Detailed Description

When the absorbent articles are stacked in layers in the vertical direction and stored in the package, wrinkles may occur in the package corresponding to the portion between the layers of the stacked absorbent articles.

When wrinkles are generated in the package, the appearance is degraded, which may reduce the quality of the product, or the visibility may be degraded, for example, information printed on the package is not easily visible. Further, when arranging the products in a shop or the like, the package is bent at a portion corresponding to a space between the layers, and thus the products cannot be displayed neatly.

On the other hand, it is considered to improve the rigidity of the entire package, but if the rigidity of the entire package is improved, there is a possibility that the package will be large in size while maintaining its original size even if the internal volume is reduced during use, or the package cannot be folded small when disposed of after use.

The present invention relates to a package for storing absorbent articles, which solves the above-described problems and is convenient to use when displaying, transporting, or keeping in stores or the like, and when taking out absorbent articles.

(first embodiment)

A package 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 1 and 2. Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing a product 101 using a package 10.

Fig. 2 is a partial sectional view of the package 10. The product 101 is an embodiment of the absorbent article packaging structure of the present invention, and a plurality of absorbent articles are stored in a stacked state inside the package 10. Specifically, the absorbent article is stored in the package 10 in a state where a plurality of stacked layers are formed into a plurality of layers in the vertical direction. The number of layers in the vertical direction in which a plurality of layers of the absorbent article are stacked may be 3 or 4 instead of 2 as shown in fig. 2.

The package 10 is formed as a product 101 by storing a plurality of diapers 100 (absorbent articles) inside the package 10 as shown in fig. 1. The absorbent article contained in the package 10 is assumed to be the diaper 100, but may be another absorbent article such as a sanitary napkin.

The package 10 is formed of a bag-like packaging base material 11 capable of housing a predetermined amount of diapers 100. The packaging base material 11 is formed of a flexible sheet made of synthetic resin, more specifically, a film member (film) made of synthetic resin, has a top surface 11a, a bottom surface 11b, a front surface 11c, a back surface 11d, and left and right side surfaces 11e and 11f, and is formed into a substantially rectangular parallelepiped bag shape when expanded while accommodating an absorbent article therein. The top surface 11a faces the bottom surface 11b, and the front surface 11c and the back surface 11d form 4 side surfaces connecting the bottom surface 11b and the top surface 11a together with the left and right side surfaces 11e and 11 f.

The flexible sheet of synthetic resin forming the packaging base material 11 is made of, for example, polyamide, polyester, polybutylene terephthalate, polyethylene terephthalate, or the like. The flexible sheet made of synthetic resin may have a single-layer structure or a double-layer structure. Further, an aluminum deposited layer for improving light-shielding property and moisture-proof property may be provided between the layers.

A coating layer is partially applied to the packaging base material 11, and a plurality of regions having different rigidity values are formed in the package 10. The coating layer is provided on, for example, the inner surface or the outer surface or both surfaces of the packaging base material 11 in a region where the rigidity of the package 10 is to be increased.

In the package 10 of the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, a clad layer (a printed layer 12 and a first matte printed layer 13) is applied to the package base material 11, and the rigidity of the package 10 differs depending on the portion (region) due to the clad layer. The clad layer will be described later.

In forming the region having a high rigidity value, the covering layer having the printed layer 12 and the first matte printed layer 13 may be provided on the outer surface of the packaging substrate 11 at a portion where rigidity is to be improved, or the printed layer 12 may be applied to the entire region of the packaging substrate 11, and the covering layer including the first matte printed layer 13 may be provided on the printed layer 12 at a portion where rigidity is to be improved.

The top surface 11a of the package 10 is provided with a grip portion 14 and a break line 16 for opening.

The front surface 11c, the back surface 11d, and the left and right side surfaces 11e and 11f of the package 10 are provided with a logo or a photograph showing a product name or a type of a product through the printed layer 12 and/or the first matte printed layer 13.

The grip portion 14 is attached to the top surface 11a substantially at the center in the front-rear direction along the lateral width direction of the top surface 11 a. The opening break line 16 is a weakened line that is processed to easily break the top surface 11a of the package 10, and is formed at the lower portion of the grip portion 14. The position of the opening break line 16 is not limited to the lower portion of the grip portion 14.

A plurality of diapers 100 are housed in a package 10 in a state where the diapers 100 are erected, and further, the diapers 100 are housed in an erected state on the diapers 100, and the upper and lower 2 layers are housed in the package 10. The storage state in the package 10 can be changed as appropriate depending on the type, size, and the like of the product stored in the package 10 such as the diaper 100.

Next, the clad layer in the present embodiment will be described in detail.

As shown in fig. 2, the clad layer in the present embodiment is formed by laminating a printed layer 12 and a first matte printed layer 13 in this order from the inside to the outside of a package base material 11. Further, a second matte printed layer 15 is appropriately provided on the inner side of the packaging base material 11.

The printed layer 12 is a layer printed with ink provided on the outer surface side of the packaging substrate 11, and displays information and other contents relating to the diaper 100. Specifically, for example, various information such as the size and number of diapers 100 packaged in the package 10, patterns, and the like.

The printing layer 12 is formed by partially coating an ink composition containing carbon black, diamine, polyol, a curing agent, an organic solvent, and the like on the outer surface side of the packaging base material 11 by, for example, a gravure printing method. The organic solvent includes, for example, toluene, and the like, and is volatilized after printing. The curing agent includes, for example, isocyanate and the like.

The first matte printed layer 13 is a layer formed by matte printing. The first matte printed layer 13 is formed to have a substantially uniform thickness over the entire outer surface of the packaging substrate 11 except for a predetermined portion. The region to which the first matte printed layer 13 is applied is formed as a region of high rigidity. For example, after the first matte printed layer 13 is applied to a film having a rigidity of 242cN and comprising the packaging substrate 11 and the printed layer 12, a film having a rigidity of 262cN comprising the packaging substrate 11, the printed layer 12 and the first matte printed layer 13 is obtained. The rigidity is a value obtained by a ring crush method (ring crush method).

As shown in fig. 2, the first matte printed layer 13 is formed by containing a granular matte agent 13n in a resin 13 m. The resin 13m includes, for example, an acrylic resin, an epoxy resin, a polyurethane resin, a polyolefin resin, a fluorine resin, a phenoxy resin, or the like.

Examples of the matte agent 13n include silica, alumina, calcium oxide, calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, calcium silicate, and carbon black. One kind of them can be used alone or two or more kinds can be used in combination.

The first matte printed layer 13 and the second matte printed layer 15 are not implemented in the a region and the B region shown in fig. 1. The area a is formed, for example, in 2 strips at each position trisecting the longitudinal length of the package 10 in the front surface 11 c. The region a has a length of several mm to several tens of mm in the longitudinal direction and a length almost close to the entire width of the package 10 in the transverse direction. The region a is also formed on the back surface 11d and the left and right side surfaces 11e and 11f of the package 10 in the same manner as the front surface 11 c.

The region B is formed in a rectangular shape at substantially the center of the top surface 11a in the front-rear direction, that is, at a position corresponding to the lower portion of the grip portion 14. A break line 16 for opening is provided substantially in the center of the region B. The areas a and B are only provided with the printed layer 12 on the outer surface side of the packaging base material 11. The a and B regions correspond to regions of low rigidity.

The second matte printed layer 15 is formed on the inner surface of the packaging substrate 11, with the resin 13m containing the particulate matte agent 13n, similarly to the first matte printed layer 13. The second matte printed layer 15 may not be formed in the package 10. In the region where the first matte printed layer 13 and the second matte printed layer 15 are formed on the front and back surfaces, the rigidity of the packaging base material 11 is higher than the rigidity of the package 10 in the region where either one of the first matte printed layer 13 and the second matte printed layer 15 is formed.

[ measuring method of rigidity ]

A method of measuring the rigidity of the package 10 will be described. First, a measurement sample was cut out by the following method. The package 10 was placed with the grip 14 on the upper side, and 5 rectangular samples having a vertical direction of 30mm and a horizontal direction of 150mm were cut out from the package 10.

Each sample was stacked 5mm at both ends in the longitudinal direction so that the longitudinal direction thereof became the circumferential direction to prepare a cylinder having a diameter of approximately 45mm, and 2 portions of the upper end (upper end in the axial direction of the cylinder) and the lower end of the stacked portion at both ends were fixed with staples (e.g., a MAX co., No.10-1M manufactured by ltd.) to obtain a cylindrical measurement sample. The direction of the needles is parallel to the circumferential direction.

The obtained measurement sample (initial sample width; 30mm) was set in a TENSILON compression tester ("RTA-100" manufactured by ORIENTEC CO., LTD. (manufactured by Koka オリエンテック)), and the maximum load exhibited when the sample was compressed at a compression rate of 10 mm/min in the axial direction of the cylinder (the width direction of the sample) by a circular compression plate having a diameter of 70mm or more was measured. The same measurement was performed for all 5 samples, and the average value thereof was calculated.

The rigidity of the high-rigidity region of the package 10 is preferably 200cN or more, more preferably 250cN or more, further preferably 500cN or less, more preferably 400cN or less, and further preferably 200 to 500cN, more preferably 250 to 400cN, from the viewpoint of satisfying both the soft texture (not becoming too hard) and the self-standing property of the package.

The rigidity of the low rigidity region of the package 10 is preferably 100cN or more, more preferably 150cN or more, further preferably 300cN or less, more preferably 250cN or less, and preferably 100cN or more and 300cN or less, more preferably 150cN or more and 250cN or less, from the viewpoint of easy bendability during packaging (Packer) and prevention of occurrence of wrinkles.

The difference in rigidity between the high rigidity region and the low rigidity region is preferably 10cN or more, more preferably 20cN or more, further preferably 150cN or less, further preferably 100cN or less, and further preferably 50cN or less, from the viewpoint of satisfying both the self-supporting property and the flexibility of the package. Preferably 10 to 150cN, more preferably 20 to 100cN, and still more preferably 20 to 50 cN.

The rigidity of the package 10 can be changed by adjusting the density by adjusting the amount of the matte material or the number of lines of the printing plate. Further, by changing the thickness of the packaging base material 11 partially, a high rigidity region and a low rigidity region can be formed in the package 10. The rigidity of the package 10 can be adjusted by, for example, changing the matte density and/or the number of printed lines of the matte printed layer 13 and adjusting the density of the irregularities formed on the surface. The matte concentration refers to the concentration of the matte agent 13n in the resin 13m of the matte printing layer 13. By increasing the concentration, the rigidity can be increased. The print line number is the density of the matte print layer 13 printed on the print layer 12. The rigidity can be increased by increasing the number of printing lines.

In the package 10, the first matte printed layer 13 is formed on substantially the entire surface of the package 10 except for the regions a and B, thereby increasing the rigidity of the entire package base 11. Since the regions a are provided at positions away from the boundaries of the upper and lower layers of the diaper 100, that is, at the position 1/3 in the longitudinal direction of the package 10, the rigidity at the positions of the boundaries of the upper and lower layers of the diaper 100, that is, at the center in the longitudinal direction of the package 10, can be maintained high.

As a result, the product 101 in which the diaper 100 is contained in the package 10 is less likely to wrinkle at the surface of the boundary between the upper and lower layers of the diaper 100. Further, since the product 101 is easily self-standing, the work of putting the product 101 on a cardboard, the display in a shop, or the like is easy. Further, since the outer shape of the package 10 can be maintained, it is easy to carry the package, and it is easy to transport the package when the purchaser returns to his/her home. The second matte printed layer 15 may be provided on the inner side of the package 10 at a desired position such as the center in the longitudinal direction of the package 10. In this way, the rigidity of the package 10 at the center in the longitudinal direction is greater than that when only the first matte printed layer 13 is applied, and wrinkles at the center or the like can be further prevented.

In addition, since the rigidity of the packaging base material 11 is low in the region a, the package 10 can be easily folded along the region a, and the package 10 can be easily folded after use, so that the package 10 can be easily discarded.

In the package 10, the periphery of the opening break line 16 of the package 10 is formed to have lower rigidity than the B region, and therefore the package 10 is broken at the opening break line 16, and opening is facilitated. The periphery of the opening break line 16 is an area within a certain range with the opening break line 16 as the center.

Further, since the periphery of the opening part line 16 is formed to have low rigidity after the package 10 is ruptured at the opening part line 16, the opening part line 16 is soft to the touch when the diaper 100 is taken out, and the feeling of use is improved.

(second embodiment)

Next, another embodiment of the package 10 will be described with reference to fig. 3. In the structure of the package 10b, the same components as those of the package 10 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted. The same applies to the embodiments described later.

As shown in fig. 3, in the package 10b, the first matte printed layer 13 is formed on the surface of the package base 11 along a portion where corners of the package base 11, that is, a plane such as the front surface 11c intersect with each other. Therefore, in the package 10b, the first matte printed layer 13 is formed on the corner portions extending in the longitudinal direction at the four corners of the package 10b and the entire rectangular edge portions of the top surface 11a and the bottom surface 11 b.

When the first matte printed layer 13 is formed at each corner portion of the package 10b in this manner, the package 10b can easily maintain the rectangular parallelepiped shape, and the occurrence of wrinkles on the surface of the package 10b can be suppressed.

In the case of this package 10b, since the corner portions of the four corners of the package 10b are supported by the first matte printed layer 13 after the product 101 is purchased and the top surface of the package 10b is opened, the package is easily self-standing even after the opening, and it becomes easy to take out the diaper 100 from the opened package 10 b.

The width of the first matte printed layer 13 formed on the packaging substrate 11 is set to a value such that the package 10b can maintain a proper self-standing property by the first matte printed layer 13. The values are not the same in the entire package 10b, and may be different values. For example, the lateral width of the first matte printed layer 13 may be set to be large at the lower portion of the package 10b and smaller toward the upper portion. In this way, the rigidity of the package 10b is increased at the lower portion, and the stability of the package 10b can be improved.

(third embodiment)

Next, another embodiment of the package 10 will be described with reference to fig. 4. In the package 10c, the first matte printed layer 13 is provided at each corner portion of the package base material 11, as in the package 10b of the second embodiment, and in addition thereto, as shown in fig. 4, the first matte printed layer 13 is provided at the center in the longitudinal direction of the package 10c, that is, at a position between the layers of the diapers 100 stored in the package 10c in the upper and lower 2 layers. The first matte printed layer 13 in the intermediate portion is formed in a linear shape along the outer periphery of the package 10c in the lateral direction of the package 10 c.

According to this package 10c, the first matte printed layer 13 in the middle portion is formed to have high rigidity, and wrinkles are less likely to occur between the layers of the diaper 100 stored in the upper and lower 2-layer manner. When the diaper 100 is used and the diaper 100 on the upper layer is taken out from the package 10c, the package 10c can be folded in the low-rigidity region other than the first matte printed layer 13.

As a result, the package 10c is less likely to wrinkle, and the package 10c can be folded neatly on the top surface of the diaper 100 on the lower layer during use, and the product 101 can be stored and kept comfortably even during use.

(fourth embodiment)

Next, another embodiment of the package 10 will be described with reference to fig. 5. As shown in fig. 5, in this package 10d, a first matte print layer 13 is formed on substantially the entire surface of the package base 11 except for a region C substantially at the center in the longitudinal direction of the package 10d, that is, the entire circumference of the package 10d between the upper and lower diaper 100 layers. According to this example, the package 10d can be folded neatly with the C region where the first matte printed layer 13 is not provided as a boundary during use.

(fifth embodiment)

Next, another embodiment of the package 10 will be described with reference to fig. 6. This package 10e has the first matte printed layer 13 applied to substantially the entire surface of the package substrate 11 except for the region D. The region D is a region including only the packaging substrate 11 and/or the printed layer 12, and is provided on 4 surfaces of the front surface 11c and the back surface 11D and the left and right side surfaces 11e and 11f of the package 10 e.

The D region is linear and formed in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction perpendicular thereto. On the front face 11c and the back face 11d, 2 strips are provided in the longitudinal direction and the lateral direction, respectively. Each D region is disposed at a position 1/3 in the lateral direction of the package 10e in the longitudinal direction, and at a position 1/3 in the longitudinal direction of the package 10e in the lateral direction.

Further, the left and right side surfaces 11e and 11f are provided with 1 piece in the longitudinal direction and 2 pieces in the transverse direction. In the longitudinal direction, the respective package 10e is disposed at the center in the transverse direction of the side faces 11e and 11f, and is disposed at a position 1/3 in the longitudinal direction of the package 10e in the transverse direction.

According to this package 10e, since the rigidity between the layers of the diapers 100 stored in the upper and lower 2-layer manner is increased, wrinkles are less likely to occur. Further, when the diaper 100 is used and the diaper 100 on the upper layer is taken out from the package 10e or after use, the package 10e can be easily folded in the D region having low rigidity in the vertical and horizontal directions.

(sixth embodiment)

Next, another embodiment of the package 10 will be described with reference to fig. 7. This package 10f has a first matte printed layer 13 applied to substantially the entire surface of the packaging substrate 11 except for the region E. The region E is a region where only the packaging base material 11 is present, and is provided on 4 surfaces of the front surface 11c, the back surface 11d, and the left and right side surfaces 11E, 11f of the package 10 f.

The regions E in the front surface 11c and the back surface 11d are linear, do not intersect each other as shown in fig. 7, and are provided with 1 row in the longitudinal direction and 2 rows in the transverse direction, respectively, in the longitudinal direction and the transverse direction orthogonal thereto. In the region E of the front surface 11c and the back surface 11d, 3 strips are provided at the center of the package 10f in the longitudinal direction, and 2 strips are provided at 1/3 positions of the package 10f in the longitudinal direction in the transverse direction.

Further, 2 strips are provided on the left and right side surfaces 11e and 11f in the transverse direction, and are provided at positions 1/3 in the longitudinal direction of the package 10 f.

According to this package 10f, since the rigidity between the layers of the diapers 100 stored in the upper and lower 2-layer manner is increased, wrinkles are less likely to occur. In addition, since the region E does not continue or intersect with other lines, the self-standing property of the package 10f is improved. Further, when the diaper 100 in the upper layer is taken out from the package 10f or after use, the package 10f can be easily folded in the E region having low rigidity in the longitudinal and transverse directions.

The opening break line 16 may be provided directly below the top surface 11a of the package 10g, as in the package 10g shown in fig. 8. In this case, the opening cut line 16 may be provided over the entire circumference of the package 10g or may be provided over a part of the entire circumference. The periphery of the opening break line 16 is formed as a low rigidity region B. In this case, similarly to the package 10 of the first embodiment, the rigidity of the periphery of the opening break line 16 is made low, and the opening or the removal of the diaper 100 can be easily performed.

In the absorbent article packaging structure of the present invention, the packaging pressure inside the package is preferably 1.2kPa or more, more preferably 1.5kPa or more, preferably 2.5kPa or less, more preferably 2.2kPa or less, and further preferably 1.2kPa or more and 2.5kPa or less, and more preferably 1.5kPa or more and 2.2kPa or less, from the viewpoint of suppression of wrinkles and easiness of folding.

The package pressure inside the package is obtained by measuring the compression characteristics with respect to the thickness of the diaper and converting the measured compression characteristics into a load corresponding to the thickness of the diaper inside the package. Specifically, the package was compressed by Autograph (model AG-X, product of shimadzu corporation) until a load of 50kgf was applied in a state where 5 diapers were stacked, and the compression force (load) at the time when the thickness reached the same thickness as the thickness corresponding to 5 diapers in the package was taken as the package pressure. In this case, the diaper was taken out of the package and left for 10 hours or more at the time of measurement. The thickness of the diapers in the package was calculated from the package size and the number of the diapers to be put.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and specific embodiments may be variously modified. For example, in addition to the method of providing the matte printed layer, the high rigidity region and the low rigidity region of the package 10 may be provided by forming a low grammage portion by partially stretching the film constituting the package substrate 11, or may be formed by partially embossing the film.

The rigidity of the package is increased in the order of, for example, the cross-sectional structure of the package, which is formed only by the packaging base material 11 as shown in fig. 2; a case where the packaging substrate 11 and the printed layer 12 are formed; a case where the first matte printed layer 13 is formed by the packaging substrate 11; a case where the packaging substrate 11, the printed layer 12, and the first matte printed layer 13 are formed; the case where the packaging substrate 11, the printed layer 12, the first matte printed layer 13, and the second matte printed layer 15 are formed in this order becomes higher. The utility model discloses an among the packing body, 2 regions that the structure of having set up the cross-section of packing body is different each other can set up the regional that rigidity is higher locally, or set up the regional that rigidity is lower locally. The cross-sectional structure of the package may be provided in 3 or more regions having different structures from each other, and a region having a local rigidity higher than that of the other region or a region having a local rigidity lower than that of the other region may be provided. It is preferable that the region having a locally lower rigidity than the other region is smaller in area than the other region, and it is preferable that the region having a locally higher rigidity than the other region is smaller in area than the other region.

Industrial applicability

According to the package and the package structure of the absorbent article of the present invention, the rigidity value of a region of the package is higher than the rigidity value of other regions, and therefore the shape retention ability in the region is improved. Thus, for example, by increasing the rigidity of the region where wrinkles are likely to occur, wrinkles are not generated on the surface, and a package structure for an absorbent article having high self-standing properties can be provided.

Further, since the region having lower rigidity than the other regions is formed in the package body, the package body can be easily folded by the region having lower rigidity, and can be regularly and regularly folded at a desired position in accordance with a change in the content amount during use, and can be folded to a smaller size and discarded after use.
