Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mousetrap technology, specifically a mole rat trap for grassland protection. Background Technology
[0002] Grassland mole rat traps are devices specifically designed to control underground rodent infestations in grasslands. They precisely kill mole rats using a mechanical trigger mechanism. These devices typically employ a spring-driven steel arrow or ground-mounted arrow structure. When a mole rat touches the trigger plate while blocking its burrow entrance, the steel arrow is instantly launched, penetrating the rat's body and killing it. The core principle is based on the mole rat's tendency to avoid wind; artificial ventilation forces the rat to actively approach the trigger mechanism. These traps are characterized by requiring no bait, being reusable, and having a high success rate. Some models also incorporate a sliding sleeve on the upright and an adjustable arrow shaft, minimizing damage to the turf while maintaining trapping efficiency, making them an important tool for maintaining grassland ecological balance.
[0003] In the field of grassland ecological protection, the damage caused by mole rats to grasslands has always been a pressing problem that needs to be solved. Traditional methods of catching mole rats mostly rely on manual operation, which is not only inefficient but also difficult to sustain and scale up. Some manual rat traps require dedicated personnel, consuming a lot of manpower and resources; while some chemical rat traps are effective to a certain extent, they have drawbacks such as polluting the grassland environment, harming other organisms, and potentially leading to drug resistance in mole rats. In addition, some existing automatic rat traps are complex in structure and expensive, making them unsuitable for long-term outdoor use. Therefore, developing a highly efficient, environmentally friendly, and automated mole rat trap suitable for long-term use in grassland outdoor settings has become an urgent need to protect grassland ecosystems and reduce the damage caused by mole rats. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a mole rat trap for grassland protection, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a mole rat trap for grassland protection, comprising a box, a rat trapping mechanism fixedly connected inside the box, and a support mechanism fixedly connected to the bottom of the rat trapping mechanism;
[0006] The mouse-catching mechanism includes a base plate disposed at the bottom of the box. A first spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the box, and a slider is fixedly connected to the top of the first spring. A support cylinder is fixedly connected to the surface of the slider, and a retaining seat is fixedly connected inside the support cylinder. An ear seat is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate, and second springs are fixedly connected to both sides of the ear seat. An I-shaped plate is fixedly connected to one end of the second spring, and a T-shaped rod is fixedly connected to the surface of the I-shaped plate. A retaining rod is fixedly connected to the top of the T-shaped rod.
[0007] Preferably, a vertical groove is formed inside the housing, and the surface of the slider is slidably connected to the inside of the vertical groove, so that the slider can move inside the vertical groove.
[0008] Preferably, the card holder has a card hole inside, and the surface of the card rod matches the inside of the card hole.
[0009] Preferably, a circular hole is provided inside the ear seat, and the surface of the I-shaped plate is rotatably connected to the inside of the circular hole, so as to facilitate the movement of the I-shaped plate within the circular hole.
[0010] Preferably, the support mechanism includes a base, which is disposed at the bottom of the box body. A telescopic support ring is fixedly connected to the top of the base, and the top of the telescopic support ring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the box body. A vertical rod is fixedly connected to the top of the base, and the top of the vertical rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the base plate. A third spring is fixedly connected between the bottom of the box body and the top of the base.
[0011] Preferably, a perforation is provided at the bottom of the box, and the surface of the vertical rod is slidably connected to the inside of the perforation, so as to facilitate the movement of the vertical rod within the perforation.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a mole rat trap for grassland protection, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] 1. This mole rat trap for grassland protection utilizes a designed trapping mechanism. Attracted by bait, rats climb to the base plate. The weight of the rats causes the base plate to compress the vertical rod, triggering a series of interconnected actions, including the downward movement of the trap and the compression of a third spring. Once the base plate causes the ear-shaped supports and other components to lose their support, the support cylinder slides down within the trap, trapping the rats. This automatic trapping eliminates the need for manual monitoring and operation, significantly improving efficiency and making it suitable for outdoor environments requiring long-term rat control.
[0014] 2. This mole rat trap for grassland protection, through its designed support mechanism, avoids the use of chemicals, electric shocks, or other methods that could cruelly harm rodents, and also reduces potential harm to the surrounding environment and other organisms. Furthermore, the entire device operates based on physical principles and mechanical structures, without sharp parts or toxic substances. When used outdoors, it also reduces the risk of accidental injury to humans or other non-target animals, demonstrating excellent safety and environmental friendliness. Attached Figure Description

[0023] This utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0024] Example 1
[0025] Combination Figures 2 to 4 A mole rat trap for grassland protection includes a box 1, a rat trapping mechanism 2 fixedly connected inside the box 1, and a support mechanism 3 fixedly connected to the bottom of the rat trapping mechanism 2.
[0026] The mouse-catching mechanism 2 includes a base plate 21, which is located at the bottom of the box body 1. A first spring 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the box body 1. A slider 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the first spring 22. A support cylinder 24 is fixedly connected to the surface of the slider 23. A card seat 29 is fixedly connected inside the support cylinder 24. An ear seat 25 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 21. A second spring 251 is fixedly connected to both sides of the ear seat 25. An I-shaped plate 26 is fixedly connected to one end of the second spring 251. A T-shaped rod 27 is fixedly connected to the surface of the I-shaped plate 26. A card rod 28 is fixedly connected to the top of the T-shaped rod 27. A vertical groove is opened inside the box body 1. The surface of the slider 23 is slidably connected to the inside of the vertical groove. A card hole is opened inside the card seat 29. The surface of the card rod 28 matches the inside of the card hole.
[0027] Furthermore, a round hole is opened inside the ear seat 25, and the surface of the I-shaped plate 26 is rotatably connected to the inside of the round hole, so that the card seat 29 and the support cylinder 24 can move downward under the limit of the slider 23 inside the box 1 when they lose support, so that the support cylinder 24 can cover the rodent and thus achieve the corresponding rodent catching operation.
[0028] Example 2
[0029] See Figure 1-4 Furthermore, based on Embodiment 1, the support mechanism 3 further includes a base 31, which is located at the bottom of the box 1. A telescopic support ring 32 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 31, and the top of the telescopic support ring 32 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the box 1. A vertical rod 34 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 31, and the top of the vertical rod 34 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the base plate 21. A third spring 33 is fixedly connected between the bottom of the box 1 and the top of the base 31.
[0030] Furthermore, a perforation is made at the bottom of the housing 1, and the surface of the vertical rod 34 is slidably connected to the perforation. The third spring 33 is compressed accordingly, and during this process, the bottom plate 21 drives the ear seat 25 to move downward and drives the T-shaped rod 27 and the locking rod 28 to disengage downward from the locking position inside the locking seat 29.
[0031] In actual operation, when this device is used, the bottom of the vertical rod 34 is a telescopic rod. When catching mice, the device is placed outdoors, and bait is placed on the base plate 21. Mice climb onto the surface of the base plate 21, and more and more mice climb up. Under the action of gravity, the base plate 21 causes the vertical rod 34 to compress, which in turn causes the box 1 to move downward. This causes the third spring 33 to be compressed accordingly. During this process, the base plate 21 causes the ear seat 25 to move downward and causes the T-shaped rod 27 and the locking rod 28 to disengage from the locking position inside the locking seat 29. Under the elastic action of the second spring 251, the T-shaped rod 27 rotates, and the locking seat 29 and the support cylinder 24 move downward under the limitation of the slider 23 inside the box 1 when they lose support. This allows the support cylinder 24 to cover the mice, thus achieving the corresponding mouse-catching operation.
[0032] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.
