Benefits of technology

[0009] By employing the above folding structure, it was possible to compactly fold disposable pants.

Problems solved by technology

In the case of a folding structure having parts with different thicknesses, the disposable pants of such a folding structure are inferior in handling ability when put in a package, leading the problems that good packaging is impossible and each package is not well self-organized.
Therefore, when a user desires to carry it when going out, the bulky profile is quite unfavorable.

Embodiment Construction

[0020] A folding structure of disposable pants according to the present invention will be explained below by reference to the drawings attached hereto. FIG. 1(a) shows disposable pants P before folded. The disposable pants P has a pants shape formed by providing an outer wear sheet 1 with a waist opening W and a leg opening S. To the circumferences of the waist opening W and the leg opening S, a waist elastic member 2 and a leg elastic member 3 are respectively added in an elongated state to give gathers. To each surface side of the outer wear sheet 1 contacting with wearer's skin, an absorbent main body 4 is adhered.

[0021] A crotch part 5 of the disposable pants is folded back along a line FL1 upward to give a shape as shown in FIG. 1(b) (first folding step). At this time, a length x3 of the crotch part 5 is desirably one third of the length (x1+x2+x3) from the lowermost end of the crotch part to a waist opening end of the disposable pants. Also a length x1 between an end line of ...

Abstract

There is provided a folding structure of disposable pants which includes an outer wear sheet of pants shape and an absorbent main body adhered to a skin-contacting surface side in the outer wear sheet, wherein elastic members are added at least to circumferences of a waist opening and a leg opening. The structure is formed by folding back a crotch part 5 of the disposable pants over a center pants part 7 on the upside of the crotch part, folding back a left lateral part 8 and a right lateral part 6 of the pants over the center pants part 7, respectively, and then folding back an upper pants part 9 in which the left and the right lateral parts of the pants are overlapped with each other, over a downside part 10 thereof.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to folding structures of disposable pants which are preformed into a pants shape, and more particularly, to folding structures of disposable pants which are suited for large adult-sized pants. BACKGROUND ART [0002]FIG. 8 is a front view of conventional disposable pants. In these disposable pants, to an outer wear sheet 50 formed into a pants shape by providing an waist opening W and leg openings S, S, there are added an waist elastic member 51, a leg elastic member 52, and a body fitting elastic member 53, and an absorbent main body 54 is adhered to a skin-contacting surface side. Longitudinal ends of the absorbent main body 54 contract toward the center of the pants through contraction force of the body fitting elastic member 53. In the right and left lateral side parts of the pants where the absorbent main body is not disposed, contraction force of the body fitting elastic member 53 gives gathers and provides fluffy condition.
