Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an absorbent article, such as a diaper, incontinence guard or like article, that includes a liquid barrier or a sealing edge.
  • An absorbent article includes, among other things, a bottom liquid-impermeable sheet, or backing sheet, an absorbent sheet disposed thereon, and a top, surface sheet which is intended to lie proximal to the wearer in use.
  • the absorbent article concerned is a diaper or an incontinence guard
  • the article will also include flexible side flaps that extend laterally beyond the absorbent body on both sides thereof and elastic devices that extend longitudinally along the free side-edges of the side-flaps at least within that part of the absorbent body which forms the crotch part of the article in use, said flaps and elastic devices enabling the absorbent article to be fitted to the wearer .
  • a number of absorbent articles also include additional, inner liquid-barriers or cuffs fastened in the proximity of the longitudinal edges of the article concerned.
  • the purpose of the liquid barrier is to prevent liquid from leaking out at the edges of the absorbent article, and possibly also to prevent the escape of solids, such as faeces.
  • This second or additional liquid barrier is placed inwardly of the leg elastic, i.e. inwardly of the outer liquid barrier, and is comprised of an essentially liquid- impermeable material, for instance a nonwoven material.
  • the liquid barrier comprises a web of material whose one longitudinally extending edge is attached to the absorbent article and the other, free-edge of which is intended to lie against the wearer's skin.
  • the free edge is elastically puckered or gathered together with the aid of an elastic element, such as a rubber thread, that is folded-in in the edge of the web.
  • an elastic element such as a rubber thread
  • EP-A1-0 534 488 describes sealing gaskets which are preformed to extend outward from the central part of an absorbent article, which is illustrated by a sanitary napkin in the description of the preferred embodiment.
  • the gaskets may be formed by looping a strip of material, such as a non- woven material, so as to form a compliant cuff which bears against the user's body in a comfortable manner.
  • the gaskets are attached directly to the edges of the absorbent article, one edge of the gasket strip is attached to the upper sheet of the absorbent article and the other edge to the lower sheet.
  • the looping of the material form cavitities for imparting compliancy and stability to the gaskets and the looping may also enclose elastic elements that are placed in tension when applied to the article so as to impart an arcuate shape to the article.
  • the gasket material is an elastic material which is attached to the longitudinally edges of the sanitary napkin. The material is placed in tension when applied to the sanitary napkin. The purpose of doing so is to impart an arcuate shape to the article.
  • the curvature is obtained by applying elastic segments only to the end sections of the sanitary napkin. No elastic is applied to the middle section of the napkin. In this embodiment the napkin will get a substantially straight middle section and arcuate end sections.
  • the sanitary napkin is placed in a panty crotch during use and is pressed against the wearer by the force from the panty.
  • the force applied from the sanitary napkin against the wearer is indirectly caused by pressure from the panty.
  • the gasket embodiments including elastic elements do not cause the force against the body of the wearer.
  • the purpose of the elastic elements, if they are used, are to impart an arcuate shape.
  • This absorbent article differs from the diaper or incontinence guard according to the invention with a barrier element presenting an essentially smooth edge which is subjeted to the greatest strain by an abrupt discharge of liquid fluid. In the inventive article the barrier element will get stretched against the wearer during use and thereby creating a liquid barrier with a good sealing effect. It is the body of the user which makes the elastic device in the barrier to get tensioned.
  • the barrier In the case of diapers that include liquid barriers or cuffs, the barrier will be positioned so as to lie against the wearer's thighs and buttocks, such as to prevent leakage in these areas. Each urine discharge will deliver a certain volume of liquid to the article. Because of the delay that occurs before this urine is able to penetrate through the upper sheet and be absorbed in the absorbent layer, a certain amount of urine will "float" in the absorbent article, on top of the surface sheet. It is this volume of urine that the barrier is intended to contain at the edges of the absorbent article.
  • this barrier is not completely proof against leakage and that liquid is able to escape at the elastically puckered edge that lies against the wearer's skin. Because the barrier edge that lies against the wearer's skin is puckered, there form at the contact surface between the barrier and the wearer's skin small through-penetrating pores or passageways through which liquid is able to escape. If the barrier is extended, i.e. stretched, to a greater extent, the barrier will be puckered to a lesser degree. The barrier will, however, then be stretched hard against the wearer's thighs, which causes discomfort and reduces flexibility as the wearer moves.
  • the object of the present invention is to solve this problem.
  • the present invention relates to an absorbent article, such as a diaper, incontinence guard or like article, that includes a bottom liquid-impermeable sheet, an absorbent sheet, and an upper liquid-permeable sheet which is intended to lie proximal to the wearer in use, said sheets being delimited by two generally longitudinal and two generally transversal edges, and at least one elongated liquid barrier which is fastened to the bottom and/or the top sheet along the major part of the two longitudinally extending edges on each side of the longitudinal centre line of the top liquid-permeable sheet, wherewith the liquid barrier includes at least one elastic device and a barrier web of essentially liquid-impermeable and essentially inelastic material that has a longitudinally extending free edge which is intended to lie against the wearer in use and which is puckered or gathered together by said elastic device, wherein the inventive article is characterized in that the free edge of the barrier web includes puckered edge-parts and a substantially smooth or non- puckered edge-part such that the liquid barrier presents an essentially smooth
  • the invention also relates to an absorbent article that includes an essentially liquid- impermeable sheet which is intended to lie proximal to the wearer in use and which is delimited by two generally longitudinal and two generally transversal edges and provided with elastic means functioning to shape the article to the wearer's body, wherewith said sheet includes an elongated aperture which is intended to fit around or register with the anus and the urethra orifice of the user, wherewith an elastically puckered sealing edge is provided in the essentially liquid-impermeable sheet around said aperture, wherewith an absorbent body is provided on that side of the essentially liquid-impermeable sheet that lies distal from the wearer, wherewith the absorbent body is enclosed between a liquid-permeable sheet on the side proximal to the wearer, and a liquid-impermeable sheet, and wherein the inventive article is characterized in that the sealing edge includes puckered edge-parts and substantially smooth or non-puckered edge-parts such that the sealing edge will present a substantially smooth contact surface against the
  • the non-puckered edge-parts will preferably constitute about 40-65% of the full length of the sealing edge, for instance about 50%.
  • the present invention thus provides an article which includes a liquid barrier or sealing edge that will present an essentially smooth edge, in the absence of through- penetrating pores or passageways, within that part of the edge which is subjected to the greatest strain by an abrupt discharge of liquid or fluid, i.e. within the crotch part of a diaper or an incontinence guard.
  • the substantially smooth edge may be formed by an edge which is slightly puckered by weak elastic that can be readily stretched when the article is donned.
  • the free barrier edge or sealing edge In order for the barrier to shape to and seal tightly against a wearer and also to enable the barrier to be used by persons of mutually different sizes, it is necessary for the free barrier edge or sealing edge to lie against the wearer at a given pressure and also that the edge can be stretched. This is achieved in a conventional article, by fastening one or more elastic threads in said barrier edge or sealing edge so as to pucker said edge.
  • the centre part of the free edge is not puckered therewith acchieving better abutment with the wearer within this barrier part. So that the smooth part of the barrier edge will shape to and be stretched firmly against the wearer, the outer parts of the barrier edge, or sealing edge, i.e. those parts that lie proximal to respective transverse edges of the article, are heavily puckered.
  • the inventive article may, alternatively, be constructed so that the free edge or sealing edge of the barrier web is divided into parts that are puckered heavily to different extents.
  • the edge is lightly puckered with the aid of a weak elastic element and heavily puckered in the extremities of said edge with the aid of a stronger and more elastic element.
  • a barrier element according to the invention When a barrier element according to the invention is used in an absorbent article such as a diaper or an incontinence guard, the body of the wearer directs the tensioning of the elastic device in the barrier element.
  • the elastic is tensioned during use. This is necessary for the function of the barrier element in the absorbent article.
  • the body of the wearer decides how much the elastic device will be tensioned.
  • the elastic part will direct the barrier uppwards against the body and the body makes the barrier stretched during use. It is the tensioning from the body which makes the barrier sealing against the body. This differs from the sealing gasket described in EP-A1-0 534 488, wherein the elastic part of the gasket remain in the same tension irrespective of the size of the wearer.
  • the elastic part does not raise the barrier, the main purpose for the elastic part in the gasket is to impart an arcuate form to the sanitary napkin. Besides, the elastic part is not necessary in the gasket.
  • the force applied from the sanitary napkin against the wearer is indirectly caused by pressure from the panty, in which the sanitary napkin is placed. Also, the gasket will remain in the same tension irrespective of the size of the wearer.
