Abstract

A frame for receiving photographs, calligraphy or the like has a core panel using a lightweight board as the core material and a sheet-like cover circumferentially covering the outer periphery of the core panel. A cutout portion for insertion, through which a photograph or the like is inserted from a side, is provided in a front face of the covering sheet such that one side of the cutout portion is in contact with an edge of the lightweight board. On the sheet-like cover are provided parallel creases used for the circumferential covering and cover-fixing member for detachably fixing the covering state. A cutout window slightly smaller than a work piece is provided in a front face of the sheet-like cover. The front face of the sheet-like cover is laid over and united with the front face of the core panel.

1 . A frame characterized by comprising a structure assembled with a thick sheet-like material made of plastic or paper and a lightweight board incorporating honeycomb-like structure, the assembled structure being a combination of a thick rectangular core panel A and a sheet-like cover B which covers around the outer surface of the core panel A, the core panel A having a core lightweight board  1  to be covered around with a thick covering sheet  2 , therein a cutout  3  is provided on a front face  2   a  and one side of the cutout  3  is connected to one edge of the lightweight board  1  so that a photograph, painting, calligraphy or the like can be inserted into the front face  2   a,  the sheet-like cover B comprising four parallel creases a which make it easy to fold and cover around the aforementioned core panel A, a cover fixing means to freely fix the covering condition and a cutout window  12  which is slightly smaller than the size of the aforementioned objects to be placed on a front face  11 .  
   
   
       2 . A frame of  claim 1  characterized in that the front face  11  of the sheet-like cover B is overlapped on the front face  2   a  of the core panel A.  
   
   
       3 . A frame of  claim 1  characterized in that rear panels  14 ,  14  are symmetrically provided on both sides of the front face  11  of the sheet-like cover B and as a cover fixing means, a plurality of projections  15  are provided on one end of a rear face member  14  and a plurality of cut portions  16  are also provided on the other end of the other rear face member  14  so that the core panel A can be covered with the sheet-like cover B.  
   
   
       4 . A frame of  claim 3  characterized in that each facing edge of the projections  15  and cut portions  16  are preferably cut down slantwise so that the connection face forms an undercut slope b.  
   
   
       5 . A frame of  claim 1  characterized in that a plurality of pull-up hooks  18  for hanging the frame on the wall are preferably provided on a certain area of the rear face member  14  of the sheet-like cover B.  
   
   
       6 . A frame of  claim 1  characterized in that an insertion board C is inserted into an insertion slit  3   a  of the cutout portion  3  and a photograph or other objects can be attached on the insertion board C.
