特許2999886号公報
In an absorbent article such as a disposable diaper, an elongated elastic member such as a rubber thread is bonded and fixed in a stretched state at an appropriate position to improve fit to the body. For example, in a tape-type paper diaper, a plurality of elongated elastic members are bonded and fixed between sheets on both sides in the width direction of an article so as to form a curved shape around the leg.
In this case, the portions between the elastic members in both sheets are vacant without being bonded to each other, which may lead to leakage. Therefore, the interval between the plurality of elastic members is narrowed at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the elastic members. Convergence and a method for attaching an elastic member therefor have been proposed (see Patent Document 1). More specifically, this attachment method includes a supply step of dividing a plurality of elastic members and supplying the elastic members toward a continuous web that is continuously supplied, and the elastic member supplied by the supply step. On the other hand, a swinging step of periodically swinging by a swinging mechanism with one or two webs to be a product as one cycle, and a stopper bar disposed adjacent to the swinging mechanism A stopping step of providing a stopping portion in which a plurality of elastic members are bundled and arranged in a straight line, and on the other hand, while supplying the top sheet or the back sheet, at least the elastic member of the top sheet or the back sheet should be bonded When applying the adhesive to the surface and joining the elastic member and the top sheet or back sheet with the adhesive, the elastic member is attached to the top sheet or back sheet. Is characterized in further comprising a pressing step of applying, the.
Japanese Patent No. 2999886

しかしながらこの従来技術では、弾性部材を収束することはできるが、収束部分がMD方向(ライン流れ方向)に沿った直線状にしかならず、他の任意の方向・形状にすることができなかった。特に上記従来技術のように、おむつ前後方向をMD方向として製造を行う場合、収束部分がおむつ前後方向に沿って取り付けられるため、収束部分の伸縮力を利用して胴回り方向のフィット性を高めることは不可能であった。
また、上記従来技術では、弾性部材の収束の緩急が取付パターンに支配され、揺動の緩急を任意に付けることができなかった。
そこで、本発明の主たる課題は、複数本の細長状弾性部材を収束させて取り付ける際、収束部分の方向・形状、及び収束の緩急を任意に変化できる手法を提供することにある。
However, in this prior art, the elastic member can be converged, but the convergent portion is only a straight line along the MD direction (line flow direction), and cannot be in any other direction / shape. In particular, when manufacturing with the diaper front-rear direction as the MD direction as in the above prior art, the converging part is attached along the diaper front-rear direction, so that the stretchability of the converging part is used to improve the fit in the waist direction. Was impossible.
Further, in the above-described conventional technology, the convergence of the elastic member is governed by the mounting pattern, and the swing cannot be arbitrarily controlled.
Accordingly, a main problem of the present invention is to provide a method capable of arbitrarily changing the direction and shape of the convergent portion and the convergence rate when a plurality of elongated elastic members are converged and attached.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
(How to attach the elastic member)
FIG.1 and FIG.2 shows only the principal part of the manufacturing equipment of a tape-type paper diaper. That is, in this equipment, first, the continuous belt-like liquid-impervious backsheet 1 fed out from the roll is set as the upper side, and the continuous strip-shaped exterior sheet 12 fed out from the roll is set as the lower side, and both sheets 1 and 12 are paired with the first pair. The sheet 1 is guided between the nip rolls 20, and the continuous thread-like elastic member 13 is fed between the sheets 1 and 12 on the upstream side of the first nip roll 20, and the sheets 1 and 12 are bonded to each other, thereby forming a continuous belt-shaped outer surface side sheet. 15 is formed. Reference numeral 21 denotes a coating device for the adhesive. Subsequently, the continuous belt-like liquid-permeable top sheet 2 fed out from the roll is guided onto the central portion in the CD direction of the outer surface side sheet, and both the sheets 15 and 2 are guided between the pair of second nip rolls 22. An upstream side of the second nip roll 22, the individual absorbent body 3 is sequentially fed between the sheets 15 and 2 at a predetermined interval, and the peripheral edge of the top sheet 2 and the outer surface side sheet around the absorbent body 3. 15 is bonded. Reference numeral 23 indicates a device for applying the adhesive. Further, the base part of the continuous belt-like barrier sheet 4 supplied from the roll is supplied from both sides of the CD of the top sheet to the part on the outer surface side sheet 15, and after being fixedly bonded and fixed by the third nip roll 24, the cutter 25, the constricted portions along the circumference of the legs are cut off at a predetermined interval in the MD direction by 25, and are individually cut by the cutter 26 at a predetermined interval (at a predetermined position between the absorbers) in the MD direction. An individualized disposable diaper DP is formed. Reference numeral 27 indicates an adhesive application device for bonding the barrier sheet 4.

特徴的には、図2に示すように弾性部材の送り込みに際して、弾性部材13がCD方向に揺動される。すなわち、第1ニップロール22の上流側における弾性部材送り込み経路に、CD方向に揺動される揺動部30が設けられており、この揺動部30上には、MD方向に沿う通路31がCD方向に間隔を空けて少なくとも案内対象の細長状弾性部材と同数設けられるとともに、この揺動部30における通路31の下流側近傍に、通路31に対してCD方向に移動する案内体32がCD方向に並設されている。複数本の細長状弾性部材13は各通路31に個別に通されてから、その全てが共通の案内体32間に通された後、取付位置へ案内されるようになっている。図2においては、CD方向の片側半分のみを示したが、本実施形態の揺動部30は、CD方向中央線に関して対称をなすようにCD方向両側にそれぞれ設けられ、揺動動作もCD方向中央線に関して対称をなすものである。   Characteristically, as shown in FIG. 2, when the elastic member is fed, the elastic member 13 is swung in the CD direction. That is, the elastic member feeding path on the upstream side of the first nip roll 22 is provided with a swinging portion 30 that swings in the CD direction. On the swinging portion 30, a passage 31 along the MD direction is provided in the CD direction. At least the same number of elongated elastic members to be guided are provided at intervals in the direction, and a guide body 32 that moves in the CD direction with respect to the passage 31 is provided near the downstream side of the passage 31 in the swing portion 30 in the CD direction. Are installed side by side. The plurality of elongated elastic members 13 are individually passed through the passages 31 and then all of them are passed between the common guide bodies 32 and then guided to the mounting position. Although only one half of the CD direction is shown in FIG. 2, the swinging portions 30 of this embodiment are provided on both sides of the CD direction so as to be symmetrical with respect to the CD center line, and the swinging operation is also performed in the CD direction. It is symmetric about the center line.

揺動部30は、図示しないシリンダー等の駆動装置によりCD方向に揺動(往復動)させることができる。具体的な揺動パターンは適宜定めることができるが、例えば、揺動部30を、製品1枚(使い捨ておむつ1枚)の長さを一周期とする波状パターンを形成するように外装シート12及びバックシート1の搬送と同期して、両シート12,1の幅の半分未満の範囲内でCD方向に揺動(往復運動を繰り返す)させることができる。揺動部30の移動速度は連続的に変化させるのが好ましいが、不連続に変化させても、また一定としても良い。   The swing part 30 can be swung (reciprocated) in the CD direction by a driving device such as a cylinder (not shown). A specific swing pattern can be determined as appropriate. For example, the swing sheet 30 is formed so as to form a wavy pattern in which the length of one product (one disposable diaper) is one cycle. In synchronization with the conveyance of the back sheet 1, it can be swung (repeatedly reciprocating) in the CD direction within a range of less than half the width of both sheets 12, 1. The moving speed of the oscillating unit 30 is preferably continuously changed, but may be changed discontinuously or may be constant.

揺動部30に設けられた複数の案内体32は。それぞれ上下方向に沿う丸棒状又は軸状の部材とされており、互いの移動範囲がCD方向に重複せずに、揺動部の揺動に同期して案内体32間の間隔が狭くなったり、広がったりするように構成されているものである。案内体32間に通される弾性部材13の本数は、複数であれば特に限定はない。よって、一部の弾性部材13は案内体32間を介して第1ニップロール22に送り込むが、残りの弾性部材13については案内体32間に通さずに直接に第1ニップロール22に送り込むこともできる。   A plurality of guide bodies 32 provided on the swing part 30. Each of the members is a round bar-like or shaft-like member along the vertical direction, and the distance between the guide bodies 32 becomes narrower in synchronization with the swinging of the swinging part without the mutual movement range overlapping in the CD direction. It is configured to spread. The number of elastic members 13 passed between the guide bodies 32 is not particularly limited as long as it is plural. Therefore, some elastic members 13 are sent to the first nip roll 22 through the guide bodies 32, but the remaining elastic members 13 can also be sent directly to the first nip roll 22 without passing between the guide bodies 32. .

案内体32の移動パターンは、弾性部材13の収束及び所定間隔への復元が可能な範囲内であれば適宜定めることができ、単に所定の範囲内で間隔を変化させるだけでなく、間隔部分の位置を変化させることもできる。案内体32の移動速度は連続的に変化させるのが好ましいが、不連続に変化させても、また一定としても良い。   The movement pattern of the guide body 32 can be determined as long as it is within a range in which the elastic member 13 can be converged and restored to a predetermined interval. In addition to changing the interval within the predetermined range, The position can also be changed. The moving speed of the guide body 32 is preferably continuously changed, but may be changed discontinuously or may be constant.

このように揺動部30を揺動させつつ揺動部30上の案内体32の間隔を広狭変化させることにより、弾性部材13の揺動と収束・所定間隔への復元とを同時並行的に行うことができる。図2〜5はこの一例を示している。すなわち、図2に示すように、揺動部30がその揺動範囲の中間部に位置する間は、案内体32の間隔を広げた状態に維持する。これにより、案内体32間に通された複数本の弾性部材13は通路31のCD方向間隔に応じた所定の間隔で取り付けられる。なお、図中の符号C1は括れ部分の切断予定位置、C2は個別化する際の切断予定位置をそれぞれ示している。   Thus, by swinging the swinging portion 30 and changing the interval between the guide bodies 32 on the swinging portion 30 in a wide and narrow manner, the elastic member 13 swings and converges and is restored to a predetermined interval simultaneously. It can be carried out. 2 to 5 show an example of this. That is, as shown in FIG. 2, while the swinging portion 30 is positioned at the middle portion of the swinging range, the interval between the guide bodies 32 is maintained wide. Thus, the plurality of elastic members 13 passed between the guide bodies 32 are attached at a predetermined interval corresponding to the CD direction interval of the passage 31. In addition, the code | symbol C1 in a figure has shown the cutting scheduled position of a constricted part, and C2 has each shown the cutting planned position at the time of individualization.

揺動部30が中間部からCD方向一方側の揺動端に達する前の第1の位置まで移動する間は、図3に示すように、CD方向一方側に向かうにつれて案内体32間の間隔を狭めていく。これにより、案内体32間に通された複数本の弾性部材13は、相互間隔が狭くなっていき、第1の位置で収束が完了する。   While the swinging part 30 moves from the intermediate part to the first position before reaching the swinging end on one side in the CD direction, as shown in FIG. To narrow. As a result, the plurality of elastic members 13 passed between the guide bodies 32 become narrower in mutual interval, and the convergence is completed at the first position.

揺動部30が第1の位置からCD方向一方側の揺動端に達した後、CD方向他方側に折り返して中間部に達する前の第2の位置まで移動する間は、図4に示すように、案内体32間の間隔を狭めた状態に維持する。これにより、複数本の弾性部材13を収束したまま揺動させることができる。
揺動部30が第2の位置から中間部まで移動する間は、図5に示すように、CD方向他方側に向かうにつれて案内体32の間隔を広げていく。これにより、案内体32間に通された複数本の弾性部材13は、相互間隔が広がっていき、中間部に到達した時点で、通路31のCD方向間隔に応じた所定の間隔となり、所定間隔への復元が完了する。
FIG. 4 shows how the oscillating portion 30 moves from the first position to the oscillating end on one side in the CD direction and then moves back to the second position before turning back to the other side in the CD direction. As described above, the distance between the guide bodies 32 is kept narrow. Thereby, the plurality of elastic members 13 can be swung while being converged.
While the swinging portion 30 moves from the second position to the intermediate portion, as shown in FIG. 5, the interval between the guide bodies 32 is increased toward the other side in the CD direction. As a result, the plurality of elastic members 13 passed between the guide bodies 32 increase in mutual interval, and when reaching the intermediate portion, become a predetermined interval corresponding to the CD direction interval of the passage 31, and the predetermined interval Restoration to is completed.

図6及び図7は、他の取付パターンの実施形態を示している。本発明では、案内体32の間隔の位置を揺動とは独立に移動させることができるため、図6に示すように、揺動による波状パターンを基本とし、その中で案内体32の間隔の位置を揺動させてより小さな波状の変化をもたらすことができる。また、図7に示すように、案内体32をCD方向に4つ並設し、隣接する第1の案内体32と第2の案内体32との間、及び隣接する第3の案内体32と第4の案内体32との間に、それぞれ複数本の弾性部材13を通すとともに、第1及び第2の案内体32の間隔及び間隔部分の位置と、第3及び第4の案内体32の間隔及び間隔部分の位置とを、例えば図示のように相互独立に変化させることで、第1及び第2の案内体32間に通された弾性部材群13と、第3及び第4の案内体32間に通された弾性部材群13との間隔を広狭変化させながら、個々の群13内において弾性部材13相互の間隔を広狭変化させることができる。   6 and 7 show other mounting pattern embodiments. In the present invention, since the position of the interval between the guide bodies 32 can be moved independently of the swinging, as shown in FIG. The position can be rocked to produce a smaller wavy change. Further, as shown in FIG. 7, four guide bodies 32 are arranged side by side in the CD direction, and between the adjacent first guide bodies 32 and the second guide bodies 32 and adjacent third guide bodies 32. A plurality of elastic members 13 are passed between the first guide body 32 and the fourth guide body 32, and the distance between the first and second guide bodies 32 and the position of the spacing portion, and the third and fourth guide bodies 32. The elastic member group 13 passed between the first and second guide bodies 32 and the third and fourth guides are changed by, for example, changing the interval and the position of the interval part independently as shown in the figure. While the distance between the elastic members 13 passed between the bodies 32 is changed widely, the distance between the elastic members 13 in each group 13 can be changed.

不透液性バックシート1としては、ポリエチレンフィルム等の他、ムレ防止の点から遮水性を損なわずに透湿性を備えたシートも用いることができる。この遮水・透湿性シートは、例えばポリエチレンやポリプロピレン等のオレフィン樹脂中に無機充填材を溶融混練してシートを形成した後、一軸または二軸方向に延伸することにより得られる微多孔性シートを用いることができる。肌触りを改善するために、不透液性バックシート1の外面に不織布を貼り付けて被覆することもできる。   As the liquid-impermeable back sheet 1, in addition to a polyethylene film or the like, a sheet having moisture permeability can be used without impairing water shielding from the viewpoint of preventing stuffiness. This water-impervious / breathable sheet is a microporous sheet obtained by, for example, melt-kneading an inorganic filler in an olefin resin such as polyethylene or polypropylene to form a sheet, and then stretching in a uniaxial or biaxial direction. Can be used. In order to improve the touch, a nonwoven fabric can be applied to the outer surface of the liquid-impermeable back sheet 1 to cover it.

外装シート12としては各種の不織布を用いることができる。不織布を構成する素材繊維としては、ポリエチレンまたはポリプロピレン等のオレフィン系、ポリエステル系、アミド系等の合成繊維の他、レーヨンやキュプラ等の再生繊維、綿等の天然繊維を用いることができる。   Various nonwoven fabrics can be used as the exterior sheet 12. As the material fiber constituting the nonwoven fabric, synthetic fibers such as polyethylene or polypropylene, synthetic fibers such as polyester and amide, recycled fibers such as rayon and cupra, and natural fibers such as cotton can be used.

透液性トップシート2としては、有孔または無孔の不織布や穴あきプラスチックシートなどが用いられる。不織布を構成する素材繊維としては、ポリエチレンまたはポリプロピレン等のオレフィン系、ポリエステル系、アミド系等の合成繊維の他、レーヨンやキュプラ等の再生繊維、綿等の天然繊維を用いることができる。   As the liquid-permeable top sheet 2, a perforated or non-porous nonwoven fabric or a perforated plastic sheet is used. As the material fiber constituting the nonwoven fabric, synthetic fibers such as polyethylene or polypropylene, synthetic fibers such as polyester and amide, recycled fibers such as rayon and cupra, and natural fibers such as cotton can be used.

吸収体3としては、パルプ繊維の積繊体、セルロースアセテート等のフィラメントの集合体、あるいは不織布を基本とし、必要に応じて高吸収性ポリマーを混合、固着等してなるものを用いることができる。必要に応じて、吸収体3はクレープ紙(図示せず)により包むことができる。また、吸収体3の形状は適宜定めることができるが、図示のような砂時計形状の他、長方形等のように、股間部の前側から後側まで延在する形状が好適である。   As the absorbent body 3, it is possible to use a laminate of pulp fibers, an aggregate of filaments such as cellulose acetate, or a nonwoven fabric, and a mixture obtained by mixing and fixing a superabsorbent polymer as necessary. . If necessary, the absorbent body 3 can be wrapped with crepe paper (not shown). Moreover, the shape of the absorber 3 can be determined as appropriate, but in addition to the hourglass shape as illustrated, a shape that extends from the front side to the rear side of the crotch portion, such as a rectangle, is preferable.

不透液性バックシート1は、吸収体3の周囲より外方に延在して略砂時計形状を成している。不透液性バックシート1の側方延在部の内面にはバリヤシート4の幅方向外側の部分4xが前後方向全体にわたり貼り付けられ、吸収体3の存在しないサイドフラップ部SFを構成している。バリヤシート4の幅方向中央側の部分4cはトップシート2上にまで延在しており、その幅方向中央側の端部には、細長状弾性部材4Gが前後方向に沿って伸張状態でホットメルト接着剤等により固定されている。この細長状弾性部材4G及び後述する細長状弾性部材13としては、糸状、紐状、帯状等に形成された、スチレン系ゴム、オレフィン系ゴム、ウレタン系ゴム、エステル系ゴム、ポリウレタン、ポリエチレン、ポリスチレン、スチレンブタジエン、シリコン、ポリエステル等、通常使用される素材を用いることができる。   The liquid-impermeable back sheet 1 extends outward from the periphery of the absorber 3 and has a substantially hourglass shape. On the inner surface of the laterally extending portion of the liquid-impervious backsheet 1, a portion 4x on the outer side in the width direction of the barrier sheet 4 is attached over the entire front-rear direction, thereby forming a side flap portion SF where the absorber 3 does not exist. Yes. A portion 4c on the center side in the width direction of the barrier seat 4 extends to the top sheet 2, and an elongated elastic member 4G is stretched along the front-rear direction at the end on the center side in the width direction. It is fixed with a melt adhesive or the like. As the elongated elastic member 4G and the elongated elastic member 13 described later, styrene rubber, olefin rubber, urethane rubber, ester rubber, polyurethane, polyethylene, polystyrene formed in a thread shape, a string shape, a belt shape, or the like. Commonly used materials such as styrene butadiene, silicon, and polyester can be used.

透液性トップシート2は、吸収体3より若干大きめの砂時計形状とされ、吸収体3側縁より若干外方に延在する部分がバリヤシート4と不透液性バックシート1との間に介在され不透液性バックシート1側にホットメルト接着剤等により固着されている。この固着部分は図3及び図4では点模様で示されている。バリヤシート4の素材としては、プラスチックシートやメルトブローン不織布を使用することもできるが、肌への感触性の点で、不織布にシリコンなどにより撥水処理をしたものが好適に使用される。   The liquid-permeable top sheet 2 has an hourglass shape that is slightly larger than the absorbent body 3, and a portion that extends slightly outward from the side edge of the absorbent body 3 is between the barrier sheet 4 and the liquid-impermeable back sheet 1. It is interposed and fixed to the liquid-impermeable backsheet 1 side by a hot melt adhesive or the like. This fixed portion is shown as a dot pattern in FIGS. As the material for the barrier sheet 4, a plastic sheet or a melt blown nonwoven fabric can be used. However, in terms of touch to the skin, a nonwoven fabric that is water-repellent treated with silicon or the like is preferably used.

不透液性バックシート1の外面を不織布で覆う場合には、不透液性バックシート1に代えて、外装不織布を吸収体3の周囲より外方に延在させてバリヤシート4の側部とともに、吸収体8の存在しないサイドフラップ部SFを構成することもできる。この場合、不透液性バックシート1をサイドフラップ部SFまで延在させず、トップシート2と同様の形状とすることができる。   When the outer surface of the liquid-impermeable back sheet 1 is covered with a nonwoven fabric, the exterior nonwoven fabric is extended outward from the periphery of the absorber 3 in place of the liquid-impermeable back sheet 1 and the side portion of the barrier sheet 4 At the same time, the side flap portion SF in which the absorber 8 does not exist can be configured. In this case, the liquid-impermeable back sheet 1 can be formed in the same shape as the top sheet 2 without extending to the side flap portion SF.

図3及び図4にも示されるように、両バリヤシート4,4は、幅方向外側の部分4xが前後方向全体にわたり物品内面(図示形態ではトップシート2表面およびバックシート1内面)に着脱しないように固定されるとともに、幅方向中央側の部分4cが、前後方向の両端部では物品内面(図示形態ではトップシート2表面)に着脱しないように固定され、かつ前後方向の両端部間では物品内面(図示形態ではトップシート2表面)に固定されていない。この非固定部分は、図4に示されるように、物品内面(図示形態ではトップシート2表面)に対して起立可能なバリヤ部となる部分であり、その起立基端4bはバリヤシート4における幅方向外側の固定部分4xと内側の部分4cとの境に位置する。   As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, both barrier sheets 4, 4 are not attached to and detached from the inner surface of the article (the top sheet 2 surface and the back sheet 1 inner surface in the illustrated embodiment) in the widthwise outer portion 4 x throughout the entire front-rear direction. The portion 4c on the center side in the width direction is fixed so as not to be attached to and detached from the inner surface of the article (the surface of the top sheet 2 in the illustrated embodiment) at both ends in the front-rear direction, and between the both ends in the front-rear direction. It is not fixed to the inner surface (the top sheet 2 surface in the illustrated form). As shown in FIG. 4, this non-fixed portion is a portion that becomes a barrier portion that can stand up with respect to the inner surface of the article (the surface of the top sheet 2 in the illustrated embodiment). It is located at the boundary between the fixed portion 4x on the outer side in the direction and the inner portion 4c.

使い捨ておむつの前後方向両端部では、不透液性バックシート1および透液性トップシート2が吸収体3の前後端よりも前後両側にそれぞれ延在され、吸収体3の存在しないエンドフラップ部EFが形成され、このうち背側のエンドフラップ部EFにおいては、複数本、図示の例では3本の糸状弾性部材7,7…が幅方向に沿って配設されている。この糸状弾性部材7としては、通常使用されるスチレン系ゴム、オレフィン系ゴム、ウレタン系ゴム、エステル系ゴム、ポリウレタン、ポリエチレン、ポリスチレン、スチレンブタジエン、シリコン、ポリエステル等の素材を用いることができる。   At both ends of the disposable diaper in the front-rear direction, the liquid-impervious backsheet 1 and the liquid-permeable topsheet 2 are respectively extended from the front and rear ends of the absorbent body 3 to the front and rear sides, and the end flap portions EF without the absorbent body 3 exist. In the end flap portion EF on the back side, a plurality of yarn-like elastic members 7, 7... In the illustrated example are arranged along the width direction. As the thread-like elastic member 7, materials such as styrene rubber, olefin rubber, urethane rubber, ester rubber, polyurethane, polyethylene, polystyrene, styrene butadiene, silicon, and polyester that are usually used can be used.

また、背側の両サイドフラップ部SFには、それぞれファスニングテープ5,5が側方に突出するように取り付けられるとともに、使い捨ておむつの腹側表面に幅方向に沿ってフロントターゲットテープ6が貼着されており、このフロントターゲットテープ6にファスニングテープ5の接合片8aを止着することによって使い捨ておむつが身体に装着されるようになっている。   In addition, the fastening tapes 5 and 5 are attached to the dorsal side flap portions SF so as to protrude sideways, and the front target tape 6 is attached to the abdominal side surface of the disposable diaper along the width direction. The disposable diaper is attached to the body by fastening the joining piece 8 a of the fastening tape 5 to the front target tape 6.

図示例のファスニングテープ5は、1枚のファスニング基材シート8の内端側を使い捨ておむつ側に接着して取り付けられ、先端側には外側縁から延在して上下2段で側方に突出する接合片8a、8aが形成され、接合片8a、8aの間のファスニング基材シート8部分に対し、外側縁から内側に向かい、かつ水平方向に沿ってミシン目10が設けられているものであるが、これに限られず公知のファスニングテープを用いることができる。ファスニング基材シート8としては、種々のシート材を使用することができるが、好ましくは坪量40〜80g/m2の単層又は複層の不織布を用いるのがよい。加工法は強度特性に優れたスパンボンドが好ましい。接合片8a、8aの内面側(透液性表面シート2側)には、表面にフック状突起を多数有する第1フックテープ(メカニカルファスナーの雄材)9,9がそれぞれ取り付けられ、フック状突起が着脱可能に掛止される表面を有するフロントターゲットテープ(メカニカルファスナーの雌材)6へ接合可能となっている。 The fastening tape 5 of the illustrated example is attached by attaching the inner end side of one fastening base sheet 8 to the disposable diaper side, and extends from the outer edge to the tip side and protrudes sideways in two steps. The joining pieces 8a and 8a are formed, and the perforation 10 is provided from the outer edge toward the inside and along the horizontal direction with respect to the fastening base sheet 8 portion between the joining pieces 8a and 8a. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a known fastening tape can be used. Although various sheet materials can be used as the fastening base sheet 8, it is preferable to use a single-layer or multi-layer nonwoven fabric having a basis weight of 40 to 80 g / m 2 . The processing method is preferably spunbond having excellent strength characteristics. First hook tapes (male materials of mechanical fasteners) 9 and 9 having a large number of hook-like projections on the surface are attached to the inner surface side (liquid permeable surface sheet 2 side) of the joining pieces 8a and 8a, respectively. It can be joined to a front target tape (a female material of a mechanical fastener) 6 having a surface that is detachably hooked.

そして特徴的には、幅方向両側に、腹側部分から背側部分にわたり延在するように、複数本の細長状弾性部材13がそれぞれ設けられている。この弾性部材13は、前述した製造方法により取り付けることができ、本形態では外装シート12とバックシート1との間に接着剤を用いて固定されているが、サイドフラップ部SFのみに設ける場合等、取付位置に応じて、バックシート1とバリヤシート4との間や、バックシート1とトップシート2との間に設けることもできる。   Characteristically, a plurality of elongated elastic members 13 are provided on both sides in the width direction so as to extend from the abdominal part to the back part. The elastic member 13 can be attached by the above-described manufacturing method. In this embodiment, the elastic member 13 is fixed between the exterior sheet 12 and the back sheet 1 using an adhesive, but is provided only on the side flap portion SF. Depending on the mounting position, it can be provided between the back sheet 1 and the barrier sheet 4 or between the back sheet 1 and the top sheet 2.

特に本形態においては、サイドフラップ部SFにおいて、脚周りに沿うように形成された括れ部分に沿って延在する複数本(図示例では5本)の外側弾性部材13と、腹側及び背側のサイドフラップ部SFに始端及び終端を有し、股間側の部分において吸収体と重なる部分まで内側に膨出延在する複数本(図示例では3本)の内側弾性部材13とが設けられている。   Particularly in the present embodiment, in the side flap portion SF, a plurality (five in the illustrated example) of outer elastic members 13 extending along the constricted portion formed so as to extend around the legs, the ventral side and the back side. A plurality of (three in the illustrated example) inner elastic members 13 having a start end and a terminal end in the side flap portion SF and extending inward to a portion overlapping the absorber in the crotch portion are provided. Yes.

外側弾性部材13は、前後方向に沿って延在するように束ねられた背側端部収束部分13sと、及び前後方向に沿って延在するように束ねられた腹側端部収束部分13sと、これらの中間部としての、弾性部材13相互の間隔が空けられた非収束部分とを有している。   The outer elastic member 13 includes a back-side end converging portion 13s bundled so as to extend along the front-rear direction, and a ventral-side end converging portion 13s bundled so as to extend along the front-rear direction. , And a non-converging part in which the elastic members 13 are spaced apart from each other as an intermediate part thereof.

内側弾性部材13は、前後方向に沿って延在するように束ねられた背側端部収束部分13sと、及び前後方向に沿って延在するように束ねられた腹側端部収束部分13sと、背側及び腹側端部収束部分13s間の部分のうち背側端部収束部分13sの近傍及において、おむつ前後方向中央からファスニングテープ側へ向かうにつれて幅方向外側に位置するように向きを変えつつ斜めに延在する背側傾斜収束部分13tと、背側及び腹側端部収束部分13s間の部分のうち腹側端部収束部分13sの近傍及において、おむつ前後方向中央からファスニングテープ側へ向かうにつれて幅方向外側に位置するように向きを変えつつ斜めに延在する腹側傾斜収束部分13tと、これら背側及び腹側傾斜収束部分13t間の中間部としての、弾性部材13相互の間隔が空けられた非収束部分とを有している。   The inner elastic member 13 includes a back end converging portion 13s bundled so as to extend along the front-rear direction, and a ventral end converging portion 13s bundled so as to extend along the front-rear direction. In the vicinity of the dorsal end portion converging portion 13s in the portion between the dorsal side and the ventral end converging portion 13s, the direction is changed so as to be positioned on the outer side in the width direction from the center of the diaper in the front-rear direction to the fastening tape side. In the vicinity of the ventral end portion converging portion 13s of the portion between the dorsal inclined converging portion 13t and the dorsal side and ventral end portion converging portion 13s, the center of the diaper is moved from the center in the front-rear direction to the fastening tape. The elastic member 1 as an intermediate portion between the ventral side inclined converging portion 13t extending obliquely while changing the direction so as to be positioned on the outer side in the width direction, and the dorsal side and the ventral side inclined converging portion 13t. And a non-convergent portions mutually spaced.

これら外側及び内側弾性部材13における背側及び腹側端部収束部分13sは、サイドフラップ部SFにおける脚周り括れ部分より上側に設けられており、特に背側端部収束部13sはファスニングテープ5の基端部と重なる位置に設けられている。また、特に背側及び腹側端部収束部分13sは前後方向に沿う直線状にするよりも、前後方向に沿わないように傾斜した直線状や、緩やかな弧状等の曲線状にするのが望ましい。   The back side and ventral side end converging portions 13 s of the outer and inner elastic members 13 are provided above the legs around the side flap portions SF, and in particular, the back side end converging portion 13 s of the fastening tape 5 is provided. It is provided at a position overlapping the base end. In particular, the dorsal and ventral end converging portions 13s are preferably formed in a straight line that does not follow the front-rear direction, or a curved line such as a gentle arc, rather than a straight line extending in the front-rear direction. .

また、外側及び内側弾性部材13における背側及び腹側端部収束部13sは、単一の束として収束されており、その端部側の一部または全部が接着固定されていない。これは、製造時に行われる前後縁での切断により弾性部材13を同時に切断し、弾性部材13の前後端部を収縮させて、外装シート12とバックシート1との間に引き込ませ、前後縁からはみ出ないようにするためである。この結果、図13に点線で示すように、外装シート12とバックシート1との間に筒状の通路12rが形成される。この通路12rは製品前後縁に開口する。外側及び内側弾性部材13の他の部分は、内側弾性部材13における背側及び腹側傾斜収束部分13tを含め、伸張状態で両シート12,1に接着固定される。   Further, the dorsal and ventral end convergent portions 13s of the outer and inner elastic members 13 are converged as a single bundle, and a part or all of the end portions are not bonded and fixed. This is because the elastic member 13 is simultaneously cut by cutting at the front and rear edges performed at the time of manufacture, and the front and rear end portions of the elastic member 13 are contracted to be drawn between the exterior sheet 12 and the backsheet 1 and from the front and rear edges. This is to prevent it from protruding. As a result, a cylindrical passage 12r is formed between the exterior sheet 12 and the back sheet 1 as indicated by a dotted line in FIG. This passage 12r opens at the front and rear edges of the product. The other parts of the outer and inner elastic members 13 are adhesively fixed to both sheets 12 and 1 in an extended state, including the back side and ventral side inclined converging parts 13t of the inner elastic member 13.

かくして構成されたテープ式使い捨ておむつでは、サイドフラップ部SFにおいて、脚周り方向のみならず、胴回り方向に対しても伸縮性が発揮されるようになる。特に背側における内側弾性部材13は、ファスニングテープ5の基端部と重なる部分まで収束部分が延在され、且つ伸張状態で固定されているため、ファスニングテープ5の締め付けに対して胴回り方向の伸縮性を発揮して追従することができ、フィット性に優れたものとなる。   In the tape-type disposable diaper thus configured, the side flap portion SF exhibits elasticity not only in the leg-surrounding direction but also in the waistline direction. In particular, the inner elastic member 13 on the back side has a convergent portion extending to a portion overlapping with the base end portion of the fastening tape 5 and is fixed in an expanded state. It is possible to follow and exhibit excellent performance, and it has excellent fit.
