Abstract
An enhanced flexibility fastener product (30) has a base (35) and hook elements (34a, 34b, 34c) integrally molded with and extending from the base (35). Hump-shaped formations (36a, 36b, 36c) (referred to as 'rip stops'), that are integrally molded with base (35), are offset relative to the hook elements to reduce widthwise stiffness of the fastener product (30). The edge margins (31) of the fastener (30) are feathered in that they taper or otherwise reduce in thickness over an extended distance, preferably from at or near the hooks (34a, 34b, 34c) to the edge, resulting in a softer, less irritating fastener tape (30). Fasteners products according to the invention are particularly advantageous on disposable absorbent garments (10) such as diapers, sanitary napkins, and other articles of wear which come into contact with the user's skin.

7. The product of claim 1 or claim 2 wherein, for at least some of the rip-stops, lengthwise portions of the rip-stop footprint overlap lengthwise the footprints of two hook elements lengthwise adjacent to each other and lying in a row widthwise adjacent to said rip-stop.
8. The product of claim 7 wherein, for at least some of the rip-stops, the rip-stop is connected to one or both of the two hook elements lengthwise adjacent to each other.
9. The product of claim 7 wherein, for at least some of the rip-stops, equal lengthwise portions of the rip-stop footprint overlap lengthwise the footprints of the two hook elements lengthwise adjacent to each other.
10. The product of claim 9 wherein, for at least some of the rip-stops, the rip-stop is connected to one or both of said hook elements lengthwise adjacent to each other.
11. A strip-form molded plastic product formed in a running length, said product comprising a base, a broad surface of said base having fastener structures exposed for engagement with cooperating fastening structures to complete a fastening; the opposite broad surface of said base being exposed to be attached to a carrier strip or garment; said base having at least one exposed, longitudinal edge at which it was previously joined during molding to the base of another such product;
said base having a feathered selvedge terminating at said longitudinal edge, the thickness of said selvedge gradually decreasing toward said edge over most of the width of said selvedge, said selvedge being devoid of functional structures.
12. The product of claim 11 wherein said product is a hook fastener for use in hook-and-loop fastening systems, said product further comprising a multiplicity of hook elements integrally molded with and rising from said base, said hook elements being arranged in rows extending lengthwise along a surface of said base.
13. The product of claim 12, further comprising a multiplicity of rip-stops integrally molded with and rising from said base, said rip-stops being arranged in rows extending lengthwise along said surface of said base, said rows of rip-stops being interspersed among said rows of hook elements.
14. The product of claim 1 or claim 11 wherein the thickness of said base decreases in the region of said feathered selvedge edges at an overall rate of less than or equal to about 0.5 in 1.
15. The product of claim 14 wherein the thickness of said base decreases in the region of said feathered selvedge edges at an overall rate of between about 0.05 in 1 and about 0.5 in 1.
16. The product of claim 14 wherein the thickness of said base decreases in the region of said feathered selvedge edges at an overall rate of about 0.05 in 1.
17. The product of claim 14 wherein the thickness of said base decreases in the region of said feathered selvedge edges at an overall rate of about 0.3 in 1.
18. A molded plastic product having enhanced conformability and skin comfort, said product comprising a base and a multiplicity of projections rising from said base, said projections disposed in a checkerboard fashion and being connected to each other at corners thereof so as to form a lattice of projections extending from said base, said base being of a nominal thickness between substantially all connecting projections.
19. An item of wear comprising a garment, and a molded plastic hook fastener for use in securing said garment on the body of a user of said garment, said fastener comprising a base; a multiplicity of hook elements integrally molded with and rising from said base, said hook elements being arranged in rows extending lengthwise along a surface of said base and each of said hook elements defining a footprint on said surface where each said hook element joins said base; and a multiplicity of rip-stops integrally molded with and rising from said base, said rip-stops being arranged in rows extending lengthwise along said surface of said base and each of said rip- stops defining a footprint on said surface where each said rip-stop joins said base, said rows of rip-stops being interspersed among said rows of hook elements;
at least many of said rip-stops being offset in the lengthwise direction relative to hook elements in widthwise adjacent rows such that a substantial lengthwise portion of the footprints of the respective offset rip-stops and adjacent hook elements do not overlap lengthwise.
20. An item of wear comprising a garment, and a molded plastic hook fastener for use in securing said garment on the body of a user of said garment, said fastener comprising a base having one or more feathered selvedge edges, devoid of functional structures or members, in which the thickness of said base decreases gradually, from a nominal value to a minimum value, over most of the width of said feathered selvedge edges.
21. The item of wear of claim 19 or 20 wherein said item is an article of sanitary wear.
22. The item of wear of claim 21 wherein said item is a disposable absorbent garment.
23. An apparatus for making molded plastic hook fasteners, said apparatus comprising a molding roller comprised of an alternating stack of molding rings and spacer rings, said molding rings having hook-forming cavities extending inward from peripheral surfaces thereof and said spacer rings having rip-stop-forming cavities extending inward from peripheral surfaces thereof, said molding rings and said spacer rings being disposed relative to each other such that said hook- forming cavities and said rip-stop-forming cavities are circumferentially offset relative to each other.
24. An apparatus for forming a strip-form molded plastic item, said apparatus comprising a molding roller having radially enlarged, depression-forming enlargements, the diameter of said molding roller decreasing gradually on each side of the center of each enlargement, over most of the distance from the centers of said enlargements to the outer edges of said enlargements, from a maximum value at the centers of said enlargements to a nominal value at the edges of said en1argements.
25. The apparatus of claim 24, wherein said strip-form molded plastic item is a hook fastener for use in hook and loop fastening systems, said molding roller comprising an alternating stack of molding rings and spacer rings, said molding rings having hook-forming cavities extending inward from peripheral surfaces thereof.
