WIRELESS NOTIFICATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ELECTRONIC RODENT TRAPS

A remote notification electronic rodent trapping system and method is provided having a plurality of rearming electronic rodent trapping devices configured to wirelessly communicate trap information to a base station that is in communication with a cloud server. When a trap is activated by a rodent trigger it changes from a set state to a kill alert state and initiates a killing cycle. The trap waits a first time period and then sends a notification signal to the base station of trap activation which the base station forwards to the cloud server. The cloud server waits a second predetermined time period before sending a pushed notification to a remote user of the trap's kill alert state. If the trap rearms prior to expiration of the second time period, it alerts the base station which notifies the cloud server. The cloud server updates trap status to the set state and does not send a notification to the user.

Rat Catching Box
20200022356 · 2020-01-23 ·

A rat catching box includes a box body, a lifting platform, and a control assembly. The box body is provided with a trap opening and a recovery opening. The lifting platform is disposed at the bottom of the box body, and a rat catching platform parallel to the lifting platform is disposed above the lifting platform. The control assembly is disposed on the box body, and includes a voltage measurement module, a controller, a high-voltage transformer, and a power grid. The voltage measurement module transmits a triggering signal of the power grid to the controller, and the controller controls the high-voltage transformer to supply power to the power grid. The power grid includes a positive power grid line and a negative power grid line. The negative power grid line in disconnection is divided into three segments connected respectively to a negative electrode of the high-voltage transformer.

WASH DOWN SENSOR FOR ELECTRONIC RODENT TRAPS AND METHOD OF PREVENTING FALSE TRIGGERING USING A WASH DOWN SENSOR
20200008417 · 2020-01-09 · ·

An electronic rodent trap is provided that includes a microprocessor and a resistive sensor coupled to a high voltage killing circuit and to a wash down sensor. Upon detecting a resistance, the resistive sensor sends a detection signal to the microprocessor. The microprocessor activates the wash down sensor to determine whether the resistance is above a threshold value and/or shows variation characteristics consistent with the presence of a rodent and thus warranting activation of the killing circuit. Resistance that is below the threshold indicates the presence of water such that the killing circuit is not activated and false triggering of the electronic rodent trap is prevented. Animal traps and monitoring stations incorporating a wash down sensor for pest detection but without killing mechanisms are also provided.
