Collapsible bat trap

摘要

A collapsible bait trap has a support assembly for netting support arms. The support has a plurality of notches in which the arms are connected. A rotatable gear is attached to the notched support and rotatable from a first position where gear teeth cover the notches to prevent the arms from collapsing thereby holding the netting in its open position, to a second position where the gear teeth do not cover the notches so that the support arms are free to collapse thereby moving the netting to its closed position for convenient storage.
