It is formed in a flat shape having a front surface portion 11 and a rear surface portion 12 opposite to the front surface portion 11.
Moreover, the bag mouth 13 (refer FIG. 3) is opened in the upper end side of the bag body 10, and the impact-absorbing pad W can be inserted / removed freely from the bag mouth 13 now.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the rear surface portion 12 of the bag body 10 is formed with a folded portion 12a (one folded portion 12a folded inside the bag) whose one end is folded toward the front surface portion 11 side.
Then, by inserting the upper end portion of the shock absorbing pad W accommodated from the bag mouth 13 (see FIG. 3) into the folded portion 12a, the shock absorbing pad W is prevented from jumping out from the bag body 10 and dropping off. It is like that.

Moreover, as shown in FIG.3 and FIG.4, in the right-and-left both-sides edge of the back surface (rear surface part 12 side) of the bag body 10, respectively, along the up-down direction (Y direction shown in FIG. 1) of the bag body 10, A band-shaped surface fastener 20 is attached.
With this configuration, the bag body 10 can be detachably attached to the paper diaper 30 via the surface fastener 20.
In addition, the hook and loop fastener 20 should just be attached to the back surface of the bag body 10, and the shape and quantity are designed suitably.

Next, the usage method of the pad cover 1 of 2nd Embodiment is demonstrated.
In the following, two pad covers 1 are prepared, and each pad cover 1 contains the shock absorbing pad W, and the pad covers are respectively placed on the left and right femoral necks of the user wearing the paper diaper 30. Although the case where 1 is attached is demonstrated, this is an example to the last.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, first, the shock absorbing pad W is inserted into the bag mouth 13 of the pad cover 1, and the shock absorbing pad W is stored in the bag. In this case, as shown in FIG. 5, the upper end portion of the stored shock absorbing pad W is inserted into the folded portion 12 a of the bag body 10.

Next, as shown in FIG. 6A, the hook and loop fastener 20 of the pad cover 1 that houses the shock absorbing pad W is directed to the paper diaper 30 worn by the user (opposite to the paper diaper 30). The surface fastener 20 is abutted and pasted.
Thereby, as shown in FIG.6 (b), the pad cover 1 which accommodated the impact-absorbing pad W is attached to the position of the left and right femoral necks of the user wearing the disposable diaper 30.
6B, when replacing the paper diaper 30 to which the pad cover 1 is attached, the pad cover 1 can be easily peeled off from the paper diaper 30 by pulling the pad cover 1 outward.

As described above, since the shock absorbing pad W can be attached to the general paper diaper 30 by using the pad cover 1 of the second embodiment, the user of the paper diaper 30 can make the same as in the first embodiment described above. The impact (for example, impact on a hip joint, a femoral neck, etc.) received when it falls can be relieved.
In addition, by using the pad cover 1 of the second embodiment, the shock absorbing pad W can be attached to an arbitrary position of the paper diaper 30, so that necessary portions can be protected according to the circumstances of the user. .

Moreover, the pad cover 1 of 2nd Embodiment has employ | adopted the structure attached to the paper diaper 30 by the surface fastener 20 so that attachment or detachment is possible.
Therefore, when replacing the paper diaper 30, the pad cover 1 containing the shock absorbing pad W can be removed from the used paper diaper 30, and then the pad cover 1 can be attached to the replaced new paper diaper 30.
That is, the pad cover 1 according to the second embodiment makes it possible to repeatedly use the shock absorbing pad W, so that the cost is reduced compared to the above-described adult paper diaper with a hip protector function.

Moreover, since the pad cover 1 of 2nd Embodiment is comprised so that attachment or detachment to the paper diaper 30 may be performed by the surface fastener 20, the attachment or detachment operation | work of the shock absorption pad W to the paper diaper 30 can be performed easily. .
For this reason, the pad guard 1 of the second embodiment is less time-consuming for the user (or caregiver) than the above-described case of “double wearing a pants-type paper diaper and an underwear-type hip protector”. It is reduced.
Further, by using the pad cover 1 according to the second embodiment, the layered state as described above does not occur, so that the user of the paper diaper is not given a “stiffness or discomfort”.

In addition, according to the second embodiment, the shock absorbing pad W is used in a state of being housed in the pad cover 1, so that the shock absorbing pad W itself can be prevented from being soiled.
Although some of the shock absorbing pads W cannot be washed, the use of the pad cover 1 of the second embodiment prevents contamination, so that the shock absorbing pad W can be used for a long period of time. Economic burden can be reduced.

As described above, by using the pad cover 1 of the second embodiment, the impact (hip joint and femoral neck of the user when the user falls) without placing a large economic burden on the user of the disposable diaper. Etc.) can be mitigated.
In addition, this invention is not limited to embodiment mentioned above, A various change is possible within the range of the summary.

For example, like the pad cover 2 shown in FIG. 7, the outer peripheral part on the lower end side may be formed in an arc shape.
