MISE EN PLACE.SETUP.
L'appareil pour manipuler des ruches habitées, composées d'éléments supeφosables selon le dispositif de l'invention peut être poussé sur sondit roulement (19) par l'utilisateur en le prenant par la partie supérieure dudit cadre montant pivotant (3) comme une sorte de brouette traditionnelle jusqu'à l'emplacement de la ruche à manipuler, puis directement basculé sur le support de ruche, ou à défaut sur le sol, et sur sesdites barres d'assise horizontales (1) de façon à englober la ruche à manipuler de préférence par derrière ou latéralement par rapport à l'entrée des abeilles à la ruche (moins de dérangement pour les abeilles) pendant que lesdites barres d'assise inclinées (2), du fait de ses articulations et par l'effet dudit jambage coulissant (8) en position de coulissement libre reste posées au sol par ses extrémités attachées munies dudit roulement (19); alors que de ladite tenaille (6) étant en position haute, dudit jambage coulissant (8) engagé au coulissement, c'est alors que le système dudit de blocage de pivotement (9) pré-réglé, goupille de blocage engagée dans l'évidement correspondant au pivotement voulu s'impose.The apparatus for handling inhabited hives, composed of supe suposable elements according to the device of the invention can be pushed onto the bearing (19) by the user by taking it by the upper part of said pivoting upright frame (3) as a sort of traditional wheelbarrow up to the location of the beehive to be handled, then directly tilted onto the beehive support, or failing that, onto the ground, and onto its said horizontal seat bars (1) so as to encompass the beehive preferably handle from behind or laterally with respect to the entry of the bees into the hive (less disturbance for the bees) while said inclined seat bars (2), due to its articulations and by the effect of said leg sliding (8) in free sliding position remains on the ground by its attached ends provided with said bearing (19); while said pincers (6) being in the high position, of said sliding leg (8) engaged in sliding, it is then that the system of said pivoting locking block (9) pre-adjusted, locking pin engaged in the recess corresponding to the desired pivot is required.
FONCTIONNEMENTOPERATION
L'utilisation de l'appareil à mampuler des ruches habitées, composées d'éléments supeφosables selon le dispositif de l'invention déjà installé sur la ruche à manipuler commence par l'ouverture et l'enfilage par le haut de ladite tenaille (6) sur la ruche, puis son abaissement au niveau voulu en faisant actionner ledit organe de levage (7) puis une fois la saisie de l'élément à manipuler enclenchée par ladite tenaille (6), l'élévation et l'abaissement des éléments de ruche manipulés et en une seule fois s'obtient en faisant actionner le même-dit organe de levage (7) comme précédemment. L'élévation et l'abaissement d'une partie de la ruche permet d'intercaler au niveau de la manipulation par exemple d'une grille à reine, ou d'un plateau "chasse - d'abeilles" ou un ou plusieurs éléments d'extension. L'élévation et l'abaissement de la ruche entière en une seule fois, à l'exception de son plateau par exemple laisse la possibilité de retirer et de retourner ou de changer celui-ci ou alors d'introduire sous cette ruche habitée manipulée ou sous les éléments manipulés un, voire plusieurs éléments d'extension, alors que par la méthode manuelle traditionnelle les manipulations des ruches habitées s'exécutaient élément par élément et à bout de bras d'homme. Le pivotement des éléments de ruche soulevés s'effectue par une action, horizontale de "tirer- pousser" manuelle par exemple, à appliquer au sommet dudit cadre montant pivotant (3) exercée dans la direction opposée du soutien dudit cadre ouvert de jambage fixe (4); le blocage du pivotement étant assuré par ledit système de blocage (9) goupille engagée dans l'évidement choisi sur ledit jambage coulissant (8), et qui lui soutient alors ledit cadre montant pivotant (3) en plus de ses points d'appuis par ses articulations dans sa nouvelle position. Cependant le pivotement exécuté provoque plusieurs effets comme par exemple ledit cadre ouvert de jambage fixe (4) et sondit cadre prolongateur
triangulaire amovible (14) se retrouve en position horizontale ou proche, prête à recevoir un plateau amovible suffisamment dimensionné ou le toit plat inversé de la ruche manipulée et sur lequel seront déposés les éléments de ruche manipulés et en une seule fois par ledit organe de levage (7) et à défaut dudit cadre prolongateur amovible (14) pour des travaux de récolte par exemple, la pose des éléments de ruche manipulés peut s'effectuer par un supplément de pivotement combiné avec l'action dudit organe de levage (7) et également en une seule fois et cela directement sur un transport préalablement positionné sous le pivotement. L'autre effet principal du pivotement exécuté est le fait que la partie de la ruche non manipulée se retrouve entièrement dégagée par rapport à la partie pivotée, laissant ainsi l'accès à la visite des cadres de ruche pour l'utilisateur, comme pour la visite des cadres se trouvant dans le dernier élément manipulé.The use of the apparatus for mampulating inhabited hives, composed of supeφosable elements according to the device of the invention already installed on the hive to be handled begins with the opening and threading from the top of said pincers (6) on the hive, then lowering it to the desired level by actuating said lifting member (7) then once the gripping of the element to be manipulated engaged by said pincers (6), raising and lowering of the hive elements manipulated and all at once is obtained by actuating the same-said lifting member (7) as before. The raising and lowering of a part of the hive makes it possible to interpose, at the level of handling, for example of a queen-size grid, or of a "bee-hunting" tray or one or more elements of 'extension. The raising and lowering of the entire hive at one time, with the exception of its tray for example leaves the possibility of removing and turning or changing it or then introduce under this inhabited hive manipulated or under the manipulated elements one, or even several extension elements, while by the traditional manual method the manipulations of inhabited hives were carried out element by element and at arm's length. The pivoting of the hive elements raised is effected by a horizontal action of manual "pull-push" for example, to be applied to the top of said pivoting upright frame (3) exerted in the opposite direction of the support of said open frame of fixed jamb ( 4); the pivoting locking being ensured by said locking system (9) pin engaged in the recess chosen on said sliding jamb (8), and which then supports said pivoting upright frame (3) in addition to its support points by his joints in his new position. However, the pivoting carried out causes several effects such as, for example, said open frame of fixed jamb (4) and probes the extension frame. removable triangular (14) is found in a horizontal or close position, ready to receive a sufficiently dimensioned removable tray or the inverted flat roof of the hive handled and on which will be deposited the hive elements handled and all at once by said lifting member (7) and failing said removable extension frame (14) for harvesting work for example, the installation of the hive elements handled can be carried out by a pivoting supplement combined with the action of said lifting member (7) and also all at once and this directly on a transport previously positioned under the pivoting. The other main effect of the pivoting carried out is the fact that the part of the hive not manipulated is found entirely clear with respect to the pivoted part, thus leaving access to the visit of the hive frames for the user, as for the visit of the executives in the last element handled.

OF A ROTATING PIVOTING FRAME (3) rectangular, in its initial inclined position, its apex thus being vertical to the hive to be mampulated, can be reinforced in its upper part by stiffeners (5) for example and in its lower part by stiffeners (18), for example, presses on either side of its base on a first end (10) of a horizontal seat bar (1) positioned peφendicular to this base, the whole pivoting facing said horizontal seat bars (1) on a first end of two inclined seat bars (2) equally spaced on either side of the same base and articulated themselves on the same point (10) and the other ends of which meet in a joint (16) provided with a bearing (19) serving to support the movement of the assembly and being connected by the intermediary of said joint (16) and by a first end of a leg sliding in it same, (8) of which l es graduated recesses with engaged pin (9) for example ensure the sliding blocking effect while by its other end it is fixed by a hinge (17) at the top of an open rectangular frame of fixed jamb (4) inclined, reinforced by stiffeners (15) for example and provided with a removable extension frame (14) for example triangular and connecting by its open side and on both sides, by a fixing (13) the other end of said bars horizontal seat (1) and said pivoting upright frame (3) at its intermediate height by another fastening (12) on either side so that the inclination of said open frame of fixed jamb (4) and probes extension frame (14) assume the horizontal or close position, capable of receiving a removable isolation plate, or the flat upturned roof of the manipulated hive on which the manipulated hive elements are intended to be placed when the pivoting of said hitch is blocked frame went up pivoting nt (3) which, by its articulations (10), rests on its inclined seat bars (2) during its pivoting, the effect of which is caused by a horizontal "pull-push" action manual for example, applied to the top and peφendicular to said pivoting upright frame (3) the upper part of which is provided with a lifting member (7) by winch for example, provided for example with cables or chains (11) attached to a pincer system (6) consisting for example of two frames nested one inside the other by being articulated to the shearing effect, intended to grasp and then to hold manipulated elements while these following the pivoting are thus found entirely free vertically with respect to the elements of hives not manipulated.
