Description

The present invention relates to a trap cage. More specifically, it is a capture cage that captures vermin such as wild boar and deer, and relates to a capture cage that can prevent the captured vermin from rampaging in the capture cage and increase the capture rate.

In recent years, the number of vermin has been increasing year by year due to overdevelopment, changes in the natural environment due to abnormal weather, and changes in the habitat of vermin due to the increase in abandoned cultivated land. In addition, damage to agriculture and forestry caused by these vermin is becoming more common throughout the country, and the damage is steadily expanding and becoming a social problem. For this reason, it is necessary to actively promote the capture and extermination of these vermin.

Conventionally, the method using a hunting gun or the method using a catching cage has been used for the capture and extermination of vermin, but the method using a hunting gun has been tightened in possession restrictions, and the number of persons with the license has decreased significantly. Therefore, in recent years, the capture and extermination of vermin using a capture cage has become the mainstream.

As such a capture cage, for example, in Patent Document 1, at the moment when a vermin that has entered the capture cage pokes food provided in the capture cage, the obstruction plate slides down due to its own weight to block the doorway. The captive cages that can be used are disclosed.

It is provided so that it can be slid vertically. The capture cage 801 is provided with a stopper portion 804 that locks the door portion 803 in a state of being positioned above, and when a vermin that has entered the capture cage 801 moves the food stand 805 provided in the capture cage 801. The locked state of the door portion 803 by the stopper portion 804 is released, and the door portion 803 automatically slides downward to close the front opening 802.

On the other hand, in the capture cage 801 disclosed in Patent Document 1, many of the back portions facing the front opening 802 are formed by assembling steel materials in a mesh or grid pattern, and the grid or the like is visible to the vermin. Upon entering, the vermin had the problem of being cautious and not easily entering the capture cage 801.

In response to such a problem, Patent Document 2 discloses a capture cage in which openings are formed on each of the front portion side and the back surface portion side facing the front portion side of the capture cage.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7, a first door portion 904 and a second door portion 905 capable of closing each of the front opening 902 and the back opening 903 are provided so as to be slidable in the vertical direction. Has been done. The capture cage 901 configured in this way is set on farmland or the like by locking the first door portion 904 and the second door portion 905 in an open state. The vermin approaching the capture cage 901 can see from the front opening 902 to the back opening 902, and can see the scenery on the other side of the capture cage 901. Therefore, it is possible to call the capture cage 901 without being cautious, feeling that it is possible to pass through the capture cage 901.

That is, when the vermin B that has entered the capture cage 1 comes into contact with the food attachment portion 7, the engagement state between the second stopper portion 43 and the stopper release portion 6 is released, and the inside of the capture cage 1 is first. The partition plate portion 41 rotates to the partition position that partitions the space portion C1 and the second space portion C2.

The stopper rod 443 is placed between the partition plate portion 41, the second right upper end frame 315a, and the second left upper end frame 315b in a state where the partition plate portion 41 is supported by the second stopper portion 43. It is sandwiched. From this state, when the partition plate portion 41 is allowed to rotate with the release of the second stopper portion 43, the stopper rod 443 pushes the right side guide rail 441 and the left side guide rail 442 from the upper end to the lower end. Sliding.

Here, the right side guide rail 441 and the left side guide rail 442 do not necessarily have to be formed in a tapered shape from the upper end to the lower end. For example, it may have a straight shape having the same width from the upper end to the lower end. However, since the stopper rod 443 is formed in a tapered shape from the upper end to the lower end, when the stopper rod 443 falls from the upper end to the lower end, it slips at an intermediate position between the right side guide rail 441 and the left side guide rail 442. At this time, for example, even if the vermin B trapped in the first space portion C1 tries to rotate the partition plate portion 41 toward the second space portion C2, the rotation is restricted by the stopper rod 443. Therefore, the state in which the vermin B is confined in the first space portion C1 can be maintained. Further, when the vermin B is confined in the second space portion C2, the action of the vermin B to rotate the partition plate portion 41 is restricted by being blocked by the stopper rod 443, which is harmful. The state in which the beast B is confined in the second space portion C2 can be maintained.

In order to restrict further rotation of the second right lower end frame 315c and the second left lower end frame 315d in a state where the partition plate portion 41 rotates and is substantially perpendicular to the installation surface. The contact piece 45 is provided. When the partition plate structure 4 is installed in the first capture cage 2, the contact piece 45 is provided in the first capture cage 2.

Here, it is not always necessary to have the contact piece 45. However, since the partition plate portion 41 can be prohibited from rotating further by having the contact piece 45, for example, the vermin B trapped in the second space portion C2 can prevent the partition plate portion 41 from rotating further. First, even if an attempt is made to push the space portion C1 side, the rotation of the contact piece 45 is prohibited. Therefore, the vermin B can be reliably confined in the second space portion C2.

The connecting portion 5 connects the first trapping cage 2 and the second trapping cage 3, and is provided on the first trapping cage 2 side and the first connecting portion 51 and the second trapping cage 3 side. It is composed of a second connecting portion 52 provided in the above and a connecting rod 53.

The first connecting portion 51 has a hollow cylindrical shape in which the first through hole 511 is formed, and is on the side of the second trapping cage 3 at predetermined intervals in the left and right vertical directions of the first back square frame 214. It is fixed so as to protrude to.

Further, the second connecting portion 52 has a hollow cylindrical shape in which the second through hole 521 is formed, and is at a position where it does not interfere with the first connecting portion 51 in the left and right vertical directions of the second front square frame 313. It is present and is fixed so as to protrude toward the first capture cage 2.

When the first back square frame 214 of the first capture cage 2 and the second front square frame 313 of the second capture cage 3 are brought into contact with each other so as to face each other, the first connecting portion 51 and the first connecting portion 51 are brought into contact with each other. Since the second connecting portion 52 is fixed to the first rear square frame body 214 and the second front square frame body 313 at positions where they do not interfere with each other, the first connecting portion 51 and the second connecting portion 52 Will be staggered. In this state, by inserting the connecting rod 53 into the first through hole 511 and the second through hole 521, the first capture cage 2 and the second capture cage 3 are firmly fixed.

Here, the connecting structure of the first catching cage 2 and the second catching cage 3 is necessarily composed of the first connecting portion 51, the second connecting portion 52, and the connecting rod 53 shown above. It is not necessary and can be appropriately selected from known linking structures. For example, a hook-shaped engaging portion can be engaged with the first back square frame 214 of the first capture cage 2, and this engaging portion can be engaged with the second front square frame 313 of the second capture cage 3. It is also possible to connect the first capture cage 2 and the second capture cage 3 by forming the engagement hole.

Next, the operation of the trap cage according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4.

First, as shown in FIG. 3, in a state where the capture cage 1 before capturing the vermin B is installed at the installation location, the first door portion 28 is at a position where the first front opening portion 211 is opened. It is held by the first stopper portion 27. Further, the partition plate portion 41 is held by the second stopper portion 43 at a position substantially parallel to the second ceiling surface portion 32.

In such a state, the vermin B that has entered the capture cage 1 by being attracted to the food A attached to the feed attachment portion 7 provided in the first capture cage 2 (first space portion C1). Contact to eat the food A attached to the food attachment portion 7. Due to this reaction, the engagement state between the stopper releasing portion 6 and the first stopper portion 27 and the second stopper portion 43 is released.

When the engagement state between the stopper release portion 6, the first stopper portion 27, and the second stopper portion 43 is released, as shown in FIG. 4, the first door portion 28 is the first guide rail 26. The first front opening 211 is closed, and the partition plate 41 rotates to a partition position that partitions the first space C1 and the second space C2. At this time, the stopper rod 443 sandwiched between the partition plate portion 41, the second right upper end frame 315a, and the second left upper end frame 315b slides along the right side guide rail 441 and the left side guide rail 442. And it slips in the middle position.

At this time, the vermin B is confined in the first space portion C1 in which the food attachment portion 7 is installed. In the first space portion C1 in which the vermin B is confined, there is not enough space for the vermin B to run, and the partition plate portion 41 is moved from the first space portion C1 side to the second space portion C2 side. Even if the stopper rod 443 is to be rotated, the rotation of the partition plate portion 41 is also restricted because the stopper rod 443 is slipped at an intermediate position between the right side guide rail 441 and the left side guide rail 442. Therefore, the vermin B cannot rampage in the first space C1, the capture cage 1 is destroyed, there is no risk of the vermin B escaping from the capture cage 1, and the worker disposes of the vermin B. It will be easy to do.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. The components common to the first embodiment will be described with reference to the same reference numerals as those of the first embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 5, in the second embodiment as well as in the first embodiment, the capture cage 1 has substantially the same size as the first capture cage 2 and the first capture cage 2. The capture cage 3'of 2 is connected by the connecting portion 5 to form an integral structure.

The second back square frame 314 of the second capture cage 3 in the first embodiment was closed by the second lattice member 316 to form the second back portion 36. On the other hand, in the second capture cage 3'of this second embodiment, the second back opening 312 is not closed and can be opened and closed by the second door 39.

That is, a pair of second portions extending vertically upward along the edge of the second right side surface portion 34 and the second left side surface portion 35 on the open end edge of the second back square frame 314. It has a guide rail 37. Along the second guide rail 37, the second door portion 39 is slidably installed between the open position and the closed position of the second back opening portion 312.

The third stopper portion 38 is made of a string-like body, one end of which is engaged with the second door portion 39, and the other end of which is engaged with the food attachment portion 7. When the capture cage 1 is installed at the installation location, the second door portion 39 has a third stopper portion 38 at a position where the second back opening portion 312 is opened, similarly to the first door portion 28. Is held by.

Further, in the partition plate portion 41 (not shown in FIG. 5), one end is pivotally supported by the partition plate support portion 42 by the second stopper portion 43 as in the first embodiment, and the other end is the second back opening. It is held at a position substantially parallel to the second ceiling surface portion 32 so as to direct the portion 312.

The food attachment portion 7 is provided in the first capture cage 2 (first space portion C1) as in the first embodiment, and one end thereof is engaged with the stopper release portion 6.

Then, when the vermin B enters the capture cage 1 from either the first front opening 211 or the second back opening 312 and comes into contact with the food attachment portion 7, the first stopper The portion 27, the second stopper portion 43, and the third stopper portion 38 are released at the same time. At this time, the first door portion 28 and the second door portion 39 fall downward in the vertical direction, and the partition plate portion 41 rotates to the partition position, so that the first front opening portions 211 and the second The back opening 312 of the door is closed, and the pests that have entered the trap 1 can be confined in the narrow space of the first space C1 by the partition plate 41.

In this second embodiment, the vermin B can be guided into the capture cage not only from the first front opening 211 but also from the second back opening 312, so that the vermin B can be captured. It can be increased with a higher probability.

As described above, the trap cage to which the present invention is applied is lightweight and small, and can increase the capture rate of vermin without giving caution to the vermin.
