DESCRIPCIONDESCRIPTION

Recinto cerrado y protector frente al ataque de la avispa velutina.Enclosed and protective enclosure against the attack of the velutina wasp.

Campo de la invencionField of the invention

La presente invencion se refiere a un recinto cerrado que alberga una pluralidad de colmenas que comprende elementos de protection frente al ataque de la avispa velutina.The present invention relates to a closed enclosure that houses a plurality of hives comprising elements of protection against the attack of the velutina wasp.

El campo de aplicacion de la presente invencion se encuadra dentro de las soluciones destinadas a la lucha contra el ataque de especies invasoras, y mas concretamente el ataque de la avispa velutina.The field of application of the present invention is framed within the solutions intended to combat the attack of invasive species, and more specifically the attack of the velutina wasp.

El objetivo de la invencion es el de desarrollar un recinto protegido donde tanto las abejas como los profesionales del sector de la apicultura puedan desarrollar su funcion sin verse afectadas por el ataque de esa especie invasora.The objective of the invention is to develop a protected enclosure where both bees and professionals in the beekeeping sector can develop their function without being affected by the attack of this invasive species.

Antecedentes de la invencionBackground of the invention

Dentro del sector relacionado con la apicultura se conoce los graves problemas que esta produciendo la especie invasora denominada como avispa o vespa velutina. Este insecto ataca a las abejas convencionales, y es un grave problema en determinadas zonas donde este insecto esta reduciendo de una manera alarmante la poblacion de abejas, lo cual a su vez supone un gravlsimo problema tanto economico como medioambiental.Within the sector related to beekeeping is known the serious problems that is producing the invasive species called as wasp or vespa velutina. This insect attacks conventional bees, and is a serious problem in certain areas where this insect is reducing alarmingly the population of bees, which in turn is a serious economic and environmental problem.

Dentro de los diferentes sistemas y medios conocidos para luchar contra la avispa velutina se destacan los medios que se dirigen a acabar directamente con dicho insecto. Por ejemplo, el documento ES2692468 divulga un dispositivo de anulacion de nidos de la velutina en el que se utilizan drones y permiten atrapar los nidos de dicho insecto; y el documento ES1176683U divulga una tipologla de cartucho que permite explotar dichos nidos. Tambien se han desarrollados diferentes tipologlas de trampas que permiten retener a dichas avispas, por ejemplo, en el documento ES1213525U divulga una tipologla de trampa de grandes dimensiones que permite la captura de avispas velutinas y otras tipologlas de insectos invasores. Estas soluciones estan orientadas a eliminar velutinas, pero no son soluciones que permiten proteger a las abejas del ataque de dichos insectos.Among the different systems and means known to fight against the velutina wasp, the means that aim to directly end with this insect stand out. For example, document ES2692468 discloses a velutina nest annulation device in which drones are used and allow to trap the nests of said insect; and document ES1176683U discloses a cartridge typology that allows these nests to be exploited. Different typologies of traps have also been developed that allow these wasps to be retained, for example, document ES1213525U discloses a large trap typology that allows the capture of velutina wasps and other typologies of invasive insects. These solutions are oriented to eliminate velutinas, but they are not solutions that allow to protect the bees from the attack of said insects.

Adicionalmente hay otro problema, que es que este insecto no solo acaba con la poblacion de abejas sino que hay casos donde ha atacado mortalmente a humanos. Para evitar este problema se conocen soluciones consistentes en trajes especiales, como por ejemplo el descrito en los documentos ES1222549U. ES1171459U o ES1189784U, donde se describen diferentes tipos de trajes y elementos de proteccion con los que apicultores y/o personal de servicio de emergencias pueden utilizar para no ser atacados por dicho insecto tanto en trabajos de intervention rapida o salvamente, o en las labores habituales de explotacion desarrollados por apicultores. Estas soluciones estan destinadas a proteger a los humanos, pero no previenen a las abejas del ataque de las avispas velutinas.Additionally, there is another problem, which is that this insect not only ends the population of bees, but there are cases where it has mortally attacked humans. To avoid this problem, solutions consisting of special suits are known, such as the one described in documents ES1222549U. ES1171459U or ES1189784U, where different types of suits and protection elements are described with which beekeepers and / or emergency service personnel can use to avoid being attacked by this insect both in rapid intervention work or save, or in the usual tasks of exploitation developed by beekeepers. These solutions are meant to protect humans, but they do not prevent bees from attack by velutine wasps.

Tambien se conocen soluciones mas complejas consistentes en la electrocution selectiva de avispas velutinas. Por ejemplo, el documento ES2568947 que divulga un dispositivo constituido por una pluralidad de cebos consistentes en una replica de abeja conectados en serie y en paralelo a una fuente de tension, siendo dicho cebo una replica de abeja tanto en tamano como en forma y color, siendo los cebos capaces de electrocutar a una avispa asiatica pero no a un humano o a un mamlfero, de modo que dichas avispas, en cuanto ven cerca estos cebos se lanzan y sujetan con sus largas patas, momento en que mueren electrocutadas. Tambien se conoce lo divulgado en el documento ES1202042U donde se describe un dispositivo electronico con una pluralidad de hilos conductores que generan impulsos electricos que matan a la avispa cuando esta contacta con ellos; o lo divulgado en el documento ES1215784U donde se describe la ubicacion de placas planas con cebos en la salidas de las colmenas que capturan y electrocutan a las avispas velutinas. Esta tipologla de soluciones permite acabar con las avispas velutinas en zonas proximas a las colmenas, pero son soluciones complejas de implementar, ademas de que no permiten generar un area segura no solo para las abejas sino tambien para los apicultores.Also more complex solutions are known consisting of the selective electrocution of velutine wasps. For example, document ES2568947 discloses a device consisting of a plurality of baits consisting of a bee replica connected in series and in parallel to a voltage source, said bait being a bee replica both in size and shape and color, being the baits capable of electrocuting an Asian wasp but not a human or a mammal, so that these wasps, as soon as they see these baits are launched and held with their long legs, at which point they die electrocuted. It is also known what is disclosed in document ES1202042U where a device is described electronic with a plurality of conducting wires that generate electrical impulses that kill the wasp when it contacts them; or what is disclosed in document ES1215784U which describes the location of flat plates with baits at the exit of the hives that capture and electrocute the velutina wasps. This typology of solutions allows to end the velutina wasps in areas near the hives, but they are complex solutions to implement, besides that they do not allow to generate a safe area not only for bees but also for beekeepers.

Teniendo en cuenta los problemas antes descritos y las soluciones conocidas en este sector Industrial, se considera que hay un problema tecnico no resuelto hasta la fecha consistente en poder generar un recinto cerrado que permita obtener un gran espacio protegido donde tanto las abejas como los apicultores se encuentren a salvo del ataque de dichas avispas velutinas, y donde tanto las abejas pueda realizar su funcion natural a salvo, como los apicultores puedan desarrollar su actividad laboral sin el peligro del ataque de dichos insectos invasores. Por tanto, la presente invencion soluciona el problema de asegurar un espacio donde los apicultores y las abejas esten protegidas frente al ataque de las avispas velutinas.Taking into account the problems described above and the solutions known in this industrial sector, it is considered that there is a technical problem that has not been solved to date, which is to generate a closed area that allows obtaining a large protected space where both bees and beekeepers find safe from the attack of these velutine wasps, and where both bees can perform their natural function safely, as beekeepers can develop their work without the danger of attack by these invading insects. Therefore, the present invention solves the problem of ensuring a space where beekeepers and bees are protected against the attack of the velutine wasps.

Descripcion de la invencionDescription of the invention

La invencion consiste en un recinto cerrado cuya estructura permite albergar una pluralidad de colmenas y proteger tanto a las abejas como a los apicultores de los ataques de la avispa velutina.The invention consists of a closed enclosure whose structure allows a plurality of beehives to be housed and to protect both bees and beekeepers from attack by the velutina wasp.

Para ello primero se describe la estructura del recinto. Esta estructura permite obtener un recinto cerrado a modo de invernadero, pero que en vez de albergar flora, permite albergar y proteger colmenas. Este recinto comprende un tejado a dos aguas con paredes laterales y frontales que cierran el conjunto y que en sus laterales el tejado tiene una prolongation, visera o alera en voladizo.For this, the structure of the enclosure is first described. This structure allows to obtain a closed room as a greenhouse, but instead of housing flora, it can house and protect hives. This enclosure comprises a gabled roof with side and front walls that close the set and that on its sides the roof has a prolongation, visor or wing cantilever.

La parte interior del recinto tiene un pasillo central, al que se accede desde una puerta frontal ubicada en la pared frontal delantera, que permite ubicar las colmenas en los laterales a ambos lados del pasillo, y en la parte trasera junto con la pared frontal trasera, de modo que el apicultor puede acceder facilmente a todas las colmenas. Las paredes que cierran el recinto comprenden una malla protectora del tipo mosquitera o similar, en todo el perlmetro desde el suelo hasta el techo, lo que asegura que ninguna avispa (o cualquier otro insecto o partlculas de tamano elevado) pueda introducirse en el recinto. El tejado esta recubierto de plastico y de una malla de sombrero. Esto genera una zona de nucleos-colmenas perimetral, protegida y accesible por parte de los apicultores.The inner part of the enclosure has a central corridor, which is accessed from a front door located on the front front wall, which allows to locate the beehives on the sides on both sides of the corridor, and in the rear along with the rear front wall , so that the beekeeper can easily access all the hives. The walls that enclose the enclosure comprise a protective mesh of the mosquito type or similar, in the entire perimeter from the floor to the ceiling, which ensures that no wasp (or any other insect or particles of high size) can be introduced into the enclosure. The roof is covered with plastic and a hat mesh. This generates a zone of perimeter beehive nuclei, protected and accessible by beekeepers.

La entrada y salida de abejas en las colmenas se realiza mediante la generation de diferentes barreras adaptadas a los nucleos-colmenas, disponiendo todas ellas de una caracterizacion en el largo horizontal y en las rampas dependiendo de las dimensiones del propio-nucleo colmena. Estas barreras son por tanto variables en numero y dependen de la cantidad de colmenas que esten ubicadas en el interior del recinto. Estas barreras comunican la colmena con el exterior, atravesando la malla de protection, y tienen una longitud variable, aunque preferentemente de unos 2,50 cm que impide la entrada de la avispa en el interior de la colmena. Una de las particularidades de las barreras para impedir la entrada de las avispas velutinas mientras que permita la entrada y salida de abejas obreras es que dichas barreras pueden comprender redes tanto internas como externas, de manera que debido al elevado tamano de la avispa velutina con respecto a las abejas, esta no puede entrar en el interior del recinto cerrado a traves de dichas redes. A su vez, cuando a abeja ha accedido piquera interior se encuentra con una pluralidad de rampas para mejorar el acceso a la colmena. En este sentido, las abejas obreras necesitan un tiempo de adaptation al nuevo entorno y a la barrera. Ademas, cabe indicar que las abejas van a la claridad cuando salen de la colmena, por este motivo se coloca, preferentemente, una chapa o madera encima de las rampas mientras aprenden cual es la entrada y la salida.The entrance and exit of bees in the hives is done through the generation of different barriers adapted to the nuclei-hives, all of them having a characterization in the horizontal length and in the ramps depending on the dimensions of the hive-core itself. These barriers are therefore variable in number and depend on the number of hives that are located inside the enclosure. These barriers communicate the hive with the outside, crossing the protection mesh, and have a variable length, although preferably of about 2.50 cm that prevents the entrance of the wasp inside the hive. One of the particularities of the barriers to prevent the entrance of velutina wasps while allowing the entry and exit of worker bees is that these barriers can include both internal and external networks, so that due to the high size of the velutina wasp with respect to to bees, it can not enter the interior of the enclosure through these networks. At the same time, when the bee has accessed the inner entrance there is a plurality of ramps to improve access to the hive. In this sense, worker bees need a time of adaptation to the new environment and the barrier. In addition, it should be noted that bees go to clarity when they leave the hive, for this reason is placed, preferably, a sheet or wood on the ramps while learning what is the entrance and exit.

Volviendo a la estructura del recinto, el techo es sustentado por una pluralidad de largueros y pilares que sustentan el tejado respecto de las paredes perimetrales. La visera o alero, que preferentemente prosigue con la inclination del tejado, es sustentado por unas abrazaderas horizontales que fijan el alero a la pared lateral. En el extremo del alero se dispone de unos tensores verticales de alambre que se fijan al suelo con una piqueta, la cual puede introducirse en la tierra o en cemento/cimiento. Es precisamente en las diferentes abrazaderas laterales donde se fijan la pluralidad de dispositivos de protection frente a las avispas velutinas que estan en el exterior y que actuan a modo de trampas.Returning to the structure of the enclosure, the roof is supported by a plurality of stringers and pillars that support the roof with respect to the perimeter walls. The visor or eaves, which preferably continues with the inclination of the roof, is supported by horizontal clamps that fix the eaves to the side wall. At the end of the eaves are available vertical wire tensioners that are fixed to the ground with a pickaxe, which can be introduced into the ground or cement / foundation. It is precisely in the different lateral clamps where the plurality of protection devices are fixed against the velutine wasps that are on the outside and that act as traps.

Cada uno de los dispositivos exteriores consisten en un espejo albergado en un marco con una pluralidad de filamentos verticales a modo de arpa, y donde el espejo puede ser total o parcial dependiendo del numero y/o ubicacion de las colmenas y respectivas barreras en el interior del recinto. Estos espejos se fijan y/o cuelgan de las abrazaderas previamente descritas, y por tanto se disponen perpendicularmente respecto de la pared lateral, quedando todos los dispositivos dispuestos paralelamente entre si. Estos filamentos pueden estar conectados a corriente, lo que permite que dichas avispas se puedan electrocutar, siendo preferentemente alambres. En este sentido, en la parte inferior del marco hay. Por cada cara, una regleta de posicionamiento de filamentos-alambres para la separation y disposition de dichos alambres mientras que en la parte superior hay al menos una regleta distribuidora de corriente, que a la vez que posiciona los alambres, distribuye corriente electrica. Los alambres llevan unos muelles tensores que fijan la position y tension de los alambres. Por su parte, en los laterales o costados del marco hay unas ranuras para poder introducir el espejo de dos caras, habiendo en el costado opuesto otra ranura que permite apoyar dicho espejo. Estos dispositivos hacen que las avispas se desorienten por el efecto optico, y que en algunos casos hacen que dichas avispas se electrocuten al contactar con los filamentos. Para ello, los espejos, tal como se ha dicho con anterioridad, pueden ser totales o parciales, de diferentes dimensiones y alturas dependiendo del conjunto del recinto.Each of the exterior devices consist of a mirror housed in a frame with a plurality of vertical filaments as a harp, and where the mirror can be total or partial depending on the number and / or location of the hives and respective barriers inside of the enclosure. These mirrors are fixed and / or hang from the clamps previously described, and therefore are arranged perpendicularly with respect to the side wall, leaving all the devices arranged parallel to each other. These filaments may be connected to current, which allows said wasps to be electrocuted, preferably wires. In this sense, in the lower part of the frame there is. For each side, a strand-wire positioning strip for the separation and disposition of said wires while in the upper part there is at least one current distribution strip, which, while positioning the wires, distributes electric current. The wires have tension springs that fix the position and tension of the wires. For its part, on the sides or sides of the frame there are slots to be able to introduce the two-sided mirror, having on the opposite side another slot that allows to support said mirror. These devices cause the wasps to be disoriented by the optical effect, and in some cases they cause these wasps to be electrocuted when contacting the filaments. To do this, the mirrors, as previously mentioned, can be total or partial, of different dimensions and heights depending on the whole of the enclosure.

Otra particularidad de la invention esta en que la estructura puede ser modular, lo que hace que se pueda ajustar el largo total del recinto segun las necesidades de la explotacion. De una manera preferente, la construction minima de recinto es de 4 metros de largo, pudiendo ser complementado con modulos de 2 metros.Another particularity of the invention is that the structure can be modular, which makes it possible to adjust the total length of the enclosure according to the needs of the operation. In a preferred way, the minimum construction of the enclosure is 4 meters long, which can be supplemented with modules of 2 meters.

Desde un punto de vista de definition de section, el frente horizontal o ancho protegido del recinto es de unos 3,50 metros, el alto a partir de 1,75 metros, y el largo del tejado de unos 2 metros. En una realization preferente de la invencion, el largo de la visera o larguero lateral esta en el entorno de los 1,50 metros, mientras que el largo de la abrazadera horizontal donde se fijan los dispositivos con espejo tiene aproximadamente 1,20 metros de largo. Por su parte, el ancho de la puerta de acceso del apicultor esta en el orden de los 1,25 metros, mientras que la altura en unos 1,70 metros. Esto permite tener un ancho lateral donde ubicar los nucleoscolmenas de unos 1,10 cm. Estas dimensiones no pretender ser limitativas, sino muestran una realizacion preferente, pudiendo estos valores variar en funcion de las necesidades de la explotacion o del tamano de las colmenas.From a point of view definition of section, the horizontal or protected width of the enclosure is about 3.50 meters, the height from 1.75 meters, and the length of the roof of about 2 meters. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the length of the visor or lateral crossbar is in the vicinity of 1.50 meters, while the length of the horizontal clamp where the mirror devices are fixed is approximately 1.20 meters long . For its part, the width of the access door of the beekeeper is in the order of 1.25 meters, while the height in about 1.70 meters. This allows to have a lateral width where to locate the nuclei of about 1.10 cm. These dimensions do not intend to be limiting, but show a preferred embodiment, these values can vary depending on the needs of the operation or the size of the hives.

Finalmente, esta invencion permite que el apicultor pueda ubicar en los laterales del pasillo cualquier tipo de colmena, la cual puede estar apoyada en barrotes y/o bloques, pudiendo esta colmena tener diferentes altura y anchura, pudiendo ser de diferentes materiales, y disponer de diferentes rampas de acceso. La ventaja radica en que estas colmenas al estar albergadas dentro del recinto cerrado y protegido permiten que la abeja pueda estar en condiciones de seguridad frente al ataque de dichas avispas al igual que el apicultor que puede realizar su labor sin miedo a que pueda ser atacado por dicho insecto volador. Finally, this invention allows the beekeeper to locate on the sides of the aisle any type of hive, which can be supported on bars and / or blocks, this hive being able to have different height and width, being able to be of different materials, and dispose of different access ramps. The advantage lies in the fact that these beehives, being housed inside the enclosed and protected enclosure, allow the bee to be in a safe condition against the attack of said wasps, as well as the beekeeper who can perform his work without fear of being attacked by said flying insect.

A lo largo de la description y las reivindicaciones, el termino “comprende” y sus variantes no pretenden excluir otras caracterlsticas tecnicas o elementos adicionales. Del mismo modo que las dimensiones particulares previamente descritas no pretenden limitar el ambito de protection a esas medidas exactas.Throughout the description and the claims, the term "comprises" and its variants are not intended to exclude other technical characteristics or additional elements. In the same way that the particular dimensions previously described are not intended to limit the scope of protection to those exact measures.

Descripcion detalla de las figuras de la invencionDetailed description of the figures of the invention

En la Figura 1 se puede observar que la invencion consiste en un recinto cerrado y protegido en el que tanto las abejas como el apicultor estan a salvo del ataque de avispas velutinas. En este sentido el recinto, que tiene una estructura que se puede asemejar a la de un invernadero, comprende un tejado (1) a dos aguas con paredes laterales (2) y paredes frontales (3) que cierran el conjunto y que en sus laterales, el tejado tiene una prolongation o alero (4) en voladizo, en la cual, se ubican unos dispositivos (no representados en Fig. 1) con espejos que sirven como trampa a dichas avispas.In Figure 1 it can be seen that the invention consists of a closed and protected enclosure in which both the bees and the beekeeper are safe from attack by velutine wasps. In this sense the enclosure, which has a structure that can be likened to a greenhouse, comprises a roof (1) gabled with side walls (2) and front walls (3) that close the set and that on their sides , the roof has a projection or eaves (4) cantilevered, in which devices (not shown in Fig. 1) are located with mirrors that serve as a trap to said wasps.

En las Figuras 2 y 3 se puede observar la representacion de una seccion transversal y una planta del recinto, donde se puede observar que hay un pasillo central (10), al que se accede desde una puerta frontal (31) ubicada en la pared frontal delantera, que permite ubicar una pluralidad de colmenas (5) en los laterales a ambos lados del pasillo (10), y en la parte trasera junto con la pared frontal trasera Las paredes (2. 3) y el tejado (1) que cierran el recinto comprenden una malla (6) del tipo mosquitera o similar, en todo el perlmetro desde el suelo hasta el techo, lo que asegura que ninguna avispa pueda introducirse en el recinto. La entrada y salida de abejas en las colmenas (5) se realiza mediante la generation de diferentes barreras (7) adaptadas a los nucleos-colmenas. Estas barreras comunican la colmena con el exterior, atravesando la malla (6) de proteccion, y tienen una longitud variable que impide la entrada de la avispa en el interior de la colmena. Volviendo a la estructura del recinto, el tejado (1) es sustentado por una pluralidad de largueros y pilares (11) que sustentan el tejado (1) respecto de las paredes perimetrales (2. 3). El alero (4), que preferentemente prosigue con la misma inclination que el tejado (1), es sustentado por unas abrazaderas (8) horizontales que fijan el alero a la pared lateral (2). En el extremo del alero (4) se dispone de unos tensores verticales (81) de alambre que se fijan al suelo con una piqueta (82), la cual puede introducirse en la tierra o en cemento/cimiento. Tal como se observa en la Figura 4, es precisamente en las diferentes abrazaderas (8) laterales donde se fijan la pluralidad de dispositivos (9) de protection frente a las avispas velutinas. Estos dispositivos (9) se fijan y/o cuelgan de las abrazaderas (8), y por tanto se disponen perpendicularmente respecto de la pared lateral (2), quedando todos los dispositivos (9) dispuestos enfrentados paralelamente entre si.Figures 2 and 3 show the representation of a cross section and a floor of the enclosure, where it can be seen that there is a central corridor (10), which is accessed from a front door (31) located on the front wall front, which allows locating a plurality of hives (5) on the sides on both sides of the corridor (10), and on the back along with the rear front wall The walls (2. 3) and the roof (1) that close the enclosure comprises a mesh (6) of the mosquito type or similar type, in the entire perimeter from the floor to the ceiling, which ensures that no wasp can enter the enclosure. The entrance and exit of bees in the hives (5) is done by generating different barriers (7) adapted to the nuclei-hives. These barriers communicate the hive with the outside, crossing the mesh (6) of protection, and have a variable length that prevents the entrance of the wasp inside the hive. Returning to the structure of the enclosure, the roof (1) is supported by a plurality of spars and pillars (11) that support the roof (1) with respect to the perimeter walls (2. 3). The eaves (4), which preferably continues with the same inclination that the roof (1), is supported by horizontal clamps (8) that fix the eaves to the side wall (2). At the end of the eaves (4) are available vertical tensioners (81) of wire that are fixed to the ground with a pickaxe (82), which can be introduced into the ground or cement / foundation. As seen in Figure 4, it is precisely in the different lateral clamps (8) where the plurality of devices (9) of protection against the velutine wasps are fixed. These devices (9) are fixed and / or hang from the clamps (8), and are therefore arranged perpendicularly with respect to the side wall (2), leaving all the devices (9) arranged parallel to one another.

Tal como se representa en las Figuras 5 a 8, cada uno de los dispositivos (9) exteriores consisten en un espejo (91) de doble cara albergado en un marco (92) con una pluralidad de filamentos (93) verticales exteriores que dotan al conjunto la apariencia de arpa Como se ha anticipado en la description estos filamentos (93) pueden estar conectados a corriente, lo que permite que dichas avispas se puedan electrocutar, siendo preferentemente alambres, para ello, tal como se ve en el detalle de la Fig.7, la parte superior hay al menos una regleta distribuidora de corriente (94), que a la vez que posiciona los alambres, distribuye corriente electrica. Los filamentos (93) dispuestos en dicha regleta estan tambien fijados mediante una regleta de posicionamiento (95) que distribuye los filamentos (93) que separa y dispone ordenadamente de dichos filamentos (93), estando ubicado en la parte inferior del marco (92). Los filamentos llevan unos muelles tensores que fijan la position y tension de los alambres, ubicados preferentemente en al menos una regleta de posicionamiento (95). Otro aspecto es que en un costado del marco hay una ranura de introduction (96) para poder introducir el espejo (91) de dos caras habiendo en el costado opuesto otra ranura de apoyo (97) que permite apoyar dicho espejo (91). Esto hace, tal como se ve en la Figura 8, que el espejo (91) de doble cara quede protegido dentro del marco (92) y esta entre las dos hileras de filamentos (93) ubicados en ambas caras del marco, haciendo por tanto que las se desorienten por el efecto optico, y que en algunos casos hacen que dichas avispas velutinas se electrocuten al contactar con los filamentos. As shown in Figures 5 to 8, each of the outer devices (9) consist of a double-sided mirror (91) housed in a frame (92) with a plurality of exterior vertical filaments (93) which provide the set the appearance of harp As anticipated in the description these filaments (93) may be connected to current, which allows said wasps can be electrocuted, preferably being wires, for this, as seen in the detail of the .7, the upper part has at least one power distribution strip (94), which, while positioning the wires, distributes electric current. The filaments (93) arranged in said strip are also fixed by a positioning strip (95) that distributes the filaments (93) that separates and disposes orderly of said filaments (93), being located in the lower part of the frame (92) . The filaments have tension springs that fix the position and tension of the wires, preferably located on at least one positioning strip (95). Another aspect is that on one side of the frame there is an introduction groove (96) to be able to introduce the mirror (91) of two faces having on the opposite side another support groove (97) that allows said mirror (91) to be supported. This makes, as seen in Figure 8, that the double-sided mirror (91) is protected within the frame (92) and is between the two rows of filaments (93) located on both sides of the frame, thereby that they become disoriented by the optical effect, and that in some cases they cause these velutine wasps to be electrocuted when contacting the filaments.

Claims

1. Closed and protective enclosure against the attack of the velutina wasp, where the enclosure lodges a plurality of beehives (5) in its interior and protects so much to the bees as to the apiculturist, where the structure of said enclosure is constituted by a roof ( 1) and side walls (2) and front walls (3) that close the set, where the hives (5) are located around a central corridor (10) which is accessed by a door (11) located on a wall frontal (3), in such a way that said hives (5) are adjacent to the side walls (2) and the front wall (3) rear and are easily accessible to the beekeeper, and characterized by that the enclosure also comprises:

- a cantilevered eave (4) that gives continuity to the roof (1), the eave (4) being supported by a horizontal clamp (8) that fixes the eaves (8) to the structure of the side wall (2);

- a protective mesh (6) that closes the side walls (2), front walls (3) and the roof (1);

- barriers (7) with their respective ramp adapted in each hive (5), which cross and protrude from the mesh (6), and which communicate the interior of the enclosure with the outside for the entrance and exit of bees from the enclosure; Y

- exterior trap devices (9) that are fixed to the clamps (8) and that consist of a frame (92) internally comprising a double-sided mirror (91) and having vertical filaments (93) on both outer faces of the device (9).

2. Closed and protective enclosure against the attack of the velutina wasp, according to claim 1, characterized in that the roof (1) is pitched and is covered with plastic.

3. Closed and protective enclosure against the attack of the velutina wasp, according to claim 1, characterized in that at the end of the eaves (4) there are vertical tensioners (1) of wire that fix the ground with pickaxes (82).

4. Closed and protective enclosure against the attack of the velutina wasp, according to claim 1, characterized in that the barriers (7) protrude 2.50 cm from the mesh (6).

5. Closed and protective enclosure against the attack of the velutina wasp, according to claim 1, characterized in that the trap devices (9) are located perpendicular with respect to the side walls (2) leaving all the devices (9) arranged in parallel and in a confronting manner with each other.

6. Closed and protective enclosure against the attack of the velutina wasp, according to claim 1, characterized in that on one side of the frame (92) of the device (9) there is an introduction slot (96) to be able to introduce the mirror (91) of two faces, having on the opposite side another support groove (97) that allows to support said mirror (91).

7. Closed and protective enclosure against the attack of the velutina wasp, according to claim 1, characterized in that in the lower part of the frame (92) there is at least one positioning strip (95) of ordered separation of the filaments (93) along the outer face of the device (9).

8. Closed and protective enclosure against the attack of the velutina wasp, according to the previous claim, characterized in that the filaments (93) have tension springs in the positioning strip (95).

9. Closed and protective enclosure against the attack of the velutina wasp, according to claim 1, characterized in that in the upper part of the frame (92) there is at least one power distribution strip (94) that provides electrical current to the filaments (93).
