[0020] The present invention provides a temperature-controlled beehive for bee breeding. Figure 1-3 As shown, the temperature-controlled beehive for bee breeding comprises: a beehive 1, wherein a mounting opening is provided at the bottom of the beehive 1, a heating coil 2 is arranged on the beehive 1, a plurality of slots are provided on the inner wall of the beehive 1, and a plurality of slots are provided with nest frames 3 for bees to build nests; a cover body 4 hinged on the beehive 1, and a plurality of through holes for ventilation are provided on both sides of the cover body 4; a box body 5 fixedly mounted on the cover body 4, and a temperature sensor 6 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the box body 5; a support block 7 welded to the beehive 1, and a solar panel 8 is fixedly mounted on one side of the support block 7; a shielding mechanism mounted on the box body 5 for blocking a plurality of through holes; and a cooling mechanism mounted on the beehive 1 for cooling.

[0021] In this embodiment, the temperature-controlled beehive includes a beehive 1, on which a heating coil 2 is provided, which can provide heat when the temperature is too low to keep the temperature inside the beehive 1 stable. A plurality of slots are provided on the inner wall of the beehive 1, on which nest frames 3 are installed for bees to build nests. This design facilitates the replacement and management of the nest frames 3. A cover 4 is hinged on the beehive 1 for easy opening and closing. A plurality of through holes are provided on both sides of the cover 4 for ventilation of the beehive 1 to ensure the normal breathing of the bees. A box 5 is also fixedly installed on the cover 4, and a temperature sensor 6 is installed at the bottom of the box. In order to monitor the temperature inside the beehive 1 in real time and provide data support for the temperature control system, a support block 7 is welded on the beehive 1, and a solar panel 8 is installed on one side of the support block to collect solar energy and convert it into electrical energy to provide power support for the temperature control system. No external power supply is required, which reduces the electricity cost. In addition, a shielding mechanism is also installed on the box body 5 to block part of the through holes when necessary to enhance the thermal insulation effect of the beehive 1. A cooling mechanism is also installed on the beehive 1 to reduce the temperature inside the beehive 1 when the temperature is too high to ensure that the growth and reproduction environment of the bees is in the best state.

[0022] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, the shielding mechanism includes: a motor 9 fixedly mounted on the inner wall at the bottom of the box body 5; a screw sleeve 10 rotatably mounted on the box body 5, the bottom end of the screw sleeve 10 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 9; a screw rod 11 threadedly mounted on the screw sleeve 10; a baffle plate 12 welded on the screw rod 11, and the baffle plate 12 is slidably connected to the cover body 4.

[0023] In this embodiment, the shielding mechanism is used to shield multiple through holes. When in use, the motor 9 is started, and the motor 9 drives the screw sleeve 10 to rotate. When the screw sleeve 10 rotates, the screw 11 moves up and down along its axial direction under the drive of the screw sleeve 10. The baffle 12 welded on the screw 11 is slidably connected to the cover body 4. As the screw 11 moves up and down, the baffle 12 will also slide on the cover body 4, thereby realizing the shielding or opening of some through holes.

[0024] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, the cooling mechanism includes: a heat conducting plate 13 fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the mounting port; a semiconductor refrigeration plate 14 arranged inside the mounting port, the cooling surface of the semiconductor refrigeration plate 14 being fixedly connected to the bottom of the heat conducting plate 13; a plurality of support rods 15 welded to the bottom of the beehive 1; and a fan 16 fixedly mounted on the plurality of support rods 15.

[0025] In this embodiment, the semiconductor refrigeration plate 14 arranged inside the installation port is the core component of the cooling mechanism, and its cooling surface is fixedly connected to the bottom of the heat conducting plate 13. When the semiconductor refrigeration plate 14 is working, the cooling surface will absorb the heat conducted by the heat conducting plate 13 and discharge it through the thermoelectric effect, thereby achieving a cooling effect on the beehive 1. This cooling method does not require the use of refrigerants and has the advantages of being environmentally friendly and pollution-free. In addition, a plurality of support rods 15 are welded to the bottom of the beehive 1 to support and fix the fan 16. The fan 16 is fixedly mounted on the plurality of support rods 15.

[0028] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of limiting rods 18 are fixedly mounted on the top of the cover body 4 , and the plurality of limiting rods 18 are all slidably connected to the baffle 12 .

[0029] In this embodiment, when the motor 9 drives the baffle 12 to slide on the cover body 4, the baffle 12 will move along the multiple limit rods 18. The presence of the multiple limit rods 18 plays a role in guiding and limiting the moving trajectory of the baffle 12, ensuring that the baffle 12 can accurately cover or open the through hole without deviation or shaking.

[0030] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a battery 19 is fixedly mounted on the bottom inner wall of the box body 5, a controller is fixedly mounted on the top inner wall of the box body 5, and the baffle 12 is configured to be U-shaped.

This design enables the temperature-controlled beehive to work normally without an external power supply, thereby improving its flexibility and convenience of use. At the same time, a controller is fixedly installed on the top inner wall of the box 5, which serves as the core control component of the entire temperature-controlled beehive system. The controller can intelligently adjust the working state of the heating coil 2, the semiconductor cooling sheet 14, and the motor 9 in the shielding mechanism according to the temperature data monitored in real time by the temperature sensor 6, thereby realizing precise control of the internal temperature of the beehive 1. This intelligent control method can ensure that the growth and reproduction environment of the bees is in the best state, thereby improving the yield and quality of honey.

[0032] In a further preferred embodiment of the utility model, a plurality of universal wheels are fixedly installed on the bottom of the beehive 1, and a handrail is fixedly installed on one side of the beehive 1.

[0033] In this embodiment, multiple universal wheels and handrails can facilitate personnel to move the temperature-controlled beehive.

[0034] To sum up, compared with the related art, the temperature-controlled beehive for bee breeding provided by the utility model realizes the intelligent adjustment and efficient control of the internal temperature of the beehive 1 as a whole. Through the heating coil 2, the temperature sensor 6, the shielding mechanism, the cooling mechanism and other components, the temperature-controlled beehive can automatically adjust the heating, cooling and ventilation operations according to the temperature data monitored in real time, so as to provide a stable and suitable growth and reproduction environment for the bees. In addition, by installing solar panels 8, batteries 19 and other equipment, a self-sufficient power supply is achieved without the need for an external power supply, thereby reducing the electricity cost and improving the convenience and flexibility of use. At the same time, the universal wheels and armrests installed on the beehive 1 make the movement and transfer of the beehive 1 easier and more efficient, further improving the convenience of breeding operations.
