  • Patent Document 2 discloses an absorbent article provided with a vertically long projecting portion surrounded by a concave portion on a skin contact surface.
  • the protruding portion is raised to make it easy to adhere to the excretory portion of the wearer, and the concave portion surrounding the protruding portion dams the liquid to prevent diffusion to the surroundings.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un article absorbant comprenant une feuille de dessus perméable aux liquides (3), positionnée sur la surface côté peau, une feuille de dessous (2) positionnée sur la surface côté vêtement, et une couche d'absorption (4) positionnée entre elles. Des premières (11) et secondes (12) sections de contact pression, où la couche d'absorption, et la feuille de dessus au moins, sont comprimées, s'étendent le long de l'article absorbant. Les premières sections de contact pression sont disposées symétriquement par rapport à la ligne centrale longitudinale (Oy-Oy) de l'article absorbant et définissent une section centrale d'absorption (5) entre les deux contenant une couche d'absorption. Les secondes sections de contact pression sont symétriquement disposées par rapport à la ligne centrale longitudinale et sont espacées vers l'extérieur à partir des premières sections de contact pression. Lorsque la section d'absorption centrale est comprimée transversalement par une force extérieure, les sections élastiques de récupération (6) définies entre les premières et les secondes sections de contact pression adjacentes formant des paires, peuvent appliquer une force de récupération dirigée contre la force de compression.
