Definitions

  • the invention relates to the method for uncapping honeycombs.
  • the invention further relates to the device for manual uncapping honeycombs and also to the device for machine uncapping honeycombs comprising the rotating basket for placing the honeycombs for draining the honey coupled with a drive and positioned in a collecting vessel for collection of the drained honey.
  • the hot liquid is the bee honey or water or water steam, at the same time at the water steam the temperature may be higher than 100 0 C. If the bee honey is applied, the temperature of working liquid preferably lies in an interval from 80 to 95 0 C.
  • the principle of device for manual uncapping honeycombs consists in that it comprises a collecting vessel to whose outlet the input of the pump is connected, whose outlet is connected with inlet of heat exchanger, at the same time to outlet of heat exchanger there is connected the outlet hose finished with a nozzle for manual manipulation or for mounting in application section created above the collecting vessel.
  • the device for manual uncapping enables also other activities for the beekeeper, especially it may be used as a filling device for honey, for warming and mixing honey, filtration of honey, dissolution of sugar, as a source of warm water, for melting the wax, evaporating the water from honey, for production of mead and beverages but also for purposeful production of wax and honey emulsion, as well as for further usage according to the requirements of the beekeeper.
  • Principle of the device for machine uncapping the honeycombs consists in that in the collecting vessel against circumference of rotating basket there are arranged nozzles for inlet of hot liquid on the capped surface of honeycombs before draining honey from them.
  • Such device enables total or partial automation of draining process, especially of draining lines. Uncapping is performed at low speeds of rotating basket and once uncapping is completed the rotating basket is brought to speeds necessary to drain the honey from honeycombs, so that total centrifuging of honey is performed, the same as in the honey extractor. Through this the transfer of combs into another device is completely eliminated, everything is done in one machine unit. Therefore it is very advantageous, if the hot liquid is a genuine bee honey as this is a natural part of the whole process.
  • Fig. 1a shows procedural scheme of uncapping method
  • Fig. 1b the scheme of the simplest embodiment of the device
  • the Fig. 2 a device for manual uncapping of honeycombs
  • the Fig. 3 a device for machine uncapping of honeycombs. Examples of embodiment
  • Procedural scheme of the method for uncapping honeycombs represented in the Fig. 1a shows that the basic step is heating of working liquid, formed of genuine bee honey or water, possibly of water steam or other suitable liquid. At the same time the working liquid must be warmed to a temperature higher than the temperature of wax melting, i.e. to the temperature higher than 65 0 C, as regards the liquid, its optimum temperature lies in an interval from 80 0 C to 100 0 C. If the working liquid is honey, the temperature of working liquid 5 lies within interval 80 to 95 0 C. Heating of working liquid is performed in the heating section 1.
  • Hot working liquid from the heating section 1 is transferred into the application section 2, where this is poured onto the capped honeycombs from both sides, which causes washing off the wax from caps - uncapping. Consequently, mixture of working liquid and wax flows into the collecting section 3, in which its purification and wax withdrawal is performed. After purification the working liquid is once again transferred into the heating section ⁇ .
  • the Fig. 1b represents the basic manual embodiment of the device without pump and with a simple heating.
  • Heating section 1 is arranged under the bottom of the collecting vessel 3J. creating the collecting section 3.
  • the collecting vessel 3_1 is partially filled with working liquid 5, which is being preheated here.
  • the discharge valve 6, which serves for flowing in the hot working liquid 5 into the coating vessel 7.
  • Uncapped wax 9 flows into the collecting vessel 3J. and it swims on surface of the working liquid 5.
  • the clean hot working fluid 5 is taken through the discharge valve 6 for further application.
  • the productivity may be increased and service facilitated by replacing the discharge valve 6 with the not represented pump, to whose outlet a hose finished with nozzle leading in an upper part of the collecting vessel is connected for manual coating of honeycombs.
  • the device according to the invention comprises two vessels.
  • the first vessel creates the collecting section 3 and above its upper section there is arranged the application section 2.
  • the second vessel forms the heating section 1, and it is formed of heat exchanger, in the represented embodiment of a tubular heat exchanger H.
  • the tubular heat exchanger H comprises the heating element 111 positioned in a water bath 113, in which also the heating tube 112 is positioned, through which the working liquid 5 is passing.
  • water steam 114 in upper part of the tubular heat exchanger IJ.
  • the tubular heat exchanger 11 comprises the valves 115, the outlet valve 116 and the pressure valve 117 and it is provided with the known not represented system for withdrawal of water steam 114 in case of need.
  • the tubular heat exchanger H is provided with auxiliary heating tube connected to outlet of the heating tube and passing through the water bath 113 of the heat exchanger H, while to an outlet of the auxiliary heating tube the outlet hose 118 with nozzle 119 is connected.
  • the auxiliary heating tube in case of need serves as a steam generator, which is generated at small withdrawal of working liquid from the auxiliary tube in a case that this working liquid is water.
  • the inner space of the heat exchanger 11_ in this case is filled with water bath only.
  • the collecting section 3 is formed of the collecting vessel 31., in which there is positioned the annular vessel 32, which is formed of two concentric cylindrical walls and a bottom and it divides the inner space of the collecting vessel 3J. to the outer annular chamber 321.
  • the cylindrical vessel 33 On the upper outer face of the annular vessel 32 the cylindrical vessel 33 is positioned, while between the annular vessel 32 and the cylindrical vessel 33 there are arranged the separation extensions 331. creating between both vessels the gap 332, which enables an overflow of wax and of a part of the working liquid 5 from outer annular chamber 321 into inner annular chamber 322, in which the wax 9 and with wax polluted working liquid 5 are gathered.
  • the level meter 4 of the working liquid 5 is connected with the outer annular chamber 321. With the level meter 4 in case of need it is possible to add the working liquid 5.
  • the application section 2 comprises upwards dished bottom 21. arranged on upper part of the cylindrical vessel 33. In axis of the dished bottom 21 there is mounted the rotating point 22, against which during uncapping an operator is leaning the frame with honeycomb 8.
  • Temperature of this working liquid 5 must always be higher than melting point of beeswax, i.e. at minimum 65 0 C, the optimum working range is 80-100 0 C, but it can be even higher. If the working liquid is honey, the temperature of working liquid 5 varies in interval from 80 to 95 0 C. If the working liquid is water steam, the temperature may be even higher.
  • Uncapped honeycombs 1 are after this step prepared to be drained in honey extractor of a known structure by means of centrifugal force.
  • the working liquid may comprise water and/or sugar and its temperature lies within interval 80 to 95 0 C 1 respectively its temperature lies under the boiling point of the respective liquid.
  • the described device may be used also for other activities of a beekeeper, e.g. at evaporating water from honey, liquefying crystallic honey or dissolving sugar in water or thawing the wax, etc.
  • the Fig. 3 schematically represents the device for machine uncapping honeycombs.
  • This device comprises the collecting vessel 31., in which there is rotatably positioned the rotating basket 311 of identical or similar structure with honey extractor, into which the frames with honeycombs 8 to be uncapped and after then the honey to be drained are positioned.
