Batten and small frame for bee keeping produced with such battens

摘要

A batten for producing small frames for bee keeping is provided with a plurality of perforations, arranged in a row extending in the longitudinal direction of the batten, for the introduction of retaining wire for fixing middle walls to the frame. In order to prevent the retaining wire on a frame produced from such battens from being damaged when the frame is cleaned, a continuous or discontinuous grooving is provided on the outer longitudinal side of the battens of the frame, which are provided with the perforations, extending in the alignment of the perforations, for the recessed reception of sections of the retaining wire.
