Description

本発明は、使い捨ておむつ等のパンツ型吸収性物品に関する。   The present invention relates to a pants-type absorbent article such as a disposable diaper.

従来、表面シート、裏面シート及び液保持性の吸収体を備え、腹側部の両側縁部と背側部の両側縁部とを互いに重ね合わせた重合部を融着して形成された一対のサイドシール部を有するパンツ型の吸収性物品が知られている。
また、種々の目的から、サイドシール部に形成する融着部の形成パターンを工夫したものが種々提案されている。
例えば、本出願人は、良好な装着感や風合いを保持しながら良好なフィット性を発揮するパンツ型使い捨ておむつとして、ウエスト開口部の周縁部及びレッグ開口部の周縁部に位置するサイドシール部の融着部を、該サイドシール部の幅方向の略中央部に非溶着部を有する間歇接合部としたパンツ型使い捨ておむつを提案した(特許文献1参照)。
Conventionally, it is provided with a top sheet, a back sheet, and a liquid-retaining absorber, and a pair of formed by fusing overlapping portions in which both side edges of the abdominal side and both side edges of the back side are overlapped with each other A pants-type absorbent article having a side seal portion is known.
For various purposes, various devices have been proposed in which the formation pattern of the fused portion formed on the side seal portion is devised.
For example, the applicant of the present invention is a pants-type disposable diaper that exhibits good fit while maintaining a good wearing feeling and texture, and the side seal portion positioned at the peripheral edge of the waist opening and the peripheral edge of the leg opening. A pants-type disposable diaper was proposed in which the fused part was an intermittent joint part having a non-welded part at a substantially central part in the width direction of the side seal part (see Patent Document 1).

また、特許文献2には、前身頃と後身頃との側部の接合部が、単位融着部が多数一定の間隔で配列されて形成され、かつ、同一の高さ寸法の単位融着部が連続している単位融着部群を有し、さらに高さ寸法の相違する単位融着部群毎で区間分けされているパンツ型使い捨ておむつが記載されている
また、特許文献3には、前部のシームパネルと背部のシームパネルとを接合することにより、ウエスト開口部と2つのレッグ開口部とを形成した、例えばおむつである衣類が記載されており、特許文献2には、そのような衣類のシームパネル同士を、多数の接合部の集合からなるクラスターを、複数設けて接合することが記載されている。
Further, in Patent Document 2, the side portion of the front body and the back body is formed by arranging a large number of unit fusion parts at regular intervals, and the unit fusion part having the same height dimension. Pants-type disposable diapers that have a unit fused part group that is continuous and are divided into sections for each unit fused part group that has a different height dimension are also disclosed in Patent Document 3. A garment, such as a diaper, is described in which a waist opening and two leg openings are formed by joining a front seam panel and a back seam panel. It is described that a plurality of clusters composed of a set of a large number of joint portions are joined to seam panels of a simple garment.

ところで、着用者のウエスト周りは、周長が長く、またその周長が姿勢の変化や呼吸により変動するため、ウエスト周りに当接する部分の柔らかさや感触は、装着感に大きく影響する。
しかし、特許文献1,2の使い捨ておむつにおいては、おむつを履いたり履かせる際、あるいは着用中に、ウエスト開口部の周縁部を上方から、もしくは側方(肌に対して垂直な方向)から押圧するような力が加わった際に、サイドシール部の硬くなった融着部が、着用者に違和感を与えたり、着用者や介護者等の肌を刺激する恐れがある。
特許文献3の衣類も、ウエスト周りの感触に配慮が不充分であり、また、前部のシームパネルのシームパネルの外(内)面に背部のシームパネルの内(外)面を重ねて両パネルを接合しているため、製造設備が複雑化する。
By the way, since the circumference of the wearer's waist is long and the circumference varies due to a change in posture and breathing, the softness and feel of the portion in contact with the circumference of the waist greatly affects the wearing feeling.
However, in the disposable diapers disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2, the peripheral edge of the waist opening is pressed from above or from the side (perpendicular to the skin) when wearing or wearing diapers. When such a force is applied, the hardened fused portion of the side seal portion may give the wearer an uncomfortable feeling or may irritate the skin of the wearer or caregiver.
The garment of Patent Document 3 also has insufficient consideration for the feel around the waist, and the inner (outer) surface of the back seam panel overlaps the outer (inner) surface of the front seam panel. Since the panels are joined, the manufacturing equipment becomes complicated.

従って、本発明は、サイドシール部による違和感や肌への刺激が生じにくく、装着感に優れたパンツ型吸収性物品に関する。   Therefore, the present invention relates to a pants-type absorbent article that is less likely to cause discomfort and irritation to the skin due to the side seal portion and is excellent in wearing feeling.

本発明は、腹側部の両側縁部と背側部の両側縁部とを互いに重ね合わせた重合部を融着して形成された一対のサイドシール部を有するパンツ型吸収性物品であって、前記サイドシール部は、その長手方向の長さが互いに同じである複数の融着部が該長手方向に一定のピッチで配置された第1シール領域と、第1シール領域における前記融着部とは前記長手方向の長さが異なる複数の融着部が該長手方向に一定のピッチで配置された1又は2以上の他のシール領域とを有しており、第1シール領域は、ウエスト開口部側の端部に形成されており、第1シール領域における融着部の前記長さが、前記他のシール領域における融着部の前記長さよりも短い、パンツ型吸収性物品を提供するものである。   The present invention is a pants-type absorbent article having a pair of side seal portions formed by fusing overlapping portions in which both side edge portions on the ventral side portion and both side edge portions on the back side portion are overlapped with each other. The side seal portion includes a first seal region in which a plurality of fusion portions having the same length in the longitudinal direction are arranged at a constant pitch in the longitudinal direction, and the fusion portion in the first seal region. And a plurality of fusion parts having different lengths in the longitudinal direction have one or two or more other seal regions arranged at a constant pitch in the longitudinal direction, and the first seal region has a waist Provided is a pant-type absorbent article, which is formed at an end on the opening side, and wherein the length of the fusion part in the first seal region is shorter than the length of the fusion part in the other seal region.

A region 72 having six sheets of stacked sheets and a region 73 having four sheets stacked by overlapping the regions 6a3 and 6b3 are provided.
The side seal portion 8 of the diaper 1 is formed by fusing the overlapping portion 7 having such a configuration.

おむつ1におけるサイドシール部8は、図3(c)に示すように、ウエスト開口部WO側の端部側からレッグ開口部LO側の端部に向かって、第1シール領域81、第2シール領域82(他のシール領域の一つ)及び第3シール領域83(他のシール領域の他の一つ)をこの順に有している。
第1シール領域81には、サイドシール部8の長手方向(Y方向)の長さd1が互いに同じである複数(図示例では5本)の融着部81’が該長手方向(Y方向)に一定のピッチP1で配置されている。ここで、ピッチとは、サイドシール部の長手方向において、隣接する融着部それぞれの中央位置間の距離である。
As shown in FIG. 3C, the side seal portion 8 in the diaper 1 includes a first seal region 81 and a second seal from an end portion on the waist opening WO side toward an end portion on the leg opening LO side. A region 82 (one of the other seal regions) and a third seal region 83 (the other one of the other seal regions) are provided in this order.
In the first seal region 81, a plurality of (five in the illustrated example) fused portions 81 ′ having the same length d1 in the longitudinal direction (Y direction) of the side seal portion 8 are provided in the longitudinal direction (Y direction). Are arranged at a constant pitch P1. Here, the pitch is a distance between the center positions of the adjacent fused portions in the longitudinal direction of the side seal portion.

第2シール領域82にも、サイドシール部8の長手方向(Y方向)の長さd2が互いに同じである複数(図示例では10本)の融着部82’が該長手方向(Y方向)に一定のピッチP2で配置されている。ただし、融着部82’の長手方向(Y方向)の長さd2は、第1シール領域81における融着部81’の長さd1とは異なっている。具体的には、融着部82’の長さd2は、融着部81’の長さd1よりも長くなっている。
また、第3シール領域83にも、サイドシール部8の長手方向(Y方向)の長さd3が互いに同じである複数(図示例では5本)の融着部83’が該長手方向(Y方向)に一定のピッチP3で配置されている。ただし、融着部83’の長手方向(Y方向)の長さd3は、第1シール領域81における融着部81’の長さd1とは異なっており、第2シール領域82における融着部82’の長さd2とも異なっている。具体的には、融着部83’の長さd3は、融着部81’の長さd1及び融着部82’の長さd2の何れよりも長くなっている。
Also in the second seal region 82, a plurality (10 in the illustrated example) of fused portions 82 ′ having the same length d2 in the longitudinal direction (Y direction) of the side seal portion 8 are provided in the longitudinal direction (Y direction). Are arranged at a constant pitch P2. However, the length d2 in the longitudinal direction (Y direction) of the fused portion 82 ′ is different from the length d1 of the fused portion 81 ′ in the first seal region 81. Specifically, the length d2 of the fused part 82 ′ is longer than the length d1 of the fused part 81 ′.
Further, in the third seal region 83, a plurality of (five in the illustrated example) fused portions 83 ′ having the same length d3 in the longitudinal direction (Y direction) of the side seal portion 8 are also provided in the longitudinal direction (Y In the direction) at a constant pitch P3. However, the length d3 in the longitudinal direction (Y direction) of the fused portion 83 ′ is different from the length d1 of the fused portion 81 ′ in the first seal region 81, and the fused portion in the second seal region 82. It is also different from the length d2 of 82 ′. Specifically, the length d3 of the fused part 83 ′ is longer than both the length d1 of the fused part 81 ′ and the length d2 of the fused part 82 ′.

第1シール領域81は、図1及び図3(c)に示すように、サイドシール部8におけるウエスト開口部WO側の端部に形成されている。また、上述したように、第1シール領域81における融着部81’の長さd1は、他のシール領域である第2及び第3シール領域それぞれにおける融着部82’,83’の長さd2,d3より短くなっている。   As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3C, the first seal region 81 is formed at the end of the side seal portion 8 on the side of the waist opening WO. Further, as described above, the length d1 of the fused portion 81 ′ in the first seal region 81 is the length of the fused portions 82 ′ and 83 ′ in the second and third seal regions, which are other seal regions. It is shorter than d2 and d3.

おむつ1におけるサイドシール部8は、上述したように、ウエスト開口部WO側の端部に、上記構成の第1シール領域81を有するため、サイドシール部による違和感や肌への刺激が生じにくく、装着感に優れている。
即ち、着用時において、特に乳幼児のウエスト端部領域に相当する部位は、おむつが当接される他の部位と比較して周長が大きく、また立ち/座りといった動作および、呼吸、食事の前後でその周長の変化も大きいため、おむつ自体の柔らかさの影響を最も受けやすい領域であり、その領域が柔らかいことがとても重要である。また、ウエスト端部領域は介護者(母親等)がおむつをはかせる際、手を入れて広げる部位でもあるため、その領域が柔らかいことは、着用者のみならず、介護者の肌への影響(触感)をも向上できるといった利点を有する。
As described above, the side seal portion 8 in the diaper 1 has the first seal region 81 having the above-described configuration at the end portion on the waist opening WO side, so that it is difficult for the side seal portion to cause discomfort and irritation to the skin. Excellent wearing feeling.
In other words, when wearing, the part corresponding to the infant's waist end region has a larger circumference than other parts where the diaper comes into contact with, and the operation such as standing / sitting, and before and after breathing and eating. Since the circumference of the diaper itself is also greatly changed, it is an area most susceptible to the softness of the diaper itself, and it is very important that the area is soft. The waist end area is also a part where a caregiver (mother, etc.) puts his hand on a diaper and widens it, so the softness of the area affects not only the wearer but also the caregiver's skin. (Tactile feeling) can be improved.

また、ウエスト端部領域においてはその良好な風合い、クッション性の観点から極力接着剤を使用しないことが望ましく、その領域に存在する接着剤の量は0〜10g/m2であることが好ましい。接着剤を用いない方法としては、外層シート、内層シートを弾性体の存在しない部位においてヒートシール、超音波シール等、熱によって部分的に融着させること等が挙げられる。 Further, in the waist end region, it is desirable not to use an adhesive as much as possible from the viewpoint of good texture and cushioning properties, and the amount of the adhesive existing in the region is preferably 0 to 10 g / m 2 . Examples of the method without using an adhesive include partial fusion of the outer layer sheet and the inner layer sheet by heat, such as heat sealing and ultrasonic sealing, at a site where no elastic body is present.

また、おむつ1のサイドシール部8においては、第1シール領域81の融着部81’のピッチP1と、第2シール領域82の融着部82’のピッチP2と、第3シール領域83の融着部83’の一定のピッチP3とが同じである。即ち、第1〜第3の総てのシール領域において、融着部のピッチが同じである。
このように、各領域の融着部のピッチを等しくすることにより、各領域のサイドシール部の融着強度を所望の値にコントロールすることが容易となり、且つ使用時において剥がれの生じない、良好な融着部強度をも得ることができる。
Further, in the side seal portion 8 of the diaper 1, the pitch P 1 of the fusion portion 81 ′ of the first seal region 81, the pitch P 2 of the fusion portion 82 ′ of the second seal region 82, and the third seal region 83 The fixed pitch P3 of the fused part 83 ′ is the same. That is, the pitch of the fused portion is the same in all the first to third seal regions.
Thus, by equalizing the pitch of the fusion part in each region, it becomes easy to control the fusion strength of the side seal part in each region to a desired value, and no peeling occurs during use. It is also possible to obtain a high fusion part strength.

しかも、おむつ1のサイドシール部8においては、第1シール領域81の融着部81’と第2シール領域82の融着部82’との間のピッチP4、及び第2シール領域82の融着部82’と第3シール領域83の融着部83’との間のピッチP5も、前記ピッチP1〜P3と同じであり、その結果、ヒートシール部8の長手方向の全長に亘って同一ピッチで融着部が形成されていることになる。   Moreover, in the side seal portion 8 of the diaper 1, the pitch P 4 between the fusion portion 81 ′ of the first seal region 81 and the fusion portion 82 ′ of the second seal region 82 and the fusion of the second seal region 82. The pitch P5 between the attachment portion 82 ′ and the fusion portion 83 ′ of the third seal region 83 is also the same as the pitch P1 to P3, and as a result, the same over the entire length of the heat seal portion 8 in the longitudinal direction. The fused part is formed at the pitch.

また、第1シール領域81における融着部81’は、図3(c)に示すように、領域6a1と領域6b1とを重ね合わせたシートの積層枚数が最大の領域71を融着している。
一般的に重合部7を形成する部材数が多くなると、融着樹脂量がそれに伴い増加するため、その部分を強固に融着して熱による樹脂化がなされると、その部分における硬さが増大し、おむつ1を、履かせようとしてウエスト開口部を拡げた際や、装着時に、その硬くなった部分が、ウエスト周りや手、脚等における肌に当たり、刺激を与える恐れがある。
本実施形態のおむつ1においては、サイドシール部8を、上述した第1〜第3シール領域が生じるように融着しているため、シートの積層枚数が最大の領域71における融着部は第1シール領域81となる。そのため、装着の際や装着中に、サイドシール部が着用者に違和感を与えたり、サイドシール部の硬くなった部分が、着用者や介護者の肌へ悪影響を与えることを防止することができる。おむつ1は、上述したように、ウエスト開口部WO側の端部に、シートの積層枚数が最大の端部領域71を有しており、ウエスト端部領域71における腹側部及び背側部それぞれのシートの積層構造が、腹側部の重合部同士間71a及び背側部の重合部71b同士間にも延在しているため、着用者のウエスト周り周囲全体に当接する部分のクッション性ないし感触が良好である。
Further, as shown in FIG. 3C, the fused portion 81 ′ in the first seal area 81 is fused in the area 71 having the maximum number of stacked sheets obtained by overlapping the areas 6a1 and 6b1. .
In general, when the number of members forming the polymerized portion 7 increases, the amount of the fusion resin increases accordingly. Therefore, when the portion is firmly fused and resinized by heat, the hardness of the portion is reduced. When the waist opening is widened to try to put on the diaper 1 or when the diaper 1 is worn or worn, the hardened portion may hit the skin around the waist, hands, legs, etc., and may cause irritation.

In addition, the pitch P2 of the fused portions 82 'in the second seal region 82 is preferably 0.5 to 3.0 mm, particularly preferably 1.0 to 2.5 mm. The ratio (the former / the latter) of the length d2 of the fused portion 82 ′ of the second seal region 82 to the length d1 of the fused portion 81 ′ of the first seal region 81 is 1.1 to 6.0, particularly It is preferable that it is 1.1-5.0. The ratio (P2 / P1) between the pitch P2 of the second seal region 82 and the pitch P1 of the first seal region 81 is preferably 0.5 to 5.0, particularly 0.7 to 3.0. .

It is preferable. In addition, the pitch P3 of the fused portion 83 'in the third seal region 83 is preferably 1.5 to 4.5 mm, particularly 2.0 to 4.0 mm. The ratio (the former / the latter) of the length d3 of the fused portion 83 ′ of the third seal region 83 to the length d1 of the fused portion 81 ′ of the first seal region 81 is 1.1 to 6.0, particularly It is preferable that it is 1.1-5.0. The ratio of the pitch P3 of the third seal region 83 to the pitch P1 of the first seal region 81 (the former / the latter) is preferably 0.5 to 5.0, particularly 0.7 to 3.0. .

また、第3シール領域83の融着部83’の長さd3は、第2シール領域82の融着部82’の長さd2よりも長いことが好ましい。レッグ開口部側の端部に形成された第3シール領域83の融着部83’の長さd3を、第1シール領域81と第3シール領域83との間に形成された第2シール領域82の融着部82’の長さd2よりも長くすることで、シール処理を行う際、他の領域より多くの熱量を該領域に与えることができる。第3シール領域83は、図3(c)に示す領域73、即ち図3(a)における領域6a3と図3(b)における領域6b3とが重合された領域を融着している。領域6a3(6b3)は他の領域6a1,6a2(6b1,6b2)と比して、構成シート数が少なく〔図3(a)に示す例においては2枚〕、融着樹脂量が少ないため、融着強度が低くなる。上述のように第3シール領域の融着部長さd3を長くすることにより、他の領域と同等程度の融着強度を得ることができる。第3シール領域83の融着部83’の長さd3と第2シール領域82の融着部82’の長さd2の比(前者/後者)は、例えば、1.1〜6.0、特に1.1〜5.0とすることが好ましい。また、第3シール領域83の前記ピッチP3と第2シール領域81の前記ピッチP2との比(前者/後者)は、0.5〜5.0、特に0.7〜3.0であることが好ましい。なお、図3(c)に示すように、本実施形態においては、重合部7における前記領域71と第1シール領域81とで、サイドシール部の長手方向の範囲が重複するが完全には一致しておらず、また、重合部7における前記領域73と第3シール領域83とで、サイドシール部の長手方向の範囲が重複するが完全には一致していないが、領域71と第1シール領域81、及び/又は領域73と第3シール領域83は、サイドシール部の長手方向における存在範囲がほぼ一致していることも好ましい。   Further, the length d3 of the fused portion 83 'in the third seal region 83 is preferably longer than the length d2 of the fused portion 82' in the second seal region 82. The length d3 of the fused portion 83 ′ of the third seal region 83 formed at the end on the leg opening side is set to the second seal region formed between the first seal region 81 and the third seal region 83. By making it longer than the length d2 of the fused portion 82 ′ of 82, when performing the sealing process, a larger amount of heat can be given to the region. The third seal region 83 fuses the region 73 shown in FIG. 3C, that is, the region where the region 6a3 in FIG. 3A and the region 6b3 in FIG. The region 6a3 (6b3) has a smaller number of constituent sheets than the other regions 6a1, 6a2 (6b1, 6b2) (two in the example shown in FIG. 3A), and the amount of the fusion resin is small. The fusion strength is lowered. As described above, by increasing the fusion part length d3 of the third seal region, it is possible to obtain a fusion strength equivalent to that of the other regions. The ratio (former / latter) of the length d3 of the fused portion 83 ′ of the third seal region 83 to the length d2 of the fused portion 82 ′ of the second seal region 82 is, for example, 1.1 to 6.0, In particular, 1.1 to 5.0 is preferable. The ratio (the former / the latter) of the pitch P3 of the third seal region 83 and the pitch P2 of the second seal region 81 is 0.5 to 5.0, particularly 0.7 to 3.0. Is preferred. As shown in FIG. 3C, in this embodiment, the region 71 in the overlapping portion 7 and the first seal region 81 overlap in the longitudinal range of the side seal portion. Further, the region 73 and the third seal region 83 in the overlapping portion 7 overlap with each other in the longitudinal direction of the side seal portion but are not completely coincident with each other. It is also preferred that the region 81 and / or the region 73 and the third seal region 83 have substantially the same existence range in the longitudinal direction of the side seal portion.

サイドシール部8の融着方法としては、ヒートエンボス、超音波エンボス、高周波エンボス等が用いられ、おむつ1においては、サイドシール部8の形成に、図4に示すように、一対の超音波エンボスロール80a,80bが用いられている。
具体的には、図3(c)に示すサイドシール部8の形状に対応するように形成された凸部80を備えたエンボスロール80aと、表面がフラットなフラットロール80bとの間に、帯状のおむつ1の連続体を通し、側縁部6aと側縁部6bとを重ね合わせた重合部7の位置で、凸部80及びフラットロール80bによってエンボスすることにより、サイドシール部8を形成する。凸部80は、帯状のおむつ1の連続体の流れ方向と直交する方向と、図3(c)に示すサイドシール部8の長手方向(Y方向)とが対応するように、流れ方向と直交する方向に、シール領域8a1、シール領域8a2及びシール領域8a3それぞれの融着部81’に対応する小凸部を有している。そのため、一つのサイドシール部8を一回のエンボス加工により形成することができる。
As a method for fusing the side seal portion 8, heat embossing, ultrasonic embossing, high frequency embossing or the like is used. In the diaper 1, a pair of ultrasonic embossing is used to form the side seal portion 8 as shown in FIG. Rolls 80a and 80b are used.
Specifically, a belt-like shape is formed between an embossing roll 80a having a convex portion 80 formed so as to correspond to the shape of the side seal portion 8 shown in FIG. 3C and a flat roll 80b having a flat surface. The side seal portion 8 is formed by embossing with the convex portion 80 and the flat roll 80b at the position of the overlapping portion 7 where the side edge portion 6a and the side edge portion 6b are overlapped through the diaper 1 continuous body. . The convex portion 80 is orthogonal to the flow direction so that the direction orthogonal to the flow direction of the continuous body of the strip-shaped diaper 1 corresponds to the longitudinal direction (Y direction) of the side seal portion 8 shown in FIG. In this direction, there are small convex portions corresponding to the fused portions 81 ′ of the seal region 8a1, the seal region 8a2, and the seal region 8a3. Therefore, one side seal part 8 can be formed by one embossing.

サイドシール部8における融着部81’〜83’は、凸部80の小凸部によってエンボスされた部分であり、それによって、腹側部Aの側縁部と背側部Bの側縁部の相対向面が融着された部分である。融着部81’〜83’は、通常、エンボス処理によりフィルム化しており、サイドシール部8において、腹側部A又は背側部B側からの表面からの深さが最も深くなっている。尚、サイドシール部8が、胴回り部弾性部材63等により、幅方向(X方向)等に収縮している場合には、伸張した状態で、融着部81’〜83’の長さd1,d2,d3やピッチP1〜P3を測定する。   The fused portions 81 ′ to 83 ′ in the side seal portion 8 are portions embossed by the small convex portions of the convex portion 80, and thereby the side edge portions of the ventral side portion A and the back side portion B. This is a portion where the opposing surfaces of the two are fused. The fused portions 81 ′ to 83 ′ are usually formed into a film by an embossing process, and the side seal portion 8 has the deepest depth from the surface from the ventral side A or the back side B side. When the side seal portion 8 is contracted in the width direction (X direction) or the like by the waistline elastic member 63 or the like, the lengths d1 and f1 of the fused portions 81 ′ to 83 ′ are expanded. d2 and d3 and pitches P1 to P3 are measured.

サイドシール部8は、ウエスト開口部WO側の端部に位置する第1シール領域81における融着強度が、第1シール領域81より下方に位置する第2及び第3シール領域82,83それぞれの融着強度よりも低いことが好ましい。   The side seal portion 8 has a fusion strength in the first seal region 81 located at the end on the waist opening WO side, in each of the second and third seal regions 82 and 83 located below the first seal region 81. It is preferably lower than the fusion strength.

サイドシール部8の融着強度は、高い程、着用者の肌に硬さを感じさせ易くなる傾向がある。
ウエスト開口部WO側の端部に位置する第1シール領域81における融着強度を、それより下方に位置するシール領域82,83における融着強度よりも低くすることにより、おむつ自体の柔らかさの影響を最も受けやすいウエスト端部領域をやわらかくすることができる。また、廃棄時において融着部を剥がす際、大きな力を必要としない。更に、不慮の事態において万が一ウエスト端部領域が剥がれるようなことが生じても、それより下方に位置するシール領域は該領域より融着強度が高くなっているためおむつのズリ落ち、排泄物のモレ等の大きな不具合は生じない。
The higher the fusion strength of the side seal portion 8, the more easily the hardness of the wearer's skin tends to be felt.
By making the fusion strength in the first seal region 81 located at the end of the waist opening WO side lower than the fusion strength in the seal regions 82 and 83 located below the first seal region 81, the softness of the diaper itself can be reduced. It is possible to soften the waist end area most susceptible to the influence. Moreover, when peeling a fused part at the time of disposal, a big force is not required. Furthermore, even if the waist end region is peeled off in an unforeseen situation, the seal region located below it has a higher fusion strength than the region, causing the diaper to slip off and excrement. No major problems such as leakage occur.

このような観点から、第1シール領域81における融着強度は、0.3〜3N/5mm、特に0.3〜4.0N/5mmであることが好ましく、それより下方に位置するシール領域(第2及び第3シール領域)82,83の融着強度は2〜6N/5mm、特に2.5〜5N/5mmであることが好ましく、前者と後者の比(前者/後者)は、0.2〜0.9、特に0.3〜0.6であることが好ましい。   From such a viewpoint, the fusion strength in the first seal region 81 is preferably 0.3 to 3 N / 5 mm, and particularly preferably 0.3 to 4.0 N / 5 mm, and the seal region ( The fusion strength of the second and third seal regions) 82 and 83 is preferably 2 to 6 N / 5 mm, particularly preferably 2.5 to 5 N / 5 mm, and the ratio of the former to the latter (the former / the latter) is 0. It is preferable that it is 2-0.9, especially 0.3-0.6.

<融着強度の測定方法>
おむつ1からサイドシール部8をおむつ1の長手方向(Y方向)に沿って切り取る。この切り取りの際には、腹側部A及び背側部Bそれぞれにおける、サイドシール部8より中心線CL側に位置する部分が30mm程度含まれるようにする。
次に、切り取ったサイドシール部8をシール領域8a1、シール領域8a2及びシール領域8a3の部分で幅方向(X方向)にカットし、長手方向(Y方向)のシール部8の長さがそれぞれ5mmの、シール領域8a1のサンプル、シール領域8a2のサンプル及びシール領域8aのサンプルを得る。
各領域のシール強度を引張試験機〔商品名 オートグラフAGS50A (株)島津製作所製〕にて測定する。この測定の際には、各サンプルにおける、サイドシール部8より中心線CL側に位置していた腹側部に由来する部分と背側部に由来する部分とを、それぞれチャックに挟んで、180度反対方向に引っ張る(T字剥離)。
その際、引張速度(チャック間距離の拡大速度)300mm/minで測定を行い、最大強度を求める。測定はn=5回行い、その平均値にてその領域の融着強度とする。尚、各領域のシール部の長さが5mm取れない場合には、5mmに近い最大の幅にて測定を行い、5mmの幅に換算することにより融着強度を求める。サンプルのサイドシール部8を剥離させる際の剥離の進行方向は、サイドシール部8の幅方向と同方向(X方向)である
<Measurement method of fusion strength>
The side seal portion 8 is cut from the diaper 1 along the longitudinal direction (Y direction) of the diaper 1. At the time of this cutting, the portion located on the center line CL side from the side seal portion 8 in each of the ventral side portion A and the back side portion B is included about 30 mm.
Next, the cut side seal portion 8 is cut in the width direction (X direction) at the seal region 8a1, seal region 8a2, and seal region 8a3, and the length of the seal portion 8 in the longitudinal direction (Y direction) is 5 mm. The sample of the seal region 8a1, the sample of the seal region 8a2, and the sample of the seal region 8a are obtained.
The seal strength of each region is measured with a tensile tester [trade name: Autograph AGS50A, manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation]. In this measurement, a portion derived from the abdominal side portion and a portion derived from the back side portion, which were located on the center line CL side from the side seal portion 8 in each sample, were sandwiched between chucks, respectively. Pull in the opposite direction (T-peeling).
At that time, measurement is performed at a tensile speed (enlargement speed of the distance between chucks) of 300 mm / min to obtain the maximum strength. The measurement is performed n = 5 times, and the average value is used as the fusion strength of the region. In addition, when the length of the seal part of each area | region cannot take 5 mm, it measures by the maximum width | variety close | similar to 5 mm, and calculates | requires fusion strength by converting into the width of 5 mm. When the sample side seal portion 8 is peeled off, the direction of peeling is the same as the width direction of the side seal portion 8 (X direction).

And is substantially vertically long. As shown in FIG. 2, the absorbent main body 5 is disposed from the back side portion B to the ventral side portion A of the outer packaging material 6, and both ends of the longitudinal direction (Y direction) of the absorbent main body 5 are The outer packaging material 6 is in a position retracted inward in the longitudinal direction (Y direction) from both ends in the longitudinal direction (Y direction). The absorptive main body 5 is joined to the inner layer sheet 62 of the outer packaging material 6 by a joining method using an adhesive, heat sealing, ultrasonic sealing or the like.

吸収性本体5の長手方向(Y方向)両側部には、図2に示すように、液抵抗性又は撥水性の素材で且つ通気性の素材から構成された側方カフス51,51が設けられている。各側方カフス51の自由端部近傍には、側方カフス形成用の弾性部材52が長手方向(Y方向)に伸長した状態で配設固定されている。側方カフス51は、おむつの装着時に自由端部側が起立し、吸収性本体5の幅方向(X方向)への排泄物の流出を阻止することができる。側方カフス51形成用シートは、吸収性本体5の幅方向(X方向)外方側の所定幅の部分が、非肌当接面側に巻き込まれて、固定されている。   As shown in FIG. 2, side cuffs 51, 51 made of a liquid-resistant or water-repellent material and a breathable material are provided on both sides in the longitudinal direction (Y direction) of the absorbent main body 5. ing. In the vicinity of the free end portion of each side cuff 51, an elastic member 52 for forming the side cuff is disposed and fixed in a state of extending in the longitudinal direction (Y direction). The side cuffs 51 stand up at the free end when the diaper is worn, and can prevent excrement from flowing out in the width direction (X direction) of the absorbent main body 5. In the side cuff 51 forming sheet, a portion having a predetermined width on the outer side in the width direction (X direction) of the absorbent main body 5 is wound around the non-skin contact surface side and fixed.

上述したおむつ1の形成材料について説明する。
重合部7を構成するシート状の部材の融着成分は、ポリプロピレン、ポリエチレン又はポリエステル等の汎用の樹脂からなることがコスト的にも好ましいが、重合部7を構成する部材の融着成分同士が同系列の成分であることが好ましい。おむつ1においては、重合部7を構成する部材は、外層シート61(折り返し部61aを含む)及び内層シート62(折り返し部62aを含む)である。従って、外層シート61及び内層シート62が、互いに同系列の成分であることが好ましい。外層シート61及び内層シート62を構成する融着成分がポリプロピレンの同系列の成分であるとは、例えば、ポリプロピレン単体のホモPP繊維のみから形成された不織布シート、少量のエチレン等がプロピレン連鎖中にランダムに取り込まれたランダムPP繊維のみから形成された不織布シート、ホモPP樹脂又はランダムPP樹脂を50%以上含むが、ホモPP樹脂又はランダムPP樹脂以外の熱可塑性樹脂(例えばポリエチレン樹脂、ポリエステル樹脂等)を混合した芯鞘型複合繊維やサイドバイサイド型複合繊維から形成された不織布シート、ホモPP繊維又はランダムPP繊維を50%以上含むが、ホモPP繊維又はランダムPP繊維以外の繊維(例えばレーヨン繊維、コットン繊維、ポリエチレン繊維、ポリエステル繊維等)を混綿した繊維から形成された不織布シート等が挙げられる。
The formation material of the diaper 1 mentioned above is demonstrated.
The fusion component of the sheet-like member constituting the polymerization part 7 is preferably made of a general-purpose resin such as polypropylene, polyethylene or polyester, but the fusion component of the member constituting the polymerization part 7 The same series of components is preferred. In the diaper 1, the members constituting the overlapping portion 7 are the outer layer sheet 61 (including the folded portion 61a) and the inner layer sheet 62 (including the folded portion 62a). Therefore, it is preferable that the outer layer sheet 61 and the inner layer sheet 62 are components of the same series. The fusion component constituting the outer layer sheet 61 and the inner layer sheet 62 is a component of the same series of polypropylene, for example, a non-woven sheet formed from only polypropylene PP homopolypropylene, and a small amount of ethylene in the propylene chain. 50% or more of non-woven sheet, homo PP resin or random PP resin formed only from random PP fibers taken at random, but thermoplastic resin other than homo PP resin or random PP resin (for example, polyethylene resin, polyester resin, etc.) 50% or more of a non-woven sheet, a homo PP fiber or a random PP fiber formed from a core-sheath type composite fiber or a side-by-side type composite fiber mixed with a non-homo PP fiber or a random PP fiber (for example, rayon fiber, Cotton fiber, polyethylene fiber, polyester fiber, etc.) Nonwoven sheets made from cotton mixing the fibers.

外層シート61及び内層シート62を構成する融着成分がポリエチレン又はポリエステルと同系列の成分であるとは、ポリプロピレンの同系列の成分と同様に解することができる。特に、ポリエチレンと同系列の成分であるとは、芯部がポリエステル樹脂で鞘部がポリエチレン樹脂からなる芯鞘型複合繊維やサイドバイサイド型複合繊維、芯部がポリプロピレン樹脂で鞘部がポリエチレン樹脂からなる芯鞘型複合繊維やサイドバイサイド型複合繊維を混綿した繊維から形成された不織布シート等が好ましい。また、特に、ポリエステルと同系列の成分であるとは、芯部がポリエステル樹脂で鞘部が低融点ポリエステル樹脂からなる芯鞘型複合繊維やサイドバイサイド型複合繊維を混綿した繊維から形成された不織布シート等が好ましい。重合部7を構成する部材の融着成分が、ポリプロピレン、ポリエチレン又はポリエステルと同系列の成分であると、融着成分の相溶性が良く、融着強度が良好であるため、より低温で融着することができる。従って、高温でエンボス処理をする必要がないため、エンボス処理された部分以外の部分が硬化することがなく、サイドシール部全体が柔らかくなり、肌触りが向上する。   It can be understood that the fusion component constituting the outer layer sheet 61 and the inner layer sheet 62 is a component of the same series as that of polyethylene or polyester, similarly to the component of the same series of polypropylene. In particular, a component of the same series as polyethylene means that a core-sheath type composite fiber or side-by-side type composite fiber whose core part is made of polyester resin and whose sheath part is made of polyethylene resin, and whose core part is made of polypropylene resin and whose sheath part is made of polyethylene resin. A nonwoven fabric sheet or the like formed from a fiber in which a core-sheath type composite fiber or a side-by-side type composite fiber is mixed is preferable.
