BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a nest box holding table and a nest box using the same according to the present invention. The nesting box holding base 10 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 has a truncated pyramid-shaped hollow box body in which the bottom portion 4 is set wider than the top surface portion 2 and the side wall portion 3 is inclined to have a substantially trapezoidal cross section. Has become.

The top surface 2 is formed with an opening 5 communicating with the internal hollow, and the nest box 20 is fitted and held in the opening 5. A gripping hole 6 serving as a gripping portion is formed in the side wall portion 3 so that the nest box 20 can be lifted or moved via the nest box holding base 10. In the present embodiment, the opening 5 of the holding table 10 is provided with inner wall pieces 7 that respectively hang down along the edges of the four sides thereof, thereby restricting the movement and swinging of the fitted nest box 20. are doing.

FIG. 3 is an exploded view of the holding base 10, and FIGS. 1 and 2 show a bent state thereof. That is, the holding table 10 is made of one piece of corrugated cardboard, has a rectangular first folding curve L1 that is folded in the center, and has an opening 5 along the first folding curve L1. Is formed as

The portion surrounded by the first folding curve L1 is cut along the diagonal line, and the inner wall piece 7 bent along the four sides of the opening 5 is formed. Therefore, the opening 5 is formed along the first folding curve L1 by bending the inner wall piece 7 along the first folding curve L1,
The inner wall piece 7 hangs down to partition an internal space communicating with the opening 5 to form a birdhouse storage space S (see FIG. 2).

Next, outside the first folding curve L1, a second folding curve L2 which is similar in shape and rectangular and is mountain-folded is formed. Then, the first folding curve L1 and the second folding curve L2
The top wall portion 1 in which a frame-shaped flat portion formed between the top surface and the top surface
Form 2

At the corner of each side of the second folding curve L2, there is formed a third folding curve L3 which is provided as a pair of left and right sides from each corner and extends diagonally outward from each corner. ing. A side wall piece that is connected to the top wall portion 12 and extends along each side of the second fold curve L2 and is substantially trapezoidal surrounded by the pair of third fold curves L3 to form the side wall portion 3 The part 13 is formed.

Between the adjacent side wall pieces 13, there is formed an inner folding piece 14 having a fourth folding curve L4 surrounded by a third folding curve L3 and folded in the center by valley. The inner folded piece 14 is folded in half along the fourth folding curve L4 to reinforce the corner portion of the holding table 1, and the four side wall pieces 13 are circumferentially contacted to form the side wall section 3. It has become.

Each of the side wall pieces 13 is provided with a holding hole 6. The side wall piece 13 is provided with four bottom wall pieces 15 that extend in a rectangular or trapezoidal shape via a fifth fold curve L5 that is mountain-folded along the outer side thereof. The bottom portion 4 is formed by being alternately overlapped vertically and horizontally and hooked to form a bottom portion 4, which forms the bottom portion of the birdhouse storage space S.

In the present embodiment, the known nest box 20 is made of a well-known Nachupol (trade name) (manufactured by Koppert, the Netherlands). 1 and 2, the nest box 20 has a rectangular parallelepiped box shape, and includes a box main body 21 and a separate upper lid 22. The box body 21 has a built-in sugar water tank 23 as a feeding tank at the lower part.

Further, a partition wall 24 is formed at an intermediate position of the box main body 21 so as to partition vertically, and a storage chamber 25 for storing a queen bee, a worker bee, an egg and a larva is formed above the partition wall 24. A feed port 26 communicating with the sugar water tank 23 protrudes from the partition wall 24. Although not shown, the storage chamber 25 contains cotton impregnated with sugar water.

The storage chamber 25 has a mesh-type inner lid 2 on its upper surface.
7 are fitted, and a sliding flight port 28 (see FIG. 1) provided with a bee entrance is formed on the side.
Further, a ventilation hole 29 is formed in the box body 21 and the upper lid 22 to keep the storage chamber 25 air-permeable.

The nest box 20 is inserted through the opening 5 of the nest box holding base 10 and fitted into the nest box storage space S. This allows
The nest box 20 is detachably fitted and held in the nest box holding base 1 to form the transport nest box 1 as shown in FIG. 4, so that the nest box 20 can be carried by holding the holding hole 6 of the nest box holding base 10. In addition, during transportation of the transport nest box 1, the nest box holding table 10 is provided.
Since the bottom of the nest box is set wide, the birdhouse 20 does not swing or tilt, and can maintain a stable posture.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, but can be arbitrarily changed in design according to the application. The structure of the nest box is not limited to the above embodiment. Further, the nest box holding base may have a structure in which an inner wall piece is not provided, a concave portion for fitting the nest box bottom is formed at the bottom, or a holding plate for inserting the nest box at an intermediate position of the nest box is interposed.

Further, the bottom surface of the nest box holding table may be a structure in which the bottom wall pieces are alternately hooked to maintain a horizontal posture, or may be integrally formed by connecting seams with an adhesive tape. Furthermore, in the above embodiment, a beehive for bees is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to bees and can be applied as a hive for other insects or a hive holding stand.

[0021]

According to the present invention, the hive can be made more stable simply by fitting the hive into the hive holder. In addition, the nest box holder can be manufactured at a low cost with a simple structure. Further, by using the nest box as a transport nest box, the nest box can be stabilized so as not to shake or tilt during transportation, which is extremely useful.
