Description

  The present invention relates to an absorbent pad holder for use with an excrement absorbent pad.

  In recent years, various underpants-type absorption pad holders have been proposed that are used in combination with an incontinence absorption pad to bring the absorption pad into close contact with the body (for example, see Patent Document 1 below).

  In the technique described in Patent Document 1, the holder is formed of a seamless knitted material or a woven material, and is provided so as to be elastically deformable in all three-dimensional directions such as an up-down direction, a left-right direction, a front-rear direction, and an oblique direction. It is provided so that it can be in close contact with each part of the human body with an appropriate tightening feeling.

  However, this holder is made of a highly stretchable material that can be elastically deformed in all directions like stockings, so when you try to put the holder on the body and pull it up, it is between the crotch part of the body and the crotch of the holder Since the floating occurs between the portions, the adhesion of the absorbent pad cannot be obtained, and there is a risk of leakage. On the other hand, when the holder is formed of a material having a low elongation, the attachment / detachment property such as difficulty in pulling up the holder is deteriorated, and the fit property of the holder itself to the body may be deteriorated.

  In Patent Document 2 below, as a sanitary short with a sanitary napkin in close contact with the crotch portion, the front body, the back body, the crotch portion positioned between them, and the upper edge of the front body and the back body It is a stretchable material that has a waistline formed, a pair of leg openings are formed under the joints of the side edges of the front body and the back body, and extends from the front body to the crotch and back body A formed lifting member is provided, and the lifting member is formed so that the width dimension gradually decreases from the waistline part toward the crotch part in the back body, and at least in the crotch part extends from both sides of the lifting member to the leg openings. A sanitary short has been proposed in which an extended cloth of non-stretchable material is provided. However, since this sanitary short has a leg opening part above the crotch part, it is applied to an absorbent pad holder that has a crotch part that extends downward from the crotch part and has a thigh opening part at the lower end (tip). In such a case, there is a possibility that improvement of the wearability and the fit of the holder to the body cannot be obtained.

  This invention is made | formed in view of the said subject, and it aims at providing the absorption pad holder which is easy to attach or detach and is excellent in the fit property to a body.

  The present invention is an absorbent pad holder for adhering an excretion absorbent pad to a body, comprising an upper crotch having a trunk opening at the upper end and a crotch lower having a thigh opening at the lower end. When the upper part is divided into an upper region, a vertical center region, and a lower region in the vertical direction, at least the lower region and / or the crotch portion excluding the upper region has anti-extension means for suppressing longitudinal elongation. The object is achieved by providing an absorbent pad holder.

  The absorbent pad holder of the present invention is easy to attach and detach and has excellent fit to the body. Therefore, the adhesion of the absorbent pad to the body is excellent.

The present invention will be described below based on preferred embodiments with reference to the drawings.
FIG.1 and FIG.2 is the schematic diagram which showed one Embodiment of the absorption pad holder of this invention.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the absorbent pad holder 1 of the present embodiment is for adhering the excrement absorbent pad 10 to the body, and has a crotch portion 2 having a trunk opening 20 at the upper end and a thigh at the lower end. And a crotch part 3 having an opening 30, and has a so-called trunks type configuration. Here, the crotch part 2 refers to the part above the crotch crack part, and the crotch part 3 refers to the part below it. The crotch part 2 does not include the elastic body 4 around the waist.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the absorbent pad holder 1 of the present embodiment is divided into three equal parts in the upper region 21, the vertical center region 22, and the lower region 23 in the crotch portion 2 in the unused state (non-stretched state). When divided into two, the lower region 23 and the crotch portion 3 excluding the upper region 21 have anti-extension means 5 for suppressing longitudinal elongation.

  The anti-extension means 5 has the anti-extension means 5 at least in the side areas 2A and 2C when the crotch part 2 is divided into the horizontal central area 2B and the side areas 2A and 2C in three equal parts. It is preferable to have the anti-extension means 5 in the lateral central region 2B and the side regions 2A, 2C as in the present embodiment. By having the anti-extension means 5 at least in the side region, it is possible to further prevent the above-described crotch portion from being lifted by the side region remaining on the thigh when pulled up. The absorbent pad holder 1 is provided with anti-extension means 5 not only on the ventral side but also on the dorsal side, but since the form is basically the same, only the ventral side will be described in the following description. . The anti-extension means 5 is preferably at least on the ventral side. In particular, when the wearer's knee is bent, for example, the above-described crotch portion can be further prevented from being lifted by the holder remaining on the raised portion (the knee kid) around the knee.

  One end portion (lower end portion) of the anti-extension means 5 is preferably joined to the thigh opening 30 of the crotch portion 3 from the viewpoint of further preventing the crotch portion from being lifted. In the present embodiment, the other end (upper end) of the anti-extension means 5 is joined to the longitudinal central region 22. Since the upper end portion of the anti-extension means 5 does not reach the upper region 21, the followability when the waist is bent or stretched is maintained, and it is possible to prevent the slipping down when sitting.

  In the absorbent pad holder 1 of the present embodiment, the anti-extension means 5 is provided by sewing a plurality of inelastic yarns 50 to the lower region 23 and the crotch 3 in the vertical direction at predetermined intervals.

  The non-elastic yarn 50 refers to a yarn that does not extend to 1.5 times the original length (breaks before 1.5 times extension). Examples of preferable inelastic yarn 50 include synthetic fibers such as silk yarn, cotton yarn, wool yarn, and polyester, and blended yarns and blended yarns thereof.

  In the absorbent pad holder 1 of the present embodiment, the crotch portion 2 and the crotch portion 3 are preferably formed of a single (one type) net-like cloth. Preferable net-like fabrics include fabrics knitted with synthetic fibers or natural fibers and having a longitudinal elongation of 35 to 120% and a lateral elongation of preferably 30 to 90%. Examples of synthetic fibers include polyester and polyamide. Examples of the net-like cloth include cloth made of 80% by mass of polyester and 20% by mass of polyurethane.

<Measurement method of longitudinal and lateral elongation of body cloth>
The side regions 2A and 2C are cut out from the pad holder to be measured so as to have a dimension of 50 mm in the lateral direction S, and the cut out samples are used as measurement samples. The measurement sample is attached to the chuck of the tensile tester so that the longitudinal direction L is the tensile direction. The distance between chucks is the sample length (mm) -10 mm (chuck the front and rear ends of the sample 5 mm). Pull the measurement sample at 300 mm / min, and use the length when the measurement sample is stretched when the load value is 1.0 N (the length of the sample positioned between the chucks when stretched). The elongation (longitudinal elongation) at a load of 1.0 N / 50 mm is obtained.
Elongation (%) = [(Length during elongation (mm) −Distance between chucks (mm)) / Distance between chucks (mm)] × 100
Further, from the pad holder, the side regions 2A, 2C are cut out so as to have a dimension of 50 mm in the vertical direction L, and this is used as a measurement sample. Attached to the chuck of the tensile tester, the elongation at the time of 1.0 N / 50 mm load in the lateral direction S (lateral elongation) is obtained by the same procedure as above.

  The length L2 of the crotch part 2 in the absorbent pad holder 1 is preferably 160 to 320 mm, and more preferably 180 to 300 mm. Moreover, 0-100 mm is preferable and, as for length L3 of the crotch part 3, 10-50 mm is more preferable. Here, the length of the crotch portion 2 and the crotch portion 3 refers to the length in the natural state of non-stretched (non-wearing) and non-stretched (non-wearing).

  The absorbent pad holder 1 has a crotch part 2 and a crotch part 3 formed of a single net-like fabric, and the inelastic yarn 50 is elongated in the lower region 23 and the crotch part 3 with an interval of about 30 mm in the width direction. It is stitched along the direction.

  Although there is no restriction | limiting in particular in the absorption pad used with the absorption pad holder 1 of this embodiment, when the adhesiveness to a body is considered, the product width of the longitudinal direction center part is made smaller than the product width of the front and back ends, The outer shape is preferably an hourglass shape.

  When using the absorbent pad holder 1 of the present embodiment to attach the above-mentioned absorbent pad to the body, first, the absorbent pad holder is mounted on the knee, and in this state, the absorbent pad is mounted on the crotch. Then, the absorption pad holder is pulled up in the upper body direction until the lower region 23 is in close contact with the body.

  As described above, the absorbent pad holder 1 according to the present embodiment has the anti-extension means 5 in the lower region 23 and the crotch 3, and the portion does not extend excessively when being attached or detached, and no gap is generated. Therefore, even if the crotch part 2 and the crotch part 3 are formed of a highly breathable net-like fabric, it is easy to attach and detach, the occurrence of lifting of the crotch part is suppressed, and the fit to the body after wearing is excellent. .

The present invention is not limited to the embodiment.
The absorbent pad holder of the present invention is provided with the anti-extension means by stitching the inelastic thread to the lower region and the crotch part as in the above embodiment, but the anti-extension means is not limited to this. For example, the non-elastic sheet may be sewn instead of the non-elastic thread. Preferred non-extensible sheets include a low density polyethylene film (LDPE), a high density polyethylene film (HDPE), a polypropylene film, and laminates thereof.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the anti-extension means is provided in the lateral central region and the side region. However, in the lower region of the lateral central region, the leak-proof sheet is disposed so as to cover almost the entire region, and at least the periphery thereof. If the part is sewn, it can be provided only in the side region. In these cases, the effect of further preventing the crotch portion from being lifted is obtained while improving the leakage prevention effect.

  The absorbent pad holder of the present invention can be used regardless of gender.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to examples.
