Description

Catcher of animals and birds.

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a grabber of animals and birds.

Background of the invention

At present it is common to use various devices for capturing live animals and birds when You want control of your population. In cities it is common that there is an excess of pigeons and other birds, resulting in these birds annoying and possibly harmful to health, with which to control its population has become a priority for many city halls

This control is done in various ways, but one of the most indicated is the live capture to be able to move to other areas where it is necessary to repopulate or less annoying

This capture can be carried out by means of nets that are thrown on animals or birds to avoid their escape and that are subsequently collected by hand. It is also common use of small and medium cages that are open inferiorly and that is placed with one side resting on a rod or pole in a corner to allow the entry of animals or birds, attracted for some food, subsequently capturing the animal by cane removal by means of a rope or other remote element which causes the cage to fall. These cages are used preferably the individual capture of animals or birds, but not They are applicable in bulk captures.

Therefore, these systems can be slow by not have a great capacity, require a lot of staff to be manual execution and scare animals and birds at the time of the capture, which is difficult to handle later.

Description of the invention

The animal and bird grabber of the The present invention has technical peculiarities that they make it suitable for capturing a large number of various animals and especially urban birds such as pigeons, in a way automated and without scaring them.

Indeed, the grabber comprises a cage of fence with side walls and roof closed, being open by the bottom or base and presenting a side door for the Operator access after capture.

This cage has on its bottom some extensible supports that allow it to be arranged at a height enough for the animals to capture access inside and defining, therefore, entry openings lower than inside the cage In these openings there are some means passing in the only direction in the animals, but these means of passage prevent its exit to the outside.

For which birds or animals are attracted to inside the cage, it comprises a device inside automatic food dispenser This dispenser can be regulated by a time control or by a remote control. The cage is also expected to have presence detectors and / or movement so that the dispenser activates when it detects the presence of birds or animals inside, increasing the attraction of more prey.

It is planned that with the device they can capture fleeting birds and distrustful character. To do this, the means of passage are related to means of movement that remove them, raising them, from the entrance openings to the cage. In this way you can allow the exit and the entrance to the birds and animals to be trusted and used to go to the Food days before capture.

It is also planned that the supports of the cage are related to means of displacement, such as pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders that allow its smooth descent when there are a certain amount of animals that They can be captured. These means of travel can be remotely operated by a remote control, so that the birds or animals do not panic or be surprised in a harmful way, thus facilitating its capture.

The drive of the displacement means, of the means of passage or of the supports can be carried out also with a time control or time programmer, allowing a fully automatic operation of the grabber. This, together with the considerable size that the cage can present allows the capture of animals easy and comfortable, done in a simple way regarding the volume of catches possible. It also has the advantage that animals do not look surprised or scared at the time of capture, with what they are more easily manipulated and can be removed from the cage with more simplicity

The cage can be transportable by means of wheels arranged in the brackets or the like.

Description of the figures

To complement the description that is being performing and in order to facilitate the understanding of characteristics of the invention, is attached herein descriptive a set of drawings in which, for illustrative purposes and not limiting, the following has been represented:

- Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the grabber with the raised cage and the arranged means of passage over the lower openings to allow passage inwards, but prevent the animals or birds from leaving.

- Figure 2 shows a detailed view of the configuration of the means of passage with the rocking rods and vertically movable and the lifting means of said means of passage.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

As can be seen in the figures referenced the grabber comprises a cage (1) with walls closed sides and roof, the bottom or floor being open and presenting a side door (11) of access of a operator. This cage comprises in its upper part a dispenser of food (12) automatic to pour food inside. The cage (1) has in the corners some supports (2) of elevation, these supports (2) being related to means of displacement or elevation, such as cylinders tires (21) or hydraulic. Between the supports (2) and below of the cage (1) there are openings in which they are located means of passage (3) inwards, but blocking the exit of animals or birds outwards. These means of passage (3) are related to means of travel, such as pneumatic (31) or hydraulic lifting cylinders of the same, being able to leave the openings between the supports (2) free of obstacles.

These means of passage (3) are constituted by a longitudinal guide frame (32) having an inner channel in which are a plurality of lower grooves (33) in those that are housed a plurality of rods (34) arranged hanging from its widened upper end and tilting towards the  inside or vertically movable through the opening upper channel.

The food dispenser (12), The means of displacement of the supports (2) and the passage means (3) are related to a remote control for its operation by an operator, or with a time control or programmer for your automatic operation It is also planned that there are some presence and / or movement detectors (13) for activation of the food dispenser when a bird or animal enters capture.

In an alternative embodiment, the supports (2) may respectively comprise transport wheels (not represented) of the grabber.

Once the nature of The invention, as well as a preferred embodiment, is for the appropriate purposes that the materials, form, size and arrangement of the elements described may be modified, as long as this does not imply an alteration of the essential features of the invention claimed in continuation.
