The disposable diaper 10 is configured by joining the two side edges with heat sealing means such as ultrasonic welding in the state of being overlapped and joined to each other and folded in two.

<製造方法>
次に、この使い捨ておむつ10の製造方法の一例を、図4および図5を参照しながら説明すると、漸次繰り出し供給される適宜幅を有する外装シート11上面のレッグ用接着剤塗布領域Pおよびウエスト用接着剤塗布領域Qに対応して、所定位置に配置された図示省略の接着剤塗布装置により、ホットメルト接着剤がスパイラル状に供給される(スパイラル状塗布工程)。
<Manufacturing method>
Next, an example of a method for manufacturing the disposable diaper 10 will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. The leg adhesive application region P on the upper surface of the exterior sheet 11 having an appropriate width to be gradually fed out and used for the waist Corresponding to the adhesive application region Q, a hot melt adhesive is supplied in a spiral shape by an adhesive application device (not shown) disposed at a predetermined position (spiral application process).

この際、外装シート11が所定の搬送方向Rに沿って移動されているため、レッグ用接着剤塗布領域Pやウエスト用接着剤塗布領域Qに対して、スパイラル状に塗布された各スパイラル状塗布部19や各スパイラル状塗布部20がそれぞれ搬送方向R、即ち前記左右方向に沿って連続状に形成されていく。   At this time, since the exterior sheet 11 is moved along the predetermined conveying direction R, each spiral application applied in a spiral manner to the leg adhesive application region P and the waist adhesive application region Q. The part 19 and each spiral-shaped application part 20 are continuously formed along the transport direction R, that is, the left-right direction.

そして、この搬送方向R下流側において、各スパイラル状塗布部19や各スパイラル状塗布部20が形成されたレッグ用接着剤塗布領域Pやウエスト用接着剤塗布領域Qの所定位置に、それぞれレッグ用弾性部材16やウエスト用弾性部材15が伸張状態で供給されて貼着状に取り付けられる(弾性部材接着工程)。   Then, on the downstream side in the transport direction R, each leg-shaped application portion 19 or each spiral-shaped application portion 20 is formed at a predetermined position in the leg adhesive application region P or the waist adhesive application region Q. The elastic member 16 and the elastic member 15 for waist are supplied in an expanded state and attached in a sticking shape (elastic member bonding step).

その後、下流側の所定位置で股部対応領域Aに配置されたレッグ用弾性部材16の弱化処理が施され(弱化処理工程)、さらにその下流側の所定位置で、両レッグ用開口周縁部領域B間の中間部領域C上に、所定の姿勢で吸収パッド体22が供給される(吸収パッド体供給工程)。この際、供給された吸収パッド体22は中間部領域Cに塗布された各スパイラル状塗布部19によって貼着状に取り付けられる。   Thereafter, the leg elastic member 16 disposed in the crotch corresponding region A is subjected to weakening processing at a predetermined position on the downstream side (weakening processing step). The absorbent pad body 22 is supplied in a predetermined posture onto the intermediate region C between B (absorbent pad body supply step). At this time, the supplied absorbent pad body 22 is attached in a sticking manner by the spiral application portions 19 applied to the intermediate region C.

その後、外装シート11と同幅とされた内装シート12が、重合状に順次供給され、レッグ用接着剤塗布領域Pやウエスト用接着剤塗布領域Qに塗布された各スパイラル状塗布部19や各スパイラル状塗布部20によって貼着状態とされる(シート重合工程)。   Thereafter, the interior sheet 12 having the same width as the exterior sheet 11 is sequentially supplied in a polymerized form, and each spiral application unit 19 applied to the leg adhesive application region P and the waist adhesive application region Q The spiral application unit 20 is put into a sticking state (sheet polymerization step).

次に、打ち抜き工程部24で、ロータリーダイカッター等によりレッグ用開口部14対応位置を円形もしくは楕円形に打ち抜く(打ち抜き工程)。その後、二つ折り工程部25で二つ折りにして(二つ折り工程)、サイドシール工程部26で図示省略の超音波溶着装置による超音波溶着等によりサイドシール27を行い(サイドシール工程)、切断工程部28でサイドシール27の中央部分を切断することにより(切断工程)、所望の使い捨ておむつ10が順次製造される。   Next, in the punching process section 24, the position corresponding to the leg opening 14 is punched into a circle or an ellipse by a rotary die cutter or the like (punching process). Thereafter, the sheet is folded in half at the half-folding process section 25 (two-folding process), and the side seal 27 is performed by ultrasonic welding using an ultrasonic welding apparatus (not shown) in the side sealing process section 26 (side sealing process), and the cutting process. The desired disposable diaper 10 is sequentially manufactured by cutting the central portion of the side seal 27 at the portion 28 (cutting step).

本実施形態の使い捨ておむつ10は以上のように構成されており、レッグ用弾性部材16を固定するためのホットメルト接着剤の塗布に際して、前記特許文献1に開示のような接着剤を噴き付け塗布する方式でなく、接着剤の飛散が有効に防止できると共に、左右方向の全長に至るレッグ用接着剤塗布領域P全体にわたって、連続状のスパイラル状に塗布されたスパイラル状塗布部19を複数列形成すればよく、前記特許文献2に開示のように所定範囲のみに対する部分的な塗布でなく、接着剤塗布の開始や停止のための位置決め制御を行う必要がなく、接着剤塗布における制御も容易に行える利点がある。しかも、全面に接着剤を塗布する場合と比較してスパイラル状に塗布する構造であるため、線状の部分的な塗布となり、使い捨ておむつ10としての柔軟性も良好に確保できる利点がある。   The disposable diaper 10 of the present embodiment is configured as described above, and when applying a hot melt adhesive for fixing the leg elastic member 16, an adhesive as disclosed in Patent Document 1 is applied by spraying. In addition to effectively preventing the scattering of the adhesive, a plurality of rows of spiral application portions 19 applied in a continuous spiral shape are formed over the entire length of the leg adhesive application region P extending in the entire length in the left-right direction. It is only necessary to perform the position control for starting and stopping the adhesive application, and it is easy to control the adhesive application as well as the partial application only for a predetermined range as disclosed in Patent Document 2. There is an advantage that can be done. And since it is the structure apply | coated spirally compared with the case where an adhesive agent is apply | coated to the whole surface, it becomes a linear partial application | coating and there exists an advantage which can ensure the softness | flexibility as the disposable diaper 10 favorably.

また、互いに隣接配置された各スパイラル状塗布部19が互いにオーバーラップ状態とされているため、各スパイラル状塗布部19とレッグ用弾性部材16との接点位置の増加が図れ、レッグ用開口周縁部領域Bにおけるレッグ用弾性部材16の接着力向上が図れる利点がある。従って、各レッグ用弾性部材16の収縮作用による各接着位置からの抜けも有効に防止できる。   Further, since the spiral application portions 19 arranged adjacent to each other are overlapped with each other, the contact position between each spiral application portion 19 and the leg elastic member 16 can be increased, and the leg opening peripheral portion can be increased. There is an advantage that the adhesive strength of the leg elastic member 16 in the region B can be improved. Accordingly, it is possible to effectively prevent the leg elastic members 16 from coming off from the bonding positions due to the contracting action.

さらに、股部対応領域Aに配設されているレッグ用弾性部材16に対して、弱化処理を行っているため、不所望な位置でのレッグ用弾性部材16の収縮作用によるレッグ用弾性部材16の位置ズレや股部対応領域Aでの不所望な縮み変形が有効に防止できる利点がある。   Further, since the leg elastic member 16 disposed in the crotch region A is weakened, the leg elastic member 16 is caused by the contracting action of the leg elastic member 16 at an undesired position. There is an advantage that it is possible to effectively prevent undesired shrinkage deformation in the misalignment and the crotch region A.

また、レッグ用接着剤塗布領域Pやウエスト用接着剤塗布領域Qに塗布されるホットメルト接着剤がスパイラル状とされているため、外装シート11と、内装シート12もしくは吸収パッド体22との互いに接着される部分が間欠的な接着となり、通気性も良好に確保できると共に、中間部領域Cに塗布されたスパイラル状塗布部19によって吸収パッド体22が接着されるため、吸収パッド体22の不用意な位置ズレも有効に防止できる利点がある。   Moreover, since the hot melt adhesive applied to the leg adhesive application region P and the waist adhesive application region Q has a spiral shape, the exterior sheet 11 and the interior sheet 12 or the absorbent pad body 22 are mutually connected. The part to be bonded is intermittently bonded, the air permeability can be ensured well, and the absorbent pad body 22 is bonded by the spiral application part 19 applied to the intermediate area C. There is an advantage that the prepared positional deviation can be effectively prevented.

そして、その下流側の弱化処理工程部29で、股部対応領域Aに配置されたレッグ用弾性部材16の弱化処理が施される(弱化処理工程)。この弱化処理の方法として、例えば、外周表面にカッター刃が分散配置されたロール体を、股部対応領域Aが通過する際に加圧状態で転動させることによって行うことができる。   And the weakening process part 29 of the downstream is performed the weakening process of the elastic member 16 for legs arrange | positioned in the crotch corresponding | compatible area | region A (weakening process process). As the weakening treatment method, for example, a roll body in which cutter blades are dispersedly arranged on the outer peripheral surface can be rolled in a pressurized state when the crotch corresponding region A passes.

さらにその下流側の所定位置で、両レッグ用開口周縁部領域B間の中間部領域C上に対応して、所定の姿勢で吸収パッド体22が供給される(吸収パッド体供給工程)。この際、吸収パッド体22は内装シート12の供給位置対応部分にスパイラル状等に塗布されたホットメルト接着剤等により貼着される。この場合、吸収パッド体22は、例えば、トップシートとバックシートとの間に吸収体を挟み込んだ構造とされ、トップシートは透液性の不織布等により構成され、バックシートは撥水性不織布等により構成される。また、吸収体は、粉砕したパルプ繊維やセルロース繊維等の親水性繊維集合層に粒状の高分子吸収体を混合した塊をティッシュペーパー等の紙シートまたは透液性不織布シート等の被覆シートで包み、所定形状に成形された構造とされている。従って、本実施形態においては、外装シート11は撥水性を有しない不織布等であってもよい。   Further, at a predetermined position on the downstream side, the absorbent pad body 22 is supplied in a predetermined posture corresponding to the intermediate region C between both leg opening peripheral region B (absorbing pad body supplying step). At this time, the absorbent pad body 22 is attached to a portion corresponding to the supply position of the interior sheet 12 with a hot melt adhesive or the like applied in a spiral shape or the like. In this case, the absorbent pad body 22 has, for example, a structure in which an absorbent body is sandwiched between a top sheet and a back sheet, the top sheet is made of a liquid-permeable nonwoven fabric, and the back sheet is made of a water-repellent nonwoven fabric or the like. Composed. In addition, the absorbent body is a paper sheet such as tissue paper or a covering sheet such as a liquid-permeable non-woven sheet, in which a mass of a hydrophilic polymer aggregate such as pulverized pulp fiber or cellulose fiber is mixed with a granular polymer absorber. The structure is formed into a predetermined shape. Therefore, in this embodiment, the exterior sheet 11 may be a non-woven fabric or the like that does not have water repellency.

次に、打ち抜き工程部24で、ロータリーダイカッター等によりレッグ用開口部14対応位置を円形もしくは楕円形に打ち抜く(打ち抜き工程)。その後、二つ折り工程部25で二つ折りにして(二つ折り工程)、サイドシール工程部26で図示省略の超音波溶着装置による超音波溶着等によりサイドシール27を行い(サイドシール工程)、切断工程部28でサイドシール27の中央部分を切断することにより(切断工程)、所望の使い捨ておむつ10が順次製造される。   Next, in the punching process section 24, the position corresponding to the leg opening 14 is punched into a circle or an ellipse by a rotary die cutter or the like (punching process). Thereafter, the sheet is folded in half at the half-folding process section 25 (two-folding process), and the side seal 27 is performed by ultrasonic welding using an ultrasonic welding apparatus (not shown) in the side sealing process section 26 (side sealing process), and the cutting process. The desired disposable diaper 10 is sequentially manufactured by cutting the central portion of the side seal 27 at the portion 28 (cutting step).

従って、本実施形態においても、第1の実施形態と同様、接着剤の飛散が有効に防止できると共に、接着剤塗布における制御も容易に行える利点があり、しかも、使い捨ておむつ10としての柔軟性も良好に確保できる利点がある。   Therefore, in this embodiment, as in the first embodiment, it is possible to effectively prevent the scattering of the adhesive, and it is possible to easily control the adhesive application, and the flexibility as the disposable diaper 10 is also provided. There is an advantage that can be secured well.

また、各スパイラル状塗布部19を互いにオーバーラップ状態とすることによって、レッグ用開口周縁部領域Bにおけるレッグ用弾性部材16の接着力向上が図れると共に、弱化処理によって、不所望な位置でのレッグ用弾性部材16の収縮作用によるレッグ用弾性部材16の位置ズレや股部対応領域Aでの不所望な縮み変形が有効に防止でき、通気性も良好に確保できる利点がある。   In addition, by making the spiral application portions 19 overlap each other, the adhesive strength of the leg elastic member 16 in the leg opening peripheral region B can be improved, and the leg at an undesired position can be obtained by the weakening process. There is an advantage that it is possible to effectively prevent the position elastic displacement of the leg elastic member 16 due to the contracting action of the elastic member 16 and the undesired shrinkage deformation in the crotch region A, and to ensure good air permeability.

<第3の実施形態>
<構造>
図7は第3の実施形態を示しており、前記第1の実施形態と同様構成部分は同一符号を付し、その説明を省略する。
<Third Embodiment>
<Structure>
FIG. 7 shows a third embodiment, and the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted.

即ち、本実施形態においては、第1の実施形態におけるレッグ用接着剤塗布領域Pに対して、スパイラル状塗布部19群の塗布だけでなく、さらに、レッグ用接着剤塗布領域P全体にわたって、接着剤の一例としてのホットメルト接着剤が左右方向に沿ってストライプ状に塗布されたストライプ状塗布部31が備えられた構造とされている。   That is, in the present embodiment, not only the application of the spiral-shaped application portion 19 group but also the entire adhesive application region P for the legs is adhered to the adhesive application region P for the legs in the first embodiment. It is set as the structure provided with the stripe-shaped application part 31 by which the hot melt adhesive as an example of an agent was apply | coated to the stripe shape along the left-right direction.

この際、ストライプ状塗布部31を構成する各ストライプ構成要素塗布部31a間の相互間隔は、必要に応じて適宜決定すればよい。   At this time, the interval between the stripe component application parts 31a constituting the stripe application part 31 may be appropriately determined as necessary.

<製造方法>
次に、本実施形態における使い捨ておむつ10の製造方法においては、第1の実施形態における弾性部材接着工程の前工程として、漸次繰り出し供給される外装シート11上面の前記レッグ用接着剤塗布領域Pに対応して、所定位置に配置されたストライプ塗布用コーターを有する図示省略の接着剤塗布装置により、ホットメルト接着剤をストライプ状に供給してストライプ状塗布部31を形成する工程(ストライプ状塗布工程)がさらに備えられた方法とされている。
<Manufacturing method>
Next, in the manufacturing method of the disposable diaper 10 in the present embodiment, as the pre-process of the elastic member bonding process in the first embodiment, the leg adhesive application region P on the upper surface of the exterior sheet 11 that is gradually fed out is provided. Correspondingly, a step of supplying the hot melt adhesive in a stripe shape to form the stripe-shaped coating portion 31 (stripe-shaped coating step) by an adhesive coating device (not shown) having a stripe coating coater arranged at a predetermined position. ) Is further provided.

なお、前記スパイラル状塗布部19群を形成するスパイラル状塗布工程と、このストライプ構成要素塗布部31a群によるストライプ状塗布部31を形成するストライプ状塗布工程とは、いずれが先に行われてもよい。   It should be noted that either the spiral application process for forming the spiral application part 19 group or the stripe application process for forming the stripe application part 31 by the stripe component application part 31a group is performed first. Good.

そして、ストライプ状塗布工程とスパイラル状塗布工程との双方が施された後、各スパイラル状塗布部19やストライプ状塗布部31が形成されたレッグ用接着剤塗布領域Pの所定位置にレッグ用弾性部材16が伸張状態で供給されて貼着状に取り付けられると共に、各スパイラル状塗布部20群が形成されたウエスト用接着剤塗布領域Qの所定位置に、ウエスト用弾性部材15が伸張状態で供給されて貼着状に取り付けられる(弾性部材接着工程)。   Then, after both the stripe-shaped coating step and the spiral-shaped coating step are performed, the leg elasticity is applied to a predetermined position of the leg adhesive coating region P where the spiral-shaped coating portions 19 and the stripe-shaped coating portions 31 are formed. The member 16 is supplied in an expanded state and attached in a sticky shape, and the elastic member 15 for waist is supplied in an extended state at a predetermined position of the adhesive application region Q for the waist where each group of spiral application portions 20 is formed. And attached in a sticky shape (elastic member bonding step).

その後の工程は第1の実施形態と同様に行われ、同様に所望の使い捨ておむつ10が順次製造される。   Subsequent processes are performed similarly to 1st Embodiment, and the desired disposable diaper 10 is manufactured sequentially similarly.

従って、本実施形態においては、第1の実施形態と同様の効果を奏するだけでなく、レッグ用接着剤塗布領域P全体にわたって、各スパイラル状塗布部19とストライプ状塗布部31を重ねて塗布しているため、各スパイラル塗布部19だけでなく、ストライプ状塗布部31の各ストライプ構成要素塗布部31aとレッグ用弾性部材16とによる接点位置の増加も図れ、レッグ用開口周縁部領域Pにおけるレッグ用弾性部材16の接着力をより一層向上することができ、強固に固定できる利点がある。従って、各レッグ用弾性部材16の収縮作用による各接着位置からの抜けもより確実に防止できる。   Therefore, in this embodiment, not only the same effects as in the first embodiment are obtained, but also the spiral application portions 19 and the stripe-like application portions 31 are applied over the entire leg adhesive application region P. Therefore, the contact position can be increased not only by each spiral application part 19 but also by each stripe component application part 31a of the stripe application part 31 and the leg elastic member 16, and the leg in the peripheral edge region P of the leg opening can be increased. The adhesive force of the elastic member 16 can be further improved, and there is an advantage that it can be firmly fixed. Therefore, it is possible to more reliably prevent the leg elastic members 16 from coming off from the bonding positions due to the contracting action.

また、各スパイラル状塗布に際しての各スパイラル状塗布部19相互間のピッチに比較して、ストライプ状塗布に際しての各ストライプ構成要素塗布部31a相互間のピッチをより狭く形成することが容易に行え、従って、各ストライプ構成要素塗布部31aの相互間間隔を、狭く構成することによって、柔軟性や通気性を確保しながら各レッグ用弾性部材16に対するより接着力の向上が図れる利点もある。   In addition, compared with the pitch between the spiral application portions 19 at the time of each spiral application, it is easy to form a narrower pitch between the stripe component application portions 31a at the time of stripe application, Therefore, by forming the space between the stripe component application portions 31a narrow, there is also an advantage that the adhesion force to each leg elastic member 16 can be further improved while ensuring flexibility and air permeability.

さらに、スパイラル状塗布部20が形成されたウエスト部対応領域Dにも、レッグ用接着剤塗布領域Pと同様、ストライプ状塗布部を形成する構造であってもよい。   Furthermore, the structure which forms a stripe-shaped application part also in the waist part corresponding | compatible area | region D in which the spiral application part 20 was formed similarly to the adhesive application area | region P for legs may be sufficient.
