Description

“EQUIPAMENTO AUTOMATIZADO PARA DESOPERCULAR O FAVO DE MEL’’ “AUTOMATED EQUIPMENT FOR UNCAPPING THE HONEYCOMB”
[001 ] Trata o presente pedido de patente de um equipamento automatizado desoperculador do favo de mel, que compreende mecanismo de retomo automático desoperculador e é constituído de roletes compostos por palhetas com cerdas em fios de nylon (8B) que estão diretamente acopladas aos eixos dos motores elétricos (M1 ), dos quais recebem força motriz, permitindo uma eficiência de 1750 rotações por minuto dos roletes. As cerdas (8B) apresentam fios macios e flexíveis que permitem uma desoperculação rápida (3 a 5 segundos/caixilho) e sem danificar os favos; o uniforme distanciamento dos fios ao longo das palhetas garantem favos padronizados, o que beneficia a postura das rainhas no início do próximo ciclo. O contato do mel se dá exclusivamente com os roletes e o recipiente, que é fabricado em aço inox, descartando qualquer possibilidade de contaminação do alimento; o sistema mecânico fica em um compartimento separado, possuindo ainda um sistema de vedação como segurança, além de utilizar lubrificação atóxica e não apresentar polias, correias e nem engrenagens, conferindo à máquina baixo ruído, ao contrário daquelas presentes no mercado. [001 ] The present patent application deals with an automated equipment for uncapping the honeycomb, which comprises an automatic uncapping mechanism and consists of rollers composed of blades with nylon bristles (8B) that are directly coupled to the shafts of the electric motors (M1 ), from which they receive motive power, allowing an efficiency of 1750 rotations per minute of the rollers. The bristles (8B) have soft and flexible wires that allow quick uncapping (3 to 5 seconds/frame) and without damaging the combs; the uniform distance of the threads along the reeds guarantees standardized combs, which benefits the laying of the queens at the beginning of the next cycle. The contact of the honey occurs exclusively with the rollers and the container, which is made of stainless steel, discarding any possibility of contamination of the food; the mechanical system is in a separate compartment, with a sealing system as a safety feature, in addition to using non-toxic lubrication and not having pulleys, belts or gears, giving the machine low noise, unlike those available on the market.
[002] As Abelhas, ao encherem os alvéolos com mel, aguardam que esse mel perca água, ficando mais espesso e nesse momento elas fecham os alvéolos com uma fina camada de cera, o opérculo. Quando se colhe o mel, é necessário retirar esses opérculos para que o mel escorra dos favos por centrifugação. Esta remoção chama-se de desoperculação. [002] Bees, when filling the cells with honey, wait for this honey to lose water, becoming thicker and at that moment they close the cells with a thin layer of wax, the operculum. When the honey is harvested, it is necessary to remove these caps so that the honey drips from the combs by centrifugation. This removal is called uncapping.
[003] A desoperculação pode ocorrer de forma manual, a quente, com a utilização dos chamados faca ou garfo desoperculadores, que para serem usados devem ser aquecidos para cortar a cera. No entanto, esse processo exige muita prática do apicultor, assim como muito tempo de operação. Não obstante, a prática da desoperculação do favo de mel, por meio do referido garfo, exige muito esforço físico do apicultor para a extração do opérculo, trazendo malefícios a sua saúde em curto prazo, como tendinites, dentre outros. [003] Uncapping can occur manually, hot, with the use of so-called uncapping knife or fork, which to be used must be heated to cut the wax. However, this process requires a lot of practice from the beekeeper, as well as a lot of operating time. However, the practice of uncapping the honeycomb, through the aforementioned fork, requires a lot of physical effort from the beekeeper to extract the operculum, bringing harm to their health in the short term, such as tendinitis, among others.
[004] Além disso, a técnica convencional de desoperculação toma o processo para a extração do mel moroso, acarretando um baixo rendimento na produção. [005] Existem também desoperculadoras industriais a quente em que se carrega os caixilhos e mecanismos móveis automaticamente desoperculam os favos. Como exemplo podemos citar a desoperculadora descrita no documento MU 6601462-0 U2, que descreve uma faca para desopercular favos de mel, a qual é aquecida por uma bateria, que lhe fornece energia elétrica, que aquece uma resitência a uma temperatura perto dos 80°, com um consumo aproximado de 2,5 A/h. Alguns documentos descrevem máquinas que fazem a deoperculação a frio como exemplos podemos citar os documentos US2139298A , US1084141A, RO114533B1 , US3293672A e PI 8303534-6 que descrevem dispositivos que utilizam elementos de corte para desopercular os favos de mel. No entanto, apesar do avanço tecnológico apresentado por essas máquinas ao se compará-las com a desoperculação manual, o uso de elementos de corte não é vantajoso por poder danificar os favos e o caixilho, além de não serem tão eficientes no processo. [004] In addition, the conventional technique of uncapping takes the process for the extraction of honey sluggish, resulting in a low yield in production. [005] There are also hot industrial uncapping machines in which the frames are loaded and mobile mechanisms automatically uncapping the combs. As an example we can mention the uncapping machine described in the document MU 6601462-0 U2, which describes a knife for uncapping honeycombs, which is heated by a battery, which supplies it with electrical energy, which heats a resistor to a temperature close to 80° , with an approximate consumption of 2.5 A/h. Some documents describe machines that make cold decapping, as examples we can cite documents US2139298A, US1084141A, RO114533B1, US3293672A and PI 8303534-6 which describe devices that use cutting elements to uncapper honeycombs. However, despite the technological advance presented by these machines when comparing them with manual uncapping, the use of cutting elements is not advantageous because it can damage the combs and the frame, in addition to not being as efficient in the process.
[006] Já as máquinas mais modernas realizam o processo a frio, sem o uso de facas como exemplo podemos citar o documento O documento BR 202016022270-8 U2 que descreve uma desoperculadora automática com remoção dupla face através de rolos com cerdas flexíveis desenvolvida para eliminar os danos a parte estrutural do caixilho (madeira), e desta forma, removendo pequenas quantidades de cera de ambos os lados simultaneamente através de dispositivos rotativos, compostos por dois rolos com cerdas flexíveis, paralelos entre si. Nesse dispositivo, o favo corre através de esteiras em movimento horizontal até as cerdas, tomando o processo moroso quando comparado ao da presente invenção, no qual os favos são introduzidos e retirados em questões de poucos segundos diretamente do equipamento desoperculador, através de seu retorno imediato para as mãos do manipulador. Além disso, todas as desoperculadoras encontradas no estado da técnica não são tão eficientes quanto a da presente invenção, tanto no que se refere ao tempo de desoperculação quanto às vantagens práticas que a nossa invenção apresenta, as quais estão listadas abaixo: Segurança para o apicutor na sua manipulação: a tecnologia não uitiliza garfos e nem facas, trata-se de um equipamento totalmente seguro que não confere riscos para o apicultor. A invenção permite a desoperculação através do atrito de cerdas com o favo de mel, que pode ser operado por qualquer pessoa, assim como ser desmontado para manutenção e ser higienizado; Otimização do processo de desoperculação sem danificar os caixilhos: Os roletes contendo as cerdas apresentam cerca de 1750 rotações por minuto, isso associado à maciez dos fios de nylon das cerdas e ao retomo imediato do caixilho diretamente para as mãos do apicutor, permitem uma desoperculação rápida, em 3 a 5 segundos, e sem risco de danificação dos favos; ao reduzir demasiadamente o tempo desse processo para cerca de três a cinco segundos, promove-se um ganho de rendimento altamente produtivo para a desoperculação em escala. Além disso, as cerdas adentram a região do favo de mel, sem atingir a sua moldura, assim, propiciando uma extração do mel mais eficiente; [006] The most modern machines perform the cold process, without the use of knives, as an example we can mention the document BR 202016022270-8 U2 that describes an automatic uncapper with double-sided removal through rolls with flexible bristles developed to eliminate damage to the structural part of the frame (wood), and in this way, removing small amounts of wax from both sides simultaneously through rotating devices, composed of two rollers with flexible bristles, parallel to each other. In this device, the comb runs through mats in horizontal movement to the bristles, taking a long process when compared to the present invention, in which the combs are introduced and removed in a matter of a few seconds directly from the uncapping equipment, through their immediate return to the manipulator's hands. In addition, all the uncapping machines found in the state of the art are not as efficient as the one of the present invention, both in terms of uncapping time and the practical advantages that our invention presents, which are listed below: Safety for the beekeeper in its handling: the technology does not use forks or knives, it is a completely safe equipment that does not pose risks to the beekeeper. The invention allows the uncapping through the friction of bristles with the honeycomb, which can be operated by anyone, as well as being disassembled for maintenance and being sanitized; Optimization of the uncapping process without damaging the frames: The rollers containing the bristles have about 1750 rotations per minute, this associated with the softness of the nylon bristles and the immediate return of the frame directly to the beekeeper's hands, allow for a quick uncapping , in 3 to 5 seconds, and without risk of damage to the combs; by greatly reducing the time of this process to about three to five seconds, a highly productive yield gain is promoted for uncapping at scale. In addition, the bristles penetrate the honeycomb region, without reaching its frame, thus providing a more efficient honey extraction;
^Apresenta sistema de recolhimento e liberação automático do caixilho; o operador coloca o caixilho na máquina, que é responsável por puxá-lo para dentro e assim que reduzida a resistência devido à diminuição da cera na superfície no favo, ao longo do atrito, retorna-se à posição inicial por meio da atuação de um par de molas de tração; Esse processo pode ser acelerado ou retardado pelo operador que pode auxiliar a descida e a subida do quadro manualmente, fazendo o uso de apoios de mãos destinados para essa função; Os roletes são diretamente acoplados aos eixos dos motores; fazendo com que a transmissão de energia seja mais eficiente, pois dispensa perdas que correias/polias ou correntes/engrenagens apresentariam, além de reduzir ruídos, custos de manutenção e riscos de acidentes para o operador; O contato do mel se dá exclusivamente com os roletes e o recipiente fabricado em aço inox, uma vez que o equipamento consiste de mancais de rolamentos e motores elétricos que ficam em compartimento separado com sistema de vedação de segurança e com lubrificação atóxica, ou seja, não utiliza correias e nem polias, descartando qualquer possibilidade de contaminação do alimento; As cerdas em contato com o favo são fios, preferencialmente de nylon, flexíveis e fixados a um palhete de forma que o diâmetro e material do fio podem ser adaptados de acordo com as medidas do favo a ser desoperculado. Os fios podem ser substituídos individualmente ou trocando a palheta inteira; ! máquina possui ajuste manual de espaçamento dos roletes, que é feito através de dois fusos que ficam nas suas laterais; esta regulagem serve para ajustar a distância dos roletes de acordo com a medida de favo a ser desoperculado; Ela permite um ajuste fino de penetração do fio no favo, e uma vez regulada, apresenta dois parafusos de segurança para travamento na posição selecionada; ^Features automatic frame collection and release system; the operator places the frame in the machine, which is responsible for pulling it in and as soon as the resistance is reduced due to the decrease in the wax on the surface in the comb, along the friction, it returns to the initial position through the actuation of a pair of traction springs; This process can be speeded up or slowed down by the operator who can manually assist the lowering and raising of the frame, making use of handholds. intended for that function; The rollers are directly coupled to the motor shafts; making the transmission of energy more efficient, as it eliminates losses that belts/pulleys or chains/gears would present, in addition to reducing noise, maintenance costs and risk of accidents for the operator; The contact of the honey occurs exclusively with the rollers and the container made of stainless steel, since the equipment consists of rolling bearings and electric motors that are in a separate compartment with a safety sealing system and non-toxic lubrication, that is, does not use belts or pulleys, ruling out any possibility of food contamination; The bristles in contact with the comb are wires, preferably of nylon, flexible and fixed to a reed so that the diameter and material of the wire can be adapted according to the measurements of the comb to be uncapped. The wires can be replaced individually or by changing the entire reed; ! machine has manual adjustment of roller spacing, which is done through two spindles that are on its sides; this adjustment serves to adjust the distance of the rollers according to the honeycomb measure to be uncapped; It allows a fine adjustment of the penetration of the wire in the comb, and once adjusted, it has two security screws for locking in the selected position;
• Padronização dos favos: o uniforme distanciamento dos fios constituintes das cerdas ao longo das palhetas garantem favos padronizados, o que beneficia a postura das rainhas no início do próximo ciclo; A máquina permite o uso de caixilhos de diferentes alturas, através de sistema de regulagem da altura. Os roletes trabalham na horizontal, favorecendo o sentido de escoamento do mel. O equipamento é ajustável em diversos tamanhos e marcas de mesas desoperculadoras através de um sistema de roldanas localizado na parte inferior da máquina; Essa intercambialidade descarta a necessidade do cliente comprar um tipo específico de mesa para usar a máquina; • Standardization of the combs: the uniform spacing of the strands that make up the bristles along the blades ensures standardized combs, which benefits the posture of the queens at the beginning of the next cycle; The machine allows the use of frames of different heights, through a height adjustment system. The rollers work horizontally, favoring the flow direction of the honey. The equipment is adjustable in different sizes and brands of uncapping tables through a pulley system located at the bottom of the machine; This interchangeability eliminates the need for the customer to buy a specific type of table to use the machine;

DESCRIÇÃO DETALHADA DA INVENÇÃO DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0021] A presente invenção refere-se a um “EQUIPAMENTO AUTOMATIZADO PARA DESOPERCULAR O FAVO DE MEL”, descrevendo um equipamento automatizado (1 ), o qual foi desenvolvido para desopercular favo de mel por meio do seu mecanismo de retomo automático e mecanismo desoperculador, cujo equipamento é composto por roletes (8) e cerdas (8B), sendo que os roletes (8) são apoiados em mancais de rolamento (10), recebendo força motriz de motores elétricos (M1 ) e as cerdas (8B) são fixadas em palhetas e/ou outros elementos de fixação. Desta forma, os roletes (8) são postos em paralelo, configurando um canal de cerdas (8B), com a espessura exata para a passagem do caixilho (F). [0021] The present invention refers to an "AUTOMATED EQUIPMENT FOR UNCAPPING THE HONEYCOMB", describing an automated equipment (1 ), which was developed to uncap the honeycomb through its automatic return mechanism and uncapping mechanism , whose equipment is composed of rollers (8) and bristles (8B), and the rollers (8) are supported on rolling bearings (10), receiving driving force from electric motors (M1) and the bristles (8B) are fixed on vanes and/or other fastening elements. In this way, the rollers (8) are placed in parallel, configuring a bristle channel (8B), with the exact thickness for the passage of the frame (F).
[0022] Mais particularmente, o equipamento automatizado (1 ) desoperculador de favo de mel é montado a partir de uma estrutura (2) compreendendo barras de apoio (3) e roldanas (4) dispostas nas extremidades da referida estrutura (2). Desta forma, o equipamento poderá deslizar em mesas centrifugadoras de mel, tanto no sentido transversal, como no sentido longitudinal, por meio da estrutura (2) dotada de roldanas (4). [0022] More particularly, the automated honeycomb uncapping equipment (1) is assembled from a frame (2) comprising support bars (3) and pulleys (4) arranged at the ends of said frame (2). In this way, the equipment will be able to slide on honey centrifuge tables, both in the transversal and in the longitudinal direction, through the structure (2) equipped with pulleys (4).
[0023] Ademais, a estrutura (2) recebe um suporte do motor (7) sustentado por elementos de ajuste fino (5), ao passo que o suporte do motor (7) toma função de ancorar os motores elétricos (M1 ). Os motores elétricos (M1 ) são conectados em uma chapa lateral A (11A) compreendida por orifícios (12), que possibilitam a conexão dos motores elétricos (M1 ) aos roletes (8). Ademais, os roletes (8) transpassam os orifícios (12) da chapa lateral B (11 B), sendo conectados a mancais de rolamentos (10). [0023] In addition, the structure (2) receives a motor support (7) supported by fine adjustment elements (5), while the motor support (7) takes on the function of anchoring the electric motors (M1). The electric motors (M1 ) are connected to a side plate A (11A) comprised of holes (12), which allow the connection of the electric motors (M1 ) to the rollers (8). In addition, the rollers (8) pass through the holes (12) of the side plate B (11 B), being connected to rolling bearings (10).
[0024] Vale pautar, que os mancais de rolamentos (10) são ancorados/fixados ao suporte dos mancais (14), que é fixado à chapa lateral B (11 B), assim, os motores elétricos (M1 ) geram força motriz para os roletes (8). [0024] It is worth mentioning that the rolling bearings (10) are anchored/fixed to the bearing support (14), which is fixed to the side plate B (11 B), thus, the electric motors (M1 ) generate driving force for the rollers (8).
[0025] Ademais, junto do mecanismo desoperculador encontra-se o mecanismo de retorno automático desoperculador (MD), o qual é constituído por dois suportes de retomo (15) do caixilho (F), simétricos e opostos, compreendidos por dispositivos em “L” (16), ao passo que os dispositivos em “L” (16) se deslocam de forma vertical nos suportes de retorno (15), que, para tal, os suportes são compreendidos de fendas (17), que permitem os dispositivos em “L” (16), juntamente com molas de retorno (32), se deslocarem quando o operador empurra os referido dispositivos em “L” (16) por meio de suas abas (18). Os dispositivos em “L” (16) também apresentam trilhos (19), os quais acomodam o caixilho (F). Assim, configura-se o mecanismo de retomo automático desoperculador (MD). [0025] In addition, next to the uncapping mechanism is the automatic return uncapping mechanism (MD), which consists of two return supports (15) of the frame (F), symmetrical and opposite, comprising devices in "L ” (16), while the “L” shaped devices (16) move vertically on the return supports (15), which, for this, the supports are comprised of slots (17), which allow the devices in "L" (16), together with return springs (32), move when the operator pushes said "L" devices (16) through their tabs (18). The “L” shaped devices (16) also have rails (19), which accommodate the frame (F). Thus, the automatic uncapping (MD) return mechanism is configured.
[0026] O mecanismo de retorno automático desoperculador (MD) permite que o caxilho retome em cerca de 15 segundos, de forma automática para as mãos do apicultor, ou em 3 a 5 segundos se o operador puxar o caixilho manualmente. O retomo automático serve de segurança para o caso do apicutor não estar próximo à máquina para retirar o caixilho, fazendo com que ele não permaneça por muito tempo na máquina e se danifique. [0026] The uncapping (MD) automatic return mechanism allows the sash to return in about 15 seconds, automatically to the beekeeper's hands, or in 3 to 5 seconds if the operator pulls the sash manually. The automatic return serves as security in case the beekeeper is not close to the machine to remove the frame, preventing it from remaining in the machine for a long time and being damaged.
[0027] Os trilhos (19) que acomodam o caixilho (F) apresentam furos desencontrados (31 ), ao longo do seu comprimento, permitindo uma regulagem mais exata da altura do caixilho através da peça de regulagem (34) que é fixada ao trilho na altura desejada pelos pinos travantes (35) possibilitando, dessa forma, que o equipamento se adapte a caixilhos de diferentes alturas. [0027] The rails (19) that accommodate the frame (F) have mismatched holes (31) along their length, allowing for adjustment more exact height of the frame through the adjustment piece (34) which is fixed to the rail at the desired height by the locking pins (35), thus allowing the equipment to adapt to frames of different heights.
[0028] A máquina possibilita também o ajuste manual de espaçamento entre os roletes (8), que é feito através de dois ou quatro parafusos travantes que ficam nas suas laterais para travar na distância desejada; esta regulagem serve para ajustar a distância dos roletes de acordo com a profundidade do caixilho a ser desoperculado. [0028] The machine also allows the manual adjustment of the spacing between the rollers (8), which is done through two or four locking screws that are on their sides to lock at the desired distance; this adjustment is used to adjust the distance of the rollers according to the depth of the frame to be uncapped.
[0029] Em especial, o equipamento automatizado (1 ) tem o seguinte funcionamento: o apicultor liga o equipamento automatizado (1 ), acionando os motores elétricos (M1 ), os quais geram força motriz para os roletes (8) dotados de cerdas (8B). Desta forma, os roletes (8), juntamente com as cerdas (8B), atingem “1750” rpm, quase justapostos, criando um canal para a introdução do quadro do favo de mel (F). Assim, o apicultor insere o quadro do favo de mel (F) no mecanismo de retomo automático desoperculador (MD), mais precisamente, em seus trilhos (19) dotados das molas de retomo, ao passo que o apicultor empurra o caixilho (F) juntamente com as abas (18) dos dispositivos em “L” (16), fazendo com que os dispositivos em “L” (16) percorram as fendas (17) dos suportes de retomo (15), ao passo que o fim de curso do mecanismo de retomo automático desoperculador (MD), se dá pelo toque das abas (18) do dispositivo em “L” (16) nos canais de abertura (25) das chapas laterais (11 e 11A). Por seguinte, o mecanismo de retomo automático desoperculador (MD) começa a subir novamente, ainda em processo da extração do opérculo, ou seja, as cerdas (8B) ainda desoperculam os favos de mel do caixilho (F), ao passo que o caixilho (F) retoma para a posição inicial, entre três a cinco segundos, de modo que o apicultor possa retirar o quadro do favo de mel (F) dos trilhos (19) do mecanismo de retomo automático desoperculador (MD) no equipamento automatizado (1 ). [0029] In particular, the automated equipment (1 ) has the following operation: the beekeeper turns on the automated equipment (1 ), activating the electric motors (M1 ), which generate driving force for the rollers (8) equipped with bristles ( 8B). In this way, the rollers (8), together with the bristles (8B), reach “1750” rpm, almost juxtaposed, creating a channel for the introduction of the honeycomb frame (F). Thus, the beekeeper inserts the honeycomb frame (F) into the uncapping automatic return mechanism (MD), more precisely, on its rails (19) equipped with return springs, while the beekeeper pushes the frame (F) together with the tabs (18) of the “L” devices (16), causing the “L” devices (16) to go through the slots (17) of the return supports (15), while the limit switch of the uncapping automatic return (MD) mechanism, it occurs by touching the flaps (18) of the “L” device (16) in the opening channels (25) of the side plates (11 and 11A). Next, the uncapping automatic return mechanism (MD) starts to rise again, still in the process of extracting the cap, that is, the bristles (8B) are still uncapping the honeycombs from the frame (F), while the frame (F) returns to the starting position, within three to five seconds, so that the beekeeper can remove the honeycomb frame (F) from the rails (19) of the automatic return uncapping (MD) mechanism on the automated equipment (1) ).

O equipamento aqui protegido pode também ser adquirido já com a mesa desoperculadora acoplada (Figuras 9 a 13). [0030] The equipment is adjustable in different sizes and brands of uncapping tables through a pulley system located at the bottom of the machine; this system also allows the displacement of the equipment by the entire longitudinal path of a centrifuge table. This interchangeability eliminates the need for the customer to buy a specific type of table to use the machine.
