Rats not only eat crops and destroy stored materials, but also spread a variety of diseases, posing a serious threat to people's production, life, and health. Mousetraps are usually used to catch rats.

[0003] At present, there are some drones for auxiliary operations on the market, but drones specifically designed for mousetrap delivery are extremely rare, so a clamp for clamping the mousetrap cage is needed to fix the mousetrap cage to the drone for transportation. In addition, the existing mousetrap cage has a relatively simple structure and a relatively single function. After the mouse enters the mousetrap cage, it is still relatively active, which will cause the mousetrap cage to tip over, greatly affecting the efficiency of mouse catching. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a drone for placing mousetraps, which solves the problems of simple structure and single function.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: A drone for mousetrap delivery, comprising: a drone body, a bottom plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the drone body, connecting rods fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom end of the bottom plate, a shell sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod, clamping assemblies are arranged on the left and right ends of the shell, a mousetrap cage is arranged at the bottom end of the shell, grooves are arranged on the tops of the outer walls of the left and right ends of the mousetrap cage, an integrated control box is arranged at the top rear end of the mousetrap cage, two revolving doors are arranged at the front of the mousetrap cage, a rotating rod is fixedly connected to the rear end of the revolving door, the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the mousetrap cage, a transmission assembly is arranged at the top of the mousetrap cage, a movable plate is arranged on the bottom inner wall of the mousetrap cage, and the bottom of the movable plate is connected to the mousetrap cage through a weighing sensor.

[0006] Preferably, the clamping assembly includes a moving block disposed at the bottom of the shell, the left and right ends of the moving block are fixedly connected with teeth, the side of the teeth away from the moving block is meshedly connected with a clamping block, and the clamping block is rotatably connected to the shell.

[0007] Preferably, the transmission assembly includes a gear fixedly connected to the top of the mousetrap cage, the outer wall of the gear is meshingly connected with a driving wheel, and a steering gear is installed at the rear of the driving wheel.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom ends of the outer walls at both ends of the mousetrap are fixedly connected with support blocks, and the support blocks play a supporting role for the mousetrap.

[0009] Preferably, the inner walls of the left and right ends of the mousetrap cage are provided with sliding grooves, a slider 1 is slidably connected in the sliding groove, and a placement cage is fixedly connected to the adjacent side of the slider 1 at the left and right ends.

[0010] Preferably, both front and rear ends of the moving block are fixedly connected with a sliding block 2, and the sliding block 2 is slidably connected to the shell.

[0011] Preferably, a plurality of through holes are provided on the surface of the movable plate, and an air bag is provided at the bottom of the movable plate, and the air bag is filled with anesthetic gas.

[0012] Preferably, a solar panel is provided at the top middle end of the mousetrap.

[0013] Preferably, the width of the top of the support block is smaller than the width of the bottom of the support block.

[0014] Preferably, the rear end of the mousetrap is fixedly connected with an infrared sensor

[0015] Working principle: first, place the mousetrap 5 at the bottom of the shell 4, and insert the bottom end of the clamping block 7 into the groove 18. When the drone body 1 takes off, it can move with the connecting rod 3 through the bottom plate 2, and the connecting rod 3 moves upward with the moving block 24, so that the teeth 23 are engaged with the top of the clamping block 7, ensuring that the clamping block 7 is always located in the groove 18, ensuring the stability of the clamping of the mousetrap 5. When the drone body 1 flies to the specified position, the mousetrap 5 is placed on the ground, and then the drone body 1 descends to make the moving block 24 move downward, so that the clamping block 7 rotates, and the clamping block 7 is rotated out of the groove 18, and the mousetrap 5 can be placed. Then the servo 12 drives the driving wheel to rotate, and the driving end rotates with the gear 13, and the gear 13 rotates and drives the rotating rod 15 to rotate, so that the revolving door 9 rotates. When the mouse enters the mousetrap 5, the mousetrap 5 has a control box 17 integrated at the top rear end, and a built-in carbon dioxide sensor continuously monitors the environmental CO 2 Concentration, once the breathing characteristics of mice are detected (such as a sudden increase in concentration), the trigger device is immediately activated. At the same time, the infrared sensor 21 at the rear end of the mousetrap cage performs infrared imaging and biometric identification (such as body temperature and body shape) of objects entering the area, combined with the dynamic detection of the weighing sensor 10 (triggered when the mouse is ≥50g), after confirming the target, the steering gear 12 drives the gear 13 and the rotating rod 15 to synchronously close the front and rear revolving doors 9 to form a closed space. After the mouse enters the cage, it steps on the moving plate 11 to trigger the compression of the bottom airbag 20, releasing the anesthetic gas to be sprayed through the through hole in a directional manner, quickly subduing the target.

[0016] The present invention provides a drone for deploying a mousetrap, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. By integrating a carbon dioxide sensor, an infrared sensor, and a weighing sensor, the present invention can accurately identify and quickly respond to the activities of mice. When the respiratory characteristics or biological signals of mice are detected, the system automatically triggers the mousetrap process, forms a closed space by closing the revolving door, and releases anesthetic gas through an airbag to achieve rapid capture. The whole process requires no manual intervention. Combining with dynamic recognition technology, the mousetrap efficiency is significantly improved.

[0018] 2. The present invention adopts a quick-release clamping structure, which can quickly install the mousetrap cage at the bottom of the drone for flexible deployment. An inner placement cage for placing bait is provided to lure mice into the mousetrap cage, and support blocks are arranged to enhance the stability of the mousetrap cage, prevent the mousetrap cage from tipping over, and ensure the reliable operation of the device in complex terrains.

[0027] A drone for deploying a mousetrap includes: a drone body 1, a bottom plate 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drone body 1. When the drone body 1 takes off, it can drive the bottom plate 2 to move, and then drive the moving block 24 to move upward through the connecting rod 3. Connecting rods 3 are fixedly connected to the four corners at the bottom end of the bottom plate 2. A housing 4 is sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod 3. A moving block 24 is arranged at the bottom of the housing 4. Tooth blocks 23 are fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the moving block 24. When the moving block 24 moves, the tooth blocks 23 mesh with the top end of the clamping block 7, thereby driving the clamping block 7 to rotate. The side of the tooth block 23 away from the moving block 24 is meshed with a clamping block 7. The bottom end of the clamping block 7 is L-shaped, and the size of the bottom end of the clamping block 7 is adapted to the size of the groove 18. The clamping block 7 is rotatably connected to the housing 4. A mousetrap 5 is arranged at the bottom end of the housing 4. Grooves 18 are opened at the top of the outer walls of the left and right ends of the mousetrap 5. By inserting the clamping block 7 into the groove 18, the mousetrap 5 can be clamped. An integrated control box 17 is arranged at the rear end of the top of the mousetrap 5. A carbon dioxide sensor is arranged in the integrated control box 17. By detecting the carbon dioxide concentration, it is judged whether there are animals nearby. After sensing the appearance of the target, the device starts to work. Two swing doors 9 are arranged at the front of the mousetrap 5. A rotating rod 15 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the swing door 9. The rotating rod 15 is rotatably connected to the mousetrap 5. A gear 13 is fixedly connected to the top end of the mousetrap 5. A driving wheel is meshed with the outer wall of the gear 13.

By providing the support blocks 6, the stability of the mouse trap 5 can be improved. Sliding grooves 8 are formed in the inner walls at the left and right ends of the mouse trap 5. A first slider 19 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 8. A placement cage 16 is fixedly connected to the adjacent sides of the first sliders 19 at the left and right ends. By providing the placement cage 16, bait can be placed inside it to lure the mouse into the mouse trap 5. By sliding the first slider 19 in the sliding groove 8, the stability of the placement cage 16 during movement can be ensured. Second sliders 22 are fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the moving block 24. The second sliders 22 are slidably connected to the housing 4, which can ensure the stability of the moving block 24 during movement, thereby improving the stability of the UAV body 1 during flight. A plurality of through holes are formed in the surface of the moving plate 11. An airbag 20 is provided at the bottom of the moving plate 11. The airbag 20 is filled with anesthetic gas. When a mouse enters the mouse trap 5, the mouse steps on the moving plate 11, causing the moving plate 11 to compress the airbag 20, so that the anesthetic gas in the airbag 20 is ejected and enters the inside of the mouse trap 5 through the through holes. A solar panel 14 is provided at the middle of the top of the mouse trap 5. By providing the solar panel 14, the battery life of the device can be ensured. The width of the top end of the support block 6 is smaller than the width of the bottom end of the support block 6. An infrared sensor 21 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the mouse trap 5.
