Abstract (en)

Applicator mechanism for fitting a sleeve (10) to at least one moving bottle (B) comprises supply means (44) holding collapsed sleeves, erecting means (WD) sequentially to bring each sleeve into a set-up condition, transfer means (96-104) to effect downward transfer of the set-up sleeve towards said article to be sleeved and applicator means (106-112) for fitting the sleeve around the article. The applicator means is operable to execute both a downward and forward motion to the sleeve such that the forward motion of the sleeve substantially is synchronized with that of the article during fitment of the sleeve thereto.
