bee hive may besu'pported in "an elevated po sitionisofthat air may circulate beneath the bee hive and thereby "keep the hive dry and prevent it from being. damaged byr'esting upon wetground. j i
; one; object of the invention is to provide a stand'o'f this character which maybe stored or shipped inia knock-down condition and readily" assembled by the user.)
' Anotherobject of the men o isto 'fso form the strips of-materialtrom which'the- U stand is'constructed that they-may be very firmly secured and thereby provide a stand which willpbe very strong and durable and notliabl'eto'comeapart or sag when subjected tothe weight of a bee hive.
' Another object of the:invention -isfto pro; vide the stand-with supporting legs which maylbeeasily forced into the ground and 1 I "have'their' upper en'dportions so connected (with the frameof the stand that they may t er-' minate flush with the upper edge-of the "frameor project above itf inorder to engage corner portions ofa hivesupported uponthe frame Another object'of the'invention istoiso formfthe frame of thestand that the beehive when resting upon the stand will have its lower.pjortion' disposed within the 1 frame in f order to'preventit from accidentally'slipping out of itsjproper position upon the stand.
The invention is illustrated inthe accompanying'drawing, whereinf J I "Figure 1 is a-view showing the'improved stand inside elevation with a'hive toibesup- I ported thereby indicated by dotted lines Fig. 2 is a top plan view ofthestand; Fig. 3 is a fragmentarysectional view taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2 and illustrating one corner portion of the stand, and
' Fig. 4 is a perspective View of the lower end I portion of 'oneof the supportin gilegs of the The stand constituting the subject-matter of this invention includes a frame, indicated 7 in generalby the numeral-rend supporting IegsQwhichare disposed at the corners of .Inf view oft-he fwitha number of openings to receive the tions of the legs relation "thereto. By referring to Fig. 2, it
,atlone end beyond its horizontal flange and this extended end portion ofthe vertical flange is bentinwardlyto extend across the adjacent end offlthehorizontal flange thereby. providing a securing tongue l fi which is of such length that it projects beyondthe inner side edge of the hori zontal flange. This is clearly shown in Figs. 2 and 3, andreferring to these figures it will be seen that, when the side bars are disposed in operative relation to each other with the ends of their horizontal flanges overlapped, the tongues 6 extend 'alongthe vertical flanges v of adjacent side? bars where they are secured by bolts 7zpassed' through registering openlngs-fformed in the vertical flanges and tongues. 4 The supportinglegs2 are also formed of angle meta-1 in orderto provide side flanges 8, and these ,side flanges are formed with a desired-number iof openings 9 which are spacedfrom each other longitudinally ot'the legs and intended to receive securing bolts 10 which also I pass through" openings formed in the vertical flanges and tongues 6 of the" side 'barsfrom which the frame is fact that the legs are provided securing bolts -10, they may be secured to the frame with their upper ends either flush with the upper edges of the side bars or with theirupper end portions proj eoting upward 1y above the frame, as indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 1. It will thus be seen 'that, when the frame is in use, the upper end pormay be allowed to project upwardly abovethe frame and engage the .c'orner'portions .ofabee hive resting upon I the horizontal-flanges of '3 the'frame, as 'shown'in F1g.2,in=depend1ng the frame and theme rn md or CHICAGO; irltmors formed. 7

lower end portions of theside flanges 8 of the legs are folded inwardly,
as shown at 11in and 4, thereby: providing the legs Figs. 1

After thelegs have been applied to the frame, .the stand is placed upon the ground where it is desired to have the bee hive located and the supporting legs maybe easily driven ditional means to prevent the hive frem movthe ground. If the into the ground a sufficient distance to tfirmly anchor the stand. Since the lower ends of the reinforced, as shown in very easily driven into bending orbreaking,

When a hive is supported upon the ';sta-nd,
air may circulate freely b-eneath'it so that the bottom of the hive will be keptdry and also it may be inspected so that spiders and their eggs and webs may beremoved from beneath the hive. When the stand is not .in' use, it may be easily taken apart and -the strips from which it is formed tied together. There'- fore, the stand may be reduced to a compact mass and stored in a small space.
