Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of trapping cage technology, specifically a snake trapping cage. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, existing snake traps have a relatively simple structure, usually with simple entrances on both sides of the cage for snakes to crawl in on their own.

[0003] This traditional trap has many drawbacks. For example, the entrance design is unreasonable, allowing snakes to easily escape after entering, and they may even get stuck at the entrance, resulting in injury or death. It also renders the cage unusable, affecting subsequent trapping. The internal space of the cage is not properly divided, lacking a drinking area, which may cause trapped snakes to become sick or even die. There is no separate entrance for changing bait, which means that the cage must be opened every time the bait is changed, increasing the difficulty of operation and reducing the lifespan of the cage. Furthermore, there is no separate snake retrieval opening, making operation difficult and prone to causing injury to the operator.

[0004] Therefore, we urgently need to provide a snake trapping cage. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a snake trapping cage to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as snakes easily escaping, unreasonable internal structure, easy damage to snakes, and difficulty in retrieving snakes.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a snake trapping cage, comprising a cage body, wherein conical entrances are provided at the left and right ends of the cage body, and multiple elastic baffles are installed at the conical entrances. The elastic baffles are arranged in a ring, with one end of each elastic baffle fixed to the edge of the conical entrance and the other end inclined toward the center of the cage body. A bait placement area is installed on the front of the inside of the cage body, and a side cover is hinged to the front of the bait placement area. A drinking box is installed on the opposite side of the bait placement area inside the cage body, and a top cover is hinged to the top of the cage body.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the cage is equipped with an anti-slip pad, and ground spikes are fixedly installed around the bottom of the cage. The anti-slip pad increases the friction between the cage and the ground, and the ground spikes are inserted into the ground to prevent the cage from sliding on the ground.

[0008] Preferably, the cage and bait placement area are mesh structures made of corrosion-resistant metal mesh to ensure the service life of the cage and to ensure the release of bait odor.

[0009] Preferably, a fixing mechanism is provided between the cage and the top cover. The fixing mechanism includes a connecting block, a housing, a spring, a locking rod, and a pull rod. The connecting block is fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the front of the top cover, the housing is fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the front of the cage, one end of the spring is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the housing, the locking rod is fixedly installed on the other end of the spring, and the pull rod is fixedly installed on one side of the locking rod and extends to the outside of the housing.

[0010] Preferably, the connecting block has a locking hole inside, and the diameter of the locking hole is equal to the diameter of the locking rod. The top cover can be opened and closed by locking the locking rod with the locking hole in the connecting block. When the captured snake needs to be removed, the operator can pull the lever to drive the locking rod out of the locking hole in the connecting block, thereby opening the top cover and removing the snake, reducing the difficulty of operation and reducing the risk.

[0011] Preferably, a locking mechanism is provided between the cage body and the side cover. The locking mechanism includes a rotating shaft, a baffle, and a knob. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the front of the cage body, the baffle is fixedly installed on the front of the rotating shaft, and the knob is fixedly installed on the front of the baffle.

[0012] Preferably, the side cover has a slot on its surface, and the width of the slot is greater than the width of the baffle. The rotating shaft is interference-fitted with the cage body. By rotating the knob, the baffle is rotated to a vertical position. Then, the side cover is rotated upwards, and the knob passes through the slot in the side cover. Rotating the knob again rotates the baffle to a horizontal position, limiting the side cover and fixing it to the front of the cage body. Conversely, the side cover can be opened to replace the bait.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. This snake trap effectively prevents snakes from escaping after entering by utilizing the properties of elastic baffles, thus improving capture efficiency. The inclusion of a drinking box inside further enhances the survival rate of the trapped snakes.

[0015] 2. This snake trap has an internal bait placement area and a locking mechanism that allows the side cover to be opened, effectively improving the utilization of space inside the trap and facilitating the replacement of bait.

[0016] 3. When the snake needs to be removed from the snake, the operator can pull the lever to disengage the locking rod from the locking hole in the connecting block, thereby opening the top cover and taking out the snake, reducing the difficulty of operation, reducing risks, and making it easier to remove the snake.

[0022] 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.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] Given the current limitations of existing technologies, such as snakes being prone to escape, having an unreasonable internal structure, causing injury to snakes, and being difficult to retrieve them, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figures 1-4 This embodiment provides a snake trap that effectively prevents snakes from escaping after entering, improving capture efficiency. The snake trap includes a cage body 1, with an anti-slip pad installed at the bottom and ground spikes 10 fixedly installed around the bottom of the cage body 1. The anti-slip pad increases the friction between the cage body 1 and the ground spikes 10, preventing the cage body 1 from sliding on the ground. Conical entrances 2 are provided at both ends of the cage body 1. Multiple elastic baffles 3 are installed at the conical entrances 2, arranged in a ring. One end of each elastic baffle 3 is fixed to the edge of the conical entrance 2, and the other end extends into the cage body 1. The cage is tilted in the center, and the elastic baffle 3 is made of a rigid material with elasticity such as rubber or silicone. The bait placement area 4 is installed on the front of the inside of the cage 1. The cage 1 and the bait placement area 4 are mesh structures made of corrosion-resistant metal mesh to ensure the service life of the cage 1 and to ensure the release of the bait scent. The bait placement area 4 is hinged with a side cover 5 on the front. A water box 6 is installed on the opposite side of the bait placement area 4 inside the cage 1 to ensure that the captured snakes have a water source to drink. The top of the cage 1 is hinged with a top cover 7.

[0025] Example 2:

[0026] Based on Example 1, please refer to Figures 1-4To facilitate the operator's opening of the top cover 7 to retrieve the snake, this device also includes a fixing mechanism. A fixing mechanism is installed between the cage body 1 and the top cover 7. This fixing mechanism includes a connecting block 801, a housing 802, a spring 803, a locking rod 804, and a pull rod 805. The connecting block 801 is fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the front of the top cover 7, the housing 802 is fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the front of the cage body 1, one end of the spring 803 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the housing 802, and the locking rod 804 is fixedly installed on the other end of the spring 803. The connecting block 801 has a locking hole inside, and the diameter of the locking hole is equal to the diameter of the locking rod 804. The top cover 7 can be opened and closed by locking the locking rod 804 with the locking hole of the connecting block 801. When the captured snake needs to be removed, the operator can pull the lever 805 to drive the locking rod 804 out of the locking hole of the connecting block 801, thereby opening the top cover 7 and removing the snake, reducing the difficulty of operation and reducing the risk. The lever 805 is fixedly installed on one side of the locking rod 804 and extends to the outside of the housing 802.

[0027] To facilitate bait replacement, this device is also equipped with a locking mechanism. A locking mechanism is provided between the cage body 1 and the side cover 5. The locking mechanism includes a rotating shaft 901, a baffle 902, and a knob 903. The rotating shaft 901 is rotatably connected to the front of the cage body 1. The side cover 5 has a slot on its surface, and the width of the slot is greater than the width of the baffle 902. The rotating shaft 901 and the cage body 1 are interference fit. By rotating the knob 903, the baffle 902 is rotated to a vertical position. Then, the side cover 5 is rotated upwards, and at the same time, the knob 903 passes through the slot in the side cover 5. Rotating the knob 903 again causes the baffle 902 to rotate to a horizontal position, limiting the side cover 5 and fixing it to the front of the cage body 1. Conversely, the side cover 5 can be opened to replace the bait. The baffle 902 is fixedly installed on the front of the rotating shaft 901, and the knob 903 is fixedly installed on the front of the baffle 902.

[0028] When in use, place the cage 1 in a suitable position. When the snake enters through the conical entrance 2, it squeezes the elastic baffle 3, causing the elastic baffle 3 to bend downwards, allowing the snake to enter the cage 1. Once the snake is fully inside the cage 1, the elastic baffle 3 returns to its original position, sealing the entrance and preventing the snake from escaping. Combined with the water box 6 containing water, this ensures that the captured snakes have access to water, increasing their survival rate. When it is necessary to remove the captured snake, the operator can pull the lever 805 to disengage the locking lever 804 from the locking hole in the connecting block 801, thereby opening the top cover 7 and removing the snake, reducing the difficulty of operation and minimizing risks. When it is necessary to change the bait, turn the knob 903 to bring the baffle 902 to a vertical position, at which point the side cover 5 can be opened, and then the bait in the bait placement area 4 can be replaced.
