Detailed Implementation

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Example: A portable mousetrap, such as Figures 1-8As shown, the device includes a base plate 1, a door frame 2, a right-angle door panel 21, a sealing plate 3, a first side panel 4, a second side panel 5, a limiting ring 51, a top plate 6, a guide rod 7, a stop block 8, a first spring 9, a locking rod 10, a positioning wedge 101, a second spring 102, and a sealing assembly. The base plate 1 serves as the carrier and the foundation of the entire device, providing a support platform. The base plate 1 is the base for installing or hinged the various components. The door frame 2 is hinged to the front side of the base plate 1, serving as the entrance passage to guide the rat into the device. A limiting groove is opened inside the door frame 2, and the right-angle door panel 21 is slidably placed within the limiting groove. The right-angle portion of the right-angle door panel 21 slides in contact with the top surface of the base plate 1. The limiting groove ensures that the right-angle door panel 21... It can move accurately along a predetermined path. A sealing plate 3 is hinged to the rear side of the base plate 1. A rod is provided on the upper part of the sealing plate 3. A side plate 4 is hinged to the right side of the base plate 1, and a side plate 5 is hinged to the left side of the base plate 1. Both side plates 4 and 5 have several ventilation holes to ensure air circulation inside the device. In the folded state, side plates 4 and 5 can rotate downwards and stack on or under the base plate 1, significantly reducing the overall size. A limit ring 51 is provided through the upper part of side plate 5. A top plate 6 is hooked inside the limit ring 51 of side plate 5. The U-shaped part of the limit ring 51 and the top plate 6 are both made of elastic material. The rod of the sealing plate 3 is inserted into the top plate 6 to secure it. The top plate 6 and the closing plate 3 are fixed. The hook part between the top plate 6 and the limiting ring 51 is U-shaped, and the top plate 6 is restricted by the limiting ring 51 and makes downward contact, which helps the device to form a compact structure when not in operation. The top surface of the bottom plate 1 is symmetrically provided with guide rods 7. Each guide rod 7 has a block 8 that slides through the bottom plate 1. The guide rods 7 provide a guide path for the block 8, so that the block 8 can slide along the guide rods 7. The door frame 2 and the closing plate 3 have positioning grooves that fit the outer contour of the block 8. Each block 8 and the corresponding guide rod 7 are provided with a spring 9. The spring 9 provides a restoring force so that the block 8 can automatically spring back to its original position after release, ensuring that the side plate 1 4 and the side plate 2 5 are in the unfolded state. To ensure stability in this state, the abutment blocks 8 distributed on both sides of the base plate 1 abut against the corresponding side plates 4 and 5. The top plate 6 and the side plate 4 are symmetrically provided with retaining rings. A locking rod 10 is slidably inserted between the retaining rings. The lower part of the locking rod 10 is slidably provided with a positioning inclined block 101 that abuts against the bottom surface of the retaining ring of the side plate 4. A spring 102 is provided between the positioning inclined block 101 and the locking rod 10. The pressure of the spring 102 abuts against the bottom of the locking rod 10, ensuring the stable locking of the locking rod 10. Pressing the positioning inclined block 101 can compress the spring 9, unlocking the locking rod 10, which is convenient for folding the device. The top of the base plate 1 is provided with a blocking group for capturing mice.

[0025] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the blocking assembly includes a contact plate 11, a mounting base 12, a bending bracket 13, and a spring 14. The contact plate 11, tilted forward, is engaged with the center of the top surface of the base plate 1. The mounting base 12 is engaged with the rear of the top surface of the base plate 1. The bending bracket 13 is slidably mounted on the top of the mounting base 12, providing sliding support for the bending bracket 13. The upper part of the bending bracket 13 is vertical and close to the top plate 6. The plate-like portion of the contact plate 11 is hinged, allowing the contact plate 11 to rotate and contact the bending bracket 13 behind it. When a mouse steps on the contact plate 11, it rotates, triggering the bending bracket 13 to move, which in turn causes the right-angle door panel 21 to lower. The entrance is closed by sliding. A spring 14 is provided between the bending frame 13 and the card holder 12. The presence of the spring 14 provides the bending frame 13 with the necessary restoring force, ensuring that it can respond quickly to the action of the contact plate 11 and improve the capture efficiency. The right-angle door panel 21 should initially slide up to the end point, and its right-angle part will contact the top plate 6, while the upper part of the bending frame 13 rests below the right-angle part. When the contact plate 11 is rotated by force, the bending frame 13 slides backward on the card holder 12 and squeezes the spring 14, pushing the right-angle door panel 21 to lose its obstruction, so that it slides down to close the entrance under the action of gravity, completing the capture action.

[0026] To reduce storage space during transportation or carrying, the entire device can be unfolded. First, rotate the sealing plate 3 outward to pull the insert rod out of the top plate 6. Press the positioning wedge 101 to compress the spring 9, so that the positioning wedge 101 no longer abuts against the retaining ring of the side plate 4. At the same time, pull the locking rod 10 upward to disengage it from the retaining ring between the top plate 6 and the side plate 4. The top plate 6 and the side plate 4 are now in a movable state. Rotate the top plate 6 upward from its U-shaped part and the limiting ring 51 to a vertical position for easy subsequent operation. After the top plate 6 is upright, push the top plate 6 downward to make it slide down against the side plate 5, forming a stacked structure to reduce the overall height. At this time, the side plate 4 can also be rotated downward to unfold, further reducing the size of the device. To reduce the size of the device, the contact plate 11 and the card holder 12 can be removed from the base plate 1. The right-angle door panel 21 can be pulled out from the door frame 2 and removed. Press the blocks 8 in all directions to compress the spring 102. At the same time, rotate the door frame 2 and the closing plate 3 towards the center of the base plate 1 so that they are laid flat on the top surface of the base plate 1. When the closing plate 3 is completely flat, the insert rod on the closing plate 3 should be inserted into the corresponding slot inside the base plate 1 to fix it. Release the blocks 8, and the spring 102 will extend and reset, passing through the positioning slots of the door frame 2 and the closing plate 3 for further fixation. In addition, if it is necessary to further reduce the size of the device, the side plate 4 or the side plate 5 can be rotated downwards again so that any of the plates is laid flat on the bottom surface of the base plate 1. The above completes the reduction of the device size and makes it easy to carry.

[0027] When using this device to catch mice, install the contact plate 11 and the card holder 12 back to their original positions, insert the right-angle door panel 21 into the door frame 2, and slide it up to the end point, with its right-angled part contacting the top plate 6. Ensure that the upper part of the bending frame 13 rests against the bottom of the right-angle door panel 21. As part of the triggering mechanism, rotate the closing plate 3 back to its original position, so that the insert on the closing plate 3 is reinserted into the top plate 6, fixing the top plate 6 and the closing plate 3. Place some food that is attractive to mice as bait at an appropriate position on the top surface of the bottom plate 1. In order to obtain the bait, the mice will... The bait will enter the device from the door frame 2 and move along the base plate 1 until it touches the contact plate 11. Once the mouse steps on the contact plate 11, the contact plate 11 will rotate due to its weight. The contact plate 11 will be pushed by the rotational force to slide backward on the card seat 12 and squeeze the spring 3 14, so that the right-angle door plate 21 will lose its obstruction. Under the action of gravity, it will slide down the limiting groove of the door frame 2 and close with the base plate 1, completely sealing the device and blocking the mouse's escape path, thus successfully capturing the mouse.

[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
