  The details of the package 10 according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the attached drawings.

First Embodiment
1 to 3, the package 10 has a longitudinal direction (first direction) Y, a lateral direction (second direction) X, and a thickness direction Z which intersect with each other (orthogonal), and the packaging sheet 20 , A plurality of breast milk pads 30a, 30b packaged in a packaging sheet 20. In the packaging body 10, the packaging sheet 20 is folded via a sheet folding line, and the plurality of breast milk pads 30a and 30b are arranged to face each other in the thickness direction Z. The breast milk pads 30a and 30b have a first breast milk pad 30a and a second breast milk pad 30b which are the same size and size and have the same configuration. The package 10 further includes opposite end edges 10a and 10b opposed in the longitudinal direction.

  Referring to FIG. 3, the packaging sheet 20 is formed of a thermoplastic non-woven fabric of synthetic resin, a non-woven fabric of non-woven fabric and non-woven fabric of non-woven fabric, or a laminate sheet of non-woven fabric of non-woven fabric and synthetic resin film. Has a large longitudinal rectangular shape. The packaging sheet 20 has an outer shape, and a sheet main body 21 having an inner surface 21A on which the breast milk pads 30a and 30b are disposed and an outer surface 21B opposite to the inner surface 21A. 22, 23 and laterally opposed first and second side edges 24, 25. Here, the first edge 22 means the direction in which the distal edge 64 of the breast milk pad 30a, 30b is facing.

  On the inner surface of the packaging sheet 20, the breast milk pads 30a and 30b folded in half are arranged at intervals in the longitudinal direction, and the breast milk pads 30a and 30b respectively extend in the lateral direction on the inner surface It is covered by 50b. The covering portions 50 a and 50 b respectively have both side fixing portions 51 and 52 overlapping with the side edges of the sheet main body 21, and a closed end (fixed end) portion 53 and an opening end 54 extending laterally between the both side fixing portions 51. , And a storage space defined by the both side fixed parts 51 and 52, the closed end 53 and the open end 54.

  The breast milk pads 30 a and 30 b are arranged in the housing space of the covering portions 50 a and 50 b in a state of being folded in half, and a part thereof is exposed from the opening end 54. The covering portions 50a and 50b may be formed integrally with the sheet main body 21 or may be formed from a separate sheet made of a fiber non-woven fabric of the same or a different type as the sheet main body 21. In the present embodiment, the covering portion 50a covering the breast milk pad 30a is a separate body from the sheet main body 21 and is bonded or welded to the sheet main body 21 at the both side fixing portions 51, 52 and the closed end 53. It is done. On the other hand, the covering portion 50b covering the breast milk pad 30b is formed integrally with the packaging sheet 20 by folding the end of the packaging sheet 20 and joining the sheet main body 21 at both side fixing portions 51 and 52. .

  The sheet body 21 has a sheet bending line 18 extending in the lateral direction between the covering portion 50a and the covering portion 50b. A fastening tab 19 having a fastening portion for maintaining the folded state of the packaging sheet 20 is disposed on the outer surface 21B of the end (opening end) on the first edge 22 side of the packaging sheet 20 . The fastening portion is releasably attachable to a part of the facing packaging sheet 20 in a bent state, and any one of an adhesive, a pressure sensitive adhesive, or a hook element of a mechanical fastener is suitably used. Used.

  A portion (first portion) of the packaging sheet 20 on the first edge 22 side from the sheet folding line 18 of the packaging sheet 20 along the sheet folding line 18 located between the covering portions 50a and 50b from the unfolded state thereof Are bent so that the inner surfaces of the sheet folding curve 18 face each other toward the second end 23 side of the sheet folding curve 18 (the second part), and the fastening tab 19 located at the end on the first end 22 side The package 10 is formed by fastening the second portion to the outer surface (portion facing the breast milk pad 30b) of the second portion. In the packaging sheet 20, the sealing portions 15 are formed by welding the overlapping portions of the side edges to each other.

  In the present specification, that the package 10 is in the packaged state is a state when the package 10 is marketed, including the state in which the fastening is performed by the fastening tab 19 for maintaining the packaged state (package It means that it is in the state of being housed in the package). Therefore, as long as the predetermined packaging form is maintained, the packaging state includes a state in which the fastening sheet 19 is not included, and the packaging sheet 20 is folded. Further, in the state in which the packaging sheet 20 (packaging body 10) is expanded, a part of the distal edge portion 64 of one of the breast milk pads 30a and 30b is exposed to the outside. It means that it can be removed.

  Hereinafter, the configuration of the breast milk pad 30a will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. However, the breast milk pad 30b has a similar configuration. The breast milk pad 30a has a substantially elliptical shape and is opposed in the longitudinal direction to the first and second end edges 31 and 32 having a shape which is convex outward in the longitudinal direction and which are opposed in the longitudinal direction. Each has side edges 33 and 34 linearly extending in the longitudinal direction. The breast milk pad 30a further has a laterally extending pad fold 35. The breast milk pad 30a has, for convenience of explanation, a first area 61 extending from the pad folding line 35 toward the one end 31 and a second area 62 extending from the pad folding line to the other end 32 in the longitudinal direction. It is divided.

  The pad folding curve 35 extends in parallel with an imaginary longitudinal center line P which divides the longitudinal dimension of the first breast milk pad 30 a into two equal parts, and on the second edge 32 side of the longitudinal center line P. positioned. Therefore, the first region 61 has a larger dimension in the longitudinal direction than the second region 62, and when the breast milk pad 30a is folded in two along the pad folding curve 35 so that the skin opposing surface sides face each other, The first area 61 extends outward in the longitudinal direction more than the second area 62.

  The breast milk pad 30a is located on the non-skin opposing surface side, the skin opposing surface facing the wearer's skin, the non-skin opposing surface opposite to that, the liquid-permeable inner sheet 41 located on the skin opposing surface side A liquid permeable outer sheet 42 and an absorbent body 43 interposed between the inner sheet 41 and the outer sheet 42 are provided. The inner and outer sheets 41 and 42 and the absorbent body 43 are bonded to each other through an adhesive applied to any one of their opposing surfaces. The inner and outer sheets 41 and 42 can be formed of one fiber non-woven fabric, a fiber non-woven fabric and a fiber non-woven fabric, or a laminate sheet of a fiber non-woven fabric and a synthetic resin film.

  The non-skin facing surface side of the outer sheet 42 has a plurality of pad fastening areas 44 extending in the longitudinal direction and spaced apart from one another in the lateral direction. The pad fastening area 44 has a plurality of fastening parts 44a fastened to the inner surface of an underwear such as a bra. The fastening portion 44a is adhesive and is covered with a separator (release paper) 46 formed of release paper. Although not shown, in order to provide cushioning properties and / or to prevent the liquid return of the absorbed body fluid, a flexible and relatively bulky material is provided between the inner sheet 41 and the absorbent body 43. You may arrange the second sheet which consists of a fiber nonwoven fabric.

  The absorbent body 43 is formed of a semi-rigid absorbent core, which is an assembly of absorbent materials such as super absorbent polymer particles (SAP) and ground pulp, and a liquid permeable sheet such as tissue paper. And an enclosing core cover sheet. Absorbent body 43 has substantially the same shape as breast milk pad 30a, and has both end edges 43a and 43b which are curved outward in the longitudinal direction and both side edges 43c and 43d extending in the longitudinal direction between both end edges 43a and 43b. .

  The breast milk pad 30 a further includes an outer peripheral flap 47 formed of an extended portion of the inner and outer sheets 41, 42 extending from the outer periphery of the absorbent body 43. Of the outer peripheral flaps 47, the portions (side flaps) located laterally outward from the side edges 43c, 43d of the absorbent body 43 are longitudinal directions along the first and second side edges 24, 25 of the breast milk pad 30a. An outer elastic body 48 extending to the lower side is attached in an expandable manner in a contracted state.

  Inside the lateral elastic body 48 in the lateral direction, between the outer surface sheet 42 and the absorbent body 43, the internal elastic body 49 extending longitudinally along the side edges 43c and 43d of the absorbent body 43 shrinks in a contracted state It is arranged as possible. The breast milk pad 30a can have a three-dimensionally curved shape (cup shape) along the wearer's breast in the wearing state by having the inner and outer elastic bodies 48, 49. The outer peripheral flap 47 of the breast milk pad 30a and a part of the absorber 43 may be embossed so that the breast milk pad 30a has a more stable cup shape.

  The breast milk pads 30a and 30b extend in the longitudinal direction from the proximal edge 63 along the proximal edge 63 along the pad folding curve 35 in a state of being folded in two via the pad folding curve 35. It has a distal edge 64 formed from the outer peripheral edge of the first and second zones 61, 62 folded over each other via a curve 35. Here, the outer peripheral edge portions of the first and second regions 61 and 62 mean portions having the outer shape of the first and second regions 61 and 62 except for the portion forming the proximal edge 63.

  In the breast milk pads 30a, 30b, the proximal edge 63 is a portion extending laterally between the opposite edges along the first and second side edges 24, 25 and the distal edge 64 is the proximal edge This means a portion (excluding the arrangement area of the separator 46) extending along the outer periphery of the first and second areas 61, 62 so as to be convexly curved outward in the longitudinal direction from the portion 63. Thus, the distal edge 64 comprises the peripheral flaps 47 of the breast milk pads 30a, 30b and part of the absorbent body 43.

  Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the breast milk pads 30a and 30b are disposed on the inner surface of the packaging sheet 20 in a manner of being folded in two via the pad folding line 35, and covered with the covering portions 50a and 50b, respectively. There is. Specifically, the proximal edge 63 of the breast milk pad 30a, 30b and a part of the distal edge 64 on the proximal edge 63 side are disposed within the receiving space of the covering portions 50a, 50b, A part of the portion 64 is exposed to the outside from the open end 54 of the covering portions 50a and 50b.

  The separator 46 fixed to the breast milk pads 30a and 30b through the pad fixing area 44 is fixed to the inner surface of the sheet body 21 of the packaging sheet 20 through the pair of releasable fixing portions 16a and 16b extending in the lateral direction. It is done. The fixing portions 16a and 16b are formed by a known bonding means or welding means, and have higher peel strength than the fastening area. The fixing portions 16a and 16b are a fixing portion (first fixing portion) 16a for fixing the separator 46 on the second area 62 side of the breast milk pads 30a and 30b, and a separator 46 for fixing the first area 61 side. And a fixing portion (second fixing portion) 16b.

  Referring to FIG. 2, in the packaging aspect of the packaging 10, the breast milk pads 30a, 30b are located opposite each other in the thickness direction Z, and their distal edges 64 are mutually different in the longitudinal direction It is oriented. Here, when the directions of the distal edges 64 of the breast milk pads 30 a and 30 b are different from each other, one distal edge 64 extending longitudinally from the proximal edge 63 in the package 10 is the package 10. It means that it extends to the first end 10a side and the other distal edge 64 extends to the different end 10a, 10b side so as to extend to the second end 10b.

  In the packaging state of the packaging body 10, the breast milk pads 30a and 30b may partially overlap each other in the thickness direction Z, for example, a portion having a size of half or more may or may not overlap at all. Good. In the illustrated package 10, in the packaging state, the directions of the distal edges 64 of the breast milk pads 30a and 30b are mutually different in the longitudinal direction, and the proximal edge where the semi-rigid absorber 43 is bent Since the two pieces 63 do not overlap each other in the thickness direction Z, a large deviation occurs in the thickness of the entire package 10, and a distorted outer shape is not generated. Thus, stacking and carrying of the plurality of packages 10 is easy, and the package 10 can be compactly accommodated in a packaging bag (package) including the plurality of packages 10.

  In addition, by positioning the proximal edges 63 of the breast milk pads 30a and 30b having elastic resilience by bending the absorber 43 at both end portions in the longitudinal direction of the package 10, the rigidity of the both ends is increased. It becomes relatively high, and it is possible to suppress the corner from being broken or deformed by external impact. In consideration of the portability of the package 10 and the compactness of the shape, the overlapping portion of the breast milk pads 30a and 30b preferably has a size of 40 to 80% of the entire area of the respective breast milk pads 30a and 30b.

  Referring again to FIG. 3, when the package 10 is used, the orientation of the distal edge 64 of the breast milk pads 30a, 30b is the same in the longitudinal direction, with the fastening tab 19 released and fastened. A portion of the distal edge 64 is exposed to the outside from the covering portions 50a and 50b. Here, when the package 10 is in the unfolded state, the same direction in the longitudinal direction of the distal edges 64 of the breast milk pads 30a, 30b means that the distal edges extending longitudinally from the proximal edge 63. This means that the portions 64 both extend toward the first end 22 or the second end 23 of the packaging sheet 20 and toward the same end 22, 23 respectively.

  The package 10 according to the present embodiment is in its unfolded state, that is, a state in which a part of the distal edge portion 64 of one of the breast milk pads 30a and 30b is exposed to the outside for removal. , A portion of the distal edge 64 of the other breast milk pad 30b is exposed and ready for removal. Therefore, the wearer can imagine how to take out the other breast milk pad 30b before unfolding the package 10 and taking out one breast milk pad 30a, and the operation of taking out the two breast milk pads 30a, 30b is quick. And can be done smoothly.

  Since the breast milk pads 30a and 30b are arranged in such a manner in the deployed state, the wearer can hold the part on the side of the first end 22 with one hand while the distal end is exposed by the other hand. The breast milk pads 30a and 30b can be easily pulled out of the coverings 50a and 50b by gripping a part of the edge 64. In addition, when the pinching portion of the breast milk pad 30a and the pinching portion of the breast milk pad 30b are alternately staggered in the longitudinal direction, it is necessary to rehold one hand and remove the breast milk pad 30b after removing the breast milk pad 30a. Although it is troublesome, since the orientation of the distal edge 64 of the breast milk pads 30a and 30b is the same in the longitudinal direction, the operator is particularly aware of the same operation as taking out the breast milk pad 30a without changing the packaging sheet 20. The breast milk pad 30b can be taken out of the package 10 without.

  As described above, since the pad folding line 35 is biased toward the second edge 23 with respect to the longitudinal center line P, the outer peripheral edge of the first region 61 is the first peripheral edge of the second region 62 rather than the outer peripheral edge thereof. It extends to the end 22 side. Further, the end edge 61 a of the outer peripheral edge portion of the first area 61 is located closer to the first end edge 22 than the end edge 62 a of the outer peripheral edge portion of the second area 62. In the case of a wearer who has recently given birth, there is a risk that the finger may feel firmness or pain when holding firmly, but the distal edge 64 has a step-like shape. The thin portion consisting only of the outer peripheral portion serves as a gripping portion, and the first breast milk pad can be pulled out with a relatively weak force.

  In the breast milk pads 30a and 30b, the edge 62a of the outer peripheral edge of the second region 62 is located closer to the second edge 23 than the edge 43a of the absorber 43 in the first region 61. In such a case, the user can easily hold the holding portion because the entire outer peripheral flap of the first area 61 is a relatively thin holding portion.

  Referring to FIG. 7, for example, when an infant cries at night and sucks at night, when replacing the breast milk pads 30 a and 30 b after lactation, the package 10 is unfolded by the sheet folding line 18 before the packaging. There is a case where the breast milk pads 30a and 30b are removed with the packaging sheet 20 held by one hand 8 and hanging down without placing the body 10 on the table or knee.

  In such a case, the first region 61 of the breast milk pad 30a is separated from the sheet main body 21 by its own weight and is in a state of hanging down while being supported by the covering portion 50a. While firmly held, it is easy to hold a part of the distal edge 64 of the breast milk pad 30a with the other hand 9, and it can be pulled downward as it is pulled off from the sheet body 21. At this time, since both side fixing portions 51 and 52 of the covering portion 50a are peeled off and the peeling strength of the fixing portion 16b is higher than that of the fixing portion 44, the fixing portion 44 is released. 61 separates from the separator 46. The separator 46 remains in the packaging sheet 20 via the fixing portion 16 b. Therefore, the wearer removes the breast milk pad 30 a and immediately via the fastening area 44, the inner surface of the underwear such as a bra or the like. Can be affixed to

  Also, as in the case of the breast milk pad 30a, the breast milk pad 30b can be easily removed by the same operation as the breast milk pad 30a since a part of the distal edge 64 is exposed toward the first edge 22 side. Can. Thus, after the packaging body 10 is deployed, the breast milk pads 30a and 30b can be smoothly removed in the same manner without being aware of the operation procedure in the same manner while being held, so that comparison at night can be made. It is not necessary to move or light the room from the dark room to the other room in order to replace the breast milk pads 30a, 30b, and it does not disturb the baby's sleep at the time of replacement.

  This series of operations is the same as when taking out the sanitary napkin from the package of the sanitary napkin, and the woman who has just experienced the first pregnancy / birth and who is not used to handling the breast milk pad. Even in such a case, the operation can be smoothly performed without resistance.

  In the package 10, the breast milk pads 30a and 30b are respectively covered with the covering portions 50a and 50b, but as long as they are fastened to the inner surface of the sheet main body 21 in a bent state, the breast milk pads 30a , 30b may be covered by the covering portions 50a, 50b. In such a case, for example, during the removal operation of the breast milk pad 30a by suspending the packaging sheet 20, the breast milk pad 30b to be removed later is inadvertently removed by its own weight and the fastening area 44 touches a futon or the like. In order to prevent this, it is preferable that the breast milk pad 30b be coated on the covering portion 50b.

  Although not shown, in at least one of the breast milk pads 30 a and 30 b, the absorber 43 may be colored in a color different from that of the peripheral flaps 47. In such a case, the wearer can obtain a sense of security against leakage of breast milk at the time of wearing by visually recognizing the region where the absorber 43 is present, and also grasps the position of the breast milk pads 30a and 30b and the peripheral flap 47 You can grasp the department instantly. The colored portion of the absorber 43 is preferably viewed through the outer surface sheet 42 and / or the separator and is preferably viewed through the covering portions 50a and 50b. For the color to be colored in the absorber 43, since the sheet material used for the outer peripheral flap 47 is usually white, colors different from white such as red, blue and green can be suitably used.

<Modification 1>
FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view similar to FIG. 4 in an example of a variation of the package 10 according to the present invention.

  In the present variation, the edge 62 a of the outer peripheral edge portion of the second area 62 of the breast milk pad 30 a is located closer to the first end 22 than the edge 43 a of the absorber 43 in the first area 61. In this modification, the end 43 b of the absorber 43 in the second area 62 is covered with the covering portion 50 a, and the end 43 a of the absorber 43 in the first area 61 is covered with the second area 62. Thus, in the unfolded state of the package 10, the absorber 43 is not exposed to the outside. Therefore, when using and replacing only one of the breast milk pads 30a and 30b and storing the other breast milk pads 30a and 30b, the absorbent body 43 can be hygienically stored without being contaminated.
