  This invention is made | formed in view of the above-mentioned subject, and it aims at providing the package body of the absorbent article which can perform the mounting | wearing operation | work of an absorbent article easily.

  According to the applicant's investigation, for example, in developing countries, there are many toilets that do not have a toilet seat to sit on, and there is no space for placing a package of absorbent articles on their thighs. .

  Further, even in the case of a Western-style toilet, since the hygienic environment is poor, the wearer may perform a wearing operation while standing on the toilet seat or in a middle waist state. Therefore, it was found that even a Western-style toilet has no space for placing the absorbent article package on its thighs.

  In addition, there are no shelves for placing absorbent article packages in the toilet room, and even if there are shelves, there are many wearers who do not place absorbent article packages due to hygiene problems. I found out that

  The package of the absorbent article according to the present disclosure is made based on such knowledge, and is a liquid-permeable top sheet (top sheet 10), a liquid-impermeable back sheet (back sheet 20), And an absorbent article (absorbent article 1) having an absorbent body (absorbent body 30) disposed between the top sheet and the back sheet, and the absorbent article folded in a state in which the absorbent article is disposed, A packaging sheet (packaging sheet 70) for individually packaging the functional article, and an adhesive tape (one end of which is releasably attached to the surface of the packaging sheet and the other end is joined to the longitudinal end of the packaging sheet) An absorbent article package (absorbent article package 100) having a first adhesive layer (first adhesive layer 95) and a first substrate (adhesive tape 90). A first base material 91) and a second adhesive layer (second A second base material (second base material 92) are laminated in this order, and the first adhesive layer is configured to contact the surface (non-facing surface 72) of the packaging sheet. And a connecting portion for connecting the first base material and the second base material is provided, and the second adhesive layer is bonded to the second base material and can be peeled off from the first base material. So that the second adhesive layer is exposed when the second base material and the second adhesive layer are peeled off from the first base material and folded back from the connecting portion. It is summarized as follows.

  According to the package of the absorbent article according to the present invention, the second adhesive layer is exposed when the second base material and the second adhesive layer are peeled off from the first base material and folded back from the connecting portion. Since it is comprised so, the package of an absorbent article can be affixed on the wall of a toilet, or a wearer's body through the exposed 2nd adhesion layer. Therefore, even when there is no space for placing the absorbent article package, the absorbent article can be easily attached using both hands with the absorbent article package temporarily attached.

(First embodiment)
With reference to FIGS. 1-5, the package 100 of the absorbent article which concerns on 1st Embodiment is demonstrated. FIG. 1 is a plan view showing a folded state of a package of absorbent articles, and FIG. 2 is a plan view showing a developed state of the package of absorbent articles. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA in FIG. The absorbent article packaging body 100 includes an absorbent article 1, a packaging sheet 70 for individually packaging the absorbent article 1, and an adhesive tape 90 for sealing the packaging sheet in a folded state. The absorbent article 1 according to the present embodiment is, for example, a sanitary napkin.

  In the package 100 of the absorbent article 1, the absorbent article 1 is individually wrapped by folding the packaging sheet 70 and the absorbent article 1 in a state where the absorbent article 1 is disposed on the packaging sheet 70. Yes.

  The absorbent article 1 includes a top sheet 10 that comes into contact with the wearer's skin, a liquid-impermeable back sheet 20 that does not transmit liquid, and an absorber 30. The absorber 30 is disposed between the top sheet 10 and the back sheet 20. The absorbent body 30 is disposed at a substantially central portion in the longitudinal direction L and the width direction W of the absorbent article 1. In addition, the absorbent article 1 may be provided with the wing part and hip flap part provided in the outer side of the absorber 30 in the width direction.

  The top sheet 10 is a liquid-permeable sheet that transmits liquid such as body fluid. The top sheet 10 covers at least the surface of the absorber 30. The top sheet 10 is not particularly limited as long as it is a sheet-like material having a structure that allows liquid to permeate, such as a nonwoven fabric, a woven fabric, a perforated plastic sheet, and a mesh sheet. Either natural fibers or chemical fibers can be used as the woven or non-woven material.

  The back sheet 20 has substantially the same length as that of the top sheet 10. The back sheet 20 may be a film mainly composed of polyethylene, polypropylene, or the like, a breathable resin film, a sheet obtained by bonding a breathable resin film to a nonwoven fabric such as spunbond or spunlace. The back sheet 20 is preferably made of a material having flexibility that does not cause a sense of incongruity when worn.

  The absorber 30 includes hydrophilic fibers and pulp. The absorber 30 may be formed by laminating hydrophilic fibers or powder by the airlaid method, or may be an airlaid sheet obtained by forming hydrophilic fibers or powder into a sheet shape by the airlaid method.

  In the absorbent article 1, the periphery of the surface sheet 10 and the back surface sheet 20 is joined, and the absorber 30 is enclosed. As a method for joining the top sheet 10 and the back sheet 20, any one or a combination of heat embossing, ultrasonic waves, and hot melt can be used.

  In the back sheet 20, a pressure-sensitive adhesive (not shown) is applied in a line along the longitudinal direction of the back sheet 20 on the surface in contact with the shorts. The pressure-sensitive adhesive is applied in a plurality of lines along the longitudinal direction L of the back sheet 20. In the state before use, the protective sheet 40 for maintaining the adhesiveness is adhered to the adhesive.

  The protective sheet 40 is bonded to the packaging sheet 70 via a hot melt adhesive (not shown). Since the protective sheet 40 and the packaging sheet 70 are bonded, the absorbent article 1 and the protective sheet 40 are separated by opening the packaging sheet 70 and separating the absorbent article 1 and the packaging sheet 70. Therefore, the wearer can easily wear the absorbent article 1 by exposing the pressure-sensitive adhesive to the surface of the back sheet, even if the wearer is not aware of the work of removing the protective sheet 40 from the absorbent article. Can do.

  The packaging sheet 70 packages the absorbent article 1 individually. The packaging sheet 70 has a facing surface 71 that faces the absorbent article 1 on the back sheet 20 side of the absorbent article 1 and a non-facing surface 72 that is positioned outside in a state in which the absorbent article 1 is accommodated.

  Note that the packaging sheet 70 may be subjected to surface processing such as round dot embossing or satin embossing on the surface of the packaging sheet 70 for the purpose of improving the texture or the like. As a material of the packaging sheet 70, for example, plastic films such as polyolefin, polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyester, various films such as nylon film, a breathable film stretched with a filler such as barium sulfate, a nonwoven fabric, and a laminate of a nonwoven fabric are laminated. And the like.

  In a state where the absorbent article 1 is disposed on the facing surface 71 of the packaging sheet 70, the absorbent article 1 and the packaging sheet 70 are folded with the first fold F1 along the width direction W as a base point, and then in the width direction. The second fold along the line is folded as a base point. Thus, the front end portion 70C, which is the end portion in the longitudinal direction of the packaging sheet, is folded on the non-facing surface (front surface) 72 on the first fold line side of the packaging sheet by being folded using the first fold line F1 and the second fold line F2 as a base point. Placed in.

  An adhesive tape 90 is joined to a front end portion 70C located on the front side of the absorbent article among both end portions in the longitudinal direction of the packaging sheet, and the adhesive tape 90 is attached to the non-facing surface 72 which is the surface of the packaging sheet 70 by the adhesive tape 90. It is attached so that it can be peeled off.

  In a state where the absorbent article 1 and the packaging sheet 70 are folded with the first fold line F1 and the second fold line F2 as the starting point, the opposite packaging sheets are heat-welded to both end portions 70A and 70B in the width direction of the packaging sheet. The 1st sheet | seat adhesion part 73 adhere | attached by is provided. Further, in a state where the absorbent article 1 and the packaging sheet 70 are folded with the first fold line and the second fold line as the base points, the packaging sheet is longer in the longitudinal direction than the front end portion 70C of the packaging sheet (the second state in the folded state). On the crease side, there is provided a second sheet bonding portion 74 in which the opposing packaging sheets are bonded together by a hot melt adhesive.

  In a state where the packaging sheet 70 is folded, the absorbent sheets are sealed in the packaging sheet by adhering the packaging sheets 70 to each other by the first sheet adhesion portion 73 and the second sheet adhesion portion 74.

  Next, the configuration of the adhesive tape 90 will be described in detail. In the adhesive tape 90, the first adhesive layer 95, the first base material 91, the second adhesive layer 96, and the second base material 92 are laminated in the thickness direction T of the absorbent article. The first adhesive layer 95 is in contact with the non-facing surface 72 of the packaging sheet 70.

  The adhesive tape 90 is located on the first fold F1 side, and is located on the second fold F2 side, the first end 90A that is detachably attached to the non-facing surface 72 of the folded packaging sheet, And a second end portion 90B joined to the front end portion 70C of the packaging sheet 70. In the state shown in FIG. 1, the adhesive tape 90 is disposed across the front end portion 70 </ b> C of the packaging sheet 70.

  In the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 90 according to the first embodiment, a connecting portion that connects the first base material 91 and the second base material 92 is provided on the first end portion 90A side, and on the second end portion 90B side. The second base material 92 and the second pressure-sensitive adhesive 96 are configured to be peelable from the first base material 91.

  The first adhesive layer 95 has a first end portion 95A located on the first fold line F1 side and a second end portion 95B located on the second fold line F2 side. The first adhesive layer 95 is an adhesive layer for attaching the adhesive tape 90 to the packaging sheet 70. The first adhesive layer 95 is bonded to the first base material 91 and is configured to be peelable from the packaging sheet 70 together with the first base material 91. A second adhesive layer 96 is disposed on the outer side in the thickness direction of the first base material 91 (the surface opposite to the packaging sheet).

  The second adhesive layer 96 has a first end 96A located on the first fold F1 side and a second end 96B located on the second fold F2 side. The second adhesive layer 96 is an adhesive layer for temporarily sticking the package 100 to the wall or the wearer's body via the adhesive tape 90. The second adhesive layer 96 is bonded to the second base material 92 and is configured to be peelable from the first base material 91 together with the second base material 92.

  The first base 91 has a first end 91A located on the first fold F1 side and a second end 91B located on the second fold F2 side. The first base material 91 is configured to be more easily peeled from the second adhesive layer 96 than the first adhesive layer 95.

  The second base 92 has a first end 92A located on the first fold F1 side and a second end 92B located on the second fold F2 side. The first end portion 92A of the second base material is folded back toward the packaging sheet side so as to involve the first end portion 91A of the first base material.

  The second base material 92 and the first base material 91 folded back to the packaging sheet side are joined by a third adhesive layer 97. The first base material 91 and the second base material 92 are constituted by different base materials, and are connected by being joined by the third joint portion 97. The first end portion 92 </ b> A and the third joint portion 97 of the second base material 92 function as a connecting portion that connects the first base material 91 and the second base material 92.

  The second base material 92 and the second adhesive layer 96 can be separated from the first base material 91 on the second end portion 90B side of the adhesive tape 90, and the first end portion 92A that is a folded portion of the second base material is removed. It is configured to be folded back to the base point. The second base material 92 and the second adhesive layer 96 are separated from the first base material 91, and are folded back with the first end 92A as a base point so that the second adhesive layer 96 is exposed. Yes.

  Since the second adhesive layer 96 is configured to be exposed, the absorbent article packaging body can be attached to the toilet wall or the wearer's body through the exposed second adhesive layer. Therefore, even when there is no space for placing the absorbent article package, the absorbent article can be mounted in a state where the absorbent article package is temporarily attached.

  Even in a state where the second base material 92 and the second adhesive layer 96 are peeled from the first base material 91, the first adhesive layer 95 and the first base material 91 are bonded to the packaging sheet 70. Therefore, the state where the absorbent article is individually packaged by the packaging sheet can be maintained. Therefore, it is possible to perform a mounting operation such as a removal operation of the absorbent article after use in a state where the absorbent article is protected by the packaging sheet.

  Further, the second end portion 92B of the second base material 92 extends to the second fold line F2 side with respect to the second end portion 96B of the second adhesive layer 96. This extended portion is a non-adhesive region where the second adhesive layer 96 is not provided, and functions as a second base grip portion 92C.

  A plurality of base materials are laminated on the adhesive tape 90, and it may be difficult to properly grip only the second base material 92. However, by providing the second base material grip portion 92C, the wearer can easily grip only the second base material, and workability can be improved.

  Furthermore, the second end 91 </ b> B of the first base material 91 extends to the second end side of the adhesive tape from the second end 92 </ b> B of the second end 92. For example, if the second end portion 91B of the first base material 91 and the second end portion 92B of the second base material 92 match, the wearer cannot recognize that a plurality of base materials are laminated. There is. However, since the positions of the end portions of the first base material 91 and the second base material 92 are shifted, the wearer can easily recognize each base material.

  Furthermore, since the second end portion 91B of the first base material 91 and the second end portion 92B of the second base material 92 are arranged so as to be shifted, the position of the second end portion 91B of the first base material 91 and The position of the second end 92B of the second base material 92 can be made conspicuous.

  In addition, in order to make the 1st base material 91 and the 2nd base material 92 each easy to recognize, even if it makes the 1st base material 91 and the 2nd base material 92 visually differ, or it makes tactile sensations different. Good. Specifically, a configuration in which a pattern or a pattern is different, a color is different, a surface texture (friction coefficient) is different, or a thickness is different can be exemplified.

  The first end 91 </ b> A of the first base material 91 extends to the first fold F <b> 1 side with respect to the first end 96 </ b> A of the first adhesive layer 96. This extending portion is a non-adhesive region where the first adhesive layer is not provided, and functions as the first base material grip portion 91C.

  Further, the second base material 92 is folded back in the thickness direction T at the second end portion 90 </ b> B of the adhesive tape 90. The folded portion is a non-adhesive region where the first adhesive layer is not provided, and functions as the first base material grip portion 91C. Thus, by providing the grip part for 1st base materials, a wearer becomes easy to grip a 1st base material easily and workability | operativity can be improved.

  Next, an aspect of removing the absorbent article from the packaging sheet of the absorbent article package 100 configured as described above will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the absorbent article package, and FIG. 5 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the adhesive tape portion of the cross-sectional view shown in FIG.

  4A and 5A show a state in which the package 100 of the absorbent article is folded, and the adhesive tape 90 is attached to the packaging sheet 70. FIG. The wearer grips the second base material grip portion 92C and turns the second base material 92 and the second adhesive layer 96 back to the second fold side with the second end 92B of the second base material 92 as a base point. Pull on. Accordingly, as shown in FIGS. 4B and 5B, the second adhesive layer 96 is peeled from the first base material 91, and the second adhesive layer 96 is exposed.

  At this time, in the thickness direction, the first adhesive layer 95 is located closer to the packaging sheet 70 than the first base material 91 and the second base material 92, and the second adhesive layer 96 is the first base material 91 and the second base material 92. It is located on the opposite side of the packaging sheet 70 from the base material 92. Therefore, the front end portion 70C of the packaging sheet 70 is joined by the first adhesive layer 95 disposed on one surface of the adhesive tape 90, and the second adhesive layer 96 disposed on the other surface of the adhesive tape 90. The package 100 of an absorbent article can be joined to a wall or the like. FIG. 4C shows a state in which the package 100 of the absorbent article is bonded to the wall S.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the distance Lc between the front end portion of the packaging sheet and the first fold is shorter than the distance Ld between the front end portion 70C of the packaging sheet 70 and the second fold F2 when the packaging sheet is folded. Has been. That is, the front end portion 70C of the packaging sheet and the adhesive tape 90 are located closer to the first fold F1. Since the front end portion 70C of the packaging sheet 70 and the adhesive tape 90 are arranged close to the first fold F1, the absorbent body 100 absorbs when the package 100 of the absorbent article is attached to a wall or the like via the second adhesive layer 96. The second adhesive layer 96 is positioned above the center of gravity of the packaging body 100 of the active article. Therefore, the stability at the time of temporary fixing can be improved. In addition, since the second adhesive layer 96 is positioned relatively upward, when the absorbent article packaging body 100 is peeled from the wall or the like, the absorbent article packaging body is easily pulled off by pulling downward. Can do.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 1, the distance La between the second end portion 96 </ b> B of the second adhesive layer 96 and the first end portion 92 </ b> A that is the folding base point of the second base material 92 is the first of the second base material 92. It is longer than the distance Lb between the end portion 92A and the first fold line F1. According to such a structure, the 2nd adhesion layer 96 is extended and arrange | positioned rather than the packaging sheet 70 in the longitudinal direction in the exposed state.

  For example, when the second adhesive layer 96 is disposed on the inner side in the longitudinal direction than the packaging sheet, the annual adhesive tape 90 is hidden in the packaging sheet when the packaging body 100 of the absorbent article is temporarily fixed to a wall or the like. . Therefore, the visibility of the adhesive tape is poor and it is difficult to fix it in an appropriate place. However, since the second adhesive layer 96 is exposed to the outside in the longitudinal direction from the packaging sheet 70, the position of the adhesive tape can be properly grasped, and the operability is improved.

  Further, since the second adhesive layer is exposed to extend outward in the longitudinal direction from the packaging sheet 70, the adhesive tape 90 itself is attached to the wall or the like when the absorbent article packaging body is fixed to the wall or the like. The package 100 of an absorbent article can be temporarily fixed by pressing.

  Furthermore, the 2nd adhesion layer is extended in the longitudinal direction outer side from the packaging sheet 70 in the exposed state, and is spaced apart from the packaging sheet 70 and the absorbent article 1 in the longitudinal direction. For example, when the second adhesive layer 96 and the absorbent article 1 are arranged close to each other, some wearers feel resistance to pressing the second adhesive layer against a wall or the like from the hygiene aspect. However, when the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is exposed, the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is disposed so as to extend outward in the longitudinal direction from the packaging sheet, thereby fixing the absorbent article packaging body to a wall or the like. In addition, since the second adhesive layer bonded to the wall or the like is separated from the absorbent article, the sense of resistance can be reduced.

  The absorbent article package may be joined to the toilet wall by the second adhesive layer, or the absorbent article package may be joined to a part of the body such as the wearer's leg or a bag or other belongings. Also good.

  Moreover, there exists a possibility that the joining location of a 2nd adhesion layer may adhere easily with dirt, a foreign material, etc. adhering. Therefore, it is desirable that the second adhesive layer has a higher bonding strength than the first adhesive layer.

  A wearer can perform the operation | work which removes the absorbent article after use with both hands in the state which affixed the package of the absorbent article temporarily. After removing the absorbent article after use, removing the absorbent article 1 from the packaging sheet 70 by removing the absorbent article package from the wall or the like, developing the absorbent article package It can be carried out.

  In addition, the joint strength in this Embodiment is the difficulty of peeling with the adhesive surface of a 1st adhesion layer and a 2nd adhesion layer, for example, is measured by the peeling test of the adhesive tape shown below. A constant speed extension tensile tester is used as the measurement tester.

  First, the absorbent article package is left for 30 minutes in an atmosphere of 20 ° C. and 60% relative humidity. When measuring the adhesive strength of the first adhesive layer, the state where the first adhesive layer is affixed to the packaging sheet, and when measuring the adhesive strength of the second adhesive layer, the state where the second adhesive layer is affixed to the packaging sheet Then, a cellophane tape as a grip portion of the adhesive tape is attached to one end of the adhesive tape. Next, a gum tape is affixed as a grip portion of the packaging sheet to a location 2 mm away from one end of the adhesive tape toward the first fold side. In this state, the gum tape is sandwiched between the lower chucks, the cellophane tape is sandwiched between the upper chucks, and peeling is performed.

The peeling conditions are as follows.
Chuck interval: 30mm
Tensile speed: 300mm / min
Chart speed: 300mm / min

  Record the maximum value of the tensile tester at this time. The number of samples is 5, and the average value is the bonding strength.

  When unfolding the package of the absorbent article, as shown in FIG. 5C, the first adhesive layer first is pulled by pulling the second base material and the second adhesive layer away from the packaging sheet. The end portion 95 </ b> A side is separated from the packaging sheet, and the front end portion 70 </ b> C of the packaging sheet 70 is separated from the non-facing surface 72 of the packaging sheet 70.

  In addition, when unpacking the absorbent article packaging body, as shown in FIG. 5C, the second adhesive layer 96 may be exposed, or the second adhesive layer 96 may be used as the first base material. After pasting on (after returning to the original state), the first substrate gripping portion 91C may be gripped.

  Moreover, the operation | work which remove | deploys a packaging sheet and removes an absorbent article from a packaging sheet in the state which temporarily fixed the packaging body of the absorbent article to the wall etc. may be performed. FIG.4 (d) has shown the state which expand | deployed a part of packaging sheet in the state which temporarily fixed the packaging body of the absorbent article to the wall etc. FIG. With the absorbent article packaging body temporarily fixed to a wall or the like, a part of the packaging sheet was developed to attach the absorbent article packaging body to the wall or the like as shown in FIG. In the state, the absorbent article can be easily removed from the packaging sheet.

  Subsequently, a part of manufacturing method of the package of the absorbent article which concerns on this embodiment is demonstrated. In addition, about the method (for example, manufacturing method of an absorbent article) which is not demonstrated in this Embodiment, the existing method can be used. The manufacturing method of the package of an absorbent article folds an absorbent article and a packaging sheet on the basis of the 1st fold and the 2nd fold in the state where the absorbent article was arranged on the packaging sheet. In this state, both end portions 70A and 70B in the width direction of the packaging sheet are joined by heat welding, and the front end portion 70C of the packaging sheet is joined to the surface of the facing packaging sheet 70.

  Next, the adhesive tape 90 is bonded onto the packaging sheet such that the first adhesive layer of the adhesive tape 90 contacts the non-opposing surface of the packaging sheet 70. The adhesive tape may be configured in advance to be adhered to the packaging sheet in a state where the first adhesive layer, the first base material, the second adhesive layer, and the second base material are laminated, The first base material is disposed on the packaging sheet after the first adhesive layer is applied on the packaging sheet, and the second base material is disposed after the second adhesive layer is applied on the first base material.
