Abstract
An opening of a flexible container is closed by a pull-tab. The wall curves when the pull-tab is applied thereto. The pull-tab follows the curving wall in the curve direction. A device for applying the pull-tab to the wall and/or a device for adhering the pull-tab to the wall are so constructed that they adapt to the changing form of the curving wall.
