Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of using bumblebees in summer, in particular to a device for using bumblebees in summer. Background Art
[0002] Compared to artificial or chemical pollination, bumblebee pollination is more natural and efficient. During their visit to flowers, bumblebees use vibrations to propel pollen into the air, completing pollination. This vibrational pollination method not only significantly improves pollination success rates but also promotes natural fruit development, enhancing the quality and taste of agricultural products. For example, in tomato cultivation, bumblebee-pollinated tomatoes are not only plump and brightly colored, but also have a higher sugar content and a better flavor.
[0003] In the prior art, the bumblebee efficient pollination device proposed in publication number CN221152574U includes an underground light-shielding trapezoidal pit, a pollination beehive, and a beehive support column; the pollination beehive is installed in the underground light-shielding trapezoidal pit via the beehive support column; wherein the underground light-shielding trapezoidal pit has an inclined surface; a ventilation opening is provided on the top of the pollination beehive, and a bumblebee entrance and exit are provided on the side, and the bumblebee entrance and exit are oriented toward the inclined surface and have the same inclination direction as the inclined surface. This bumblebee efficient pollination device rationally utilizes the bumblebee's "phototaxis" characteristic, increases the number of worker bees leaving the hive per unit time, improves the bumblebee emergence rate, and enhances pollination efficiency; utilizes the low temperature and constant temperature characteristics of the underground pit to maintain the activity of the bumblebees, increase the use time of the bee colony, save labor costs, improve the bumblebee pollination efficiency, increase crop yield, improve fruit quality, reduce the rate of deformed fruit, and increase per-acre yield benefits.
[0004] This application places the beehives in a preset lower-shaded trapezoidal pit, thereby utilizing the bumblebee's "phototaxis" characteristic to increase the number of bumblebees leaving the nest. However, in summer, whether outside or in a greenhouse, the beehives where bumblebees live will be exposed to the sun, causing the temperature to rise. The summer temperature in many areas exceeds 32 degrees Celsius, which can easily affect the bumblebee's living environment. In addition, the greenhouse temperature in summer is higher than the outside temperature. In most cases, the internal temperature of the greenhouse exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, which causes the temperature of the beehive to rise accordingly, which can also easily affect the bumblebee's living environment and thus affect the bumblebee's work of leaving the nest for pollination.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] Example:
[0026] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 The utility model discloses a device for using bumblebees in summer, comprising a floor 1 in a shed, a heat-insulating base 2 and a bumblebee hive 3. The heat-insulating base 2 is embedded in the floor 1 in the shed, a placement groove 4 is opened on the top side of the heat-insulating base 2, and the bumblebee hive 3 is placed in the placement groove 4. Temperature control parts 5 are provided on the two wide and long sides of the placement groove 4.
[0027] The temperature control component 5 includes a sponge cover 6, two culvert grooves 7 and two culvert pipes 8. The sponge cover 6 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the placement groove 4, and the top of the sponge cover 6 is open. The two culvert grooves 7 are respectively opened on the two wide and long sides of the sponge cover 6. The insulation base 2 and the ground 1 in the shed are both provided with culvert extension grooves 9 corresponding to the culvert grooves 7. The two culvert pipes 8 are respectively fixedly installed in the two culvert grooves 7, and the ends of the culvert pipes 8 extend into the corresponding culvert extension grooves 9. An auxiliary component 10 is provided on the top of the placement groove 4.
[0028] In this embodiment, when in use, if the temperature in the greenhouse is at the normal living temperature of bumblebees, bumblebees can be used directly for pollination. If the internal temperature of the greenhouse is too high due to sunlight, so that the internal temperature continues to rise, the placement slot 4 can be sealed by the auxiliary part 10. At this time, the culvert pipe 8 is connected to the outside world, and the end connected to the outside world needs to be installed with a dustproof net to prevent the continuous entry of dust. Because the culvert pipe 8 is wrapped by soil, the soil itself has a certain thermal insulation performance. At the same time, the placement slot 4 is sealed, so that the two culvert pipes 8 and the placement slot 4 are connected to form a natural culvert environment, which greatly weakens the influence of the external temperature environment, so that the inside of the culvert maintains a relatively constant temperature environment, which is in line with the living environment of bumblebees, thereby ensuring the survival of bumblebees. After the internal temperature of the greenhouse is reduced to a temperature suitable for the survival of bumblebees, the placement slot 4 can be opened by the auxiliary part 10, so that the bumblebees are always in an environment suitable for survival, avoiding affecting the bumblebees' pollination work.
[0029] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, a protective net 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the culvert pipe 8 close to the placement groove 4, and a rubber layer 12 is coated on the inner wall of the culvert pipe 8.
[0030] In this embodiment, the protective net 11 is provided to prevent bumblebees from flying out of the greenhouse from the culvert pipe 8, thereby affecting the use of the bumblebees. In addition, the adhesive layer 12 is used to stick to ants and pests entering from the outside to avoid threatening the survival of the bumblebees.
[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, the auxiliary component 10 includes a closing stone plate 13 , which is placed on the top side of the heat-insulating base 2 and seals the placement groove 4 .
[0032] In this embodiment, the enclosing stone slab 13 is used to enclose the placement groove 4 so that the placement groove 4 cooperates with the culvert pipe 8 to form a culvert environment, thereby providing a suitable living environment for bumblebees.
[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, a slide groove 14 is provided on one of the wide and long sides of the closed stone slab 13, and a closed stone 15 is slidably connected in the slide groove 14. Slot holes 16 are provided on the top sides of the closed stone 15 and the top sides of the closed stone slab 13. A docking rod 17 is provided between the bottom side walls of the two slot holes 16. The docking rod 17 is fixedly connected to the closed stone 15, and the docking rod 17 is slidably connected to the closed stone slab 13.
[0034] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the opening of the placement slot 4 and avoid directly moving the entire closing stone slab 13, it is closed by the closing stone 15, thereby reducing the fatigue of closing or opening the placement slot 4. The docking rod 17 is directly lifted, and the closing stone 15 is pulled up by the docking rod 17. At the same time, the docking rod 17 is separated from the closing stone slab 13, and then the closing stone 15 is placed on the top side of the closing stone slab 13, thereby leaving an exit for the bumblebees to fly out of the placement slot 4 for pollination.
[0035] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, there is a gap between the two wide and long sides of the bumblebee hive 3 and the two wide and long sides of the sponge cover 6.
[0036] In this embodiment, gaps are left between the two wide and long sides of the sponge cover 6 and the two wide and long sides of the bumblebee box 3, so that when the bumblebees in the bumblebee box 3 fly out, there is enough space for them to fly out of the placement groove 4, thereby facilitating the pollination work of the bumblebees.
[0037] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, cotton pads 18 are connected to the bottom sides of the closing stone plate 13 and the closing stone block 15 .
[0038] In this embodiment, the closed stone 15 and cotton pad 18 are used to block the dust on the closed stone slab 13 and the bottom side of the closed stone 15, thereby affecting the living environment of the bumblebees in the placement groove 4. In addition, the sponge cover 6 is used to cushion the bumblebees when they land or fall. The heat-insulating base 2 is made of concrete, and the culvert pipe 8 is made of liquid concrete to simulate the culvert environment, ensuring that the placement groove 4 is less affected by the external temperature after being closed.
[0039] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present utility model should be included in the scope of protection of the present utility model.
