Claims (12)

  1. Emballage flexible (14 ; 114) comprenant une ou plusieurs longueurs de matériau flexible (16 ; 116) agencées pour définir une cavité interne fermée au moyen d'un ou de plusieurs joints (18, 22, 24 ; 170, 172) dans laquelle des régions opposées du matériau sont liées ensemble, l'emballage ayant des portions de languette opposées (32 ; 132) dans lesquelles le matériau n'est pas lié à une région opposée de matériau associé à un desdits joints (22 ; 172), le matériau ayant des caractéristiques de déchirure directionnelles et étant orienté de manière à se déchirer de préférence dans une direction sensiblement orthogonale à la direction dudit joint (22 ; 172) avec lequel les portions de languette (32 ; 132) sont associées ; dans lequel ledit joint (22 ; 172) est un joint décollable et en ce qu'une région de languette (30 ; 132) est définie à l'intérieur dudit joint, les régions opposées de matériau à l'intérieur de la région de languette étant liées ensemble uniquement sur une étendue interne (34) dudit joint (22 ; 172), tandis que les régions opposées de matériau à l'intérieur de la région de languette (30 ; 132) mais à l'extérieur de l'étendue interne (34) ne sont pas liées ensemble afin de définir au moins partiellement les portions de languette opposées (32 ; 132) ; caractérisé en ce que le matériau (16 ; 116) se compose exclusivement d'une seule couche de film de polypropylène orienté mono-axialement.
  2. Emballage flexible (14 ; 114) selon la revendication 1, dans lequel au moins l'extrémité externe (36) de la ou de chaque portion de languette (32 ; 132) fait saillie au-delà d'une extrémité externe du reste dudit joint (22 ; 172).
  3. Emballage flexible (14 ; 114) selon la revendication 1 ou la revendication 2, dans lequel les portions de languette (32 ; 132) s'étendent dans une direction sensiblement orthogonale à la direction dudit joint (22 ; 172).
  4. Emballage flexible (14 ; 114) selon l'une quelconque des revendications précédentes, dans lequel ledit joint (22 ; 172) est un joint transversal fermant une extrémité de l'emballage et le matériau est orienté pour se déchirer de préférence dans une direction longitudinale.

  6. Emballage flexible (14) selon la revendication 5, dans lequel des régions de bord latéral opposées du matériau (16) sont liées ensemble afin de former un joint longitudinal (18) et des régions d'extrémité opposées du matériau sont liées ensemble pour former des joints transversaux (22, 24) au niveau de chaque extrémité de l'emballage, les portions de languette (32 ; 132) étant associées à l'un des joints d'extrémité transversaux (22) et le matériau étant orienté de manière à se déchirer de préférence dans une direction longitudinale de l'emballage.
  7. Emballage flexible (114) selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 6, dans lequel l'emballage se trouve sous la forme d'un sac ou d'une pochette fermé(e) au niveau d'une extrémité supérieure au moyen d'une tête scellée (172), les portions de languette (32 ; 132) étant associées à la tête scellée (172).
