Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of artificial beekeeping worker bees, and specifically relates to a device for artificially raising bee worker bees. Background Technology

[0002] Worker bees are found worldwide, with more species found in tropical and subtropical regions. They perform most of the work in a bee colony, including feeding larvae and the queen, cleaning the hive, removing dead bees and debris, compacting pollen, producing honey, building comb, filling gaps with propolis, and guarding the hive. Worker bees are female individuals developed from fertilized eggs in the worker bee cell, but their reproductive organs are not fully developed.

[0003] Worker bees cannot effectively collect nectar in winter, so they need to be artificially fed. Artificial feeding requires feeding equipment, but when using ordinary feeding equipment in winter, the top cover needs to be opened to add honey water, and it is not easy for staff to observe the amount of honey water inside, which reduces the practicality of the equipment. In addition, ordinary feeding equipment cannot quickly remove the dead worker bees inside when staff are using it.

[0004] Therefore, how to provide a device for artificially raising worker bees has become a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those in the field. Utility Model Content

All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, an apparatus for artificially raising worker bees includes a beehive body 1, a beehive cover 2 movably connected to the top of the beehive body 1, a support plate 3 movably connected to one side of the beehive body 1, a sugar storage container 4 movably connected inside the support plate 3, a cover plate 5 movably connected to the top of the sugar storage container 4, and a connecting pipe 6 movably connected to the bottom of the sugar storage container 4.

[0026] A feeding box 7 is movably connected to the inner wall of the beehive body 1, and a mounting plate 8 is movably connected to one side of the feeding box 7. A nut 9 is movably connected to one side of the mounting plate 8. One end of the connecting pipe 6 passes through one side of the beehive body 1 and is movably connected to the bottom of the feeding box 7. The other side of the mounting plate 8 is movably connected to the inner wall of the beehive body 1. This allows the staff to feed the worker bees by adding honey water without opening the beehive body 1 when using the device. Furthermore, by using the principle of communicating vessels, the staff can judge the capacity of the feeding box 7 by the capacity inside the sugar storage pot 4, making it more convenient for the staff to use.

[0027] In this embodiment, the coordinated use of the support plate 3, sugar storage container 4, cover plate 5, connecting pipe 6, feeding box 7, mounting plate 8, nut 9, protrusion 10, and climbing net 11 allows the operator to feed the worker bees without opening the beehive body 1 to add honey water. Furthermore, the principle of communicating vessels allows the operator to determine the capacity of the feeding box 7 by observing the volume inside the sugar storage container 4, making it more convenient and improving the device's practicality. The combined use of protrusion 10 and climbing net 11 provides a standing point for the worker bees while feeding, enhancing their safety and further improving the device's usability.

[0028] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the feeding box 7 is movably connected with protrusions 10 and climbing nets 11. Through the combined use of protrusions 10 and climbing nets 11, the worker bees inside the device have a standing point when feeding, making the worker bees safer when feeding and further improving the practicality of the device when used by staff.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] like Figure 1-5 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, this utility model provides a technical solution in which a slot 12 is provided on one side of the beehive body 1, and a pad 13 is movably connected to the inner bottom of the beehive body 1. An installation block 14 is movably connected to one side of the beehive body 1, and a screw 15 is movably connected to the top of the installation block 14. The top end of the screw 15 passes through the bottom of the installation block 14 and is movably connected to the bottom end of the knob 16.

[0031] The outer wall of the screw 15 is movably connected to a movable block 17, and a baffle 18 is movably connected to one side of the movable block 17. This allows the operator to quickly clean the worker bee corpses when using the device, making the operator more efficient in cleaning the worker bee corpses inside the device. Furthermore, the use of the screw 15 and the knob 16 allows the operator to control the size of the slot 12, making it more convenient for the operator to pick up and replace the pad 13.

[0032] In this embodiment, the coordinated use of the slot 12, pad 13, mounting block 14, screw 15, knob 16, movable block 17, and baffle 18 allows workers to quickly clean the dead worker bees when using the device, making the cleaning of the dead worker bees inside the device more efficient. Furthermore, the use of the screw 15 and knob 16 allows workers to control the size of the slot 12, making it more convenient for workers to pick up and replace the pad 13, thus improving the practicality of the device for workers to use.

[0033] The working principle of this device used for artificially raising worker bees will be explained in detail below.

[0034] When using the device, the staff first installs the sugar storage container 4 and the feeding box 7 into the designated positions using the support plate 3 and mounting plate 8. Then, the staff opens the cover plate 5 and adds honey water into the sugar storage container 4. After entering the sugar storage container 4, the honey water will flow into the feeding box 7 through the connecting pipe 6 due to the principle of communicating vessels. The level of honey water in the feeding box 7 will then be equal to the level of honey water in the sugar storage container 4. In this way, the staff can determine the level of honey water in the feeding box 7 by observing the level of honey water in the sugar storage container 4, without having to open the beehive itself. 1. Add honey water to feed the worker bees. When the worker bees are feeding, they can feed through the protrusions 10 and the climbing net 11, so that the worker bees have a standing point while feeding, making the worker bees safer. After the device has been used for a long time, the worker bee carcasses will fall onto the pad 13. The operator can rotate the screw 15 by the knob 16. When the screw 15 rotates, it will drive the movable block 17 to move. The movable block 17 will drive the baffle 18 to move. In this way, the operator can adjust the size of the slot 12, making it more convenient for the operator to pick up and replace the pad 13.
