In Langstrol's hive, bees build honeycombs into frames that can be easily moved. The frames are designed to prevent bees from attaching honeycombs where they will either connect adjacent frames, or connect the frames to the walls of the hive. Moving frames allow the beekeeper to control the bees in a way that was previously impossible. A key innovation responsible for the design of the hive was the opening of a bee space measuring 6 to 9 mm (1⁄4-3⁄8 in), in which bees will not build a crest, and they will not close it with propolis. The modern Langstroth hives have different sizes from the hive of L.L. Langstrot, which was originally patented in 1852 and manufactured until about 1920, but retains the basic features of the bee space permit, as well as easy access, which works well for bees but also facilitates the management of the hive for the beekeeper. The standard hive, used in many parts of the world for beekeeping, is based on Langstroth's hive. The story frame taken from the Langstroth hive seen to the left of the picture before the size of the bee space was discovered, the bees were mostly hived in skeps (conical straw baskets) or gums (hollowed out logs that came close to the natural dwellings of bees), or in a field of hives (a thinned wooden box without internal structure). In 1851, the Rev. Lorenzo Lorraine Langstrotain (1810-1895), a native of Philadelphia, noticed that when his bees were less than 9 mm (3⁄8 in), but more than 6 mm (1⁄4 in) space in which to move, they would neither build a crest in that space nor cement it closed the propolis. This measurement is called bee space. In the summer of 1851 Langstroit applied the concept to keep the lid free on the upper bar of the hive, but in the fall of the same year, he realized that the bee space could be applied to a newly designed frame that would prevent bees from attaching the honeycomb to the inside of the hive window. Attaching the crest to the wall of the hive was difficult with frameless structures such as the aimless movable-crest of the Dsonson hive (1835). U.S. Patent 9300 was issued October 5, 1852 and remained in force, despite numerous attempts to challenge it on the basis of his alleged use of previous art. Langstrout made many other discoveries in beekeeping and made a great contribution to the industrialization of modern beekeeping. Other inventors, notably Francois Huber in 1789, designed hives with frames (the so-called leaf or book hive), but Langstroth's hive was a practical movable hive frame that overcame the tendency of bees to fill empty spaces with a crest and cement smaller spaces along with propolis. Unlike the framed movable side hive of Augusta von Berlepa (May 1852, Germany), Langstroth's hive was opened from above, as was the Bevan top bar hive (1848, Great Britain). These combined adaptations have led to Langstroth hive design preferred by beekeepers over all others, and variations on its hive are used worldwide. Langstroth subsequently published a book called The Practical Treatise on the Hive and the Honeybee, which is now widely known as the Beehive and the Honey Bee or, under the title, with which it was republished in 2004, as Langstroth's Hive and Honeybee: The Guide to the Classic Beekeeper. In this book, Langstroth described the proper size and use of the modern hive in the state we know it today. Langstroth's book went through several editions until about 1900, but in all of them the hive, which is illustrated in the same way as the original design. Bee space Dr. Jan Dzier'on, Polish Apiarist and Roman Catholic priest, in 1835 determined the correct distance for the top bars in hives. The distance between the ridges was described as 1 1⁄2 in (38 mm) from the center of one upper bar to the center of the next. In this case, the distance between the ridges is 1⁄2 in (13 mm); that is, twice the minimum space of the bee 1⁄4 in (6.4 mm). This installation was created for the brood chamber, as the distance of the crest can be different for storing honey. Later, in 1848, Dziron introduced grooves into the side walls of his hives to replace the strips of wood on which the upper bars had previously hung. The grooves were 8mm × 8mm (5⁄16 in × 5⁄16 in), measuring intermediates between 1⁄4⁄8 in (6.4-9.5 mm), the lower and upper limits of the bee space as understood now. 3⁄8 in (9.5 mm) is now the usual size means when the bee space is mentioned. In Europe, both Dzieron and his fellow apiarian Baron August von Berleps were focused on the lateral hives. Land resources for beekeeping were limited, and traditionally several bee hives were stored in the same beekeeping. The so-called bee space was incorporated by Berleps in its frame composition (Bienen-Tseitung, May 1852) after the discovery of Dsonson that the grooves added to the inner walls remain free of propolis (1848). Such The correct distance between the framed side bar and the hive wall already some European beekeepers until 1851. Langstroth's patent of October 5, 1852 took 3⁄8 inches (9.5 mm) between the side grates of the frame and the hive wall, and reserved the rights to use the distance of 1⁄2 inches (13 mm) between the upper bands and the inner cover, the last of which is a gap larger than the optimal one. The term bee space was coined later than Langstrout's patent of 1852. Langstroth may have known about Dsonson's discoveries before he filed his patent application. In the summer of 1851, he became acquainted with the work of Johnson Samuel Wagner, who visited Dzerion on his apiary in Silesia and signed up for Bienen-Tseitung, the magazine in which Dzerion published his paser works, and which translated Theoria and Praxis, ... original German (although the translation was never published). Langstroth paid great respect to Jan Dzerson, saying that no words can express the absorbing interest with which I devoured this work. I immediately recognized its author as the Great Master of Modern Beekeeping. Designed by Langstroth hive footage of the original Langstroth hive was a portico entrance, integrated floor and no removable brood box, one removable honey box (using the same frame size as a brood box) that sat inside the outer box, which stretched out of the brood box, and a hinged roof. Langstroth built his hives so that the frames in which the bees had to make their crests could be easily separated from all the adjacent parts of the hive - the walls of the hive, the floor of the hive, the lid of the hive, and other frames in the hive. To remove the frame from such a hive will not require any crest to be cut. Usually the most trouble a beekeeper encounters in removing the frame from such hive results are from bees using propolis to bond frames in the brackets they rest. Being able to remove and replace combs so easily makes it possible, and practical, for beekeepers to check all their hives on a regular basis. Such inspections to check for signs of disease and/or parasites, imminent swarms, aging queens, and other conditions requiring intervention are essential for successful beekeeping. Langstroth bee hive consists from top to bottom: telescopic cover or migrating cover of internal coating of one or more hive organs or honey super of wood, Polystyrene, or other plastic (optional) queen is the exception between the brood box and honey supers eight to ten frames made of wood or plastic, on a beehive body or honey super (optional) foundation of wax and wires or plastic bottom board, with the additional entrance diminutive outer cover Is a wooden or polystyrene cover that is placed on top of the hive. At higher latitudes (further north in the Northern Hemisphere; further south in the southern hemisphere), the cover that telescopes down inside cover and an inch or so down on top of the top called a telescopic lid, usually used. Many commercial beekeepers use what is known as a migratory coating, a hard coating that does not extend beyond the sides of the hive body. The inner cover of the inner cover provides a barrier between the telescopic cover and the bees. In a more temperate climate, plastic foil can be used as an internal lid. Plastic foil should not be used for winter bees under, as trapped condensate will cause the hive to become wet, and bees may be lost due to freezing when the temperature drops at night.
