Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bee breeding technology, specifically to an ecological control box for bee breeding. Background Technology

[0002] Ecological control boxes for bee breeding are beekeeping devices that combine the biological characteristics of bees with regulation technology. These boxes are designed based on the sensitivity of bees to environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, and light. As poikilothermic animals, bees regulate their hive environment by huddling together, fanning themselves, and collecting water. The control box, however, actively intervenes to simulate the optimal conditions of a natural beehive.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN214102795U, entitled "A Beehive," includes a body and a lid. A rotatable main shaft is located in the center of the body, and several vertically distributed honeycomb mesh panels are evenly arranged circumferentially along the main shaft. The sides of the honeycomb mesh panels are connected to the main shaft. The bottom of the main shaft is fixed to the body via a bearing seat. A positioning device connected to the bearing seat is provided on the honeycomb mesh panels. The positioning device includes a limiting block and a pin on the honeycomb mesh panels. One end of the pin connects to the pin hole of the limiting block, and the other end connects to the positioning hole on the bearing seat. The bottom of the body is provided with... An adjustable support foot is provided, which is hinged to the housing. The support foot includes an upper threaded rod, a threaded sleeve, and a lower threaded rod from top to bottom. The upper threaded rod has a forward thread, and the lower threaded rod has a reverse thread. By rotating the threaded sleeve, the upper and lower threaded rods can be extended or retracted simultaneously. Movable support rods are provided on the left and right sides of the bottom of the housing. Each support foot corresponds to one support rod. Several retaining rings are vertically arranged on the outside of the threaded sleeve. The support rod is provided with a hook that connects to the retaining rings. A support claw is provided at the bottom of the lower threaded rod. The support foot can be fixed to the housing after being flipped upward.

[0004] While the aforementioned existing technologies can enable bee reproduction, in practical use, on the one hand, it is difficult to isolate the internal space of the hive. Usually, only a few combs are set inside the hive, resulting in a mixture of different functional areas inside the hive, which reduces the space utilization rate of the hive. On the other hand, the ventilation of the hive is not good enough. The hive usually relies on natural ventilation to exchange air between the outside and the inside of the hive, which prevents the air inside the hive from being discharged in time, thus affecting bee reproduction. Therefore, it does not meet the current needs. In response, we propose an ecological regulation hive for bee reproduction. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an ecological control box for bee breeding, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art of difficulty in dividing the internal space of the box and insufficient air permeability of the box.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an ecological control box for bee breeding, comprising a base, with support rods fixedly installed at the four corners of the lower end of the base, and a box body fixedly installed at the upper end of the base. The upper end of the box body has an open structure, and limiting grooves are provided on the upper part of the inner side walls of the front and rear ends of the box body. The limiting grooves are through-type structures. A partition is provided inside the box body, and a through hole is provided on the upper part of the inner side of the partition. The through hole corresponds to the position of the limiting groove and has a cross-shaped structure. A limiting rod is provided inside the through hole, and the limiting rod slides and limits the through hole. The front and rear ends of the limiting rod extend to the outside of the through hole.

[0007] Preferably, threaded rods are fixedly provided at both the front and rear ends of the limiting rod. The threaded rods extend to the outside of the housing through the limiting groove. Nuts are sleeved on the outside of the threaded rods, and the nuts contact the outer wall of the housing.

[0008] Preferably, the upper end of the box body is provided with a box cover, the lower end of the box cover is in contact with the upper end of the partition, and an air inlet chamber is provided at the center of both sides inside the box cover. The lower end and one side of the air inlet chamber are open structures, and a filter screen is fixedly provided at the lower end and one side inside the air inlet chamber.

[0009] Preferably, a drive motor is fixedly installed on both sides of the upper end of the box cover, the lower end of the output shaft of the drive motor extends into the interior of the air intake chamber, and a fan blade is fixedly installed on the outside of the output shaft of the drive motor.

[0010] Preferably, carbon dioxide sensors are fixedly installed at the front ends of both sides of the outer side of the enclosure, and temperature and humidity sensors are fixedly installed on the outer side of the enclosure at the rear end of the carbon dioxide sensors. The probe structures of both the temperature and humidity sensors and the carbon dioxide sensors extend into the interior of the enclosure.

[0011] Preferably, the box body has three nests inside each side of the partition, the nests are evenly distributed, and the front and rear ends of the upper end of the nests are provided with limiting frames, which are locked and fixed to the nests.

[0012] Preferably, the box body is provided with doors on both sides of the lower part and both sides of the front and rear ends, and the doors are through-type structures.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] (1) This utility model can adjust and fix the position of the partition through the nut and the limiting groove. Before bee breeding, the number of partitions is increased according to actual needs and adjusted to a suitable position. At this time, the operator aligns the partition with the opening of the box and inserts it into the box until the partition is moved to a suitable position. At this time, the through hole on the partition corresponds to the position of the limiting groove. At this time, the operator holds the limiting rod and aligns it with the opening of the through hole and pushes the limiting rod. At this time, the limiting rod passes through the limiting groove and the through hole in sequence until the rear end of the limiting rod extends to the outside of the box. Then the operator puts the nut on the outside of the threaded rod and rotates it so that the nut contacts the outer wall of the box and completes the fixing of the partition, thereby improving the space utilization rate inside the box.

[0015] (2) This utility model can accelerate the entry of outside air into the box by using a drive motor and fan blades. When it is necessary to dehumidify and introduce air into the box, the operator turns on the drive motor, which drives the fan blades to rotate. The fan blades make the air intake chamber in a negative pressure state. At this time, outside air enters the air intake chamber through the opening of the air intake chamber and forms an airflow. The airflow inside the box blows from top to bottom towards the bottom of the box. At the same time, the moisture inside the box is discharged from the box through the box door under the action of the airflow until the detection data falls back to the preset range, thereby improving the suitability of the bee growth environment.

[0016] (3) This utility model can detect the environment inside the box by using a carbon dioxide sensor and a temperature and humidity sensor. When bees are breeding, the probes on the carbon dioxide sensor and the temperature and humidity sensor can detect the environmental information inside the box. If the detected data exceeds the preset range, the operator can turn on the drive motor and perform dehumidification and air intake operations inside the box to avoid bee deaths due to environmental changes.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-4 An embodiment of this utility model provides an ecological control box for bee breeding, including a base 1, with support rods 2 fixedly installed at the four corners of the lower end of the base 1, and a box body 3 fixedly installed at the upper end of the base 1. The upper end of the box body 3 has an open structure, and three honeycomb frames 13 are installed inside the box body 3 on both sides of the partition 15. The honeycomb frames 13 are evenly distributed, and the front and rear ends of the upper end of the honeycomb frames 13 are provided with limiting frames 14, which are snapped and fixed to the honeycomb frames 13. Box doors 10 are provided on both sides of the lower part of the box body 3 and on both sides of the front and rear ends. The box doors 10 have a through structure.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 Limiting grooves 7 are provided on the upper part of the inner side walls of the front and rear ends of the box body 3. The limiting grooves 7 are through-type structures. A partition 15 is provided inside the box body 3. A through hole 16 is provided on the upper part of the partition 15. The through hole 16 corresponds to the limiting groove 7 and is in the shape of a cross. A limiting rod 17 is provided inside the through hole 16. The limiting rod 17 slides and limits the through hole 16. The front and rear ends of the limiting rod 17 extend to the outside of the through hole 16. Threaded rods 8 are fixedly provided on the front and rear ends of the limiting rod 17. The threaded rods 8 extend to the outside of the box body 3 through the limiting grooves 7. Nuts 9 are sleeved on the outside of the threaded rods 8. Nuts 9 contact the outer wall of the box body 3, which facilitates the separation of the internal space of the box body 3 by the partition 15.

[0025] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2The upper end of the housing 3 is provided with a cover 4. The lower end of the cover 4 contacts the upper end of the partition 15. An air inlet chamber 6 is provided at the center of both sides inside the cover 4. The lower end and one side of the air inlet chamber 6 are open structures. A filter screen 19 is fixedly installed at the lower end and one side inside the air inlet chamber 6. A drive motor 5 is fixedly installed on both sides of the upper end of the cover 4. The lower end of the output shaft of the drive motor 5 extends into the interior of the air inlet chamber 6. A fan blade 18 is fixedly installed on the outside of the output shaft of the drive motor 5 to facilitate the air entering the interior of the housing 3 faster through the fan blade 18.

[0026] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 Carbon dioxide sensors 12 are fixedly installed on the front ends of both sides of the outer side of the enclosure 3. Temperature and humidity sensors 11 are fixedly installed on the outer side of the enclosure 3 at the rear end of the carbon dioxide sensors 12. The probe structures of temperature and humidity sensors 11 and carbon dioxide sensors 12 extend into the interior of the enclosure 3, so as to facilitate the detection of the environment inside the enclosure 3 through temperature and humidity sensors 11 and carbon dioxide sensors 12.

[0027] Working principle: In use, first increase the number of partitions 15 according to actual needs and adjust them to the appropriate position. Then, the operator aligns the partitions 15 with the opening of the housing 3 and inserts them into the housing 3 until the partitions 15 are moved to the appropriate position. At this time, the through holes 16 on the partitions 15 correspond to the positions of the limiting grooves 7. Then, the operator holds the limiting rod 17, aligns it with the opening of the through hole 16, and pushes the limiting rod 17. The limiting rod 17 then passes through the limiting grooves 7 and the through holes 16 in sequence until the rear end of the limiting rod 17 extends to the outside of the housing 3. Finally, the operator puts the nut 9 on the outside of the threaded rod 8 and rotates it so that the nut 9 contacts the outer wall of the housing 3. When bees are breeding, the environmental information inside the hive 3 is detected by the probes on the carbon dioxide sensor 12 and the temperature and humidity sensor 11. If the detected data exceeds the preset range, the operator turns on the drive motor 5, which drives the fan blade 18 to rotate. The fan blade 18 makes the air intake chamber 6 under negative pressure. At this time, outside air enters the air intake chamber 6 through the opening of the air intake chamber 6 and forms an airflow. The airflow entering the hive 3 blows from top to bottom towards the bottom of the hive 3. At the same time, the moisture inside the hive 3 is discharged from the hive 3 through the hive door 10 under the action of the airflow until the detected data falls back to the preset range.
