Abstract

L'invention concerne une toile de formation de feuille se présentant sous la forme d'un tissu multicouche. Ce tissu présente un rapport de seize fils longitudinaux, parmi lesquels quatre fils longitudinaux (11- 14) constituent des fils longitudinaux supérieurs, huit fils longitudinaux (31-38) constituent des fils longitudinaux inférieurs, et les quatre fils longitudinaux (21-24) restants forment deux paires de fils longitudinaux fonctionnelles qui sont composées chacune de deux fils longitudinaux juxtaposés et complètent alternativement la première armure, au moins un des quatre fils longitudinaux qui composent les deux paires de fils longitudinaux fonctionnelles s'étendant aussi bien dans la couche supérieure que dans la couche inférieure du tissu et reliant ainsi la couche supérieure du tissu à la couche inférieure du tissu.
