Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of sanitary products, in particular to the fields of baby pull-up pants, adult pull-up pants, women's sanitary pants, and specifically to a shorts-type absorbent article. Background Art
[0002] Walking pants are also called panty-type diapers, or pull-up pants, which are collectively referred to as shorts-type absorbent articles. Because panty-type diapers can be put on and taken off like ordinary underwear, the waist is elastic and comfortable to wear, and they are becoming more and more popular with consumers. Conventional pull-up pants products have a waist tension at the front waist or back waist at the waist opening that is greater than the tension at the abdomen or buttocks. Because there are multiple elastic bands arranged inside the waist, a large pressure is exerted on the waist when worn for a long time, causing discomfort to the wearer's waist, and it is easy to leave marks on the skin, reducing the experience. In response to this situation, the front and back waists of pull-up pants are designed to be soft, for example, the waist material is designed to be hollow or bubble-shaped to increase the fluffiness of the waist and make it softer in contact with the skin.
[0003] Currently, pull-up pants with bubble shape, such as the bubble waist product disclosed in Chinese patent CN218484760U, at least include an outer layer of non-woven fabric, an inner layer of non-woven fabric and a covering patch, wherein the covering patch includes a covering non-woven fabric and a plurality of elastic bands, the plurality of elastic bands are arranged on a surface of the covering non-woven fabric relative to the absorbent inner body, a surface of the covering non-woven fabric close to the elastic bands is bonded to the inner layer of non-woven fabric, and the outer layer of non-woven fabric wraps the covering non-woven fabric and the inner layer of non-woven fabric.
[0004] However, the bubble waistline product prepared by the above method includes three layers of material at the waistline, namely, an outer non-woven fabric, an inner non-woven fabric and a covering non-woven fabric. Therefore, the material layer at the waistline is thicker, especially in summer, the feeling of stuffiness is enhanced, and the air permeability is poor. In addition, the multi-layer material will cause the heat sealing strength on both sides of the pull-up pants product to increase relatively, resulting in harder edges on both sides of the product, which is not conducive to the overall softness of the product.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to propose solutions to the problems of the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0038] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application. In addition, it should be understood that the specific implementation methods described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application. In the present application, unless otherwise stated, the directional words used, such as "up", "down", "left", and "right", generally refer to the up, down, left, and right of the device in actual use or working state, specifically the drawing direction in the accompanying drawings.
[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the shorts-type absorbent article has mutually perpendicular length direction, width direction and thickness direction (wherein, the length direction refers to the direction of the shorts-type absorbent article in the unfolded state; in the thickness direction, the surface in contact with the human body is the skin side, and the side away from the human body skin side is the non-skin side, see the arrows of each direction shown in the attached figure for details), and has a front waist B1 arranged at the front waist of the wearer in the length direction, an abdomen B2 arranged at the ventral part of the wearer, a buttocks B4 arranged at the back buttocks of the wearer, a back waist B5 arranged at the back part of the wearer, and a crotch B3 arranged between the abdomen B2 and the buttocks B4. In the thickness direction, it has a skin side in contact with the wearer and a non-skin side away from the skin side of the wearer. In the length direction, it has a front body part F and a back body part B arranged oppositely, and the two side edges of the front body part F and the back body part B are respectively sealed to form a side sealing part 30, so that the shorts-type absorbent article forms a waist opening and two leg openings. The shorts-type absorbent article includes an outer body 20 and an absorbent body 10 connected to the skin side of the outer body 20. In the crotch portion B3, the outer body 20 forms arc-shaped leg circumference lines 20a on both sides of the absorbent body 10, so as to better fit the leg contour of the wearer.
[0040] like Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 and Fig.12As shown, in the first to fifth embodiments, the outer body 20 includes an outer nonwoven fabric 22, an inner nonwoven fabric 21, an end nonwoven fabric 23 and an elastic component. In the thickness direction, the inner nonwoven fabric 21 is arranged on the side close to the skin side, and the outer nonwoven fabric 22 is arranged on the side close to the non-skin side. The inner nonwoven fabric 21 is located between the absorbent body 10 and the outer nonwoven fabric 22. The inner nonwoven fabric 21 is at least partially connected to the end nonwoven fabric 23 along the length direction, wherein the end nonwoven fabric 23 is at least arranged at the front waist B1 and the back waist B5.
[0041] Further, the end nonwoven fabric 23 can be a combination of one or more nonwoven fabrics in a hot air nonwoven fabric containing PE or a spunbonded nonwoven fabric containing PE, a hydrophilic nonwoven fabric, a printed nonwoven fabric or a nonwoven fabric with an identification function. Specifically, when the end nonwoven fabric 23 uses a hot air nonwoven fabric containing PE or a spunbonded nonwoven fabric containing PE, since the adhesiveness of the hot air nonwoven fabric containing PE or the spunbonded nonwoven fabric containing PE is weak, the problem that the edges on both sides of the waistline of the pull-up pants product have a high heat sealing strength and a hard edge on both sides due to the large number of material layers is solved, thereby improving the softness of both sides of the product. When the end nonwoven fabric 23 uses a hydrophilic nonwoven fabric, the conductive function of the shorts-type absorbent article can be improved, which is conducive to the discharge of moisture from the waist. When the end nonwoven fabric 23 uses a nonwoven fabric with printing or an identification function, the aesthetics of the shorts-type absorbent article can be enhanced and the recognition of the product can be improved. Of course, the end nonwoven fabric 23 can also use the above-mentioned other nonwoven fabrics or their combinations, which are not given one by one here. In other words, by imparting functional properties to the material of the end non-woven fabric 23, the product style can be adjusted more flexibly to meet the diverse needs of customers and improve product quality.
[0042] The orthographic projections of the inner nonwoven fabric 21 and the end nonwoven fabric 23 in the thickness direction are at least partially overlapped. There is a spacing between the two ends 21a of the inner nonwoven fabric 21 in the length direction and the two side edges 22a of the outer nonwoven fabric 22 in the length direction. Such a design can reduce the number of material layers of the front waist B1 and the back waist B5, preventing the wearer from feeling stuffy and uncomfortable due to too many material layers of the front waist B1 or the back waist B5. At the same time, it can also prevent the side sealing part 30 from being too strong due to too many material layers of the front waist B1 and the back waist B5, and prevent the two side edges of the shorts-type absorbent article from being too hard and damaging the skin, thereby ensuring the overall softness of both sides of the product.
[0043] Further, the elastic components of the outer packaging body 20 are arranged along the width direction. The elastic components include a first elastic component 24 and a second elastic component 25. The first elastic component 24 is located at the abdomen B2 and the buttocks B4, and the second elastic component 25 is located at the front waist B1 and the back waist B5. The outer nonwoven fabric 22 is bent toward the skin side of the absorbent body 10 to form a first bent portion 221. The first bent portion 221 covers the second elastic component 25.
[0044] Furthermore, the first elastic component 24 and the second elastic component 25 are both spandex, and the stretching ratio of the first elastic component 24 is smaller than that of the second elastic component 25. The distance between any two adjacent second elastic components 25 is smaller than the distance between any two adjacent first elastic components 24.
[0045] In the embodiment of the present application, the outer nonwoven fabric 22 includes a cavity area J2 and a joining area, the joining area includes a first joining area J11 and a second joining area J12, and the cavity area J2 is located at the front waist B1 and the back waist B5. In the cavity area J2, the outer nonwoven fabric 22 wraps the waist elastic body and at least includes a cavity structure 40 formed on the non-skin side of the waist elastic body, wherein the waist elastic body includes an end nonwoven fabric 23 located at the front waist B1 and the back waist B5 and a second elastic component 25.
[0046] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present application, the dimension of the cavity area J2 along the length direction is not greater than 50 mm, which can ensure the softness and breathability of the front waist B1 and the back waist B5 of the shorts-type absorbent article located at the waist opening and its vicinity, thereby reducing the pressure of the second elastic component 25 on the wearer's skin.
[0047] In some embodiments of the present application, the orthographic projection size of the cavity region J2 in the thickness direction is a size greater than the spacing. In other embodiments of the present application, the orthographic projection size of the cavity region J2 in the thickness direction is a size less than the spacing. In still other embodiments of the present application, the orthographic projection size of the cavity region J2 in the thickness direction is a size equal to the spacing.
[0048] like Figure 3 As shown, the absorbent body 10 is a main structure for absorbing excrement. The absorbent body 10 is arranged along the length direction, extending from the abdomen B2 through the crotch B3 to the buttocks B4. The absorbent body 10 includes a liquid-permeable surface sheet 11, a liquid-impermeable back sheet 12, an absorbent body 13 and a leg barrier 14.
[0049] The liquid-permeable top sheet 11 is disposed on the skin-side surface of the absorbent body 10 in the thickness direction. The liquid-impermeable back sheet 12 is disposed on the non-skin-side surface of the absorbent body 10 .
[0050] The absorbent body 13 is disposed between the liquid-permeable surface sheet 11 and the liquid-impermeable back sheet 12. The absorbent body 13 contains a liquid-absorbing material for absorbing excrement. The cross-sectional shape of the absorbent body is rectangular, dumbbell-shaped, or other shapes. In the first to fifth embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the absorbent body is rectangular. The excrement of the wearer passes through the liquid-permeable surface sheet 11 and is absorbed by the absorbent body 13.
[0051] The leg blocking parts 14 are arranged at intervals along the width direction and extend along the length direction. The leg blocking parts 14 include two side sheets 141 and a fourth elastic component 142. The fourth elastic component 142 is made of spandex yarn, and of course it can also be made of natural rubber strips (yarns) or other elastic materials. The fourth elastic component 142 extends along the length direction, and the two side sheets 141 are located at the two side edges of the absorbent body 10 along the width direction. The two side sheets 141 wrap and fix the fourth elastic component 142, such as Figure 3 When the pants-type absorbent article is worn, the leg blocking portion 14 stands up around the legs of the wearer under the action of the fourth elastic member 142. The leg blocking portion 14 is designed to block urine or soft feces flowing along the width direction on the absorbent body 13 to prevent side leakage.
[0052] The absorbent body 10 structure of the shorts-type absorbent articles in Examples 1 to 5 of the present application is basically the same, but the structures of their respective outer bodies 20 are different, which will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the description order of the following embodiments is not intended to limit the preferred order of the embodiments of the present application. In the following embodiments, the descriptions of each embodiment have their own emphases. For parts that are not described in detail in a certain embodiment, please refer to the relevant descriptions of other embodiments. In addition, with regard to the accompanying drawings, in order to explain more clearly, compared with the actual situation, the width, thickness, shape, etc. of each component are sometimes schematically shown, but this is only an example and is not a limitation on the interpretation of the present application. Moreover, each of the accompanying drawings schematically shows an implementation method, so the size, spacing or positional relationship of each component is exaggerated or part of the component is omitted.
[0053] Embodiment 1
[0054] like Figure 4 As shown, the outer body 20 includes an outer nonwoven fabric 22, an inner nonwoven fabric 21 and an end nonwoven fabric 23. In the thickness direction, the inner nonwoven fabric 21 is arranged on the side close to the skin side, and the outer nonwoven fabric 22 is arranged on the side close to the non-skin side. In the length direction, the outer nonwoven fabric 22 is arranged to extend from the front waist B1 and the abdomen B2 through the crotch B3 to the buttocks B4 and the back waist B5.
[0055] The two ends of the outer nonwoven fabric 22 along the length direction are bent toward the skin side of the absorbent body 10 to form a first bent portion 221. The inner nonwoven fabric 21 is fixed between the absorbent body 10 and the end nonwoven fabric 23. The end nonwoven fabric 23 is fixed between the inner nonwoven fabric 21 and the outer nonwoven fabric 22, and the end nonwoven fabric 23 is located at the front waist B1 and the abdomen B2 and the buttocks B4 and the back waist B5. Further, the two ends of the end nonwoven fabric 23 along the length direction are bent toward the skin side of the absorbent body 10 to form a second bent portion 231, wherein the orthographic projections of the first bent portion 221 and the second bent portion 231 in the thickness direction are overlapped.
[0056] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the inner nonwoven fabric 21 is at least partially bonded and fixed to the end nonwoven fabric 23 along the length direction. The orthographic projections of the inner nonwoven fabric 21 and the end nonwoven fabric 23 along the thickness direction are at least partially overlapped. There is a spacing between the front and rear ends 21a of the inner nonwoven fabric 21 along the length direction and the side edges 22a of the outer nonwoven fabric 22 along the length direction. In other words, the front and rear ends 21a of the inner nonwoven fabric 21 along the length direction do not extend to the front waist B1 and the back waist B5. Such a design can reduce the number of material layers of the front waist B1 and the back waist B5, prevent the wearer from feeling stuffy and uncomfortable due to too many material layers of the front waist B1 or the back waist B5, and also prevent the side sealing part 30 from being too strong due to too many material layers of the front waist B1 and the back waist B5, and make the side edges of the shorts-type absorbent article too hard to damage the skin, thereby ensuring the overall softness of both sides of the product.
[0057] Further, the end nonwoven fabric 23 can be a combination of one or more nonwoven fabrics in a hot air nonwoven fabric containing PE or a spunbonded nonwoven fabric containing PE, a hydrophilic nonwoven fabric, a printed nonwoven fabric or a nonwoven fabric with an identification function. Specifically, when the end nonwoven fabric 23 uses a hot air nonwoven fabric containing PE or a spunbonded nonwoven fabric containing PE, since the adhesiveness of the hot air nonwoven fabric containing PE or the spunbonded nonwoven fabric containing PE is weak, the problem that the edges on both sides of the waist of the pull-up pants product have a high heat sealing strength and a hard edge on both sides due to the large number of material layers is solved, thereby improving the softness of both sides of the product. When the end nonwoven fabric 23 uses a hydrophilic nonwoven fabric, the conductive function of the shorts-type absorbent article can be improved, which is conducive to the discharge of moisture from the waist. When the end nonwoven fabric 23 uses a nonwoven fabric with printing or an identification function, the aesthetics of the shorts-type absorbent article can be enhanced and the recognition of the product can be improved. In this way, by giving functional characteristics to the material of the end nonwoven fabric 23, the product style can be adjusted more flexibly to meet the diverse needs of customers and improve product quality.
[0058] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the outer body 20 also includes an elastic component extending in the width direction. The elastic component includes a first elastic component 24 and a second elastic component 25. The first elastic component 24 is provided at the abdomen B2 and the buttocks B4, and is fixed between the end non-woven fabric 23 and the outer non-woven fabric 22. The second elastic component 25 is provided at the front waist B1 and the back waist B5. The second bending portion 231 covers the second elastic component 25.
[0059] In the first embodiment, the outer nonwoven fabric 22 includes a cavity area J2 and a joining area, the joining area includes a first joining area J11 and a second joining area J12, and the cavity area J2 is located at the front waist B1 and the back waist B5. In the cavity area J2, the outer nonwoven fabric 22 wraps the waist elastic body and forms a cavity structure 40 on at least one non-skin side of the waist elastic body, wherein the waist elastic body includes an end nonwoven fabric 23 (including a second bending portion 231) located at the front waist B1 and the back waist B5 and a second elastic component 25, and the waist elastic body has a certain elastic expansion and contraction.
[0060] Furthermore, the bonding area can be bonded by any one or two of a hot melt adhesive process, a hot pressing process, and an ultrasonic process. In the first embodiment, a hot melt adhesive process is used for bonding. In the bonding area (including the first bonding area J11 and the second bonding area J12), the outer non-woven fabric 22 is bonded to the corresponding component, while in the cavity area J2, the outer non-woven fabric 22 is not bonded to the corresponding component.
[0061] Specifically, in the first embodiment, the joining area (including the first joining area J11 and the second joining area J12) is located at the abdomen B2 and the buttocks B4, and the cavity area J2 is located at the front waist B1 and the back waist B5.
