Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A sanitary napkin which has a fluff layer sandwiched between carrier layers, the sandwich being C-folded to provide a lined channel on one side of the sandwich which encourages more even, rapid, and complete dispersion of body fluids.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view partially broken away of a sanitary napkin produced according to the teachings of this invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view also broken away to illustrate I the type of diaper insert produceable according to the invention.
  • the numeral designates generally-a sanitary napkin produced and constructed according to the teachings of this invention.
  • the core of the napkin is a fluff layer 11 which has been folded on itself into a C configuration. Adjacent the bight portion 12 of the C configuration is positioned a barrier sheet 13, advantageously polyethylene. The width of the barrier sheet 13 is less than that of the unfolded fluff layer 11.
  • the fluff layer 11 and barrier sheet 13 are enclosed within a carrier web 14 which, before C-folding, makes up a sandencourages more even, rapid, and complete dispersion of body fluids.
  • the C-fold channel Ch (still referring to FIG.
  • a sanitary napkin comprising a plurality of elongated layers of flexible material arranged to lay flat including upper and lower exterior layers constructed of non-woven material and serving to confine a plurality of interior layers, two interior layers constructed of soft absorbable material and being relatively thicker than the other layers, said two interior layers being united along the longitudinal edges thereof with one of the interior layers having an access space along the longitudinal median whereby said two interior layers have essentially a C configuration in transverse section to provide a channel for dispersion of fluid, a pair of intermediate layers of absorbent material, one of the intermediate layers being interposed between the upper exterior layer and one of the interior layers and the other intermediate layer being interposed between the other interior layer and the lower exterior layer, and a pair of inner layers of absorbent material interposed between the two interior layers.
  • a sanitary napkin comprising an elongated pad of soft moisture-absorbent material, a carrier web of moisture-absorwich with the carrier web 14 providing the external layers and the fluff 11 providing the inner player. It will be noted by reference to FIG. 1 that the carrier web is overlapped on itself as at 15. Lastly, the C-folded sandwich is positioned within an enveloping outer wrap 16. This is overlapped on itself and longitudinally sealed together as at 17,
  • the pad and the carrier web being folded into a C-shape along a pair of spaced'apart parallel longitudinally extending lines to provide a lower pad portion and a pair of upper pad portions superposed on the lower pad portion to form a longitudinally extending channel, the upper pad portions and the lower portion being of approximately the same thickness, the upper pad portions. being separated from the lower pad poition by a double thickness of the carrier web, and an outer wrap surrounding the C-folded pad and carrier web and extending across said channel.
  • each of the upper pad portions includes a longitudinally extendinginwardly facing longitudinal edge spaced from the longitudinal edge of the other pad portion to provide a relatively narrow longitudinally extending access slot for the channel.
