Abstract
A weblike package for suction tubes (1) comprising two straight tube parts (1a and 1b) which are joined flexibly by means of a bellows-folded, tubular intermediate part (1c). The package (2) comprises two flexible material webs which are joined to one another by repeated longitudinal and transversal sealing joints (6 and 7) which in pairs jointly form closed spaces (8) wherein suction tubes (1) are arranged. The suction tubes (1) are oriented straight with the free ends (1a' and 1b') of both their straight tube parts (1a and 1b) directed away from one another towards the longitudinal edges (5 and 5') of the material webs. Individual wrapped suction tubes (1) separated from the package are intended to be applied to the outside of a packing container with the longer straight tube part (1a) of the suction tube placed diagonally between opposite corners of the packing container, and with the shorter straight tube part (1a) of the suction tube bent parallel with the upper edge line of the packing container, and to make possible such an application of the wrapped suction tube without causing the surrounding envelope to burst the spaces (8) are provided with portions (8a, 8b and 8c) of mutually differing cross-sectional areas, the space portion (8a) in the region of, and closest to, the bellows-folded intermediate part (1c) having the largest cross-sectional area.
