OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION
La presente invención pertenece al campo de los artículos absorbentes o pañales empleados para retener y absorber las pérdidas de orina.The present invention belongs to the field of absorbent articles or diapers used to retain and absorb urine losses.
El objeto de Ia invención se refiere al desarrollo de una barrera interna, que puede ser complementaria a los medios de retención y absorción de que consta el artículo, que impide Ia transferencia del líquido hacia zonas del cuerpo normalmente desprotegidas, así como refuerza Ia capacidad de retención de otras zonas evitando Ia migración del líquido, en especial cuando el artículo lleva largo tiempo mojado.The object of the invention relates to the development of an internal barrier, which can be complementary to the retention and absorption means of the article, which prevents the transfer of the liquid to normally unprotected areas of the body, as well as reinforces the ability to retention of other areas avoiding the migration of the liquid, especially when the article has been wet for a long time.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Es conocido el empleo de pañales destinados a un solo uso que están compuestos fundamentalmente por un núcleo absorbente sobre el que se encuentra una capa interna de tejido no tejido hidrófila en contacto con Ia piel, y una capa externa aislante de polietileno, que a su vez puede estar recubierta o no por otro tejido no tejido.It is known to use diapers intended for a single use that are mainly composed of an absorbent core on which an inner layer of hydrophilic nonwoven fabric is in contact with the skin, and an insulating outer layer of polyethylene, which in turn It may or may not be covered by other nonwoven fabric.
Otro elemento adicional que de modo general suelen incorporar los artículos absorbentes consisten en unas barreras antiescape laterales de tejido no tejido hidrófobo que impiden Ia salida lateral del líquido, en especial en Ia zona de Ia entrepierna. Estas barreras laterales se encuentran normalmente por un lado en contacto con Ia capa interna y por otro se
prolongan superiormente finalizando adheridas en sus dos extremos a Ia capa posterior impermeable.Another additional element that the absorbent articles usually incorporate consists of lateral antiscape barriers of hydrophobic non-woven fabric that prevent the lateral exit of the liquid, especially in the area of the crotch. These lateral barriers are normally on one side in contact with the inner layer and on the other side they extend superiorly ending adhering at its two ends to the waterproof back layer.
Normalmente Ia zona posterior y Ia zona anterior del pañal no están protegidas por las barreras laterales ya que el líquido es absorbido generalmente en Ia zona media por Ia capa interna de material hidrófilo y por el núcleo absorbente. Sin embargo se ha demostrado que si el pañal permanece largo tiempo mojado y para determinadas posturas del usuario, el líquido se puede llegar a transferir desde esa zona media y a través del núcleo absorbente hacia las zonas anterior y posterior.Normally, the posterior area and the anterior area of the diaper are not protected by the side barriers since the liquid is generally absorbed in the middle zone by the inner layer of hydrophilic material and the absorbent core. However, it has been shown that if the diaper remains wet for a long time and for certain user positions, the liquid can be transferred from that middle area and through the absorbent core to the anterior and posterior areas.
Esta circunstancia provoca en el usuario una sensación de humedad en correspondencia con estas zonas del pañal, humedad que puede incluso superar los extremos del pañal mojando Ia ropa del usuario.This circumstance causes in the user a sensation of humidity in correspondence with these areas of the diaper, humidity that can even overcome the ends of the diaper by wetting the user's clothes.
Asimismo se ha comprobado que, en el caso de que el pañal permanezca húmedo durante largo tiempo, las barreras laterales de material hidrófobo, que en condiciones normales evitan Ia salida del líquido, pueden ser sobrepasadas por el líquido, más concretamente el líquido puede llegar a atravesar por debajo de Ia zona de contacto entre Ia barrera lateral de tejido no tejido hidrófobo y Ia capa interna del tejido no tejido hidrófilo.It has also been found that, in the event that the diaper remains wet for a long time, the side barriers of hydrophobic material, which in normal conditions prevent the outflow of the liquid, can be exceeded by the liquid, more specifically the liquid can reach crossing below the contact zone between the lateral barrier of hydrophobic nonwoven fabric and the inner layer of hydrophilic nonwoven fabric.
DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓNDESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
El artículo absorbente para incontinencia de adultos e infantil que constituye el objeto de Ia presente invención incorpora una protección adicional a las convencionalmente incluidas en los pañales, descritas en el apartado anterior, que viene a resolver Ia problemática anteriormente expuesta de forma satisfactoria.The absorbent article for adult and child incontinence that constitutes the object of the present invention incorporates additional protection to those conventionally included in the diapers, described in the previous section, which resolves the problem previously described satisfactorily.
Más concretamente este artículo absorbente propone Ia
incorporación de al menos una barrera interna de material hidrófobo estratégicamente dispuesta para impedir las migraciones y/o fugas de líquido evitando su contacto con Ia piel.More specifically, this absorbent article proposes Ia incorporation of at least one internal barrier of hydrophobic material strategically arranged to prevent the migration and / or leakage of liquid avoiding its contact with the skin.
De acuerdo con una estructuración convencional el artículo está formado por un núcleo absorbente sobre el que se encuentra una capa interna de tejido no tejido en contacto con Ia piel, y una capa externa aislante, normalmente de polietileno, que a su vez puede estar recubierta o no por otro tejido no tejido.According to a conventional structuring, the article is formed by an absorbent core on which an inner layer of non-woven fabric is in contact with the skin, and an insulating outer layer, usually of polyethylene, which in turn can be coated or not for other nonwoven fabric.
A partir de esta estructuración básica Ia presente invención contempla Ia incorporación de Ia mencionada barrera interna, que se prolonga en anchura, preferentemente constante, a ambos lados del borde perimetral del núcleo siguiendo Ia trayectoria del mismo completa o parcialmente en uno o varios tramos, constituyéndose en configuración envolvente de dicho borde perimetral.From this basic structuring, the present invention contemplates the incorporation of the aforementioned internal barrier, which extends in width, preferably constant, on both sides of the perimeter edge of the core following the trajectory thereof completely or partially in one or more sections, constituting in envelope configuration of said perimeter edge.
Esta barrera interna dispone uno de sus lados laterales externo al núcleo y en contacto con Ia cara interior de Ia capa externa, a continuación se prolonga con inclinación ascendente, sobrepasa el borde perimetral del núcleo y se extiende hasta su otro lado lateral que se encuentra en correspondencia con el interior del núcleo entre Ia capa interna y dicho núcleo.This internal barrier has one of its lateral sides external to the core and in contact with the inner face of the outer layer, then it is extended with an upward inclination, it exceeds the perimeter edge of the core and extends to its other lateral side which is in correspondence with the interior of the core between the inner layer and said core.
La barrera interna puede extenderse con distintas configuraciones en uno o más tramos y en distintas zonas del borde perimetral, por ejemplo en una posible solución Ia barrera interna muestra una configuración en U y se prolonga sobre el borde perimetral en Ia zona frontal o posterior del artículo, esta solución se aplica preferentemente para artículos absorbentes masculinos, debido a Ia proximidad de esta zona a los genitales masculinos.
Otra posible solución contempla Ia incorporación de Ia barrera interna configurada por dos tramos laterales opuestos situados sobre los laterales del borde perimetral del núcleo, extendiéndose a partir de éste en toda Ia longitud del artículo hacia los sectores frontal y posterior. Otra solución complementaria a ésta mantendría los tramos laterales y adicionalmente contaría con unos tramos transversales posterior y anterior que se extienden entre los tramos laterales.The internal barrier can be extended with different configurations in one or more sections and in different areas of the perimeter edge, for example in a possible solution the internal barrier shows a U-shaped configuration and extends over the perimeter edge in the front or rear area of the article , this solution is preferably applied to male absorbent articles, due to the proximity of this area to the male genitals. Another possible solution contemplates the incorporation of the internal barrier configured by two opposite lateral sections located on the sides of the perimeter edge of the core, extending from it along the entire length of the article towards the front and rear sectors. Another complementary solution to this one would maintain the lateral sections and additionally it would have some posterior and anterior transverse sections that extend between the lateral sections.
Otra solución de aplicación masculina y femenina contempla que Ia configuración en U, antes descrita de Ia barrera interna, se extienda sobre el borde perimetral del núcleo absorbente en Ia zona frontal o posterior y en Ia zona media.Another solution of male and female application contemplates that the U-shaped configuration, described above of the internal barrier, extends over the perimeter edge of the absorbent core in the front or rear area and in the middle area.
En otra realización Ia barrera interna podría consistir en un único tramo que se extiende sobre todo el borde perimetral del artículo del núcleo absorbente.In another embodiment, the internal barrier could consist of a single section that extends over the entire perimeter edge of the absorbent core article.
La incorporación de esta barrera interna es de aplicación preferente para un tipo de artículo absorbente que dispone de barreras antiescape laterales de tejido no tejido hidrófobo, en las que esta barrera interna constituye un refuerzo adicional a dichas barreras laterales.The incorporation of this internal barrier is of preferential application for a type of absorbent article that has lateral anti-escape barriers of hydrophobic nonwoven fabric, in which this internal barrier constitutes an additional reinforcement to said lateral barriers.
Otro tipo de artículo absorbente que incorpora esta barrera interna consiste en un artículo constituido por un núcleo, una capa externa y una capa interna zonal en Ia que se distingue una zona central hidrófila en correspondencia con el núcleo absorbente y unas zonas extremas hidrófobas en correspondencia con Ia ubicación de las barreras internas. Complementariamente se ha previsto que debajo de Ia barrera interna y por encima del núcleo se encuentre un hilo elástico lateral que confiere concavidad al núcleo de modo que Ia barrera interna actúe como única barrera antiescape.
