Description
*sited gianni @anni otitis.
Lam-s Patent No. 93,185, dem August s, 1869.
IMPROVED ANIMAL-TRAP.
The Schedule referred 'to in these Letters Patent and making of the same.
. My invention relates to that class ofitraps generally known as steel traps, and my improvement consists in certain modifications in the detail of the same.
In' using the various traps heretofore known to hunters and trappers, much diiiiculty has been experienced, from the fact that the animal is'alniost inva-v riably caught by the leg, and in many instances escapes by pulling out or biting ci? the confined members.
Difficulty has also been experienced in so concealing the trap that no part of the same fshall be visible except thc substances with which it is baited. It is believed that both of these diiiiculties are obviated by the present invention.
[1i-the plate of drawings which form a part'of this specification- Figure 1 is a perspective view of my inyention, representing the same set ready for use.
Figure 2, a vertical section of my invention.
A A' is a compressed steel spring of the usual form. To the lower part A of the said spring, is secured, by means of the screw I), the cross-bar B,V\f1hich, in conjunction with the said lower part of v'th'espring A', forms the base of the trap. l; ,i
if preferred, the cross-bar B may avoided to the part A', instead of being secured to the same, as hereinbefore described.
in position by means of the screw and nut D.
The said fulcrum-post has the four radial slots F, in
which are pivoted by the bolts or screws fi, the grapplehooks H.
One end of the base-piece .e is bent at right angles, forming the stem-elbow K, in which is cut the slot L.
Mis the catch-bar, which is hinged to the elbowstem K, at the point L.
N is au upright spike, pivoted in the slot Q, and having a notch, P, to admit the point of the catchbar M.
Thepreseut invention may be operated as follows:
The requisite amount of force being applied to the spring A A', the catch-bar M is passed over the ring S, and its pointed endl inserted in the notch l. The various parts then assume the position indicated in iig. 1, and the trap-is ready for action. K
Having thus described an animal-trap which it is believed possesses marked advantages over those herctofore in use, I will proceed to distinguish those mo lifications in the details of the same which I desire io protect by Letters Patent.
- orum-p ost E, or their equivalents, in combination with the spring A A', the catch-bar M, and upright baitP standard N, substantially as hereiubefore described.
