What is claimed is: 1. An adjustable board storage frame with two upright side plates placed opposite to each other and between a top plate and a base plate that are placed with a certain space therebetween, one of the side plates being a fixed side plate and the other side plate being a movable side plate that can be moved remaining parallel with the fixed side plate and fixed at a desired position, the adjustable board storage frame comprising: pinions located near the four corners of the movable side plate, the pinions rotating together; guide rails located on the inside surfaces of the top plate and the base plate so that the guide rails are placed substantially perpendicular to the fixed side plate, the guide rails having racks to engage with the respective pinions; bosses protruding from near the positions on the movable side plate where the respective pinions are located; grooves that are formed near the positions in the top plate and the base plate where the fixed side plate is placed, and to which the respective bosses can be inserted; and connection paths that are formed in the top plate and the base plate along the respective guide rails and connected to the respective grooves, and through which the bosses pass when the movable side plate is moved. 2. The adjustable board storage frame according to claim 1, wherein inclined surfaces that gradually protrude from the movable side plate side toward the fixed side plate side and guide the bosses to the grooves are formed near the grooves where the movable side plate is placed. 3. A method for assembling an adjustable board storage frame with two upright side plates placed opposite to each other and between a top plate and a base plate that are placed with a certain space therebetween, one of the side plates being a fixed side plate and the other side plate being a movable side plate that can be moved remaining parallel with the fixed side plate and fixed at a desired position, the adjustable board storage frame comprising: pinions located near the four corners of the movable side plate, the pinions rotating together; guide rails located on the inside surfaces of the top plate and the base plate so that the guide rails are placed substantially perpendicular to the fixed side plate, the guide rails having racks to engage with the respective pinions; bosses protruding from near the positions on the movable side plate where the respective pinions are located; grooves that are formed near the positions in the top plate and the base plate where the fixed side plate is placed, and to which the respective bosses can be inserted; and connection paths that are formed in the top plate and the base plate along the respective guide rails and connected to the respective grooves, and through which the bosses pass when the movable side plate is moved; the assembly method comprising the steps of: setting the fixed side plate upright on the base plate; inserting the bosses formed at the end of the movable side plate on its base plate side, respectively into the grooves in the base plate on which the fixed side plate is set upright, setting the movable side plate upright on the base plate, and placing the movable side plate in parallel with the fixed side plate; pushing down the movable side plate in a direction away from the fixed side plate, using the base plate side of the movable side plate as a supporting point with the bosses being inserted in the grooves; mounting the top plate on the fixed side plate with the movable side plate being left pushed down; after mounting the top plate, raising the movable side plate, inserting the bosses formed at the end of the movable side plate on its top plate side into the grooves in the top plate, and placing the movable side plate in parallel with the fixed side plate; and having the bosses respectively inserted in the grooves pass through the respective connection paths, moving the movable side plate relative to the fixed side plate, and stopping the movable side plate at a desired position. 4. The adjustable board storage frame assembly method according to claim 3, wherein inclined surfaces that gradually protrude from the movable side plate side toward the fixed side plate side are formed at least near the grooves in the top plate where the movable side plate is placed, and wherein the assembly method further comprises the step of, when raising the movable side plate and inserting the bosses formed at the end of the movable side plate on its top plate side into the grooves in the top plate, moving the bosses along the inclined surfaces and inserting them into the respective grooves. 5. The adjustable board storage frame according to claim 1 or 2, wherein through-holes extending in parallel with the respective guide rails are formed in the top plate and the base plate, and fixing mechanisms that pass through the respective through-holes, hold the top plate or the base plate tightly with pressure applied from both its front and back sides, and thereby fix the movable side plate to the top plate and the base plate are formed on the movable side plate. 6. The adjustable board storage frame according to claim 5, wherein each of the fixing mechanisms includes: a tension rod that passes through the through-hole, can be moved in the passing-through direction, and has an engagement part at one end of the tension rod for engaging with the top plate or the base plate; a lock lever having a cam that is located at the other end of the tension rod and connected to the tension rod so that the cam can rotate relative to the tension rod, the rotation of the cam causing the tension rod to move in the passing-through direction; and a force-applying member for applying force to the tension rod to move the engagement part of the tension rod away from the top plate or the base plate. 7. The adjustable board storage frame according to claim 6, wherein the tension rod protrudes from the movable side plate to have a height that allows a space to be formed between the pinion and the corresponding rack to engage with the pinion in the state where the top plate or the base plate is not held tightly by the fixing mechanism. 8. The adjustable board storage frame assembly method according to claim 3 or 4, wherein through-holes extending in parallel with the respective guide rails are formed in the top plate and the base plate, and The assembly method further comprises the step of using fixing members that are formed on the movable side plate and pass through the through-holes respectively, to hold the top plate or the base plate tightly with pressure applied from both its front and back sides, thereby fixing the movable side plate at a desired position. 9. The adjustable board storage frame assembly method according to claim 8, wherein each of the fixing members includes: a tension rod that passes through the through-hole, can be moved in the passing-through direction, and has an engagement part at one end of the tension rod for engaging with the top plate or the base plate; a lock lever having a cam that is located at the other end of the tension rod and connected to the tension rod so that the cam can rotate relative to the tension rod, the rotation of the cam causing the tension rod to move in the passing-through direction; and a force-applying member for applying force to the tension rod to move the engagement part of the tension rod away from the top plate or the base plate; and wherein the assembly method further comprises the step of, when raising the movable side plate, using the force applied by the force-applying member to have the engagement member come into contact with the top plate. 10. The adjustable board storage frame assembly method according to claim 9, wherein the tension rod protrudes from the movable side plate to have a height that allows a space to be formed between the pinion and the corresponding rack to engage with the pinion in the state where the top plate or the base plate is not held tightly by the fixing member; and wherein the assembly method further comprises the step of, when raising the movable side plate, using the force applied by the force-applying member to have the engagement part come into contact with the top plate and forming a space between the pinion and the corresponding rack to engage with the pinion.
