PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a small animal capture device in which an interlocking mechanism of a slide door is not noticed and a slide door of a gateway is reliably operated to enable capture.SOLUTION: A small animal capture device comprises a case body 2 with one end being opened, a door support frame 3 of a slide door 4 continuously arranged in an opening 2a of the case body, a slide door being suspended in the door support frame in a freely lifting/lowering manner, and a door activating mechanism 5. The door activating mechanism is constituted of: first wire 6 connected to the slide door second wire 7 connected to the case body a substantially horizontal connecting pin 8 for releasably connecting the first wire with the second wire and activating wire 9 mounting the bait for a small animal in one end, provided with an activating ring 10 for combining and surrounding the connecting pin and the second wire in the other end, and for disconnection.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2018,JPO&INPIT【課題】スライド扉の連動機構に気づかれず、出入口のスライド扉が確実に作動して捕獲することができる小動物用捕獲装置を提供する。【解決手段】一端を開口したケース本体2と、ケース本体の開口部2aに連設したスライド扉4用の扉支持枠3と、扉支持枠に昇降自在に吊り下げるスライド扉と、扉作動機構5とよりなり、扉作動機構はスライド扉に連結した第1ワイヤ6と、ケース本体に連結した第2ワイヤ7と、第1ワイヤと第2ワイヤとを解除自在に連結する略水平状態の連結ピン8と、一端に小動物の餌を取り付け他端に連結ピンと第2ワイヤとを合体して囲繞する作動リング10を設けた連結解除のための作動ワイヤ9とから構成した。【選択図】図1
