By cutting the continuous laminated body in this way, a large amount of panty liner 1 can be formed in a short time.
- the present invention includes first and second inventions.
- the first invention relates to the improvement of the following absorbent article 1.
- the absorbent article 1 has a longitudinal direction Y and a transverse direction X, and is located on the non-body side, the water-degradable surface sheet 20 located on the body side, the non-body side that is the body side and the opposite side.
- a water-decomposable back sheet 30, a water-decomposable bodily fluid absorber 40 positioned between the front and back sheets 20 and 30, and the back sheet 30 formed on the non-body side of the back sheet 20. It includes adhesive portions 60 and 70 that can be bonded to each other.
- the back sheet 30 is formed of a fiber nonwoven fabric, and the fibers of the fiber nonwoven fabric have an orientation extending in the longitudinal direction Y.
- the adhesive portion includes a first adhesive portion 60 that extends in the longitudinal direction Y, and a second adhesive portion 70 that is spaced apart from both lateral sides X of the first adhesive portion 60 and extends in the longitudinal direction Y.
- the second adhesive portion 70 has a plurality of adhesive portions that are separated in the longitudinal direction Y, and at least a part of the first adhesive portion 60 is a portion of the separated portion in the longitudinal direction Y of the second adhesive portion 70. Located in the horizontal direction X.
- the first invention can include at least the following embodiments.
- the dimension in the longitudinal direction Y of the bonding portions 60 and 70 is made larger than the fiber length of the fiber nonwoven fabric forming the back sheet 30.
- the first adhesive portion 60 includes a first front adhesive portion 61 and a first rear adhesive portion 63 that are arranged apart from each other in the longitudinal direction Y, and a first central adhesive portion 62 positioned therebetween.
- the second adhesive portion 70 includes a second front adhesive portion 71 and a second rear adhesive portion 72 that are spaced apart from each other in the longitudinal direction Y.
- the dimension of the first and second adhesive portions 60 and 70 in the lateral direction X is 2.0 to 15.0 mm.
- the separation dimension in the longitudinal direction Y of the first and second adhesive portions 60 and 70 is made larger than the fiber length of the fiber nonwoven fabric forming the back sheet.
- the separation dimension in the lateral direction X of the first and second adhesive portions 60 and 70 is made smaller than the fiber length of the fiber nonwoven fabric forming the back sheet.
- the second adhesive portion 70 is larger in dimension in the longitudinal direction Y than the first adhesive portion 60.
- Non-adhesive regions 64 and 65 are formed outside the first adhesive portion 60 in the longitudinal direction Y.
- a liquid-impervious leak prevention sheet 50 is attached between the absorber 40 and the back sheet 30, and at least one of the first and second adhesive portions 60 and 70 is the leak.
- the prevention sheet 50 has a positional relationship overlapping with both side edges.
- the manufacturing method of the absorbent article 1 includes the step of conveying the first fiber web 2 in the machine direction MD, the step of laminating the absorbent body 4 on the first fiber web 2 and bonding them together, and the first fiber A step of laminating the second fiber web 3 on the web 2 via the absorbent body 4 and bonding them together, and the absorbent body 4 of one of the first fiber web 2 and the second fiber web 3; Forming the adhesive portions 60 and 70 on the opposite surface, laminating the release sheet 8 on the adhesive portions 60 and 70, the first and second fiber webs 2 and 3, and the absorption Cutting the laminated body of the body 4 and the release sheet 8.
- the 2nd invention is the manufacturing method of the said absorbent article 1,
- the said adhesive parts 60 and 70 are the 1st nozzle 6 located in the cross direction CD orthogonal to the said machine direction MD, and the said intersection of the said 1st nozzle 6. It is formed by applying an adhesive intermittently in the machine direction MD by an adhesive application device 98 having a second nozzle 7 located outside the direction CD.
- the second invention can include at least the following embodiments.
- the laminate is cut between the bonding portions 60 and 70 that are spaced apart in the longitudinal direction Y.
- panty liner 1 that is an example of an absorbent article. Can be used.
- the terms “first”, “second”, “third”, and “fourth” are simply used to distinguish similar elements, positions, and the like.
