  • the low-pressure squeezing recess 32 disposed in the low-pressure squeezing region 14 is formed by integrating the first sheet 21 and the top sheet 11 by squeezing, so that friction due to the movement of the user is caused. Since the surface sheet 11 is prevented from peeling from the first sheet 21 and the unevenness generated in the surface sheet 11 is relatively small, it is difficult to cause an unpleasant sensation to the user. Furthermore, since the increase in the hardness of the low pressure area 14 is suppressed, deformation of the absorbent article adapted to the movement of the user is not hindered, and wrinkles parallel to the longitudinal direction Y are formed. As a result of suppressing the irregular deformation of the product, it is possible to improve the feeling of use and prevent leakage.

Abstract

L'invention fournit un article absorbant ne conférant pas à la personne le portant de sensation désagréable, et empêchant des torsions ou des creux et reliefs relativement importants. Cet article absorbant est équipé : d'une feuille de face endroit (11), d'une feuille de face envers (12) et d'un corps absorbant (20) intercalé entre ces deux feuilles. En outre, cet article absorbant est équipé : d'une rainure de compression circulaire (31) longitudinale formée par compression dans la direction de l'épaisseur de la feuille de face endroit et du corps absorbant, en une région de superposition du corps absorbant avec la feuille de face endroit ; de régions de compression basse (14) qui sont positionnées aux deux parties extrémité dans la direction longitudinale à l'intérieur d'une région (16) entourée par la rainure de compression circulaire, et qui possèdent des parties creuses de basse compression (32) formées par compression dans la direction de l'épaisseur de la feuille de face endroit et du corps absorbant ; et d'une région centrale d'absorption (17) positionnée entre les régions de compression basse. L'épaisseur d'une partie basse des régions de compression basse, est supérieure à celle d'une partie basse située dans la rainure de compression circulaire.
