The gadget (frame) pictured at you site is called a "No Swarm Cluster
Frame" I have a set of these I purchased about 18 - 20 yrs. ago. The idea
or priciple of it is to supply clustering space in the brood chambers and
help eliminate congestion (one of the main causes of swarming). It
provides extra space for clustering bees in the brood chamber without
violating the "bee space". There is no propalizing or burr comb building.
