Abstract

PURPOSE:To make mass production of the throw-away pants of a relatively intricate structure having a pair of flaps rising to a user's skin side. CONSTITUTION:All the constituting blank materials of the pants are continuously transferred in a specified direction along the production line of the pants. The other continuous blank materials exclusive of a continuous blank material 109 for the back sheet of the pants and a continuous blank material 119 for the top sheet are laminated to constitute a continuous laminate including the flaps 16 and thereafter, this continuous laminate is cut to the transverse size of the individual pants to form laminate pieces. These laminate pieces are directionally turned by 90 deg. and are superposed on the continuous blank material 109 for the back sheet. The continuous blank material 119 for the top sheet is superposed thereon to constitute the final continuous laminate 128. This final continuous laminate is folded via its longitudinal center line 105 and the prescribed parts of the folded final continuous laminate are joined to delineate the individual pants and the pants are disconnected.

However, in order to prevent the excrement from leaking through the leg openings of the pants, elastic flaps are provided on both sides of the inner surface of the pants, and flaps that rise up toward the wearer's skin are provided. When manufacturing things, a difficult problem occurs, but the above-mentioned technology and other known technologies do not point out that there is a problem. This is rather natural in view of the fact that the above-mentioned technology is intended to have the basic structure which is not different from the conventionally well-known pants.

Here is a difficult problem. That is, in order to mass-produce disposable pants at a low cost, all the constituent materials of the pants are stacked while being transferred in the same direction as the pants manufacturing line, and, in the vicinity of the final process of the manufacturing, the process is performed up to that process. After folding the continuous laminated body through the center line in the longitudinal direction, the folded state is joined along the side edges to define the both side edges of the individual pants in the continuous laminated body. It is indispensable to construct a plurality of linked pants and separate each pants from the linked pants in the final process.However, when manufacturing pants with the flap, all of the pants are Such pants cannot be manufactured by transferring the components along the pants manufacturing line while directing the components in the same direction. This will be understood more clearly from the following description of the present invention.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The method of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems is, in a very simple manner, transferring all the constituent materials of a pants continuously in a certain direction along a pants manufacturing line. However, after the continuous material other than the continuous material for the back sheet and top sheet of the pants is laminated (however, including the absorbent panel that is formed in advance and spaced apart) to form a continuous laminated body including a flap, The continuous laminate is cut into width pieces of individual pants to form a laminate piece,
Set the laminated pieces to 9 in the moving direction of the continuous laminated body.
The final continuous laminated body is formed by stacking it on the continuous material for the back sheet by changing the direction by 0 degree, and stacking the top sheet on the upper surface thereof, and folding the final continuous laminated body through the center line in the longitudinal direction. Overlapping and joining the predetermined portions of the final continuous laminated body that has been folded to define and separate individual pants.

The material of the elastic member 11 for the leg opening described above, each of which is made up of three first A and first B continuous elastic members 111A and 111B, is stretched to a required ratio, and each of the first continuous webs 109 is stretched. The sine-curve-shaped supply is performed by arranging the elastic members along substantially half circumferences of the adhesive regions 120 and intersecting between the adjacent adhesive regions 120 to bond respective portions of the elastic members located in the adhesive regions 120. The portions of the elastic members thus bonded form an annular elastic portion 111b, and the other portions 111a of the first A and first B continuous elastic members 111A and 111B are located between the annular elastic portions, but at those positions. Since there is no adhesive applied, they loosen close to each other. However, a slight contracting force remains in the portion 111a, and although not shown, by cutting so as to be separated from each other on both sides of the adjacent annular elastic portions 111b and contracting (snapback) itself, It is possible not to lie between the annular elastic portions 111b.
