Animal shackle attachment device

In recent years, measures against wildlife damage have become an urgent issue in farming and mountain areas. However, hunting is prohibited for unlicensed people under the Wildlife Protection and Management Act, and the available measures are limited. The available measures also have problems such as effectiveness and cost, making them difficult to fully adopt. There is an urgent need for effective, safe, and economical measures against wildlife damage that can be implemented by ordinary people without being subject to the above regulations. [Solution] Traps, including snare traps, are subject to the above-mentioned law because they are used to capture harmful animals. The present invention proposes a solution to this problem by attaching a shackle, such as a sound device, to the harmful animal without capturing it, and then allowing it to escape. The present invention uses the force of the harmful animal trying to escape to release the connecting means immediately after the shackle is attached, and by using a trigger means with increased sensitivity, the device can be used not only for relatively large harmful animals such as wild boars, but also for small harmful animals such as masked palm civets.

String tensioner for stringed instrument

A string tensioner for a musical instrument is configured to support an elongated spring beam at a first end so that the spring beam extends proximally from the first end. A second end of the spring beam can be configured to attach to a musical string that is drawn distally from the second end of the spring beam over a saddle and nut. Tension applied to the musical string bends the spring beam, and thus maintains tension in the musical string. A lever arm distance is defined between the first end of the spring beam and the string. As the musical string changes length over an operating range, the degree of bending of the spring beam changes and the lever arm distance also changes so that the tension in the musical string remains substantially the same.
