[0002] Traditional pollen removing equipment is a pollen removing ring, which is usually a small circle made of stainless steel wire, and its size is just enough for a bee to pass through. This kind of pollen removing ring is very strict to the bee, and the bee's wings are very easy to be damaged when entering and exiting, and even the bee's legs may be cut off. In addition, the traditional pollen removing ring can only remove the pollen balls on both sides of the bee at the same time, and cannot selectively collect single-side pollen, which is not conducive to representative sampling in environmental research.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a device that can reduce harm to bees and selectively remove pollen to meet the dual needs of commercial and environmental research. SUMMARY

[0010] As a preferred, the pollen removing device further includes a collection box, and the board body and the collection box are connected to form a right angle structure.

[0011] As a preferred, the collection box and the board body are fixedly connected or detachably connected.

[0012] As a preferred, the collection box is provided with a pollen groove for receiving and collecting the fallen pollen balls.

[0013] The utility model discloses according to the different of the setting of the column, the dense bee channel at least includes three kinds: 1. only being equipped with the middle column without the side column in the bottom, and the bee will not lose the powder when entering;2. being equipped with the middle column and single side column in the bottom, and the trunk will pass in the middle column just above when entering, and a hind leg will pass in the crack between the middle column and the side column, and the pollen grain carried on this hind leg will be scraped off by the crack, and realize single side powder loss;3. being equipped with the middle column and double side column in the bottom, and the trunk will pass in the middle column just above when entering, and two hind legs will pass in the crack between the middle column and the side column, and the pollen grain carried on two hind legs will be scraped off by the crack, and realize double side powder loss.

[0014] The utility model discloses the bee channel is designed as semicircle or approximate semicircle, and the width is suitable and slightly larger than the powder loss ring of prior art, can let queen bee pass with difficulty, and let worker bee be controlled but crawl and pass freely, thereby reducing the mechanical damage to the wing and leg part;

[0015] The utility model discloses simple structure, flexible use, convenient installation can satisfy commercial high -efficient collection demand also can be used for scientific research sampling. ACCURACY OF DRAWINGS

[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0023] Figures 1-5 As shown, a honeybee pollen removal device for environmental research includes a plate body 1 and a collection box 2, the plate body 1 is connected with the collection box 2 to form a right angle structure, a semicircular honeybee channel 3 is arranged on the plate body 1, the size of the honeybee channel 3 can make the queen bee pass through with difficulty, and the worker bee can pass through freely by crawling. The size of the honeybee channel 3 ranges from 4.0 mm to 5.3 mm (a, the distance from the top of the middle column to the top of the channel), 4.5 mm to 5.8 mm (c, the width of the channel at the top of the middle column), and 1.0 mm to 2.5 mm (b, the distance between the middle column and the side column). The specific size is adjusted according to the size of the individual bee.

[0024] The bottom of the honeybee channel 3 is provided with three insertion holes 8, including a middle column insertion hole and two side column insertion holes. The middle column 6 and the side column 7 are fixed by inserting the insertion end 10 into the insertion hole 8, which functions to scrape off the pollen carried by the legs of the honeybee. The user can install the middle column 6 and one or both side columns 7 according to needs, to achieve one-sided or double-sided pollen removal, which is flexible and suitable for environmental research or commercial collection. The collection box 2 is provided with a pollen groove 4 for receiving and collecting the pollen that falls off. The collection box 2 is fixedly connected or detachably connected to the plate body 1 below. The honeybee channel 3 is enclosed by a bottom surface 12 and an arc surface 13, and the length of the honeybee channel 3 is moderate, ranging from 0.8 cm to 1 cm, which is convenient for the honeybee to climb through, thereby reducing the damage to the wings and legs of the honeybee.

[0025] In use, the bee barrel 9 is placed on the bottom plate 11, the bee barrel 9 is first aligned with the honeybee channel 3 on the plate body 1, then the steel needle on the plate body 1 of the pollen removal device is inserted into the side wall of the bee barrel 9 to fix the position of the pollen removal device, and of course the pollen removal device can also be fixed by screw connection. Then the middle column 6 or the side column 7 is installed at the bottom of the honeybee channel 3 according to needs. When the bee barrel 9 has multiple honeybee channels, if the plate body 1 of the pollen removal device has only one honeybee channel 3, multiple pollen removal devices that are suitable can be used, which is very flexible. Of course, multiple honeybee channels that are suitable can also be arranged on one plate body 1 of the pollen removal device. For example, when commercial use is required, the operator can install the middle column and the two side columns at the same time, at which time the pollen collection rate can reach 100%, and the pollen collection speed is fast. For example, when environmental detection is required, the operator can install the middle column and the single side column, at which time the pollen collection rate can reach 50%. The operator can also flexibly control the pollen collection rate by mixing the middle column, the middle column plus the single side column, and the middle column plus the double side column, to achieve the desired effect, and the pollen collection rate can be freely adjusted within the range of 0% to 100%.

[0026] Although embodiments of the present application have been shown and described, it is to be understood that various modifications, substitutions, replacements and changes can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present application, and the scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
