[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beehive technology, and in particular to a foldable beehive that is easy to transport. Background Technology
[0002] Beehives are the places where bees live and reproduce during beekeeping. They are the most basic beekeeping tools. In order to make it easier for beekeepers to move beehives and save labor, a foldable beehive is used.
[0003] To address this, patent CN221329852U discloses a beehive that is easy to transport, comprising a beehive; a first limiting bolt and a second limiting bolt are threadedly connected at the upper and lower ends of the convex edge; a horizontally movable baffle is slidably installed inside the hive entrance; and liftable supports are installed on both the front and rear sides of the frame; the beehive is designed such that when the supports are needed to elevate the beehive, the first limiting bolt is loosened to release the restriction on the crossbar, and the support is pulled down, then the second limiting bolt is tightened to restrict the crossbar, thus fixing the support, and the supports on both sides unfold to support the beehive; this design, with its built-in supports, facilitates the support of the beehive and makes it easy to place on the ground, offering the advantage of ease of use and meeting the needs of beehive use; the handles provide a convenient grip for users to move the beehive, demonstrating a user-friendly design;
[0004] While the aforementioned beehives, designed for easy handling, are convenient for users to grip and move, their limited applicability stems from the difficulty in disassembling and cleaning them. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a foldable beehive that is easy to transport, in order to solve the problem that existing foldable beehives that are easy to transport are inconvenient to disassemble.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a foldable beehive that is easy to transport, including a beehive frame;
[0007] Both sides of the bottom end of the honeycomb frame are fixed with support bases, both sides of the top end of the honeycomb frame are fixed with fixing plates, the top of each fixing plate is hinged with a movable plate, and one side of each movable plate is provided with a ventilation structure.
[0008] The two ends of the upper part of the honeycomb frame are provided with folding structures, and the top of the folding structures is provided with honeycomb caps.
[0009] The honeycomb frame has a disassembly structure inside. The disassembly structure includes a base plate inside the honeycomb frame. One end of the base plate extends to the outside of the honeycomb frame and is fixed with a baffle. Both ends of one side of the baffle inside the honeycomb frame are provided with slots, and each slot is provided with a locking block.
[0010] When using this device, the detachable structure facilitates cleaning, thereby improving the applicability of the folding beehive; the ventilation structure facilitates ventilation, thereby improving the comfort of using the folding beehive; and the folding structure facilitates transport, thereby improving the convenience of using the folding beehive.
[0011] Preferably, the ventilation structure includes a vent, a movable cover plate, a chute, a slide plate, and a mesh screen. The vent extends through one side of the movable plate, and a mesh screen is fixed to one side of the vent. A chute is provided inside the movable plate at both ends of the mesh screen. A slide plate is provided inside the chute. One side of the slide plate extends to the outside of the movable plate and is fixed with a movable cover plate.
[0012] Preferably, the side view of the slide groove is L-shaped, and the slide plate and the movable plate form a sliding structure through the slide groove. Because the side view of the slide groove is L-shaped, moving the movable cover plate causes the slide plate to move inside the slide groove, allowing control over the opening and closing of the movable cover plate and thus maintaining airflow.
[0013] Preferably, the folding structure includes a vertical plate, a placement groove, a honeycomb plate, a limiting groove, and a limiting plate. The vertical plate is located at both ends above the honeycomb frame. A placement groove is formed on one side of the top of each vertical plate, and honeycomb plates are evenly arranged inside the placement groove. Limiting plates are fixed on both sides of the vertical plate, and limiting grooves are formed inside the movable plates on one side of the limiting plates. When the vertical plate moves the limiting plate to the outside of the limiting groove, the movable plate is pushed, and the movable plate flips over on top of the fixed plate, thereby facilitating folding and transportation.
[0014] Preferably, the bottom ends of the vertical plate and the honeycomb plate are in contact with the top end of the base plate, and the top end of the honeycomb plate is in contact with the bottom end of the honeycomb cap. The limiting plate and the movable plate form a sliding structure through the limiting groove. When the vertical plate moves the limiting plate into the inside of the limiting groove, it prevents the movable plate from shaking randomly, thereby facilitating unfolding.
[0015] Preferably, support plates are fixed to both sides of the base plate, a connecting block is fixed to one side of each locking block, and a handle is fixed to the side of the baffle away from the honeycomb frame. The support plates and movable grooves provide support and guidance, while the locking grooves and locking blocks allow the baffle to be fixed or separated from the honeycomb frame.
[0016] Preferably, the locking block and the honeycomb frame form an engaging structure through locking grooves. One end of the connecting block extends to the outside of the honeycomb frame and is fixedly connected to one side of the baffle. A movable groove is provided inside the honeycomb frame on one side of the support plate, and the support plate and the honeycomb frame form a sliding structure through the movable groove. When the baffle separates from the honeycomb frame, the baffle will move the bottom plate to the outside of the honeycomb frame, facilitating cleaning of the top of the bottom plate.
[0017] The present invention provides a foldable beehive that is easy to transport, and its advantages are as follows:
[0018] With a detachable structure, the support plate and movable groove provide support and positioning guidance. The slot and locking block allow the baffle to be fixed or separated from the honeycomb frame. When the baffle is separated from the honeycomb frame, the baffle will move the bottom plate to the outside of the honeycomb frame, making it easy to clean the top of the bottom plate. This makes the device easy to clean and improves the applicability of the folding beehive.
[0019] By incorporating a ventilation structure and using an "L"-shaped side section of the slide, the movable cover moves the sliding plate within the slide, allowing control over the opening and closing of the cover and maintaining airflow. This facilitates ventilation and improves the comfort of using the folding beehive.
[0020] By incorporating a folding structure, when the vertical plate moves the limiting plate to the outside of the limiting groove, the movable plate is pushed, causing it to flip over on top of the fixed plate, thus facilitating folding and transportation. When the vertical plate moves the limiting plate to the inside of the limiting groove, it prevents the movable plate from wobbling, facilitating unfolding. This design enables the device to be easily transported, thereby improving the convenience of using the folding beehive. Attached Figure Description

[0030] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the side view of the slide 503 is L-shaped. Moving the movable cover 502 will cause the slide plate 504 to move inside the slide 503, which can control the opening and closing size of the movable cover 502, thereby maintaining air circulation.
[0031] Folding structures 6 are provided at both ends of the upper part of the honeycomb frame 1. The folding structure 6 includes a vertical plate 601, a placement groove 602, a honeycomb plate 603, a limiting groove 604, and a limiting plate 605. The vertical plate 601 is provided at both ends of the upper part of the honeycomb frame 1. A placement groove 602 is provided on one side of the top of the vertical plate 601. The honeycomb plate 603 is evenly arranged inside the placement groove 602. The limiting plate 605 is fixed on both sides of the vertical plate 601. The limiting groove 604 is provided inside the movable plate 4 on one side of the limiting plate 605. The bottom ends of the vertical plate 601 and the honeycomb plate 603 are in contact with the top end of the bottom plate 803, respectively. The top end of the honeycomb plate 603 is in contact with the bottom end of the honeycomb cover 7. The limiting plate 605 and the movable plate 4 form a sliding structure through the limiting groove 604.
[0032] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the vertical plate 601 is moved so that the bottom end of the limiting plate 605 abuts against the top end of the limiting groove 604. Pressing the vertical plate 601 will cause the vertical plate 601 to move the limiting plate 605 into the inside of the limiting groove 604, which can prevent the movable plate 4 from shaking at will, thus facilitating unfolding. When the vertical plate 601 moves the limiting plate 605 to the outside of the limiting groove 604, the movable plate 4 is pushed at this time, and the movable plate 4 flips on the top of the fixed plate 3, thus facilitating folding and transportation.
[0033] The top of each folding structure 6 is provided with a honeycomb cover 7. The honeycomb frame 1 is provided with a disassembly structure 8. The disassembly structure 8 includes a base plate 803 located inside the honeycomb frame 1.

One end of the connecting block 806 extends to the outside of the honeycomb frame 1 and is fixedly connected to one side of the baffle 801. One side of the support plate 807 is provided with a movable groove inside the honeycomb frame 1. The support plate 807 and the honeycomb frame 1 form a sliding structure through the movable groove.
[0034] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the handle 802 is moved, and the handle 802 drives the base plate 803 to move through the baffle 801. Pushing the baffle 801 causes the base plate 803 to move the support plate 807 into the interior of the movable slot. At the same time, the baffle 801 will drive the locking block 805 to move into the locking slot 804 through the connecting block 806. At this time, the baffle 801 and the honeycomb frame 1 are fixed to each other. Under the action of the support plate 807, it plays a supporting and positioning guiding role. By pulling the baffle 801 through the handle 802, the baffle 801 and the honeycomb frame 1 are separated. When the baffle 801 and the honeycomb frame 1 are separated, the baffle 801 will drive the base plate 803 to move to the outside of the honeycomb frame 1, which is convenient for cleaning the top of the base plate 803.
