Abstract

The invention relates to an infant or adult diaper (10) comprising a topsheet (22), a backsheet (24) and there between an absorbent core (20), a first and a second longitudinally extending elastic cuff (30a, 30b), the first and the second elastic cuff (30a, 30b) being positioned on either longitudinal side of the topsheet (22) and opposing each other. The diaper (10) has a crotch region (B), positioned in between a front region (A) and a back region (C) and the first and the second elastic cuff (30a, 30b) each have a crotch region (B'), positioned in between a front region (A') and a back region (C), these regions (A', B', C') being generally positioned in or adjacent to the respective regions (A, B, C) of the diaper (10). The first and the second elastic cuffs (30a, 30b) each have a proximal edge (32), attached to the diaper and a distal edge (34), at least the crotch region (B') of which is not attached to the diaper (10) and forms a free flap (38a, 38b). The diaper (10) comprises a cuff connector (70) being attached to both the first and the second elastic cuff (30a, 30b), the cuff connector (70) extending in a generally transverse direction and being able to extert a force between the first and the second elastic cuff (30a, 30b), the force having a direction from one free flap (38a) of elastic cuff (30a) towards the other free flap (38b) of elastic cuff (30b).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to diapers, including baby diapers, training pants, and adult incontinence products, among others, having improved fit and leak protection. In one aspect, the improved fit and leak protection are achieved with connectors connecting laterally opposed cuffs.
