Description

The invention relates to agriculture and is used to control pests of bees, ranging from rodents-mice of various species to insect parasites. Of which the most insidious is the tick of the bee / varroa /, which is mainly fought with various drugs, one of which is bipin, which is used seasonally for a year to treat bees from ticks / hereinafter - varroatosis /.

This drug does not completely relieve bees of varroatosis in order to rid the bees of it as much as possible; for this, the bees are heat treated with the device provided in ed. St. SU No. 1480012, class A01K 47/00, 10/15/1988 [3]. But in order to process these devices, it is necessary to transfer them from the hive to a heat chamber, where the temperature should be within + 40 ° C, and after the bees have been kept for a certain time in the heat chamber, they are transferred back to the hive. Processing the bees in this way causes unnecessary anxiety and irritation of the bees, and this work is tiring for the beekeeper.

In addition to the above method, there is also a method of treating bees from varroatosis directly in the hive, in which a household electric iron / cm is used to heat the air. Patent RU 2258359 C2, A01K 51/00, 20.10.2008 /.

With this method of heating the bees, there is a danger of the hive igniting and a danger from an electric shock to the beekeeper if the current-carrying wires of the iron are damaged.

These hives are not protected from penetration of various pests of bees from outside.

The aim of the present invention is to eliminate those disadvantages that have methods for combating various pests of bees.

This goal is achieved by the fact that for heating the air inside the hive, thermoelectric batteries are placed in it, see [1], [2] located at the bottom of the hive, connected by wires through the temperature regulator to the power supply unit, and covered with a metal plate on top, over which with some the distance is a metal grid with sections 3 × 3 mm in size, a mop is placed between the grid and the plate to remove varroa mites from the plate, and the hive is placed on racks 30 cm high from the ground, between the racks and the bottom of the hive They have dielectric cups having the shape of a truncated cone directed vertices up to the bottom of the hive; on the racks, wires with a distance of 1.5-3 mm between them are wound in one layer and connected to the power supply unit.

In those places where there is no power supply in apiaries, in this case, to combat the above methods against bee pests, it is necessary to use autonomous installations, various types of power generators, wind power generators, solar panels, etc., suitable for local conditions.

Figure 1 shows a General view of the hive; figure 2 - components of the bottom of the hive; figure 3 - conical glass with a rack with wound on it with electric wires, a detailed view; figure 4 - schematic structural electrical diagram of the hive.

The presented beehive consists of the following main parts and details: body 1, roof 2, letka 3, gate 4, arrival board 5, bottom 6, racks 7, metal plate 8, metal mesh 9, mop 10, cords 11, guide rods 12, thermoelectric batteries 13, see [2], [3], a radiator base 14 made of aluminum metal; windows 15, covers 16, conical glasses 17, wires of the racks 18, thermistor / thermistor / 19, see [4]; time relay / timer / 20, see [5], with an action time of up to 30 min; temperature regulator 21, see [6], power supply unit 22 having current and voltage converters / not shown in FIG. 4 /; electric current switches 23, 24, 25, toggle switch / electric current / 26 switch, electric wires 27, 28, 29, 30.

In Fig. 4, on the right side of line 32, the details are mounted on the power supply unit 22, and on the left side of the line, these parts are in the hive.

The proposed hive in the application is no different from the usual hive, except for its bottom, which is considered in this application.

Thermal / thermal / processing of bees is as follows.

To process bees, it is necessary to initially turn on the power supply unit 22 with a switch 23 to the power supply 31, an electric current will be supplied to the power supply unit 22 through wires 27; on the thermostat 21, set the switch to the desired temperature, in this case, 40 ° C; with a latch 4 close the letok 3, on the time relay 20 set the switch for the duration of the heating of the hive; switch the toggle switch 26 to position 33, turn on the switch 25, the wires 30 will be supplied with electric current to the thermoelectric battery 13 located inside the hive and lying with the cold side on the radiator-base 14 of the bottom 6, and with the hot side directed upwards on the metal plate 8, and when heated it is created from the thermoelectric battery 13 in the hive, the air temperature is 40 ° C, affecting the bees and from this their varroa mites will be separated from their bodies and, passing through the holes of the metal mesh 9, will fall on the heated metal plate 8 and finally die on it.

Varroa mites are removed from the surface of the plate with a mop 10, for this it is necessary to open the cover 16 and pull on the cord 11, the mop will begin to move along the guide rods 12 after the cord, removing dead warroa mites from the surface of the metal plate 8 and throwing them out through the window 15 outside the hive. After that, the window is closed by the lid 16, but the mop 10 remains in place for the next cleaning of the varroa mites, in which case the mop should be pulled with the cord 11 in the opposite direction.

To stop the supply of electric current to the hive, it is necessary to disconnect it from the power supply 31 with the switch 23.

For continuous heating of the hive, for example, in winter, it is necessary to switch the toggle switch 26 to position 34, this will bypass the time switch 20 and the electric current will be supplied directly to the hive.

To prevent various bee pests from entering the hive from outside, on the power supply unit 22, the switch 24 is turned on and wires 28 begin to flow through wires 28 to the wires 18 of the racks 7. In case of rising up the racks 7 of various kinds of bee pests from the ground 35, including rodents mice, they will not be allowed to get conical glasses 17 to the hives, and in contact with the electric wires of 18 racks 7 they will receive an electric shock, from which they will fall back to the ground 35, see [7].

The temperature controller 21 with wires 36 is connected inside the power supply unit 22 with an electric current.

The advantage of this method to combat varroatosis is that preliminary preparation of the bees for their heat treatment is not required and there is no danger of the hive igniting and electric impact on the maintenance personnel, since the consumed electric current is supplied to the hive with a voltage of 15 V, see [3].
