Summary of Invention

Problem to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] Some absorbent articles such as urinary pads and sanitary napkins are provided with wing portions extending in the width direction. Normally, in a distribution state, these wing portions are folded inward in the width direction of the absorbent article along folding lines extending in the longitudinal direction of the absorbent article. The wing portions are provided with adhesive portions for attaching the absorbent article to the user's underwear or the like. When using the absorbent article, the wing portions are opened outward in the width direction and deployed.

[0005] When the absorbent article is deployed, if the adhesive portion adheres to the packaging sheet, the packaging sheet may be torn. There is also a concern that the wing portion may tear off from the absorbent article while the adhesive portion is stuck to the packaging sheet, making the adhesive portion unusable in the worn state.

[0006] The technology of the present invention is to provide a package in which the adhesive portion is less likely to adhere to the packaging sheet.

Means for Solving the Problem

[0007] A packaging body according to one aspect of the present invention comprises a paper packaging sheet, an absorbent article that is folded inward in the width direction when packaged in the packaging sheet, and unfolds to overlap the packaging sheet when the packaging sheet is unfolded, and has wing portions formed at its ends in the width direction, and an adhesive portion provided on the part of the wing portion that protrudes outward in the width direction from the packaging sheet when the packaging sheet and the wing portion are unfolded. [Effects of the Invention]

[0008] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a packaging body in which the adhesive part is less likely to adhere to the packaging sheet. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[Figure 5] Figure 5 is a plan view of the packaging according to a modified example of Embodiment 1 in an unfolded state. [Figure 6] Figure 6 is a plan view of the wing portion of an absorbent article according to a modified example of Embodiment 1, in an unfolded state. [Figure 7] Figure 7 is a plan view of the wing portion of the absorbent article according to Embodiment 2 in an unfolded state. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0010] <Embodiment 1> The following describes a packaging body according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the drawings. A packaging body is one in which an absorbent article is wrapped in a packaging sheet. Note that the configurations of the following embodiments are illustrative, and the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0011] (Aspect 1) a paper packaging sheet, and an absorbent article that is folded inward in the width direction in a packaged state where it is wrapped in the folded packaging sheet, is deployed so as to overlap the packaging sheet in an unfolded state where the packaging sheet is unfolded, and has wing portions formed at end portions in the width direction, and an adhesive portion provided on a portion of the wing portions that faces the packaging sheet in a state where the packaging sheet and the wing portions are unfolded, the portion protruding outward in the width direction beyond the packaging sheet. comprising: a package.

[0012] It is possible to prevent the adhesive portion provided on the wing portion of the absorbent article from adhering to the paper packaging sheet.

[0013] (Aspect 2) a paper packaging sheet having a region subjected to a soft adhesion treatment or a non-adhesion treatment, and an absorbent article that is folded inward in the width direction in a packaged state where it is wrapped in the folded packaging sheet, is deployed so as to overlap the packaging sheet in an unfolded state where the packaging sheet is unfolded, and has wing portions formed at end portions in the width direction, and an adhesive portion provided on a surface of the wing portions that faces the packaging sheet in a state where the packaging sheet and the wing portions are unfolded, and that comes into contact with the region subjected to the soft adhesion treatment or the non-adhesion treatment in the state where the packaging sheet and the wing portions are unfolded. comprising: a package.

[0014] By providing the region subjected to the soft adhesion treatment or the non-adhesion treatment at the position where the adhesive portion provided on the wing portion of the absorbent article and the paper packaging sheet come into contact, even if the adhesive portion and the paper packaging sheet come into contact, a user can take out the absorbent article from the packaging sheet without the adhesive portion adhering to the packaging sheet.

[0015] (Aspect 3) The package according to Aspect 2, wherein The packaging sheet has a seal portion where parts of the packaging sheet that are folded over and adhered to each other in the packaged state are peeled off when transitioning from the packaged state to the unfolded state, In the state where the packaging sheet and the wing portion are unfolded, the peeled seal portion comes into contact with the adhesive portion, The seal portion may be a region subjected to the soft adhesion treatment or the non-adhesion treatment, and the adhesive portion does not adhere to the peeled seal portion in the state where the packaging sheet and the wing portion are unfolded.

[0016] By providing the packaging sheet with the seal portion, it is possible to prevent the absorbent article from falling off the packaging sheet. Further, when the packaging sheet is unfolded, the adhesive portion is less likely to adhere to the peeled seal por tion, so that even if the adhesive portion comes into contact with the paper packaging sheet, the user can take out the absorbent article from the packaging sheet without the adhesive portion adhering to the packaging sheet.

[0017] (Aspect 4) The package according to aspect 3, The seal portion may be adhered by hot embossing in the packaged state such that irregularities or a plurality of holes are formed on the adhered surface of the seal portion after peeling. Or

[0018] Since irregularities or a plurality of holes are formed on the peeled seal portion, the contact area between the adhered surface of the peeled seal portion and the adhesive portion is reduced. Thereby, even if the adhesive portion adheres to the adhered surface of the peeled seal portion, the user can easily peel the adhesive portion from the peeled seal portion.

[0019] (Aspect 5) The package according to aspect 4, The seal portion may be disposed at an end portion in the width direction of the packaging sheet.

[0020] By positioning the sealing portion at the end of the packaging sheet in the width direction, even if the adhesive portion adheres to the surface to which the sealing portion is attached after peeling, the user can easily apply force to peel the adhesive portion away from the sealing portion after peeling.

[0021] (Aspect 6) In the packaging described in Embodiment 3, The seal portion after peeling is located at the end of the packaging sheet in the width direction and has an expanding region formed so as to widen along the extending direction of the seal portion, from one side to the other of two opposing sides in the longitudinal direction, and a decreasing region formed so as to narrow along the extending direction of the seal portion, from one side to the other of two opposing sides in the longitudinal direction. The expanding region and the shrinking region may be formed alternately along the extending direction of the sealing portion.

[0022] The alternating formation of enlarged and reduced areas creates areas that are easy for the user to grasp. As a result, the user can easily peel off the adhesive portion by starting from the point of contact between the peeled-off seal and the adhesive portion.

[0023] (Aspect 7) In the packaging described in Embodiment 6, The sealing portion has a minimum width position and a maximum width position. In the longitudinal direction of the absorbent article, one end of the adhesive portion may coincide with the minimum width position, and the other end of the adhesive portion may coincide with the maximum width position.

[0024] The user can more easily apply force to peel the adhesive part away from the sealed area after it has been removed.

[0025] (Pattern 8) In the packaging described in any one of the embodiments 1 to 7, The aforementioned packaging sheet is folded so that two opposing sides overlap with the same side, In the overlapping region where the packaging sheets overlap, a first sealing portion extends along one of the two sides and adheres the overlapping region, The overlapping region includes a second sealing portion that extends along the other side of the two sides and adheres the overlapping region together, The ease of peeling of the first seal portion may be higher than the ease of peeling of the second seal portion.

[0026] By making the peelability of the first seal higher than that of the second seal, when a user applies force to the starting end of the peeling process to unfold the packaging, the user can more easily direct the applied force to the first seal. This makes it easier for the user to open the packaging.

[0027] In this embodiment, a sanitary napkin is given as an example of an absorbent item that covers the user's genital area (crotch). However, the term "absorbent item" as used in this application is not limited to sanitary napkins, but may also refer to absorbent pads such as light incontinence pads that absorb excretions such as urine. Other examples of absorbent items include disposable diapers.

[0028] Figure 1 is a plan view of the packaging 100 according to the embodiment. Figure 2 is a plan view of the packaging 100 in an unfolded state according to the embodiment. In Figure 2, the packaging 100 is unfolded, but the wing portion W is not unfolded. For convenience, the state in which the packaging sheet 110 is folded as shown in Figure 1 and the napkin 1 is enclosed in the packaging sheet 110 is considered the packaged state of the packaging 100 (packaging sheet 110). Also, the state in which the packaged packaging 100 is opened and the packaging sheet 110 is unfolded as shown in Figure 2 is considered the unfolded state of the packaging 100 (packaging sheet 110). Figure 3 is a plan view of the state in which the wing portion W of the napkin 1 is unfolded according to the embodiment. Also, the state in which the wing portion W is unfolded as shown in Figure 3 is considered the unfolded state of the wing portion W. Figure 3 is a diagram showing the unfolded state of the packaging 100 and the unfolded state of the wing portion W. The packaging 100 is unfolded in the order of Figure 1, Figure 2, and Figure 3.

[0029] The packaging 100 includes a sanitary napkin (hereinafter simply referred to as "napkin") 1 and a packaging sheet 110. The packaging 100 further includes a sealing portion 120 (an example of the "adhered portion" in the present invention), a peel-start end 130, a folded end 140, and a fastening tape 150. The sealing portion 120 includes a first sealing portion 121 and a second sealing portion 122. The peel-start end 130 includes a first peel-start end 131 and a second peel-start end 132. The folded end 140 includes a first folded end 141 and a second folded end 142.

[0030] The packaging 100 has a Y direction and an X direction. The Y direction refers to the direction in which the absorbent material of the napkin 1 extends in the front-to-back direction between the wearer's legs when the napkin is worn. The X direction is on the same plane as the napkin 1 and is perpendicular to the Y direction. In the packaged state, the Y direction is the shorter direction, but in the unfolded state, the Y direction is the longer direction.

[0031] In this embodiment, the X direction coincides with the direction connecting the first end 111 and the second end 112, as described later. In the X direction, the direction from the outside to the inside of the first end 111 and the second end 112, where the two sides of the first end 111 and the second end 112 face each other, is defined as the inward direction in the X direction (inside in the width direction), and the direction from the inside to the outside of the first end 111 and the second end 112, the opposite direction to the inward direction in the X direction, is defined as the outward direction in the X direction (outside in the width direction). The Y direction is the direction along the extending direction of the first seal portion 121 and the second seal portion 122 of the packaging body 100.

[0032] Furthermore, when the napkin 1 is worn by the user (hereinafter also referred to as the worn state), the side of the napkin 1 facing the user's skin is the skin side, and the side opposite the skin side is the non-skin side. When the packaging 100 is unfolded, the packaging sheet 110 has an inner side facing the napkin 1. One side is defined as the outer side, and the opposite side as the outer side. Furthermore, in the packaging 100, the part exposed to the outside in the packaged state is defined as the exposed part, and the opposite side is defined as the non-exposed part. In this embodiment, in the packaged state, the direction connecting the exposed part and the non-exposed part is defined as the Z direction, and the Z direction is perpendicular to both the Y direction and the X direction. In addition, viewing the packaging 100 from the Z direction is defined as a plan view.

[0033] The napkin 1 is formed in a roughly oval shape and has a pair of wings W protruding from both sides of the X-direction end. The napkin 1 comprises a top sheet 2 positioned on the skin side, a back sheet 3 positioned on the non-skin side, and an absorbent 4 positioned between the top sheet 2 and the back sheet 3. The napkin 1 has a crotch area 1B that covers the user's genitals (crotch) when worn, a front area 1F positioned on the abdominal side of the user's crotch area 1B, and a rear area 1R positioned on the dorsal side of the user's crotch area 1B. Furthermore, the planar shape of the napkin 1 is not limited to the shape shown in Figure 2, and may be, for example, roughly rectangular, oval, hourglass-shaped, shuttlecock-shaped, gourd-shaped, etc.

[0034] The top sheet 2 is positioned on the skin-facing side so as to cover the absorbent material 4. The top sheet 2 is made of materials such as spunbond nonwoven fabric or air-through nonwoven fabric, which are formed by incorporating thermoplastic resin fibers. This top sheet 2 is permeable to water (liquid permeability) in part or in whole. Therefore, when the napkin 1 is worn, the discharged fluid from the user passes through the top sheet 2, which can come into contact with the wearer's skin, and enters the absorbent material 4, where it is absorbed. The top sheet 2 may also be hydrophilic.

[0035] The backsheet 3 is positioned on the non-skin side to cover the absorbent 4 and forms the outer surface of the napkin 1. For example, the backsheet 3 can be made of a nonwoven fabric using a liquid-impermeable thermoplastic resin to suppress leakage of discharge. Examples of liquid-impermeable thermoplastic resins include polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP). It is also preferable to provide adhesive tape or the like on the non-skin side of the backsheet 3. This allows the user to attach the napkin 1 to the skin side of their underwear.

[0036] The absorbent body 4 is rectangular in shape and has an absorbent core that absorbs liquid and a core wrap sheet that encloses the absorbent core. The absorbent core may have a structure in which granular absorbent resin (super absorbent polymer), such as SAP (Super Absorbent Polymer), a hydrophilic polymer with a cross-linked structure capable of absorbing and retaining water, is held in the gaps between short fibers of cellulosic fibers such as pulp fibers, rayon fibers, or cotton fibers, or synthetic fibers such as polyethylene, polypropylene, or polyethylene terephthalate that have been treated to be hydrophilic. When the absorbent core absorbs liquid discharged from the user, it swells the absorbent resin held in the gaps between the short fibers, thereby retaining the liquid within the short fibers. A nonwoven fabric with liquid permeability is used for the core wrap sheet. In this embodiment, the absorbent body 4 extends in the Y direction from the front region 1F to the rear region 1R. However, the planar shape of the absorbent body 4 is not limited to a rectangle and may be changed as appropriate.

[0037] In the unfolded state of the packaging 100 as shown in Figure 2, the packaging sheet 110 is a sheet-like member having a rectangular planar shape. The packaging sheet 110 in this embodiment is made of paper such as tissue paper. In the packaging 100, the non-skin side of the napkin 1 and the inside of the packaging sheet 110 face each other. The packaging sheet 110 includes a first end 111, a second end 112, a third end 113, a fourth end 114, a fold line L1, a fold line L2, a first region T1, a second region T2, and a third region T3. As will be described in detail later, the packaging sheet 110 is folded inward at the two fold lines L1 and L2 to form a tri-fold packaging state. For convenience, these two fold lines will be referred to as fold line L1 and fold line L2. Also, the Y direction of the packaging state In this direction, the region between the third end 113 and the fold line L1 is designated as the first region T1, the region between the fold line L1 and the fold line L2 is designated as the second region T2, and the region between the fold line L2 and the fourth end 114 is designated as the third region T3. In the unfolded state of the packaging 100 as shown in Figure 2, the napkin 1 is positioned so that its Y and X directions coincide with the Y and X directions of the packaging sheet 110. For convenience, two sides of the packaging sheet 110 that extend in the Y direction and face each other in the X direction are designated as the first end 111 and the other end 112. Also for convenience, two sides of the packaging sheet 110 that extend in the X direction and face each other in the Y direction are designated as the third end 113 and the other end 114. However, the first end 111, second end 112, third end 113, and fourth end 114 are defined for convenience and are not limited to the configuration of this embodiment.

[0038] In the packaging state shown in Figure 1, the packaging sheet 110 is positioned on the non-skin side of the napkin 1 in the packaging body 100. That is, the packaging sheet 110 is folded in a way that it overlaps with the napkin 1 inside. The packaging sheet 110 is folded into thirds so that the two sides of the first end 111 and the second end 112, which are opposite each other, overlap along the same sides. The two fold lines that form this third-fold state are fold lines L1 and L2 shown in Figure 2.

[0039] In the manufacturing process of the packaging 100, the packaging sheet 110 is first folded along the fold line L2 so that the inner surface of the second region T2 and the inner surface of the third region T3 face each other. Next, the packaging sheet 110 is folded along the fold line L1 so that the inner surface of the first region T1, the inner surface of the second region T2, and the outer surface of the third region T3 face each other. This forms the packaging 100 in its packaged state. In the packaged state, the first region T1 overlaps the third region T3 from the outside, so that the fourth end 14 is covered by the first region T1. Also, in the packaged state, the packaging sheet 110 is folded so that the third end 113 of the packaging sheet 110 is located on the outside of the packaging 100. In this way, the third end 113 is formed as the first peel-off start end 131 of the packaging 100. Furthermore, in the packaged state, the fourth end 114 of the packaging sheet 110, which is covered by the first region T1 and not exposed to the outside of the packaging body 100, is formed as the second peel-start end 132 of the packaging body 100.

[0040] As shown in Figure 3, in the packaged body 100, the first peel-start end 131, the outer surface of the first region T1, the outer surface of the second region T2, and a part of the outer surface of the third region T3 are formed as exposed portions. In addition, the inner surface of the first region T1, the inner surface of the second region T2, and a part of the outer surface of the third region T3 including the second peel-start end 132 are formed as non-exposed portions. In the packaged body 100, the end of the packaging sheet 110 folded back along the fold line L1 is formed as the first folded end 141, and the end of the packaging sheet 110 folded back along the fold line L2 is formed as the second folded end 142. In this way, the packaged body 100 is formed in a rectangular shape as shown in Figure 1. The four sides of the rectangle are formed such that one end in the Y direction is a first folded end 141 and the other end is a second folded end 142, and one end in the X direction is formed by the overlapping of the first ends 111 and the other end is formed by the overlapping of the second ends 112. However, the manner in which the packaging sheet 110 is folded is not limited to this, and may be, for example, a two-fold manner with only one fold line, as long as it can contain the napkin 1 inside.

[0041] The wing portion W is a component formed by bonding the non-skin-facing surface of the top sheet 2 and the skin-facing surface of the back sheet 3. Of the pair of wing portions W, one is designated as the first wing portion W1 and the other as the second wing portion W2. As shown in Figure 3, when the wing portions W are unfolded, the first wing portion W1 and the second wing portion W2 are formed to protrude from the respective ends in the X direction of the crotch area 1B. As shown in Figure 2, before unfolding the wing portions W, the first wing portion W1 is folded inward in the X direction along the fold line L3, and the second wing portion W2 is folded inward in the X direction along the fold line L4. It is made of an adhesive portion WS formed on the non-skin side (back sheet 3 side) of the wing portion W, which faces the packaging sheet 110 when the wing portion W is unfolded. The adhesive portion WS is provided to secure the napkin 1 to underwear or the like when the user is using the napkin 1. The adhesive portion WS is made of an adhesive material such as double-sided tape.

[0042] In the unfolded state of the wing portion W, the area where the wing portion W and the packaging sheet 110 come into contact is defined as the contact area 10. In this embodiment, the contact area 10 includes the area where the wing portion W and the packaging sheet 110 come into contact outside the fold line L3 and inside the X-direction end of the first wing portion W1, and the area where the wing portion W and the packaging sheet 110 come into contact outside the fold line L4 and inside the X-direction end of the second wing portion W2. Furthermore, the area of ​​the contact area 10 on the wing portion W side is defined as the contact area 10W, and the area on the packaging sheet 110 side is defined as the contact area 10H. In addition, the area of ​​the contact area 10W other than the adhesive portion WS that does not have adhesive properties is defined as the non-adhesive portion 11W.

[0043] The first wing portion W1 and the second wing portion W2 are arbitrarily determined as the respective wing portions of a pair of wing portions W. Furthermore, the shape of the wing portion W is not limited to a rectangle; for example, it may be semicircular. Moreover, the wing portion W is not limited to a configuration in which both the first wing portion W1 and the second wing portion W2 are provided; for example, a configuration in which only one of the first wing portion W1 or the second wing portion W2 is provided is also possible. In this case, it may be provided at any position on one side of the X-direction end of the napkin 1. Furthermore, configurations in which wing portions other than the first wing portion W1 and the second wing portion W2 are provided are also possible. In addition, the location in which the first wing portion W1 and the second wing portion W2 are provided on the napkin 1 is not limited to the crotch area 1B; they may be provided at any location on the napkin 1. The first wing portion W1 and the second wing portion W2 may be provided, for example, in the front region 1F, the rear region 1R, and both ends of the napkin 1 in the Y direction.

[0044] Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view of the packaged body 100 in its packaged state. The cross-sectional view shown in Figure 4 shows the packaged body 100 in its packaged state cut in the Z direction along the Y direction. The Z direction is perpendicular to the X and Y directions. When the packaging sheet 110 is folded as described above, as shown in Figure 4, overlapping regions T are formed in the packaged body 100 in its packaged state where parts of the folded packaging sheet 110 overlap. The overlapping regions T include the region where the first region T1 and the second region T2 overlap, the region where the first region T1, the second region T2 and the third region T3 overlap, and the region where the second region T2 and the third region T3 overlap. The packaged body 100 is provided with a sealing portion 120 that adheres the overlapping regions T. The sealing portion 120 includes a first sealing portion 121 that extends along the first end 111 and adheres the overlapping region T, and a second sealing portion 122 that extends along the second end 112 and adheres the overlapping region T.

[0045] The direction in which the sealing portion 120 extends is the same as the direction in which the sealing portion 120 peels off (peeling direction) when the user applies force to the peeling start end 30. The peeling direction can also be described as the direction from the peeling start end 130 toward the folded end 140. In this embodiment, in the Z direction, a portion of the area where only the first region T1 and the second region T2 overlap, a portion of the area where the first region T1, the second region T2, and the third region T3 overlap, and a portion of the area where only the second region T2 and the third region T3 overlap are all bonded by the sealing portion 120. In other words, in the Z direction, the sealing portion 120 bonds the packaging sheets 110 together from the first region T1 to the second region T2. ​​However, the sealing portion 120 is not limited to a configuration that bonds the overlapping region T across the first region T1 to the second region T2, as long as it is capable of maintaining the packaging state of the package 100. For example, the bonding may consist of only two of the first region T1, the second region T2, and the third region T3, so as to bond a portion of the overlapping region T, or it may consist of only a portion in the Y direction.

[0046] In this embodiment, the sealing portion 120 has a first end 111 and a second end 112 respectively. They are positioned as follows: In other words, the sealing portion 120 is positioned at the X-direction end of the packaging sheet 110. Of the sealing portion 120, the adhesive portion along the first end 111 is designated as the first sealing portion 121, and the adhesive portion along the second end 112 is designated as the second sealing portion 122.

[0047] In this embodiment, the first folded end 141 of the folded end 140 is determined to be the end folded along the fold line L1, and the second folded end 142 is determined to be the end folded along the fold line L2, respectively, for convenience. In other words, for example, if the packaging body 100 is tri-folded as in this embodiment, the first region T1, the second region T2, and the third region T3 may each be made of separate members, and the packaging sheet 110 may be formed in such a manner that each member is connected by the first folded end 141 (fold line L1) and the second folded end 142 (fold line L2).

[0048] The sealing portion 120 is bonded to a part of the overlapping region T by providing multiple circular dot-shaped welded portions that are welded by heat embossing. In this embodiment, since the sealing portion 120 is bonded by welding, the adhesion is irreversibly lost if the sealing portion 120 is peeled off by the user. As shown in Figure 3, the sealing portion 120 after the packaging body 100 has been unfolded has an adhesive surface corresponding to the adhesive portion WS. In this embodiment, the sealing portion 120 is formed by heat embossing, creating multiple welded portions of any shape, such as concave, convex, uneven, or perforated. Multiple uneven surfaces or multiple holes are also formed on the adhesive surface, so the contact area when an adhesive object (hereinafter referred to as an adhesive object) comes into contact with it is reduced. Therefore, the peeled sealing portion 120 functions as a non-adhesive portion that has undergone a soft-adhesion treatment. As a result, an adhesive object can be easily peeled off the sealing portion 120 after peeling.

[0049] Here, "soft adhesion treatment" refers to a treatment that results in a mild adhesion state (soft adhesion state) such that when an adhesive object is brought into contact with an object, the adhesive object can be peeled off without damaging the object. Furthermore, the peeled seal portion 120 may function as a non-adhesive portion that has undergone non-adhesion treatment. Non-adhesion treatment refers to a treatment that makes it impossible for an adhesive object to adhere to an object when it is brought into contact with that object. In this embodiment, a non-adhesive portion refers to a part that has undergone soft adhesion treatment or non-adhesion treatment. In this embodiment, a state of non-adhesion, a soft adhesion state, or a state of not being adhered are collectively referred to as a non-adhesive state.

[0050] The method for making the sealed portion 120 after peeling into a non-adhesive portion that has undergone a soft-adhesion treatment or non-adhesion treatment is not limited to a method in which a plurality of irregularities or a plurality of holes are formed on the surface to be adhered. For example, an irreversible adhesive method may be used for the sealed portion 120, such as bonding a smooth surface by pressure. Alternatively, as a soft-adhesion treatment or non-adhesion treatment, a coating may be applied to the sealed portion 120 to prevent the adhesive portion WS from adhering to it. Examples of such coatings include applying a release agent or a mold release agent. Furthermore, even in locations other than the sealed portion 120 on the packaging sheet 110, a coating may be applied to locations where there is a possibility of contact with the adhesive portion WS when the wing portion W is unfolded to prevent the adhesive portion WS from adhering to it.

[0051] As shown in Figure 1, in this embodiment, the first seal portion 121 is bonded without gaps up to the first end portion 111, and the second seal portion 122 is bonded without gaps up to the second end portion 112. More specifically, in the first seal portion 121, the first ends 111 overlap and are bonded together. Similarly, in the second seal portion 122, the second ends 112 overlap and are bonded together. In other words, in a plan view, in the packaged package 100, the seal portion 120 bonds the overlapping region T provided at each end in the X direction along the Y direction. However, the configuration of the seal portion 120 is not limited to this, and for example, each bonded portion may be provided with a margin in the X direction from each end. As a result, in the packaged state, the first seal portion 121 extends along the overlapping portion of the first ends 111, and the second end portion 1 A second sealing portion 122 is provided that extends along the portion where the two ends 12 overlap, and the first ends 111 and the second ends 112 may not be bonded together.

[0052] In this embodiment, the adhesive surface of the peeled-off seal portion 120 is positioned to correspond to the adhesive portion WS when the wing portion W is unfolded. More specifically, in the unfolded state of the packaging body 100, when the first wing portion W1 is unfolded, the peeled-off first seal portion 121 overlaps with the first wing portion W1. Furthermore, the packaging body 100 is formed so that when the second wing portion W2 is unfolded, the peeled-off second seal portion 122 overlaps with the second wing portion W2. In addition, in the unfolded state of the wing portion W, the adhesive portion WS and the peeled-off seal portion 120 are in contact in the contact area 10.

[0053] If the entire area of ​​the seal portion 120 after peeling is formed as a non-adherent portion, then in the deployed state of the wing portion W, at least a portion of the adhesive portion WS and the seal portion 120 after peeling may be in contact. Alternatively, in the deployed state of the wing portion W, at least a portion of the adhesive portion WS and the seal portion 120 may be in contact, and at least the position where the seal portion 120 after peeling contacts the adhesive portion WS may be formed as a non-adherent portion.

[0054] Furthermore, if, in addition to the sealing portion 120, at least a part of the contact area 10H is formed as a non-adherent portion, the adhesive portion WS may be in contact with the non-adherent portion when the wing portion W is deployed. In such a configuration, it is preferable that the area on the X-direction end side of the adhesive portion WS is in contact with the non-adherent portion, or that the entire adhesive portion WS is in contact with the non-adherent portion. This makes it easier to peel the adhesive portion WS from the packaging sheet 110, even if it adheres to a location other than the sealing portion 120, starting from the contact point between the non-adherent portion and the adhesive portion WS.

[0055] Here, the peelability of the first seal portion 121 may be made higher than that of the second seal portion 122. For example, the adhesive strength per unit area of ​​the first seal portion 121 and the adhesive strength per unit area of ​​the second seal portion 122 may be made the same, and the width of the first seal portion 121 may be made narrower than the width of the second seal portion 122 in the X direction. In other words, there may be a difference in the number of dot-shaped welded portions between the first seal portion 121 and the second seal portion 122 in the X direction.

[0056] However, the method for making the peelability of the first seal portion 121 higher than that of the second seal portion 122 is not limited to this. For example, the area of ​​the circular dot-shaped welded portion of the first seal portion 121 may be made smaller than the area of ​​the circular dot-shaped welded portion of the second seal portion 122 to create a difference in peelability. However, the shape of the weld is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, polygonal dots or lines. Also, the bonding means for the seal portion 120 in this embodiment is not limited to ultrasonic welding, but may be, for example, adhesive or heat welding. When an adhesive means such as an adhesive is used for the seal portion 120, as a means of creating a difference in peelability between the peelability of the first seal portion 121 and the peelability of the second seal portion 122, for example, the bonding strength per unit area may be changed by using adhesives with different properties for the first seal portion 121 and the second seal portion 122, thereby creating a difference in peelability. When adhesive means such as welding are used for the sealing portion 120, a means of creating a difference in the ease of peeling between the first sealing portion 121 and the second sealing portion 122 may be, for example, by changing the welding strength of the first sealing portion 121 and the second sealing portion 122 to create a difference in the ease of peeling.

[0057] Here, the adhesive strength, ease of peeling, and peel strength in this embodiment will be described. Adhesive strength is the strength of adhesion per unit area. In this embodiment, in the overlapping region T, the first seal portion 121 or the second seal portion 122 adheres the first region T1 and the second region T2. This indicates the strength per unit area of ​​the first seal portion 121 or second seal portion 122 that adheres the first region T1, the second region T2, and the third region T3, or the strength per unit area of ​​the first seal portion 121 or second seal portion 122 that adheres the second region T2 and the third region T3. The adhesive strength depends on the welding temperature, etc., and on the adhesive used, etc. Peelability indicates how easy the user feels to peel off the seal portion 120. Peel strength is the area obtained by multiplying the width of the first seal portion 121 or second seal portion 122 perpendicular to the peeling direction by the unit length in the peeling direction, at a certain position, by the adhesive strength. In this embodiment, the adhesive strength per unit area of ​​the first seal portion 121 and the adhesive strength per unit area of ​​the second seal portion 122 are the same. In this embodiment, in the X direction, the width of the first seal portion 121 is formed to be narrower than the width of the second seal portion 122. Therefore, since the first seal portion 121 has higher peel strength than the second seal portion 122, the first seal portion 121 is formed to be relatively easier to peel off than the second seal portion 122. In other words, the first seal portion 121 is more easily peeled off than the second seal portion 122. According to the configuration of this embodiment, when a user grasps the tab portion 151 described later and unfolds the package 100 from its packaged state, the first seal portion 121, which is easier to peel off than the second seal portion 122, will take precedence over the second seal portion 122 and begin to peel off from the first peeling start end 131 side. The packaging sheet 110 peels off in the direction from the first peeling start end 131 toward the first folded end 141 and in the direction from the first seal portion 121 toward the second seal portion 122. After completing the peeling of the first peeling start end 131, the user further proceeds with the unfolding of the package 100 by beginning to peel off the second peeling start end 132. In this case, the second peeling start end 132, which has begun to peel off, peels in the direction toward the second folded end 142 and toward the second adhesive part 22 from the first adhesive part 21. When unfolding the packaging 100 in this way, comparing the first seal part 121 and the second seal part 122, the first seal part 121 is formed to be easier for the user to peel off. Therefore, it can be said that the ease of peeling of the first seal part 121 is superior to that of the second seal part 122.Furthermore, as described above, the method for differentiating the ease of peeling of the first seal portion 121 from the ease of peeling of the second seal portion 122 is not limited to differentiating the width of the first seal portion 121 and the width of the second seal portion 122 in the X direction.

[0058] The fastening tape 150 is made of vinyl tape or the like. The fastening tape 150 includes a gripping portion 151 and a fixing portion 152. The gripping portion 151 acts as a point of force when the user peels off the fastening tape 150 and does not have adhesive or tackiness. The fixing portion 152 is attached so as to span the first peeling start end 131 (third end 113) and other parts of the packaging sheet 110 and has adhesive or tackiness. More specifically, in this embodiment, the fixing portion 152 fixes the first peeling start end 131 to the outer surface of the second region T2. ​​In other words, it helps maintain the three-fold state described above and prevents unintended unfolding of the packaging 100. When attempting to peel off the seal portion 120 in the packaged state, the user grasps the gripping portion 151 and applies force towards the first folded end 141, thereby initiating the peeling of the seal portion 120. In this case, by providing a gripping portion 151 on the portion that protrudes from the first peeling start end 131 toward the second folded end 142, it becomes easier for the user to apply force to the first peeling start end 131. Furthermore, the fastening tape 150 is not limited to being positioned on the first peeling start end 131, but may also be positioned, for example, as a gripping portion for applying force to the second peeling start end 132.

[0059] As described above, the packaging 100 according to this embodiment comprises a paper packaging sheet 110 and a napkin 1 packaged in the folded packaging sheet 110. At the end of the napkin 1 in the X direction, a wing portion W is formed which folds inward in the X direction when the napkin 1 is packaged in the packaging sheet 110, and unfolds to overlap the packaging sheet 110 when the packaging sheet 110 is unfolded. The wing portion W has an adhesive portion WS on the surface facing the packaging sheet 110 when the packaging sheet 110 and the wing portion W are unfolded, and in the contact area 10 where the wing portion W and the packaging sheet 110 come into contact when the packaging sheet 110 and the wing portion W are unfolded, a non-adhesive portion is formed so that the adhesive portion WS does not adhere to the packaging sheet 110. This has been achieved. As a result, even when the user unfolds the wing portion W, the adhesive portion WS will be in a state of non-adhesion, light adhesion, or not adhering at all to the packaging sheet 110, thus preventing the packaging sheet 110 from sticking to the adhesive portion WS. Therefore, the wing portion W can be unfolded in a state where the adhesive portion WS is usable. In other words, it is possible to provide a package 100 in which the adhesive portion WS does not adhere to the packaging sheet 110. Furthermore, since the napkin 1 can be easily removed from the packaging sheet 110, an improvement in the user experience can be expected.

[0060] Furthermore, in the packaging 100 of this embodiment, the packaging sheet 110 has a seal portion 120 that adheres to each other when folded in the packaging state and peels off when transitioning from the packaging state to the unfolded state. When the packaging sheet 110 and the wing portion W are unfolded, the peeled seal portion 120 and the adhesive portion WS are in contact in the contact area 10, and the seal portion 120 is formed so that the adhesive portion WS does not adhere to the peeled seal portion 120 when the packaging sheet 110 and the wing portion W are unfolded. As a result, even when the user unfolds the wing portion W, the adhesive portion WS is in a state where it cannot adhere to the packaging sheet 110, or is only lightly adhered, thus preventing the packaging sheet 110 from adhering to the adhesive portion WS. In addition, it is possible to guide the user to unfold the wing portion W without discomfort and to a situation where the entire napkin 1, including the wing portion W, can be easily separated from the packaging sheet 110, thus improving the user's experience.

[0061] Furthermore, in the packaging 100 of this embodiment, the seal portion 120 is bonded in the packaging state by thermal embossing so that irregularities or multiple holes are formed on the adhesive surface of the seal portion 120 after peeling. As a result, the seal portion 120 has the function of a seal portion that bonds the overlapping region T by having multiple circular dot-shaped welded portions. In addition, the adhesive surface of the seal portion 120 after peeling can be given the function of a non-adherent portion such that the contact area with adhesive objects is small. As a result, even when the user unfolds the wing portion W, the adhesive portion WS will be in a state of non-adhesion or light adhesion to the packaging sheet 110, thus preventing the packaging sheet 110 from adhering to the adhesive portion WS.

[0062] Furthermore, in the packaging 100 of this embodiment, the sealing portion 120 is positioned at the first end 111 and the second end 112, which are the ends of the packaging sheet 110 in the X direction. With this arrangement, if a part of the adhesive portion WS and the packaging sheet 110 become unintentionally adhered, pulling the wing portion W from the X-direction end will cause the adhesive portion WS to begin peeling off from the contact point between the non-adherent sealing portion 120 and the adhesive portion WS. This allows the direction of the peeling force to shift from the X direction to the Y direction, thus gradually peeling the adhesive portion WS from the packaging sheet 110 and preventing the packaging sheet 110 from tearing.

[0063] Furthermore, in the packaging 100 of this embodiment, the two sides of the opposing first end 111 and second end 112 are folded so that the same sides overlap. The packaging 100 comprises a packaging sheet 110 containing the napkin 1, a first sealing portion 121 that extends along the first end 111 in the overlapping region T where the packaging sheets 110 overlap and adheres the overlapping region T, and a second sealing portion 122 that extends along the second end 112 in the overlapping region T and adheres the overlapping region T. Here, the ease of peeling of the first sealing portion 121 may be higher than the ease of peeling of the second sealing portion 122. Thus, by creating a difference in the ease of peeling between the first seal portion 121 and the second seal portion 122, when a user applies force to the peeling start end 130 to unfold the packaging 100, the force applied by the user to the peeling start end 130 toward the folded end 140 (along the peeling direction) will be preferentially transmitted to the first seal portion 121. Compared to the case where there is no difference in the ease of peeling between the first seal portion 121 and the second seal portion 122, and the force applied to the peeling start end 130 is transmitted to both the first seal portion 121 and the second seal portion 122, if the ease of peeling of the first seal portion 121 is higher than that of the second seal portion, it becomes easier to peel off the second seal portion 122 after peeling off the first seal portion 121. As a result, the user can preferentially apply the applied force to the first seal portion 121. Therefore, it becomes easier to apply the seal to the second seal portion 122, which prevents the packaging sheet 110 from tearing when the seal portion 120 is peeled off. This prevents any residue from being left behind on the seal portion 120, thus preventing the torn packaging sheet 110 from sticking to the adhesive portion WS.

[0064] <Modified form of Embodiment 1> Figure 5 is a plan view of the package 100A according to a modified example of Embodiment 1 in an unfolded state. Figure 6 is a plan view of the wing portion W of the napkin 1 according to a modified example of Embodiment 1 in an unfolded state. The package 100A according to Modified Example 1 of Embodiment will be described below using Figures 5 and 6. In this description of the modified example, the differences from the package 100 described using Figures 1 to 4 will be the main focus. In addition, elements that are common to package 100 among the elements constituting package 100A will be given the same reference numerals, and their detailed descriptions will be omitted.

[0065] In the unfolded state of the packaging 100A, the shape of the first seal portion 121A after peeling is a combination of straight lines that are not parallel to the first end portion 111. In other words, the first seal portion 121A after peeling has a curved shape relative to the first end portion 111. Furthermore, the shape of the second seal portion 122A after peeling, viewed from above, is a combination of straight lines that are not parallel to the second end portion 112. In other words, the second seal portion 122A after peeling has a curved shape relative to the second end portion 112. In this modified example, the first seal portion 121 after peeling has an expanded region 1211, a reduced region 1212, a minimum width position 1213, and a maximum width position 1214. Also, in this modified example, the second seal portion 122 after peeling has an expanded region 1221, a reduced region 1222, a minimum width position 1223, and a maximum width position 1224. In other words, in the X direction of the peeled seal portion 120A, there is an expanding region in which the width continuously widens along the extending direction of the peeled seal portion 120A, and a contracting region in which the width continuously narrows along the extending direction of the peeled seal portion 120A, and it is formed so that the maximum width and minimum width alternate. The expanding region 1211 and the expanding region 1221 have a shape in which the width of the peeled first seal portion 121A and the width of the peeled second seal portion 122A widen from the third end 113 side to the fourth end 114 side. The contracting region 1212 and the contracting region 1222 have a shape in which the width of the peeled first seal portion 121A and the width of the peeled second seal portion 122A narrow from the third end 113 side to the fourth end 114 side. In this modified example, these are formed continuously, resulting in a continuous bell-shaped form. However, the existence of an expanding region and a contracting region in the X direction of the peeled seal portion 120A is not limited to this. For example, the seal portion 120A may have a switching position where the width of the seal portion after peeling changes, or it may have an area that is either an enlarged area or a reduced area. Furthermore, the shape of the first seal portion 121A and the shape of the second seal portion 122A are not limited to a mountain-like shape formed by combining multiple straight lines that are not parallel to the first end portion 111 and the second end portion 112, but may also be a wave-like shape formed by combining curves, etc.

[0066] In this modified example, it is preferable that the maximum width of the peeled seal portion 120A in the Y direction coincides with the Y-direction end of the adhesive portion WS. More specifically, the Y-direction end WS11 of the adhesive portion WS1 provided on the first wing portion W1 coincides with the maximum width position 1214, and the Y-direction end WS21 of the adhesive portion WS2 provided on the second wing portion W2 coincides with the maximum width position 1224. This makes it possible to maintain the adhesive strength of the overlapping region T by the peeled seal portion 120A, while making it easier to peel the adhesive portion WS from the packaging sheet 110A starting from the peeled seal portion 120A when the wing portion W is unfolded.

[0067] However, the positional relationship between the position of the sealed portion 120A after peeling and the adhesive portion WS is not limited to this. For example, the adhesive portion WS11 in the Y direction of the adhesive portion WS1 provided on the first wing portion W1 may be formed to coincide with the minimum width position 1213, and the adhesive portion WS21 in the Y direction of the adhesive portion WS2 provided on the second wing portion W2 may be formed to coincide with the minimum width position 1223.

[0068] The non-adhesive portion having an expanded area, a reduced area, a minimum width position, and a maximum width position is not limited to the sealed portion 120A after peeling. For example, a non-adhesive portion having at least one of the expanded area and the reduced area may be provided at the contact area 10H where the packaging sheet 110A and the adhesive portion WS come into contact.

[0069] As described above, in the packaging 100A according to this embodiment, when the packaging sheet 110 is unfolded, the first seal portion 121A after peeling has an expanding region 1211 formed in the X direction of the packaging sheet 110 such that its width widens along the extending direction of the first seal portion 121A, from one side (third end 113 side) to the other side (fourth end 114 side) of the two opposing sides in the Y direction, and a decreasing region 1212 formed in the extending direction of the first seal portion 121A such that its width narrows along the extending direction of the first seal portion 121A, from one side (third end 113 side) to the other side (fourth end 114 side) of the two opposing sides in the Y direction. Furthermore, the second seal portion 122A after peeling has an expanding region 1221 formed in the X direction of the packaging sheet 110, extending from one side (third end 113 side) to the other side (fourth end 114 side) of the two opposing sides in the Y direction, with the width increasing along the extending direction of the second seal portion 122A, and a decreasing region 1222 formed in the Y direction, extending from one side (third end 113 side) to the other side (fourth end 114 side) of the two opposing sides in the Y direction, with the width decreasing along the extending direction of the second seal portion 122A. The expanding region 1211 and the decreasing region 1212 are formed alternately along the extending direction of the first seal portion 121A, and the expanding region 1221 and the decreasing region 1222 are formed alternately along the extending direction of the second seal portion 122A. According to this, when the adhesive part WS adheres to any part of the packaging sheet 110 including the seal part 120, it becomes easier to partially peel it off, creating a part that is easy for the user to grasp. Therefore, it becomes easier to peel off the adhered adhesive part WS, starting from the contact point between the seal part 120A and the adhesive part WS after peeling.

[0070] Furthermore, in the packaging 100A of this embodiment, the first sealing portion 121A has a minimum width position 1213 and a maximum width position 1214, and the second sealing portion 122A has a minimum width position 1223 and a maximum width position 1224. Also, in the Y direction of the napkin 1, the Y-direction end WS11 of the adhesive portion WS1 provided on the first wing portion W1 coincides with the maximum width position 1214, and the Y-direction end WS21 of the adhesive portion WS2 provided on the second wing portion W2 coincides with the maximum width position 1224. As a result, the Y-direction end of the adhesive portion WS becomes the relatively easiest part to peel off within the adhesive portion WS, so even when the adhesive portion WS comes into contact with the sealing portion 120A after peeling, the effect of making it easier to peel the adhesive portion WS from the packaging sheet 110 can be obtained.

[0071] <Embodiment 2> Figure 7 is a plan view of the wing portion W of the absorbent article according to Embodiment 2 in an unfolded state. The packaging 100B according to Embodiment 2 will be described below using Figure 7. In this modified example, the differences from the packaging 100 described using Figures 1 to 4 and the packaging 100A described using Figures 5 to 6 will be the main focus of the explanation. In addition, elements of the packaging 100B that are common to both the packaging 100 and the packaging 100A will be given the same reference numerals, and their detailed explanations will be omitted.

[0072] In this modified example, when the wing portion W is unfolded, the adhesive portion WS is provided on the part of the packaging sheet 110 that protrudes outward from the X-direction end of the sealed portion 120 after peeling. In this modified example, the entire contact area 10W is formed as a non-adhesive portion 11W. In other words, the adhesive portion WS is not provided in the area where the packaging sheet 110 and the wing portion W come into contact (contact area 10), and the entire contact area 10W is formed as a non-adhesive portion 11W.

[0073] However, the adhesive portion WS is not limited to the wing portion W. For example, the adhesive portion may be provided in the crotch area 1B. Depending on the configuration, it is also possible to form the entire contact area 10W as a non-adhesive area 11W without providing an adhesive area WS on the wing portion W.

[0074] As described above, in the packaging body 100B according to this embodiment, when the wing portion W is unfolded in the unfolded state of the packaging sheet 110, the area where the wing portion W and the packaging sheet 110 come into contact is defined as the contact area 10, and the area of ​​the contact area 10 on the wing side is defined as the contact area 10W. The area excluding the adhesive portion WS is defined as the non-adhesive portion 11W, so that the entire contact area 10W is formed of the non-adhesive portion 11W. As a result, the adhesive portion WS and the packaging sheet 110 do not come into contact, and therefore the packaging sheet 110 does not stick to the adhesive portion WS.

[0075] In the packaging 100B according to this embodiment, the adhesive portion WS is provided on the portion of the wing portion W that extends outward in the X direction from the packaging sheet 110 when the packaging sheet 110 and the wing portion W are unfolded. As a result, the adhesive portion WS and the packaging sheet 110 do not come into contact, and therefore the packaging sheet 110 does not stick to the adhesive portion WS.

[0076] While embodiments of the present invention have been described above, each embodiment disclosed herein can be combined with any other features disclosed herein. [Explanation of Symbols]
