Description

Absorbent articles and mounting members

The present invention relates to an absorbent article that can absorb a wearer's body fluid and is detachable from the absorbent article.

Recently, a swaddle mat having a pocket for accommodating a flexible member soaked with a mother's scent has been proposed as a swaddle mat for wrapping an infant's body (for example, Patent Document 1). The flexible member soaked with the mother's scent is, for example, a mother's handkerchief or a nursing pad.

According to such a swaddle mat, when the infant is wrapped up with the swaddle mat, the mother's scent can make the infant feel comfortable.

As shown in FIG. 4, the front waistline sheet 30 is folded back toward the skin surface from the outside toward the inside in the product width direction W. A part of the end portion 30a of the folded front waistline sheet 30 is laminated so as to overlap the region where the nonwoven fabric 4A is folded. For this reason, the area | region (inside the dotted-line frame in a figure) where a plurality of sheet-like members are laminated is formed, and after the wearer wears the absorbent article 1, the front waistline sheet 30 is outside the product width direction W. Even if pulled, the sheet-like member is difficult to break.

The front waistline sheet 30 continues to the end portion 10a2 of the crotch member 10 in the product longitudinal direction L. Further, the front waistline sheet 30 is continuous with the end 10b1 and the end 10b2 in the product width direction W at the end 10a2. In the first embodiment, the front waistline sheet 30 has a quadrangular shape.

The front waistline sheet 30 is formed of a liquid-impermeable nonwoven fabric. In the first embodiment, the front waistline sheet 30 is formed of an SMS nonwoven fabric. In addition, as the front waistline sheet | seat 30, SB nonwoven fabric etc. can be used other than SMS nonwoven fabric.

In the first embodiment, the front waistline region 30F has a specific portion 60 to which oxytocin or a component that induces oxytocin is added.

The component that induces oxytocin preferably contains, for example, breast milk as a main component. Preferably, the component that induces oxytocin preferably contains the mother's milk of the mother of the wearer of the absorbent article 1 as a main component. As described above, when the component for inducing oxytocin contains breast milk as a main component, an effect of giving a comfortable feeling to a user such as an infant can be expected.

However, the component that induces oxytocin is not limited to this. For example, the component that induces oxytocin may include rose oil, ethyltrimethylcyclopentenylbutenol, methyltrimethylcyclopentenylpentanol, and hexahydrohexamethylcyclopentabenzopyran (for example, JP 2011-098898 A). .

It is preferable that the specific part 60 is provided in the part arrange | positioned in a wearer's stomach side in the state which the wearer wore the absorbent article 1. FIG. For example, the specific part 60 is provided in front of a virtual product center line VL (see FIG. 1) that passes through the center of the absorbent article 1 in the product longitudinal direction L and extends along the product width direction W. Alternatively, the specific portion 60 may be provided on the locking tape 40. Further, the specific portion 60 may be a part of the locking tape 40.

Thus, in a state where the wearer wears the absorbent article 1, the specific part 60 is provided in a part arranged on the wearer's stomach side. As a result, oxytocin or components that induce oxytocin are likely to reach the wearer's nose.

The specific portion 60 is preferably provided outside the back sheet 4 (nonwoven fabric 4A and back film 4B) in the product thickness direction T. However, the specific part 60 may be provided in the target tape portion 10t of the front waistline region 30F. Alternatively, the specific portion 60 may be a part of the nonwoven fabric 4A. Alternatively, the specific portion 60 may be a part of the crotch member 10 in the front waistline region 30F. In addition, the specific part 60 may be provided in a part (nonwoven fabric 4A) of the back sheet 4 as long as it is outside the back film 4B in the product thickness direction T.

Thus, by providing the specific portion 60 outside the liquid-impermeable back film 4B in the product thickness direction T, oxytocin or components that induce oxytocin are not inhibited by the back film 4B.

The specific part 60 is configured by a non-woven fabric. It is preferable that the surface of the nonwoven fabric which comprises the specific part 60 has an unevenness | corrugation. Specifically, the basis weight of the nonwoven fabric constituting the specific portion 60 is preferably 5 gsm to 50 gsm. Or it is preferable that a pressing part is provided in the surface of the nonwoven fabric which comprises the specific site | part 60. FIG. In such a case, the interval between the compressed parts is preferably 2 mm to 20 mm. Moreover, it is preferable that the pressing rate of a pressing part is 50% or less.

Thus, since the specific site | part 60 provided in the absorbent article 1 which contact | connects a wearer inside a wearer's clothes is comprised with a nonwoven fabric, moisture, such as sweat which volatilizes from a wearer's body temperature and a wearer's body Is transmitted to the non-woven fabric. Moreover, since the clearance gap is formed between the fibers which comprise a nonwoven fabric, a motion of air generate | occur | produces inside a nonwoven fabric according to a wearer's motion. That is, the specific part 60 is deformed according to the movement of the wearer, and oxytocin or a component that induces oxytocin is likely to diffuse outside the absorbent article 1 due to the deformation of the specific part 60. Moreover, when the surface of the nonwoven fabric which comprises the specific part 60 has an unevenness | corrugation, the surface area of the specific part 60 increases, and the component which induces oxytocin or an oxytocin is easy to spread | diffuse.

The locking tape 40 is attached to the end 20a of the rear waistline sheet 20 by HMA or the like.

For example, the locking tape 40 includes a male member of a hook-and-loop fastener, and has a locking surface 40a on which a plurality of hook-shaped protrusions (hooks) are formed. The locking surface 40 a is locked to the target tape portion 10 t provided at the end portion 10 a 2 of the crotch member 10. In 1st Embodiment, the part of the other locking tape 40 except the locking surface 40a is formed with SB nonwoven fabric. In addition, as a raw material of the locking tape 40, a resin film etc. are mentioned besides SB nonwoven fabric.

Here, when providing the specific site | part 60 as a part of latching tape 40, a part of latching tape 40 is comprised with the nonwoven fabric, and the component which induces oxytocin or an oxytocin may be provided to a nonwoven fabric. preferable.

(Wearing absorbent articles)
FIG. 5 is a view showing a state in which the wearer wears the absorbent article 1. As shown in FIG. 5, the absorbent article 1 is attached to the wearer such that the absorbent body 5 is positioned in the wearer's crotch WG.

And a second cutting step S60.

In the first folding step S10, the side end portion 130c and the side end portion 130d of the flap sheet 130S that are continuous along the conveyance direction MD are folded toward the upper surface 130e side of the flap sheet 130S toward the center line CL side of the flap sheet 130S. And bonded by HMA or the like. The center line CL is a straight line passing through the center of the product width direction W (direction orthogonal to the conveyance direction MD) of the flap sheet 130S.

In the second folding step S20, the folded end portion 130f and the folded end portion 130g formed by folding the side end portion 130c and the side end portion 130d of the flap sheet 130S are directed toward the center line CL. Folded to the upper surface 130e side. As a result, an overlapping portion 130h and an overlapping portion 130i in which a plurality of flap sheets 130S are stacked are formed at both ends of the flap sheet 130S.

In the locking tape applying step S30, the tape member 40S in which the pair of locking tapes 40 are continuous is applied to the flap sheet 130S at a predetermined interval along the transport direction MD. In the center of the tape member 40S, a process for facilitating the separation of the tape member 40S into a pair of locking tapes 40, such as a perforation 40c, is performed along the conveyance direction MD.

In the first cutting step S40, the flap sheet 130S is cut at a predetermined interval along the cross direction CD orthogonal to the transport direction MD. The cut piece 32 from which the flap sheet 130 </ b> S is cut is obtained by integrating the rear waistline sheet 20 and the front waistline sheet 30.

In the flap sticking step S50, the cut pieces 32 are arranged on the crotch region continuous body 10S at a predetermined interval. In the crotch region continuous body 10S, the absorbent body 5 is intermittently disposed on a continuous body of exterior sheets (top sheet 3 and back sheet 4). The cut pieces 32 are disposed on the crotch region continuous body 10S so as to cover the gaps between the absorbent bodies 5 disposed intermittently, and are joined to the crotch region continuous body 10S.

In the second cutting step S60, the crotch region continuous body 10S to which the cut pieces 32 are joined is cut along the cross direction CD. The cut piece 32 is separated into a rear waistline sheet 20 of one product and a front waistline sheet 30 of the product following the one product. The absorbent article 1 is completed by executing the above-described steps S10 to S60.

Here, when the specific portion 60 described above is a part of the nonwoven fabric 4A of the backsheet 4, oxytocin or a component that induces oxytocin is applied in advance to the flap sheet 130S (nonwoven fabric 4A). When the specific part 60 is a part of the crotch member 10, oxytocin or a component that induces oxytocin is applied in advance to the crotch region continuous body 10S (target tape portion 10t).
