Embodiment Construction

[0034] In this specification, the following terms have the following meanings:

[0035] "Absorbent article" means a device that absorbs and contains fluids, and more specifically, means a device that is placed next to or adjacent to the body of the wearer for absorbing and containing various exudates discharged from the body.

[0036] The term "diaper" refers to an absorbent article generally worn by infants and incontinent persons about the lower torso and in particular adapted to receive and contain urine and faeces.

[0037] The term "disposable" refers to the nature of absorbent articles that are generally not intended to be laundered or otherwise not restored or used as an absorbent article, i.e. they are intended to be used once and then discarded, preferably recycled, composted or in other environmentally compatible ways.

[0038] The term "longitudinal" refers to a direction extending from one waist edge of an article to the opposite waist edge and generally parallel ...

Abstract

A disposable absorbent article includes a chassis and an absorbent assembly and is adapted to be configured as a loincloth diaper for use in combination with a support element that is worn around the waist of the wearer. The chassis has fastening elements for use in forming laterally extending tunnels adjacent to the waist edges through which the support element extends. The chassis includes a water-impermeable backsheet that may be folded laterally inward at both of its side edges to form opposing side flaps. Each side flap is attached to the interior surface of the chassis adjacent to its end edges. Each side flap has a longitudinally extending elastic gathering member attached adjacent to its proximal edge. The chassis may include an extensible formed web material. The absorbent assembly may be attached in a cruciform pattern to the chassis to allow unattached portions of the chassis to extend laterally.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to disposable absorbent articles, such as disposable diapers and other articles intended for incontinent patients. Background technique [0002] Disposable absorbent articles are used to absorb and contain body exudates to prevent soiling of the wearer's body, clothing and bedding or other articles in contact with the wearer. As the use of disposable absorbent articles increases, their complexity increases as additional functionality is incorporated to enhance their performance and appearance. As complexity increases, so does the cost of materials and the cost of the production process. As a result, the selling prices of these articles have risen to levels unaffordable to many potential purchasers around the world. Therefore, there is a need for an easy disposable absorbent article. Contents of the invention [0003] The disposable absorbent article includes a chassis and an absorbent assembly and is adapted to be a l...
