Description

この発明は、使い捨てのおむつを一例とする着用物品に関し、より詳しくは、前後胴回り域の間に連結部材が介在している前記着用物品に関する。   The present invention relates to a wearing article taking a disposable diaper as an example, and more specifically to the wearing article in which a connecting member is interposed between front and rear waist areas.

着用物品が前後胴胴回り域を有し、これら両胴回り域がこれらとは別体の連結部材を介して連結されているものは公知である。   It is well known that the wearing article has front and rear waistline regions, and these both waistline regions are connected via a separate connecting member.

例えば、特開2004−121389号公報(特許文献1)に開示された使い捨ておむつは、腹側部と背側部との間にこれら両部とは別体の連結部材である連結シートが介在している。連結シートには胴回り方向に展開可能な折畳み部が形成され、その折畳み部は、折畳み部を一時的に閉じておくことのできる再使用可能な止着部を有している。おむつを着用させるときには、折畳み部を広げておき、おむつに脚を通してから折畳み部を閉じ、止着部を使って折畳み部の閉じた状態を維持することができる。おむつを脱がせるときには、折畳み部を広げることによって、おむつを引き下げることが容易になる。連結シートは、その内面が前後胴回り域それぞれの内面に接合している。おむつの前後方向において、連結シートは二つに折り重ねられている場合と、蛇腹折りにされている場合とがある。   For example, in a disposable diaper disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-121389 (Patent Document 1), a connection sheet that is a separate connection member is interposed between the abdomen and the back. ing. The connecting sheet is formed with a foldable portion that can be deployed in the waistline direction, and the foldable portion has a reusable fastening portion that can temporarily close the foldable portion. When the diaper is worn, the folding part is widened, the folding part is closed after passing the leg through the diaper, and the closed state of the folding part can be maintained using the fastening part. When removing the diaper, it is easy to pull down the diaper by widening the folding part. The inner surface of the connecting sheet is bonded to the inner surfaces of the front and rear waist regions. In the front-rear direction of the diaper, the connecting sheet may be folded in two or accordion-folded.

特開2008−12115号公報(特許文献2)に開示されたパンツ型着用物品は、連結部材として前後胴回り域の側部どうしを剥離可能かつ再結合可能につなぐ連結手段を有する。連結手段には、胴回り方向においてZ字形に折り重ねられたものと逆Z字形に折り重ねられたものとがあり、Z字形に折り重ねられたものはZ字形における頂辺が前後胴回り域の一方の内面に剥離不能に取り付けられており、Z字形における中間辺と底辺とは互いに接合して一体になっているとともに底辺における外面が前後胴回り域のもう一方の内面に対してファスナ部材を介して剥離可能かつ再結合可能に取り付けられている。   The pants-type wearing article disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2008-12115 (Patent Document 2) has connecting means for connecting the side portions of the front and rear waist regions so as to be peelable and recombinable as a connecting member. The connecting means includes those folded in a Z-shape in the waist direction and those folded in an inverted Z-shape, and in the Z-shape, the top side of the Z-shape is one of the front and rear waist areas. The intermediate side and the bottom side of the Z-shape are joined to each other so as to be integrated with each other, and the outer surface of the bottom side is connected to the other inner surface of the front and rear waist region via a fastener member. Removably and recombinably attached.

前記従来技術における着用物品は、蛇腹折りの状態やZ字形に折畳まれていた連結部材を伸展させて着用したときに、その連結部材が着用者の胴回り側部に密着する。加えて、連結部材は強度上の必要性や形状を保持する必要性等の理由によって、密度の高い不織布やプラスチックフィルムによって形成されることが多い。ところが、そのような連結部材が密着している部分の肌は、それを通気性のよい状態に置くことが難しく、蒸れ易いということがある。   When the wearing article in the prior art is worn by extending a connecting member that has been folded into a bellows-folded state or a Z-shape, the connecting member is in close contact with the waistline side of the wearer. In addition, the connecting member is often formed of a high density non-woven fabric or plastic film for reasons such as the need for strength and the need to maintain the shape. However, the skin of the portion where such a connecting member is in close contact may be difficult to put in a state of good air permeability and easily stuffy.

この発明では、連結部材に起因するこのような問題を解消することが可能な着用物品の提供を課題にしている。   This invention makes it the subject to provide the wearing article which can eliminate such a problem resulting from a connection member.

前記課題を解決するために、この発明が対象とするのは、前胴回り域と後胴回り域との側縁部どうしが連結部材を介してつながる着用物品である。   In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention is directed to a wearing article in which side edge portions of a front waistline region and a rear waistline region are connected to each other via a connecting member.

かかる着用物品において、この発明が特徴とするところは、以下のとおりである。前記連結部材は、前記着用物品の肌と向かい合う内面と前記内面の反対面である外面とを有するとともに、前記前胴回り域と前記後胴回り域とにつながる前後方向と前記前後方向に直交する上下方向とを有し、前記前後方向において重なり合うように折畳まれた状態にある。折畳まれている前記連結部材は、前記前後方向と前記上下方向とのうちの少なくとも前記前後方向において互いに離間する複数の部位で圧搾されていて前記内面に隆起部が形成されている。折畳まれている前記連結部材が前記前後方向へ伸展した状態では、前記内面に形成された前記隆起部の頂部が前記肌に向かって突出した状態にあって前記前後方向において弧を描いている。   In such a wearing article, the present invention is characterized as follows. The connecting member has an inner surface facing the skin of the wearing article and an outer surface opposite to the inner surface, and a front-rear direction connected to the front waistline region and the rear waistline region, and a vertical direction orthogonal to the front-rear direction. And is folded so as to overlap in the front-rear direction. The connecting member that is folded is squeezed at a plurality of portions that are separated from each other in at least the front-rear direction of the front-rear direction and the up-down direction, and a raised portion is formed on the inner surface. In a state where the folded connection member extends in the front-rear direction, the top of the raised portion formed on the inner surface protrudes toward the skin, and an arc is drawn in the front-rear direction. .

この発明の実施態様の一つにおいて、前記前後方向において隣り合う前記隆起部は、前記頂部どうしが3〜15mm離間している。   In one embodiment of the present invention, the ridges adjacent in the front-rear direction are spaced apart from each other by 3 to 15 mm.

この発明の実施態様の一つにおいて、折畳まれている前記連結部材は、前記上下方向において互いに離間する複数の部位で圧搾されていて前記内面に隆起部が形成されており、前記上下方向において隣り合う前記隆起部は、前記頂部どうしが3〜15mm離間している。   In one embodiment of the present invention, the folded connection member is compressed at a plurality of parts spaced apart from each other in the vertical direction, and a raised portion is formed on the inner surface. Adjacent ridges are spaced 3-15 mm apart from each other.

この発明の実施態様の一つにおいて、前記連結部材が前記前後方向へ伸展した状態にある前記着用物品では、前記前胴回り域の側縁部と前記後胴回り域の側縁部とが前記前後方向において離間していて、これら両側縁部の間に前記連結部材の一部分が介在し、前記一部分の前記内面には前記肌に向かって突出した状態の前記頂部が形成されている。   In one embodiment of the present invention, in the wearing article in which the connecting member extends in the front-rear direction, a side edge portion of the front waistline region and a side edge portion of the rear waistline region are in the front-rear direction. And a part of the connecting member is interposed between both side edge parts, and the top part in a state of projecting toward the skin is formed on the inner surface of the part.

この発明の実施態様の一つにおいて、前記頂部が前記肌に向かって突出した状態にある前記隆起部がドット状のものであって、前記前後方向と前記上下方向とにおいて互いに離間するように形成されている。   In one embodiment of the present invention, the raised portion in a state in which the top portion protrudes toward the skin is dot-shaped, and is formed so as to be separated from each other in the front-rear direction and the vertical direction. Has been.

この発明の実施態様の一つにおいて、前記頂部が前記肌に向かって突出した状態にある前記隆起部は、その平面形状が前記上下方向に長さ方向を有する長円形である。   In one embodiment of the present invention, the raised portion in a state in which the top portion protrudes toward the skin is an oval shape whose planar shape has a length direction in the vertical direction.

この発明の実施態様の一つにおいて、前記頂部が画く前記弧の半径は、0.5〜2mmの範囲にある。   In one embodiment of the present invention, the radius of the arc defined by the top is in the range of 0.5 to 2 mm.

この発明の実施態様の一つにおいて、前記隆起部の前記頂部が前記肌に接触したときに、隣り合う前記隆起部どうしの間には、前記前後方向と前記上下方向とのうちの少なくとも前記上下方向へ延びていて前記内面と前記肌とが非接触状態にある通気路を形成可能である。   In one embodiment of the present invention, when the top portion of the raised portion contacts the skin, at least the upper and lower directions in the front-rear direction and the up-down direction are provided between the adjacent raised portions. It is possible to form an air passage that extends in a direction and is in a non-contact state between the inner surface and the skin.

この発明に係る着用物品は、前胴回り域の側縁部と後胴回り域の側縁部とが連結部材を介してつながり、その連結部材には、前後方向において互いに離間するように圧搾部が形成されていて、その圧搾部が隆起部を形成している。その連結部材を前後方向へ伸展したときには、隆起部のうちの一部のものが着用物品の着用者の肌に向かって突出した状態になるから、連結部材は肌に対して密着し難くなって、肌との間に間隙を形成する。その間隙の存在によって、肌を通気性のよい状態におくことが可能になる。   In the wearing article according to the present invention, the side edge portion of the front waistline region and the side edge portion of the rear waistline region are connected via a connecting member, and the pressing member is formed in the connecting member so as to be separated from each other in the front-rear direction. The squeezed part forms a raised part. When the connecting member is extended in the front-rear direction, a part of the raised portion protrudes toward the skin of the wearer of the wearing article, so that the connecting member is difficult to adhere to the skin. Form a gap between the skin. The presence of the gap makes it possible to keep the skin in a state of good ventilation.

It has a rear end 19 that is connected. Positioned between the front end portion 18 and the rear end portion 19 is an intermediate portion 20 of the connecting member 6 and extends in the lateral direction B from each of the side edge portions 8 and 9.

連結部材6に形成されている圧搾部31は、連結部材6を作るためのシート片10(図6参照)を図の如くに折畳み、そのシート片10を図の下方から上方に向かって局部的に圧搾することにより形成されたものであり、圧搾部31のうちで前方部分13に形成されている圧搾部31fは連結部材6の内面16から突出した隆起部となるように形成され、後方部分14に形成されている圧搾部31rは連結部材6の外面17から突出した隆起部となるように形成されていて、圧搾部31fと圧搾部31rとは互いに重なり合っている。シート片10は、熱可塑性合成繊維の不織布や熱可塑性合成樹脂のフィルム等の熱可塑性合成樹脂によって形成されていて、2g/cmの質量下における厚さが0.1〜1mmの範囲にあるもので、重なり合った圧搾部31fと31rとは、シート片10に含まれた繊維どうしが機械的に交絡するか或いは溶着することによって、またはシート片に含まれた熱可塑性合成製樹脂のフィルムどうしが溶着することによって、連結部材6の折畳まれた状態を一時的に保つための仮止め手段として作用している。その仮止めの強さの程度は、圧搾部31を得るための後記エンボス加工(図6参照)における温度、圧力、圧搾時間等の条件によって調整することが可能で、図1のおむつ1では、それを着用するために連結部材6を前後方向Aへ伸展させるように前後胴回り域2,3を引っ張ると、その仮止めが容易に解けるように仮止めの強さが調整されている。 The pressing part 31 formed in the connecting member 6 folds the sheet piece 10 (see FIG. 6) for making the connecting member 6 as shown in the figure, and the sheet piece 10 is locally extended from the lower side to the upper side in the figure. The compressed portion 31f formed in the front portion 13 of the compressed portion 31 is formed to be a raised portion protruding from the inner surface 16 of the connecting member 6, and the rear portion. The pressing part 31r formed in 14 is formed to be a raised part protruding from the outer surface 17 of the connecting member 6, and the pressing part 31f and the pressing part 31r overlap each other. The sheet piece 10 is formed of a thermoplastic synthetic resin such as a nonwoven fabric of thermoplastic synthetic fibers or a film of thermoplastic synthetic resin, and the thickness under a mass of 2 g / cm 2 is in the range of 0.1 to 1 mm. The overlapped compressed portions 31f and 31r are formed by mechanically interlacing or welding the fibers contained in the sheet piece 10, or between thermoplastic synthetic resin films contained in the sheet piece. As a result of welding, the connecting member 6 acts as a temporary fixing means for temporarily maintaining the folded state. The degree of the strength of the temporary fixing can be adjusted by conditions such as temperature, pressure, pressing time, etc. in post embossing (see FIG. 6) for obtaining the compressed portion 31, and in the diaper 1 of FIG. When the front and rear waist areas 2 and 3 are pulled so that the connecting member 6 extends in the front-rear direction A in order to wear it, the strength of the temporary fixing is adjusted so that the temporary fixing can be easily released.

図4は、図2のIV−IV線切断面を示す図であって、仮想線15は連結部材6の折曲線(図3参照)の位置を示し、仮想線40は、おむつ着用者の胴回りの肌の一部分を示している。前後方向Aへ伸展した状態の連結部材6において、連結部材6の一部分であって仮想線15よりも下方に位置する前方部分13では、隆起部を形成している圧搾部31fの頂部41fが着用者の肌に向かって突出している。また、連結部材6の一部分であって仮想線15よりも上方に位置する後方部分14では、隆起部を形成している圧搾部31rの頂部41rが、おむつ1の外方に向かって突出している。図2において明らかなように、圧搾部31は、前後方向Aと上下方向Cとにおいて間欠的に形成されているから、その圧搾部31のうちの圧搾部31fにおける頂部41fが図4の如く肌40に接触する一方、隣り合う頂部41fと41fとの間の部分が肌40から離間しているときには、連結部材6のうちの少なくとも前方部分13と肌40との間に上下方向Cに延びる通気路42と、前後方向Aに延びる通気路43(図2参照)とが形成される。これら通気路42,43は、おむつ1を着用しているときに連結部材6の内側において肌が蒸れる、という問題の解消に役立つ。このように、圧搾部31は、連結部材6の内面が隆起するように形成されている場合に、肌の蒸れを防ぐことにおいて優れている。   FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the section taken along the line IV-IV in FIG. 2, wherein the imaginary line 15 indicates the position of the folding line (see FIG. 3) of the connecting member 6, and the imaginary line 40 indicates the waistline of the diaper wearer Shows a part of the skin. In the connecting member 6 in the state of extending in the front-rear direction A, the top portion 41f of the squeezed portion 31f forming the raised portion is worn by the front portion 13 which is a part of the connecting member 6 and is located below the imaginary line 15. Protrudes toward the person's skin. Moreover, in the rear part 14 which is a part of the connection member 6 and located above the imaginary line 15, the top part 41 r of the squeezing part 31 r forming the raised part protrudes outward of the diaper 1. . As clearly shown in FIG. 2, since the squeezing part 31 is formed intermittently in the front-rear direction A and the up-down direction C, the top part 41f of the squeezing part 31f of the squeezing part 31 is the skin as shown in FIG. 40, while the portion between the adjacent top portions 41f and 41f is separated from the skin 40, the ventilation extending in the vertical direction C between at least the front portion 13 of the connecting member 6 and the skin 40. A passage 42 and a ventilation passage 43 (see FIG. 2) extending in the front-rear direction A are formed. These ventilation paths 42 and 43 are useful for solving the problem that the skin is steamed inside the connecting member 6 when the diaper 1 is worn. Thus, when the pressing part 31 is formed so that the inner surface of the connection member 6 protrudes, it is excellent in preventing the skin from becoming stuffy.

通気路42,43を形成することのできるドット状の圧搾部31fは、連結部材6の面積2500mm当たりについて25〜120個の割合で形成し、前方部分13において内面16から頂部41までの高さを0.3〜2mmの範囲におさめることが好ましい。圧搾部31fの個数が120個を越える場合には、通気路42および/または43の幅が狭くなりすぎるので好ましくない。また、圧搾部31fの個数が25に満たない場合には、通気路42および/または43の幅が大きくなりすぎて、隆起部31fと31fとの間で肌が連結部材6に接触し、実質的な意味において、通気路の幅を狭くすることになりかねない。圧搾部31fにおける頂部41までの高さが0.3mm未満である場合には、やはり実質的な意味において、連結部材6と肌40との間に通気路42および/または43を形成することが難しくなる。また、頂部41までの高さが2mmを超える場合には、連結部材6を使用しているときに、頂部41の肌40に対する食い込みが深くなりすぎることがある。頂部41の肌40への食い込みを防ぐためにはまた、おむつ1の前後方向Aと上下方向Bとのうちの少なくとも一方において頂部41が弧を画いていることが好ましい。その弧は、半径が0.5〜1.5mmの範囲にあることが好ましい。 The dot-shaped compressed portions 31f that can form the air passages 42 and 43 are formed at a rate of 25 to 120 pieces per area of 2500 mm 2 of the connecting member 6, and the height from the inner surface 16 to the top portion 41 in the front portion 13. The thickness is preferably within a range of 0.3 to 2 mm. When the number of the compressed parts 31f exceeds 120, the width of the air passages 42 and / or 43 becomes too narrow, which is not preferable. In addition, when the number of the compressed parts 31f is less than 25, the width of the air passages 42 and / or 43 becomes too large, and the skin contacts the connecting member 6 between the raised parts 31f and 31f. In a typical sense, the width of the air passage may be reduced. In the case where the height of the compressed portion 31f to the top 41 is less than 0.3 mm, the air passages 42 and / or 43 may be formed between the connecting member 6 and the skin 40 in a substantial sense. It becomes difficult. Moreover, when the height to the top part 41 exceeds 2 mm, when using the connection member 6, the biting with respect to the skin 40 of the top part 41 may become deep too much. In order to prevent the top 41 from biting into the skin 40, the top 41 preferably forms an arc in at least one of the front-rear direction A and the vertical direction B of the diaper 1. The arc preferably has a radius in the range of 0.5 to 1.5 mm.

図5は、実施態様の一例を示す図4と同様な図である。図示例の連結部材6における圧搾部31fの頂部41には、通気性の開孔51が形成されている。このような開孔51は、連結部材6が不織布で形成されている場合のその不織布における繊維間隙であってもよい、連結部材6を形成しているシート片を加工することによって得られる開孔であってもよいが、繊維間隙よりも大きな孔径を有する開孔であることが好ましい。開孔51はまた、孔径が0.3〜1.5mmの範囲にあることが好ましい。連結部材6は、通気路42,43を有することに加えて、開孔51を有することによって、通気性において特に優れたものになり得る。開孔51による連結部材6の通気性の向上は、開孔51が連結部材6の中央部6a(図2,4参照)に形成されていて、前胴回り域2や後胴回り域3に覆われていない場合に顕著になる。 FIG. 5 is a view similar to FIG. 4 showing an example of the embodiment. A breathable hole 51 is formed at the top 41 of the compressed portion 31f of the connecting member 6 in the illustrated example. Such openings 51 may be a fiber interstices in the non-woven fabric when the coupling member 6 is formed with a nonwoven fabric, an open obtained by processing a sheet piece forming the connecting member 6 Although it may be a hole, an opening having a larger diameter than the fiber gap is preferable. The opening 51 preferably has a hole diameter in the range of 0.3 to 1.5 mm. The connection member 6 can be particularly excellent in air permeability by having the opening 51 in addition to the air passages 42 and 43. The improvement in the air permeability of the connecting member 6 by the opening 51 is that the opening 51 is formed in the central portion 6a (see FIGS. 2 and 4) of the connecting member 6 and is covered by the front waistline region 2 and the rear waistline region 3. If not, it becomes noticeable.

図1〜5に例示の連結部材6において、圧搾部31fにおける頂部41の高さおよび開孔51の孔径を測定するには、測定の対象とする連結部材6についての10〜30倍の拡大画像を使用する。頂部41の高さを測定するときに、圧搾部31fの断面を観察することが好ましい場合には、液体窒素によって冷却した連結部材6を鋭利な刃物で切断することによってその断面を得ることができる。また、いずれの測定においても、連結部材6を形成している繊維の毛羽立ちがその測定を困難なものにするときには、その毛羽立ちを除外した状態の画像を想定して測定することができる。   In the connecting member 6 illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 5, to measure the height of the top 41 and the hole diameter of the opening 51 in the compressed portion 31 f, an enlarged image of 10 to 30 times the connecting member 6 to be measured. Is used. When it is preferable to observe the cross section of the compressed portion 31f when measuring the height of the top portion 41, the cross section can be obtained by cutting the connecting member 6 cooled by liquid nitrogen with a sharp blade. . In any measurement, when the fluff of the fiber forming the connecting member 6 makes the measurement difficult, the measurement can be performed assuming an image in which the fluff is excluded.

図6は、連結部材6を得るための素材であるシート片10に圧搾部31を形成する工程、換言するとシート片10にエンボス加工を施す工程の一部を示す図である。図6には、上下運動する多数のエンボス加工用ピン71のうちの一部のものと、アンビル73と、ピン71とアンビル73との間にセットされたシート片10とが示されている。ただし、ピン71は上昇位置にあるものが実線で示され、下降の途中にあってアンビル73に接近しているものが仮想線で示されている。また、ピン71とアンビル73との間には二つに折り重ねられたシート片10が仮想線で示されている。そのシート片10は、図6においてエンボス加工を施された後に適宜の形状に裁断されておむつ1に取り付けられると連結部材6となるものである。アンビル73には、連結部材6に形成すべき圧搾部31の数に対応する数の円形凹部72が形成され、その凹部72は直径dを有している。ピン71は、凹部72の数に対応する本数が用意されていて、直径dを有している。ピン71の先端74は、図示例の如く円錐形となり得る他に、球面状にもなり得る。直径dは直径dよりも小さく、直径dと直径dとの差は、シート片10をピン71によって凹部72へ押入し、圧搾しようとするときの深さに基づいて決められる。シート片10を凹部72において圧搾するときに、ピン71の先端が円錐形であると、シート片10に形成される圧搾部31の頂部41に開孔51を形成することが容易である。また、ピン71の先端が球面状であると圧搾部31の頂部41は開孔51のない球面状のものになり易い。シート片10は、球面状の頂部41を形成した後に、開孔51を形成するための二次的な加工を施すこともできる。ピン71とアンビル73とのうちの少なくともピン71は、シート片10に繊維やフィルムの形態で含まれる熱可塑性合成樹脂を軟化させ、圧搾部31を容易に形成することができる程度にまで加熱されていることが好ましい。 FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a part of the process of forming the pressing portion 31 on the sheet piece 10 which is a material for obtaining the connecting member 6, in other words, the process of embossing the sheet piece 10. FIG. 6 shows a part of a large number of embossing pins 71 that move up and down, an anvil 73, and a sheet piece 10 set between the pin 71 and the anvil 73. However, the pin 71 that is in the raised position is indicated by a solid line, and the pin 71 that is in the middle of being lowered and is approaching the anvil 73 is indicated by a virtual line. In addition, the sheet piece 10 folded in two is indicated by a virtual line between the pin 71 and the anvil 73. When the sheet piece 10 is embossed in FIG. 6 and cut into an appropriate shape and attached to the diaper 1, the sheet piece 10 becomes the connecting member 6. The anvil 73 is connected number of circular recesses 72 corresponding to the number of compression portions 31 to be formed on the member 6 is formed, the recess 72 has a diameter d 2. Pins 71, they are prepared is the number corresponding to the number of recesses 72 has a diameter d 1. The tip 74 of the pin 71 can be conical as shown in the illustrated example, and can also be spherical. The diameter d 1 is smaller than the diameter d 2, the difference between the diameter d 1 and a diameter d 2, and pushed into the recess 72 of the sheet piece 10 by pins 71, is determined based on the depth of the case to be squeezed. When the sheet piece 10 is squeezed in the recess 72, if the tip of the pin 71 has a conical shape, it is easy to form the opening 51 in the top 41 of the squeezed part 31 formed in the sheet piece 10. Further, when the tip of the pin 71 is spherical, the top 41 of the compressed portion 31 tends to be spherical without the opening 51. The sheet piece 10 can be subjected to secondary processing for forming the opening 51 after the spherical top 41 is formed. At least the pin 71 of the pin 71 and the anvil 73 is heated to such an extent that the thermoplastic synthetic resin contained in the form of fiber or film in the sheet piece 10 can be softened and the compressed portion 31 can be easily formed. It is preferable.
