PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a trap for surely catching an animal foot.SOLUTION: The animal foot trap includes: a footboard a wire with a loop formed an energizing means installed in the wire and a pair of wire holding frames. In the animal foot trap, a pair of wire holding frames are made to intersect in a nearly X shape in the side view and connected with the intersection point rotatable the lower end of one of the wire holding frames is rotatably connected to the longitudinal one end of the footboard, with a movable frame rotatably connected to the lower end of the other wire holding frame, with this frame arranged in the lower face of the footboard, and with the lower face of the footboard made freely slidable in the longitudinal direction the pair of wire holding frames are made nearly linear in the side view, with a wire loop prepared in the outer periphery of the frames a diameter reducing force is energized to the loop by using the energizing means by an animal foot stepping on the footboard, the pair of wire holding frames become nearly X shape in the side view, so that the wire loop falls out upward from the frames and tightens up to catch an animal foot.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2017,JPO&INPIT【課題】動物の足を確実に捕獲するための罠の提供を目的とする。【解決手段】踏み板と輪差部が形成されたワイヤとワイヤに設置された付勢手段と一対のワイヤ保持フレームを具備した動物用足くくり罠において、一対のワイヤ保持フレームを側面視略X字状に交差させて交点を回動可能に連結し、うち1個のワイヤ保持フレームの下端部を踏み板の長手方向の一端に回動可能に連結し、他のワイヤ保持フレームの下端部に移動用フレームを回動可能に連結し、同フレームを踏み板の下面に配置して、踏み板の下面を長手方向に自由に滑動できるようにし、一対のワイヤ保持フレームを側面視略直線状にして同フレームの外周囲にワイヤ輪差部を装着し、付勢手段を用いて輪差部に縮径力を付勢し、動物の足が踏み板を踏むことにより、一対のワイヤ保持フレームが側面視略X字状となり、ワイヤ輪差部が同フレームから上方へと抜け出て縮まり、動物の足を捕獲する足くくり罠【選択図】図1
