The projecting body 34 </ b> D positions the winding position of the ring portion 24 around the rotation guide body 34, and when the ring portion 24 attempts to reduce the diameter by the urging force of the urging portion 40 applied to the ring portion 24. This is also for maintaining the locked state with the rotation guide body 34 until the rotation position of the rotation guide body 34 reaches the required rotation position. This required rotation position will be described later.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, the main body 30 restricts the diameter reduction operation of the ring portion 24 and the rotation operation of the rotation guide body 34 against the urging force applied by the urging portion 40. And a string 37 which is a stopper release means for detecting that the animal's limb has entered the internal space of the main body 30 and releasing the restriction state by the stopper 36. Further, a guide tongue piece 32 </ b> A is provided for guiding a direction in which the ring portion 24 is detached from the main body portion 30 when the restriction state by the stopper 36 is released. The guide tongue piece 32 </ b> A and the projecting body 34 </ b> D are arranged such that the planar positions in the main body 30 are opposite to each other.

The stopper 36 penetrates the side wall surface in the middle of the side wall surface of the support portion 32, extends upward along the side wall surface of the support portion 32, and then rotates at the upper end surface position of the rotation guide body 34. It is formed in the hook shape bent toward the radial direction outer side. The stopper 36 is attached to the side wall of the support portion 32 in a state in which the tip end portion of the stopper 36 can rotate from the position of the upper end surface of the support portion 32 toward the inner space of the support portion 32. A string 37 is locked at a plurality of locations on the inner wall surface of the support portion 32, and the string 37 is stretched around the internal space of the main body portion 30. A resin pipe 38 as an engaging portion is selectively disposed at a portion where the strings 37 intersect each other. The resin pipe 38 can be disposed at an arbitrary position where the strings 37 are desired to cross each other. Further, the diameter portion of the main body portion 30 (support portion 32) is provided with a wire 37A, one end of which is engaged with the stopper 36 and the other end of which is engaged with the inner wall surface of the support portion 32.

  Since the string 37 and the wire 37A stretched around the internal space of the support part 32 are locked to the stopper 36 at the end part or the middle part, the animal's limbs enter the main body part 30 and enter the string 37 or the wire. When 37A is pushed downward, the stopper 36 rotates and the restriction state (locking state) of the rotation guide body 34 with respect to the support portion 32 is released. As a result, the rotation guide body 34 rises from the upper surface of the support portion 32 to the support portion 32 by the urging force from the urging portion 40 acting on the rotation guide body 34 via the ring portion 24. Rotate. At this time, the rotation guide body 34 is maintained in the locked state with the ring portion 24 as much as possible by the concave portion 34C and the protrusion 34D. Accordingly, the urging force acting on the ring portion 24 is efficiently applied to the rotation guide body 34, and the rotation operation of the rotation guide body 34 is promoted.

The ring portion 24 mounted on the main body portion 30 while being wound around the outer peripheral surfaces of the support portion 32 and the rotation guide body 34 is configured such that the rotation guide body 34 rotates to the position of the animal's limb or the ring portion. Whether the portion wound around the support portion 32 is removed from the tip of the guide tongue 32A by reducing the diameter of the support portion 32 (in this embodiment, the rotation position in any of these states is set as the required rotation position). The ring portion 24, the support portion 32, and the rotation guide body 34 are separated from each other.
The ring portion 24 mounted on the support portion 32 and the rotation guide body 34 has the annular portion 20 side along the guide tongue 32A and the opposite side to the annular portion 20 by the rotation operation of the rotation guide body 34, respectively. Is detached in a state where it is directed to the upper position of the plane center portion of the support portion 32 and the rotation guide body 34 (main body portion 30), and the limbs of the animal can be easily tightened at the body side position.

The urging unit 40 will be described. FIG. 5 is an enlarged view showing the vicinity of the guide tongue piece portion of the main body.

Next, the usage method of the animal capture device 10 demonstrated by this embodiment is demonstrated.
First, the main body portion 30 on which the wire body 20 (ring portion 24) is temporarily attached is set on the path of the animal to be captured. The rotation guide body 34 is kept locked to the support portion 32 by a stopper 36. The main body 30 is covered with fallen leaves or the like to hide the main body 30. If a corrugated cardboard board (not shown) cut out in accordance with the shape of the upper surface opening of the main body 30 is disposed as necessary, malfunction due to the limb of the animal to be captured entering the gap of the string 37, etc. This is advantageous because it can be prevented.

Next, the ring portion 24 mounted on the outer peripheral surface of the support portion 32 and the rotation guide body 34 (main body portion 30) by the urging portion 40 has a direction in which the diameter of the ring portion 24 is reduced and the rotation guide body 34 is the support portion. An urging force is applied to trigger an operation of rotating in a direction of standing from 32. Specifically, the cap member 44B and the cylindrical body 46 are slid to the main body portion 30 side, and the helical spring 42 and the cap member 44A are brought into contact with the ring portion 24 (annular portion 22). Further, the urging force can be obtained by sliding the cap member 44B and the cylindrical body 46 toward the main body 30 and compressing the helical spring 42 between the cap members 44A and 44B. The user fully compresses the helical spring 42, tightens the screw portion 48B, presses the tip of the screw portion 48B against the outer surface of the wire body 20, and holds the wire body 20 together with the insertion body 48A. The compressed state (biased state) of the spring 42 is maintained. Thereby, the ring portion 24 is in a state where an urging force for reducing the diameter of the ring portion 24 and an urging force for rotating the rotation guide body 34 from the position of the opening of the support portion 32 are provided. Maintained.
Finally, the other end portion of the wire body 20 is moored to a tree or the like (not shown) by a mooring tool 26 attached to the other end portion of the wire body 20. If the wire body 20 and the urging portion 40 are also covered and hidden by fallen leaves or the like, the arrangement of the animal capturing device 10 is completed.

Next, the operation of the animal capture device will be described. 7, 8 and 9 are perspective views showing the operating state of the animal capture device.
When the animal to be captured (assumed to be a moth here) passes through the position where the animal capturing device 10 is disposed, when the limb leg 100 (limb) enters the internal space of the main body 30, the limb leg 100 is The string 37 or the wire 37A stretched in the main body 30 is stepped on, and the string 37 or the wire 37A is bent downward. Accordingly, the stopper 36 that has locked the rotation guide body 34 to the support portion 32 is rotated to the inner space side of the main body portion 30, and the locking state between the support portion 32 and the rotation guide body 34 is released. . That is, as shown in FIG. 7, the rotation guide body 34 is moved from the upper surface opening position of the support portion 32 to the support portion 32 by the urging force acting on the ring portion 24 wound around the outer peripheral surface of the rotation guide body 34.
