Definitions
- This invention relates to a tool for apiarists, and has for a particular object thereof the provision of a tool of general utility for care of hives and which is particularly adapted for removal and lifting of the frames of the hive.
- An important object of the invention is to provide a device of this character so constructed that the frame may be readily grasped to lift the same from the hive with the use of but one hand of the operator, thus leaving the remaining hand free to enable the operator to operate the smoker.
- a further object of the invention is to produce a device of this character which is free from dc cate adjustments requiring the unobstructed use-of the hands, thus enabling the operator to employ the device while wearinggloves and to thereby save himself'from the attacks of the bees disturbed by the removal of the frame.
- A. further object of the invention is to provide a device of this character the construction of which is such that crushing of the bees collected upon the surface of the frame which being removed is reduced to the greatest possible extent.”
- a further object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which, in addition to grasping a frame to'perinit its withdrawal from the hive, will rigidly hold the frame after such withdrawal, and which may, therefore, be employed for holding the frame while jarring the same against some rigid surfaceto shake therefrom any bees which may be collected thereon.
- a still further object of the invention is to produce a device of this character the construction of which is such that the an icz tion oi the device to the ordinary beee ool employed in scraping fr es, pr ving them loose fripm the hives and or siinilar operations may be effected without interfering with the efiicient operation of such tool by enabling the operator to have at ArIARIsTs.
- the numeral 10 indicates a base to the under surface of which are securedv a pair of fixed grasping members 11 and These grasping members'are secured at opposite sides of the base and at points spaced longitudinally of the base, and have their grasping points 13 arranged in planes parallel to the longitudinal axis of such base and spaced apart transversely of the base a distance less than the width of the upper frame member 14 of a hive frame 15. Due to the spacing of the members longitudinally of the base, by placing the base upon the frame member so that the longitudinal axis of the frame member and base are in angle to one another, the points may be passed down.- .wardly at opposite sides of'the frame ine1nber 1%.
- ll provide a shaft T13 rotatably directed through the base and having upon the under side of the base a crank 17 the terminal portion of which is provided with a grasping element 18 similar to the grasping elements 11 and 12 and having at its lower end a grasping point 19 similar to the grasping points 13.
- the upper end of this shaft is provided with an angular handle portion 20 by means of which the shaft may be rotated.
- the base by'the engagement of the grasping element 18 against the side of the bar is moved into a position where it extends longitudinally of the bar and accordingly to a position where the grasping elements 13 and the grasping element 19 are engaged in the sides thereof, this engagement being at longitudinally spaced points at one side of the bar and at the opposite side of the bar at a point intermediate these points. It will be obvious that the bar will be rigidly held against movement with relation to the base so long as the handle member remains in this position.
- a fixed handle 21 which the handle section 20 parallels when the grasping of the bar has been accomplished.
- This fixed handle preferably has that end thereof adjacent the shaft 16 secured to a bracket 22 carried by the base, this bracket forming a second support or hearing for the shaft, as indicated at 23.
- the opposite end of the fixed handle may be directly secured to the base, as indicated at 24:.
- the fixed handle being rigid to the base provides a means for manipulating the base as wellas a means for holding the shaft handle in proper position sothat but one hand is necessary in manipulating the base and the bar carried thereby, thus leaving the other hand of the operator free to operate a blower, scraper or any other implement which it is desired to employ. 4
- the base 10 is preferably in the form of a beehive tool having one end thereof flattened and widened, as indicated at'26, to provide a scraping and prying implement which may be inserted between the top of the hive and the end of the bar to free the bar.
- the opposite end 27 is similarly widened and flattened and, in addition, is-bent toward that side of the base upon which the grasping elements 11 and 12 are arranged. This bending provides a greater leverage in freeing the bars from the hive wall 25.
- the base proper is in the form of an ordinary hive tool and as such is not claimed by me as my invention, this hive tool being old and Well known in the art. It is further known to those familiar with the art that when the cover is removed from the hive, for the purpose of removing the frames 15, bees disturbed by the removal of the cover collect upon the upper surface of these frames and accordingly are often crushed in handling of the frames.
- the attaching portions 28 of the grasping elements 11 and 12 and the crank 17 are made of such thickness that they will maintain the upper surface of the bar in spaced relation to the lower face of the base a distance such that bees disposed upon the surface will not be crushed by the upper surface of the bar and the opposed surface of the base.
- This spacing is further such that the angular end 27 of the base will clear the bar as the base is moved into alignment with the bar. At this time the edge of this angular scraping end 27 will come into contact with the upper surface of the bar so that it actually assists in maintaining a spaced relation of the base and' bar.
- I claim 1 Means for removing and manipulating the frames of beehives, the frame having a top bar, said means comprisingja base, a pair of gripping elements carried by said base at points spaced longitudinally of the base, said gripping elements being spaced transversely of the bar a distance less than the width of the top bar, and means carried by the base engaging the side of? a top bar disposed between the gripping elements for shifting the base upon the top lloiar to a position where it parallels said top except as hereinafter 2.

TOOL FOR- Application filed November To all whom it may concern:
Be it known thatI, DEAN S. HALL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Marshfield, in the county of WVashington and State of Vermont, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tools for Apiarists, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to a tool for apiarists, and has for a particular object thereof the provision of a tool of general utility for care of hives and which is particularly adapted for removal and lifting of the frames of the hive.
An important object of the invention is to provide a device of this character so constructed that the frame may be readily grasped to lift the same from the hive with the use of but one hand of the operator, thus leaving the remaining hand free to enable the operator to operate the smoker.
A further object of the invention is to produce a device of this character which is free from dc cate adjustments requiring the unobstructed use-of the hands, thus enabling the operator to employ the device while wearinggloves and to thereby save himself'from the attacks of the bees disturbed by the removal of the frame.
A. further object of the invention is to provide a device of this character the construction of which is such that crushing of the bees collected upon the surface of the frame which being removed is reduced to the greatest possible extent."
A further object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which, in addition to grasping a frame to'perinit its withdrawal from the hive, will rigidly hold the frame after such withdrawal, and which may, therefore, be employed for holding the frame while jarring the same against some rigid surfaceto shake therefrom any bees which may be collected thereon.
A still further object of the invention is to produce a device of this character the construction of which is such that the an icz tion oi the device to the ordinary beee ool employed in scraping fr es, pr ving them loose fripm the hives and or siinilar operations may be effected without interfering with the efiicient operation of such tool by enabling the operator to have at ArIARIsTs.

hand in a single unit tools for loosening the frame, for lifting the frame from position after it is loosened and for scraping from the frame, after it removed, propolis which may have been deposited thereon.
These and other objects I attain by the construction shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred embodiment of the manner of engaging the tool with the top bar being indicated by the showing of the top bar in dotted lines.
Referring now more particularly to the d awings, the numeral 10 indicates a base to the under surface of which are securedv a pair of fixed grasping members 11 and These grasping members'are secured at opposite sides of the base and at points spaced longitudinally of the base, and have their grasping points 13 arranged in planes parallel to the longitudinal axis of such base and spaced apart transversely of the base a distance less than the width of the upper frame member 14 of a hive frame 15. Due to the spacing of the members longitudinally of the base, by placing the base upon the frame member so that the longitudinal axis of the frame member and base are in angle to one another, the points may be passed down.- .wardly at opposite sides of'the frame ine1nber 1%. Attention is called to'the fact that with the base in such position and the points arranged at opposite sides of the frame bar, if the base be moved so that its longitudinal axis parallels the longitudinal axisof the frame bar, these engaging points will be forced into opposite sides of the frame bar so that the frame bar will 'be very firmly grasped. 7
In order to accomplish this 'movement of the base upon the frame bar, ll provide a shaft T13 rotatably directed through the base and having upon the under side of the base a crank 17 the terminal portion of which is provided with a grasping element 18 similar to the grasping elements 11 and 12 and having at its lower end a grasping point 19 similar to the grasping points 13. The upper end of this shaft is provided with an angular handle portion 20 by means of which the shaft may be rotated. When the handle portion is swung outwardly, the crank moved outwardly and it will be obvious that when this crank has been swung outwardly to a point where a plane includ ing the grasping element 11 is arranged at the same side of the bottom of the base as the crank and the grasping element 18 of the crank is spaced transversely of the base a distance greater-than the width of the bar, these grasping elements may be placed at opposite sides of the bar, the grasping element 12 being arranged at one side of the bar, while the grasping elements 11 and 18 are arranged at the opposite side thereof. If the handle 20 is now swung over the base to a point where it parallels the base,
the base by'the engagement of the grasping element 18 against the side of the bar is moved into a position where it extends longitudinally of the bar and accordingly to a position where the grasping elements 13 and the grasping element 19 are engaged in the sides thereof, this engagement being at longitudinally spaced points at one side of the bar and at the opposite side of the bar at a point intermediate these points. It will be obvious that the bar will be rigidly held against movement with relation to the base so long as the handle member remains in this position.
In order to assist in holding the handle member longitudinally of the base, I provide upon the base a fixed handle 21 which the handle section 20 parallels when the grasping of the bar has been accomplished. This fixed handle preferably has that end thereof adjacent the shaft 16 secured to a bracket 22 carried by the base, this bracket forming a second support or hearing for the shaft, as indicated at 23. The opposite end of the fixed handle may be directly secured to the base, as indicated at 24:. The fixed handle being rigid to the base provides a means for manipulating the base as wellas a means for holding the shaft handle in proper position sothat but one hand is necessary in manipulating the base and the bar carried thereby, thus leaving the other hand of the operator free to operate a blower, scraper or any other implement which it is desired to employ. 4
It is well known to those familiar with the art that the frames 15 of the hive are often firmly glued at the ends of the top bars 14 thereofto the upper wall 25 of the hive by the bees thus necessitating, before the frame can be removed, that it be separated at this point. In order that this may be readily accomplished without the necessity of providing an additional tool, the base 10 is preferably in the form of a beehive tool having one end thereof flattened and widened, as indicated at'26, to provide a scraping and prying implement which may be inserted between the top of the hive and the end of the bar to free the bar. The opposite end 27 is similarly widened and flattened and, in addition, is-bent toward that side of the base upon which the grasping elements 11 and 12 are arranged. This bending provides a greater leverage in freeing the bars from the hive wall 25.
As stated above, the base proper is in the form of an ordinary hive tool and as such is not claimed by me as my invention, this hive tool being old and Well known in the art. It is further known to those familiar with the art that when the cover is removed from the hive, for the purpose of removing the frames 15, bees disturbed by the removal of the cover collect upon the upper surface of these frames and accordingly are often crushed in handling of the frames.
In order to prevent this-crushing, as far as possible, the attaching portions 28 of the grasping elements 11 and 12 and the crank 17 are made of such thickness that they will maintain the upper surface of the bar in spaced relation to the lower face of the base a distance such that bees disposed upon the surface will not be crushed by the upper surface of the bar and the opposed surface of the base. This spacing is further such that the angular end 27 of the base will clear the bar as the base is moved into alignment with the bar. At this time the edge of this angular scraping end 27 will come into contact with the upper surface of the bar so that it actually assists in maintaining a spaced relation of the base and' bar.
It will be obvious that a structure of this character will be very useful in handling the frames of hives and is capable of a certain range of change andinodification without materially'departing fromthe spirit of my invention, and I accordingly do not limit myself tosuch specific structure as hereinbefore set forth claimed. 7
