2. Description of the Related Art Heretofore, in this type of wearing article, there has been known a back sheet which uses a laminate sheet of a non-woven fabric forming its outer side surface and a plastic film forming its inner side surface. Has been. Since this back sheet is made of a non-woven fabric on its outer surface, it has the advantages of having a cloth-like feel and a good appearance as compared with a back sheet formed of only a plastic film.

However, the back sheet has sufficient moisture permeability even if the plastic film has moisture permeability in which resin is mixed with inorganic particles to form a sheet and stretched to form fine pores. Moreover, since the non-woven fabric is integrally and tightly bonded to the entire surface of the article, it does not have sufficient air permeability to alleviate or suppress the stuffiness inside the article that occurs in a worn state.

Further, the back sheet has a higher rigidity than that formed of the plastic film alone, but when a leg elastic member is attached to such a back sheet, the rigidity is increased. The extensional stress of the elastic member may be hindered by that much, and thus the sealability of the wearer around the leg may be reduced.

The object of the present invention is to achieve breathability of an article and to improve leg elasticity even though the back sheet is composed of a laminate sheet of a non-woven fabric forming its outer side surface and a plastic film forming its inner side surface. The purpose is to prevent the elongation stress of the member from being significantly hindered.

As shown in FIG. 2, the article 1 comprises a stretchable and water-permeable topsheet 6 formed from a nonwoven fabric, and a stretchable and water-permeable backsheet 7 formed from the same nonwoven fabric in the same shape and size. Matt or sheet-shaped water absorbent core 8
And the elastic and impermeable intermediate sheet 9 formed from a plastic film having a larger elastic strength than the top and back sheets 6 and 7 and having a width narrower than those of the legs and waist elastic members 4 and 5. There is. Front and back areas 10 of the top and back sheets 6 and 7,
Notched edges 13 and 14 for the leg rotation are formed on both side edges of the crotch region 12 located between 11. The width of the intermediate sheet 9, that is, the dimension between the opposite side edges of the intermediate sheet 9 is determined by the cutout edges 13 or 14 of the top and back sheets 6 and 7.
The width of the intermediate sheet 9 is set to be substantially equal to the distance between the top and back sheets 6 and 7 in the front and rear areas 10 and 11 by the depth dimension of the cutout formed by the cutout edge 13 or 14. So that they are spaced apart from each other, they are intermittently joined to the upper surface of the back sheet 7 by a hot melt adhesive or fusion, and the core 8 formed on the upper surface of the intermediate sheet 9 is narrower than this. It is joined intermittently by a melt type adhesive or welding. The joining of the core 8 and the intermediate sheet 9 and the joining of the top sheet 6 and the intermediate sheet 9 are made by a number of dot-shaped joining means 16, which may be a number of interrupted lines of suitable length. .
As shown in FIG. 3, similarly, the back sheet 7 and the intermediate sheet 9 are also joined by a large number of dot-shaped joining means 17, which may also be a plurality of intermittent lines of an appropriate length. .
