Problems solved by technology

Moreover, these three-dimensional protective parts seem to be more complicated and the production cost is higher
In addition, they may also reduce the wearing comfort of the absorbent article in some way, and may make it more difficult for the caregiver to properly fit the article on the wearer

Embodiment Construction

[0015] "Diaper" as used herein refers to absorbent articles intended to be placed around the lower torso of the wearer, and includes infant (infant and toddler) diapers and adult diapers, and which Firmware for so-called diapers, and pant diapers.

[0016] As used herein, "front region" (A) and "rear region" (C) refer to the two regions which, in use, are closest to the front of the wearer and the rear of the wearer, respectively, which span the diaper or the diaper The transverse dimension of a portion or an element thereof such as elastic cuffs or a topsheet, and the longitudinal dimension of each zone is (exactly or about or approximately) one quarter the longitudinal dimension of the diaper or a diaper portion or element thereof such as an elastic cuff or topsheet one.

[0017] As used herein, "crotch region" (B) refers to the region positioned between the front region and the back region, the longitudinal dimension of which is also (exactly or approximately) the length o...

Abstract

The invention relates to an infant or adult diaper (10) comprising a topsheet (22), a backsheet (24), and an absorbent core (20) therebetween; and 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), between a front region (A) and a back region (C), and the first and second elastic cuff (30a, 30b) each have a crotch region (B'), 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 cuff (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 (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 cuff connector (10) comprises a cuff connector material, which:- has a transverse strain of about 0.8 at a first cycle extension force of about 1.0 N or less, as measured according to the in-use two-cycle hysteresis test; and- has about 30% set or less after having been extended to a transverse strain of about 0.8, as measured according to the in-use two-cycle hysteresis test; and is elastically extensible in the transverse direction to a strain of at least about 0.8, as measured according to the in-process two-cycle hysteresis test at 22 DEG C.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to diapers, including baby diapers, training pants, and adult incontinence articles with improved fit and leak protection, among others. In one aspect, the improved fit and leak protection are achieved with connectors connecting laterally opposed cuffs. Background technique [0002] Several diaper types have been proposed with features to improve the fit and / or reduce leakage of feces and urine from the diaper; reduce soiling of the genitals or other skin by feces; to further reduce the risk of skin irritation. For example, it has been proposed to have a diaper with a topsheet that includes an opening that provides access to the void space for collected faeces and urine; also has been proposed with two openings to receive urine in separate areas and excrement diapers; diapers with laterally positioned three-dimensional resilient barrier walls or barriers have also been proposed, which are placed in the center of the diap...
