Abstract (en)

This unidirectional valve for flexible packages, preferably made with laminar plastic materials is a valve made of sheet (3) attached to the external face of the package (2) with a window positioned to coincide with an orifice (5) in it, superimposed by another sheet (4) that covers its window (6) and is attached to the first (illegible) of two of its edges, with the transversal edges unattached, and forming a channel for gases to escape, when the internal overpressure separates the exterior sheet from the perforated wall, which in (the) passive position is closed by said sheet (4) under external atmospheric pressure, guaranteeing the escape of gases generated by the product and preventing the destructive entry of outside air. <IMAGE>
