  FIG. 16 is a development view showing another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 16 is a development view of the disposable diaper 1 and is a view of the disposable diaper 1 as seen from the skin surface side. The disposable diaper 1 shown in FIG. 16 includes an exterior sheet 2, an absorbent body 3, and a liquid-impervious leak-proof sheet 4, and includes one waistline opening 8 and a pair of leg-hole openings 9. It has a trunk shape.

  In the disposable diaper 1 shown in FIG. 16, the front body F has a front waistline region FW including a plurality of elastic members 6F and a front crotch region FC, and the back body R includes a plurality of elastic members 6R. The rear waistline region RW and the rear crotch region RC are included, and the side edge of the front waistline region FW and the side edge of the rear waistline region RW are joined at the joint portion J, whereby the waistline opening 8 Then, the side edge of the front crotch region FC and the side edge of the rear crotch region RC are joined at the joint J, whereby a pair of leg opening 9 is formed.

  In the disposable diaper 1 shown in FIG. 16, in the rear crotch region RC, the exterior sheet 2 is a pair of gear rolls, and rotates while meshing a plurality of teeth arranged on the outer peripheral surfaces of the gear rolls. It includes a gear extension region 15 formed by passing it through a gap in the object. In the disposable diaper shown in FIG. 16, the range of the absorbent body 3 and the range of the gear extension region 15 partially overlap in the thickness direction.

FIG. 17 is a view showing a YY cross section of the disposable diaper 1 shown in FIG. 16.
In an embodiment in which the range of the absorbent body and the range of the gear extension region overlap in the thickness direction of the disposable diaper as shown in FIG. 17, the absorbent body is liquid-free in the range of overlap with the gear extension region. It is preferable that the sheet is not fixed to two or more non-continuous regions of the exterior sheet both when the permeable leakage preventing sheet is interposed and when the liquid impermeable leakage preventing sheet is not interposed. This is because the depression 16 that can be along the user's buttocks may be blocked.

  As long as the gear extension region is arranged in the rear crotch region, the range of the gear extension region may overlap with the range of the absorber, but the range of the gear extension region overlaps with the range of the absorber. In this case, it is preferable to fix the absorbent body to the exterior sheet after gear-stretching the exterior sheet. Although the manufacturing method of the disposable diaper of this invention is mentioned later, when an exterior sheet | seat is gear-stretched with an absorber, it is because problems, such as an exterior sheet | seat not being gear-stretched and the structure of an absorber being destroyed, will arise.

  Moreover, it is preferable that the said gear extending | stretching area | region does not exist in a rear side waist area. This is because the gear extending region is generally formed after the elastic member is disposed on the exterior sheet, and therefore, when the rear waistline region is gear extended, the elastic member is likely to be broken.

  The gear extension region is preferably disposed at a position spaced at least about 30 mm from the side edge of the exterior sheet. When the side edges of the exterior sheet are gear-extended, a position shift occurs when the side edges of the front body and the back body of the disposable diaper are joined. As a result, the shape of the front body and the shape of the back body This is because there is a case where there is no difference between the two.

  In the disposable diaper having the gear extension region of the present invention, the liquid-impermeable leak-proof sheet is arranged between the absorber and the exterior sheet so as to cover the area where the absorber exists, and the size thereof is large. The thickness is not particularly limited, and the liquid-impermeable leak-proof sheet may be disposed on the entire surface of the exterior sheet.

  Moreover, in the disposable diaper which has the gear extending | stretching area | region of this invention, it is preferable that a liquid-impermeable leak-proof sheet exists in a part of gear extending area | region, Preferably all the gear extending | stretching areas. That is, the gear extension region is a pair of gear rolls that rotate while meshing a plurality of teeth arranged on the outer peripheral surfaces of the gear rolls. It is preferable to form by passing. As described above, the gear stretching is a non-uniform stretching that forms a high stretch region and a low stretch region on the sheet. In the high stretch region of the exterior sheet, the thickness is thin and excrement leaks. This is because the leakage of excrement can be prevented by the presence of a liquid-impermeable leak-proof sheet in the highly stretched region.

  In the disposable diaper having the gear extension region of the present invention, the embodiment has been described in which the exterior sheet is formed from a single material, but the exterior sheet may be formed from a single material, Or you may form from the several raw material.
