Description

Hygiene-Tampon mit Rückholbändchen Beschreibung Hygiene tampon with return ribbon Description
Zum Auffangen des Menstruationsblutes verwenden Frauen einen Tampon, der zu diesem Zweck in die Scheide eingeführt und nach gewisser Zeit wieder entfernt wird. Der Tampon ist bekannterweise mit einem Bändchen versehen, mit Hilfe dessen er aus der Scheide entfernt werden kann. Das Rückholbändchen besteht bei den bekannten und im Handel erhältlichen Tampons aus Baumwolle. Die Baumwollfaser besitzt in dem relativ lockeren Faserverband des Bändchens eine grolleTo collect the menstrual blood, women use a tampon, which is inserted into the vagina for this purpose and removed after a certain time. The tampon is known to be provided with a ribbon with which it can be removed from the vagina. The return ribbon is made of cotton in the known and commercially available tampons. The cotton fiber has a rumble in the relatively loose fiber structure of the ribbon
Saug- und Transportfähigkeit für Flüssigkeiten. Dadurch kann es dazu kommen, dass, wenn die Trägerin des Tampons sich in das Wasser eines Swimmingpools begibt, das mit Chlor oder anderen Chemikalien versetzt ist, diese Chemikalien über den Baumwollfaden in dieAbsorbency and transportability for liquids. As a result, if the wearer of the tampon goes into the water of a swimming pool that has been mixed with chlorine or other chemicals, these chemicals will pass through the cotton thread into the
Scheide und damit in den Blukreislauf transportiert werden, so dass eine Blutvergiftung oderVagina and thus transported into the bloodstream, causing blood poisoning or
Infektion die Folge sein kann.Infection may result.
Der Erfindung lag deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, diesen Übertragungsweg zu beseitigen und durch die Verwendung des Tampons bedingte gesundheitliche Risiken zu minimieren.The invention was therefore based on the object of eliminating this transmission path and minimizing health risks associated with the use of the tampon.
Die Lösung der Aufgabe erfolgt entsprechend den Merkmalen der Schutzansprüche.The task is solved according to the characteristics of the protection claims.
Erfindungsgemäß besteht das Rückholbändchen aus einem körperfreundlichenAccording to the return ribbon consists of a body-friendly
Kunstfasermaterial.Synthetic fiber material.
Da Kunstfasern im Gegensatz zu Naturfasern eine glatte Oberfläche aufweisen und somit als solche keine Flüssigkeit aufnehmen und weiterleiten, wird von dem erfindungsgemäß gestalteten Rückholbändchen das Risiko der Weiterleitung schädlicher Substanzen von außen in die Scheide beim Aufenthalt in Badegewässern, und damit das Risiko einer auf diesem Wege erfolgenden Blutvergiftung oder Infektion beseitigt.Since synthetic fibers, unlike natural fibers, have a smooth surface and therefore do not absorb and transmit any liquid as such, the return ribbon designed according to the invention increases the risk of harmful substances being passed on from outside into the vagina when staying in bathing water, and thus the risk of this blood poisoning or infection.
Außerdem wird verhindert, dass Menstruationsblut zu der Unterkleidung übertragen wird.It also prevents menstrual blood from being transferred to the undergarment.
Ais zusätzliche gesundheitserhaltende Maßnahme kann der Tampon vor dessen Einführung mit medizinisch wirksamen oder körperpflegenden Substanzen versehen werden. Damit es durch das Kunstfasermaterial des Rückholbändchens selbst nicht zu gesundheitliche Beeinträchtigungen kommt, wird hierfür ein körperfreundliches Material, z.B. Polyamid, gewählt. As an additional health-preserving measure, the tampon can be provided with medicinally effective or body-care substances before it is introduced. A body-friendly material is used for this, so that there is no health impairment due to the synthetic fiber material of the return ribbon itself. Polyamide.
