Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture, and in particular to a multi-functional extension and expansion joint for the upper beam of non-standard beekeeping frames. Background Technology
[0002] Beekeeping frames are generally wooden frames provided by bees for building their hives neatly. In fact, frames are the most distinctive design feature of movable-frame beehives. It's important to note that frames must be used with movable-frame beehives. Internationally, the standard frame beam length is generally 488-490 mm, but many beekeepers use non-standard frames with shorter beams (available in various sizes, but all beam lengths are less than 488 mm). In this context, if a beekeeper's frame beam is smaller than the standard beehive's inner diameter, it won't be able to hang properly on the internal frame support and will fall into the hive. If it's larger than the hive's inner diameter, it won't fit into the hive. In existing technology, hive frames are usually made of wood. Therefore, hive frames are customized according to the size of the beehive. When beekeepers use shorter, non-standard hive frames, if they want to place the short frames inside a standard beehive, they need to extend the top beam of the non-standard short frame to any desired size so that it can be hung on the frame steps inside the standard beehive. This utility model uses one or two screws to fix it to the left and right ends of the top beam of the non-standard hive frame, which is quick and easy, and the extension length can be freely adjusted. Ultimately, the total length of the extended top beam is equal to the length of the top beam of the standard hive frame. This completely avoids replacing hive frames and damage to the honeycomb, achieving the effect of quickly moving bees to a new hive. Therefore, a multi-functional extension telescopic device for the top beam of non-standard hive frames for beekeeping is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0003] To overcome the shortcomings mentioned above, this utility model aims to provide a technical solution that can solve the above problems.
[0004] A multi-functional extension and telescopic device for non-standard beehive frame top beams includes an extension piece, a beehive frame connected to the extension piece, and a honeycomb box for vertically placing the beehive frame. One end of each extension piece is horizontally located at the top beam of the beehive frame, and the other end of each extension piece is horizontally mounted at the top of the honeycomb box. The extension piece is movable at the top beam of the beehive frame, so that by moving the distance between the extension piece and the top beam of the beehive frame, the size of the top beam of the beehive frame can be extended, and the size of the top beam of the beehive frame can be extended to any desired target size.

The first sliding groove hole passes through the extension piece and the screw passes through the first sliding groove hole.
[0006] Preferably, a second sliding hole is provided at the connection between the screw and the extension piece, and the second sliding hole is formed on the extension piece. The second sliding hole is located on one side of the first sliding hole, and the second sliding hole passes through the extension piece and the screw passes through the second sliding hole.
[0007] Preferably, a circular hole is provided at the connection between the screw and the extension piece, and the circular hole is formed on the extension piece. The circular hole is located on the other side of the first sliding groove hole, and the circular hole passes through the extension piece and the screw passes through the circular hole.

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0016] Please see Figure 1-6 In this embodiment of the utility model, the multi-functional extension telescopic device for the upper beam of a non-standard beekeeping frame includes an extension piece 3, a bee frame 2 connected to the extension piece 3, and a honeycomb box 1 for vertically placing the bee frame 2. One end of the extension piece 3 is horizontally located at the upper beam of the bee frame 2, and the other end of the extension piece 3 is horizontally mounted at the top of the honeycomb box 1. The extension piece 3 can move at the upper beam of the bee frame 2, so that by moving the distance between the extension piece 3 and the upper beam of the bee frame 2, the size of the upper beam of the bee frame 2 can be extended by the extension piece 3, and the size of the upper beam of the bee frame 2 can be extended to the desired target size or other desired total length data. When the frame 2 is inserted into the honeycomb box 1 and its top beam cannot be horizontally supported at the top of the honeycomb box 1, the extension piece 3 can be adjusted to move out of the position of the top beam of the frame 2. The other end of the extension piece 3 can be horizontally supported on the frame hanging step 4 inside the honeycomb box 1, so that the frame 2 can be vertically supported inside the honeycomb box 1. The extension piece 3 can be added to both sides of the top beam of any non-standard frame 2 to extend the top beam of the non-standard frame 2 to the length of the standard frame 2. It can also be added to the side of the side beam of the frame 2 to extend the side beam indefinitely downwards until it is extended to the required length. It can also be used to fix the outside of other wooden boxes as a fixing iron plate and to connect iron plates.
[0017] A screw 6 is provided between the extension piece 3 and the honeycomb frame 2, and the screw 6 passes through the extension piece 3 and is threadedly connected to the honeycomb frame 2. A first sliding hole 8 is provided at the connection between the screw 6 and the extension piece 3, and the first sliding hole 8 is formed on the extension piece 3. The first sliding hole 8 passes through the extension piece 3 and the screw 6 passes through the first sliding hole 8. When the screw 6 passes through the first sliding hole 8 and the extension piece 3 is placed at the top beam of the honeycomb frame 2, the screw 6 only needs to be tightened or loosened to move the extension piece 3 along the inner diameter of the first sliding hole 8 and move one end of the extension piece 3 relative to the top beam of the honeycomb frame 2 until it is horizontally mounted at the top of the inner side of the honey box 1, so that the honeycomb frame 2 can be suspended inside the honey box 1. Conversely, when the extension piece 3 moves back and aligns with the upper beam of the honeycomb frame 2, simply loosen or tighten the screw 6. The extension piece 3 moves along the inner diameter of the first sliding hole 8, allowing it to move horizontally across one end of the top of the honeycomb box 1 until it moves back and aligns with the upper beam of the honeycomb frame 2. Through the cooperation of the screw 6 and the first sliding hole 8, the honeycomb frame 2 can be supported and suspended when placed inside the honeycomb box 1, which requires a long upper beam for support.
[0018] A second sliding hole 9 is also provided at the connection between the screw 6 and the extension piece 3. The second sliding hole 9 is formed on the extension piece 3. The second sliding hole 9 is located on one side of the first sliding hole 8. The second sliding hole 9 passes through the extension piece 3 and the screw 6 passes through the second sliding hole 9. Therefore, in order to stabilize the position of the extension piece 3 on the upper beam of the honeycomb frame 2, multiple screws 6 can be added. The first screw 6 can be installed at any position of the first sliding hole 8 and the second screw 6 can be installed at the position of the second sliding hole 9. Finally, the extension piece 3 can be stably fixed by the connection and cooperation of multiple screws 6 until the extension piece 3 is adjusted to the total length required by the upper beam of the honeycomb frame 2, so that the honeycomb frame 2 can be suspended inside the honey box 1. The additional screw 6 can pass through the second sliding hole 9 and fix the extension piece 3 to the upper beam of the honeycomb frame 2. This makes it less likely for the extension piece 3 to loosen when it is installed on the upper beam of the honeycomb frame 2, thus improving stability.
[0019] A circular hole 7 is provided at the connection between the screw 6 and the extension piece 3, and the circular hole 7 is formed on the extension piece 3. The circular hole 7 is located on the other side of the first sliding groove hole 8, and the circular hole 7 passes through the extension piece 3 and the screw 6 passes through the circular hole 7. Therefore, when the screw 6 passes through the circular hole 7 and the extension piece 3 is placed on the upper beam of the honeycomb frame 2, the extension piece 3 overlapping the upper beam of the honeycomb frame 2 can be rotated 180 degrees with the screw 6 as the center, so that one end of the extension piece 3 relative to the upper beam of the honeycomb frame 2 is rotated out until it is horizontally mounted at the top of the inner side of the honey box 1, so that the honeycomb frame 2 can be suspended inside the honey box 1. Conversely, when one end of the extension piece 3 relative to the top beam of the honeycomb frame 2 needs to be retracted, simply rotate the end of the extension piece 3 relative to the top beam of the honeycomb frame 2 180 degrees in the opposite direction, using the screw 6 as the center, so that it moves out from the top of the inner side of the honey box 1 and is re-folded and stored on the top beam of the honeycomb frame 2.
[0020] A hanging frame step 4 for supporting the extension piece 3 is provided between the honey box 1 and the honeycomb frame 2. The hanging frame step 4 is formed at the top of the inner side of the honey box 1 and surrounds the top of the inner side of the honey box 1.
[0021] The frame 2 is provided with multiple steel wires 5 for installing artificial honeycomb foundations for bees, and the multiple steel wires 5 are arranged horizontally inside the frame 2.
[0022] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
