Date Apr. 16, 1998The invention relates to a method of marking an article by transfer from a sleeve of heat-shrink plastics material which is shrunken on the article. According to the method, a transferable element (30) whose free face is coated in a layer (33) of reactivatable adhesive, together with an integrated circuit (40) on said layer, is placed on the inside surface (25) of the film constituting the sleeve (20), after which the sleeve (20) fitted in this way is engaged on the article (10) and is heated so as to shrink said sleeve and press said transferable element together with its integrated circuit onto the facing wall of the article (10), and the adhesive of the layer (33) of reactivatable adhesive is reactivated so that the transferable element (30) adheres to the article (10) and presses the associated integrated circuit (40) against the wall of said article. The invention also provides a sleeve (20) specially designed to implement the above method, having an inside face which includes a transferable element (30) with its free face coated in a layer of reactivatable adhesive and with an integrated circuit on said layer. |
