DETAILED DESCRIPTION

When a component is referred to as "disposed on" another component, it can be directly disposed on the other component or there can be a middle component.

[0038] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the utility model belongs. The terminology used in the description of the utility model herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the utility model. As used herein, the term "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0039] Referring to the accompanying drawings Figures 1 to 3The utility model provides an intelligent beehive with automatic temperature control function, which comprises a beehive body 2, a beehive support 4 located at the bottom of the beehive body 2 and a beehive cover 6 located above the beehive body 2. The beehive body 2 is a square shell structure with an open top, and a plurality of nest frames 202 are arranged at intervals in the interior of the beehive body 2. The beehive support 4 comprises a rectangular hollow frame structure of a bracket and support legs fixedly arranged at the four corner positions of the bottom of the bracket, and the bottom end of the beehive body 2 is embedded in the bracket of the beehive support 4, facilitating the erection and assembly between the beehive body 2 and the beehive support 4. The beehive support 4 makes the whole beehive leave the ground, avoiding the influence of ground moisture, and facilitating ventilation and fixation on the ground. The beehive cover 6 is a rectangular plate structure, and the bottom surface edges of the beehive cover 6 are all provided with vertical extension plates, so that the beehive cover 6 can be buckled on the top opening of the beehive body 2, and the top is relatively sealed to avoid rainwater from seeping into the beehive body 2 through the opening.

[0040] A ventilation adjusting device 1 for adjusting the temperature and humidity in the beehive body 2 is arranged on the back plate 201 of the beehive body 2, which is used to send outdoor air into the interior of the beehive body 2 and can adjust the size of the ventilation opening according to the need to adjust the air inlet size. The conventional beehive ventilation opening is single in position and cannot be adjusted in size, resulting in the accumulation of moisture and heat in the corners or areas far away from the ventilation opening in the beehive, so that the air circulation is not smooth, and it is difficult to keep the temperature and humidity in the beehive uniform and consistent. Especially when the environmental temperature is too high, the local temperature and humidity in the beehive will be too high.

[0041] As shown in Figure 4 The ventilation adjusting device 1 comprises a steering engine 104 fixedly arranged on the back plate 201 and a ventilation pipe 101 rotatably arranged on the back plate 201. A fan 103 is coaxially fixedly arranged in the port of the ventilation pipe 101, at least one air outlet is formed in the pipe wall of the ventilation pipe 101, an air inlet corresponding to the air outlet is formed in the back plate 201, and the steering engine 104 drives the ventilation pipe 101 to rotate to adjust the coincidence degree of the air outlet and the air inlet. Specifically, in the embodiment, the ventilation pipe 101 is a thin-walled cylindrical tube structure, the outer side spoke type protective cover of the fan 103 is fixed in the port of the ventilation pipe 101, and the sending direction of the fan 103 is towards the inner side of the ventilation pipe 101. In this way, outdoor air can be sent into the ventilation pipe 101 by the fan 103, and then sent out through the air outlet and into the beehive body 2 through the air inlet.

[0042] Since the ventilation effect of the ventilation opening is different at different positions, and the ventilation effect is relatively good at the position of about 3 / 4 of the back plate 201 of the beehive body 2 from the bottom of the beehive body, the ventilation opening (the part of the air outlet and the air inlet coincides) is designed at this position in the scheme. When the external air blows into the nest between the nest, it forms an efficient ventilation structure with the nest door, speeds up the air circulation in the beehive, makes the ventilation effect better, and the size of the ventilation opening can be adjusted, further realizing the regulation of the temperature of the beehive. Preferably, an arc-shaped cross-section horizontal groove is formed at the top of the outer wall of the back plate 201, the air inlet is arranged in the horizontal groove, and the outer wall of the ventilation pipe 101 is movably attached to the side surface of the horizontal groove, so that the outer wall of the ventilation pipe 101 and the side surface of the horizontal groove can be kept in a sealed state to avoid air overflowing from the attachment position. At the same time, after the ventilation pipe 101 is rotated by a certain angle, the outer wall of the ventilation pipe 101 can block the air inlet, so that external air cannot enter the beehive body 2. In order to improve the good sealing and relative sliding between the outer wall of the ventilation pipe 101 and the side surface of the horizontal groove, a plastic film is attached to the side surface of the horizontal groove and the outer wall of the ventilation pipe 101. In order to improve the air distribution uniformity of the air sent into the beehive body 2, six air inlets are arranged at equal intervals along the length direction of the horizontal groove in the embodiment, and six air outlets are correspondingly arranged on the ventilation pipe 101.

[0043] As shown in Figure 5 The diameter of the air inlet on the back of the beehive body 2 and the diameter of the ventilation opening on the ventilation pipe are the same in the embodiment, and both are smaller than the vertical groove width of the horizontal groove. In this way, the outer wall of the ventilation pipe 101 is partially embedded in the side surface (horizontal groove) of the beehive body 2. When the air inlet is directly opposite the air outlet, the ventilation opening is in the maximum state (corresponding to the position state of the rotation angle of the ventilation pipe 101 being 0°, the rotation angle is positive in counterclockwise rotation). When the ventilation pipe 101 is rotated by 0° to 60°, the ventilation opening gradually decreases, thereby realizing the control of the size of the ventilation opening. When the air supply power of the fan 103 is fixed, the automatic adjustment of the ventilation volume is realized correspondingly. When the rotation angle of the ventilation pipe 101 exceeds 60° (the maximum rotation angle is 90°), the ventilation opening is completely closed. When the temperature is higher than the temperature suitable for the survival of the bee colony, the microprocessor unit controls the steering gear 104 to rotate to make the effective ventilation area of the ventilation opening larger, and the fan 103 starts to rotate to speed up the circulation of air in the beehive, so as to achieve the purpose of cooling. In winter, the environment temperature is low, and the exchange between the inside and the outside of the beehive needs to be reduced. The microprocessor unit controls the steering gear 104 to rotate the ventilation pipe 101 by 90°, at this time, the air outlet of the ventilation pipe 101 faces the ground, avoids the external weather or foreign matters from entering the ventilation pipe 101, and can also completely close the ventilation opening, thereby preventing cold air from entering the beehive, effectively maintaining the temperature in the beehive, and protecting the bees from the cold weather.

[0044] The rotation and positioning of the ventilation pipe 101 is achieved by the steering engine 104. In this embodiment, the steering engine 104 is fixedly arranged below the middle of the ventilation pipe 101, and the output shaft end of the steering engine 104 is fixedly connected with a gear 105, and a gear structure is arranged on the outer wall of the ventilation pipe 101 (at the middle position) to mesh with the gear 105. In this way, the steering engine 104 can drive the ventilation pipe 101 to move back and forth in the forward and reverse directions through gear transmission, and be fixed at any position within the rotation stroke. Obviously, the gear structure can be arranged at any position in the length direction of the ventilation pipe 101, or independent gears can be used, and half of the ventilation pipe is fixedly connected to the two side end faces of the gears to form an approximate structure.

[0045] To make the rotation of the ventilation pipe 101 smooth, shaft seats 102 are fixedly arranged on the two side plates of the beehive body 2, and the shaft end of the fan 103 is rotatably mounted in the shaft seat 102 through a bearing 107. In this way, when the steering engine 104 drives the ventilation pipe 101 to rotate, the fan 103 rotates synchronously with the ventilation pipe 101. To ensure the concentricity of the two end shafts, preferably, a shaft rod 106 is coaxially arranged in the ventilation pipe 101, and the end of the shaft rod 106 penetrates the center of the fan 103 and is rotatably mounted on the two shaft seats 102 through the bearing 107. A solid partition is arranged at the inner center of the ventilation pipe 101 for inserting and fixing the shaft rod 106, and the gear structure on the outer wall of the ventilation pipe 101 is also arranged outside the solid partition.

[0046] A temperature control device 5 for adjusting the temperature inside the beehive body 2 is arranged at the inner top center of the beehive body 2. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown in the drawings, the temperature control device 5 includes a fixed frame 501, a temperature and humidity sensor 502 fixedly arranged at the center of the fixed frame 501, and heating fins 503 fixedly arranged on the four corners of the fixed frame 501. Specifically, the fixed frame 501 is a rectangular frame, and the fixed frame 501 is fixed (e.g. bound by a rope) vertically on the bottom surface of one of the nest frames 202 located at the middle position inside the beehive body 2. A beam 504 is fixedly connected between the two side frames of the fixed frame 501, and the temperature and humidity sensor 502 is fixedly arranged at the center position of the beam. The four heating fins 503 are fixedly arranged on the inner walls of the four corners of the fixed frame 501. In this way, the temperature and humidity sensor 502 is suspended at the center position of the beehive body 2, and the four heating fins 503 are evenly distributed at the four corners (upper front, upper rear, lower front, and lower rear) of the beehive body 2.

[0047] The temperature field in the beehive is autonomously regulated by the bee colony, and the heat decreases from the center to the outside when the temperature is low, and the bees are evenly distributed when the temperature is high, but the temperature and humidity in the center are always constant. Therefore, the temperature and humidity sensor is placed in the center of the beehive, which can accurately reflect the temperature state, and the heating sheet 503 is arranged close to the center, which can utilize the self-temperature retention mechanism of the bee colony and make the heat evenly diffuse through regulation, thereby reducing the energy waste caused by excessive heating and maintaining the temperature environment required for the survival of the bee colony. Therefore, the temperature and humidity sensor 502 and the heating sheet 503 are placed in the center of the beehive body 2, which can accurately reflect the overall temperature state in the beehive body and make the heat supplied by the heating sheet 503 evenly diffuse to the entire internal space of the beehive body.

[0048] In the embodiment, the temperature and humidity sensor 502 is a DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor, which has a temperature measurement accuracy of ±2℃, a humidity measurement accuracy of ±5%RH, a small size and low power consumption. Since the temperature and humidity sensor 502 is installed at the center of the internal space of the beehive body 2, it realizes temperature and humidity detection at the center of the beehive interior, and its high measurement accuracy makes the detection of the temperature in the beehive more accurate. The heating sheet 503 is composed of a resistance wire and a heat-conducting material, and the four heating sheets 503 are respectively located at the center of the four corners of the internal hollow space of the beehive body 2, which can effectively expand the heating range and facilitate rapid temperature rise in the interior. Because the power factor has a greater influence on the temperature change in the beehive body 2 than the position and time factors, it is important to select the appropriate power to control the temperature within the appropriate range, and the selection of the installation position and the heating time is less important, and the appropriate heating interval is between 10W and 20W. Therefore, the output power of the heating sheet 503 in the utility model is selected to be 15W. When the temperature is lower than the temperature suitable for the survival of the bee colony, the ventilation opening is closed and the fan 103 stops working. If the temperature is still too low, the heating sheet 503 is started to work until the temperature in the beehive body 2 reaches the preset temperature suitable for the survival of the bee colony.

[0049] The top of the beehive cover 6 is provided with a foldable photovoltaic panel cover 3. The top of the beehive cover 6 is provided with an electric control module 303 located in the photovoltaic panel cover 3, and the electric control module 303 is electrically connected with the solar panel 301, the ventilation adjusting device 1 and the temperature control device 5. Figure 8As shown, the photovoltaic panel cover 3 is a quadrangular pyramid structure composed of solar panels 301, the solar panels 301 include two large plates of isosceles trapezoidal shape and four small plates of right trapezoidal shape, the two large plates are oppositely arranged, the two small plates are combined into an isosceles trapezoid, and the two groups are oppositely arranged, the adjacent two solar panels 301 are hinged through the hinges 302, that is, the hinges 302 are arranged between the four side edges of the pyramid and the right angle side edges of the adjacent two small plates, and two hinges 302 are arranged on each side edge, and one hinge 302 is arranged between the two small plates. The bottom four edges of the quadrangular pyramid are respectively overlapped with the top four edge edges of the beehive cover 6, so that the photovoltaic panel cover 3 unfolded as a quadrangular pyramid structure will not automatically deform and fold. Since the top end of the quadrangular pyramid is in an open state, a top cover is arranged at the top end, the top cover can completely cover the top port of the quadrangular pyramid, and a rectangular frame matched with the inner side of the top opening of the quadrangular pyramid is integrally arranged on the bottom surface of the top cover, the rectangular frame is inserted into the top opening of the quadrangular pyramid, and the four side edges of the top opening are constrained, thereby further enhancing the structural stability of the quadrangular pyramid. In this way, in rainy weather, rainwater cannot enter the quadrangular pyramid through the top opening, and in normal weather, leaves, dust and other objects cannot enter the interior of the quadrangular pyramid through the top opening, thereby protecting the electric control module 303 located in the interior. In the case that the light is weak or high-power output is not required, the photovoltaic panel cover 3 can be removed from the beehive cover 6, and the solar panels can be folded to reduce the occupied space, such as Figure 9 As shown; and when the light is strong, it can be unfolded to increase the area of receiving sunlight and provide stable power output. At the same time, in order to prolong the service life of the beehive cover, the quadrangular pyramid design can also protect the beehive cover, reduce the influence of weather on the beehive cover, such as moisture and damage caused by exposure to sunlight, thereby reducing the temperature rise in the beehive caused by direct sunlight or the moisture in the beehive caused by rainwater.

[0050] In the utility model, in order to ensure sufficient energy supply, the photovoltaic panel cover 3 adopts a quadrangular pyramid structure composed of solar panels, so as to improve the laying area, for example, the beehive cover size of a standard medium beehive with a quadrangular pyramid bottom surface width (35cm) and length (51cm), when the vertical height of the quadrangular pyramid is 30cm, the four side solar panels can cover an area of 3827.5cm², and when it is a single inclined roof laying mode, the solar panels can cover an area of 2346cm², which is improved by 63.1% compared with the area of the solar panels that can receive sunlight, and the quadrangular pyramid structure can realize multi-angle light receiving, thereby improving the problem that the previous solar panels receive light in a single direction.

[0051] The electric control module 303 mainly consists of a microprocessor unit and a battery unit. Since the control function of the intelligent beehive mainly involves signal receiving and processing of the temperature and humidity sensor 502, rotation control of the steering engine 104, start-stop control of the fan 103, and start-stop control of the heating sheet 503, the microprocessor unit can adopt a general controller with a TM32F103ZE microprocessor as the core, and the battery unit can adopt a rechargeable lithium battery, which can store solar panels to provide power when there is insufficient sunlight, realizing the self-power supply function of the beehive. At the same time, the solar panels can directly supply power to the microprocessor unit and other functional components through the charging circuit, as shown in Figure 10

[0052] As shown in Figure 11 , the automatic temperature control process of the intelligent beehive is as follows:

[0053] After the system is powered on, the temperature and humidity sensor 502 detects the temperature at the center of the beehive body 2 in real time. If the temperature detected by the temperature and humidity sensor 502 exceeds 35℃, it means that the temperature inside the beehive body 2 is too high and needs to be cooled down. At this time, the microprocessor unit controls the steering engine 104 to work, driving the ventilation pipe 101 to rotate to the initial 0° angle position, i.e., the air outlet is opposite to the air inlet on the beehive body 2, and the ventilation area of the ventilation port is the largest. Then the fan 103 starts to work and the heating sheet 503 stops working. The fan 103 continuously introduces outdoor air into the beehive body 2 until the temperature inside the beehive body 2 does not exceed 35℃, and then the fan 103 stops working. If the temperature detected by the temperature and humidity sensor 502 exceeds between 20℃ and 35℃, which is the temperature range suitable for sealed survival, the ventilation pipe 101 remains at the initial 0° angle position, and the fan 103 and the heating sheet 503 are both in the non-working state. The inside of the beehive body 2 realizes natural air circulation with the external environment through the ventilation port and the ventilation pipe 101. If the temperature detected by the temperature and humidity sensor 502 exceeds below 20℃ but not lower than 5℃, which is a cold temperature range, the heat loss inside the beehive body 2 needs to be reduced. At this time, the microprocessor unit controls the steering engine 104 to work, driving the ventilation pipe 101 to rotate counterclockwise by 30° from the initial 0° angle position, so that the effective ventilation area of the ventilation port is about half of the maximum ventilation area, and at this time the fan 103 and the heating sheet 503 are both in the non-working state. Then the natural air flow between the beehive body 2 and the external environment is reduced, which can reduce the heat loss inside the beehive body 2. If the temperature detected by the temperature and humidity sensor 502 is lower than 5℃, it means that the temperature inside the beehive body 2 is too low and needs to be warmed up. At this time, the microprocessor unit controls the steering engine 104 to work, driving the ventilation pipe 101 to rotate counterclockwise by 60° from the initial 0° angle position, so that the ventilation port is in a closed state, and at this time the fan 103 is in the non-working state, while the heating sheet 503 starts to work to heat the inside of the beehive body 2 until the internal temperature is not lower than 5℃. ​
