造段階にJ3いて装着されている。[Prior Art and Problems] Current packaging membranes often use tape bands or other tamper-evident seals around the lids of packaged goods to prevent consumption if the container is ruptured or contaminated before use. This allows the person to be confirmed. Such tamper-evident seals are particularly advantageous for use in containers such as those for food storage. Examples of such seals and devices used to apply the seals to containers include Donnay, US Pat. No. 3,873,018. With this device, an additional station is provided on the production line to stretch the tape band after placing the lid on the container between the container lid and each container body. Thus, tamper-evident seals for containers are conventionally installed at a separate manufacturing step following assembly of each container.
