the trap, that is, when the object to be captured enters the cage body 100 and the electrode assembly 23 is turned on, the electrode assembly 23 feeds back a trigger signal to the control board 18, triggering the driving mechanism 15 to operate and drive the cage door 30 to close. In this way, the mouse waiting for capture can be captured, which is convenient for users to use.
[0051] The above description is only an implementation mode of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, improvements can be made without departing from the creative concept of the present invention, but these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
