PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a beekeeping comb foundation in which the bottom parts of cells can be formed as thin as possible to reduce usage of beeswax, thereby improving the growth promotion function of larvae.SOLUTION: A beekeeping comb foundation has regular hexagonal cells 10 that are in a relationship disposed by shifting the phase in a plan view at the side of one surface 4 and the side of the other surface 5, respectively. Each cell 10 is constituted by including frames 12 comprising six frame simple bodies 11 provided along regular hexagonal contours 6 and shared with the adjacent cell 10, and bottom parts 13 continuing to the frames 11. The bottom parts 13 of the cell 10 at the side of the one surface 4 are constituted of three frame simple bodies 11 at the side of the other surface 5, and the bottom parts 12 of the cell 10 at the side of the other surface 5 are constituted of three frame simple bodies 11 at the side of the one surface 4. The bottom parts 13 of each cell 10 are formed with three through-holes 14 that becomes a diamond shape in a plan view, and The sides of the back sides 15 of the frame simple bodies 11 constituting the bottom parts 13 of each cell 10 are inclined and formed in the downward direction toward the center point P of the cell 10.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】 セルの底部をできるだけ薄く形成できるようにして、蜜蝋の使用量を減らし、幼虫の成長促進機能の向上を図る。【解決手段】 一方面4側及び他方面5側に夫々平面から見て正六角形のセル10が位相をずらせて配置された関係にあり、各セル10を、正六角形の輪郭線6に沿って設けられ隣接するセル10と共用される6つのフレーム単体11からなるフレーム12と、フレーム11に連続する底部13とを備えて構成し、一方面4側のセル10の底部13を他方面5側の3つのフレーム単体11で構成し、他方面5側のセル10の底部12を一方面4側の3つのフレーム単体11で構成し、各セル10の底部13に平面から見て菱形状になる3つの貫通孔14を形成し、各セル10の底部13を構成するフレーム単体11の裏面15側をセル10の中心点Pに向けて下向きに傾斜形成した。【選択図】 図4
