  We present intersection type systems in the style of sequent calculus,
modifying the systems that Valentini introduced to prove normalisation
properties without using the reducibility method. Our systems are more natural
than Valentini's ones and equivalent to the usual natural deduction style
systems. We prove the characterisation theorems of strong and weak
normalisation through the proposed systems, and, moreover, the approximation
theorem by means of direct inductive arguments. This provides in a uniform way
proofs of the normalisation and approximation theorems via type systems in
sequent calculus style.
