Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of mousetrapping equipment, and in particular to a mousetrapping device. Background Art
[0002] Rats, a species of rodent in the order Rodentia and family Muridae, are often found near sewers, kitchens, garbage dumps, and trash cans. They can spread pathogens such as plague, hemorrhagic fever, leptospirosis, typhus, and tick-borne relapsing fever. Rats also chew books, clothing, and furniture, impacting human living environments.
[0003] Traditional rodent control typically involves using mousetraps to capture mice. However, even after being caught in a trap, the mouse is not dead, requiring manual extermination. Afterward, manual removal of the mouse from the trap and resetting the trap are required, making the rodent control process cumbersome. Utility Model Content
[0004] Based on this, the present invention provides a mousetrap device that can solve or at least alleviate the above technical problems.
[0005] The utility model provides a mouse catching device, comprising:
[0006] The housing is provided with an internal passage and is movably connected with a locking member;
[0007] a striking member slidably connected to the housing along a predetermined direction and having a first position and a second position relative to the housing; the striking member extends into the internal passage to a greater extent in the first position than in the second position; the locking member is used to lock the striking member in the second position;
[0008] at least one first elastic member connected to the striking member, configured to apply elastic force to the striking member so as to enable the striking member to slide from the second position to the first position; and
[0009] A reset push block is slidably connected to the shell and is connected to a reset drive member; the reset push block is used to push the impact member to the second position under the drive of the reset drive member; the reset push block is also used to leave the impact member in a direction close to the internal channel under the drive of the reset drive member.
[0010] Before catching a mouse, the aforementioned mousetrap locks the striking member in the second position by the locking member, allowing the mouse to pass through the internal passage without being blocked by the striking member. When the mouse enters the internal passage, the locking member is triggered by the mouse to unlock the striking member. After unlocking, the striking member, under the elastic force of the first elastic member, is ejected into the internal passage from the second position toward the first position, violently impacting the mouse in the passage and killing it. After the mouse is killed, the reset driver drives the reset push block to slide from the first position toward the second position. The reset push block pushes the striking member toward the second position, automatically separating the striking member from the mouse's body. After reaching the second position, the striking member is relocked by the locking member. Thereafter, driven by the reset driver, the reset push block moves away from the striking member toward the internal passage. Once the mouse's body has fallen out of the internal passage or has been cleared from the passage, the mousetrap is ready for the next kill, thereby simplifying the rodent control process. Before the impact piece is ejected into the internal channel for the next time, since the reset push block and the impact piece are in a separated and spaced state, the impact piece will not be blocked by the reset push block or the reset drive piece when it is ejected into the internal channel, so that the impact piece can have a greater ejection speed, produce a more violent impact on the mice in the internal channel, and improve the success rate of catching and killing mice.
[0011] In one embodiment, the shell is connected to a bracket and a limit frame; the bracket and the limit frame are arranged opposite to each other, and the impact member is slidably passed through the bracket and the limit frame; at least one of the bracket and the limit frame is provided with a guide groove, and the extension direction of the guide groove corresponds to the predetermined direction; the impact member is connected to a slider, and the slider is slidably accommodated in the guide groove.
[0012] In one embodiment, the impact member includes an impact head and a support body; the support body is connected to one end of the impact head away from the internal channel; the support body is movably arranged between the bracket and the limit frame; the slider is connected to the support body.
[0013] In one embodiment, the at least one first elastic member includes two torsion elastic members; the two torsion elastic members are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the support body; and the two ends of any one of the two torsion elastic members are respectively connected to the support body and the shell.
[0014] In one embodiment, it further includes a meshing rack and a gear; the rack is slidably arranged relative to the housing; the reset drive member is positioned and connected to the housing, and has an output shaft connected to the gear; the rack is connected to the reset push block.

[0016] In one embodiment, the invention further comprises a bracket connected to the shell; the bracket is provided with an orientation groove; the rack is slidably accommodated in the orientation groove; and the reset drive member is connected to the bracket.

Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0035] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0036] Figures 1 to 10 FIG. 1 shows a mouse trapping device 100 according to at least one embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The mouse trapping device 100 is used to catch and kill mice to achieve the purpose of preventing and controlling rodent pests.
[0037] Specifically, combined Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the mousetrap device 100 includes a housing 20, a locking member 22, a striking member 30, a reset push block 51, a reset driver 50, and at least one first elastic member 40. The housing 20 is provided with an internal passage 21. The locking member 22 is movably connected to the housing 20. The striking member 30 is slidably connected to the housing 20 along a predetermined direction F1. The striking member 30 has a first position and a second position relative to the housing 20. In the first position, the striking member 30 extends further into the internal passage 21 than in the second position. The locking member 22 is used to lock the striking member 30 in the second position. At least one first elastic member 40 is connected to the striking member 30 and is used to apply an elastic force to the striking member 30, which causes the striking member 30 to slide from the second position to the first position. The reset push block 51 is slidably connected to the housing 20 and is coupled to the reset driver 50. The reset push block 51 is used to push the striking member 30 to the second position under the drive of the reset driver 50. The reset push block 51 is further used to move away from the impact member 30 in a direction close to the internal channel 21 under the driving of the reset driving member 50 .
[0038] In the mouse-catching device 100 of the present application, before catching and killing a mouse, the impact member 30 is locked in the second position by the locking member 22, so that the mouse will not be blocked by the impact member 30 when passing through the internal channel 21. When the mouse crawls into the internal channel 21, the locking member 22 is triggered by the mouse to unlock the impact member 30. After being unlocked, due to the elastic force of the first elastic member 40, the impact member 30 is ejected into the internal channel 21 in the direction from the second position to the first position, and violently impacts the mouse in the internal channel 21, causing the mouse to be caught and killed. After the mouse is killed, the reset drive member 50 drives the reset push block 51 to slide in the direction from the first position to the second position. The impact member 30 is pushed toward the second position by the reset push block 51, and the impact member 30 automatically separates from the body of the mouse. After the striking member 30 reaches the second position, it is locked again by the locking member 22. Thereafter, driven by the reset drive member 50, the reset push block 51 moves away from the striking member 30 in a direction closer to the internal passage 21. When the mouse's body slides out of the internal passage 21 or is cleared out of the internal passage 21, the mousetrap 100 is ready for the next killing action, thereby simplifying the rodent control process. Before the striking member 30 is ejected into the internal passage 21 for the next time, since the reset push block 51 and the striking member 30 are in a separated and spaced state, the striking member 30 will not be blocked by the reset push block 51 or the reset drive member 50 when it is ejected into the internal passage 21. This allows the striking member 30 to have a greater ejection speed, resulting in a more intense impact on the mouse in the internal passage 21, thereby increasing the probability of successfully killing the mouse.
[0039] In some embodiments, combined Figures 7 to 8b As shown, the housing 20 is connected to a bracket 23 and a limiting frame 24. The bracket 23 and limiting frame 24 are arranged opposite each other, and the impact member 30 slides through the bracket 23 and limiting frame 24. Specifically, the bracket 23 and limiting frame 24 are respectively positioned and connected to the housing 20, and are in a stable position relative to the housing 20, thereby limiting the sliding direction of the impact member 30.
[0040] Furthermore, at least one of the bracket 23 and the limiting frame 24 is provided with a guide groove 231, and the extension direction of the guide groove 231 corresponds to the predetermined direction F1. The impact member 30 is connected to a slider 31, and the slider 31 is slidably accommodated in the guide groove 231. Specifically, the slider 31 slides with the impact member 30. Since the slider 31 is slidably accommodated in the guide groove 231, and the extension direction of the guide groove 231 corresponds to the predetermined direction F1, the sliding direction of the impact member 30 is also limited by the guide groove 231, which is conducive to improving the sliding stability of the impact member 30. Specifically, the extension direction of the guide groove 231 is parallel or approximately parallel to the predetermined direction F1.
[0041] In some embodiments, combined Figure 8b and Figure 9 As shown, the impact member 30 includes an impact head 32 and a support body 33. The support body 33 is connected to one end of the impact head 32 away from the internal channel 21. The support body 33 is movably arranged between the bracket 23 and the limit frame 24. The slider 31 is connected to the support body 33. Specifically, the impact head 32 is roughly cylindrical, and the impact head 32 is used to produce an impact effect on the mouse in the internal channel 21. The support body 33 is roughly prismatic, so as to facilitate limiting the sliding direction of the impact member 30 by the bracket 23 and the limit frame 24. Since the slider 31 is connected to the support body 33, in the process of the reset push block 51 pushing the impact member 30 to the second position, the reset push block 51 can be in contact with the slider 31.
[0042] Further, combined with Figure 8b As shown, along the relative direction between the bracket 23 and the limit frame 24, which is perpendicular to the predetermined direction F1, the slider 31 is inserted into the guide groove 231 along the relative direction, and the size of the support body 33 in the relative direction corresponds to the internal relative distance between the bracket 23 and the limit frame 24, thereby limiting the slider 31 from escaping from the guide groove 231.
[0043] More specifically, combined Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the slider 31 has a first abutting surface 311, and the reset push block 51 has a second abutting surface 511. When the reset push block 51 pushes the striking member 30 to the second position, the first abutting surface 311 and the second abutting surface 511 abut against each other to transmit the pushing force of the reset push block 51 on the striking member 30. After the reset push block 51 leaves the striking member 30 in a direction approaching the internal passage 21, the first abutting surface 311 and the second abutting surface 511 are spaced apart, and the distance between the first and second positions can be corresponding to the distance between the first and second positions, so as to minimize the impact member 30 from being blocked during the process of being ejected into the internal passage 21.
[0044] Further, combined with Figure 8b As shown, when the reset push block 51 moves away from the impact member 30 in a direction close to the internal channel 21 under the drive of the reset driving member 50 , it can be understood that a separation relationship is formed between the first abutting surface 311 and the second abutting surface 511 .
[0045] In some embodiments, combined Figure 8a and Figure 8bAs shown, the mousetrap 100 further includes a meshing rack 52 and a gear 53. The rack 52 is slidably mounted relative to the housing 20. The reset driver 50 is positioned and connected to the housing 20 and includes an output shaft coupled to the gear 53. The rack 52 is connected to the reset push block 51. Specifically, the rack 52 slides parallel or approximately parallel to a predetermined direction F1. The rotation axis of the gear 53 is in a stable position relative to the housing 20. When the gear 53 rotates under the drive of the output shaft of the reset driver 50, the rack 52 slides relative to the housing 20 due to meshing. As the rack 52 slides, it drives the reset push block 51 to move. By controlling the rotation direction of the gear 53 by the reset driver 50, the reset push block 51 can slide away from the internal passage 21 and push the impact member 30 to the second position. Alternatively, the reset push block 51 can slide toward the internal passage 21 and separate from the impact member 30 in the second position.
[0046] More specifically, combined Figure 8b As shown, the rack 52 and the reset push block 51 are arranged on opposite sides of the bracket 23. The reset push block 51 is connected to the rack 52 after passing through the guide groove 231, so that the rack 52 and the reset push block 51 can slide relative to the housing 20. More specifically, the rack 52 and the reset push block 51 are fixedly connected by fasteners.
[0047] In some embodiments, combined Figure 8a and Figure 8b As shown, the bracket 23 is provided with an orientation slot 232. The rack 52 is slidably received within the orientation slot 232. The reset driver 50 is connected to the bracket 23. Specifically, the rack 52 has a plurality of protruding teeth configured to mesh with the gear 53. The gear 53 is disposed on one side of the bracket 23. The relative orientation between the gears 53 is perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to the predetermined direction F1. The orientation slot 232 is open toward the gear 53, with the protruding teeth exposed through this open position. The main portion of the rack 52 is received within the orientation slot 232.
[0048] More specifically, combined Figure 8a As shown, the bracket 23 is positioned and connected to the housing 20. The reset driver 50 is mounted on the bracket 23. Furthermore, the gear 53 is anti-rotationally connected to the output shaft of the reset driver 50. Since the axis of the output shaft of the reset driver 50 is in a stable position relative to each other, the gear 53 and the rack 52 can maintain meshing.
[0049] More specifically, the reset driving component 50 is a motor, a rotary cylinder or other driving components capable of driving the gear 53 to rotate.
[0050] In some embodiments, combined Figure 8a and Figure 8bAs shown, the mousetrap device 100 also includes a first stroke limiter 54 and a second stroke limiter 55. The end of the rack 52 away from the internal channel 21 forms a triggering cooperation with the second stroke limiter 55. The end of the rack 52 close to the internal channel 21 forms a triggering cooperation with the first stroke limiter 54. The first stroke limiter 54 and the second stroke limiter 55 respectively form a signal feedback cooperation with the reset drive member 50. Specifically, during the sliding process of the reset push block 51 away from the internal channel 21, when the impact member 30 is pushed to the second position, the second stroke limiter 55 is triggered by one end of the rack 52 and triggers the reset drive member 50. Under the triggering of the second stroke limiter 55, the reset drive member 50 stops rotating in the original direction. Then, the reset drive member 50 automatically rotates in the opposite direction, causing the reset push block 51 to slide in the direction close to the internal channel 21. When the reset push block 51 maintains a sufficient distance from the slider 31, the first stroke limiter 54 is triggered by the other end of the rack 52 and triggers the reset driver 50. Under the triggering of the first stroke limiter 54, the reset driver 50 stops rotating.
[0051] More specifically, the triggering mechanism between the end of the rack 52 away from the internal passage 21 and the second travel limiter 55 can be mechanical abutment, photoelectric induction, or Hall effect induction. The second travel limiter 55 can be a travel switch, a photoelectric sensor, or a Hall effect sensor. More specifically, the triggering mechanism between the end of the rack 52 closer to the internal passage 21 and the first travel limiter 54 can be mechanical abutment, photoelectric induction, or Hall effect induction. The first travel limiter 54 can be a travel switch, a photoelectric sensor, or a Hall effect sensor.
[0052] Further, combined with Figure 8b As shown, the directional slot 232 is open at both ends along the predetermined direction F1, so that both ends of the rack 52 can slide to be exposed outside the bracket 23 respectively, which is conducive to the rack 52 triggering the first stroke limiter 54 or the second stroke limiter 55.
[0053] In some other embodiments, the first stroke limiter 54 and the second stroke limiter 55 may also directly detect the position of the reset push block 51 .
[0054] In other embodiments, the rack 52 may also be replaced by a sliding component that can move back and forth under the traction of a traction rope or a traction belt.
[0055] In some embodiments, combined Figures 5 to 7As shown, the mousetrap device 100 further includes an unlocking assembly 60 and a sensing trigger 70. One end of the locking member 22 is engaged with the striking member 30. The unlocking assembly 60 is used to push the other end of the locking member 22, causing the locking member 22 to move. When the locking member 22 moves, one end of the locking member 22 is disengaged from the striking member 30 in the second position, thereby allowing the striking member 30 to slide toward the first position and eject into the internal passage 21. More specifically, the locking member 22 is rotatably connected to the housing 20. When the unlocking assembly 60 pushes the other end of the locking member 22, one end of the locking member 22 rotates away from the striking member 30, thereby disengaging the locking member 30.
[0056] Specifically, combined Figure 7 As shown, the striking member 30 includes a protrusion 34 connected to one side of the support body 33, and one end of the locking member 22 is roughly hook-shaped. A second elastic member 25 is in contact between one end of the locking member 22 and the housing 20. When the striking member 30 moves from the first position to the second position, the protrusion 34 and one end of the locking member 22 produce abutment. Under the guidance of the contact slope, one end of the locking member 22 compresses the second elastic member 25. After the protrusion 34 passes through one end of the locking member 22, the protrusion 34 is locked by the snap engagement of one end of the locking member 22, and the striking member 30 cannot slide to the first position. When the unlocking component 60 pushes the other end of the locking member 22, one end of the locking member 22 compresses the second elastic member 25 and leaves the position where it can block the protrusion 34. The striking member 30 is then ejected into the internal channel 21 under the elastic force of the first elastic member 40.
[0057] Specifically, the induction trigger member 70 is used to trigger the unlocking component 60 to operate when the mouse enters the internal channel 21 , causing the unlocking component 60 to push the other end of the locking member 22 .
[0058] In some embodiments, combined Figure 7 As shown, the unlocking assembly 60 includes an unlocking drive member 61 and a trigger block 62. The unlocking drive member 61 is positioned and connected to the housing 20, and the unlocking drive member 61 has an output shaft. The trigger block 62 is connected to the output shaft of the unlocking drive member 61, and the trigger block 62 is used to push the other end of the locking member 22. Specifically, when the triggering member 70 is triggered, the output shaft of the unlocking drive member 61 rotates and drives the trigger block 62 to swing. When the trigger block 62 swings, it pushes the other end of the locking member 22, so that one end of the locking member 22 is unlocked from the engagement and locking with the impact member 30. Specifically, the trigger block 62 is roughly cam-shaped.
[0059] More specifically, the unlocking driving member 61 is a motor, a rotary cylinder or other driving member capable of driving the gear 53 to rotate.
[0060] Further, combined with Figure 7As shown, the unlocking assembly 60 further includes a positioning plate 63 connected to the housing 20. The positioning plate 63 cooperates with the housing 20 to jointly limit the main body of the unlocking drive member 61.
[0061] Further, combined with Figure 7 As shown, the unlocking assembly 60 also includes a third travel limiter 64, which forms a signal feedback cooperation with the unlocking driver 61. When the trigger block 62 rotates a certain angle along the other end near the locking member 22, so that the locking member 22 contacts the locking member 30, the unlocking driver 61 drives the trigger block 62 to rotate in the opposite direction, providing reset space for the other end of the locking member 22. After the trigger block 62 rotates to a certain angle in the opposite direction, the third travel limiter 64 is triggered by the trigger block 62 and generates feedback to the unlocking driver 61. Under the action of the signal from the third travel limiter 64, the unlocking driver 61 stops rotating. Specifically, the third travel limiter 64 can be a travel switch, a photoelectric sensor, or a Hall sensor.
[0062] In some embodiments, combined Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the induction trigger member 70 has a induction end, and the induction trigger member 70 faces the inner channel 21 , so that after the mouse enters the inner channel 21 , the induction trigger member 70 can promptly identify the mouse and trigger the unlocking component 60 .
[0063] In some embodiments, the inductive trigger 70 includes a PIR sensor 71. Specifically, the PIR sensor 71 is configured to detect infrared radiation emitted by a mouse, sensing motion by detecting the infrared radiation naturally emitted by the mouse. Upon detecting infrared radiation emitted by the mouse, the PIR sensor 71 triggers the unlocking assembly 60. More specifically, the PIR sensor 71 detects changes in infrared radiation in the environment based on the pyroelectric effect. More specifically, the PIR sensor 71 comprises a passive infrared sensor.
[0064] In some embodiments, the inductive trigger 70 includes an infrared sensor 72. Specifically, the infrared sensor 72 includes a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter transmits infrared detection light to the receiver. The transmitter and receiver are positioned opposite each other within the internal passage 21, or a space within the internal passage 21 is provided between the transmitter and receiver. When a mouse passes between the transmitter and receiver, the infrared detection light is blocked by the mouse. When the receiver cannot receive the infrared detection light, the infrared sensor 72 triggers the unlocking assembly 60.
[0065] In some embodiments, the induction trigger 70 includes a PIR sensing element 71 and an infrared sensing element 72 , which can complement each other and more reliably identify the situation where a mouse enters the internal passage 21 .
[0066] In some embodiments, combined Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the first elastic member 40 comprises a torsion elastic member. The torsion elastic member includes a first torsion arm 41, a second torsion arm 42, and a torsion body 43. The torsion body 43 is connected between the first torsion arm 41 and the second torsion arm 42. Specifically, the first torsion arm 41 is hooked to the support body 33, and the second torsion arm 42 is hooked to the housing 20. When the impact member 30 is in the second position, the torsion body 43 is in a contracted state, causing the first torsion arm 41 and the second torsion arm 42 to swing relative to each other, thereby providing elastic force to the support body 33. More specifically, the torsion elastic member is a torsion spring.
[0067] In some embodiments, combined Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, at least one first elastic member 40 includes two torsion elastic members. The two torsion elastic members are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the support body 33. The two ends of any one of the two torsion elastic members are respectively connected to the support body 33 and the housing 20. Specifically, the support body 33 is arranged between the two torsion elastic members, and the relative direction between the two torsion elastic members is parallel or approximately parallel to the predetermined direction F1. Because the two torsion elastic members simultaneously apply elastic force to the support body 33, the support body 33 can be subjected to a larger elastic force, increasing the speed of the impact head 32 when hitting the mouse, resulting in a more violent impact on the mouse in the internal channel 21. Specifically, the two ends of the torsion elastic member are the first torsion arm 41 and the second torsion arm 42.
[0068] Specifically, combined Figure 9 As shown, the support body 33 is provided with a locking hole 331, into which the first torsion arm 41 of the torsion elastic member is inserted. Furthermore, locking holes 331 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the support body 33. The end of the first torsion arm 41 is bent and inserted into the locking hole 331. More specifically, the end of the second torsion arm 42 of one of the torsion elastic members is bent and inserted into the housing 20.
[0069] In some other embodiments, the first elastic member 40 may also be a compression spring. Specifically, one end of the first elastic member 40 may abut against the end of the support body 33 away from the internal channel 21 , and the other end of the first elastic member 40 may abut against the housing 20 .
[0070] In some embodiments, combined Figure 6 and Figure 8aAs shown, the mousetrap device 100 further includes a circuit module 80. The circuit module 80 is electrically connected between the inductive trigger 70 and the unlocking assembly 60. The circuit module 80 controls the movement of the unlocking assembly 60 based on the signal feedback from the inductive trigger 70. Specifically, the circuit module 80 is electrically connected between the inductive trigger 70 and the unlocking driver 61. Furthermore, the circuit module 80 is electrically connected to the reset driver 50, the first travel limiter 54, the second travel limiter 55, and the third travel limiter 64. More specifically, the circuit module 80 is entirely or partially constructed using a PCB structure.
[0071] Specifically, combined Figure 6 and Figure 8a As shown, the mousetrap 100 further includes an electrical mounting plate 81 positioned and connected to the housing 20. The circuit module 80 is mounted on the electrical mounting plate 81. Furthermore, the end of the second torsion arm 42 of one of the torsion elastic members is bent and inserted into the electrical mounting plate 81. The stopper 24 abuts against the second torsion arm 42, thereby preventing the end of the second torsion arm 42 from separating from the electrical mounting plate 81.
[0072] In some embodiments, combined Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the mousetrap 100 further includes a power supply 82, which is used to provide power to at least one of the circuit module 80, the reset driver 50, and the unlock driver 61. Specifically, the power supply 82 can be a DC power source such as a lithium battery, a supercapacitor, or a battery, or an AC power source.
[0073] In some embodiments, the power supply 82 is rechargeable. Furthermore, after being fully charged, the power supply 82 can output enough power to allow the reset driver 50 to reset the impact member 30 more than 100 times. Furthermore, the reset operation of the impact member 30 can be understood as pushing the impact member 30 from the first position to the second position, overcoming the elastic force of the first elastic member 40, until the impact member 30 is locked by the locking member 22.
[0074] In some embodiments, the circuit module 80 is electrically connected to a switch control element. When the switch control element is turned on, the circuit module 80 triggers the reset driver 50 to operate. Driven by the reset driver 50, the reset pusher 51 pushes the striking element 30 to the second position, locking the striking element 30 in the second position by the locking element 22. Simultaneously, the mousetrap 100 enters a standby state. More specifically, the switch control element is a rocker-type switch.
[0075] In some embodiments, the circuit module 80 is electrically connected to a PIR sensor 71 and an infrared sensor 72. In standby mode, the infrared sensor 72 is activated to accurately detect whether a mouse has reached a position where it can be impacted by the impact member 30. When the infrared detection beam is blocked by the mouse, the infrared sensor 72 generates feedback to the circuit module 80. Subsequently, the circuit module 80 triggers the unlocking assembly 60. After being released by the latch 22, the impact member 30 is ejected into the internal passage 21 by the elastic force of the first elastic member 40, impacting the mouse. More specifically, each time the impact member 30 is released by the latch 22, after an interval, the reset driver 50, via the reset push block 51, pushes the impact member 30 back to the second position, locking it again with the latch 22. More specifically, the interval can be 1 second, 3 seconds, 5 seconds, 8 seconds, 10 seconds, 13 seconds, 15 seconds, 20 seconds, or another length of time that increases the mouse lethality.
[0076] Specifically, if the PIR sensor 71 does not detect infrared radiation from a mouse within a predetermined period of time after the start of the standby mode, the mousetrap 100 enters a sleep mode after the predetermined period. In the sleep mode, the infrared sensor 72 is de-energized, reducing the power consumption of the power supply 82 and enabling the mousetrap 100 to last up to two months. In the sleep mode, the PIR sensor 71 remains active, and if it detects infrared radiation from a mouse, the mousetrap 100 returns to the standby mode. More specifically, the predetermined period can range from one minute to one hour.
[0077] In some embodiments, combined Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the housing 20 includes a first outer shell 26 and a second outer shell 27. The first and second outer shells 26 and 27 together enclose a space capable of accommodating at least the impact member 30, the first elastic member 40, the reset push block 51, and the reset driver 50. Specifically, the first and second outer shells 26 and 27 further enclose an internal passage 21, with an opening 211 formed in the first outer shell 26. The second outer shell 27 can be used to mount a lure.
[0078] More specifically, the bracket 23, the limiting frame 24 and the electrical fixing plate 81 are fixed to the second housing 27 by fasteners. More specifically, the fasteners are screws.
[0079] Further, combined with Figure 2 As shown, housing 20 also includes a mounting plate 28. First housing 26 and second housing 27 are respectively connected to mounting plate 28. Mounting plate 28 is used to securely connect to a wall or other supporting structure, thereby securing mousetrap 100 in a fixed position. More specifically, when mounting plate 28 is secured, opening 211 of internal passage 21 faces downward.
