In some embodiments, a honeycomb uncapping device may include a support structure with a first uncapping roller and a second uncapping roller. The first uncapping roller may be rotatably coupled to the support structure and may have a plurality of projections that radiate away from the first uncapping roller. The second uncapping roller may be rotatably coupled to the support structure and may have a plurality of projections that radiate away from the second uncapping roller. A channel for receiving a honeycomb frame having a honeycomb may be formed between the first and second uncapping roller. A tensioning element may be coupled to the first and/or second uncapping roller. The tensioning element may tension the second uncapping roller towards the first uncapping roller to tension the first and second uncapping rollers into contact with opposing sides of the honeycomb as the honeycomb frame is moved through the channel.

A honey collection and extraction system includes a honey collection assembly including a housing, a helical honey frame, at least one top brood box, at least one bottom brood box, a first queen excluder, a second queen excluder and a plurality of gears; and honey extraction assembly including a helical body, a head attachment having a honeycomb cutting apparatus, an extraction pipe and a power source. The honey collection and extraction system is useful for providing improved honey collection means and a means for time efficient, no-mess honey extraction.

An apparatus for cutting honeycomb from a honey frame comprising a frame with an opening for inserting a honey frame and at least one blade supported by the frame. The at least one blade is adapted to pivot between a first position where a honey frame can be inserted into the opening and a second position where the blade will cut the honeycomb.
