Description

本発明は、生理用ナプキン、パンティライナー(おりものシート)、失禁パッド等の吸収性物品に関する。   The present invention relates to an absorbent article such as a sanitary napkin, a panty liner (cage sheet), and an incontinence pad.

生理用ナプキン等の吸収性物品において、吸収量増加やフィット性改善等による防漏性の向上のため、吸収体の中央部(股下部)を、他の部分よりも厚くしたり、肌当接面側に突出させることが知られている。   In absorbent articles such as sanitary napkins, the center of the absorbent body (in the crotch) is made thicker than other parts, or the skin contacts, in order to improve leakage resistance by increasing absorption or improving fit It is known to project to the surface side.

例えば、特許文献1には、下部吸収材と、前端部域から中央部域の幅方向両端部を内方へ折込み、この折込み部を該下部吸収材の幅よりも狭く形成した上部吸収材とから形成される吸収体を具備し、幅方向中央部域を厚層に且つ後端部域を薄層に形成した生理用ナプキンが提案されている。
尚、特許文献1及び2には、吸収性物品の長手方向両側部に溝や線状の模様を形成した吸収性物品が記載されている。
For example, Patent Document 1 includes a lower absorbent material, and an upper absorbent material formed by folding inward both ends in the width direction from the front end region to the central region, and forming the folded portion narrower than the width of the lower absorbent material. There has been proposed a sanitary napkin comprising an absorbent body formed from the above, in which a central region in the width direction is formed in a thick layer and a rear end region is formed in a thin layer.
Patent Documents 1 and 2 describe absorbent articles in which grooves and linear patterns are formed on both sides in the longitudinal direction of the absorbent article.

特許文献1に開示されているような、従来のナプキンはその肌当接面側に、ナプキンの着用時において、前記中央部と、厚層には形成されていない部分との境界部分に、吸収体の剛性差に起因する皺が入りやすく、このため、該境界部分及びその近傍に位置するナプキンの肌当接面と、着用者の肌との間に隙間が形成されやすく、該隙間に経血等の排泄物が滞留し、滞留した排泄物が、就寝時等において、外部に漏れ出すおそれがある。また、皺や、着用者との間の隙間によって装着感が低下することもある。   As disclosed in Patent Document 1, the conventional napkin absorbs the skin contact surface side at the boundary between the central portion and the portion not formed in the thick layer when the napkin is worn. It is easy for wrinkles due to body rigidity differences to occur, and therefore, a gap is easily formed between the skin contact surface of the napkin located in the boundary portion and the vicinity thereof, and the skin of the wearer. There is a risk that excreta such as blood will stay and the excreta that stays may leak to the outside at bedtime or the like. Moreover, a feeling of wearing may be lowered by a gap between the bag and the wearer.

従って、本発明の目的は、着用時に、吸収体の多層部又は厚層部と他の部分との剛性差に起因する皺が生じにくく、着用者の身体形状に対するフィット性及び防漏性に優れた吸収性物品を提供することにある。   Therefore, the object of the present invention is to prevent wrinkles due to the difference in rigidity between the multilayer portion or the thick layer portion of the absorbent body and other portions during wearing, and is excellent in fit and leakage resistance to the wearer's body shape. It is to provide an absorbent article.

本発明は、着用時の前後方向と同方向に長い吸収体を具備する吸収性物品において、前記吸収体は、長手方向の一部に、他の部分より層数が多い多層部又は他の部分よりも厚い厚層部を有しており、前記吸収体を、前記多層部又は前記厚層部の後端位置において幅方向に横切る仮想直線を想定したときに、前記吸収体の両側部それぞれに、前記仮想直線の前後に亘り且つ該仮想直線から後方に15mm以上延びる溝が形成されており、前記吸収性物品を前方から後方に向かって見たときに、該吸収体の両側部に形成された溝の本数が、前記仮想直線と、該仮想直線から15mm後方の位置との間で増加していないことを特徴とする吸収性物品を提供することにより前記目的を達成したものである。   The present invention relates to an absorbent article comprising an absorbent body that is long in the same direction as the front-rear direction when worn, wherein the absorbent body is a multilayer part or other part having a larger number of layers than other parts in a part of the longitudinal direction. A thicker layer part thicker than the absorber, assuming an imaginary straight line that crosses the absorber in the width direction at the rear end position of the multilayer part or the thick layer part. In addition, a groove extending 15 mm or more behind the imaginary straight line and extending rearward and rearward from the imaginary straight line is formed, and formed on both sides of the absorbent body when the absorbent article is viewed from the front to the rear. The object is achieved by providing an absorbent article characterized in that the number of grooves is not increased between the virtual straight line and a position 15 mm behind the virtual straight line.

本発明の吸収性物品は、着用時に、吸収体の多層部又は厚層部と他の部分との剛性差に起因する皺が生じにくく、着用者の身体形状に対するフィット性及び防漏性に優れている。   The absorbent article of the present invention is less likely to cause wrinkles due to a difference in rigidity between the multilayer portion or thick layer portion of the absorbent body and other portions when worn, and is excellent in fit and leakage resistance to the wearer's body shape. ing.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on a preferred embodiment thereof with reference to the drawings.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , the sanitary napkin 1 of the present embodiment includes a liquid-permeable top sheet 2, a liquid-impermeable back sheet 3, and a liquid interposed between the two sheets 2 and 3. A retaining absorber 4 is provided. Further, a pair of side sheets 5 and 5 are provided on both sides of the absorbent article (napkin) in the longitudinal direction on the skin contact surface side of the napkin 1 over the substantially entire length in the longitudinal direction. It is arranged along the longitudinal direction. In this specification, the “skin contact surface side” is the side (surface) arranged toward the wearer's skin side during wearing, out of both sides (surfaces) of each member. In addition, the term “non-skin contact surface side” is sometimes used below, and this is arranged on both sides (surfaces) of each member toward the side opposite to the wearer's skin side when worn. The side (surface) to be used.

生理用ナプキン1は、着用時に着用者の排泄部に対向する排泄部対向部Aと、該排泄部対向部Aの前後に延在する前方部B及び後方部Cとを有する。生理用ナプキン1の着用時には、前方部Bが着用者の前(腹)側に、後方部Cが着用者の後(背)側にそれぞれ配される。   The sanitary napkin 1 has an excretion part facing part A that faces the excretion part of the wearer when worn, and a front part B and a rear part C that extend before and after the excretion part facing part A. When the sanitary napkin 1 is worn, the front part B is arranged on the front (abdomen) side of the wearer and the rear part C is arranged on the rear (back) side of the wearer.

表面シート2は、図1及び図2に示すように、吸収体4の肌当接面側の全域を被覆している。裏面シート3は、吸収体4の非肌当接面側の全域を被覆し、該吸収体4のナプキン幅方向両側縁それぞれから外方に延出した部分を有し、その延出部分が、サイドシート5と共に、ナプキン1の幅方向両側部それぞれにサイドフラップ6を形成している。サイドフラップ6は、排泄部対向部A及び後方部Cのそれぞれにおいて大きく外方に延出し、一対のウイング部61,61及び一対の後部フラップ62,62を形成している。後部フラップ62は、着用時にショーツ等の着衣の内面(肌対向面)上に配される。
裏面シート3の幅方向中央部及び一対の該ウイング部61,61の非肌当接面側には、それぞれ粘着剤が塗布されて、ナプキン1をショーツ等に固定するための固定部(図示せず)が形成されている。
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the top sheet 2 covers the entire region of the absorbent body 4 on the skin contact surface side. The back sheet 3 covers the entire area of the absorbent body 4 on the non-skin contact surface side, and has portions extending outward from both side edges of the absorbent body 4 in the napkin width direction. Side flaps 6 are formed on both side portions in the width direction of the napkin 1 together with the side sheets 5. The side flaps 6 largely extend outward in each of the excretory part facing part A and the rear part C to form a pair of wing parts 61 and 61 and a pair of rear flaps 62 and 62. The rear flap 62 is disposed on the inner surface (skin facing surface) of clothing such as shorts when worn.
Adhesives are respectively applied to the widthwise center portion of the back sheet 3 and the non-skin contact surface side of the pair of wing portions 61, 61 to fix the napkin 1 to shorts or the like (not shown). ) Is formed.

本実施形態のナプキン1における吸収体4は、図1に示すように、着用時の前後方向と同方向に長い形状を有しており、その長手方向の一部に、他の部分より層数が多い多層部Mを有している。図1中の点線の斜線部が、多層部Mである。多層部Mは、吸収体4の幅方向においても、吸収体の一部(具体的には、中央部)に形成されている。
吸収体4は、図1及び図2に示すように、前方部Bから後方部Cに亘って配された主吸収体41と、排泄部対向部A付近のみに配された補助吸収体42とから構成されている。
As shown in FIG. 1, the absorbent body 4 in the napkin 1 of the present embodiment has a shape that is long in the same direction as the front-rear direction at the time of wearing. The multi-layered part M is often included. A hatched portion with dotted lines in FIG. The multilayer part M is also formed in a part (specifically, the central part) of the absorber also in the width direction of the absorber 4.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the absorbent body 4 includes a main absorbent body 41 disposed from the front part B to the rear part C, and an auxiliary absorbent body 42 disposed only in the vicinity of the excretory part facing part A. It is composed of

主吸収体41は、図2に示すように、下部吸収体411と、該下部吸収体411の肌当接面側に配された上部吸収体412とから構成されている。下部吸収体411及び上部吸収体412は、何れも、実質的に縦長の矩形状の平面視形状をなしている。   As shown in FIG. 2, the main absorbent body 41 is composed of a lower absorbent body 411 and an upper absorbent body 412 disposed on the skin contact surface side of the lower absorbent body 411. Each of the lower absorbent body 411 and the upper absorbent body 412 has a substantially vertically long rectangular plan view shape.

補助吸収体42は、図1及び図2に示すように、主吸収体41より小型の吸収体で、縦長に形成されており、排泄部対向部Aにおける下部吸収体411と上部吸収体412との間に配されている。
主吸収体41の一部に補助吸収体42を配することで、吸収体4の一部の吸収容量を容易且つ効率的に増大させることができる。
また、補助吸収体42が、下部吸収体411と上部吸収体412との間に挟まれていると、補助吸収体42が介在している部分とそれより外側の部分との境目付近に段差が大きくならず、厚み方向における重心が略中心付近となるため、ヨレが生じにくくなる。
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the auxiliary absorbent body 42 is a smaller absorbent body than the main absorbent body 41 and is formed in a vertically long shape. The lower absorbent body 411 and the upper absorbent body 412 in the excretory part facing part A It is arranged between.
By arranging the auxiliary absorber 42 in a part of the main absorber 41, the absorption capacity of a part of the absorber 4 can be increased easily and efficiently.
Further, when the auxiliary absorber 42 is sandwiched between the lower absorber 411 and the upper absorber 412, there is a step near the boundary between the portion where the auxiliary absorber 42 is interposed and the portion outside it. It does not increase and the center of gravity in the thickness direction is approximately near the center, so that twisting is less likely to occur.

補助吸収体42は、図2に示すように、一枚の吸収性シートを折り畳んで形成されている。具体的には、平面視長方形ないし正方形状の吸収性シートにおける、ナプキンの長手方向と一致する方向の両側部を、裏面シート3側に折り返し、その折り返した部分の端縁同士を吸収性シートの幅方向中央部で重ね合わせてある。   As shown in FIG. 2, the auxiliary absorbent body 42 is formed by folding a single absorbent sheet. Specifically, in the absorbent sheet having a rectangular or square shape in a plan view, both side portions in a direction that coincides with the longitudinal direction of the napkin are folded back to the back sheet 3 side, and the edges of the folded portions of the absorbent sheet are joined together. Overlaid at the center in the width direction.

この吸収体4においては、下部吸収体411と上部吸収体412との間に補助吸収体42が介在していない部位が2層構造となっているのに対して、下部吸収体411と上部吸収体412との間に補助吸収体42が介在する部位が4層構造となっており、補助吸収体42が介在する該部位が、多層部Mとなっている。尚、下部吸収体411と上部吸収体412とは、補助吸収体42が介在していない部位において互いに接合されていてもいなくても良く、補助吸収体42が介在する部位(多層部)においても、下部吸収体411と補助吸収体42との間及び上部吸収体412と補助吸収体42との間はそれぞれ接合されていてもされていなくても良い。   In this absorber 4, the portion where the auxiliary absorber 42 is not interposed between the lower absorber 411 and the upper absorber 412 has a two-layer structure, whereas the lower absorber 411 and the upper absorber The part where the auxiliary absorber 42 is interposed between the body 412 has a four-layer structure, and the part where the auxiliary absorber 42 is interposed is the multilayer part M. The lower absorbent body 411 and the upper absorbent body 412 may or may not be joined to each other at a portion where the auxiliary absorber 42 is not interposed, and also at a portion (multilayer portion) where the auxiliary absorber 42 is interposed. The lower absorbent body 411 and the auxiliary absorbent body 42 and the upper absorbent body 412 and the auxiliary absorbent body 42 may or may not be joined to each other.

本実施形態における吸収体4においては、その長手方向の両側部それぞれに、図1及び図2に示すように、概ねナプキン1の長手方向に延びるように溝7が形成されている。長手方向の左右それぞれに概ね長手方向に延びるように形成された各溝7は、それらの前後端部において、略円弧状に形成された連結部7C,7Dを介して連結されている。連結部7C,7Dのように、概ねナプキン1の幅方向に延びる部分は、溝7や後述する溝7A,7Bの一部に含めない。概ね吸収性物品の長手方向に延びる部分と概ね吸収性物品の幅方向に延びる部分との境界は、ナプキン(吸収性物品)1の長手方向中央線CL又はその平行線に対して、接線のなす角度θが60度となる部分S(図1参照、溝外部線と内部線中間位置で接線を計測)である。各溝7は、吸収体4における層部M以外の部分に形成されている。より具体的には、溝7は、吸収体4の層部Mを挟んでその両外側に形成されている。 In the absorbent body 4 in the present embodiment, grooves 7 are formed on both side portions in the longitudinal direction so as to extend substantially in the longitudinal direction of the napkin 1 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. The grooves 7 formed so as to extend substantially in the longitudinal direction on the left and right in the longitudinal direction are connected to each other at their front and rear end portions via connecting portions 7C and 7D formed in a substantially arc shape. A portion extending in the width direction of the napkin 1 like the connecting portions 7C and 7D is not included in the groove 7 or a part of grooves 7A and 7B described later. The boundary between the portion extending in the longitudinal direction of the absorbent article and the portion extending in the width direction of the absorbent article is generally tangent to the longitudinal center line CL of the napkin (absorbent article) 1 or its parallel line. This is a portion S where the angle θ is 60 degrees (see FIG. 1, tangent is measured at the intermediate position between the groove outer line and the inner line). Each groove 7 is formed in a portion other than the multi-layer unit M in the absorbent body 4. More specifically, the grooves 7 are formed on both outer sides of the multi-layer portion M of the absorbent body 4.

吸収体4の両側部それぞれに形成された溝7は、図1及び図2に示すように、吸収体4を、多層部Mの後端位置Maにおいて幅方向に横切る仮想直線X−Xを想定したとき、それぞれ、該仮想直線X−Xの前後に亘っている。即ち、各溝7は、仮想直線X−Xを、吸収体4の前後方向に横切っている。
本実施形態における各溝7は、仮想直線X−Xを横切る箇所においては、図1及び図2に示すように、2本の溝7A,7Bとなっている。そして、それらの溝7A,7Bは、それぞれ、該仮想直線X−Xから後方に15mm以上延びている。即ち、本実施形態においては、仮想直線X−Xの前後に亘り且つ該仮想直線X−Xから後方に15mm以上延びる溝が、吸収体の両側部それぞれに、それぞれ、概ねナプキン(吸収性物品)の長手方向に延びるように複数本形成されている。尚、図1中のY―Y線は、仮想直線X−Xから15mm離間した位置に想定した第2の仮想直線である。
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the grooves 7 formed on both sides of the absorbent body 4 are assumed to be virtual straight lines XX that cross the absorbent body 4 in the width direction at the rear end position Ma of the multilayer section M. When this is done, they respectively extend before and after the virtual straight line XX. That is, each groove 7 crosses the virtual straight line XX in the front-rear direction of the absorber 4.
Each groove 7 in the present embodiment has two grooves 7A and 7B as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 at a location crossing the virtual straight line XX. And these groove | channels 7A and 7B are each extended 15 mm or more back from this virtual straight line XX. That is, in the present embodiment, grooves extending about 15 mm or more from the imaginary straight line XX to the front and rear of the imaginary straight line XX are substantially napkins (absorbent articles) on both sides of the absorbent body. A plurality of lines are formed so as to extend in the longitudinal direction. The YY line in FIG. 1 is a second virtual straight line assumed at a position 15 mm away from the virtual straight line XX.

溝7A,7Bは、多層部Mとその他の部分(特に多層部の後方に位置する部分)との剛性差に起因する皺を防止する観点から、仮想直線X−Xから後方に15〜150mm延びていることがより好ましい。同様の観点から、溝7A,7Bは、仮想直線X−Xから前方に延びる長さL1(図3参照)が、少なくとも5mmであることが好ましく、1〜10mmであることがより好ましい。   The grooves 7A and 7B extend 15 to 150 mm rearward from the virtual straight line XX from the viewpoint of preventing wrinkles due to the difference in rigidity between the multilayer portion M and other portions (particularly the portion located behind the multilayer portion). More preferably. From the same point of view, the length L1 (see FIG. 3) of the grooves 7A and 7B extending forward from the virtual straight line XX is preferably at least 5 mm, and more preferably 1 to 10 mm.

また、本ナプキン1においては、ナプキン(吸収性物品)1を前方から後方に向かって見たときに、吸収体4の両側部それぞれに、概ねナプキン1(吸収性物品)の長手方向に沿って形成された溝の本数が、仮想直線X−Xと、該仮想直線X−Xから15mm後方の位置(第2仮想直線Y―Y線の位置)との間(図1中にPで示す領域内)で増加していない。概ねナプキン1(吸収性物品)の長手方向に沿う溝は、その本数が、仮想直線X−Xより後方の全域において増大していないことが好ましい。   Moreover, in this napkin 1, when the napkin (absorbent article) 1 is viewed from the front to the rear, the both sides of the absorbent body 4 are approximately along the longitudinal direction of the napkin 1 (absorbent article). The number of grooves formed is between the virtual straight line XX and a position 15 mm behind the virtual straight line XX (the position of the second virtual straight line YY) (region indicated by P in FIG. 1) (Inside) not increased. It is preferable that the number of grooves substantially along the longitudinal direction of the napkin 1 (absorbent article) does not increase in the entire region behind the virtual straight line XX.

本実施形態のナプキン1においては、吸収体4の長手方向に一部に多層部Mを有している。このような構成は、特に高い吸収能力が必要とされる部位の吸収能力(吸収容量)を、全体の装着感を損なうことなく高めたり、あるいは、着用者の液排泄部に対するフィット性を高めたり、多層部Mの形状が安定化することによりヨレを生じにくくすることができる等の利点があるが、その反面、溝7A,7Bが設けられていない場合には、剛性の高い多層部Mと剛性が相対的に小さい他の部位との間の剛性差により、吸収体4が、多層部Mの後端Ma近傍(例えば、図1中にPで示す領域内)に、吸収体4の折れや皺が生じ易かった。
本実施形態のナプキン1によれば、上述した態様で溝7A,7Bを設けることで、吸収体4に多層部Mを設けることによる剛性差、ひいてはナプキン長手方向の剛性差を緩和でき、ナプキンの着用者に対するフィット性や防漏性を向上させることができる。
In the napkin 1 of the present embodiment, the absorbent body 4 has a multilayer portion M in part in the longitudinal direction. Such a configuration increases the absorption capacity (absorption capacity) of a site where particularly high absorption capacity is required without impairing the overall wearing feeling, or improves the fit of the wearer to the liquid excretion part. However, when the shape of the multi-layer part M is stabilized, there is an advantage that it is possible to make it difficult to generate a twist, but on the other hand, when the grooves 7A and 7B are not provided, Due to the difference in rigidity with other parts having relatively low rigidity, the absorber 4 is folded near the rear end Ma of the multilayer portion M (for example, in the region indicated by P in FIG. 1). It was easy to get a habit.
According to the napkin 1 of the present embodiment, by providing the grooves 7A and 7B in the above-described manner, the rigidity difference due to the multilayer portion M being provided in the absorbent body 4, and hence the rigidity difference in the longitudinal direction of the napkin can be alleviated. It is possible to improve fit and leakproofness for the wearer.

斯かる効果は、本実施形態のナプキン1のように、仮想直線X−Xの前後に亘り且つ該仮想直線X−Xから後方に15mm以上延びる溝が、吸収体4の両側部それぞれに複数本形成されていると一層奏されるので好ましいが、本発明における溝は、吸収性物品の両側部それぞれに一本のみ形成されたものであっても良い。   Such an effect, like the napkin 1 of the present embodiment, has a plurality of grooves extending on the front and rear of the imaginary straight line XX and extending 15 mm or more rearward from the imaginary straight line XX on both sides of the absorber 4. Although it is preferable that it is formed, it is preferable that the groove in the present invention is formed by only one groove on each side of the absorbent article.

また、本実施形態のナプキン1においては、仮想直線X−Xの前後に亘り且つ該仮想直線X−Xから後方に15mm以上延びる溝7A,7Bの内の一方の溝7Aは、図1に示すように、ナプキン(吸収性物品)1の後方に向かうにつれて、ナプキン(吸収性物品)の長手方向中央線CLに近づくように傾斜している。本発明の吸収性物品においては、複数本の溝を有する場合の全部若しくは一部の溝、又は単一本の溝を有する場合の該溝が、このような向きに傾斜していることが、吸収体4に多層部Mを設けることにより生じる剛性差をより一層緩和できることから、好ましい。
尚、傾斜する溝7Aは、仮想直線X−Xと交差する点における接線と、ナプキン(吸収性物品)の長手方向中央線CLとのなす角度θ1(図1参照)が、5〜60度であることが好ましく、15〜45度であることがより好ましい。
Moreover, in the napkin 1 of this embodiment, one groove | channel 7A of the groove | channels 7A and 7B which extend 15 mm or more behind this virtual straight line XX back and forth is shown in FIG. Thus, as it goes to the back of napkin (absorbent article) 1, it inclines so that it may approach the longitudinal direction center line CL of a napkin (absorbent article). In the absorbent article of the present invention, all or a part of the groove when having a plurality of grooves, or the groove when having a single groove is inclined in such a direction, This is preferable because the difference in rigidity caused by providing the multilayer portion M in the absorber 4 can be further reduced.
The inclined groove 7A has an angle θ1 (see FIG. 1) between a tangent line at a point intersecting the virtual straight line XX and a longitudinal center line CL of the napkin (absorbent article) of 5 to 60 degrees. It is preferable that the angle is 15 to 45 degrees.

本発明の吸収性物品は、多層部Mの後端の位置が、吸収体4の前端から後方に100mmの位置から200mmの位置までの範囲内、特に吸収体4の前端から後方に120mmの位置から170mmの位置までの範囲内にあることが、高い吸収能力及び/又はフィット性を要求される部分に経済的あるいは効率的にそのような性能を付与できる観点、及び本発明の効果がより一層顕著に奏される観点から好ましい。また、同様の観点から、上記ナプキン1のように、装着時に非肌当接面側に折り返されてショーツに固定されるウイング部を有する場合、多層部Mの後端Maの位置が、該ウイング部61の後端位置61aより前方に20mm離間した位置から該後端位置61aより後方に60mm離間した位置までの範囲内、特にウイング部61の後端位置の前方に10mm離間した位置から該後端位置61aより後方に50mm離間した位置までの範囲内にあることが好ましい。   In the absorbent article of the present invention, the position of the rear end of the multilayer part M is within the range from the position of 100 mm to the position of 200 mm behind the front end of the absorbent body 4, particularly the position of 120 mm behind the front end of the absorbent body 4. In view of being able to impart such performance economically or efficiently to a portion requiring high absorption capacity and / or fit, and the effects of the present invention are further improved.

The rigidity here is measured as follows.
Using a handometer manufactured by Daiei Kagaku Seiki Seisakusho, which conforms to the stiffness measurement method specified in JIS L1096 (General Textile Testing Method), a test piece is placed on a sample table adjusted to 30 mm between slots. The measurement site of the test piece [the central position of the multilayer portion M of the absorber (the position of the ZZ line in FIG. 1, hereinafter also referred to as the ZZ portion), the XX portion or the YY portion] is the center between the slots. So that the length of the absorber of the test piece coincides with the direction perpendicular to the slot, and the test piece is placed horizontally (not fixed to the sample stage) and 8 mm below the sample stage surface (the lowest position) ) The blade adjusted so as to descend to the maximum value indicated by the indicator (load meter) when the blade is lowered at a constant speed of 200 mm / min from above the specimen and pressed back and forth in the length direction ( cN). The measurement was performed 5 times, and the average value was calculated as the stiffness value.

In this case, it is preferable to eliminate materials other than the absorber as much as possible, but in order not to damage the absorber, a part of the surface sheet / back surface sheet or a part of the adhesive for joining the surface sheet and the back sheet adhered. It may be in a state. In addition, when the width | variety of a test piece differs, a rigidity value is converted into 75 mm width and adjusted. Further, the measurement is possible if the length is 50 mm (30 mm between slots + 10 mm at both ends) or more (no conversion is necessary).
Also, the thickness of the absorber is the same as the sample for stiffness measurement, but the absorber taken out so as not to break is used, but measured at the part that does not contain materials other than the absorber such as the topsheet, backsheet and adhesive. To do.
The measurement of thickness, using a "PEACOCK UPRIGHT DIAL GUAGE No.207" is the thickness gauge manufactured by Ozaki Seisakusho Co., measured under 2.5 g / cm 2 load. In the measurement, the average value measured for five samples was taken as the thickness.

(評価)
得られた各吸収体サンプルについて、ハンドロメータを用いて剛性を測定した。
剛性は、各吸収体サンプルについて、多層部Mの長手方向中央位置(Z−Z部分)、多層部の後端位置Ma(X−X部分)及び後端位置Maより更に15mm後方の位置(Y−Y部分)の3カ所における剛性を測定した。具体的には、Z−Z部分、X−X部分又はY−Y部分を、スロット間の中心にくるように且つ吸収体長さ方向がスロットに直交する方向と一致するようにして、上述した方法により測定した。各吸収体サンプルは、それぞれ15個以上作成し、各部の剛性値は、5個のサンプルについて同様に測定した平均値を表2に記載した。
(Evaluation)
About each obtained absorber sample, rigidity was measured using the handometer.
The rigidity of each absorber sample is determined by the longitudinal center position (Z-Z portion) of the multilayer part M, the rear end position Ma (XX part) of the multilayer part, and the position 15 mm behind the rear end position Ma (Y The rigidity was measured at three locations (-Y portion). Specifically, the method described above, with the ZZ portion, the XX portion, or the YY portion so as to be in the center between the slots and the length direction of the absorber coincide with the direction orthogonal to the slots. It was measured by. Each absorber sample was prepared in 15 pieces or more, and the rigidity values of each part are shown in Table 2 as average values measured in the same manner for 5 samples.

表2に示す結果から判るように、多層部Mの剛性値40cN(Z−Z部分)であるのに対し、多層部Mの後端位置Maにおいて吸収体4を幅方向に横切る仮想直線X−Xを想定したときに、仮想直線X−Xの前後に亘り且つ該仮想直線X−Xから後方に15mm以上延びる溝を形成することにより、多層部Mとその後方との間の剛性差を緩和できることが判る。更に、実施例4,5のように、後方に向かうに従って長手方向中央線CLに近づくように傾斜した溝を形成するか、あるいは、実施例7のように、吸収体の両側部それぞれに複数本の溝を形成することにより、そのような効果が一層奏されることが判る。   As can be seen from the results shown in Table 2, while the rigidity value of the multilayer portion M is 40 cN (Z-Z portion), an imaginary straight line X- crossing the absorber 4 in the width direction at the rear end position Ma of the multilayer portion M. When X is assumed, a difference in rigidity between the multilayer portion M and the rear thereof is mitigated by forming a groove extending 15 mm or more behind the virtual straight line XX and extending back and forth from the virtual straight line XX. I understand that I can do it. Further, as in the fourth and fifth embodiments, grooves that are inclined so as to approach the longitudinal center line CL toward the rear are formed, or a plurality of grooves are formed on both sides of the absorber as in the seventh embodiment. It can be seen that such an effect is further achieved by forming the groove.

[Evaluation of fluidity]
About the obtained napkin, the sanitary shorts (Product name: Laurier Active Guard (Cotton Feel) L size) and put it in a posture lying down on the evaluation table (the angle of the side joint line of the sanitary shorts and the evaluation table is about 25 ° inclination) and equine defibrinated blood from the crotch The liquid flowability from the injection part when 10 g of was injected was observed. Judgment criteria for liquid flow evaluation are: ◎: not staying, ○: some liquid staying, △: liquid staying and diffusing (diffusing along the ridge), x: liquid staying / diffusing, side of absorber It flowed beyond (the liquid reaches the rear flap 62).

結果を表2に示した。実施例1〜7のナプキンは中央部(多層部M)及び多層部Mの後端位置Ma付近の両方における身体へのフィット性が良好であるため、液流れ性も良好であった。これに対し、比較例1〜4のナプキンは、多層部Mの後端位置Ma付近に皺が大きく入り、この皺内に液が滞留し、滞留後、後部に流れでる結果であった。   The results are shown in Table 2. Since the napkins of Examples 1 to 7 had good fit to the body in both the central portion (multilayer portion M) and the vicinity of the rear end position Ma of the multilayer portion M, the liquid flowability was also good. On the other hand, the napkins of Comparative Examples 1 to 4 were the result that the soot entered the vicinity of the rear end position Ma of the multi-layer part M, the liquid stayed in the soot, and flowed to the rear after the stay.
