In May 1852, August von Berlepsch in Germany designed a movable frame. [2] On October 5, 1852, in the United States, L. L. Langstroth patented a new hive with movable frames under US patent # US9300A. [3] [4] Today, the Langstroth hive is the most common design in many parts of the world. In the UK the national hive is more commonly used.
Other inventors, notably François Huber in 1789, had designed hives with frames (the so-called leafe or book hive), [3] but Langstroth's hive was a practical, movable frame hive, which overcame the tendency of the bees to fill empty spaces with comb and to cement smaller spaces together with propolis.
The Leaf Hive, invented in Switzerland in 1789 by François Huber, was a fully movable frame hive, but had solid frames that were touching and made up the "box." The combs in this hive were examined like pages in a book. Langstroth read the works of Francois Huber and Edward Bevan and obtained a Huber leaf hive in 1838.

The movable frames of modern hives are considered to have been developed from the traditional basket top bar (movable comb) hives of Greece, which allowed the beekeeper to avoid killing the bees. [29] The oldest evidence of their use dates to 1669, although it is probable their use is more than 3,000 years old. [30]
