The cage 1 serves as the basic frame of the entire device and has an internal partition, dividing it into upper and lower chambers. A capture opening is located at the front of the cage 1. A rotating plate 2 is rotatably positioned behind this capture opening at the front of the cage 1 to guide the mouse into the lower space. Several baffles are symmetrically arranged circumferentially on the rotating plate 2 to restrict the mouse's movement. When a mouse touches a baffle, the rotating plate begins to rotate clockwise, leading the mouse to the upper rear space of the partition and preventing subsequent mice from entering. Both ends of the rotating plate 2 penetrate the cage 1. Several conical rods 8, arranged in a fence-like structure, are rotatably positioned at the upper middle of the cage 1. These conical rods 8 prevent the mouse from escaping upwards. The conical part of each conical rod 8 faces downwards and is close to the upper end of the partition in the cage 1. A connecting shaft is rotatably positioned at the top of each conical rod 8. The connecting shaft 9 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the cage 1 at both ends. The connecting shaft 9 ensures that all the conical rods 8 can move in unison, forming an effective blocking mechanism. Inside the cage 1, a baffle 10 is provided in front of the upper part of each conical rod 8. Each conical rod 8 rotates and abuts against the rear end of the baffle 10. The baffle 10 ensures that the conical rod can only rotate in one direction, enhancing the sealing effect. Elastic ropes 18 are provided on both sides of the rear part of the cage 1. A sealing plate 19 is embedded and rotatably provided in the rear part of the partition of the cage 1. The top two sides of the sealing plate 19 are connected to the front ends of the two elastic ropes 18. When the sealing plate 19 bears the weight of the mouse, it rotates counterclockwise downwards. The elastic ropes 18 will be pulled back to their original position when the sealing plate 19 is reset. A movable door 21 is provided in the lower part of the cage 1 to close the lower chamber. The rear part of the movable door 21 passes through the cage 1. The passing part is bent. The movable door 21 is used to open the lower chamber of the cage 1 to clean or release the captured mouse.

[0026] like Figure 5 As shown, it also includes a breathable support plate 20. The lower inner part of the cage body 1, which is isolated by the partition, is provided with a breathable support plate 20. There is a gap between the breathable support plate 20 and the bottom of the cage body 1. The breathable support plate 20 has several equidistant through holes. The breathable support plate 20 ensures that the trapped rat has enough air circulation, while preventing it from directly contacting the bottom and reducing the risk of injury.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, it also includes a rotating shaft 3, a helical gear 4, a fixed column 5, a ring sleeve 6, a limiting sleeve 7, a rack 13, and a full gear 14. A rotating shaft 3 is provided at each of the through-parts at both ends of the rotating plate 2 to transmit the movement of the rotating plate 2. A helical gear 4 is provided outside each rotating shaft 3. A fixed column 5 is provided at the outward-facing end of the helical gear 4. A ring sleeve 6 is slidably provided on the outside of the cage 1 corresponding to the rear of the helical gear 4. The annular portion of the ring sleeve 6 is confined outside the fixed column 5, and the two are slidably engaged. The end of the ring sleeve 6 extends rearward, and a limiting sleeve 7 is slidably fitted on the outside of this extended portion to prevent excessive sliding of the ring sleeve 6. Limiting sleeves are provided on both sides of the outside of the cage 1. A rack 13 is slidably arranged at the rear of the cage 1. The front end of the rack 13 is connected to the extension of the ring 6. The ring 6 converts the rotation of the helical gear 4 into the linear motion of the rack 13 through the sliding engagement with the fixed column 5. The rack 13 transmits the linear motion of the ring 6 to the full gear 14. Full gears 14 are rotatably arranged on both sides of the cage 1 above the end of the rack 13. The full gears 14 mesh with the rack 13. The helical gear 4, through the action of the fixed column 5, the ring 6 and the limiting sleeve 7, causes the rack 13 to move forward and then mesh with the full gear 14, driving the full gear 14 and the material retention roller 15 to rotate synchronously.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, it also includes a wedge block 11 and a spring 12. The wedge block 11 is slidably arranged on both sides of the outer side of the cage body 1 above the helical gear 4.

The middle part of the material retention roller 15 is wider than its two ends. Several retention grooves are opened circumferentially inside the wider part. The hopper 16 is installed at the upper rear part of the cage body 1. The material retention roller 15 and the hopper 16 are used to release bait at regular intervals and in a quantitative manner to maintain the freshness of the bait and continuously attract new mice to forage. The top of the hopper 16 passes through the top of the cage body 1. An inlet 17 is opened on one side of the top of the hopper 16 to facilitate the addition of bait and ensure that the bait can enter the hopper 16 smoothly. The lower part of the hopper 16 covers the wide part of the material retention roller 15, and the outer contour of the wider part is adapted to the inner wall of the outlet of the lower part of the hopper 16.
