Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hygiene products technology, specifically to a light incontinence towel. Background Technology

[0002] Mild urinary incontinence is more common in middle-aged and elderly people and postpartum women. Under conditions of increased intra-abdominal pressure, urine leaks uncontrollably from the urethra, causing odor and dampness, thus affecting daily life. Mild urinary incontinence pads are disposable absorbent hygiene products designed for individuals with mild urinary incontinence. The core is primarily composed of wood pulp and highly absorbent polymers for urine. They are used like sanitary napkins, placed under underwear. Mild urinary incontinence pads are lightweight, unobtrusive, and portable, unlike the bulky adult diapers, making them suitable for individuals experiencing mild urinary incontinence.

[0003] To prevent side leakage, existing incontinence pads typically have strip-shaped, three-dimensional guards on both sides of their upper surface to prevent urine from leaking out from the sides. However, during testing, we discovered some problems. First, because urine differs from menstrual blood, it has almost no viscosity and flows relatively quickly. When the instantaneous flow of urine is too large, the rapid flow makes it difficult to absorb quickly, causing urine to easily rush to the front of the pad, leading to front leakage. Urine leakage can also produce an unpleasant odor, potentially causing a lack of self-confidence among those with mild incontinence, affecting their normal life and social interactions, and even causing psychological stress. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention provides a lightweight incontinence pad to solve the technical problem in the prior art where lightweight incontinence pads are prone to leakage when the amount of urine is large.

[0005] To solve the above problems, the incontinence towel provided by this utility model adopts the following technical solution: an absorbent body extending in the front-back direction, a surface layer disposed on the upper surface of the absorbent body that contacts the skin, and a back layer disposed on the lower surface of the absorbent body;

[0006] The absorber has a large fan-shaped head at the front end that matches the front part of the female private parts. When in use, the large fan-shaped head forms a funnel shape between itself and the skin, which buffers the urine and concentrates the urine to the absorber for absorption, thus preventing leakage.

[0007] As a further improvement, the large fan head is fan-shaped or arc-shaped.

[0008] As a further improvement, the absorbent is divided into two parts along its length to form a front half and a rear half. The front half of the absorbent is provided with a fan-shaped ring for guiding and absorbing urine, and the fan-shaped ring is located between the back layer and the absorbent.

[0009] As a further improvement, the shape of the fan head ring is the same as that of the large fan head.

[0010] As a further improvement, the fan-shaped ring is an absorbent layer containing polymers.

[0011] As a further improvement, the fan head ring is a dust-free paper fan head ring.

[0012] As a further improvement, the fan head ring is filled with superabsorbent polymer resin.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. This utility model features a large fan-shaped head on the front of the absorbent body, conforming to ergonomics. The large fan-shaped head matches the shape of the front of the female genitalia, providing better coverage during use. During use, the large fan-shaped head forms a funnel shape between itself and the user's skin, buffering the urine and channeling it to the absorbent body for rapid absorption, thus reducing leakage caused by excessive instantaneous urine flow.

[0015] 2. By setting up a fan-shaped head ring, the urine absorption speed can be improved. The fan-shaped head ring is made of dust-free paper with a relatively low denier fiber material, which can better allow urine to penetrate downwards. At the same time, the fan-shaped head ring contains a small amount of superabsorbent polymer resin, which can quickly absorb the urine that has penetrated downwards.

[0016] 3. The large fan head is only set on the front side, which reduces costs while providing a better covering effect. When urine flows out, it mainly flows to the front side. Therefore, the fan head ring is only set in the front half of the absorbent body, which can quickly absorb the urine flowing out from the front side, while reducing material usage and waste, thereby reducing production costs.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments described below are only some, not all, of the embodiments disclosed. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0025] To prevent urine leakage, existing incontinence pads, similar to sanitary napkins, feature a three-dimensional protective barrier to prevent side leakage. However, because urine differs from menstrual blood—it has almost no viscosity—and patients with mild incontinence cannot control the flow of urine, when the flow is large, its fluidity is even greater, making it prone to front leakage.

[0026] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention features a large, arc-shaped fan-shaped structure on the front of the incontinence pad, along with a fan-shaped ring. The large fan-shaped structure is ergonomically designed, conforming to the shape of the front of the female genitalia, providing better coverage during use. The large fan-shaped structure forms a funnel shape between the large fan-shaped structure and the skin; when a large volume of urine flows forward, the large fan-shaped structure buffers the urine and directs it to the absorbent core for absorption, significantly reducing leakage.

[0027] The fan-shaped ring located below the absorbent has a relatively lower denier fiber material, which can guide urine downwards to accelerate urine absorption and reduce pre-leakage.

[0028] After introducing the basic principles of this utility model, various non-limiting embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Any quantity of elements in the accompanying drawings is for illustrative purposes only and not for limitation, and any naming is for distinction only and has no limiting meaning.

[0029] The principles and spirit of this utility model will be explained in detail below with reference to several representative embodiments.

[0030] Example 1 of the incontinence towel provided by this utility model:

[0031] like Figures 1-4As shown, the absorbent body 1 extends in the front-to-back direction, a surface layer disposed on the upper surface of the absorbent body 1 that contacts the skin, and a back layer disposed on the lower surface of the absorbent body 1 (the surface layer and the back layer are not labeled in the figure). In this embodiment, the absorbent body 1 includes a cotton core and an upper layer of toilet paper and a lower layer of toilet paper disposed on the upper and lower surfaces of the cotton core, respectively. The cotton core is filled with superabsorbent polymer resin. The surface layer is a 3D nonwoven fabric, which is made of two layers of hot-air nonwoven fabric. The back layer is a bottom film, which is made of water-repellent nonwoven fabric.

[0032] The absorber 1 has a large fan-shaped head 2 integrally formed at the front end that fits into the front part of the female private parts, so that when in use, the large fan-shaped head 2 forms a funnel shape between itself and the skin (see funnel-shaped structure for reference). Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in the figure, during use, the large fan head covers the user's skin on both sides. The opening at the top of the large fan head is relatively large, forming a funnel-shaped structure, which buffers the urine and concentrates it to the absorbent body 1 for absorption, preventing leakage. In this embodiment, the large fan head 2 is arc-shaped. In other embodiments, the large fan head 2 can also adopt a fan shape or fan arc shape that conforms to the human body. The absorbent body 1 also has integrally formed protective wings on both sides.

[0033] In this embodiment, a non-woven fabric surface layer, a blue cotton layer for diversion, and a conductive layer for urine conduction are also provided between the surface layer and the absorbent body 1. The denier of the blue cotton fiber raw material is lower than that of the diversion layer fiber raw material, that is, the blue cotton fiber is finer than the conductive layer fiber. A fan-shaped ring 3 is provided between the absorbent body 1 and the back layer to accelerate the downward penetration of urine. The conventional structure of light incontinence napkins, such as the outer circumferential seal and release paper, will not be described in detail here.

[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, the absorbent body 1 is divided into two halves along its length to form a front half and a rear half. The fan-shaped ring 3 is located below the front half of the absorbent body 1. The shape of the fan-shaped ring 3 is the same as that of the large fan head 2. The fan-shaped ring 3 is an absorbent layer containing a polymer absorbent material. In this embodiment, the fan-shaped ring 3 is made of dust-free paper and is filled with a polymer absorbent resin. Since the absorbent body 1 is the main absorbent for urine, the main function of the fan-shaped ring 3 is to guide the urine downward to accelerate urine absorption and absorb some of the urine that seeps out from the absorbent body 1. Therefore, the fan-shaped ring 3 only needs to be filled with a small amount of polymer absorbent resin.

[0035] In addition to absorbing water, superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) also inhibit bacterial growth and reduce odor. Urine flowing onto the product creates a warm and humid environment conducive to bacterial growth, resulting in odor. Urine also contains odor sources such as ammonia. This invention incorporates SAPs (other functional additives can also be added to achieve the same function), and the large fan head reduces urine leakage. Together, these factors minimize odor. Mild urinary incontinence leads to a lack of self-confidence, affecting normal life and social interactions, and even causing psychological stress. Based on Maslow's hierarchy of needs, this invention satisfies the social and esteem needs of individuals with mild urinary incontinence.

[0036] The existing product has the same size of absorbent layer as the absorbent body above it. However, tests have shown that due to the three-dimensional protective barrier, leakage mainly occurs on the front side. When urine seeps backward, it is mainly absorbed by the absorbent body, resulting in poor utilization of the rear part of the absorbent layer.

[0037] Therefore, in this invention, the original larger absorbent layer is replaced with a fan-shaped ring 3. The large fan head 2 and the fan-shaped ring 3 are only installed in the front half of the incontinence towel, which can effectively reduce pre-leakage of urine, reduce material usage, and lower production costs. Calculations show that after replacing it with the fan-shaped ring 3, the material usage of the absorbent layer can be reduced by more than 40%.

[0038] While this specification has shown and described numerous embodiments of the present invention, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that such embodiments are provided by way of example only. Many modifications, alterations, and alternatives will occur to those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and intent of the present invention. It should be understood that various alternatives to the embodiments of the present invention described herein may be employed in the practice of the present invention. The appended claims are intended to define the scope of protection of the present invention and therefore cover the modular compositions, equivalents, or alternatives within the scope of these claims.
