  Such an inclined joint portion 38 has a concave space (dent) inside the joint portion 38 when the absorbent surface is opened so as to reach the male genitalia for use as a male light incontinence pad. Work to form. The joint 38 does not necessarily have to be formed as a continuous slope line or slope band, and is discontinuous as long as it has sufficient joint strength that will not peel off when the male incontinence pad is opened and worn on the wearer. The shape of a circular shape, a rectangular shape, or the like having an appropriate bonding area in a region at an appropriate distance from the binding portion 35 at the end edge on the ground side of the booklet-like laminate. It can also be formed as a joint portion. In addition, the joint portion may be formed as a continuous binding portion including an inclined portion corresponding to the joint portion 38 when the absorbent sheets constituting the booklet-like laminate are integrally joined by the binding portion 35. it can.

6A to 6D are cross-sectional views illustrating an example in which a back binding sheet 80 is attached so as to cover the binding portion 35 of the absorbent laminate constituting the light incontinence pad for men of the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 6A, the back binding sheet 80 has two back binding sheets in which a liquid-impermeable film 82 is used as an inner layer and a nonwoven fabric is laminated as an outer layer, and covers the back including the binding portion 35 widely. You may reinforce by sticking, and as shown in FIG. 6B, you may reinforce with back binding sheets 80, such as two films of a single layer, or a nonwoven fabric.
Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 6C, a single-layer back binding sheet 80 may be covered and reinforced by covering the entire back including the binding portion 35. As shown in FIG. It is also possible to join and fix together at the time of forming the binding portion in a state where the end portions on the binding portion side of the outer absorbent sheet are separately covered with the back binding sheet 80.

As shown in FIG. 7, the light incontinence pad for men according to the present invention can of course have three layers of the medium-side absorbent sheet on the double-sided adsorbing surface, and has a large number of double-sided adsorbing surfaces. It is also possible to make a laminate having an intermediate absorbent sheet, but it is not preferable to keep wearing for too long in a state including a used surface, and it is desirable to avoid being bulky, It is preferable to include a middle-side absorbent sheet of about 2 to 3 layers that can secure a use surface that can handle one day of light incontinence.
Moreover, as shown in FIG. 7, it is preferable to make the corner | angular part of the side which contacts the wearer's skin of the absorbent sheet of the light incontinence pad for men into a gentle shape with roundness.

Hereinafter, the material used for the male light incontinence pad of the present invention will be described in more detail.
[Absorbent sheet]
The light incontinence pad for men of the present invention includes an absorbent sheet as a member having a function of absorbing and holding urine excreted by the wearer. This absorbent sheet is formed by laminating a plurality of sheets with the absorbent body sandwiched therebetween, and as described above, the absorbent body is sandwiched between the support sheet and the water-permeable sheet and joined and integrated. This is true.

[Water-permeable sheet]
A water-permeable sheet is a sheet | seat arrange | positioned on the inner surface of an absorbent sheet, ie, the surface located in the side which touches a wearer's skin.
This water-permeable sheet allows the excreted urine to pass quickly to the absorber side in the absorbent sheet, and by having a water-permeable inner surface, the disposed urine does not leak out of the incontinence pad. It quickly reaches the absorber and is absorbed and retained. If the water-permeable sheet is a sheet having urine permeability, the material of the sheet is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a woven fabric, a nonwoven fabric, and a porous film.
As a more preferable example of the inner sheet, a liquid-permeable nonwoven fabric can be mentioned. By using such a liquid-permeable non-woven fabric, the touch is good and the smoothness of the surface after liquid absorption can be improved.

  The inner surface of the absorbent sheet may be an absorbent surface that can sufficiently perform the function of absorbing urine during incontinence under normal use of the light incontinence pad as a whole. It is not always necessary to use a surface made of a conductive sheet. For example, a surface combined with another sheet material having a function required for a surface in contact with the skin can be used.

[Support sheet]
The support sheet is a sheet that supports the absorbent body together with the water-permeable sheet disposed so as to cover an outer layer. In the case of the outer absorbent sheet of the light incontinence pad, the support sheet is disposed on the side facing the wearer's clothes. It is a sheet. The support sheet is a liquid-impermeable sheet through which urine does not permeate so as not to leak urine absorbed by the absorber to the outside of the absorbent sheet, and is permeable under pressure. It is preferable that the sheet is composed of a liquid low-permeability sheet that hardly permeates.

  As the above-mentioned support sheet, a polyethylene film which is used as a liquid-impermeable sheet in general absorbent products can be cited as a suitable example. Such polyethylene films include a moisture-permeable polyethylene film and a non-moisture-permeable polyethylene film, and any film can be used as a support sheet, but a moisture-permeable polyethylene film can be more suitably used. By using such a moisture-permeable polyethylene film as a support sheet, the stuffiness during wearing is reduced, and the comfort when a light incontinence pad is worn can be improved.

Moreover, as a liquid low-permeability sheet | seat mentioned above, a nonwoven fabric with a high water pressure resistance can be mentioned as a suitable example. As the nonwoven fabric with high water pressure resistance, for example, nonwoven fabrics such as SMS (spunbond / meltblown / spunbond) and SMMS (spunbond / meltblown / meltblown / spunbond) are preferable.
Since these non-woven fabrics are obtained by accumulating and bonding hydrophobic synthetic fibers, they may repel urine, but urine may pass when pressure is applied. However, when the male incontinence pad for men of the present invention is used as a light incontinence pad for mild incontinence by a man living in daily life, the amount of urine at the time of incontinence is small, so such a liquid low Even a permeable sheet can be sufficiently used as an outer sheet. Thereby, air permeability can be further improved as compared with the case where the above-described polyethylene film is used, and the comfort when the light incontinence pad is worn can be further improved.

  The water pressure resistance is a numerical value representing the performance (waterproofness) that suppresses the force applied to the moisture that is going to soak into the fabric constituting the sheet. For example, in JIS L 1092 water resistance test A method It can be measured by a compliant method. In the light incontinence pad for men of the present invention, the water pressure resistance is 40 mmAq. The above nonwoven fabrics can be mentioned, and the water pressure resistance is 100 mmAq. The above nonwoven fabric can be used suitably.

  Furthermore, as the support sheet, a sheet obtained by laminating the polyethylene film and the nonwoven fabric having a high water pressure resistance may be used. By configuring in this way, when the light incontinence pad for men is replaced or worn, the outer sheet and the wearer's underwear rub against each other, or when the outer sheet is touched, it is difficult for the wearer to make noise. It can be worn safely without worrying about eyes and ears.

〔Absorber〕
As an absorber, the absorber currently used for the general absorptive product can be used. For example, as an absorbent material constituting the absorber, fluff pulp obtained by pulverizing wood pulp into a cotton shape and a highly water-absorbing resin (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “SAP”) can be cited as preferred examples.
If necessary, in order to wrap the absorbent material, a water absorbent paper or a hydrophilic nonwoven fabric may be further included. That is, it can be set as the absorber which wraps the absorbent material containing fluff pulp and SAP with the above-mentioned water-absorbent paper or a non-woven fabric hydrophilized.

  In the light incontinence pad for men of the present invention, as long as it is for light incontinence use to cope with a very small amount of water absorption, the absorber does not require a large amount of absorption, so the incontinence pad can be made thin. In order to meet the needs, the absorbent body and one sheet sandwiching the absorbent body may be integrally formed. For example, by directly fixing SAP on the above-described SMS nonwoven fabric or SMMS nonwoven fabric, and further covering the surface with the above absorbent paper or nonwoven fabric for wrapping, the absorbent body and the back sheet are integrated, and one sheet having both functions It may be used as a water absorbing sheet. An SAP sheet in which only SAP is sandwiched between hydrophilic nonwoven fabrics can also be used.

  The arrangement state of the absorbent body is not particularly limited, and may be arranged continuously, or may be arranged separately, but as shown in FIG. 1C, the outer peripheral area of the absorbent sheet It is preferable that the absorber is not arranged.

(Binding part)
The light incontinence pad for men of the present invention has a binding portion formed on the back of a booklet-like laminate. This binding portion is preferably formed by any one of the following methods (1) to (3) when the inner absorbent sheet portion and the outer absorbent sheet portion are bound and integrated into a booklet. .

(1) The respective absorbent sheets are integrated into a booklet form by a binding portion obtained by overlapping and binding the crease portions folded in a valley fold with the absorbent surface of the absorbent sheet facing inward.

(2) The end portions of each absorbent sheet are aligned and laminated, and one end portion of the end portions is integrated by a binding portion obtained by flat binding.

(3) The absorbent sheet folded with the absorbent surface facing inward is laminated with the other absorbent sheet, and at the folded fold, it is bound and integrated with the end of the other absorbent sheet. .

  In the case of the above (1), for example, like a light incontinence pad for men as shown in FIG. 1C, on the one hand, the absorbent sheet portion 24a and the absorbent sheet portion 24b are turned inward at the fold 36a. Forming the absorbent sheet portion 24a folded, and on the other hand, forming the absorbent sheet portion 24c folded inward at the fold portion 36b obtained by valley-folding the absorbent sheet portion 24d and the absorbent sheet portion 24c, The fold portions 36a and 36b of the absorbent sheet portion 24a and the absorbent sheet portion 24c are put together so as to overlap each other, and the space between the opposite support sheet surfaces of the absorbent sheet portion 24b and the absorbent sheet portion 24c is folded. When the overlapping part of the eye part 36a and the crease part 36b is joined to form the middle absorbent sheet 24b which is an integrated double-sided absorbent surface It is possible to form a binding portion 35.

  As shown in FIG. 1A, an opening surface A that opens the inner side of the outer absorbent sheet 24a by forming such a binding portion and forming a middle absorbent sheet portion that is a double-sided absorbent surface. When the urine is absorbed using the male container, urine does not leak out by the support sheet 20 of the outer absorbent sheet 24a, and the support provided by the inner absorbent sheet 24b which is a double-sided absorbent surface The urine does not ooze out into the unused open surface B of the middle absorbent sheet 24b by the sheets 20, 20, and the middle absorbent sheet 24b is simply tilted in the direction of closing the open surface A after using the open surface A. Thus, at the same time as the use surface A is confined, the unused open surface B can be exposed and applied to the male genitalia.

In the above usage example, the aspect in which the opening surface A is used first has been described. Of course, the opening surface B can also be used first.
In addition, joining between the support sheet 20, 20 of the absorbent sheet portion 24b and the absorbent sheet portion 24c facing each other in the middle absorbent sheet portion 24b which is a double-sided absorbent surface is a continuous or intermittent joining means. Can be done.
Moreover, it may be permitted that the support sheets 20 are not joined. For example, the case where the open surface formed by the support sheets 20 and 20 is used for purposes other than absorption is conceivable. More specifically, if a highly comfortable surface material is laminated on the support sheet that forms an open surface formed by the support sheet, a highly comfortable inner surface that can be addressed except when using the absorbent surface. Can be provided. Examples of the highly comfortable surface material include a mesh sheet (nonwoven fabric, film, cloth).

In the case of the above (2), as described with reference to FIG. 2, only one side formed by laminating and integrating the absorber 22a between the support sheet 20 and the water-permeable sheet 18 is the absorbent surface. Similarly, the absorbent sheet portion 24a ₂ and the absorbent sheet portion 24c _{2 in} which the absorbent body 22d is disposed between the support sheet 20 and the water-permeable sheet 18 and laminated and integrated are the absorbent surfaces only. Separately, the absorbent sheets 22b and 22c are arranged on both sides of the support sheet 20, and the absorbent sheet is formed by laminating and integrating the water-permeable sheets 18 so as to cover the respective absorbent bodies. The part 24b ₂ is produced, the absorbent sheet part 24a ₂ and the absorbent sheet part 24c ₂ are arranged facing each other so that the respective absorbent surfaces are inside, and between the absorbent sheet parts 24a ₂ and 24c ₂ . In a state where the absorbent sheet portion 24b ₂ is sandwiched, the overlapping end portions of the three sheets are joined and integrated to form the binding portion 35.

In the case of a booklet the shaped laminate of the above structure, only one surface each of the absorbent surface of the absorbent sheet portion 24a ₂ and 24c ₂ is absorptive surface, the absorbent sheet portion 24b ₂ on both sides is absorptive surface The non-bonded portions C and D between the double-sided absorbent surfaces are open surfaces.

In the case of the above (3), as described with reference to FIG. 3A, the absorbent bodies 22a and 22b are arranged apart from each other between the support sheet 20 and the water-permeable sheet 18, and the whole is laminated and integrated. Is folded at the valley fold 36a in the region where the absorbers 22a and 22b are separated to produce a bi-fold absorbent sheet, and separately, the absorber 22b on both sides of the support sheet 20 and the 22c arranged, each absorber overlying water permeable sheet 18 laminated integrally with the both surfaces are formed is prepared the absorbent sheet portion 24b ₃ is absorptive surface Folded absorbent sheet It was inserted between the one end of the absorbent sheet portion 24b ₃ in the state plugged into valley portion 36a of the two-folded absorbent sheet, against the one end of the absorbent sheet portion 24b ₃ and valley folding portion 36a Forming a binding unit 35 and.

Booklet present like laminate of Figure 3A formed as described above, each of the absorbing face only one side is absorbing face a is the absorbent sheet portion 24a ₃ and 24c _3, both sides are absorbing face absorption The non-bonded portion E and the non-bonded portion F between the double-sided absorbent surfaces of the adhesive sheet portion 24b ₃ are open surfaces.

Furthermore, in the case of (3), for example, as in a light incontinence pad for men as shown in FIG. 3B, the absorbent sheet 24a ₄ and the absorbent sheet 24c ₄ that are folded in a valley are aligned and laminated, The binding portion 35 can be formed by joining the portions by heat sealing or the like.
By forming such a binding portion, the non-bonding portion H between the absorbent inner surface of the outer absorbent sheet 24a ₄ and one absorbent surface of the middle absorbent sheet 24b ₄ and the outer absorbent sheet portion 24c. The non-joint part G between the absorbent inner surface _{4 and the} other absorbent surface of the middle absorbent sheet 24b ₄ becomes an open surface.

  Although the method of said (1)-(3) is a manufacture example of the light incontinence pad for men using several absorbent sheets, the light incontinence pad for men of this invention is shape | molded also with one absorbent sheet. be able to. As already described in the description of FIG. 3C, the absorbers 22a, 22b, 22c, and 22d are arranged in series with a predetermined interval between the support sheet 20 and the water-permeable sheet 18, and the whole is laminated and integrated. W-shaped by repeating valley fold, mountain fold, and valley fold so that one side of the structure having an absorbent surface is an absorbent surface so that the absorbent surface is on the inner side in the part where each absorber is separated The booklet-like laminate having the binding portion 35 is formed by folding and joining two valley fold portions.

In the booklet-like laminate of FIG. 3C formed as described above, non-bonding between the absorbent sheet portion 24a ₅ whose only surface is the absorbent surface and the absorbent sheet portion 24b ₅ whose both surfaces are the absorbent surface. The unbonded state portion K between the state portion J and the absorbent sheet portion 24c ₅ which is the absorbent surface having the absorbent body 22d ₅ on one side and the absorbent sheet portion 24b ₅ whose both surfaces are the absorbent surface is an open surface. Become.
By forming such a binding portion 35, it is possible to easily form a light incontinence pad for men having two open surfaces with a single laminate. In addition, since there is no absorber in the binding portion 35, there is no possibility of leakage of urine from the binding portion 35.

  The binding portion 35 is preferably formed by binding in a blank portion where the absorbent body of each absorbent sheet does not exist. In the case of FIG. 2, the binding portion 35 is formed by joining the sheet portion close to the end portion of the absorbent body 22, whereas in FIG. 4, the binding portion 35 is formed in the blank portion 75 where the absorbent body 22 does not exist. Is formed. The structure shown in FIG. 4 makes it easy to fold the absorbent sheet portion, and the folded portion does not become thick. Therefore, the light incontinence pad for men having such a structure gives a sense of incongruity when worn. There will be no such thing. Moreover, since the absorber is not formed close to the binding portion, urine leakage from the absorber does not occur.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3B, the edge portion on the small edge side of the support sheet 20 in the middle absorbent sheet 24b ₄ disposed in the middle of the two open surfaces closed the open surface G or H. Sometimes, it is preferable that the outer edge of the outer absorbent sheet is protruded outward from the edge of the outer absorbent sheet so as to cover the edge of the outer absorbent sheet supporting sheet 20 on the edge of the outer edge.

In this case, since the tip of the support sheet 20 of the middle absorbent sheet 24b ₄ covers the dirt on the opening surface that was used first, when the opening surface to be used next is directed to the male genital, Even if the opening surface used for cleaning is wet or dirty, it is possible to prevent the male genitalia from touching such dirty parts.
Examples of the method for fixing the binding portion 35 include adhesion using an adhesive, heat sealing, ultrasonic sealing, fusion using a hot embossing roll, and pressure bonding using a pressure roll.

[Joint that maintains the crease]
As shown in FIG. 5B, the light incontinence pad 1 b for men of the present invention is not bonded by the binding portion 35, but from the middle of the binding portion 35 to one end portion, There may be provided an inclined joint portion 38 that integrally joins the sheets, reaching a location that is a predetermined distance away from both longitudinal ends of the binding portion 35 in the lower end portion 29 on the ground side or the upper end portion 28 on the top side. . Such an inclined joint portion 38 is a portion (a binding portion) where the joint portion is formed when the wearer tries to form an open surface in order to use the male incontinence pad. It is provided to limit the open state so that the gap between the absorbent sheets in the inner valley folded state cannot be completely opened.
The absorbent sheet having such a joint portion 38 is formed with a concave space (pocket) in the inner portion of the joint portion when the opening surface is unfolded during use.
In addition, the above-mentioned “development” means that the absorbent sheet of the booklet-like laminate can be expanded (expanded), and the inner surface side of the booklet-like laminate can be used by being directed to the wearer. It means to be in a proper state.

  As shown to FIG. 5A, the light incontinence pad for men which has the inclination junction part 38 which goes to the lower end part 29 used as the ground side of a booklet-like laminated body expanded the absorbent sheet of a booklet-like laminated body (development). In the case where the inner portion of the binding portion 35 can extend between the absorbent sheets up to the binding portion, in the peripheral portion of the joint portion 38, between the absorbent sheets in the valley fold state to the joint portion inside the binding portion 35 Cannot be expanded sufficiently, and a tack (that is, a crease-like crease) is formed on the absorbent sheet around the joint portion 35, and a concave space is formed on the inner surface side of the absorbent sheet. .

  When the light incontinence pad for men has such a shape, the fit (contained state) when addressed to a male genital becomes very good. In particular, by placing the light incontinence pad on the testicle side so that the joint side is located on the wearer's testicle side, the male organ should be extended so that the light incontinence pad extends from the testicle side to the wearer's front (front body). Since it can be covered, the uncomfortable feeling at the time of wearing can be reduced significantly.

The joint for forming the concave space can be formed by bonding with an adhesive, heat sealing, ultrasonic sealing, fusion with a hot embossing roll, pressure bonding with a pressure roll, or the like.

By comprising in this way, high leak-proof property is provided between the absorptive sheet 24 and the back binding sheet 80 by joining of the outer surface sheet 20a and the back binding sheet 80 and joining of the outer surface sheet 20b and the back binding sheet 80. be able to.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 6C, the outer sheet 20 and the back binding sheet 80 may be joined by a hot melt adhesive or the like, and the back binding sheets 80 may be joined without using an absorbent sheet. By comprising in this way, since a spine binding part becomes thin, it is easy to expand | deploy the light incontinence pad for men, and can make it not bulky.

  As shown in FIG. 6D, after the edge portions on the binding side of both outer side absorbent sheets are separately covered with the back binding sheet 80, the edge portion of the middle side absorbent sheet is bound to the binding edge of both outer side absorbent sheets. After overlapping so as to be sandwiched between spine binding sheets 80 and 80 that separately cover the edge portions on the side, the folds of both spine binding sheets 80 and 80 are placed on the support sheets 20 and 20 and the water permeable sheet. The joint portion 77 may be formed by extending outward from the end portions of 18, 18, 18, and 18, and superimposing and joining the extended portions in a palm shape. By comprising in this way, the urine oozing from the edge part of each water-permeable sheet 18 can be prevented effectively, and the high leak-proof property is provided to the binding part 35. FIG.

  In the above example, the male incontinence pad having two open surfaces has been described. However, the present invention includes one that can develop two or more open surfaces. Even in the case of providing three or more open surfaces as shown in (1), it can be easily manufactured by combining the methods for forming the binding portions of (1) to (3).
