The bottom of the mixing box 1 is connected with a conveying hose 5 communicating with the storage cavity 2. The bottom of the conveying hose 5 is connected with an inverted T-shaped feeding pipe 6. Several receiving trays 7 are arranged below the inverted T-shaped feeding pipe 6. A base 8 is provided at the bottom of the lowermost receiving tray 7. The receiving trays 7 are connected to each other and the receiving trays 7 and the base 8 are connected by four fixing rods 9. The inverted T-shaped feeding pipe 6 is fixedly installed in the middle of the top of the topmost receiving tray 7. First storage tanks 10 are opened at the tops of the receiving trays 7. Second storage tanks 11 are opened at the top of the base 8. Inverted L-shaped liquid discharge holes 12 are opened in the upper middle parts of both ends of the first storage tank 10. Inverted L-shaped liquid guiding pipes 13 are fixedly connected to the bottoms of the inverted L-shaped liquid discharge holes 12.

[0018] The top of the mixing box 1 is provided with a feeding port 14, and the top of the feeding port 14 is threadedly connected with a sealing cover 15. The bottom of the mixing box 1 is installed with a connecting pipe 16 communicating with the storage cavity 2. An electromagnetic valve 17 is installed on the upper part of the connecting pipe 16. The upper part of the conveying hose 5 is rotatably connected with a first internally threaded connecting end 18. The lower part of the connecting pipe 16 is provided with a first external threaded section that matches and connects with the first internally threaded connecting end 18. By opening a hole on the beehive cover for the conveying hose 5 to penetrate, the conveying hose 5 can be effectively installed and connected. At the same time, the diameter of the hole is smaller than the diameter of the first internally threaded connecting end 18. By adding water and sugar into the interior of the storage cavity 2 through the feeding port 14 in proportion, and then starting the motor 4 to drive the mixing and stirring shaft 3 to rotate to uniformly mix and stir the raw materials.

[0019] Two L-shaped support plates 19 are symmetrically and fixedly installed at the bottom of the mixing box 1. Through holes 20 are respectively opened in the middle of the lower parts of the two L-shaped support plates 19. Connecting bolts 21 are respectively arranged inside the through holes 20. By opening threaded holes on the beehive cover that match the connecting bolts 21, the mixing box 1 can be stably installed on the beehive, thus effectively ensuring the stability and safety of the device during use.

The controller 26 controls the motor 4 to start and drive the mixing and stirring shaft 3 to rotate and adjust through the control switch 28. And the feed can be automatically added through the liquid level sensor 24 and the controller 26.

[0022] By placing the inverted T-shaped feeding pipe 6, several material receiving trays 7 and a base 8 inside the beehive, and installing the mixing box 1 on the top of the beehive at the same time, the mixing box 1 is connected to the inverted T-shaped feeding pipe 6 through a conveying hose 5; after the raw materials inside the mixing box 1 are evenly mixed, the controller 26 is made to turn on the solenoid valve 17 through the control switch 28, so that the feed inside the mixing box 1 flows into the inside of the inverted T-shaped feeding pipe 6 through the conveying hose 5;

[0023] Then the feed is automatically added into the topmost first storage tank 10 through the feeding hole 23. After the first storage tank 10 at the top is filled with feed, it will flow into the lower first storage tank 10 and the second storage tank 11 through the inverted L-shaped drain hole 12 and the inverted L-shaped liquid guide pipe 13. Finally, when the feed in the second storage tank 11 reaches the highest level, after the liquid level sensor 24 monitors the highest liquid level, it will send a signal to the controller 26 to close the solenoid valve 17, thus stopping the addition of feed; bees can stay around the tops of several material receiving trays 7 and the base 8 to eat the feed inside the first storage tank 10 and the second storage tank 11, and the area where bees suck is large;

[0024] When the feed in the first storage tank 10 and the second storage tank 11 is used up, after the liquid level sensor 24 monitors the lowest liquid level, it will send a signal to the controller 26 to turn on the solenoid valve 17 again to perform the automatic feeding operation.
