ABSTRACT:
The wax lids of honeycomb cells are removed by a rotating tool which is provided as a rotating, cylindrical brush with firm, flexibly deflectable bristles. The honeycomb, from which the lids are to be removed, is arranged within a guide support of a casing, within which the honeycomb is movable relative to the resilient tool, under pressure. The rows of bristles of the rotating brush preferably extend at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the brush body and are uniformly distributed across the surface of the brush body. This type of device can be part of a system for fully automatically removing lids from honeycombs, providing for the automatic feeding and discharging of honeycombs.
