(under subclass 92) Jaw-traps where the invention lies in such a modification of the trigger mechanism that one of the jaws or the trap-spring is engaged directly by an element which is designed, to be moved by the victim in its effort to get the bait, whereupon the jaws are released to catch the victim.
(1) Note. If there are intermediate parts between the element moved by the victim and the element which holds the jaws set, the trigger is not regarded as a direct-engaging trigger.
