Abstract

The utility model relates to beekeeping, namely to devices for processing wax raw materials. The device for melting beeswax is a mechanism for feeding frames with wax raw materials, equipped with a conveyor belt. Frames with wax raw materials are fixed onto the conveyor. Water is poured into the tank just below the upper edge of the wax collector. The heating element is connected to the electrical network. After the water boils in the tank, the conveyor is switched on, which moves the frames with wax raw materials to the lower part of the tank. In the area where the frames with wax raw materials move horizontally due to the buoyant force, they assume horizontal positions, which contributes to better wax release. The use of a utility model allows you to automate the process of melting wax from frames with wax raw materials, achieve maximum wax yield from raw materials, and reduce the cost of manual labor and time.

Description

The utility model relates to beekeeping, namely to devices for processing wax raw materials.

The known wax furnace consists of a tank made of stainless steel, an internal partition, chambers, a centrifuge, a heating element, a motor, a casing, a lid, a pipe and a wax press with a basket [1].

A device for melting wax is also known and is melted using boiling water, which includes a tank for boiling wax raw materials with a device for mixing it and a wax collector [2].

The prototype is a device for processing wax raw materials, containing a tank for boiling wax raw materials, inside of which there is a wax collector in the form of a funnel and an electric heating element, a wax press with a screw and mesh connected by a pipe, an inspection window installed in the tank, containers for collecting clean wax and residues [3] .

The disadvantage of the known designs is that the wax melting process is carried out in several stages, and each action is performed using human manual labor. For these designs of wax melters, wax raw materials must be cut out of the frames, cleaning them. As a result, the use of this installation leads to a large expenditure of manual labor and time.

The objective of the utility model is to create a technical solution that allows reducing labor costs when obtaining wax raw materials from frames in a continuous manner and without preliminary cleaning.

The technical result of the utility model is the production of finished wax and clean frames in a continuous manner. The process of separating wax from frames occurs without operator participation, except for loading frames with wax raw materials onto the conveyor.

According to the utility model, the technical result is achieved by the fact that in a water wax melter-wax press containing a tank for boiling wax raw materials, divided into two sections, the lower parts of which are interconnected, and inside the tank there is a conveyor with movable bushings on rollers for feeding frames with wax raw materials, and clean frame releasers are installed on the body.

The water wax grinder-wax press is illustrated with diagrams:

fig. 1 - diagram of a water wax mill-wax press;

fig. 2 - diagram of the location of the frame on the conveyor;

fig. 3 - diagram of the mechanism for fixing and detaching the frame.

A water wax melter-wax press consists of a mechanism for feeding frames 18 with wax raw materials, which is a conveyor belt 1 with movable bushings 2 on rollers 3 and plates 4, and the tank 5 is divided by a partition 6 into two sections, the tank 5 is equipped with a lid 7, a wax collector 8, viewing window 9 and electric heating element 10. The pressing part consists of a press body 11, an electric heater 12, a mesh 13, an adjusting screw 14, a pressing screw 15, as well as containers 16 and 17 for collecting clean wax and marc.

A water wax grinder-wax press works as follows. Frames 18 with wax raw materials are fixed to the movable bushings 2 of the conveyor 1. Water is poured into tank 5, just below the upper edge of wax collector 8. Heating element 10 is connected to the electrical network. After the water boils in the tank 5, the conveyor 1 is switched on, which moves the frames with wax raw materials 18 to the lower part of the tank 5. In the area where the frames with wax raw materials 18 move horizontally due to the buoyancy force of the frame 18, they take horizontal positions, which contributes to better wax release. A partition 6 installed in the tank 5 divides its upper part into two sections, with clean water and wax. In the partition area, the conveyor 1 changes position and at this moment the plates 4 rest against the movable bushings 2 and move them, after which the clean frames 19 are unhooked and float to the surface of the water, where there is no wax.

Since the melting point of wax is 63-66°C, when it gets into boiling water (t=100°C), the wax begins to melt and float to the surface of the water. Over time, the water level in the tank increases due to the supply of a frame with wax raw materials (we observe the level through the viewing window 9) and the melted wax raw materials overflows over the edges of the wax collector 8 and then enters the loading hole of the screw press. As a result of rotation of the pressing screw 15, the molten wax raw material is pressed, the wax penetrates through the mesh 13 and flows into the wax container 16, and the residue through the discharge hole into the residue container 17. The pre-pressing of the raw materials is regulated by the adjusting bolt 14. The body of the wax press has an electric heater 12, which allows the wax raw materials to be in a molten form, facilitates the operation of the press, and increases the yield of wax from the raw materials.

The use of a utility model allows you to automate the process of melting wax from frames with wax raw materials, achieve maximum wax yield from raw materials, and reduce the cost of manual labor and time.
