Description

本考案は、蜜蜂巣箱で飼育している蜜蜂が分蜂するのを防止する蜜蜂巣門構造に関する。   The present invention relates to a honeycomb gate structure that prevents bees kept in a honeycomb box from separating.

養蜂業では、蜜蜂を巣箱で飼育し蜜蜂が集めた蜂蜜や蜜蝋などを採取して生計しているが、巣箱で飼育する蜜蜂の数は蜂蜜等の量に左右されることから重要な要素となる。蜜蜂の群れには多数の働き蜂と女王蜂とがいるが、女王蜂が卵を産み新しい女王蜂が誕生すると新しい（子の）女王蜂が巣箱に残り、古い（親の）女王蜂は働き蜂の半数程を連れて巣箱から出て行く分蜂が発生する。分蜂は、蜜蜂自身にとっては群数を拡大するための手段であるが、分蜂してしまうと飼育している巣箱内の蜜蜂が大幅に減り、蜂蜜等の収穫量が減ることから、養蜂業者にとっては経済的に打撃を受けてしまう場合が多い。よって養蜂業者は事前に分蜂を防止するためにこまめに監視及び管理する必要がある。従来、例えば、女王蜂が巣箱から遠くに飛べないように予め女王蜂の羽根を切っておくなどの様々な処置が施されていた。しかしながら、新しい女王蜂がいつ生まれたか分からず、人手で多数の巣箱を確認しながら羽根切り等の処置を行う必要があり、労力と時間がかかっていた。さらに、分蜂が起こりうる期間が春から秋ごろまでと長いうえ、分蜂がいつ発生するか確実に分かる方法がなく、長期間に亘り管理する必要があるが、上記のように人手に頼っていることから、大きな労力がかかる割に分蜂防止の確実性が低い問題があった。   In the beekeeping industry, bees are bred in beehives, and honey and beeswax collected by bees are collected for livelihood.However, the number of bees bred in beehives depends on the amount of honey and other factors, Become. There are many working bees and queen bees in the swarm of bees, but when a queen bee lays eggs and a new queen bee is born, the new (child) queen bee remains in the nest box, and the old (parent) queen bee brings about half of the worker bees. A bee is generated as it goes out of the hive. Bee splitting is a means for expanding the number of bees for bees themselves, but when they are split, the number of bees in the nest box is greatly reduced and the yield of honey etc. is reduced. For traders, they are often hit hard. Therefore, beekeepers need to be frequently monitored and managed in advance to prevent bee splitting. Conventionally, for example, various treatments such as cutting the queen bee feathers in advance so that the queen bee cannot fly far from the nest box have been performed. However, it was difficult to know when the new queen bee was born, and it was necessary to carry out treatments such as feather cutting while manually checking a large number of nest boxes, which required labor and time. Furthermore, the period during which honeybees can occur is long from spring to autumn, and there is no way to know when the honeybees will occur. It is necessary to manage them over a long period of time. For this reason, there is a problem that the certainty of prevention of bee separation is low for a large amount of labor.

例えば、特許文献１には、ミツバチの分蜂の発生を検知して分蜂したミツバチを回収するためのミツバチ分蜂検知システムが開示されている。特許文献１のミツバチ分蜂検知システムは、略閉鎖された内部空間にミツバチが巣板を形成する巣板形成領域と、ミツバチの出入り口である巣門とを少なくとも備えたミツバチ巣を有し、ミツバチの密集形成を検出する密集ミツバチ検出手段が前記巣門近傍に設置されている。密集ミツバチ検出手段は、光センサー、通過センサー又は温度センサーなどでミツバチの密集形成を検知して分蜂の発生の兆候を検知しようとするものであった。   For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a bee splitting detection system for detecting the occurrence of a split bee in a bee and collecting the split bee. The bee splitting detection system of Patent Document 1 has a bee nest having at least a nest plate forming region in which a bee forms a nest plate and a nest gate which is an entrance of the bee in a substantially closed internal space. A dense bee detecting means for detecting the formation of the dense is installed near the nest gate. The dense bee detection means detects a sign of occurrence of a bee by detecting the formation of a dense bee with a light sensor, a passage sensor, or a temperature sensor.

特開２０１４−６８６０６号公報JP 2014-68606 A

しかしながら、特許文献１のミツバチ分蜂検知システムは、光センサーや温度センサー等の電気電子機器を使用するものであるから、構造が複雑で製造コスト及び運用コストも高くつくうえ、巣箱自体を大きく改修する必要があり、手軽で安価な導入が困難であった。特に、特許文献１の技術は、ミツバチの分蜂発生の兆候を検知するものであり、分蜂の発生自体を防止しようとするものではないことから、検知した後に結局は人手で蜜蜂の回収作業等を行う必要があり、分蜂を確実には防止できないものであった。   However, the bee honeybee detection system of Patent Document 1 uses electrical and electronic equipment such as an optical sensor and a temperature sensor, so that the structure is complicated and the manufacturing cost and operation cost are high, and the nest box itself is greatly modified. Therefore, it was difficult to introduce it easily and inexpensively. In particular, the technique of Patent Document 1 detects signs of bee splitting in bees and does not attempt to prevent the occurrence of splitting of bees. Etc., and it was not possible to prevent the splitting of bees reliably.

本考案は上記従来の課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、その一つの目的は、確実に分蜂を防止できるとともに、構造が簡単で低コストで製造できる蜜蜂巣門構造を提供することにある。   The present invention has been made in view of the above-described conventional problems, and one object of the present invention is to provide a honeycomb structure that can reliably prevent splitting of bees and can be manufactured at a low cost with a simple structure. .

上記課題を解決するために本考案は、蜜蜂巣を収容する巣室２２を有する蜜蜂巣箱１２から蜂が出入りする巣門の構造であり、女王蜂（Ｂ１）も働き蜂（Ｂ２）も自在に通過できる大きさの第１開口１４を有する巣箱の第１開口壁１６と、第１開口壁１４の前部にあって第１開口１４を覆うように配置され第１開口１４に連通し働き蜂（Ｂ２）が自在に箱内外を通過できる大きさでかつ女王蜂（Ｂ１）が通過できない大きさの第２開口１８を有する前部室箱２０と、を含むことを特徴とする蜜蜂巣門構造１０から構成される。   In order to solve the above problems, the present invention is a structure of a nest that allows a bee to enter and exit from a honeycomb box 12 having a nest chamber 22 that accommodates a honeycomb, and a queen bee (B1) and a worker bee (B2) can pass freely. A first opening wall 16 of a nest box having a first opening 14 of a size, and a bee (B2) that is arranged in front of the first opening wall 14 so as to cover the first opening 14 and communicates with the first opening 14 And a front chamber box 20 having a second opening 18 sized to freely pass through the inside and outside of the box and through which the queen bee (B1) cannot pass. .

また、第２開口１８は、外部ＥＸと前部室箱内部（３０）とを連通する複数の孔（４６）を有することとしてもよい。   Moreover, the 2nd opening 18 is good also as having several holes (46) which connect external EX and the front chamber box inside (30).

また、第２開口１８は、横長のスリット孔４６を含むこととしてもよい。   The second opening 18 may include a horizontally long slit hole 46.

また、第２開口１８は、開閉自在に設けられていることとしてもよい。   Moreover, the 2nd opening 18 is good also as being provided so that opening and closing is possible.

本考案の蜜蜂巣門構造によれば、蜜蜂巣を収容する巣室を有する蜜蜂巣箱から蜂が出入りする巣門の構造であり、女王蜂も働き蜂も自在に通過できる大きさの第１開口を有する巣箱の第１開口壁と、第１開口壁の前部にあって第１開口を覆うように配置され第１開口に連通し働き蜂が自在に箱内外を通過できる大きさでかつ女王蜂が通過できない大きさの第２開口を有する前部室箱と、を含む構成であるから、前部室箱の第２開口により女王蜂が外部に出ることが規制されるので、分蜂を確実に防止することができる。さらに、構造が簡単であり低コストで製造できる。特に、第２開口を有する前部室箱を製造し、既設の蜂蜜巣箱に取り付けるだけで簡単に分蜂を防止できる巣門構造を構築することができる。   According to the honeycomb structure of the present invention, it is a structure of a nest that allows a bee to enter and exit from a honeycomb box having a nest chamber that accommodates a honeycomb, and has a first opening that allows a queen bee and a worker bee to pass freely. The first opening wall of the nest box and the front opening of the first opening wall are arranged so as to cover the first opening, communicated with the first opening, and have a size that allows the bees to freely pass inside and outside the box and the queen bee cannot pass. And the front chamber box having the second opening of the size, the second opening of the front chamber box restricts the queen bee from going outside, so that it is possible to reliably prevent the split bee. . Furthermore, the structure is simple and can be manufactured at low cost. In particular, the front chamber box having the second opening can be manufactured, and a nest structure that can easily prevent splitting of the bee can be constructed simply by attaching it to an existing honey box.

また、第２開口は、外部と前部室箱内部とを連通する複数の孔を有する構成とすることにより、働き蜂が通過でき女王蜂が通過できない孔を複数設けることによって多数の働き蜂が同時に出入りすることができる結果、蜜蜂等の集蜜力を低下させることなく、効率良く蜂蜜等を収穫できる。   In addition, the second opening has a plurality of holes communicating with the outside and the inside of the front chamber box, so that a large number of working bees can enter and exit at the same time by providing a plurality of holes through which the working bees can pass and the queen bees cannot pass As a result, honey and the like can be efficiently harvested without reducing the honey collecting power of bees and the like.

また、第２開口は、横長のスリット孔を含む構成とすることにより、スリット孔の高さを調整することで働き蜂が通過できるとともに、女王蜂が通過できない孔を簡単な構造で実現できるとともに、横長構造であるので多数の働き蜂が同時に出入りすることができる結果、分蜂防止を確実に行いながら、蜜蜂等の集蜜力を低下させることなく効率良く蜂蜜等を収穫できる。   In addition, the second opening has a configuration including a horizontally long slit hole, and by adjusting the height of the slit hole, a worker bee can pass and a hole through which the queen bee cannot pass can be realized with a simple structure. As a result of the structure, a large number of worker bees can enter and exit at the same time. As a result, it is possible to efficiently harvest honey and the like without deteriorating the concentration of honey such as bees while reliably preventing bees.

また、第２開口は、開閉自在に設けられる構成とすることにより、必要に応じて第２開口を簡単に開閉することができる。例えば夜間や巣箱を移動する場合等で働き蜂を巣箱内に収容管理しておく際に、前部室箱を取り付けたままの状態で第２開口を閉鎖して働き蜂が出入りできないようにすることができる。   Moreover, the second opening can be easily opened and closed as necessary by adopting a configuration in which the second opening is provided to be freely opened and closed. For example, when the worker bees are accommodated and managed in the nest box at night or when moving the hive, the second opening can be closed with the front chamber box attached to prevent the worker bees from entering and exiting. .

以下、添付図面を参照しつつ本考案の蜜蜂巣門構造の実施の形態について説明する。本考案の蜜蜂巣門構造は、例えば、飼育している蜜蜂巣箱から蜜蜂が分蜂するのを防止するのに好適な働き蜂の出入り口構造である。図１ないし図５は、本考案の蜜蜂巣門構造の一実施形態を示している。図１、図２、図３に示すように、本実施形態において、蜜蜂巣門構造１０は、蜜蜂巣箱１２から蜜蜂が出入りする巣門の構造である。蜜蜂巣門構造１０は、第１開口１４が設けられた巣箱１２の第１開口壁１６と、第２開口１８を有する前部室箱２０と、を備えている。なお、図１、図２では、巣箱１２の要部部分を示し、その他の部分を省略している。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the honeycomb gate structure of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. The honeycomb gate structure of the present invention is a doorway structure for working bees suitable for preventing, for example, the bees from separating from a honeycomb box being bred. 1 to 5 show an embodiment of the honeycomb structure of the present invention. As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 3, in this embodiment, the honeycomb structure 10 is a structure of a nest that allows the honeycomb to enter and exit from the honeycomb box 12. The honeycomb structure 10 includes a first opening wall 16 of a hive box 12 provided with a first opening 14 and a front chamber box 20 having a second opening 18. In FIGS. 1 and 2, the main part of the nest box 12 is shown and the other parts are omitted.

図１、図２に示すように、本実施形態では、蜜蜂巣箱１２は、例えば、従来周知の巣箱であり、内部に蜂蜜巣を収容する巣室２２を有する矩形箱状体からなる。蜜蜂巣箱１２は、例えば、木製で底壁２４と四周を囲む側壁２６を有し、上面側が着脱自在な蓋２８で閉鎖されており、内部空間を巣室２２としている。巣室２２には、図示していないが、例えば、蜂の巣となり蜜蜂や蜜蝋等を貯める複数の巣板が板面を立てて平行状に並べて配置される。図２では、内部が連通する２段の巣箱を重ねて設置され上層側の巣箱１２２の上端面に蓋装着されて閉鎖されているが、巣箱を１段又は３段以上の複数段重ねていてもよい。   As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, in this embodiment, the honeycomb box 12 is, for example, a conventionally known nest box, and is formed of a rectangular box-like body having a nest chamber 22 that accommodates the honeycomb. The honeycomb box 12 has, for example, a wooden side wall 26 and a side wall 26 that surrounds the four circumferences. The top surface is closed by a detachable lid 28, and the internal space is a nest chamber 22. In the nest chamber 22, although not shown, for example, a plurality of nest plates that serve as beehives and store bees, beeswax, and the like are arranged side by side in parallel with the plate surfaces upright. In FIG. 2, two-stage nest boxes that communicate with each other are stacked and closed on the upper end surface of the upper nest box 122, but the nest boxes are stacked in one or more stages. Also good.

下層側の巣箱１２の１つの側壁２６は、蜜蜂が出入りするための第１開口１４が設けられており、第１開口壁１６を構成している。第１開口１４は、従来周知の巣箱１２に設けられた巣門であり、例えば、働き蜂Ｂ２も女王蜂Ｂ１も自在に通過できる大きさで形成される。なお、従来の巣箱１２の巣門は、一般的にスズメバチ等の他の害虫や害獣が通過できないような大きさで形成されている。本実施形態では、第１開口１４は、働き蜂の巣箱１２からの出入りをある程度効率的に行わせるために横長略台形状のスリット状に設けられている。例えば、蜜蜂の種類がセイヨウミツバチの場合には、第１開口１４の高さ幅Ｈ１が、約６〜７ｍｍ程度に設定されている。第１開口１４の高さは飼育する蜜蜂の種類に応じて設定されるとよい。なお、図２上、２９は、従来周知の巣箱１２に設けられた第１開口１４を開閉する落とし戸式の開閉板であり、図示しないロック装置を介して上方に上げられた位置で保持されている。開閉板２９は、前部室箱２０が取り付けられていない状態で第１開口１４を開閉する。   One side wall 26 of the lower nest box 12 is provided with a first opening 14 for a bee to enter and exit, and constitutes a first opening wall 16. The first opening 14 is a nest gate provided in the conventionally known nest box 12, and is formed in a size that allows the worker bee B2 and the queen bee B1 to pass freely. In addition, the nest gate of the conventional nest box 12 is generally formed in such a size that other pests and pests such as wasps cannot pass through. In the present embodiment, the first opening 14 is provided in the shape of a horizontally elongated substantially trapezoidal slit so that the worker honeycomb box 12 can be moved in and out to some extent efficiently. For example, when the bee type is honeybee, the height width H1 of the first opening 14 is set to about 6 to 7 mm. The height of the first opening 14 may be set according to the type of bees to be bred. 2, 29 is a trapdoor type opening / closing plate that opens and closes the first opening 14 provided in the conventionally known nest box 12, and is held at a position raised upward via a locking device (not shown). ing. The opening / closing plate 29 opens and closes the first opening 14 in a state where the front chamber box 20 is not attached.

図１、図２に示すように、前部室箱２０は、内部が中空で所定の大きさの室内空間３０を有しており、第１開口１４が設けられた第１開口壁１６の前部にあって、第１開口１４を覆うように配置される。前部室箱２０は、第１開口１４に連通するとともに、外部ＥＸと室内空間３０とを連通した第２開口１８を有している。本実施形態では、前部室箱２０は、例えば、巣箱１２とは別体で設けられており、第１開口壁１６の外面側に外付けで固定されている。具体的には、図３、図４、図５にも示すように、前部室箱２０は、例えば、第１開口壁１６に臨む面側が開口３２された横長矩形枠状の中空箱からなり、第１開口１４を覆うように第１開口より大きく形成されている。前部室箱２０は、第１開口１４の前部に対向配置される横長矩形状の輪郭の前面部３４と、該前面部３４の四辺に後方側（第１開口壁側）に向けて一体的に突設した上壁部３６と下壁部３８と右壁部４０と左壁部４２とを有し、４つの壁部３６〜４２に囲まれた内部に室内空間３０を形成している。前部室箱２０は、例えば、複数（図上では４つ）の取付用孔４４が穿孔されており、釘やネジ等を介して巣箱の第１開口壁１６の外面に固定される。前部室箱２０は、第１開口壁１６にあてがわれて固定されると、室内空間３０が第１開口１４と連通するとともに、上下左右の壁部３６〜４２により室内空間３０が外部から閉鎖され、前面部３４に設けられた第２開口１８を介して外部と連通される。すなわち、第２開口１８が設けられた前面部３４を第１開口１４からある程度離隔させた位置に設置させ、働き蜂Ｂ２が自在に移動できる室内空間３０を確保している。本実施形態では、室内空間３０の前後幅すなわち第１開口１４と第２開口１８との離隔幅は、例えば、１５ｍｍ程度に設定されている。第１開口１４と第２開口１８との離隔幅は、働き蜂の出入り通過効率を考慮して、１０ｍｍ以上に設定されるとよい。   As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the front chamber box 20 has an interior space 30 that is hollow and has a predetermined size, and a front portion of the first opening wall 16 in which the first opening 14 is provided. Therefore, the first opening 14 is disposed so as to cover the first opening 14. The front chamber box 20 communicates with the first opening 14 and has a second opening 18 that communicates the external EX with the indoor space 30. In the present embodiment, the front chamber box 20 is provided separately from the nest box 12, for example, and is externally fixed to the outer surface side of the first opening wall 16. Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 3, 4, and 5, the front chamber box 20 is, for example, a horizontally long rectangular frame-shaped hollow box having an opening 32 on the side facing the first opening wall 16. It is formed larger than the first opening so as to cover the first opening 14. The front chamber box 20 is integrated with the front part 34 having a horizontally long rectangular shape opposed to the front part of the first opening 14 and the four sides of the front part 34 toward the rear side (first opening wall side). The upper wall portion 36, the lower wall portion 38, the right wall portion 40, and the left wall portion 42 are provided so as to project in the interior, and the indoor space 30 is formed in the interior surrounded by the four wall portions 36 to 42. The front chamber box 20 has, for example, a plurality of (four in the drawing) mounting holes 44 drilled therein, and is fixed to the outer surface of the first opening wall 16 of the nest box through nails, screws, or the like. When the front chamber box 20 is fixed to the first opening wall 16, the indoor space 30 communicates with the first opening 14, and the indoor space 30 is closed from the outside by the upper, lower, left, and right wall portions 36 to 42. And communicated with the outside through the second opening 18 provided in the front surface portion 34. That is, the front portion 34 provided with the second opening 18 is installed at a position spaced apart from the first opening 14 to some extent, and the indoor space 30 in which the worker bee B2 can freely move is secured. In the present embodiment, the front-rear width of the indoor space 30, that is, the separation width between the first opening 14 and the second opening 18, is set to about 15 mm, for example. The separation width between the first opening 14 and the second opening 18 is preferably set to 10 mm or more in consideration of the efficiency of entering and exiting the worker bees.

第２開口１８は、前部室箱２０において外部と連通した蜂の出入り用開口であり、働き蜂Ｂ２が自在に箱内外を通過できる大きさでかつ女王蜂Ｂ１が通過できない大きさで形成されている。すなわち、第２開口１８は、女王蜂Ｂ１が外部に出ていくのを防止する規制手段であり、女王蜂が外部に出ていくことにより発生する分蜂を確実に防止することができる。例えば、既設の巣箱１２の巣門すなわち第１開口１４の高さ幅Ｈ１を狭くして、働き蜂が自在に箱内外を通過できる大きさでかつ女王蜂が通過できない大きさとすると、分蜂は防止できるが、通路開口が狭くなることから多数の働き蜂が出入りしにくくなることから、集蜜効率が低下する。本実施形態のように、前部室箱２０では、働き蜂が自在に通過できる大きさでかつ女王蜂が通過できない大きさの第２開口１８を第１開口から離隔した位置に配置し、室内空間３０を介して連通させた構成としたことで、女王蜂の通過を抑制できる構造でありながら、多数の働き蜂の出入りをスムーズに行わせ集蜜効率を高く維持することができる。本実施形態では、第２開口１８は、例えば、複数の横長のスリット孔４６からなる。スリット孔４６は、前部室箱２０の前面部３４に格子状の枠体４８により、縦横にマトリクス状に並列して開口されている。枠体４８は、例えば、複数の細長棒状の枠部材を縦横に組み付けて設けられており、細長棒状枠部材どうしの間に前後方向に連通した横長スリット孔４６が形成されている。スリット孔４６は、該スリット孔の高さ幅Ｈ２を所定の間隙で設定することにより、働き蜂が自在に通過できるとともに女王蜂が通過できないようになっている。例えば、蜜蜂の種類がセイヨウミツバチの場合にはスリット孔の高さ幅Ｈ２がそれぞれ約４ｍｍ程度に設定される。なお、蜜蜂の種類に応じてスリット孔の高さは任意に設定するとよい。なお、第２開口１８は、スリット孔に限らず、例えば、丸孔や角孔等、働き蜂を通過させるとともに女王蜂を通過させない大きさの孔であれば任意の形状でもよい。本実施形態では、例えば、前部室箱２０は枠体４８を含めて全体的にプラスチック等の硬質合成樹脂で一体的に成形されている。なお、枠体４８部分を別部材で設け前部室箱２０本体に固定的又は開閉自在に組み付けて構成してもよい。   The second opening 18 is an opening for entering and exiting a bee that communicates with the outside in the front chamber box 20, and is formed with a size that allows the worker bee B2 to freely pass inside and outside the box and a size that prevents the queen bee B1 from passing therethrough. That is, the 2nd opening 18 is a control means which prevents that the queen bee B1 goes outside, and can prevent the bee which generate | occur | produces when a queen bee goes out outside reliably. For example, if the height H1 of the existing nest box 12, that is, the first opening 14 is narrowed so that the worker bees can pass freely inside and outside the box and the queen bees cannot pass, the bees can be prevented. However, since the passage opening becomes narrow, it becomes difficult for a large number of worker bees to enter and exit. As in the present embodiment, in the front chamber box 20, the second opening 18, which is a size that allows a worker bee to pass freely and a size that a queen bee cannot pass, is disposed at a position separated from the first opening, and the indoor space 30 is By adopting a configuration in which the honeybees are communicated with each other, it is possible to maintain a high concentration efficiency by smoothly moving a large number of worker bees in and out while having a structure capable of suppressing the passage of the queen bee. In the present embodiment, the second opening 18 includes, for example, a plurality of horizontally long slit holes 46. The slit holes 46 are opened in parallel in a matrix in the vertical and horizontal directions on the front surface 34 of the front chamber box 20 by a lattice frame 48. For example, the frame 48 is provided by assembling a plurality of elongated rod-like frame members vertically and horizontally, and a horizontally elongated slit 46 is formed between the elongated rod-shaped frame members in the front-rear direction. The slit hole 46 is configured such that a worker bee can pass freely and a queen bee cannot pass by setting the height width H2 of the slit hole with a predetermined gap. For example, when the bee type is honeybee, the height H2 of the slit holes is set to about 4 mm. Note that the height of the slit hole may be arbitrarily set according to the type of bees. The second opening 18 is not limited to a slit hole, and may be any shape as long as it is a hole having a size that allows a worker bee to pass therethrough and does not allow a queen bee to pass, such as a round hole or a square hole. In the present embodiment, for example, the front chamber box 20 including the frame body 48 is integrally formed of a hard synthetic resin such as plastic as a whole. In addition, the frame body 48 portion may be provided as a separate member and fixed to the front chamber box 20 main body so as to be fixed or freely openable.

次に本考案の蜜蜂巣門構造の作用について説明する。例えば、第２開口１８を設けて製造した前部室箱２０を用意し、既設の蜜蜂巣箱１２の巣門を第１開口１４とし該巣門が設けられた側壁２６を第１開口壁１６として、第１開口１４を覆うように前部室箱２０を固定する。通常は、巣箱１２の第１開口１４及び前部室箱２０の第２開口１８を介して働き蜂Ｂ２が自在に出入りして蜂蜜や蜜蝋等を採取することができる。この際、前部室箱２０の室内空間３０が確保されて、複数のスリット孔４６から多数の働き蜂が出入りできるので、集蜜効率を低下させることがない。女王蜂Ｂ１が卵を生み、新しい女王蜂が誕生した際には、古い女王蜂Ｂ１は巣箱１２から外部に出て行こうとするが、第１開口１４を通過しても、第２開口１８により該女王蜂Ｂ１が外部に出るのが規制される。その結果、管理者がこまめに監視しなくても確実に分蜂の発生を防止しながら、効率良く養蜂することができる。   Next, the operation of the honeycomb gate structure of the present invention will be described. For example, the front chamber box 20 manufactured by providing the second opening 18 is prepared, the nest of the existing honeycomb box 12 is the first opening 14, and the side wall 26 provided with the nest is the first opening wall 16. The front chamber box 20 is fixed so as to cover the first opening 14. Normally, the worker bee B2 can freely enter and exit through the first opening 14 of the nest box 12 and the second opening 18 of the front chamber box 20 to collect honey, beeswax, and the like. At this time, since the indoor space 30 of the front chamber box 20 is secured and a large number of worker bees can enter and exit from the plurality of slit holes 46, the efficiency of collecting honey is not lowered. When the queen bee B1 lays eggs and a new queen bee is born, the old queen bee B1 tries to go out of the nest box 12, but even if it passes through the first opening 14, the queen bee is caused by the second opening 18. B1 is restricted from going outside. As a result, even if the manager does not monitor frequently, beekeeping can be efficiently carried out while reliably preventing the occurrence of splitting.

なお、図６に示すように、前部室箱２０の第２開口１８を開閉できる構造としてもよい。図６では、例えば、前部室箱２０の前面部の複数のスリット孔を同時に開閉する開閉板５０を有している。開閉板５０は、例えば、前部室箱の前面部３４に突設されたレール部５２を介してスライド自在に設けられており、必要に応じて開閉板５０を手でスライドさせて第２開口１８を開閉する。なお、第２開口を開閉する構成は、例えば、開き戸式や落とし戸式、多数の孔が設けられた２枚の板を互いに摺動して開閉する構造等、その他任意の構成でもよい。また、前部室箱２０を取り付けた状態で第１開口１４を開閉できる構造を設けることとしてもよい。   In addition, as shown in FIG. 6, it is good also as a structure which can open and close the 2nd opening 18 of the front chamber box 20. As shown in FIG. In FIG. 6, for example, an opening / closing plate 50 that simultaneously opens and closes a plurality of slit holes in the front portion of the front chamber box 20 is provided. The opening / closing plate 50 is slidably provided, for example, via a rail portion 52 projecting from the front portion 34 of the front chamber box, and the opening / closing plate 50 is slid by hand as necessary to provide the second opening 18. Open and close. The configuration for opening and closing the second opening may be any other configuration such as, for example, a hinged door type, a trap door type, or a structure in which two plates provided with a plurality of holes are slid and opened and closed. Moreover, it is good also as providing the structure which can open and close the 1st opening 14 in the state which attached the front chamber box 20. FIG.

以上説明した本考案の蜜蜂巣門構造は、上記した実施形態のみの構成に限定されるものではなく、実用新案登録請求の範囲に記載した本考案の本質を逸脱しない範囲において、任意の改変を行ってもよい。   The honeycomb gate structure of the present invention described above is not limited to the configuration of the above-described embodiment alone, and any modification can be made without departing from the essence of the present invention described in the claims of the utility model registration. You may go.

本考案の蜜蜂巣門構造は、蜜蜂や蜜蝋の採取等で蜜蜂を飼育する際に好適に利用される。   The honeycomb gate structure of the present invention is suitably used when raising bees by collecting bees or beeswax.
