ABSTRACT:
Device for making comb honey includes sections arrangeable in a super. The section combines into a single unit a number of presently used separate components, namely the section perimeter, the foundation, spacing elements, the separator, the package, and a serving dish. A comb forming section is provided with the foundation at the bottom thereof and portions cooperating with an adjacent section to effect appropriate spacing of same. In one embodiment, the foundation is backed by a suitably sloped bottom wall for cooperation with an adjacently positioned section and projecting portions at the bottom of the section engage the top of the adjacent section to effect such spacing. In another embodiment, the foundation may lie flat and projecting portions at the top of one section engage the bottom of the adjacent section to effect such spacing. A cover removably fits over the top of a section to form a closed container for marketing. The cover and section may each have a pair of aligned notches in opposite side walls. In an embodiment, the cover and section are locatable in the super with their notches mutually aligned for bee entry into the section and, on removal from the super, the cover is repositionable on the section so the notches in each are blinded by unnotched side portions of the other.
