La invención enunciada se encuadra en el sector de los dispositivos o aparatos destinados a la captura de animales los cuales su presencia representa alteración o riesgo de salubridad para las personas.The enunciated invention is framed in the sector of the devices or apparatuses destined to the capture of animals which their presence represents alteration or risk of health for the people.

Concretando más el sector, la invención enunciada se encuadra en el campo de los dispositivos o aparatos cuya forma de captura se realiza mediante una trampa, siendo sus destinatarios por lo general pequeños roedores.Specifying more the sector, the enunciated invention is framed in the field of the devices or devices whose capture form is realized by means of a trap, being generally its recipients small rodents.

ESTADO DE LA TÉCNICASTATE OF THE TECHNIQUE

Como referencia al estado actual de la técnica, cabe señalar que por parte del inventor se conocen varios tipos de dispositivos o aparatos destinados al fin mencionado en el apartado anterior, y los cuales se podrían catalogar en tres modalidades;As a reference to the current state of the art, it should be noted that several types of devices or devices intended for the purpose mentioned in the previous section are known by the inventor, and which could be cataloged in three modalities;

- los lesivos o mortales por aplastamiento: éstos suelen estar fabricados de metal y la captura se realiza mediante aplastamiento del cuerpo o una parte del mismo.- the crushing or fatal ones: these are usually made of metal and the capture is done by crushing the body or a part thereof.

- los mortales por envenenamiento: éstos suelen tener como elemento principal de captura una sustancia mortal impregnada en algún material u objeto atrayente para el animal.- the mortals by poisoning: these usually have as main element of capture a mortal substance impregnated in some material or attractive object for the animal.

- los encerraderos: éstos están formados por habitáculos y por lo general no causan la muerte. Este tipo de dispositivos están destinados a la captura de animales de un tamaño mayor que los roedores y cuya presencia se suele dar en el campo.- the enclosures: these are formed by habitats and usually do not cause death. These types of devices are intended to capture animals larger than rodents and whose presence is usually found in the field.

Al menos, por parte del solicitante se desconoce la existencia de algún dispositivo o aparato similar al de la invención enunciada el cual presente unas características técnicas y constitutivas semejantes a las que presenta el que aquí se preconiza según se reivindica más adelante, y cuyos destinatarios además sean pequeños roedores.At least, the existence of some device or device similar to that of the stated invention is unknown by the applicant, which has similar technical and constitutive characteristics to those presented by the which is recommended here as claimed below, and whose recipients are also small rodents.

OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION

Tal y como se expuesto en el estado de la técnica anterior, la mayoría de los dispositivos o aparatos destinados a la captura de pequeños roedores producen lesiones o incluso la muerte a la mayoría de ellos.As set forth in the prior art, most devices or devices intended to capture small rodents cause injuries or even death to most of them.

Otro aspecto importante de éstos, es la de representar un peligro para las personas usuarias de los mismos, puesto que en algunas ocasiones producen accidentes o sobresaltos a la hora de manipular dichas trampas.Another important aspect of these, is to represent a danger to the users of them, since sometimes they cause accidents or shocks when handling such traps.

También conviene resaltar la sensibilidad que dichas trampas disponen, ya que el más mínimo golpe, incluso al depositarlas en los lugares, provoca su accionamiento.It is also worth highlighting the sensitivity that these traps have, since the slightest blow, even when deposited in places, causes their activation.

El paso del tiempo sin actuar es otro de los inconvenientes que presentan, puesto que al estar realizadas gran parte ellas en metal éste se termina deteriorando, lo cual conlleva a un mal funcionamiento de los mismos.The passage of time without acting is another of the disadvantages that they present, since when they are made a large part of them, it ends up deteriorating, which leads to their malfunction.

Por similitud a la invención enunciada, en lo que concierne a los encerraderos tal y como se ha expuesto éstos están destinados a animales de mayor envergadura, presentando además el inconveniente de poseer sistemas de obstaculización en la salida del animal poco eficientes.Due to the similarity of the invention set forth, as far as the enclosures are concerned, as they have been described, they are intended for larger animals, also presenting the inconvenience of having poorly efficient systems for impeding the exit of the animal.

DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓNDESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Así, el dispositivo para capturar sin lesión pequeños animales que la invención propone se configura como una destacable novedad dentro de su campo de aplicación, estando los detalles caracterizadores que lo hacen posible y que lo distinguen de lo hoy ya conocido convenientemente recogidos en las indicaciones que acompañan a la presente descripción. Thus, the device for capturing small animals without injury that the invention proposes is configured as a remarkable novelty within its field of application, being the characterizing details that make it possible and that distinguish it from what is now known conveniently collected in the indications that accompany this description.

De manera concreta lo que la invención propone como se ha comentado anteriormente es un encerradero para capturar animales de pequeño tamaño siendo éstos ratas o ratones, o animales de similar tamaño los cuales puedan suponer un riesgo material o personal.Specifically, what the invention proposes as mentioned above is an enclosure to capture small animals, these being rats or mice, or animals of similar size which may pose a material or personal risk.

Dicho encerradero se presenta como un habitáculo con forma de caja rectangular formado por dos paredes laterales ciegas, una parte superior y otra inferior también ciegas, y una pared trasera realizada de malla o rejilla al objeto de poder llamar la atención del animal mediante el cebo colocado en su interior y que a su vez disponga de ventilación. Dispone también de una puerta delantera abatible la cual se presenta levantada cuando el dispositivo se encuentra armado, y bajada cuando el animal se encuentra en su interior.Said enclosure is presented as a rectangular box-shaped cabin formed by two blind side walls, a top and a lower part also blind, and a rear wall made of mesh or grid in order to draw the attention of the animal through the bait placed inside and in turn have ventilation. It also has a folding front door which is raised when the device is armed, and lowered when the animal is inside.

El funcionamiento de la misma se produce por el accionamiento de un sistema mecánico presente tanto en el interior como en el exterior del habitáculo el cual consistente en una rampa doble interna la cual se encuentra suspendida sobre un eje central fijado a las paredes laterales, a modo de balancín, y que al ser pisada por el animal en su parte delantera permite mediante dicho eje accionar un primer anclaje de retención externo el cual retiene una palanca, también externa, que a su vez engancha con un segundo anclaje dispuesto en la puerta delantera. De esta forma, y cuando la puerta se encuentra levantada, el animal entra en el habitáculo atraído por el cebo depositado (por ejemplo cereal) en la parte trasera, pisa en la primera cara de la rampa y ésta suelta el anclaje que sujeta la puerta, permitiendo que esta caiga por su propio peso.Its operation is produced by the actuation of a mechanical system present both inside and outside the passenger compartment which consists of an internal double ramp which is suspended on a central axis fixed to the side walls, by way of of rocker, and that when it is stepped on by the animal in its front part, it allows by means of said axis to actuate a first external retention anchor which retains a lever, also external, which in turn engages with a second anchor arranged in the front door. In this way, and when the door is lifted, the animal enters the cabin attracted by the bait deposited (for example cereal) in the back, step on the first side of the ramp and it releases the anchor that holds the door , allowing this to fall by its own weight.

Para asegurar el cierre de la puerta cuando esta cae se dispone de forma preferida un medio de anclaje compuesto por un brazo rígido externo terminado en forma de gancho y colocado en la parte inferior de un lateral de la puerta el cual al caer ésta dicho brazo se desliza por el lateral de un tope externo dispuesto en el lateral del dispositivo y engancha posteriormente en la parte posterior del mismo. De esta forma cuando la puerta cae, dicho gancho se desliza por el tope lateral hasta sobrepasar el mismo y quedándose enganchado, imposibilitando así el retroceso de la puerta por las embestidas del animal.In order to ensure the closing of the door when it falls, an anchoring means is preferably provided consisting of an external rigid arm terminated in the form of a hook and placed in the lower part of a side of the door which when said arm falls it slides along the side of an external stopper disposed on the side of the device and then hooks on the back of the device. In this way, when the door falls, said hook slides along the lateral stop until it is exceeded and staying hooked, thus preventing the backing of the door by the onslaught of the animal.

Otra forma de cierre puede ser mediante imanes colocados de forma estratégica por ejemplo en el marco donde golpea la puerta al caer y en la propia puerta confrontados entre sí.Another form of closure can be by means of magnets placed strategically, for example in the frame where the door strikes when it falls and in the door itself confronted with each other.

Un detalle técnico a tener en cuenta y de gran relevancia en el buen funcionamiento de la invención es el de disponer de un sistema de contrapesos presente en la parte trasera de la rampa doble y en el primer anclaje externo al objeto de mantener la rampa doble nivelada horizontalmente cuando no se encuentra pisada por el animal. Para asegurar la horizontalidad de dicha rampa, dicha parte trasera de ésta dispone de un tope de bajada.A technical detail to be taken into account and of great relevance in the proper functioning of the invention is that of having a counterweight system present at the rear of the double ramp and at the first external anchorage in order to keep the double ramp level horizontally when it is not trodden by the animal. To ensure the horizontality of said ramp, said rear part of it has a lowering stop.

Otro detalle técnico a tener en cuenta es la disposición de un tope en la propia palanca con el fin de impedir que ésta caiga en exceso hacia abajo y no enganche con el anclaje de la puerta.Another technical detail to take into account is the provision of a stop on the lever itself in order to prevent it from falling excessively down and not engaging with the door anchor.

La parte trasera hecha de rejilla o malla tiene también como fin observar el estado de la captura cuando ésta se encuentra dentro. Al objeto de evitar que el cebo se salga al exterior por las rendijas de la rejilla o malla, o que el animal pueda tener acceso al mismo desde el exterior, ésta dispone en su parte inferior de una parte ciega.The rear part made of grid or mesh also aims to observe the status of the capture when it is inside. In order to prevent the bait from going outside through the slits of the grid or mesh, or that the animal can access it from the outside, it has a blind part in its lower part.

Para evitar que el dispositivo se pueda deteriorar por humedades provenientes del suelo, y a su vez que insectos tales como las hormigas puedan acceder con facilidad al cebo colocado en el interior, el dispositivo dispone en su parte inferior de una serie patas de apoyo.To prevent the device from deteriorating due to moisture coming from the ground, and in turn that insects such as ants can easily access the bait placed inside, the device has a series of support legs at its bottom.

Con el fin de poder transportar de una forma cómoda el dispositivo, éste dispone de un asidero. In order to be able to comfortably transport the device, it has a handle.
