  • the following operation is to ensure a sheet D 1 of the sheet for example outside of an assembly area 13 so as to put in the position of superposition, four assembly areas 13 to the opposite of the D 1 record and to whereof the solder 6 is made.
  • This weld 6 delimits with the backing D 1 the body 7 with three sleeves 3, 4, 5.
  • a second record around this weld 6 is made to fold the two flaps 20 against each other in the example shown.
  • the labeling sleeve 1 comprises a body 7 with three sleeves 3, 4, 5 made from three separate sheets. It should be noted that a labeling sleeve 1 can be obtained with a number of sleeves different from the number of constituent sheets, as can be seen from the example illustrated in FIGS. 7A to 7C.
  • the inner sleeves 3, external 4 and intermediate 5 are two in the illustrated example, are made by two plastic sheets 3A, 4A , at least one and in the example shown, the two sheets present each at least a width of about twice the perimeter of the container to form the body 7. It should be noted that one of the sheets may have a width less than twice the perimeter of the container. container. However, this sheet must have a width at least equal to that of the perimeter of the container.
  • the labeling sleeve 1 is made from two sheets 3A, 4A each having in the example shown, a width of the order of twice the perimeter of the container.
  • Each sheet 3A, 4A is provided with the adhesive 15 and precuts 9.
  • the sheets 3A, 4A in superimposed position undergo a dying operation D 1 , to fold the assembly into two equal parts ( Figure 7B ).
  • the assembly then undergoes a second registration D 2 so as to bring the free ends of the sheets above the back part D 1 .
  • a weld 6 is then made at the level of the backing D 1 to assemble together the backed part D 1 and the free ends of the sheets.
  • an outer sleeve 4 an inner sleeve 3 and two intermediate sleeves 5.
  • the inner sleeve 3 and the outer sleeve 4 are made by the same sheet namely 4A in the illustrated example. It should be noted that the other sheet 3A may have a width less than twice the perimeter of the container. In this case, it can be obtained either at least one flap, an intermediate sleeve or an intermediate sleeve extended by a flap.
  • one and / or the other of the sheets have widths greater than twice the perimeter of the container in order to obtain beyond the weld 6, flaps 20 as described herein. before and / or at least one additional body 7 .
  • each flap 20 extends beyond the body 7, and outside the body 7 so that each flap is folded over the body 7.
  • FIGS. 8 to 8C illustrate an exemplary embodiment in which two flaps 20 to a sheet extend between the inner sleeve 3 and the outer sleeve 4. In other words, the flaps 20 are located inside the body 7.
  • the labeling sleeve 1 is made from two sheets 3A, 4A each having a width greater than the perimeter of the container and (in the illustrated example, of the order 1.5 times the perimeter of the container) but less than twice the perimeter of the container.
  • One of the sheets 4A is provided with the adhesive 15 and the precut 9.
  • the two sheets 3A, 4A undergo a file D 1 to bend the free ends towards each other, that is to say inside the sheets 3A, 4A.
  • the sheets 3A, 4A are joined to each other by two assembly zones 13 located at each end of the assembly thus formed ( FIG 8B ).
  • the following operation consists in ensuring a sheet D 2 of the sheets 3A, 4A in two equal parts and in making a weld 6 opposite to the sheet D 2 so as to constitute the body 7 with two sleeves 3, 4 between which are placed the folded parts forming shutters 20.
