(1) Outline of Embodiments At least the following matters will be made clear by the present specification and the description of the accompanying drawings.
An absorbent article according to one aspect is an absorbent article for sports having a front-rear direction and a width direction orthogonal to each other, an absorbent core, and a skin sheet located on the skin surface side of the absorbent core, The absorbent article has a functional display pattern that is visible from the skin side of the absorbent article and is independent of the surroundings, and the functional display pattern intersects the first line and the first line at an intersection. It has an X shape having two lines and has extending portions extending in all directions from the intersection.

When the wearer visually recognizes the X-shaped function display pattern, the wearer can think of sports, and it becomes easy to recognize that the absorbent article is for sports. Specifically, the X-shaped design has an intersecting portion and an extending portion extending from the intersecting portion. The extending portion extends from the intersection in four different directions. The portion sandwiched by the adjacent extending portions is less noticeable than the extending portions, and is easily recognized as a recessed shape with respect to the extending portions. Then, the extending portion is easily recognized as a shape that bulges with respect to the portion sandwiched by the extending portions. Generally, the muscle of the body is composed of a combination of a bulging convex portion and a concave portion that is recessed with respect to the convex portion, and a convex portion along a three-dimensional body such as the abdominal muscle and pectoral muscle. Form an X shape. By providing the X-shaped functional display pattern, the wearer's sensation can be affected, and the X-shaped convex portion and the concave portion that is recessed with respect to the convex portion make the wearer think of sports. Therefore, the wearer can easily understand that the absorbent article for sports has a function suitable for sports.

According to a preferred aspect, the extending portion may have a curved curved portion.

The muscles of the body are curved. According to this aspect, the curved portion of the extending portion allows the wearer to more imagine the muscles and reminds him of sports.

According to a preferred aspect, the extension part has a first extension part and a second extension part that are adjacent to each other in the first direction, and the first extension part and the second extension part are the first extension part. It may have a curved shape that bulges outward in the direction.

The first extending portion and the second extending portion have a curved shape that bulges outward in the direction away from each other. The region sandwiched by the first extending portion and the second extending portion is not a triangular shape sandwiched by straight lines but a curved shape, and can simulate the swelling shape of muscles of the body. Therefore, it is possible to make the wearer imagine the muscles and to think of sports.

According to a preferred aspect, the first extending portion and the second extending portion each have an inner edge continuous with the intersection, and an outer edge opposite to the intersection, and The width of the first extending portion and the width of the second extending portion may decrease from the inner end edge toward the outer end edge.

The muscles of the body are raised in a curved shape, and gradually dent from the bulge of the muscle toward the line where the body is depressed. By making the width of the extending portion shorter toward the outer edge, it is possible to show a line in which the body is dented due to the bulge of the muscles, and the wearer can imagine the muscles and recall the sport.

According to a preferred aspect, a bending base point portion serving as a deformation base point of the absorbent article is provided, and the bending base point portion may have a display bending base point portion that constitutes the functional display pattern. ..

By deforming the absorbent article with the display bending base point as a base point, the functional display design and its surroundings are three-dimensionally deformed by deforming such that the periphery expands with the function display design as a base point. This allows the wearer to have an image of muscles and motion, which makes it more reminiscent of sports. Further, a force in a twisting direction may be applied due to a complicated movement caused by sports. At this time, the twist can be absorbed by the deformation of the X-shaped base point, and the force can be released in all directions along the extending portion. Therefore, it is difficult for the deformation to occur and it is possible to enhance the durability against the intense movement due to sports.

According to a preferred aspect, the display bending base point portion may be configured by a compressed portion obtained by compressing at least the absorbent core in the thickness direction.

The display bending base point portion including the compressed portion has a rigidity difference and a thickness difference as compared with the surroundings, and is likely to be a deformation base point. In addition, the compressed part has a higher density than the surroundings, and is easy to draw in body fluid. Therefore, by absorbing the body fluid by the compression unit, the compression unit becomes more noticeable by the body fluid, and the function of the function display pattern is more easily exhibited.

According to a preferred aspect, the extending portion includes a first extending portion and a second extending portion that are adjacent to each other in the width direction, and a third extending portion and a fourth extending portion that are adjacent to each other in the width direction. And the intersection is a second intersection where the first extension and the third extension intersect with each other, and the second extension and the fourth extension intersect with each other. An intersection portion may be included, and the functional display pattern may include a connection portion that connects the first intersection portion and the second intersection portion and that extends in the width direction.

When the absorbent article is sandwiched by the legs when worn, a force is applied to the absorbent article from the outer side to the inner side in the width direction. Since the first intersecting portion and the second intersecting portion are connected by the connecting portion, the connecting portion can oppose the inward force in the width direction, so that the absorbent article can be prevented from entering the width and twisting.

According to a preferred aspect, the width of the connecting portion may be equal to or larger than the width of the extending portion.

According to this aspect, the connecting portions can be opposed by a force directed inward in the width direction, and the absorbent article can be prevented from entering the width and twisting.

According to a preferred aspect, the wearer has a central region facing the excretory opening of the wearer, and at least a part of the display folding base point portion is located rearward of the center of the central region in the front-rear direction. Good.

When the buttocks move due to sports and a twisting force is generated, the force is most likely to be applied near the perineum. The bending base point portion is deformed by the force applied to the perineal portion, so that it is possible to enhance the followability to the body during sports.

According to a preferred aspect, the folding base point portion includes a pair of front and rear folding base point portions extending in the front-rear direction with the center in the width direction of the absorbent article being sandwiched in the central region. The folding base point portion may straddle the center of the central region in the front-rear direction, and may be located outside the display folding base point portion in the width direction.

A force from the outer side to the inner side in the width direction is easily applied to the center of the central region in the front-rear direction. At this time, the front and rear folding base points are deformed as base points, and the region sandwiched by the front and rear folding base points is deformed so as to bulge toward the wearer. At this time, if a force in the twisting direction due to the movement of the buttocks etc. is applied to the back side area located behind the center area, the force is applied by the display bending base point located behind the center in the front-back direction of the center area. Can be absorbed and the deformation that swells to the wearer can be maintained by the front and rear folding base points. Therefore, the fit to the excretory opening can be improved.

According to a preferred embodiment, the absorbent article has a central area facing the wearer's excretion opening and a rear side area located rearward of the central area, and the outer edge of the absorbent article in the rear side area. Is provided with a plurality of convex portions that bulge outward in a plan view and concave portions that are located between the convex portions, and the concave portions are spaced apart in the width direction on the rear side of the intersecting portion. And may be arranged in a pair.

When the wearer makes a relatively large motion, a force to twist the absorbent article is exerted particularly on the rear region. At this time, the twist in the rear region is absorbed by the pair of recesses and the display bending base point portion, and the twist is less likely to be transmitted to the center of the central region in the front-rear direction. Therefore, it is possible to secure the fit property with respect to the excretory mouth in the central region and maintain the conformability to the body in the rear region.

According to a preferred aspect, a joint portion for joining the absorbent article to the wearing article is provided, and the joint portion may be arranged in a region overlapping with each of the extension portions extending in the four directions.

According to this aspect, since each of the extending portions extending in all directions overlaps the joint portion, each of the extending portions is joined to the wearing article to increase the rigidity and more easily function as the deformation base point. Therefore, the twist can be absorbed by the deformation of the X-shaped base point, and the force can be released in all directions along the extending portion. Therefore, it is difficult for the deformation to occur and it is possible to enhance the durability against the intense movement due to sports.

According to a preferred embodiment, the absorbent article has a central area facing the wearer's excretion opening and a rear side area located rearward of the central area, and the outer edge of the absorbent article in the rear side area. Is provided with a plurality of convex portions that bulge outward in plan view and a concave portion that is located between the convex portions, and a plurality of extending portions that respectively extend from the extending portions along the extending portions. One extended virtual line of the projected virtual lines may reach the convex portion.

The display folding base point portion formed of the compressed portion has a high density and easily diffuses the body fluid along the extension virtual line due to the capillary phenomenon. By the extension virtual line reaching the convex portion of the outer edge of the absorbent article, the distance from the extension portion to the outer end of the absorbent article becomes longer, and the leakage of body fluid diffused by the extension portion can be suppressed. After use, the user can grasp that the body fluid can be diffused by the extension part and that the body fluid can be absorbed in a wide range, and that the leakage is suppressed by the swelling in the diffusion direction of the body fluid. You can get a feeling.

According to a preferred aspect, a first reaching point at which a first extending virtual line of the plurality of extending virtual lines reaches an outer edge of the absorbent article, and a second extending point of the plurality of extending virtual lines. The recess may be provided between the second reaching point where the virtual imaginary line reaches the outer edge of the absorbent article.

It is possible to give the wearer the image of losing power in all directions from the functional display pattern along the extended virtual line, and to give the wearer the impression that it does not easily twist during sports. In addition, since the outer edge of the absorbent article has a recess, the recess may be easily deformed toward the X-shaped base point. However, the force is released in all directions from the function display pattern, and since there is a convex portion at the tip, the force can be released to the outer edge. Therefore, it is difficult for the deformation to occur and it is possible to enhance the durability against the intense movement due to sports.

The function display pattern of the present embodiment is configured by the display bending base point portion 70. However, the function display pattern in another form may not be configured by the bent base point portion and may be a design such as printing. For example, the functional display pattern may be shown by printing on the skin sheet or the absorbent core.

(4) Detailed Configuration of Display Bending Base Point Part and Modification when Wearing Next, the display bending base point part 70 that constitutes the functional display pattern 50 will be described in detail. The display folding base point portion 70 constitutes the function display pattern 50. The display folding base point portion 70 has any structure such as an intersection portion 53, an extension portion 54, a connecting portion 55, and the like included in the function display pattern 50. When the absorbent article 1 is deformed with the display folding base point portion 70 as a base point, the functional display pattern 50 and its surroundings are three-dimensionally deformed by, for example, being deformed so that the periphery is expanded with the function display pattern 50 as a base point. .. The wearer can have an image of muscles as well as motion, which makes it more reminiscent of sports.

FIG. 6 is a perspective view schematically showing a state in which the absorbent article is attached to underwear S as a wearing article. Forces in the twisting direction may be applied due to complex movements caused by sports. At this time, the twist can be absorbed by the X-shaped display bending base point portion 70, and the force can be released in all directions along the extension portion 54. Therefore, it is difficult for the deformation to occur and it is possible to enhance the durability against the intense movement due to sports. Further, since the display folding base point portion 70 has an X shape, the base points of deformation are not concentrated at one point, but are easily dispersed. Therefore, it is difficult for the deformation to occur and it is possible to enhance the durability against the intense movement due to sports. In particular, since the connecting portion 55 that connects the intersecting portions 53 to each other is provided, the force can be more easily dispersed, and the durability against intense movement due to sports can be improved.

The display folding base point portion 70 may be configured by the display pressing portion 81. The display compression unit 81 has a difference in rigidity and a difference in thickness as compared with the surroundings, and is likely to serve as a deformation starting point. In addition, the display squeezing unit 81 has a higher density than the surroundings, and easily draws in body fluid. Therefore, by absorbing the bodily fluid by the display squeezing unit 81, the display squeezing unit 81 becomes more conspicuous by the bodily fluid, and the function of the function display pattern 50 is more easily exhibited.

The extending portion 54 of the display bending base point portion 70 may have a curved line portion. The deformation centered on the intersection portion 53 is not linearly transmitted from the inner end edge to the outer end edge, but is transmitted while being dispersed in a curved shape. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the twist due to the local deformation, prevent the deformation from occurring, and improve the durability against the intense movement in sports. In addition, the width of the extending portion may decrease from the inner edge toward the outer edge. According to this structure, the deformation centering on the intersection 53 is transmitted from the inner edge toward the outer edge while decreasing. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the twist due to the local deformation, prevent the deformation from occurring, and improve the durability against the intense movement in sports.

Further, the display folding base point portion 70 may have a connecting portion 55 extending in the width direction. When the absorbent article 1 is sandwiched by the legs when worn, a force is applied to the absorbent article 1 from the outer side to the inner side in the width direction W. Since the first intersecting portion 531 and the second intersecting portion 532 are coupled by the coupling portion 55, the coupling portion 55 can oppose the inward force in the width direction W and prevent the absorbent article 1 from entering the width and twisting. You can

The width W55 of the connecting portion 55 may be equal to or larger than the width (W541, W542, W543, W544) of the extending portion. The width W55 of the connecting portion 55 may be the same as the width of the extending portion 54 or may be longer than the width of the extending portion 54. The connecting portions 55 can face each other by an inward force in the width direction W, so that the absorbent article can be prevented from entering the width and twisting.

At least a part of the display folding base point portion 70 may be located on the rear side of the central center line S3CL. The rear display folding base point portion R70 of the present embodiment is located rearward of the central center line S3CL. When the buttocks move due to sports and a twisting force is generated, the force is most likely to be applied near the perineum. The display bending base point portion is deformed by the force applied to the perineal portion, so that it is possible to enhance the followability to the body during sports.

A front-back folding base point portion 75 may be provided outside the display folding base point portion 70 in the width direction. A force from the outer side to the inner side in the width direction W is likely to be applied to the central center line S3CL. At this time, the front-rear folding base point portion 75 is deformed with respect to the base point, and the region sandwiched by the front-rear folding base point portion 75 is deformed so as to bulge toward the wearer. At this time, when a force in a twisting direction due to the movement of the buttocks is applied to the rear side area S2 located on the rear side of the central area S3, the force is applied by the display bending base point portion 70 located on the rear side of the central center line S3CL. Can be absorbed, and the deformation that swells to the wearer can be maintained by the front and rear bending base points 75. Therefore, the fit to the excretory opening can be improved.

The main body joint portion 61 may be provided in a region overlapping each of the four extending portions 54 of the display folding base point portion 70. Since each of the extending portions 54 extending in all directions overlaps with the main body joint portion 61, each of the extending portions 54 is joined to the wearing article to increase the rigidity, and it becomes easier to function as a deformation starting point. Therefore, the twist can be absorbed by the deformation of the X-shaped base point, and the force can be released in all directions along the extending portion. Therefore, it is difficult for the deformation to occur and it is possible to enhance the durability against the intense movement due to sports.

More preferably, the main body joint portions 61 may be arranged on both outer sides of the display folding base point portion 70 in the width direction W. The main body joint portion located on the outer side in the width direction with respect to the display folding base point portion 70 makes it easy to follow the wearing article by understanding the entire width direction of the display folding base point portion 70. Therefore, it is easier to obtain the effect of absorbing the twist due to the deformation of the X-shaped base point and the effect of releasing the force along the extending portion 54. Therefore, it is difficult for the deformation to occur and it is possible to enhance the durability against the intense movement due to sports.

A recess may be provided on the rear side of the intersection of the display folding base points 70. Specifically, the first concave portion 95 and the second concave portion 96 are provided on the rear side of the intersection 53 of the front display folding base point portion F70 and on the rear side of the intersection portion 53 of the rear display folding base point portion R70. It is provided. When the wearer makes a relatively large motion, a force to twist the absorbent article is exerted particularly on the rear region. At this time, the twist of the rear side region is absorbed by the pair of recesses and the display bending base point portion 70, and the twist is less likely to be transmitted to the central center line S3CL. Therefore, it is possible to secure the fit property with respect to the excretory opening in the central region S3 and to maintain the conformability to the body in the rear region.

Next, the absorbent article according to the modified example will be described. FIG. 7 is a plan view of the absorbent article 1X according to the modification viewed from the skin surface. The difference between the absorbent article according to the modification and the absorbent article according to the embodiment is that the absorbent article in the rear side region S2 is It is the shape of the outer edge. Other configurations are the same as those in the embodiment, and the same reference numerals are used and the description thereof is omitted.

The outer edge of the absorbent article is provided with a plurality of convex portions that bulge outward in a plan view and concave portions that are located between the convex portions and that are recessed inward in a plan view. The convex portion and the concave portion may be provided in a pair that are line-symmetric with respect to the article width centerline 1WC. The convex portion and the concave portion may be provided at least in the rear side area S2. The recesses are a first recess 95 located at the boundary between the central region S3 and the rear region S2, a second recess 96 located at the center of the rear region S2 in the front-rear direction, a second recess and the article width center line 1WC. And a third recess 97 located between the two. The convex portions are the first convex portion 91 located between the first concave portion 95 and the second concave portion 96, the second convex portion 92 located between the second concave portion 96 and the third concave portion 97, and the article width center line. The 3rd convex part 93 arrange|positioned straddling 1WC may be included. The first convex portion 91 bulges outward in the width direction, the second convex portion 92 bulges outward in the width direction and rearward, and the third convex portion 93 bulges rearward. The first recess 95 and the second recess 96 are recessed inward in the width direction, and the third recess 97 is recessed rearward.

One extension virtual line of the plurality of extension virtual lines FL5 extending from the extension portion along the extension portion may reach the convex portion. The extension virtual line FL5 is a line obtained by extending the second virtual line FL2 that connects the inner edge and the outer edge of each extension. The display folding base point portion 70 including the display squeezing portion 81 has a high density and easily diffuses body fluid along the extended virtual line due to the capillary phenomenon. The extension virtual line FL5 reaches the convex portion of the outer edge of the absorbent article, so that the distance from the extension portion to the outer end of the absorbent article becomes longer, and the leakage of body fluid diffused by the extension portion can be suppressed. After use, the user can grasp that the body fluid can be diffused by the extension part and that the body fluid can be absorbed in a wide range, and that the leakage is suppressed by the swelling of the body fluid in the diffusion direction. You can get a feeling.

Of the plurality of extension virtual lines FL5, the first extension virtual line FL51 reaches the outer edge of the absorbent article, and the second extension virtual line FL52 of the plurality of extension virtual lines FL5 is absorbed. A recess may be provided between the second reaching point P2 that reaches the outer edge of the sex article. Specifically, the first extension virtual line FL51 of the third extension portion 543 of the rear display bent base point portion R70 reaches the second convex portion 92 at the first arrival point P1. The second extending virtual line FL52 of the fourth extending portion 544 of the rear display folding base point portion R70 reaches the second convex portion 92 at the second reaching point P2. The third convex portion 93 is arranged between the first reaching point P1 and the second reaching point P2. It is possible to give the wearer an image of losing power in all directions from the function display pattern 50 along the extension virtual line FL5, and it is possible to give an impression that the wearer hardly twists during sports. In addition, since the outer edge of the absorbent article has a recess, the recess may be easily deformed toward the X-shaped base point. However, the force is released in all directions from the function display pattern, and since there is a convex portion at the tip, the force can be released to the outer edge. Therefore, it is difficult for the deformation to occur and it is possible to enhance the durability against the intense movement due to sports.
