RU2237994C2 - Hive for keeping of honey bees - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: apiculture, in particular, honey bee keeping hive.

SUBSTANCE: hive has casings arranged one above another and equipped with frames. Casings have hollow walls produced by blowing of food-grade polyethylene. Each casing is 520x520x175 mm sized and equipped with angular opening for mounting casings onto vertical pole. Casings incorporate mobile wire baskets for frames. Vertical pole is made from aluminum pipe of 22 mm diameter with openings for splints adapted for hive blocking.

EFFECT: simplified construction, convenient operation and maintenance of hive, improved hygienic conditions and transportation.

Description

The invention relates to beekeeping, namely to beehives for keeping bees.

Known multi-hive, containing mounted on top of each other with frames.

In a horizontal section, the casing has a rectangular section (RU 2011340 C1, 04/30/1994).

A disadvantage of the known hive is the significant material consumption, the complexity of transportation and operation during the period of honey collection.

The technical result of the invention is the ability to minimize beehive mass, material consumption, manufacturing time, beehive service time, ensure unconditional interchangeability of beehive parts, eliminate permanent repairs of Russian multihull beehives, improve convenience, hygiene, transportability, ease roaming, making it possible for women to work in apiaries, adolescents, the elderly, eliminate multiple disassembly of multihull hives during the period of honey collection, which significantly reduces productively be bees in all respects.

The invention is illustrated in the drawing, which shows a General view of the hive.

The beehive for keeping honey bees includes standardized cases 1 with a size of 520 × 520 × 175 mm, brood frames 2 and store frames 10 with an artificial wax screen and Hoffmann separators made with hollow walls by blowing out of food plastic. The surface of the outer hollow wall of the body is ribbed, the inner surface is rough. The housing has 4 corner holes ⌀ 22 mm and side 8 holes. ⌀ 8 mm for cotter pins 12 and for support brackets 13 and bracket 14, there is a groove in the groove 12 × 50 mm and on the inner surface around the perimeter there are 8 spikes - the top row and 4 spikes - on the bottom. Mobile wire baskets 3 with a set of broods - 12 pcs. Are suspended on the upper row in the cavities of the cases. and storefront - 10 pcs. framework.

For greater turbulence and mobility of the air and bees in the hive, baskets with frames are suspended vertically in the cases crosswise in relation to the blocks of the frames, i.e. deployed floor by 90 °, which is indicated in figure 1 by the + sign. Cases with an angular hole are sequentially mounted one above the other with the possibility of their rotation on a vertical axis, a pipe ⌀ 22 × 2 mm, consisting of two identical parts 11 in height. In summer, two parts, in winter, one part of the axis is split for operational reasons.

A roof 5 of rigid closed-cell foam is placed on top of the axis.

The lower casing — the casing-pallet on the spikes — contains a grid 6 with 3 × 3 mm cells, and in winter another grating complete with an absorbing-hygroscopic cushion 8. Upper casing — the ceiling casing contains the same grating. Two wire mesh 7 with mesh. 4.5 × 4.5 mm are divided, one - families of queens, the other - a brood nest and a store. Between the pallet body and the lower brood housing there is a horseshoe 15 for the formation of a summer letka with an access bar. The summer door is closed by a valve 17 turning on the cotter pin, the device is made of laminated plywood with a thickness of 16 mm, and is removed in winter. Passenger polyethylene 2 mm thick plates with 4 holes are mounted on the spike in the groove groove of the housings and serve as a visor, or when folded, as a plug, or to reduce the groove. With the help of the bow, a basket with a set of frames is removed from the case.

Under the base of the hive are two wooden blocks 16; with two holes, the beehive is planted on pegs 18, driven into the ground through holes in one of the bars.

To completely block the hive during transportation, a second, upper part of the axis, the pipe, which is released from its main location during transportation, is installed diagonally into a free row of corner openings of the buildings and the roof.
