Breast pad and use method thereof

Abstract

The breast pad comprises a front absorption pad and a rear absorption pad which are adjacently arranged, the bottoms of the front absorption pad and the rear absorption pad are connected, a through hole is formed in the position adjacent to the middle of the front absorption pad, and glue is arranged on the outer side face of the front absorption pad. Due to the fact that the bottoms of the front absorption pad and the rear absorption pad are connected, milk can be prevented from overflowing downwards in the using process, and the front absorption pad is pasted on the breast in the using process. During use, a water containing pocket is formed at the bottom of the front absorption pad and the bottom of the rear absorption pad, so that after the front absorption pad and the rear absorption pad absorb water to be saturated, the water containing pocket continues to receive emulsion, and overflow is avoided.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of disposable hygiene products technology, specifically relating to a convenient-to-wear breast pad and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] Breast pads are common products for breastfeeding women, used to absorb leaked breast milk during non-feeding periods to facilitate daily life and work. Existing breast pads consist of a top sheet (usually made of water-permeable non-woven fabric), an absorbent layer, and a bottom sheet, stacked in sequence. The outer edges of the top and bottom sheets are joined together to wrap around the absorbent layer and form a package. The bottom sheet is made of water-repellent non-woven fabric. Release adhesive is provided on the outer surface of the water-repellent non-woven fabric. In use, the release paper of the release adhesive is peeled off, and the bottom sheet of the breast pad is adhered to the inside of the bra or underwear. Its drawback is that the position of the breast pad is often inaccurate, causing the center of the top sheet to misalign with the user's nipple, requiring multiple adjustments.

[0003] To address the above issues and facilitate product use, an improved version of the existing breast pad has been developed. Based on the previous version, adhesive is applied to the inner edges of the top panel, and a release liner is placed over this adhesive. To use, the release liner is peeled off, and the top panel is adhered to the front of the user's breast using the adhesive, with the nipple roughly in the center. However, this version has a drawback: breast milk tends to seep down. When the absorbent layer at the bottom is nearly saturated, unabsorbed milk flows through the adhesive at the bottom of the top panel, causing it to lose its effectiveness. This leads to the bottom of the top panel detaching from the user's skin, allowing the milk to continue flowing downwards (i.e., milk spillage), staining the user's clothing and causing inconvenience.

[0004] How to further improve the improved breast pad to prevent milk from leaking downwards is a technical problem to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a breast pad that is easy to wear and prevents breast milk from leaking downwards, as well as a method of using it.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a breast pad comprising a front absorbent pad and a rear absorbent pad arranged adjacent to each other, with the bottoms of the front and rear absorbent pads connected. A through hole is provided in the middle of the front absorbent pad, and adhesive is provided on the outer surface of the front absorbent pad, with a release paper covering the adhesive. Because the bottoms of the front and rear absorbent pads are connected, breast milk leakage is prevented during use.

[0007] A preferred embodiment is that, in order to simplify the structure and facilitate product manufacturing, the front and rear absorbent pads are formed by folding a single absorbent sheet in half. The absorbent sheet includes a permeable nonwoven fabric, a water-absorbing material layer, and a water-repellent nonwoven fabric stacked in sequence. The four perimeters of the permeable nonwoven fabric and the water-repellent nonwoven fabric are combined to wrap the water-absorbing material layer. The water-absorbing material layer is distributed at least in the rear absorbent pad.

[0008] A preferred embodiment is that, in order to further simplify the structure and facilitate product manufacturing, the front and rear absorbent pads are formed by folding the absorbent sheet in half with one side of the permeable nonwoven fabric as the inner side and the centerline along the length of the absorbent sheet as the fold line.

[0009] A preferred embodiment is that the bottom edges of the front and rear absorbent pads are joined together to form a joint, so that when the front and rear absorbent pads are opened for use, a water-holding pocket is formed at the bottom of the front and rear absorbent pads. After the front and rear absorbent pads are saturated with water, the water-holding pocket continues to collect the emulsion and prevents it from overflowing.

[0010] A preferred embodiment is that a Velcro snap fastener is provided on the inner side of the front absorbent pad adjacent to the top. The snap fastener has a strong adhesive force to the randomly distributed fibers on the surface of the water-permeable nonwoven fabric, so as to connect the tops of the front and rear absorbent pads and allow them to be opened when worn.

[0011] A preferred embodiment is that the permeable nonwoven fabric adjacent to the inner ring of the through-hole is combined with the water-repellent nonwoven fabric to improve the overall integrity of the front absorbent pad and prevent the superabsorbent polymer particles in the absorbent material layer from overflowing during use.

[0012] A preferred embodiment is that the absorbent material layer is also distributed at least in the lower middle part of the front absorbent pad to improve the absorbency of the water-holding bag.

[0013] The method of using the breast pads includes: A. Tear off the release paper on the outer side of the front absorbent pad, and then open the pad from the top of the front and rear absorbent pads to separate the upper middle part of the front and rear absorbent pads; B. Pass the user's nipple through the through hole from the front side of the front absorbent pad and press the front absorbent pad onto the breast so that the adhesive on the outer side of the front absorbent pad is attached to the breast. C. Attach the burr clips on the inner side of the top of the front absorbent pad to the inner side of the rear absorbent pad.

[0014] In the above usage method, by adjusting the bonding height of the burr clips on the inner side of the rear absorbent pad, the separation distance between the middle of the front and rear absorbent pads can be adjusted to meet the user's comfort requirements.

[0015] The optimized solution, compared with the prior art, has the following advantages: (1) The breast pad of the present invention includes front and back absorbent pads, and the bottoms of the front and back absorbent pads are connected, thus preventing milk from overflowing downwards during use. The front absorbent pad is pasted onto the breast during use. There is no need to paste the bottom of the breast pad onto the exact position on the inside of the bra or underwear, making it convenient to use. (2) The absorbent material layer is at least distributed in the back absorbent pad. That is, in the front absorbent pad, absorbent material can be placed only near the water pocket, or the front absorbent pad can be filled with absorbent material to meet the needs of different customers.

Detailed Implementation Example

[0017] like Figures 1-4 A breast pad includes a front absorbent pad 1-1 and a rear absorbent pad 1-2 arranged adjacent to each other. The bottoms of the front and rear absorbent pads are connected. A through hole 3 is provided in the middle of the front absorbent pad 1-1. Adhesive is applied to the outer surface of the front absorbent pad 1-1, and a release paper is covered on the adhesive. Because the bottoms of the front and rear absorbent pads are connected, breast milk can be prevented from leaking downwards during use. The adhesive used is food-grade adhesive.

[0018] The front and rear absorbent pads are formed by folding an absorbent sheet 1 in half. The absorbent sheet 1 includes a permeable nonwoven fabric, a water-absorbing material layer 2, and a water-repellent nonwoven fabric stacked in sequence. The four edges of the permeable and water-repellent nonwoven fabrics are joined together to wrap the water-absorbing material layer 2. The water-absorbing material layer 2 is distributed at least in the lower middle part of the rear absorbent pad 1-2 and the front absorbent pad (1-1). The water-absorbing material layer is a mixture of superabsorbent polymer particles and fluff pulp.

[0019] The front and rear absorbent pads are formed by folding the absorbent sheet 1 in half with one side of the permeable nonwoven fabric as the inner side and along the center line of the adjacent length direction of the absorbent sheet 1 as the fold line.

[0020] The bottom edges of the front and rear absorbent pads are joined together to form a joint 1-3, so that when the front and rear absorbent pads are opened for use, a water-holding pocket 5 is formed at the bottom of the front and rear absorbent pads.

[0021] A Velcro burr buckle 4 is provided on the inner side of the front absorbent pad 1-1 near the top.

[0022] The permeable nonwoven fabric adjacent to the inner ring of the through hole 3 is combined with the water-repellent nonwoven fabric.

[0023] In other embodiments, the front and rear absorbent pads can be separated as a whole and connected at the bottom of the front and rear absorbent pads by a water-repellent membrane to prevent milk from leaking downwards during use.

[0024] The bonding process involves ultrasonic welding or thermal fusion bonding between adjacent layers of nonwoven fabric, or between nonwoven fabric and water-repellent membrane. Example

[0025] like Figures 4-5 The method of using the breast pads described in Example 1 includes: A. Tear off the release paper on the outer side of the front absorbent pad 1-1, and then open the pad from the top of the front and rear absorbent pads to separate the upper middle part of the front and rear absorbent pads; B. Pass the user’s nipple through the through hole 3 from the front side of the front absorbent pad 1-1 and press the front absorbent pad 1-1 onto the breast so that the adhesive on the outer side of the front absorbent pad 1-1 is attached to the breast. C. Attach the burr buckle 4 on the top inner side of the front absorbent pad 1-1 to the inner side of the rear absorbent pad 1-2.

[0026] In the above usage method, by adjusting the bonding height of the burr buckle 4 on the inner side of the rear absorbent pad 1-2, the separation distance between the middle of the front and rear absorbent pads can be adjusted to meet the user's comfort requirements.

[0027] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
