Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of rodent trapping, and particularly relates to a disc-type multi-position rotating and switching continuous electric shock rodent trap. Background Technology

[0002] A mousetrap, also known as a rat trap, is a device that uses physical methods to trap mice. Traditional mousetraps trap mice by causing them to lose their balance and be killed by poison. However, this method cannot guarantee the precise death of the mice. Therefore, a new method uses an electric shock plate (voltage plate) to kill the mice. However, there are technical problems with using an electric shock plate: traditional fixed electric shock plates can only kill 3-4 mice. When a large number of mice accumulate on the plate, the current drops, making it difficult to guarantee the precise death of subsequent mice. Therefore, timely cleaning of the electric shock plate is important. Current technology mainly uses flipping the electric shock plate to clean up the dead mice. While this method can clean up the mice, generally, after 3-4 shocks, the charred fur adhering to the surface will still reduce the current of the electric shock plate, thus reducing its effectiveness. Therefore, the electric shock plate usually needs to be replaced. Since there is usually only one electric shock plate in the current rat trap, it needs to be replaced immediately after it fails. However, one electric shock plate can only shock 3-4 times, so it is necessary to replace the electric shock plate frequently, which is time-consuming and laborious, and cannot achieve the effect of continuous electric shock to catch rats.

[0003] Therefore, this application urgently needs to provide a disc-type multi-position rotating continuous electric shock mousetrap with multiple electric shock plates and the ability to switch between multiple electric shock positions, so as to achieve the effect of continuous electric shock. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is: a disc-type multi-position rotating and switching continuous electric shock mousetrap, comprising a cage body, wherein the cage body is provided with a mouse inlet and a mouse-repelling channel communicating with the mouse inlet. A rat-catching disc is horizontally arranged on the upper part of the cage. A horizontal pushing device is provided above one side of the rat-catching disc and is located at the rat exit of the rat-repelling channel. A rat storage box is provided below the other side of the rat-catching disc. The upper surface of the mouse-catching disc is provided with a plurality of electric mouse slots and a lower mouse hole spaced circumferentially, the lower mouse hole corresponding to the mouse storage box; each electric mouse slot is provided with an electric shock plate, and the lower surface of each electric shock plate is provided with a set of energized contacts; a set of electrode posts is provided below the mouse-catching disc, the electrode posts being used to intermittently contact each of the energized contacts to energize the corresponding electric shock plate; A rotating frame is provided above the mouse-catching disc, and the rotating frame and the mouse-catching disc can generate relative rotational motion around the same central axis. A frame opening is opened on the circumferential side wall of the rotating frame. A mouse-blocking structure is fixedly provided on the outer periphery of the mouse-catching disc. The mouse-blocking structure is used to seal the frame opening after the frame opening leaves the pushing device, so as to restrain the mouse within the rotating frame. When the opening of the frame is directly opposite the pushing device, the pushing device pushes the mouse into the rotating frame; through the relative rotation between the rotating frame and the mouse-catching disc, the rotating frame carries the mouse to be shocked when the electrode post comes into contact with the electric shock plate, and finally falls into the mouse storage box through the lower mouse hole.

[0005] As a preferred technical solution, the electrode post is fixedly arranged relative to the cage body. When the electric shock plate rotates with the mouse-catching disc to the position of the electrode post, the electrode post contacts the corresponding energized contact and is energized. The mouse-catching disc is driven to rotate by a disc driving structure, and the rotating frame is driven to rotate by a frame driving structure. The mouse-catching disc and the rotating frame can rotate relative to each other.

[0006] As a preferred technical solution, the frame drive structure includes a frame motor, the output end of which is fixed with a support sleeve, the rotation center of the rotating frame is fixed with the support sleeve, and the center of the mouse-catching disc is fitted outside the support sleeve; the disc drive structure includes a disc motor, the output end of which is fixed with a drive gear, and the outer periphery of the mouse-catching disc is provided with disc ring teeth that mesh with the drive gear.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution, the surface of the mouse-catching disc is detachably equipped with an electric shock plate support. The electric mouse slot and the lower mouse hole are provided on the electric shock plate support. Each electric shock plate is snapped into the electric mouse slot on the electric shock plate support. The surface of the mouse-catching disc is provided with clearance holes corresponding to the electric mouse slot and the lower mouse hole.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution, the electric shock plate support is provided with an avoidance notch and a central opening corresponding to the avoidance notch. The electric shock plate support is also provided with a spring piece. The bottom of the free end of the spring piece is provided with a locking block. The surface of the mouse-catching disc is provided with a locking groove, and the locking block is locked and positioned in the locking groove.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, the mouse-catching disc is fixedly arranged relative to the cage body. When the electrode post rotates relative to the mouse-catching disc to the position of the electric shock plate, the electrode post contacts the corresponding energized contact and is energized. The electrode post is driven to rotate through the electrode post driving structure, and the rotating frame is driven to rotate through the frame driving structure. The rotating frame can rotate relative to the mouse-catching disc.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, the frame drive structure includes a frame motor, the output end of which is fixed with a support sleeve, the rotation center of the rotating frame is fixed with the support sleeve, and the center of the mouse-catching disc is fitted outside the support sleeve; the pole drive structure includes a pole motor, the output end of which is fixed with a drive gear, a driven gear is also fitted outside the support sleeve, the driven gear meshes with the drive gear, and the electrode post is fixed on the driven gear.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution, the mouse-catching disc is provided with an avoidance notch and a central opening corresponding to the avoidance notch, and the mouse-catching disc is also provided with a circumferential limiting structure.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution, the flat pushing device includes a flat pushing plate and a push plate power structure that drives the flat pushing plate to move horizontally closer to or away from the rotating frame.

[0013] As an improvement to the above technical solution, the rodent-repelling channel is also equipped with a sensing device. The rodent-repelling channel includes a first channel, a second channel, and a third channel connected in sequence. The inlet of the first channel is the rodent inlet, and the outlet of the third channel is the rodent outlet. A rodent inlet gate is provided at the rodent inlet. A front push plate is provided in the first channel to drive the rodent to the second channel. A side push plate is provided in the second channel to drive the rodent to the third channel. A lifting plate is provided in the third channel to lift the rodent to the rodent outlet.

[0014] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: This invention adopts a disc-shaped structure. Multiple electric shock plates are arranged on the surface of the disc, and each electric shock plate corresponds to an electric mouse station. Since the electric shock plates are arranged circumferentially in a ring array, the area of ​​the disc is fully utilized. Under the premise of maximizing the space of a single electric mouse station, multiple electric shock plates can be arranged, that is, multiple electric mouse stations can be arranged. It has the advantages of compact structure and rational space. The disc and the rotating frame work together. Since the rotation center axis of the rotating frame is the same as the center axis of the disc, the rotating frame can switch between multiple electric mouse stations by rotating in the circumferential direction. This enables the sequential switching of multiple electric shock plates and the orderly switching of mouse entry, electric shock, and mouse dropping. It has the advantages of simple structure and reasonable control. Each electric shock plate can be reused multiple times, and multiple electric shock plates can be reused in sequence, resulting in a total number of rats killed that far exceeds that of existing technologies, achieving continuous and efficient rat trapping. At the same time, multiple electric shock plates are set in one rat trap, and only when all electric shock plates fail do they need to be replaced at the same time. The replacement frequency of electric shock plates is significantly reduced, solving the problems of low efficiency and discontinuity caused by frequent replacement of electric shock plates, thus achieving the goal of continuous rat trapping. In summary, the present invention effectively solves the technical problems mentioned in the background art, such as the small number of animals killed, the weakening effect of electric shock, and the time-consuming and laborious process of replacing the electric shock plate, and has significant technical progress and practical value.

Detailed Implementation

[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. In the following detailed description, only certain exemplary embodiments of the invention are described by way of illustration. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art will recognize that various modifications can be made to the described embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Therefore, the drawings and description are illustrative in nature and not intended to limit the scope of the claims.

[0017] Example 1: See Figures 1 to 4 A disc-type multi-position rotating and switching continuous electric shock mousetrap includes a cage body 100 and a disc mousetrap device located inside the cage body 100. An inlet 101 is provided on the surface of the cage body 100. The inlet 101 and the disc mousetrap device are connected by a mouse-repelling channel. When a mouse enters the cage body 100 through the inlet 101, it moves to the disc mousetrap device through the mouse-repelling channel and is electrocuted by the disc mousetrap device.

[0018] Specifically, the rat entrance 101 is located at the left and right ends of the cage 100 near the lower front, while the disc-shaped rat trap is located inside the cage 100 on the upper right side. Furthermore, a ladder 102 and an entrance gate 103 are provided at the rat entrance 101. The entrance gate 103 can be opened or closed, and the ladder 102 can be rotated and stored inside the cage 100, reducing the overall size of the product. In this embodiment, there are two rat entrances 101, two entrance gates 103, and two ladders 102, facilitating rat entry from both sides. Additionally, small ventilation holes are provided on the surface of the bottom plate of the rat-repelling passage, and a bait box 104 is located below the ventilation holes.

[0019] See Figures 2 to 4 The rodent-repelling passage includes a first passage 105, a second passage 106, and a third passage 107 connected in sequence. The inlet of the first passage 105 is the rodent inlet 101, and the outlet of the third passage 107 is the rodent outlet. The first passage 105 is equipped with a sensor for detecting the entry of rodents, and a front push plate 108 for driving rodents to the second passage 106; the second passage 106 is equipped with a side push plate 109 for driving rodents to the third passage 107; and the third passage 107 is equipped with a lifting plate 110 at the horizontal push device for lifting rodents to the rodent outlet.

[0020] The front push plate 108 is slidably installed in the first channel 105 along the front-back direction via a slide rail and a sliding base, and can be driven to reciprocate via a screw and a motor. The side push plate 109 is slidably installed in the second channel 106 along the left-right direction via a slide rail and a sliding base, and can be driven to reciprocate via a screw and a motor. The lifting plate 110 is slidably installed in the third channel 107 along the up-down direction via a slide rail and a sliding base, and can be driven to reciprocate via a screw and a motor. The front push plate 108, the side push plate 109, and the lifting plate 110 all move linearly back and forth, driven by a screw and a motor; alternatively, gear and rack or sprocket and chain drives can also be used. The opening and closing of the rat ingress gate 103 can be achieved independently via a slide rail, spring, and motor, which is existing technology and will not be described further here.

[0021] In this embodiment, the sensing device is a sensor, which is used to sense whether a mouse has entered the first channel 105. The sensor can be located at the first channel 105 or at the second channel 106, as long as it can detect whether a mouse has entered the first channel 105.

[0022] See Figures 5 to 7The disc-shaped rat trapping device includes a rat-catching disc 200 horizontally arranged on the upper part of the cage body 100 and a corresponding pushing device 300. The pushing device 300 is located at the rat exit of the rat-repelling channel, near the right side of the rat-catching disc 200. A rat storage box 400 is located below the other side (left side) of the rat-catching disc 200. The pushing device 300 is used to push the lifted rat onto the rat-catching disc 200, where it is electrocuted. The rat storage box 400 is used to collect dead rats. The rat storage box 400 is slidably installed on the cage body 100. When the top cover is opened, it can be pulled out from the side or front of the cage body 100 for easy removal of dead rats.

[0023] See Figures 5 to 8 The upper surface of the mouse-catching disc 200 is provided with multiple electric mouse slots 201 and a lower mouse hole 202 spaced circumferentially. The lower mouse hole 202 corresponds to the mouse storage box 400, and dead mice can fall into the mouse storage box 400 through the lower mouse hole 202. Each electric mouse slot 201 is provided with an electric shock plate 203. The lower surface of each electric shock plate 203 is provided with a set of energized contacts 204 passing through the electric mouse slot. A set of electrode posts 500 is provided below the mouse-catching disc 200. The electrode posts 500 are used to intermittently contact each energized contact 204 to energize the corresponding electric shock plate 203.

[0024] In this embodiment, the electrode post 500 is fixedly disposed relative to the cage body 100. When the electric shock plate 203 rotates with the mouse-catching disc 200 to the position of the electrode post 500, the electrode post 500 contacts and is energized with the corresponding energized contact 204. Since the electrode post 500 is fixedly disposed at a certain angle position, and the electric shock plate 203 rotates with the mouse-catching disc 200, the two only contact and are energized when the electric shock plate 203 rotates to the position of the electrode post 500. When the electric shock plate 203 leaves the position, the contact is broken, achieving intermittent contact.

[0025] See Figure 6 A rotating frame 600 is provided above the mouse-catching disc 200. The rotating frame 600 and the mouse-catching disc 200 can generate relative rotational motion around the same central axis. A frame opening 601 is opened on the circumferential side wall of the rotating frame 600. The size of the frame opening 601 corresponds to the pushing device 300, which can just block the frame opening 601. When the frame opening 601 is directly opposite the pushing device 300, the pushing device 300 pushes the mouse into the rotating frame 600. Through the relative rotation between the rotating frame 600 and the mouse-catching disc 200, the rotating frame 600 carries the mouse and is shocked when the electrode post 500 contacts the electric shock plate 203, and finally falls into the mouse storage box 400 through the lower mouse hole 202.

[0026] See Figure 5The pushing device 300 includes a pushing plate 301 and a pushing power structure that drives the pushing plate 301 to move horizontally towards or away from the rotating frame 600. The pushing plate 301 is partially surrounded by a U-shaped plate, restricting its reciprocating movement only in the direction of approaching or moving away from the rotating frame 600. The shape of the pushing plate 301 can be an arc-shaped plate corresponding to the shape of the mouse-catching disc 200, which, together with the rotating frame 600, forms a mouse-catching station. When the lifting plate 110 lifts the mouse upward to the bottom of the pushing plate 301, the pushing plate 301 can push the mouse towards the rotating frame 600. The pushing power structure includes a gear 302 and a rack 303. The rack 303 moves in the same direction as the pushing plate 301. The rack 303 is limited by a slide rail and a slider to ensure that it can only reciprocate in a straight line. The rack 303 is fixedly connected to the pushing plate 301. When the motor 304 is running, it drives the rack 303 to move back and forth via the gear 302, thereby driving the flat push plate 301 to move back and forth. Of course, the push plate power structure can also use a screw and a motor to achieve the reciprocating movement of the flat push plate 301.

[0027] See Figure 6 The space within the rotating frame 600 is the electric shock space for the mouse, corresponding to the space of the electric shock plate 203, and slightly larger than the size of the electric shock plate 203. This ensures that the rotating frame 600 can rotate to the position corresponding to each electric shock plate 203. If the number of electric shock plates 203 is small, the size of the electric shock plates 203 will be large, and the corresponding rotating frame 600 can also be correspondingly large; if the number of electric shock plates 203 is large, the size of the electric shock plates 203 will be small, and the corresponding rotating frame 600 can also be correspondingly small. The top and bottom ends of the rotating frame 600 are in contact with the surface of the cage 100. The rotating frame 600 includes an inner upright plate 602 and side upright plates 603 connected to both ends of the inner upright plate 602, forming a fan-shaped structure corresponding to the area of ​​the electric shock plate 203. The outer ends of the side upright plates 603 form the frame opening 601, facilitating the entry of the mouse. The inner upright plate 602 is provided with a connecting plate 604 fixed to the frame driving structure.

[0028] See Figure 6 A rat-blocking structure is fixedly installed on the outer periphery of the rat-catching disc 200. This structure seals the frame opening 601 after it leaves the pushing device 300, thus confining the rat within the rotating frame 600. In this embodiment, the rat-blocking structure consists of two annular panels 700, corresponding to the two outer sides of the rat-catching disc 200, used to block both sides of the outer periphery. When the frame opening 601 leaves the pushing device 300, the annular panels 700 seal the frame opening 601, preventing the rat from escaping through the opening. The top ends of the two annular panels 700 are fixed to the cage body 100, and the bottom ends extend to the outer edge of the rat-catching disc 200. The two right ends correspond to the two ends of the pushing plate 301, and there is a gap between the two left ends for easy removal of the electric shock plate 203.

[0029] The mouse-catching disc 200 is driven to rotate by a disc drive structure, and the rotating frame 600 is driven to rotate by a frame drive structure. The mouse-catching disc 200 and the rotating frame 600 can rotate relative to each other. The rotation angle of the mouse-catching disc 200 and the rotating frame 600 each time is related to the number of electric shock plates 203 and the angle between two connected electric shock plates 203.

[0030] The frame drive structure includes a frame motor 605, the body of which is fixed to the cage. A support sleeve 606 is fixed to the output end of the frame motor 605. The rotation center of the rotating frame 600 (i.e., at the connecting plate 604) is fastened to the support sleeve 606 with screws. The center of the mouse-catching disc 200 can be fitted onto the support sleeve 606 via a bearing. When the frame motor 605 operates, it drives the support sleeve 606 to rotate, thereby causing the rotating frame 600 to rotate.

[0031] The disc drive structure includes a disc motor 205, the motor body of which is fixed to the cage. A drive gear 206 is fixed to the output end of the disc motor 205. The outer circumference of the mouse-catching disc 200 is provided with disc ring teeth 207 that mesh with the drive gear 206. When the disc motor 205 operates, it drives the drive gear 206 to rotate, thereby driving the mouse-catching disc 200 to rotate via the disc ring teeth 207. The disc motor and the frame motor are independently controlled, controlling the rotation of the rotating frame and the mouse-catching disc respectively.

[0032] In this embodiment, there are seven evenly spaced electric mouse slots 201 and one lower mouse hole 202. Seven electric shock plates 203 can be installed inside the mousetrap. If each electric shock plate 203 shocks three times (compared to the commonly used three shocks in the prior art, but not limited to three), the mousetrap can shock a total of 21 times, killing 21 mice. Compared to the prior art where one electric shock plate 203 can only kill three mice, the number of mice killed in this application is increased exponentially, achieving a continuous mouse-catching effect. Of course, the number of electric mouse slots 201 is related to the size of the mouse-catching disc 200, that is, the size of the mousetrap. If the mice to be caught are small, more electric shock plates 203 can be set; if the overall size of the mousetrap is large, more electric shock plates 203 can be set. Therefore, the number of electric shock plates 203 should be comprehensively considered based on the mouse-catching scenario. Preferably, the number of electric shock plates 203 is at least three, which can meet the requirement of continuously electrocuting multiple mice. For example, five electric mouse slots 201 and one lower mouse hole 202 can be evenly distributed. In this case, five electric shock plates 203 can be installed in the mousetrap. If each electric shock plate 203 shocks three times, the mousetrap can shock a total of 15 times, killing 15 mice. Of course, three electric mouse slots 201 and one lower mouse hole 202 can also be evenly distributed. In this case, three electric shock plates 203 can be installed in the mousetrap. If each electric shock plate 203 shocks three times, the mousetrap can shock a total of 9 times, killing 9 mice.

[0033] In this embodiment, the electrode post 500 is fixed near the pushing device 300. When one of the electric shock plates 203 is directly facing the pushing device 300, the energized contact 204 at the bottom of the electric shock plate 203 is in contact with the electrode post 500 and energizes it. When a mouse is driven onto this electric shock plate 203, an electric shock occurs immediately. Of course, the position of the electrode post 500 is not limited to this. After the rotating electric shock plate 203 rotates around its central axis by a preset angle, the energized contact 204 of the electric shock plate 203 can contact the electrode post 500.

[0034] In this embodiment, the surface of the electric shock plate 203 is arranged with positive and negative wires. When a mouse steps on both the positive and negative wires simultaneously, an electric shock is achieved. The energizing contacts 204 of the electric shock plate 203 include positive and negative contacts. The positive contact is connected to the positive wire, and the negative contact is connected to the negative wire. Two electrode posts 500 are provided, one with a positive terminal at its top and the other with a negative terminal at its top. The positive and negative terminals are connected to the discharge control system via wires. When the positive contact of the electric shock plate 203 contacts the positive terminal and the negative contact contacts the negative terminal, contact and energization are achieved.

[0035] To ensure stable contact, the electrode post 500 can be a probe with a telescopic effect, which does not affect the rotation of the electric shock plate 203 while ensuring stable contact with the energized contact 204. Alternatively, a spring can be installed inside the electrode post 500 to allow the terminal at the top to have appropriate telescopic movement.

[0036] The cage 100 is also equipped with a power supply system and a discharge control system. The discharge control system is connected to the positive and negative terminals via wires to supply power to the electric shock plate 203. The discharge control device can be connected to the internal sensor. When the sensor detects a mouse, the discharge control device controls the positive and negative terminals to discharge at high voltage. When the mouse steps on the energized electric shock plate 203, it is killed.

[0037] To increase the reusability of the basic components within the cage 100, the electric shock plate 203 is designed as a replaceable consumable part. Specifically, see: Figure 8 The surface of the mouse trap disc 200 is detachably equipped with an electric shock plate support 208. Electric mouse slots 201 and lower mouse holes 202 are located on the electric shock plate support 208. Each electric shock plate 203 is snapped into the shoulder of the electric mouse slot 201 on the electric shock plate support 208. The surface of the mouse trap disc 200 has clearance holes corresponding to the electric mouse slots 201 and lower mouse holes 202. After all the electric shock plates 203 have been used, the electric shock plate support 208 is removed, all discarded electric shock plates 203 are removed and replaced with new ones, and finally the electric shock plate support 208 is reinstalled on the mouse trap disc 200. The shape of the electric shock plate 203 is basically similar to the shape of the electric mouse slot 201; therefore, the electric shock plate 203 is pressed onto the electric shock plate support 208 by an embedded method.

[0038] See Figure 8 and Figure 9The electric shock plate support 208 has an clearance notch 209 and a corresponding central opening 210. The central opening 210 is located at the center of the electric shock plate support 208, and the clearance notch 209 extends from the edge of the electric shock plate support 208 to the central opening 210. The electric shock plate support 208 also has two vertically deformable spring pieces 211. The bottom of the free end of the spring piece 211 has a locking block 212. The surface of the mouse trap disc 200 has two slots 213, and the two locking blocks 212 can be locked and positioned in the two slots 213. When installing the electric shock plate support 208, first align the clearance notch 209 with the support sleeve 606, so that the support sleeve 606 slides into the central opening 210 through the clearance notch 209, thereby fitting the electric shock plate support 208 onto the support sleeve 606; then rotate the electric shock plate support 208 so that the locking blocks 212 are locked into the slots 213. When replacing or disassembling the electric shock plate 203, simply remove it from the electric shock plate support 208. During installation, the electric shock plate 203 is also snapped onto the step within the electric mouse slot 201 using the same snap-fit ​​method. The electric shock plate support 208 is clamped vertically by the connecting plate 604 of the upper rotating frame 600 and the lower mouse-catching disc 200. Its axial position is limited by the central opening 210 engaging with the support sleeve 606, and its circumferential position is limited by two locking blocks 212 engaging with two locking slots 213. These multiple limiting mechanisms ensure that the electric shock plate support 208 is stably and accurately installed on the mouse-catching disc 200. The outer side of the electric shock plate 203 also features protrusions that facilitate hand operation, making it easy to remove the electric shock plate 203 from the electric shock plate support 208. In this embodiment, the clearance notch 209 corresponds to the position of the electric mouse slot 201, therefore the clearance notch 209 is the electric mouse slot 201. The central opening is a semi-circular hole that can be axially overlapped with the support sleeve 606.

[0039] The cage body 100 has an upper cover that can be flipped up or to the side to open, exposing the mouse trap 200 and the mouse storage box 400 for easy replacement of the electric shock plate 203 and removal of the mouse storage box 400. One end of the upper cover is rotatably mounted on the cage body, and the other end of the upper cover is connected to the cage body by a snap-fit.

[0040] The mousetrap is equipped with a control system. The control system includes a main control board, which is electrically connected to the sensors, the mouse-entry gate 103, the motors for the front push plate 108, the side push plate 109, the lifting plate 110, the horizontal push device 300, the rotating frame 600, the rotating disc, and the discharge control system. Based on signals from the sensors, the control system controls the operation of each motor and the discharge system according to a preset timing sequence, achieving fully automatic continuous mouse trapping.

[0041] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: (a) Rat-repelling stage: When a rat enters the first passage 105 through the rat entrance 101 via the ladder 102, the sensor detects the rat's entry and the control system closes the rat entrance gate 103, trapping the rat inside the cage 100. Next, the front push plate 108 moves backward, driving the rat from the first passage 105 to the second passage 106; subsequently, the side push plate 109 moves from left to right, driving the rat from the second passage 106 to the lifting plate 110 in the third passage 107; finally, the lifting plate 110 rises, lifting the rat to the rat exit, at which point the rat is directly in front of the horizontal push device 300.

[0042] (ii) Mouse entry stage: At this time, the rotating frame 600 rotates to a position where its frame opening 601 is directly opposite the horizontal pushing device 300 to wait for the mouse to arrive. After the mouse is lifted by the lifting plate 110 to the front of the horizontal pushing device 300, the horizontal pushing device 300 extends forward and pushes the mouse into the inside of the rotating frame 600 through the frame opening 601, so that the mouse is constrained on the mouse trapping disc 200 by the side wall of the rotating frame 600 and the horizontal pushing plate 301, and the mouse will come into contact with the electric shock plate 203.

[0043] (III) Electric Shock Stage: Before the mouse is pushed, the energized contact 204 at the bottom of the electric shock plate 203 is in contact with the electrode post 500, and the electric shock plate 203 is energized and waits there; when the mouse is pushed to this electric shock plate 203, the mouse steps on the positive and negative wires of the electric shock plate 203 at the same time, forming a circuit, and the mouse is trapped here and is electrocuted to death. (iv) The stage of rat demise: The pushing device 300 retracts to its original position, the rotating frame 600 rotates, carrying the dead rat past the subsequent electric shock plate 203 (at this time, the other electric shock plates 203 are not energized), and finally reaches the location of the rat hole 202. The rat falls into the rat storage box 400 through the rat hole 202, completing one rat-catching cycle. The above actions are repeated, and the same electric shock plate 203 is reused twice more. After the electric shock plate 203 has been used a total of three times, it is discarded, and the next action is performed.

[0044] (v) Continuous operation: First, by rotating the mouse-catching disc 200, the next electric shock plate 203 is pre-rotated to the position corresponding to the pushing device 300, cooperating with the electrode post 500 to achieve energization, and the frame opening 601 of the rotating frame 600 is aligned with the pushing device 300 again. When the next mouse is lifted to the exit point, the pushing device 300 pushes the mouse back into the rotating frame 600, repeating the above mouse-entry and electric shock actions. Then, the mouse-catching disc 200 and the rotating frame 600 move. The mouse-catching disc 200 rotates at a certain angle, so that the lower mouse hole 202 is aligned above the mouse storage box 400. The rotating frame 600 rotates, carrying the dead mouse past the subsequent electric shock plate 203, and finally reaches the position of the lower mouse hole 202. The mouse falls into the mouse storage box 400 from the lower mouse hole 202, completing one mouse-catching cycle. Multiple electric shock plates 203 on the mouse-catching disc 200 are used in sequence, and each electric shock plate 203 can be used to shock multiple times to achieve continuous mouse catching.

[0045] Example 2: This embodiment is basically similar to Embodiment 1 in structure and working principle, the main difference being that the electric shock plate support 208 is not provided in this embodiment. See also Figure 10 In this embodiment, the electric mouse slot 201 and the lower mouse hole 202 are directly provided on the surface of the mouse-catching disc 200, and each electric shock plate 203 is directly snapped into the electric mouse slot 201 on the mouse-catching disc 200. When it is necessary to remove the electric shock plate 203, simply open the top cover, then reach inside and remove each electric shock plate 203. The mouse-catching disc 200 can rotate, so each electric shock plate 203 can be removed individually. During installation, the electric shock plate 203 is directly installed onto the step inside the electric mouse slot 201 using the same snap-fit ​​method.

[0046] Example 3: This embodiment works similarly to Embodiment 1, with the main difference being: See Figures 11 to 14 In this embodiment, the mouse-catching disc 200 is fixedly set relative to the cage body 100. Therefore, the lower mouse hole 202 always corresponds to the top of the mouse storage box 400. When the electrode post 500 rotates relative to the mouse-catching disc 200 to the position of the electric shock plate 203, the electrode post 500 contacts the corresponding energized contact 204 and is energized. The electrode post 500 is driven to rotate through the electrode post drive structure, and the rotating frame 600 is driven to rotate through the frame drive structure. The rotating frame 600 can rotate relative to the mouse-catching disc 200.

[0047] The frame drive structure includes a frame motor 605, the body of which is fixed to the cage body. A support sleeve 606 is fixed to the output end of the frame motor 605. The rotation center of the rotating frame 600 is fixed to the support sleeve 606. The center of the mouse trap disc 200 is fitted outside the support sleeve 606. The pole drive structure includes a pole motor 501, the body of which is fixed to the cage body. A drive gear 502 is fixed to the output end of the pole motor 501. A passive gear disc 503 is also fitted outside the support sleeve 606. The passive gear disc 503 meshes with the drive gear. The outer periphery is provided with a gear disc ring tooth that meshes with the drive gear 502. The electrode post 500 is fixed on the passive gear disc 503.

[0048] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: Before the electric mouse is activated, the two electrode posts 500 are rotated to the bottom of the corresponding electric shock plate 203 by the electrode post driving structure, and make contact with the corresponding energized contact 204 to realize the power supply. Then, the rotating frame 600 is driven by the frame driving structure to move the mouse to the energized electric shock plate 203 for killing. Finally, the rotating frame 600 pushes the dead mouse to the lower mouse hole 202 and drops it into the mouse storage box 400.

[0049] In this embodiment, the mouse-catching disc 200 is installed in a detachable manner. The mouse-catching disc 200 has an avoidance notch 209 and a corresponding central opening 210. The central opening 210 is located at the center of the mouse-catching disc 200, and the avoidance notch 209 extends from the edge of the mouse-catching disc 200 to the central opening 210. The mouse-catching disc 200 also has a circumferential limiting structure, which includes elastic side plates 801 on both sides of the mouse-catching disc 200. Limiting planes 802 corresponding to and contacting the elastic side plates 801 are provided on both sides of the mouse-catching disc 200. Horizontal support plates are also provided on the elastic side plates 801 to support the bottom edge of the mouse-catching disc 200. The vertical position of the mouse-catching disc 200 is clamped by the connecting plate 604 of the upper rotating frame 600 and the lower support plate (fitted outside the support sleeve 606). Its center position is limited by the cooperation between the center opening 210 and the support sleeve 606. The two sides of the center opening 210 are provided with spring pieces 211, which can lock the center opening outside the support sleeve 606 so that the center opening 210 is coaxially fitted with the support sleeve 606. Its circumferential position is limited by the cooperation between the elastic side plate 801 and the limiting plate 802. Therefore, when the support sleeve 606 rotates, the mouse-catching disc is limited by the abutment contact between the elastic side plate 801 and the limiting plate 802 and will not rotate with the support sleeve 606.

[0050] When the mouse-catching disc 200 needs to be disassembled, it is forcefully rotated to overcome the elastic force of the elastic side plate 801, causing the elastic side plate 801 to deform and thus rotate the mouse-catching disc 200. Then, the mouse-catching disc 200 is removed through the clearance notch 209. When the mouse-catching disc 200 needs to be installed, it is first passed through the support sleeve 606 via the clearance notch 209, then the central opening 210 is fitted onto the support sleeve 606. Finally, the mouse-catching disc 200 is rotated so that the limiting plane 802 contacts the elastic side plate 801, thereby achieving circumferential positioning of the mouse-catching disc 200.

[0051] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. Achieve continuous and efficient rodent trapping, significantly increasing the number of rodents killed. By circumferentially spaced multiple electric mouse slots 201 (e.g., 3, 5, or 7) on the mouse-catching disc 200, and each slot 201 containing an electric shock plate 203, and in conjunction with a rotatable frame 600, multiple electric shock plates 203 can be installed simultaneously in one mouse trap. Each electric shock plate 203 can be reused multiple times (e.g., 3 times), resulting in a total kill count of 9, 15, or 21 or more mice, far exceeding the limit of 3-4 mice killed by a single electric shock plate 203 in existing technologies. When a mouse is electrocuted and falls into the mouse storage box 400, the rotating frame 600 automatically moves the next mouse to the next available electric shock plate 203 or to the next usage cycle of the same electric shock plate 203, achieving truly continuous mouse trapping.

[0052] 2. The 203 shock plate is easy to replace and has low maintenance costs. By setting a detachable electric shock plate support 208 (Example 1), or directly attaching the electric shock plate 203 to the mouse trap disc 200 (Example 2), or a detachable mouse trap disc 200 (Example 3), when all the electric shock plates 203 are used up and need to be replaced, the operator only needs to open the top cover, remove the electric shock plate support 208, or directly remove each electric shock plate 203, or disassemble the mouse trap disc 200 to replace all the electric shock plates 203.

[0053] 3. The electric shock plate 203 always maintains the best electric shock effect, avoiding current attenuation. Because each shock plate 203 can be switched to the next shock plate 203 after multiple uses, the problem of current drop caused by rat carcasses piling up or charred fur adhering to the surface is avoided. Each time a rat is shocked, it is on a clean, unused shock plate 203 surface, ensuring a stable shock current and guaranteeing that each rat is killed accurately and quickly.

[0054] 4. Multi-station rotary switching, compact structure, and high degree of automation. The relative rotation between the rotating frame 600 and the mouse-catching disc 200, combined with either a fixed electrode post 500 (Embodiment 1) or a rotating electrode post 500 (Embodiment 3), enables the orderly switching between the mouse-entry station, the electric shock station, and the mouse-falling station. The entire process requires only one rotating frame 600 and one mouse-catching disc 200, resulting in a compact structure and small footprint. With the help of a control system and sensing devices, fully automatic continuous mouse catching can be achieved without manual intervention.

[0055] 5. Multi-mode design adapts to different application scenarios Example 1: The mouse trapping disc 200 rotates and the electrode post 500 is fixed, which is suitable for scenarios where there are many electric shock plates 203 and rapid switching is required; Example 2: The electric shock plate support 208 is omitted, resulting in a simpler structure and lower cost; Example 3: The mouse-catching disc 200 is fixed and the electrode post 500 rotates, which is suitable for scenarios where the mouse-catching disc 200 is not easy to rotate or where a simplified drive structure is required.
