The containers to be transported are divided into multiple groups by dividing them in the transport direction, and in the same group, after heating the adhesive parts of the ears with a heater, all the ears in the group are batched. Since it can be pressed against the container body, it is possible to reliably and evenly adhere the ears to the container body for each group.
