SENSOR FOR A WIRELESS TRAP DETECTION SYSTEM FOR ANIMALS
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED REQUESTS [0001] This order claims priority for US Provisional Order No. 62 / 443,384, filed on January 6, 2017, and US Provisional Order No. 62 / 541,241, filed on August 4, 2017, whose total content is incorporated by reference in this document.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention [0002] The invention generally refers to the field of trap monitoring systems. More specifically, the invention relates to sensors, for example, tremor switches, used in animal traps or bait stations, which use wireless warning systems. The invention also relates to sensors, such as Hall effect sensors, for use in animal trap monitoring systems.
Background Art [0003] This application relates to wireless event reports and, more particularly, to wireless status reports for animal traps or bait stations.
[0004] Animal traps have been in use for years, and most of these devices use a spring or a live containment trap device. Animal traps are often placed in many locations and can also be moved as needs arise elsewhere. Although these devices
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 41/170
2/38 may be suitable for monitoring locations easily, they are not suitable for locations that are difficult to monitor remotely. A problem with these conventional traps is that they are often placed, for example, in an attic in a house, and there is no easy way to know when the trap is activated in any way other than by viewing them. Another problem with live containment traps is that the animal can be left in a very stressful environment when trapped in the trap for many hours or even days before the activated trap is discovered. An example of such a stressful environment is when a live containment trap is placed in an attic that can reach temperatures above 120 ° F [48.89 ° C]. Another problem with the spring loaded trap is that an animal is often left for long periods of time to begin to decompose, attracting even more animals.
[0005] In addition, an individual should normally remember where each trap has been placed and often check the traps visually to see if they have been suspended, so that they can be redefined and returned. The task of checking traps becomes even more critical in certain sensitive establishments (for example, commercial food) or for wild animals (for example, raccoons, squirrels, species of otters ...) where current laws invoke penalties if an animal get stuck for a very long time.
[0006] Therefore, animal trap activation detection systems have been able to provide basic on / off alert information for
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 42/170
3/38 users with very limited and restricted applications. Examples of this include a spring-loaded trap that sounds a local audio signal when activated. Although this attempts to solve the problem of alerting that a remote trap has been activated, it does not solve the fundamental problem if the trap is at a considerable distance from the user of the trap. In addition, the battery operated audio device has the disadvantage of causing the battery to discharge. Another type of alert system uses sophisticated and expensive detection techniques, such as infrared or motion sensors, which alert the user of the interception once an interception activation has been detected. Still other warning systems use various imaging systems to report the presence of an animal in a trap, however, the transmission of digital images has a high demand for bandwidth and energy. The expense and sophistication of these devices may limit their use in a high-volume, low-tech field, such as pest control. In general, these earlier approaches are very expensive, too sophisticated and have a narrow scope of application.
[0007] US 2004/0020100 discloses an alert system, in which a battery operated wireless radio frequency (RF) sensor / transmitter is incorporated with traps, such as a live containment trap and a spring-loaded trap, along with a receiver configured to receive signals from the wireless RF transmitter.
[0008] US Patent No. 9,380,775 discloses a device powered by a long battery life for monitoring and communicating the state of worm or pest traps.

After an alarm is triggered, the device transmits wireless communication to a server, which interprets the communication to determine the nature and origin of the alarm and send the communication to a user.
[0009] US Patent No. 8,418,396 discloses a human animal trap having a drive circuit coupled to an electronic sensor. The drive circuit includes a detection circuit to determine the presence of an animal within the trap. A wireless alert circuit can be coupled to the detector circuit to provide remote signaling from an alarm unit when the animal trap has been disarmed.
[0010] US Patent No. 6,775,946 discloses wireless transmitters in association with each of a plurality of animal traps and a central display unit, which receives signals from the traps and displays indications of the state of the trap. When an animal takes the bait and launches the trap, the mobile portion of the trap moves to catch the animal. The sensor will detect the movement of the moving member and, when the controller then reads the sensor, a signal will be sent to the display unit to reflect the change in state.
[0011] US patent No. 8,026,822 describes a pest control device, which includes a component, such as a Hall effect device or a magnetoristor, that responds to a magnetic field close to the pest control device for operate the transceiver in an installation mode.
[0012] US Patent No. 9,015,987 discloses an apparatus for monitoring an animal trap having an element of

5/38 mobile trap, which is mobile between an adjusted state and an acted state. The apparatus includes a sensor arranged to detect a condition of the mobile retaining element. The sensor may include a Hall effect sensor or a magnetic switch.
[0013] There remains a need for a detection system that uses simple and inexpensive detection technology, with minimal bandwidth and energy demand, that is well adapted to high-volume, low-cost fields, such as pest control and allows an operator easily identifies the plurality of animal traps needs to be met.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION [0050] This application relates to reports of
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 53/170
14/38 wireless events and, more particularly, wireless status reports for animal traps or bait stations.
[0051] Animal traps or bait stations are often placed in many locations and then moved around as needs arise elsewhere. Wireless status reports of animal traps or bait stations in remote locations to monitor locations, for example, in an attic in a home, may require battery power detection and signal transmission to users. Constant battery drain reduces battery life and can result in a dead battery making monitoring systems inoperable.
[0052] The modalities of the present disclosure include animal sensors, for example, tremor switches, to detect the presence of animals in traps or bait stations. For example, jitter switches may contain closed or open electrical circuit indicators. When an animal activates, directly or indirectly, the switches by means of knocking or swinging switches (or switches that vibrate in response to the mechanical opening of the door), the circuit is closed and the communication signals are distributed over a wireless network to record a capture event. This helps in battery life, as most of the time the electrical circuit is open and the energy is not drained.

Animals 10 may include a base 11 having a distal end 12 and a proximal end 13, a switch 101 having a first metal element 14 and a second metal element 15, and signal unit 30 (see FIG. 3) having transmitters and batteries, which are used to power the transmission of signals to users. In contrast to short-range, high-power technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and ZigBee, signal unit 30 can use Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) technologies, such as Ultra-Wide Band (for example, Sigfox) , spread spectrum (eg LORA) or narrowband technologies (eg WeightlessP) that allow for broader communication and consume less energy.
[0054] The first metallic element 14 and the second metallic element 15 are separated electrically, for example, without physical contact with each other, at the distal end 12 of the base 11 and are electrically connected to the signal unit 30 at the proximal end 13 of the base 11 , thus forming an open circuit. For example, an electrical wire can be soldered to the first metal element 14 and another to the second metal element 15 at the proximal end 13 of the base 11.
[0055] The first metal element 14 can have the hollow region 16 along a longitudinal axis 17 of the first metal element 14. The hollow region 16 can be configured to wrap the second metal element 15 such that an internal surface 18 of the first metallic element 14 surrounds an outer surface 19 of the second metallic element 15. When switch 101 is operated, directly or
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 55/170
16/38 indirectly, for example, oscillated or beaten, this, in turn, causes the inner surface 18 of the first metallic element 14 to contact the outer surface 19 of the second metallic element 15, thus forming a closed circuit, such that signal unit 30 (see FIG. 1G and 1H) transmits signal 32 (see FIG. 1G and 1H) to external receiver 34 (see FIG. 3). The signal 32 can be transmitted wirelessly, for example, RF signals. The first metal element 14 can be a flexible metal element, for example, a spring, cylindrical or tapered tube.
[0056] FIG. 1C-1E show internal views of the animal trap sensor 10 according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. The connections of the first and second metallic elements 14, 15 at the proximal end 13 of the base 11 can be integrated into the printed circuit board (PCB) 102, such that the first metallic element 14 and the second metallic element 15 are separated electrically at the distal end 12 of the base 11 and electrically connected to the signal unit 30 (FIG. 1F) through the electrical conductor 28 at the proximal end 13 of the base 11, thus forming an open circuit. The printed circuit board (PCB) 102 can also help to center the second metal element 15 disposed within the first metal element 14.
[0057] Other embodiments of the invention include, as shown in FIGS. 1G and 1H, switch 101 having the first 102 and the second 103 metal elements in the form of a tongue or plate. Each of which has an outer surface 102a, 103a and an inner surface 102b, 103b, of
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 56/170
17/38 such that the inner surface 102b of the first metallic element 102 and the inner surface 103b of the second metallic element 103 are opposite each other.
[0058] FIG. 1G shows another embodiment of the invention. The first metal element 102 and the second metal element 103 are separated electrically, for example, without physical contact with each other, at the distal end 101a of the switch 101 and are electrically connected to the signal unit 30 at the proximal end 101b of the switch 101, thus forming an open circuit. The first metal element 102 and the second metal element 103 can be in contact with each other by force 104 (as indicated by arrows), for example, a vertical force, caused by an animal stepping on one or both external surfaces 102a, 103a or by an animal contact switch 101, thus pressing one element against the other, such that the inner surface 102b of the first metallic element 102 contacts the inner surface 103b of the second metallic element 103, thus forming a closed circuit , such that signal unit 30 transmits signal 32 to external receiver 34 (see FIG. 3).
[0059] FIG. 1H shows yet another embodiment of the invention. The switch 101 may have an electrical insulator 105 disposed between the inner surfaces 102b, 103b of the first and second metal elements 102, 103, such that the first metal element 102 forms a seesaw-like structure on the inner surface 103b of the second element metal 103 or vice versa, using electrical insulator 105 as a pivot. For example, the first metal element 102 can contact the second element
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 57/170
18/38 metallic 103 by a seesaw movement (as indicated by an arrow) of the first metallic element 102, such that the inner surface 102b of the first metallic element 102 contacts the inner surface 103b of the second metallic element 103, thus forming the closed circuit.
[0060] The metal elements 14, 15, 102, 103 of switch 101 may have sharp edges causing a captured animal to avoid contact of switch 101 with sufficient force to bring the first metal element 14 or 102 into contact with the second element metallic 15 or 103, respectively. Thus, although the animal is captured in the trap, the circuit remains open and no signal is generated or transmitted to the external receiver 34. To eliminate the risks of such false negatives, that is, captured animals that do not activate the switch
101, a sleeve can be used to coat the metal elements 14, 15, 102, 103, in such a way that the sharp edges, which cause avoidance, are protected. Thus, switch 101 can no longer be avoided by captured animals. The sleeve can be made of any suitable materials, such as fabric, plastic, paper or a combination thereof.
[0061] In certain trap configurations, there may be sufficient space between switch 101 and the internal trap surfaces (sides or edges) in such a way that small juvenile animals caught in the trap can avoid contact with the metal elements 14, 15,
102, 103 of switch 101. To eliminate the risks of such false negatives, that is, captured animals that do not
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 58/170
19/38 activate switch 101, the metallic elements 14, 15, 102, 103 can be coated in a conical or other shape, which can create an expanded firing area to increase the probability of contact even the smallest animals. For example, a movement of the sleeve caused by captured animals can take the first metallic element
14, 102 to come into contact with the second metallic element
15, 103, respectively, thus closing the circuit and generating the signal 32 transmitted to the external receiver 34.
[0062] FIG. 2A shows the animal trap sensor 20 according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 2B shows a cross section (A-A) of the animal trap sensor 20 shown in FIG. 2A. The first metallic element 14 and the second metallic element 15 are separated electrically at the distal end 24 of the base 21 and electrically connected with the signal unit 30 (see FIG. 3) through the electrical conductor 28 at the proximal end 26 of the base 21, forming an open circuit. When the switch 101 is actuated, for example, oscillated or beaten, this causes the first metal element 14 to contact the second metal element 15, thus forming a closed circuit, such that the signal unit 30 transmits the signal 32 (see FIG. 3) to external receiver 34 (see FIG. 3).
[0063] An animal trap sensor 20 can optionally have a housing 22 that includes the switch 101. The housing 22 can prevent the switch 101 from being inadvertently actuated, for example, wobbled or knocked and, in turn, causing the first metallic element 14 contacts the second element
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 59/170
20/38 metallic 15 due to environmental factors, for example, dust, debris, partial immersion in water, etc., thus mitigating contamination and minimizing false positives.
[0064] FIG. 3 shows an animal trap sensor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The animal trap sensor 20 can be adapted to electrically connect to the signal unit 30 by connecting the electrical conductor 28 of the animal trap sensor 20 to the electrical receptacle 36 of the signal unit 30. According to other embodiments of the present disclosure, the sensor 20 can be adapted to connect with the signal unit 30 via wire 58 (see, for example, FIGS. 4G, 4H, 5A-5C) or via wireless signals. Signal unit 30 can have reset switch 38 to reset signal unit 30, alternatively reset can be achieved remotely. When switch 101 is actuated, directly or indirectly, for example, oscillated or beaten, this, in turn, causes the first metal element 14 to contact the second metal element 15, thus forming a closed circuit, so so that signal unit 30 transmits signal 32 to external receiver 34 to record or report a capture event.
[0065] For live containment traps, for example, multi-trap traps, animal traps or wild animal traps, the animal trap sensor 20 can be used for a single detection performed. Even if animals in live containment traps continue to close the electrical circuit after the initial capture or if more animals are captured, the receiver

21/38 external 36 may have software to ignore all subsequent capture events. Thus, in another embodiment of the present disclosure, external receiver 36 can be configured to not record or report subsequent capture events after the initial capture event is recorded, even if external receiver 36 continues to receive subsequent signals from signal unit 30 The external receiver 36 can further be configured to resume registration or report subsequent capture events when signal unit 30 is reset using reset switch 38.
[0066] THE FIG. 3 shows that unity in signal 30 can include one control mechanism so in test 31 for start one way of test using The button in mode in test
33. When activating the test mode, for example, pressing the test mode button 33 or similar element, for example, the reset switch 38, on the side of the signal unit 30 or during configuration or during routine maintenance , you can send a test mode signal via signal unit 30, for example, LORA. The test mode button 33 and the reset switch 38 can be the same single button for starting the test mode and restarting. The test signal can be processed and separated from historical data so that the test signal does not count as a capture event to indicate an actual capture of the animal. For example, when the test mode is initiated and switch 101 is activated, that is, the first metallic element comes into contact with the second metallic element, if the external receiver 34 receives signal 32 to record a capture event, this can indicate that the
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 61/170
22/38 animal 20 from end to end, including from sensor 20 to cloud computing, for example, wireless signal transmission 32 and signal recording 32 at external receiver 34, may be operational. On the other hand, if the external receiver 34 does not receive signal 32, this may indicate that animal sensor 20, including from sensor 20 to the computing cloud, for example, transmitting wireless signal 32 and registering signal 32 as an event capture on external receiver 34, may not be operational. Thus, operation in the test mode can allow operators to identify potential problems and resolve them to ensure that sensor 20 and / or signal unit 30 is operational when installing sensor 20 in the animal trap. Each attempt to solve problems can be verified by pressing switch 101 in test mode. For example, successful problem resolution can be indicated by the external receiver 34 that receives signal 32 to record a capture event. This capture event can be signaled as in test mode, so that the external receiver 34 does not count this capture event recorded in test mode as a real capture event, for example, to be used in trend analysis to predict events future catches.
[0067] FIG. 3 shows that signal unit 30 can include accelerometer 35 which measures acceleration on one or more axes of sensor 20, for example, two or three axis accelerometer. If sensor 20 and / or signal unit 30 is pushed or moved, accelerometer 35 can detect rapid movement which causes the acceleration to exceed a predefined acceleration threshold value. The sensor 20 and / or the
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 62/170
23/38 signal unit 30 may subsequently provide a motion signal to external receiver 34 to indicate that sensor 20 and / or signal unit 30 may have been moved and therefore may not be operational. In other words, the motion signal can be used to alert the user that the trap may no longer be in good operating condition, for example, moved from the desired location, for example, not adjacent to the wall, but in the middle of the room . In addition, when the external receiver 34 receives either a motion signal and a capture signal within the temporal proximity, for example, within 1 second, 2 seconds, 5 or 10 between them, the recorded capture event can be treated as false positive. The external receiver 34 may not count this false positive as an actual capture for the purpose of the trend capture event because sensor 20 and / or signal unit 30 has just been moved or pushed and has not actually been driven by animals so that none capture data would be recorded. The test mode control mechanism 31 and the accelerometer 35 can be arranged together in the same signal unit 30 and / or sensor 20. Alternatively, the mode control mechanism 31 and the accelerometer 35 can be arranged separately in different signal units and / or sensors.
[0068] For bait stations, for example, perimeter bait stations (not with a trap), although users can know when animals are feeding and no urgent need to check the feeding event on site, subsequent feeding events or accesses, however, can be useful as a measure of animal activity, for example, to count animals that
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 63/170
24/38 feed on toxic baits or to indicate when it is time to replenish the bait. Thus, in yet another embodiment of the present disclosure, the external receiver 34 can be configured to continue receiving subsequent signals from signal unit 30 and recording or reporting subsequent feed events or occurrences after initial registration.
[0069] The modalities of the present disclosure also include animal trap systems containing animal traps and animal trap sensors to monitor the trap status.
[0070] FIG. 4A shows the animal trap 40, for example, tilting ramp trap, can have a movable cover 42, which can have at least one hole 44, 46, adapted to insert the switch 101 of the animal trap sensor 20 into the inner chamber of the trap
40.
[0071] FIGS. 4B and 4C show an animal trap sensor assembly 20 electrically connected with signal unit 30 before (FIG. 4B) and after (FIG. 4C) switch 101 is inserted into the inner chamber of trap 40 through hole 44. The orifice 44 is located above and along a passage leading to entrance 48, where animals enter trap 40. Once animals pass through entrance 48, animals are expected to fire directly or indirectly, for example, beat or oscillate, switch 101 causing the first metal element 14 to contact the second metal element 15, thus forming a closed circuit, such that the signal unit 30 transmits signals to
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 64/170
25/38 the external receiver to record or report a capture event.
[0072] As described above, the metal elements 14, 15 and the metal tongues 102, 103 can be coated to eliminate false negatives. In case the switch 101 positioned in the path of the animals entry can prevent animals from entering trap 40, as shown in FIG. 4D, switch 101 can be inserted into the inner chamber of trap 40 through hole 46 (see FIG. 4A) or hole 43 (FIG. 4E) in side wall 41. Thus, once the animals pass through the entrance 40, the animals are expected to fire directly or indirectly, for example, to hit or oscillate, switch 101 (FIG. 4F) causing the first metal element 14 to contact the second metal element 15, thus forming a circuit closed, such that the signal unit 30 transmits signals to the external receiver to record or report a capture event.
[0073] FIG. 41 shows, to ensure that animals, for example, mice, of all sizes, would be detected in trap 40, such as a tin cat-style trap, trap 40 may have divider 47 arranged within trap 40 between the main chamber 401 inside the trap 40 and the trap entrance 48. The divider 47 can have at least one opening 49 leading to the main chamber 401. The switch (not shown) can be inserted into the trap 40 through hole 44 and arranged between the opening 49 and trap entrance 48, so that animals entering the main chamber
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 65/170
26/38
401 through opening 49 will cause the first metallic element to contact the second metallic element, thus forming a closed loop, such that the signal unit transmits signal to the external receiver. [0074] FIG. 4J shows that opening 49 of divider 47 can have any suitable dimensions, for example, height (x) and width (y), which would allow animals, such as mice, of all sizes to pass through opening 49. For example, opening 49 may have a height of 15 mm to 25 mm and a width of 15 mm to 30 mm, preferably 18 mm to 22.5 mm (for example, 18.225 mm, 19.225 mm, 20.225 mm, 21.225 mm , and 22.225 mm) in height and from 17 mm to 25.5 mm (e.g., 17.4 mm, 19.4 mm, 21.4 mm, 23.4 mm and 25.4 mm) in width. The divider 47 can be an integral or removable part of the trap and can be made of any suitable materials, for example, plastics, papers, fabrics and / or metals, etc. As a removable part, divider 47 can be arranged inside the trap using any suitable fastener, for example, nails, screws, pins, glues, pastes, velcro fasteners, magnets, etc. The divider 47 itself can be made of magnetized materials and can be directly connected to the metal trap entrance.
[0075] The settings shown in FIGS. 4B-4F can also be applicable to bait stations such that feeding events (or beats) can be monitored when animals within bait stations trigger, directly or indirectly, for example, oscillate or beat, change 101 causing the first metallic element 14 contacts the second element 15, thus forming a
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 66/170
27/38 closed loop, such that signal unit 30 transmits signals to external receiver 34 to record or report power supply events or events.
[0076] FIGS. 4C and 4D show sensor switch that can be connected directly to signal unit 30, for example, LORA signal processor, which is on top of the trap. However, as shown in FIGS. 4G and 4H, for certain applications, extra coverage 45 may be required to cover excess trap 40, for example, tin cat style trap. In these applications, the extra cover 45 would be blocked by signal unit 30, for example, LORA signal processor, sitting on top of trap 40. To solve this problem, FIGS. 4G and 4H show tremor switch (not shown), which is part of sensor 20 and is inserted into trap 40 through a hole in the top 42 of trap 40, can be connected to signal unit 30, for example, signal processor LORA, via wire 58 or wireless signals_ so that signal unit 30 can now rest on top of the extra cover 45 that encloses trap 40. FIGS. 5A, 5B and 5C show other examples that sensor 20 and signal unit 30 may be connected to wire 58 or wireless signals. These configurations can allow sensor 20 and signal unit 30 to be detachably arranged and electrically connected to each other anywhere in traps, which may include tilting ramp, prey trap and wildlife trap, to record the capture event.
[0077] The modalities of the present disclosure may also include multiple jitter switches (for example, 1
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 67/170
28/38
20, preferably at least 2, at least 5 or at least 10) located at multiple bait stations (for example, at least 2, at least 5 or at least 10) or multiple traps (for example, 1-20, of preferably at least 2, at least 5, or at least 10) to connect with a single signal unit 30, for example, LORA signal processor, over multiple wires (for example, 1-20, preferably at least 2, at least 5, or at least 10) or via wireless signals.
[0078] The modalities of the present disclosure can also include tremor switch connected to a mouse trap device that can be triggered by vibration caused by the animal, that is, without direct contact with tremor switch by animals, when the capture is made, when closing the electrical circuit and registering the capture signal.
[0079] FIG. 5A and FIG. 8A show switch 101 (not shown) included in housing 22 of sensor 20, which can be connected to signal unit 30, for example, LORA signal processor, via wire 58 or wireless signals, can be mounted on the claw upper 56 of the spring loaded trap 50, for example, gripping trap. FIG. 8A shows that the sensor 20 can be mounted on the upper claw 56 of the spring trap, for example, gripping trap, by any suitable means, such as a screw 80. When the trap 50 is disarmed or broken, through the vibrating force of breaking, the first metal element 14 and the second metal element 15 come into contact, thus forming a closed circuit, such that the signal unit 30 transmits signals to the
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 68/170
29/38 external receiver 34 to record or report a capture event. Such configurations of the trap sensor system for signal transmission to the external receiver 34 can also be performed using switch 101 without housing 22. For example, FIG. 8B shows the switch 101 without being included in the housing 22 can be similarly mounted on the upper claw 56 of the spring loaded trap, as shown in FIG. 8A. Likewise, when the trap 50 is disarmed or broken, through the vibratory breaking force, the first metal element 14 and the second metal element 15 come into contact, thus forming a closed circuit, such that the signal unit 30 transmits signals to external receiver 34 to record or report a capture event.
[0080] Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 5B, the switch 101 can be positioned on the lower claw 54 of the trap 50, such that, when the trap 50 is activated, the lower claw 54 fits into the upper claw 56. Such movement can trigger, directly or indirectly, for example, beat and oscillate, the switch 101 causing the first metal element 14 to contact the second metal element 15, thus forming a closed circuit, such that the signal unit 30 transmits signals to the external receiver 34. Such system configurations trap sensors for transmitting signals to the external receiver can also be performed by connecting switch 101 to the upper jaw 56. Thus, when trap 50 is disarmed, the upper jaw 56 connected to the switch 101 snaps against the lower jaw 54, making

30/38
with that first element metallic 14 enter in contact o second and metallic element 15, forming so one circuit closed.[0081] FIG. 5C shows the light switch 101 (no shown) included in housing 22 of sensor 20, that Can be connected with the unit in signal 30, for example, LORA signal processor, via 58 thread or signs wireless, Can be connected to the portion bottom 53 of trap
spring-loaded 51 by any suitable means, for example, moorings, ropes, glues, screws, nails, tapes, VELCRO adhesive backs, etc., such that when trap 51 is disarmed, spring 55 snaps against the portion lower 53. Such a movement can trigger, for example, hitting and oscillating, the switch 101 causing the first metal element 14 to contact the second metal element 15, thus forming a closed circuit, such that the signal unit 30 transmits signals to the external receiver 34.
[0082] FIG. 6 shows the switch 101 (not shown) included in the housing 22 which can be positioned close to the trap door 62 of the live containment trap 60, for example, traps for wild animals, such that when the trap 60 is triggered, the closing movement of the trap door 62 forces the housing 22 to vibrate, thus activating, directly or indirectly, for example, oscillating or hitting, the switch 101 inside the housing 22, causing the first metallic element 14 to contact the second metallic element 15, thus forming a closed circuit, such that the signal unit 30 transmits signals to
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 70/170
31/38 the external receiver 34 to record or report a capture event. Such trap sensor system configurations for transmitting signals to the external receiver can also be performed using switch 101 without housing 22.
[0083] In the case of metal traps, for example, tin traps, the first metal element of switch 101 can be part of the trap itself (trap stirrup), for example, negative pole. The second metallic element, for example, positive pole, of switch 101 may or may not be part of the trap itself, but it can be mounted on traps and have any suitable shape, for example, tongue, plate, rod, cone or spring. For example, similar to FIG. 1G and 1H, animals can come into contact with the metal trap, causing the first metal element 102, for example, the stirrup of the trap, to contact the second metal element 103, for example, spring, thus forming a closed circuit.
[0084] FIG. 7 shows a method 70 for animal traps, including providing animal traps (71), for example, live containment traps (for example, tilting ramp traps and wild animal traps) and spring traps (for example, grasp); arrange the animal trap sensor in an animal trap (72), contact the first metal element with the second metal element by activating, for example, oscillating, switch (73) directly or indirectly, when the animal trap is activated, thus forming the closed circuit, and send signals to the external receiver to record or report an event of
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 71/170
32/38 catch (74). Such methods of transmitting signals to the external receiver may also be applicable to recording and measuring the frequency of feed events or impacts at bait stations.
[0085] FIG. 9 shows a method 90 for animal traps, including providing animal traps (91), for example, live containment traps (for example, tilting ramp traps and wild animal traps) and spring traps (for example, grasp); arranging the animal trap sensor in the animal trap (92); optionally initiate a test mode and send a signal to the external receiver (93), where, when the test mode is started, if the external receiver receives the signal to record a capture event, this may indicate that the animal sensor it is operational, on the other hand, if the external receiver does not receive the signal, this may indicate that the animal's sensor is not operational; optionally move the sensor and send a motion signal to the external receiver (94), the motion signal may indicate that the sensor can be moved and, therefore, may not be operational; contacting the first metallic element with the second metallic element, activating, directly or indirectly, for example, oscillation, switch (95), when the animal trap is activated, thus forming the closed circuit; and sending signals to the external receiver to record or report a capture event (96). The capture event recorded in the test mode can be separated from the actual capture event and may not be counted in historical capture events or cannot be used in trend analysis to predict future
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 72/170
33/38 capture events. The initiation of a test mode (93) can be carried out in the configuration of the trap or performing a maintenance of the trap. In addition, when the external receiver receives either a motion signal and a capture signal within the temporal proximity, for example, within 1 second, 2 seconds, 5 or 10, the recorded capture event can be treated as a false positive . Such methods of transmitting signals to the external receiver may also be applicable to recording and measuring the frequency of feed events or impacts at bait stations.
[0086] FIG. 10 shows a method 100 for monitoring an animal trap system using a sensor according to some modalities of the invention which may include steps of testing the sensor (100a), which may include initiating the test mode and contacting the first metallic element with the second metallic element, if the external receiver receives a signal to record a capture event, this indicates that the animal's sensor may be operational and, if the external receiver does not receive the signal, it indicates that the animal's sensor may not be operational ; exit test mode (100b), optionally move the sensor and send a motion signal indicating that the sensor has been moved, for example, moved from the desired location, for example, not adjacent to the wall, but in the middle of the room and, optionally, in contact with the first metallic element with the second metallic element (100c) and monitor a capture event (100d). If the external receiver receives the motion signal and the signal within 10 seconds of each other, the signal (to record a capture event) is recorded as a false positive. 0
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 73/170
34/38 capture event recorded in test mode is not counted as a capture event in a trend analysis to predict a future capture event. The start of the test mode (100a) can be in the configuration of the trap or in the execution of a maintenance of the trap.
[0087] The modalities of the present disclosure can also include animal trap sensors that can be activated by changing the distance between two portions in sensors. For example, FIG. 11A shows that an animal trap sensor can include a first portion 110 and a second portion 112 electrically connected, for example, via electrical wires 116 and / or conductors, with signal unit 30 having power 114, for example, battery and / or solar energy. When the first portion 110 and the second portion 112 are arranged at a first distance from each other, thus generating an output property, for example, stresses. FIG. 11B shows that when the first portion 110 and the second portion 112 are arranged at a second distance d2 from each other, which is different from the first distance dl, thereby changing the output property and causing the signal unit 30 to transmit the signal 32, for example, wired and / or wireless for external receiver 34. When the output property changes, an indicator 30a, for example, LED light, on signal unit 30 can be turned on to indicate that trap 113 is triggered, and signal 32, for example, trigger message, can be sent to external receiver 34. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the first portion 110 may include a magnet and the second portion 112 may include a magnetically responsive component, such as as
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 74/170
35/38 Hall effect sensor or magnetoristor.
[0088] FIG. 11A shows an animal trap system 111 including an animal trap 113 and an animal trap sensor which can include a first portion 110 and a second portion 112 electrically connected, for example, via electrical wires 116 and / or conductors, with signal unit 30 having power 114, for example, battery and / or solar energy. Animal trap 113, for example, spring-loaded traps, such as gripping traps, can include movable portion 115, base 117, and internal spring mechanism 119 configured to urge mobile portion 115 toward base 117. The first portion 110 of the sensor may be arranged in the movable portion 115 and the second portion 112 of the sensor may be arranged in the base 117. Alternatively, the first portion 110 of the sensor may be arranged in the base 117 and the second portion 112 of the sensor may be placed in the mobile portion 115. Although FIGS. 11A and 11B show that the first portion 110 and the second portion 112 of the sensor that can be arranged at the proximal end of the animal trap 113, the first portion 110 and the second portion
Sensor 112, however, can also be arranged at the distal end, which may include claws 118.
[0089] FIG. 11A shows that the animal trap
113 is armed, when the first portion 110 and the second portion 112 of the sensor are arranged at the first distance dl from each other, thereby generating output properties, for example tension.
[0090] FIG. 11B shows that the animal trap 113 is activated when the internal spring mechanism 119
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 75/170
36/38 pushes the movable portion 115 to the base 117, the first portion 110 and the second portion 112 of the sensor are arranged at the second distance d2 between them, which is different from the first distance dl, thus changing the output property and causing signal unit 30 to transmit signal 32 to external receiver 34.
[0091] For example, the first portion 110 may include a magnet positioned on the movable upper portion 115 of the pressure trap 113 and the second portion 112 may include the Hall effect sensor or the magnetoresistor positioned on the base 117 of the trap 113. When the trap 113 is armed, magnet 110 is very close to the Hall 112 effect sensor, thus generating a voltage. When trap 113 is triggered, magnet 110 moves away from the Hall 112 effect sensor, resulting in the second distance d2, being greater than the first distance dl and absence or decrease of the magnetic field. This, in turn, decreases the voltage at the Hall 112 effect sensor. When the voltage decreases, an indicator 30a, for example, LED light, on signal unit 30 can be switched on to indicate that trap 113 is triggered, and signal 32, for example, trigger message, can be sent to external receiver 34.
[0092] FIG. 12 shows a method 120 for monitoring the animal trap system, including arranging the first portion and the second portion of the sensor at the first distance from each other, thereby generating the outlet property (121), arranging the first portion and the second portion of the sensor the second distance from each other, which is different from the first distance, thus changing the output property
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 76/170
37/38 (122) and transmitting the signal to the external receiver (123). [0093] The advantages of the present disclosure may include a single sensor adaptable to many applications, for example, vertical and horizontal gripping traps, live containment traps, bait stations, etc. In addition, sensors of the present disclosure can mitigate the contamination that can generate false positives from dust, debris, partial immersion in water, etc. In addition, the sensors in the present disclosure can make long-term remote monitoring viable with simple battery power, because there is no power drain before the sensor is activated by a capture event.
[0094] The advantages of Hall effect sensors according to some modalities of the present disclosure may include its simple, reliable and inexpensive operations and designs, and its electronic chips that are commonly used in widely available devices and products. They are often used as proximity sensors. In addition, they are small sensors that can be arranged in small compartments in small traps. These closures can then be filled with any suitable waterproof materials, for example, epoxy. For grip traps, Hall effect sensors can detect when a grip trap is open or closed. In addition, there is a low or zero risk of generating a false positive simply by moving the trap without starting it. Hall effect sensors can be adapted to any gripping trap, for example, Victor wood, T-Rex, etc. Hall effect sensors can also work even if the
Petition 870190063397, of 07/08/2019, p. 77/170
38/38 traps are firmly attached to solid surfaces.
[0095] Although the invention has been described in relation to a limited number of modalities, those skilled in the art, with the benefit of this disclosure, will understand that other modalities can be designed which do not deviate from the scope of the invention as disclosed in the present document. . Therefore, the scope of the invention should be limited only by the appended claims.
