Fig. 1 to 2 show a schematic structural view of a bee-keeping feeder according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, which comprises a feeding chamber 1, a storage tank 3, and a connecting rod 4. referring to fig. 1, the feeding chamber 1 is provided with an inlet and outlet 2 connected to a beehive, and a bee body can move between the beehive and the feeding chamber 1 through the inlet and outlet 2. The feeding chamber 1 may be a net cage or other box body capable of ventilating and transmitting light. The stock chest 3 is the upper end open-ended U shape, and the stock chest 3 is used for storing the required food of bee colony such as water, sweet water, and a plurality of stock chest 3 is piled up in feeding room 1 from supreme down, and the lower extreme that is located the stock chest 3 of one deck can be sealed and cover the upper end opening that is located the stock chest 3 of one deck down, and the lower extreme that is located the stock chest 3 of one deck is equivalent to the upper end open-ended apron that is located the stock chest 3 of one deck down promptly. Before the upper layer of the storage troughs 3 is not removed, the food in the lower layer of the storage troughs 3 is hermetically covered by the upper layer of the storage troughs 3, so that the food in the lower layer of the storage troughs 3 is prevented from being exposed to the outside.
With continued reference to fig. 1, except for the lowest storage tank 3, one end of each of the other storage tanks 3 is connected to one end of a connecting rod 4, the rod body of each connecting rod 4 is hinged in the feeding chamber 1, and a counterweight 5 is hung at the other end of each connecting rod 4, that is, the counterweight 5 and the storage tank 3 are respectively located at two sides of the hinged position of the connecting rod 4 and the feeding chamber 1, so that the connecting rod 4 can be used as a lever.
