Abstract
Abstract A package includes an upper wall, a lower wall and two side folds provided with folds. A tearable flap is provided at a filling opening of the package. The flap is provided with two suspension openings spaced from each other. The packages are produced from a web of synthetic thermoplastic foil which is formed into an envelope open at one longitudinal edge and side folds are thereafter formed on the envelope which is then weld-sealed at its open edge.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
167 words
A method of manufacturing a tearable package of synthetic thermoplastic film, comprising the steps of providing semi-hose having two longitudinal edges of which one of the longitudinal edges is initially closed and the other of the longitudinal edges is initially open, upper and lower walls and plural folds provided at each of said longitudinal edges and connecting said upper and lower walls; moving said semi-hose over a cutting support extending laterally through said open edge; cutting one of said upper and lower walls and said plural folds by a cutting tool by using a cutting tool having a first blade and a second blade extending transversely to said longitudinal edges and being interconnected at one end averted from said open edge by a third blade extending in parallel to said longitudinal edges, so that said one wall become longer than the other wall and said plural folds and forms a flap; and connecting said upper and lower walls with one another so as to form a bottom.

Claim 3
Independent Claim
151 words
A device for producing a package of synthetic thermoplastic foil from a semi-hose having two longitudinal edges of which one of the longitudinal edges is initially closed and the other of the longitudinal edges is initially open, upper and lower walls, and side folds at each of the longitudinal edges connecting the upper and lower walls, the device comprising cutting means for cutting one of said upper and lower walls and said plural folds and including a cutting tool having a first blade and a second blade extending transversely to said longitudinal edges and interconnected at one end averted from said open edge by a third blade extending in parallel to said longitudinal edges, so that said one wall becomes longer than the other wall and said plural folds and forms a flap; and means for connecting said upper and lower walls with one another so as to form a bottom.
