AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing women's underwear designs fail to effectively prevent liquid leakage from absorbent pads during menstruation or urinary incontinence, particularly when the wearer is in dynamic positions or making large movements, due to gaps between the body and the fabric.

Method used

The underwear is designed with stretchable fabric covering the abdomen, buttocks, crotch, and thighs, incorporating absorbent and liquid-impermeable fabric on the inside, forming a seamless unit with a waterproof polyurethane film on the skin side, ensuring tight adhesion and preventing leaks.

Benefits of technology

The design ensures the absorbent fabric remains adhered to the body during exercise, preventing liquid leaks from reaching outer clothing by eliminating gaps and utilizing stretchable fabric for seamless coverage.

Abstract

To prevent a liquid leaking from an absorbent pad during menstruation or urine leakage from oozing out to an outer garment even in a standing position, a lying position, a sitting position or a large movement from a waist part to a thigh part.SOLUTION: In the underwear composed of a fabric having stretchability in the vertical and horizontal directions in the abdominal part, the buttock part, the crotch part and the thigh part and closely adhering to the body, a fabric having water-absorbing properties on one surface and liquid-impermeable waterproof properties on the opposite surface is installed on the skin side of the crotch part and the buttock part and the thigh part adjacent to the crotch part.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] women's underwear [Background technology]

[0002] There are many technologies in place to prevent fluid leakage during urinary incontinence or menstruation by tightly fitting absorbent pads, but there are few technologies to catch leaks when they do occur.

[0003] Utility Model No. 3095963 uses technology to place impermeable fabric inside the pajamas on the abdomen, buttocks, crotch, and thighs to prevent liquids from penetrating into the outer garment, but this leaves gaps between the body and the fabric, and it cannot be said that the garment is fully covered when standing, sitting, or moving.

[0004] Furthermore, in Patent No. 7005057, absorbent and waterproof fabric is placed on the skin side of the crotch, buttocks and thighs, but leakage is prevented by laminating the fabric, and there is no mention of gaps from the body that may occur due to movement, so there is a concern that the fabric may leak out during large movements of the thighs, such as exercise. [Prior art documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3095963 [Patent Document 2] Patent No. 7005057 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] To prevent liquid leaking from a water-absorbing pad during menstruation or urinary leakage from seeping into outer clothing even when the wearer is in a standing, lying or sitting position or when the wearer makes large movements from the waist to the thighs. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] The underwear covering the abdomen, buttocks, crotch and thighs is made of fabric stretchable in both directions to enhance adhesion to the body, and fabric with water absorbency on one side and liquid impermeability on the other side is placed on the inside of the buttocks and thighs adjacent to the crotch.

[0008] The fabric placed on the inside of the buttocks and thighs adjacent to the crotch area is highly absorbent, for example, a pile fabric with a waterproof polyurethane film attached to one side, placed with the absorbent pile surface facing the skin.

[0009] At this time, it is desirable that the above-mentioned cloth placed on the buttocks, crotch and inside of the thighs is formed as a single piece without any stitching between the above-mentioned parts, and that the only joint is the stretchable fabric covering the abdomen and front thighs and the stretchable fabric covering the outside of the buttocks and back thighs. [Effects of the Invention]

[0010] The stretchy outer fabric allows it to adhere tightly to the body, so the absorbent fabric on the skin side does not separate from the body even during exercise, and the absorbent and liquid-impermeable properties of the fabric prevent liquid leaking from the pad from flowing through the gaps and seeping into the outer clothing. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0011] [Figure 1] FIG. 1 is a front view of the present invention. [Figure 2] FIG. 2 is a rear view of the present invention. [Figure 3] 1 is a cross-sectional view of the present invention. [Explanation of symbols]

[0012] 1. Elastic fabric that forms the outer layer 2. Absorbent, liquid-impermeable fabric in the crotch area and adjacent buttocks and inner thighs. 3. The crotch area and the adjacent buttocks and thigh fabrics at the junction with the abdomen and front thighs 4. The crotch area and the adjacent buttocks and thigh fabrics at the junction with the buttocks and back thighs

Claims

[Claim 1] It is a form of tight-fitting underwear made of fabric stretchable in both directions, covering the abdomen, buttocks, crotch, and thighs, with one side of the fabric on the skin side of the crotch and the buttocks and thighs adjacent to the crotch being water-absorbent and the other side being liquid-impermeable and waterproof.
