Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beekeeping technology, and in particular to an automatic temperature-controlled beekeeping box. Background Technology
[0002] The time it takes for a bee to develop from an egg to an adult is typically about 23 days. The growth process is as follows: After the queen lays the eggs, they hatch into larvae after 3 days; the larvae are fed by worker bees for 6 days, after which the worker bees seal the top of the cells with wax caps; the larvae remain in the sealed cells for about 14 days without eating or drinking, transforming from larvae into pupae, and finally emerging as adult bees. Bees, like everyone else, require a certain amount of oxygen, humidity, and temperature to survive. Generally, oxygen and humidity are suitable for bees, but temperature varies greatly. The ideal temperature for bees to live in the hive is between 4 and 40°C. When the temperature is too low, insulation is necessary; when the temperature is too high, cooling is necessary. Insulation is especially important in winter.
[0003] Currently, beekeeping involves placing bees in boxes and letting them be raised under natural conditions. However, due to weather changes and unsuitable conditions, bees may experience incomplete development, slow or declining reproduction, or even death. This is especially true in winter when temperatures are too low, causing many bees to freeze to death. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a temperature-controlled beekeeping box to provide bees with stable and suitable conditions for development, reproduction, and survival.
[0004] A beekeeping temperature control box disclosed in announcement number CN216627117U includes a box body with a temperature control component movably installed inside. A bee-releasing component is located on the lower side of the box body, and a movable collection plate is slidably connected to the lower side of the box body. First limiting plates are provided on both sides of the movable collection plate, and the first limiting plates are movably connected to the box body. Movable holes are provided on both sides of the box body. This invention uses an air inlet pipe to input warm air into a fan plate. Several guide plates on the fan plate perform a blowing operation to maintain the internal temperature of the device, preventing bees from dying due to large temperature differences between day and night. A carrying plate is fixedly connected to the inner side of two support plates, and a honeycomb plate is slidably connected inside the carrying plate. When the honey inside the honeycomb plate increases, the support plates are compressed by springs and descend. After descending to a certain level, the honeycomb plate can be removed, and the honey can be extracted.
[0005] Although the aforementioned patent achieves the goal of fixing a carrier plate to the inside of two support plates, and slidingly connecting a honeycomb plate inside the carrier plate, so that when the honey inside the honeycomb plate increases, the support plate is compressed by the spring and descends, and after descending to a certain extent, the honeycomb plate can be removed and the honey can be taken out; however, this device does not easily distinguish between the queen bee and other types of bees, making it easier for staff to quickly remove the queen bee, thereby improving the management and efficiency of beekeeping.
[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to invent an automatic temperature-controlled beekeeping box to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a handle is fixedly connected to the surface of the mesh storage box, and an anti-slip sleeve is fitted onto the surface of the handle. The handle serves to pull the mesh storage box.
[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the surface of the sealing cover has two through holes, and the top of the sealing cover has several drainage grooves, which serve to drain rainwater.
[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a base is fixedly connected to the bottom of the box, and a sliding groove is provided inside the base. The base serves to support the box.

[0017] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0018] This utility model provides an automatically temperature-controlled beekeeping box, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] 1. This automatic temperature-controlled beekeeping box, through the setting of the temperature control mechanism, is used when a temperature sensor is installed on the inner wall of the box. The temperature sensor can detect the temperature inside the box. When the temperature inside the box is too low, it will transmit a signal to the temperature controller on one side. The temperature controller will then control the heating mesh on both sides of the inner wall of the box to heat up and increase the temperature inside the box to a suitable value. This ensures that the bees can survive in a suitable environment in cold weather, thereby improving the survival rate of beekeeping.
[0020] 2. This automatic temperature-controlled beekeeping box, through the setting of protective and opening mechanisms, allows for the activation of a hydraulic rod on one side during beekeeping. The hydraulic rod extends and retracts, causing the sealing cap at the end to rotate on the positioning block, thus adjusting the angle of the sealing cap on the top of the box. This allows for appropriate ventilation inside the box according to actual needs. Furthermore, placing the queen bee separately in a mesh storage box and inserting the mesh storage box into the box greatly improves the efficiency of queen bee identification, helping staff to retrieve the queen bee more quickly and accurately, thereby improving the management and efficiency of beekeeping.
