Description

The The present invention relates to an arrangement of a plurality Moistened nonwoven cosmetic pads which are in a largely evaporative-resistant sealable packaging container are added stack-shaped for delivery to the end user, wherein the pads have an average moisture content of at least 200% of their Dry weight.

Out US 4,775,582 and the identical content EP 0 256 950 B1 and from this emerged US 4,833,033 and US 4,853,281 are wet wipes made of meltblown polyolefin fibers known. Although this document mentions a certain uniformity of the moisture content of the wet wipes. However, the use of natural cellulosic fibers is expressly presented as being disadvantageous, and instead the production of a nonwoven fabric from endless meltblown fibers is disclosed.

By the production process of meltblown fiber layers, in which the endless extruded fiber strands under hot air stretched and placed on each other in the not yet solidified state and thereby at the touch points be connected with each other a structurally stable structure of a considered advantageous Pore size of 20 up to 60 μm reach where the liquid of wet wipes can also be stored permanently. Such a construction was however, the requirements placed on moistened cosmetic pads not fair.

US 6,315,114 B1 also discloses a stacked arrangement of wet wipes in an evaporation retardant sealable packaging container, wherein the wipes are spunbonded webs (spunbond), that is to say nonwoven webs of endless fibers of a diameter of less than 18 μm. It is to be achieved in these relatively thin wet wipes of staple fibers in addition to a uniform moisture content improved tear strength and durability against fraying and the delivery of a minimum amount of liquid. For humidification, a stack-shaped arrangement as a whole is charged with an amount of liquid. These wipes would not meet the requirements of moist cosmetic pads.

US 4,408,437 and the resulting US 4,649,695 relate to a manufacturing method and apparatus for conventional moistening of an endless tissue web, that is a wet-laid fibrous web structure, as used for wet wipes for personal care. Longitudinal sections are cut from this web and stacked in a packaging container. These documents are based on a state of the art, according to which structurally stable wet-laid tissue webs were guided endlessly through a liquid bath. Further information can not be found in these publications.

Of the present invention is based on the object, an arrangement Nonwoven-based cosmetic pads of the type mentioned in the opening paragraph to create, characterized by a good fluid intake behavior and have a good lasting moisture or fluid retention capacity, achieving a permanent uniform moistening of the pads inside the stack-shaped Arrangement is sought.

These Task is in an arrangement of the type mentioned according to the invention thereby solved, the pads comprise a fiber structure of staple fibers and are individually moistened and within the array have a uniform moisture content show that the difference of the mean moisture content of the upper and arranged in the lower quarter of the stack pads at the most 30% of the average moisture content of all pads in the stack.

According to the invention So no meltblown fiber webs or spunbond fiber webs used, but an air-laid fiber structure of staple fibers, ie fibers of a certain finite length or a length range. It has been shown that fiber structures of staple fibers, among which Chemical fibers with a defined length range as well as natural fibers are subsumed with a natural given length, in conjunction with a single humidification of the respective pads, in the course of which each individual pad is added a certain metered amount of liquid, can be used to make an array of pads that on the one hand, a considerable one Amount of liquid however, no excessive amount of fluid to absorb permanently and evenly and to provide.

The arrangement of a plurality of moistened nonwoven-based cosmetic pads advantageously exhibits a difference in the mean moisture content of the upper and lower quarters of the stack ten pads of at most 25%, in particular at most 20%, more preferably at most 15% based on the average moisture content of all pads of the stack.

The amount of liquid may advantageously also at least 250%, in particular at least 300%, in particular at least 320% of their dry weight, wherein at most 500%, in particular at most 450%, more in particular at most 400% of the dry weight of each pad. It proves in this context, as beneficial when determining moisture content statistical methods are used, in particular from a given number of pads, especially from all pads determines the moisture content and of which the mean value is formed becomes.

By the individual humidification of the pads is achieved according to the invention, that already at the beginning of a precisely metered amount of liquid in a respective Pad is introduced, and indeed before the stacking and Arrangement of the pads in a packaging container. This brings in contrast for stack wetting the very significant advantage with it independently from the arrangement, handling and storage of the filled packaging containers from the beginning a uniform predetermined Moisture content in each pad is achieved. It has too shown that the tendency is that the liquid in the stack-shaped Sequence of gravity settles at the bottom of the packaging container, especially for cotton pads with considerable but not excessive moisture content, almost completely overcome can be. The use of staple fibers makes one here advantageous contribution.

It is proposed according to the invention, those in an upper quarter of the pile and those in a lower one Quarter of the stack arranged pads (or in other words: the in the outer quarters, arranged so the respective end of the stack associated quarters Pads) to the effect that with these pads the average moisture content is determined becomes. The difference in the mean value of the moisture content of these pads the upper or lower quarter (or the two outer quarters) deviates in the inventive arrangement at the most 30%, in particular at most 25%, more particularly not more than 20%, further in particular at most 15% of the average moisture content of all the pads in the stack, and indeed, if the determination of the moisture content of the pads in the stack is four Weeks after moistening, stacking and placement in the packaging container he follows. The inventive arrangement the pads are opposite known arrangements with as mentioned considerable but not excessive moisture content characterized in that the claimed wet distribution is maintained: So it does not come, as with some known pads, to an extreme Enrichment of the liquid at the bottom of the packaging container and associated with a proper wetting of the bottom pads. Of the Formation of the fiber structure from air-laid staple fibers and the individual moistening The pads have a significant importance, which is responsible is made that the moisture content is also four weeks after moistening can be kept in the claimed area.

Advantageously, the pads have a basis weight of 40-350 g / m ² , in particular of 60-250 g / m ² , in particular of 100-200 g / m ² and more particularly of 100-140 g / m ² .

The pads according to the invention show a good moisture retention capacity, ie that under load (which is the case when using the pad, for example when rubbing off the skin), the pad releases sufficient but moderately liquid. The moisture retention capacity is determined by the following "spin method": moistened pads are isolated to the drum wall of the centrifuge (type 5942 SO with an acceleration a = 276 g, where g = 9,81 m / s ² ), so designed without overlap This is followed by a centrifugation step at 250 rpm for 4 minutes, from the difference between the liquid dispensed in the centrifugation step (determined as the difference between the initial weight of the wetted pad before the centrifugation step and the weight of the pad after centrifuging) and the weight The moisture retention capacity is expressed as a percentage of the weight of the liquid remaining in the pad relative to the weight of the liquid used.

advantageously, the cotton pads have a moisture retention capacity of at least 80%, preferably of at least 83%, more preferably at least 85% and from at most 98%, preferably at most 95%, particularly preferably at most 93%.

For the production the pads and the formation of the claimed inventive arrangement have staple fibers of a length proven from 3 to 60 mm. Staple fibers are understood to be fibers of limited length, which chemical fibers, ie natural or synthetic Polymers industrially produced fibers, and natural fibers could be. If chemical fibers are additionally used as staple fibers, so can this in an advantageous development, lengths of 15 to 40 mm, in particular from 15 to 25 mm. The length of natural staple fibers, such as Cotton fibers are advantageously 9-15 mm, in particular about 12 mm.

The mentioned above Chemical fibers as staple fibers can advantageously comprise micro-staple fibers or micro-staple fibers be. The term "microstack fibers" means that these fibers are a strength of <1 dtex.

Micro staple fibers can advantageously polyester (PES) fibers or viscose fibers Although viscose fibers consist of natural cellulose molecules, the but synthetically processed to form fibers).

If Micro staple fibers are used, so they are more advantageous on their surface Hydrophilized to provide a good fluid absorption capacity to deliver.

Further features, details and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the drawing Dar position and subsequent description of a preferred embodiment of the invention. In the drawing shows

1 a schematic representation of a device for single moistening cosmetic pads and for stacking these pads.

A advantageous composition of nonwoven-based cosmetic pads a fiber structure of staple fibers. The composition of this Staple fibers are advantageously given by 25% by weight of microfibers of polyester, in particular of a preferred length of 18 mm and a fiber thickness of 0.9 dtex, and 13% by weight bicomponent fibers as binder fibers, advantageously polyester (PES) / copolyester (CO-PES) bicomponent fibers, with a preferred length of 51 mm and a fiber thickness of 2.2 dtex, and 62% cotton noils, which as natural fibers a fiber length of about 12 mm.

The The staple fibers mentioned above are used as a dry fiber mixture deposited to form an endless nonwoven web ("airlaid"). From this nonwoven web will be Pads of an arbitrary, in particular round or oval shape emerged, in particular punched out. These pads will be after individually moistened from the fibrous web, so with a previously metered amount of liquid and then arranged to a stack in a packaging container.

The pads formed out of the nonwoven web can be stored, for example, in the form of a stack, and in this form fed to a device for individual moistening of the pads. For this purpose, for example, it is conceivable and advantageous that by means of a in 1 schematically illustrated suction gripper device 2 one pad from the magazine arrangement 4 taken and a moistening station 6 is supplied. In the moistening station 6 The pad is in a pad shape preferably adapted trough-shaped receptacle 8th in which a certain previously metered amount of liquid is supplied by a metering device, not shown. A precisely metered amount of fluid will be delivered from that in the humidification station 6 arranged pad absorbed or introduced into the pad. The moistening of the pad takes place under a pressure, not shown. Preferably, pressure of 0.5 mbar to 10 bar is used. Accordingly, it is also possible to use vacuum. After moistening, the pad is removed from the suction gripper device 2 taken and from the moistening station 6 taken and then to a storage device 10 Passing one pad after another to form a stacked arrangement 12 stores. Advantageously, the storage and the formation of the stack-shaped arrangement takes place 12 directly in a packaging container, which can then be sealed against evaporation 14 , It would also be conceivable that the stacking takes place outside of such a packaging container and the stack thus formed is then inserted as a whole in a packaging container.

A number of 20 pads of the type described above were formed from an airlaid nonwoven fabric having a basis weight of 115 g / m ² and a thickness of about 1.3 mm (measured under a test pressure of 0.5 kPa). The pads have an oval shape with 70 mm × 90 mm diameter. The dry weight of each of the 20 pads was determined by single weighing and determined to the nearest 2 decimal places in grams. To determine the dry weight, the pad is dried to constant dry at 100-105 ° C and after cooling to room temperature (cooling in a desiccator) weighed. 3 ml of an impregnating liquid (Emulgade CM from Cognis Deutschland GmbH, Dusseldorf) of the following composition were introduced into the pads: I. Cetearyl Isononanoate (and) Ceteareth-20 (and) Cetearyl Alcohol (and) Glyceryl Stearate (and) Glycerin (and) ceteareth-12 (and) cetyl Palmitate 15.00% by weight water 83.50% by weight II. Coceth-7 (and) PPG-1-PEG-9 Lauryl Glycol Ether (and) PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil 0.30% by weight Perfume oil Jade (by Symrise) 0.30 Gwe .-% III. Phenoxyethanol (and) Benzoic Acid (and) Dehydroacetic acid 0.60% by weight IV. KOH (20%) about 0.3% by weight pH = 5.5

Thereafter, the weight of the moistened pads was again determined by individual weighing. By Forming the calculated difference between the weights of the moist pads and the dry pads, the moisture content in grams was determined and from this the moisture content in percent relative to the dry weight was calculated.

The in this case determined sizes from the table below. They became essentially immediate won after moistening and stacking. After that, the stack-like Arrangement in the form of two stacks with alternating overlapping Pads formed and in a moisture-tight sealable freezer bag for simulation a packaging container shrink wrapped and stored at room temperature. After 4 weeks each one was Pad the arrangement again determines the weight and by difference formation with the initially determined weights of the dry pads the moisture content determined and again as a percentage of the dry weight the pads indicated.

The Values of this second balance four weeks after moistening and Stacking was evaluated as shown in the table. The mean value of the moisture content of the upper and lower Quarter or the outer quarter of the stack. These are the top 5 pads (Pad # 1 to 5) and the lower 5 pads (Pad No. 16 to 20). It was then the difference of the mean value of the moisture content of the pads of the upper Quarter and the lower quarter and this difference compared with the mean moisture content of all pads and as a percentage hereof indicated.
