Description

使い捨ておむつDisposable diapers
 本発明は、着用者の股下に装着され、尿などの液体を吸収し保持するための使い捨ておむつに関する。 The present invention relates to a disposable diaper that is attached to a wearer's inseam and absorbs and holds a liquid such as urine.
 従来から、後身頃に複数のタックが形成された使い捨ておむつが知られている。例えば、特許文献1に開示された使い捨ておむつでは、タックが後身頃を構成するシート部材を山折線と谷折線に沿って折り畳むことにより形成されている。このタックは、例えば着用者が前傾となった場合に着用者の背部の伸びに合わせて上下方向に展開する。このため、おむつの後身頃が着用者の股下方向へずれ込み股下付近でたるむことを防止でき、また、後身頃の丈の長さが不足して着用者の背部がはみ出したり、使い捨ておむつと着用者の背部の間に隙間が生じることを回避できる。 Conventionally, disposable diapers having a plurality of tacks formed on the back are known. For example, in the disposable diaper disclosed in Patent Document 1, a tuck is formed by folding a sheet member constituting the back body along a mountain fold line and a valley fold line. For example, when the wearer tilts forward, the tack is developed in the vertical direction in accordance with the elongation of the wearer's back. For this reason, the back of the diaper can be prevented from slipping toward the inseam of the wearer and sagging in the vicinity of the inseam, and the back of the back of the diaper is insufficient and the back of the wearer protrudes. It is possible to avoid a gap between the backs of the two.

Moreover, this connection part 40 may be a separate independent member separated from the front body exterior body 10 and the back body exterior body 20, or may be a member integrated with the exterior body. In the present specification, the term “exterior body” simply refers to both or either the front body exterior body 10 and the back body exterior body 20.
 上記の構成のように、吸収性本体30と外装体10,20の間に連結部40を設け、この連結部40にタックを形成することで、タックが形成された部位の通気性を高めることができる。 As in the above configuration, the connecting portion 40 is provided between the absorbent main body 30 and the exterior bodies 10 and 20, and the tack is formed on the connecting portion 40, thereby improving the air permeability of the portion where the tack is formed. Can do.
 また、本発明において、吸収性本体30は、長手方向の端部において連結部40の肌対向面に対して接合されていない非接合部位30aと、この非接合部位30aよりも長手方向の股下部側において連結部40の肌対向面に接合された接合部位30bを有する。より具体的に説明すると、吸収性本体30は、長手方向の端部において幅方向の全域に亘って連結部40に接合されずに、この連結部40の肌対向面から離間している。この部分が「非接合部位30a」となる。他方で、吸収性本体30は、この非接合部位30aよりも使い捨ておむつの股下部側の領域において、連結部の肌対向面に対して少なくとも部分的に(言い換えれば、全面的又は部分的に)接合されている。この吸収性本体30と連結部40とが接合された部分が「接合部位30b」となる。なお、本発明において、吸収性本体30は、連結部40とは別体である。 Moreover, in this invention, the absorptive main body 30 has the non-joining site | part 30a which is not joined with respect to the skin opposing surface of the connection part 40 in the edge part of a longitudinal direction, and the crotch part of a longitudinal direction rather than this non-joining site | part 30a. In the side, it has the joining site | part 30b joined to the skin opposing surface of the connection part 40. FIG. If demonstrating it more concretely, the absorptive main body 30 is spaced apart from the skin opposing surface of this connection part 40, without joining to the connection part 40 over the whole area of the width direction in the edge part of a longitudinal direction. This portion becomes the “non-joined portion 30a”. On the other hand, the absorbent main body 30 is at least partially (in other words, completely or partially) with respect to the skin-facing surface of the connecting portion in the crotch lower side region of the disposable diaper than the non-joined portion 30a. It is joined. A portion where the absorbent main body 30 and the connecting portion 40 are joined becomes a “joined portion 30b”. In the present invention, the absorbent main body 30 is a separate body from the connecting portion 40.
 前述のとおり、本発明は連結部40にはタックが形成されているため、このタックが形成されていない通常の使い捨ておむつと比較すると、このタックが形成された部分における通気性がやや劣ると考えられる。そこで、上記構成のように、吸収性本体30の長手方向の端部を連結部40から離間させることで、吸収性本体30の端部と連結部40との間に隙間が生じやすくなるため、タック付近における通気性を向上させることができる。このようにすれば、連結部40にタックを形成して必要に応じて展開可能な構成を採用した場合であっても、タック付近に溜まった湿気を効率的に排出することができ、この部位に蒸れが発生するのを抑制することができる。 As described above, since the present invention has a tuck formed on the connecting portion 40, it is considered that the air permeability in the portion where the tuck is formed is slightly inferior to a normal disposable diaper in which this tuck is not formed. It is done. Therefore, as in the above configuration, by separating the longitudinal end of the absorbent main body 30 from the connecting portion 40, a gap is easily generated between the end of the absorbent main body 30 and the connecting portion 40. The air permeability in the vicinity of the tack can be improved. In this way, even when a tack is formed in the connecting portion 40 and a configuration that can be deployed as needed is adopted, moisture accumulated in the vicinity of the tack can be efficiently discharged. It is possible to suppress the occurrence of stuffiness.
 本発明の使い捨ておむつにおいて、吸収性本体30は、長手方向に沿って伸長状態で固定された弾性伸縮部材を有することが好ましい。このように、吸収性本体30の長手方向端部に位置する非接合部位30aに弾性伸縮部材を伸長状態で固定することで、この弾性伸縮部材が非接合部位30aを捲り上げて、吸収性本体30の非接合部位30aと連結部40とを離間させるように作用する。このため、吸収性本体30の非接合部位30aと連結部40との間に隙間が生じやすくなり、通気性が良好な状態を維持できる。 In the disposable diaper of the present invention, the absorbent main body 30 preferably has an elastic stretchable member fixed in an elongated state along the longitudinal direction. Thus, by fixing the elastic stretchable member to the non-joined portion 30a located at the longitudinal end of the absorbent main body 30 in an expanded state, the elastic stretchable member lifts up the non-joined portion 30a, and the absorbent main body The 30 non-joining site | part 30a and the connection part 40 act so that it may space apart. For this reason, it becomes easy to produce a clearance gap between the non-joining site | part 30a of the absorptive main body 30, and the connection part 40, and a state with favorable air permeability can be maintained.
 本発明の使い捨ておむつにおいて、弾性伸縮部材は、非接合部位30aから接合部位30bに亘って延在していることが好ましい。このように、長手方向に沿って伸長状態とされている弾性伸縮部材が、非接合部位30a及び接合部位30bに固定されていることで、接合部位30b側から非接合部位30aを捲り上げるように弾性伸縮部材の収縮力が作用する。このため、非接合部位30aのみに弾性伸縮部材が固定されている場合と比較し、非接合部位30aと接合部位30bに亘って弾性伸縮部材を固定した方が、より効果的に吸収性本体30の非接合部位30aを連結部40から離間させることできる。 In the disposable diaper of the present invention, it is preferable that the elastic stretchable member extends from the non-joining part 30a to the joining part 30b. As described above, the elastic elastic members that are extended along the longitudinal direction are fixed to the non-joining part 30a and the joining part 30b, so that the non-joining part 30a is raised from the joining part 30b side. The contraction force of the elastic elastic member acts. For this reason, compared with the case where the elastic elastic member is fixed only to the non-joining part 30a, the direction which fixed the elastic elastic member over the non-joining part 30a and the joining part 30b is more effective. The non-joining part 30a can be separated from the connecting part 40.
 本発明の使い捨ておむつにおいて、弾性伸縮部材は、非接合部位30a及び接合部位30bを超えて吸収性本体30の長手方向全域に亘って延在していてもよい。この場合、弾性伸縮部材は、接合部位30bにおいて、少なくとも部分的に伸縮性を発現しないようにされていることしてもよい。例えば、接合部位30bに位置する弾性伸縮部材を部分的に切断したり、あるいは弾性伸縮部材を部分的に非伸長状態で接合部位30bに固定することで、弾性伸縮部材が伸縮性を発現しないようにすることができる。ここで、吸収性本体30の長手方向全域に亘って延在する弾性伸縮部材としては、後述するように立体ギャザー伸縮部材36やレッグ伸縮部材37を利用することができる。ただし、立体ギャザー伸縮部材36やレッグ伸縮部材37が吸収性本体30の長手方向全域において伸縮性を有していると、吸収性本体30が股下部において大きく屈曲しフィット感が損なわれることが懸念される。そこで、前述のように、吸収性本体30の接合部位30bにおいて弾性伸縮部材の伸縮力を部分的に無効化しておくことで、吸収性本体30のフィット性を維持しつつ、吸収性本体30の非接合部位30aの捲り上げ作用をも維持できる。 In the disposable diaper of the present invention, the elastic stretchable member may extend over the entire longitudinal direction of the absorbent main body 30 beyond the non-joining part 30a and the joining part 30b. In this case, the elastic stretchable member may be configured not to express stretchability at least partially at the joint portion 30b. For example, the elastic elastic member does not exhibit elasticity by partially cutting the elastic elastic member located at the bonding part 30b or by fixing the elastic elastic member to the bonding part 30b in a partially unextended state. Can be. Here, as an elastic elastic member that extends over the entire longitudinal direction of the absorbent main body 30, a three-dimensional gather elastic member 36 and a leg elastic member 37 can be used as described later. However, if the three-dimensional gather elastic member 36 and the leg elastic member 37 have elasticity in the entire longitudinal direction of the absorbent main body 30, there is a concern that the absorbent main body 30 is greatly bent at the crotch part and the fit feeling is impaired. Is done. Therefore, as described above, by partially invalidating the elastic force of the elastic elastic member at the joint portion 30b of the absorbent main body 30, while maintaining the fit of the absorbent main body 30, The lifting action of the non-joining part 30a can also be maintained.
 本発明の使い捨ておむつにおいて、連結部40は、山折部41と谷折部42の間に位置する中間領域43を有する。この中間領域43は、連結部40が山折部41及び谷折部42において折り畳まれた状態において、この中間領域43の肌対向面側に対面する部位と肌非対向面側に対面する部位の両方又はいずれか一方の部位に対して、剥離可能又は剥離不能に接合された接合領域43aを有する。なお、中間領域43は、接合領域43aにおいて、肌対向面側に対面する部位だけでなく、肌非対向面側に対面する部位と接合されていてもよい。また、接合領域43aは中間領域43の全域に亘っていてもよいが、その場合、接合領域43aは、中間領域43をその対面部位に対して剥離可能に接合する(すなわち仮接合)するものである。また、接合領域43aは中間領域43をその対面部位に対して剥離不能に接合するものであってもよいが、その場合、接合領域43aは、中間領域43に部分的に設けられたものとなる。なお、接合領域43aが中間領域43の一部に設けられている場合、その他の領域を非接合領域43bと称する。なお、パンツ型の使い捨ておむつにおいては、いわゆるサイドシール部4が、ここにいう接合領域43aとして機能するものであると解釈することもできる。 In the disposable diaper of the present invention, the connecting portion 40 has an intermediate region 43 located between the mountain folded portion 41 and the valley folded portion 42. The intermediate region 43 has both a portion facing the skin facing surface side and a portion facing the skin non-facing surface side of the intermediate region 43 in a state where the connecting portion 40 is folded at the mountain fold portion 41 and the valley fold portion 42. Or it has the joining area | region 43a joined so that peeling or the non-peeling with respect to any one site | part. In addition, the intermediate | middle area | region 43 may be joined not only the site | part which faces the skin opposing surface side but the site | part which faces the skin non-opposing surface side in the joining area | region 43a. Moreover, although the joining area | region 43a may cover the whole region of the intermediate | middle area | region 43, in that case, the joining area | region 43a joins the intermediate | middle area | region 43 so that peeling is possible with respect to the facing part (namely, temporary joining). is there. In addition, the joining region 43a may be one that joins the intermediate region 43 to the facing portion so as not to be peeled off. In that case, the joining region 43a is partially provided in the intermediate region 43. . In addition, when the joining area | region 43a is provided in a part of intermediate | middle area | region 43, another area | region is called the non-joining area | region 43b. In the pants-type disposable diaper, the so-called side seal portion 4 can also be interpreted as functioning as the joining region 43a.
 本発明によれば、前身頃外装体、後身頃外装体、及び吸収性本体に分離された使い捨ておむつにおいて、タックが形成された部位の通気性を高めることができる。 According to the present invention, in the disposable diaper separated into the front body exterior body, the back body exterior body, and the absorbent main body, it is possible to improve the air permeability of the portion where the tack is formed.

FIG. 1 is an external perspective view of a disposable diaper according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a development view of the disposable diaper shown in FIG. 1 and shows a state in which the diaper is viewed in plan from the skin facing surface side. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view of the disposable diaper shown in FIG. 1, and shows a sectional structure taken along the line III-III shown in FIG. In the present specification, the present invention will be described by taking as an example a case where the present invention is applied to a pants-type disposable diaper. However, the present invention is not limited to a pants-type disposable diaper, but can also be applied to a tape-type disposable diaper.
 図1から図3に示されるように、本発明に係る使い捨ておむつ100は、長手方向(Y軸方向)に、着用者の腹部に接する前身頃1、着用者の背部に接する後身頃2、及びこれら前身頃1及び後身頃2の間に位置する股下部3に区分される。本実施形態において、前身頃1には前身頃外装体10が位置し、後身頃2には後身頃外装体20が位置する。また、股下部3には吸収性本体30が位置しており、この吸収性本体30は、股下部3を中心として、前身頃1及び後身頃2にかけて長手方向に延在している。このため、吸収性本体30は、前身頃1側の端部が前身頃外装体10と厚み方向に重なり、他方で後身頃2側の端部が後身頃外装体20と厚み方向に重なる。本発明において、前身頃外装体10、後身頃外装体20、及び吸収性本体30は、基本的に別体として構成されている。本実施形態において、各外装体10,20は、平面視において幅方向に長い略矩形状に形成されている。また、吸収性本体30は、平面視において長手方向に長い略矩形状に形成されている。ただし、各外装体10,20及び吸収性本体30の形状は図示したものに限られず、本発明の機能を発揮できる範囲において適宜変形させることができる。 As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, a disposable diaper 100 according to the present invention includes a front body 1 in contact with the wearer's abdomen, a back body 2 in contact with the wearer's back in the longitudinal direction (Y-axis direction), and The crotch part 3 is divided between the front body 1 and the back body 2. In the present embodiment, the front body exterior body 10 is positioned on the front body 1, and the back body exterior body 20 is positioned on the back body 2. In addition, an absorbent main body 30 is positioned in the crotch part 3, and the absorbent main body 30 extends in the longitudinal direction from the crotch part 3 to the front body 1 and the back body 2. For this reason, as for the absorptive main body 30, the edge part on the front body 1 side overlaps with the front body exterior body 10 in the thickness direction, and the edge part on the back body 2 side overlaps with the back body exterior body 20 in the thickness direction. In the present invention, the front body exterior body 10, the back body exterior body 20, and the absorbent main body 30 are basically configured as separate bodies. In this embodiment, each exterior body 10 and 20 is formed in the substantially rectangular shape long in the width direction in planar view. Moreover, the absorptive main body 30 is formed in the substantially rectangular shape long in a longitudinal direction in planar view. However, the shape of each exterior body 10 and 20 and the absorptive main body 30 is not restricted to what was illustrated, It can deform | transform suitably in the range which can exhibit the function of this invention.
 また、前身頃外装体10と後身頃外装体20の幅方向(X軸方向)の左右両端部には、サイドシール部4が設けられている。このサイドシール部4において、前身頃外装体10と後身頃外装体20の左右両端の対面する部位が互いに接合される。接合方法は、例えば、ヒートシールや、超音波シール、あるいはホットメルト接着剤等を利用した接着など、公知の方法を採用することができる。図1に示されるように、前身頃外装体10と後身頃外装体20がサイドシール部4において接合されることで、これらの外装体10,20が環状に繋がる。そして、前身頃外装体10と後身頃外装体20の上縁によって、ウエスト開口部5が画定される。また、前身頃外装体10の下端部から後身頃外装体20の下端部にかけて吸収性本体30が架け渡されるようにして配設されている。このため、吸収性本体30の左右両側縁及び各外装体10,20の下縁によって、左右のレッグ開口部6が画定される。着用者は、ウエスト開口部5から両脚部を挿入し、左右のレッグ開口部6から片足ずつ出すことで、パンツ型の使い捨ておむつ100を装着できる。 Further, side seal portions 4 are provided at both left and right end portions in the width direction (X-axis direction) of the front body exterior body 10 and the rear body exterior body 20. In the side seal portion 4, the facing portions of the left and right ends of the front body exterior body 10 and the rear body exterior body 20 are joined to each other. As a joining method, for example, a known method such as heat sealing, ultrasonic sealing, or adhesion using a hot melt adhesive can be employed. As shown in FIG. 1, the front body exterior body 10 and the rear body exterior body 20 are joined at the side seal portion 4, so that the exterior bodies 10 and 20 are connected in a ring shape. The waist opening 5 is defined by the upper edges of the front body exterior body 10 and the rear body exterior body 20. Further, the absorbent main body 30 is disposed so as to be bridged from the lower end portion of the front body exterior body 10 to the lower end portion of the rear body exterior body 20. For this reason, the left and right leg openings 6 are defined by the left and right side edges of the absorbent main body 30 and the lower edges of the exterior bodies 10 and 20. The wearer can wear the pants-type disposable diaper 100 by inserting both legs from the waist opening 5 and taking out one leg from the left and right leg openings 6.
 図3に示されるように、各外装体10,20は、肌対向面側に位置するインナーシート11,21と、肌非対向面側に位置するアウターシート12,22と、インナーシートとアウターシートの間に位置する一又は複数のウエスト伸縮部材13,23を備える。ウエスト伸縮部材13,23が複数である場合には、長手方向に所定の間隔を空けて配置される。各ウエスト伸縮部材13,23は、おむつの幅方向に伸張した状態で、インナーシート11,21とアウターシート12,22の間に挟み込んで固定されている。例えば、伸長状態のウエスト伸縮部材13,23にホットメルト接着剤などを直接塗布し、この接着剤が塗布されたものをインナーシート11,21とアウターシート12,22に配置すればよい。これにより、ウエスト伸縮部材13,23が収縮したときに、インナーシート11,21とアウターシート12,22とが撓んで複数の細かいシワ(ウエストギャザー)を形成する。ウエスト伸縮部材13,23を配置する本数は特に限定されないが、例えば3~20本又は4~15本が好ましい。 As shown in FIG. 3, each of the exterior bodies 10 and 20 includes inner sheets 11 and 21 located on the skin facing surface side, outer sheets 12 and 22 located on the skin non-facing surface side, an inner sheet and an outer sheet. 1 or a plurality of waist elastic members 13 and 23 located between. When there are a plurality of waist elastic members 13 and 23, they are arranged at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction. The waist elastic members 13 and 23 are sandwiched and fixed between the inner sheets 11 and 21 and the outer sheets 12 and 22 in a state of extending in the width direction of the diaper. For example, a hot melt adhesive or the like may be directly applied to the stretched waist elastic members 13 and 23, and those applied with the adhesive may be disposed on the inner sheets 11 and 21 and the outer sheets 12 and 22. Thereby, when the waist elastic members 13 and 23 contract, the inner sheets 11 and 21 and the outer sheets 12 and 22 bend to form a plurality of fine wrinkles (waist gathers). The number of the waist elastic members 13 and 23 arranged is not particularly limited, but for example, 3 to 20 or 4 to 15 is preferable.
 インナーシート11,21及びアウターシート12,22を形成するシート部材は、公知の物を利用することができ特に限定されないが、肌触りの良い不織布で形成することが好ましい。不織布としては、エアスルー不織布、ポイントボンド不織布、スパンボンド不織布、エアレイド不織布、メルトブロー不織布、SMS不織布、SMMS不織布などを挙げることができる。また、ウエスト伸縮部材13,23としては、公知の弾性伸縮部材を利用することができるが、例えば糸状弾性ゴムを好適に用いることができる。このようなゴム材としては、スチレン系ゴム、オレフィン系ゴム、ウレタン系ゴム、エステル系ゴム、ポリウレタン、ポリエチレン、ポリスチレン、スチレンブタジエン、シリコーン、ポリエステル等の素材を用いることができる。 The sheet members for forming the inner sheets 11 and 21 and the outer sheets 12 and 22 can use known materials and are not particularly limited, but are preferably formed of a non-woven fabric having a good touch. Examples of the nonwoven fabric include air-through nonwoven fabric, point bond nonwoven fabric, spunbond nonwoven fabric, airlaid nonwoven fabric, melt blown nonwoven fabric, SMS nonwoven fabric, and SMMS nonwoven fabric. Further, as the elastic members 13 and 23, known elastic elastic members can be used. For example, thread elastic rubber can be suitably used. As such a rubber material, materials such as styrene rubber, olefin rubber, urethane rubber, ester rubber, polyurethane, polyethylene, polystyrene, styrene butadiene, silicone, and polyester can be used.
 また、図3に示されるように、アウターシート12,22をインナーシート11,21よりも長手方向の上方に向かって延出させ、この延出部分をウエスト開口部5の端縁において肌対向面側に折り返し、インナーシート11,21の肌対向面に接合してもよい。このようにすることで、ウエスト開口部5の肌触りを柔らかくすることができる。 Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the outer sheets 12, 22 are extended upward in the longitudinal direction from the inner sheets 11, 21, and the extended portions are skin facing surfaces at the edge of the waist opening 5. It may be folded back and joined to the skin facing surfaces of the inner sheets 11 and 21. By doing in this way, the touch of the waist opening part 5 can be made soft.
 図3に示されるように、吸収性本体30は、基本的に、体液を吸収して保持する吸収体31と、この吸収体31の肌対向面を被覆する液透過性のトップシート32と、この吸収体31の肌非対向面を被覆する液不透過性のバックシート33を備えている。トップシート32とバックシート33とは、吸収体31の周縁部で接合されている。着用者の股下から排泄された体液は、トップシート32を透過して吸収体31へと導かれ、バックシート33によって外部への漏出が阻止される。 As shown in FIG. 3, the absorbent main body 30 basically includes an absorbent body 31 that absorbs and retains body fluid, a liquid-permeable top sheet 32 that covers the skin-facing surface of the absorbent body 31, and A liquid-impermeable back sheet 33 that covers the non-skin facing surface of the absorber 31 is provided. The top sheet 32 and the back sheet 33 are joined at the periphery of the absorber 31. The body fluid excreted from the wearer's crotch passes through the top sheet 32 and is guided to the absorber 31, and leakage to the outside is prevented by the back sheet 33.
 吸収体31は、尿などの体液を吸収し、吸収した体液を保持するための部材である。吸収体31は、通常、吸収性材料をティシューペーパなどのコアラップシートで被包することにより構成されている。吸収体31を構成する吸収性材料には、公知の材料を採用することができる。吸収性材料としては、例えば、フラップパルプ、高吸収性ポリマー、又は親水性シートを用いることとしてもよい。また、吸収性材料には、フラップパルプ、高吸収性ポリマー、又は親水性シートのうち1種類を単独で用いてもよいし、2種類以上を併用することとしてもよい。吸収性材料は、通常、単層又は複数層のマット状に形成されたものが用いられる。吸収体31の形状は、適宜、使い捨ておむつの形状や、大きさ、用途に合せて設計することができる。例えば、吸収体31の形状は、図2に示されるように、砂時計型としてもよいし、一般的に使用されている、矩形型、楕円形型、又はひょうたん型とすることとしてもよい。 The absorber 31 is a member for absorbing body fluid such as urine and holding the absorbed body fluid. The absorber 31 is normally configured by encapsulating an absorbent material with a core wrap sheet such as tissue paper. A well-known material can be employ | adopted for the absorptive material which comprises the absorber 31. FIG. As an absorptive material, it is good also as using a flap pulp, a superabsorbent polymer, or a hydrophilic sheet, for example. Moreover, as an absorptive material, 1 type may be used independently among flap pulp, a superabsorbent polymer, or a hydrophilic sheet | seat, and it is good also as using 2 or more types together. As the absorbent material, a material formed in a single-layer or multi-layer mat shape is usually used. The shape of the absorber 31 can be appropriately designed according to the shape, size, and application of the disposable diaper. For example, the shape of the absorber 31 may be an hourglass shape as shown in FIG. 2, or may be a rectangular shape, an elliptical shape, or a gourd shape that is generally used.
 トップシート32は、着用者の股下の肌に直接接し、尿などの体液を吸収体31へ透過させるための部材である。このため、トップシート32は、柔軟性が高い液透過性材料で構成される。なお、本願明細書において、「液透過性」とは、例えば、標準の大気圧下において、常温の水を5mlその上に載せた場合に、1分未満の時間で水を透過する性質を意味する。また、トップシート32を構成する液透過性材料の例は、織布、不織布、又は多孔性フィルムである。また、例えばポリプロピレンやポリエチレン、ポリエステル、ナイロンのような熱可塑性樹脂の繊維を親水化処理してさらに不織布にしたものを用いることとしてもよい。 The top sheet 32 is a member that is in direct contact with the skin of the wearer's crotch and allows body fluid such as urine to pass through the absorber 31. For this reason, the top sheet 32 is made of a liquid-permeable material having high flexibility. In the present specification, “liquid permeability” means, for example, the property of permeating water in a time of less than 1 minute when 5 ml of water at room temperature is placed thereon under standard atmospheric pressure. To do. Moreover, the example of the liquid-permeable material which comprises the top sheet 32 is a woven fabric, a nonwoven fabric, or a porous film. Further, for example, a thermoplastic resin fiber such as polypropylene, polyethylene, polyester, or nylon may be hydrophilized and further made into a nonwoven fabric.
 バックシート33は、トップシート32を透過して吸収体31に吸収された体液が、外部に漏出することを防止する。このため、バックシート33は、液不透過性材料によって構成される。本願明細書において、「液不透過性」とは、例えば、標準の大気圧下において、常温の水を5mlその上に載せた場合に、1分以上経過してもその水を透過しない性質を意味する。バックシート33を構成する液不透過材料の例は、ポリエチレン樹脂などからなるプラスチックフィルムである。特に、バックシート33としては、0.1~4μmの微細な孔が複数形成された微多孔性ポリエチレンフィルムを用いることが好ましい。 The back sheet 33 prevents body fluid that has passed through the top sheet 32 and is absorbed by the absorber 31 from leaking to the outside. For this reason, the back sheet 33 is made of a liquid-impermeable material. In this specification, “liquid impermeability” means, for example, the property that, when 5 ml of room temperature water is placed thereon under standard atmospheric pressure, the water does not permeate even after 1 minute or more. means. An example of the liquid-impermeable material constituting the back sheet 33 is a plastic film made of polyethylene resin or the like. In particular, as the back sheet 33, it is preferable to use a microporous polyethylene film in which a plurality of fine pores of 0.1 to 4 μm are formed.
 また、吸収性本体30は、上記構成に加えて、バックシート33の肌非対向面側に、カバーシート34を有していている。カバーシート34は、バックシート33を覆いその手触りを良くするために、バックシート33の肌非対向面に貼り合わされる。カバーシート34を構成する材料としては,織布や不織布を用いればよい。特に,カバーシート34を構成する材料としては、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、若しくはポリエステルのような熱可塑性樹脂からなる不織布又は湿式不織布を用いることが好ましい。 Further, the absorbent main body 30 has a cover sheet 34 on the skin non-facing surface side of the back sheet 33 in addition to the above configuration. The cover sheet 34 is bonded to the non-skin facing surface of the back sheet 33 in order to cover the back sheet 33 and improve its feel. As a material constituting the cover sheet 34, a woven fabric or a non-woven fabric may be used. In particular, as a material constituting the cover sheet 34, it is preferable to use a nonwoven fabric or a wet nonwoven fabric made of a thermoplastic resin such as polyethylene, polypropylene, or polyester.
 また、吸収性本体30は、上記構成に加えて、立体ギャザーを構成するための部材を有していている。立体ギャザーは,吸収体31の左右両側縁に沿っては配置された撥水性を持つ一対のサイドシート35と、このサイドシート35の幅方向内側の端縁に配置された一又は複数の立体ギャザー伸縮部材36によって構成される。サイドシート35は、トップシート32の肌対向面に対して長手方向に沿って固定された固定部と、この固定部よりも幅方向内側に位置しトップシート32に固定されない自由端部を有している。そして、このサイドシート35の自由端部には、長手方向に沿って立体ギャザー伸縮部材36が伸長状態で固定されている。このため、立体ギャザー伸縮部材36が収縮すると、その収縮力を受けてサイドシート35の自由端部が立ち上がり、立体ギャザーを形成する。このようにして形成された立体ギャザーは,吸収体31の両側縁部に沿って起立し、着用者が排泄した体液の横漏れを防止するための防漏壁として機能する。 Moreover, the absorptive main body 30 has the member for comprising a three-dimensional gather in addition to the said structure. The three-dimensional gather is a pair of side sheets 35 having water repellency arranged along the left and right side edges of the absorber 31 and one or a plurality of three-dimensional gathers arranged at the inner edge in the width direction of the side sheet 35. The elastic member 36 is used. The side sheet 35 has a fixed portion fixed along the longitudinal direction with respect to the skin-facing surface of the top sheet 32 and a free end portion that is positioned on the inner side in the width direction than the fixed portion and is not fixed to the top sheet 32. ing. And the three-dimensional gather expansion-contraction member 36 is being fixed to the free end part of this side seat | sheet 35 along the longitudinal direction in the expansion | extension state. For this reason, when the three-dimensional gather expansion / contraction member 36 contracts, the free end portion of the side seat 35 rises by receiving the contraction force to form a three-dimensional gather. The three-dimensional gather formed in this way stands along both side edges of the absorbent body 31 and functions as a leak-proof wall for preventing side leakage of body fluid excreted by the wearer.
 また、吸収性本体30は、上記構成に加えて、吸収性本体30の幅方向の左右両側縁に沿ってレッグ伸縮部材37を有している。レッグ伸縮部材37は、例えばサイドシート35の肌非対向面に長手方向に沿った伸長状態で固定されている。レッグ伸縮部材37が収縮すると、サイドシート35が撓んで複数の細かいシワ(レッグギャザー)を形成する。 Further, the absorbent main body 30 has leg elastic members 37 along the left and right side edges in the width direction of the absorbent main body 30 in addition to the above configuration. The leg elastic member 37 is fixed to the skin non-facing surface of the side sheet 35 in an extended state along the longitudinal direction, for example. When the leg elastic member 37 contracts, the side sheet 35 bends to form a plurality of fine wrinkles (leg gathers).
[連結部]

[Connecting part]
The disposable diaper 100 which concerns on this invention is further provided with the connection part 40 for connecting the absorptive main body 30 to both the front body exterior body 10, the back body exterior body 20, or any one exterior body. In the embodiment described in the present specification, as the connecting portion 40, the front side connecting member 40 </ b> A that connects the absorbent main body 30 and the front body exterior body 10, and the back after connecting the absorbent main body 30 and the rear body exterior body 20. A side connecting member 40B is provided. In addition, in this invention, the connection part 40 should just be provided in at least one of the front body 1 side and the back body 2 side. In particular, it is preferable that the connecting portion 40 is provided with at least one connecting the absorbent main body 30 and the back body exterior body 20.
 また、図3の断面図に示されるように、本実施形態において、前側連結部材40Aは、前身頃外装体10及び吸収性本体30とは別体の部材であり、同様に、後側連結部材40Bは、後身頃外装体20及び吸収性本体30とは別体の部材である。ただし、図示は省略するが、前側連結部材40A(連結部40)は、前身頃外装体10と一体の部材として形成されていてもよい。同様に、後側連結部材40B(連結部40)は、後身頃外装体20と一体の部材として形成されていてもよい。 As shown in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 3, in the present embodiment, the front side connecting member 40A is a separate member from the front body exterior body 10 and the absorbent main body 30, and similarly, the rear side connecting member 40B is a separate member from the back body exterior body 20 and the absorbent main body 30. However, although illustration is omitted, the front side connecting member 40 </ b> A (the connecting portion 40) may be formed as a member integrated with the front body exterior body 10. Similarly, the rear side connecting member 40 </ b> B (the connecting portion 40) may be formed as a member integrated with the rear body exterior body 20.
 図2及び図3に示されるように、前側と後側の各連結部材40A,40Bは、各外装体10,20及び吸収性本体30の肌非対向面側に配置され、幅方向において各外装体10,20とほぼ同じ幅に形成されている。本実施形態では、各連結部材40A,40Bは、平面視において幅方向に長い略矩形状に形成されている。各連結部材40A,40Bは各外装体10,20の長手方向の一部と重畳し、当該重畳部分を除く部分で、各連結部材40A,40Bの幅方向両端部がサイドシールされている。すなわち、各連結部材40A,40Bの幅方向の左右両端部は各外装体10,20と当該重畳部分を除く部分にサイドシール部4が設けられている。また、各外装体10,20の幅方向両端部は各連結部材40A,40Bと重畳部分を除く部分がサイドシール部4となっている。前側連結部材40Aと後側連結部材40Bが、この左右のサイドシール部4において互いに接合されることでパンツ型をなす。 As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the front and rear connecting members 40A and 40B are arranged on the skin non-facing surface side of each of the exterior bodies 10 and 20 and the absorbent main body 30, and each exterior in the width direction. It is formed to have substantially the same width as the bodies 10 and 20. In this embodiment, each connection member 40A, 40B is formed in a substantially rectangular shape that is long in the width direction in plan view. Each connecting member 40A, 40B overlaps with a part in the longitudinal direction of each exterior body 10, 20, and the width direction both ends of each connecting member 40A, 40B are side-sealed at a portion excluding the overlapping portion. That is, the side seal portions 4 are provided on the left and right ends in the width direction of the connecting members 40A and 40B at portions other than the exterior bodies 10 and 20 and the overlapping portion. Further, both end portions in the width direction of the exterior bodies 10 and 20 are side seal portions 4 except for the overlapping portions of the connecting members 40A and 40B. The front side connecting member 40A and the rear side connecting member 40B are joined to each other at the left and right side seal portions 4 to form a pants shape.
 図3に示されるように、各連結部材40A,40Bは、略断面N字型に折り畳まれており、各連結部材40A,40Bの上端において肌対向面側の領域が各外装体10,20に接合され、各連結部材40A,40Bの下端において肌対向面側の領域が吸収性本体30に接合されている。具体的に説明すると、連結部材40A,40Bは、着用状態において上向きに凸となる山折部41と、着用状態において下向きに凸となる谷折部42とを有する。本実施形態では、山折部41と谷折部42を比較すると、相対的に、山折部41が肌非対向面側に位置し、谷折部42が肌対向面側に位置している。これらの山折部41と谷折部42は、各連結部材40A,40Bの幅方向に沿って直線状に延びている。従って、これらの山折部41及び谷折部42に沿って折り畳むことで、各連結部材40A,40Bは略断面N字型となり、3層に積層する部分を含むものとなる。本願明細書では、山折部41及び谷折部42に沿って折り畳み可能となった各連結部材40A,40Bの構造を、「タック」と称している。本実施形態では、各連結部材40A,40Bは略断面N字型としたが、これに限定されず、略断面逆N字型や、タックを複数有する構造としてもよい。 As shown in FIG. 3, each of the connecting members 40A and 40B is folded into a substantially cross-sectional N shape, and the skin facing surface side region at the upper end of each of the connecting members 40A and 40B is formed in each of the exterior bodies 10 and 20. The area | region of the skin opposing surface side is joined to the absorptive main body 30 in the lower end of each connection member 40A, 40B. If demonstrating it concretely, 40A, 40B will have the mountain fold part 41 which protrudes upwards in a wearing condition, and the valley fold part 42 which protrudes downward in a wearing condition. In the present embodiment, when the mountain fold 41 and the valley fold 42 are compared, the mountain fold 41 is relatively located on the skin non-facing surface and the valley fold 42 is located on the skin facing surface. These mountain folds 41 and valley folds 42 extend linearly along the width direction of the connecting members 40A and 40B. Therefore, by folding along the mountain fold portion 41 and the valley fold portion 42, each of the connecting members 40A and 40B has a substantially N-shaped cross section and includes a portion laminated in three layers. In the present specification, the structure of each of the connecting members 40A and 40B that can be folded along the mountain fold 41 and the valley fold 42 is referred to as “tack”. In the present embodiment, each of the connecting members 40A and 40B has a substantially cross-sectional N-shape, but is not limited thereto, and may have a substantially cross-section inverted N-shape or a structure having a plurality of tacks.
 また、図3に示されるように、各連結部材40A,40Bは、山折部41及び谷折部42を境界線として、中間領域43と、内側領域44と、外側領域45とに区分することができる。中間領域43は、山折部41と谷折部42との間に位置する領域である。また、内側領域44は、谷折部42から各外装体10,20側に向かって上方に延び、当該外装体の肌非対向面側に接合された接合部位44aを有する領域である。なお、図3の例では、内側領域44の全域が接合部位44aとなっているが、内側領域44は少なくとも一部が各外装体10,20に接合されていればよい。また、外側領域45は、山折部41から吸収性本体30側に向かって下方に延び、当該吸収性本体30の肌非対向面側に接合される接合部位45aを持つ領域である。なお、図3の例では、外側領域45の下端側(股下部側)の領域の一部が接合部位45aとなっているが、外側領域45はその全域が吸収性本体30に接合されていてもよい。ここで説明した各接合部位44a,45aは、ホットメルト接着剤などの公知の接着剤を利用して実現できる。なお、外側領域45の接合部位45aは、後述する吸収性本体30の接合部位30bと範囲が重複している。 Further, as shown in FIG. 3, each of the connecting members 40 </ b> A and 40 </ b> B can be divided into an intermediate region 43, an inner region 44, and an outer region 45 with the mountain fold 41 and the valley fold 42 as boundaries. it can. The intermediate region 43 is a region located between the mountain fold 41 and the valley fold 42. Moreover, the inner side area | region 44 is an area | region which has the joining site | part 44a extended upward toward the each exterior body 10 and 20 side from the valley fold part 42, and joined to the skin non-facing surface side of the said exterior body. In the example of FIG. 3, the entire inner region 44 is a joint portion 44 a, but it is only necessary that at least a part of the inner region 44 is joined to each of the exterior bodies 10 and 20. The outer region 45 is a region having a joint portion 45 a that extends downward from the mountain fold 41 toward the absorbent main body 30 and is joined to the skin non-facing surface side of the absorbent main body 30. In the example of FIG. 3, a part of the region on the lower end side (the crotch side) of the outer region 45 is a bonding portion 45 a, but the entire outer region 45 is bonded to the absorbent main body 30. Also good. Each joint part 44a and 45a demonstrated here is realizable using well-known adhesives, such as a hot-melt-adhesive. In addition, the joining site | part 45a of the outer side area | region 45 has overlapped the range with the joining site | part 30b of the absorptive main body 30 mentioned later.
 図3に示した例において、各連結部材40A,40Bの内側領域44は、各外装体10,20の長手方向の下端部の肌非対向面に接合されている。また、各連結部材40A,40Bの外側領域45は、吸収性本体30の長手方向の上端部の肌非対向面に接合されている。このようにして、各連結部材40A,40Bは、各外装体10,20と吸収性本体30と連結するように作用する。なお、ここでは、各連結部材40A,40Bの内側領域44が各外装体10,20の下端側に接合されている例を示している。ただし、この内側領域44は、各外装体10,20の上端側に接合することもできる。内側領域44を各外装体10,20の肌非対向面のどの位置に接合するかは、ある程度自由に設計可能である。 In the example shown in FIG. 3, the inner regions 44 of the connecting members 40 </ b> A and 40 </ b> B are joined to the skin non-facing surfaces at the lower end portions in the longitudinal direction of the exterior bodies 10 and 20. Further, the outer region 45 of each of the connecting members 40 </ b> A and 40 </ b> B is joined to the skin non-facing surface of the upper end portion in the longitudinal direction of the absorbent main body 30. In this way, the connecting members 40A and 40B act so as to connect the exterior bodies 10 and 20 and the absorbent main body 30. Here, an example is shown in which the inner region 44 of each of the connecting members 40A and 40B is joined to the lower end side of each of the exterior bodies 10 and 20. However, the inner region 44 can be joined to the upper end side of each of the exterior bodies 10 and 20. The position where the inner region 44 is joined to the skin non-facing surface of each of the exterior bodies 10 and 20 can be designed freely to some extent.
 また、図2に戻って説明すると、各連結部材40A,40Bは、山折部41及び谷折部42において折り畳まれた状態となっている。この状態で、中間領域43は、幅方向の全域のうちの少なくとも一部分において、その肌対向面側に対面する部位に対して剥離可能に接合された接合領域43aを有している。また、図2に示した例では、中間領域43には接合領域43aが部分的に形成されており、その部分を除く部分が非接合領域43bとなっている。例えば、図3の例を参照して説明すると、中間領域43の肌対向面側には内側領域44が位置しており、図2に示した接合領域43aにおいては、少なくとも中間領域43と内側領域44とが接合されている。なお、接合領域43aにおいて、中間領域43は、内側領域44に代えて、あるいは内側領域44と共にその肌非対向面側に位置する外側領域45あるいは吸収性本体30と接合されていてもよい。このように、接合領域43aにおいて、各連結部材40A,40Bは、折り畳まれた状態に固定されて、不用意に展開しないように制限されている。この接合領域43aを剥離することで、各連結部材40A,40Bを展開させることが可能となる。なお、図3は、この非接合領域43bにおける縦断面図を示している。 Further, referring back to FIG. 2, the connecting members 40 </ b> A and 40 </ b> B are folded at the mountain fold 41 and the valley fold 42. In this state, the intermediate region 43 has a joint region 43a that is detachably joined to a portion facing the skin facing surface side in at least a part of the entire region in the width direction. In the example shown in FIG. 2, a joining region 43 a is partially formed in the intermediate region 43, and a portion other than that portion is a non-joining region 43 b. For example, referring to the example of FIG. 3, the inner region 44 is located on the skin facing surface side of the intermediate region 43, and at least the intermediate region 43 and the inner region are present in the bonding region 43 a shown in FIG. 2. 44 is joined. In addition, in the joining area | region 43a, it replaces with the inner side area | region 44, or the inner side area | region 44 may be joined with the outer side area | region 45 or the absorptive main body 30 located in the skin non-facing surface side with the inner side area | region 44. Thus, in the joining area | region 43a, each connection member 40A, 40B is fixed to the folded state, It is restrict | limited so that it may not expand | deploy carelessly. By peeling off the joining region 43a, the connecting members 40A and 40B can be developed. FIG. 3 shows a longitudinal sectional view of the non-bonding region 43b.
 図2においては、概念的に接合領域43aに網掛けを施して示している。ここに示された例では、接合領域43aは、各連結部材40A,40Bと各外装体10,20が厚み方向に重なった領域のうち、吸収性本体30が位置する領域の幅方向左右両側に設けられており、吸収性本体30とは重ならないように配置されている。つまり、平面視において、各外装体10,20、各連結部材40A,40B、及び吸収性本体30が重なる部位の長手方向範囲は、非接合領域43bとなっている。このように、接合領域43aは、吸収性本体30と重ならない範囲で、幅方向に一定の幅を持つ領域として画定されていてもよい。ただし、パンツ型おむつにおいては、前述したサイドシール部4自体が接合領域43aとして機能する。このため、パンツ型おむつでは、サイドシール部4とは別にホットメルト接着剤などを利用して、連結部材40A,40Bと各外装体10,20とを接合する必要性は必ずしもないといえる。つまり、図2において網掛けで示した接合領域43aは省略可能である。 In FIG. 2, the joining region 43a is conceptually shaded. In the example shown here, the joining regions 43a are on the left and right sides in the width direction of the region where the absorbent main body 30 is located, in the region where the connecting members 40A and 40B and the exterior bodies 10 and 20 overlap in the thickness direction. It is provided and is arranged so as not to overlap with the absorbent main body 30. That is, in a plan view, a longitudinal range of a portion where each of the exterior bodies 10 and 20, each of the connecting members 40 </ b> A and 40 </ b> B, and the absorbent main body 30 overlaps is a non-joining region 43 b. As described above, the bonding region 43a may be defined as a region having a certain width in the width direction as long as it does not overlap the absorbent main body 30. However, in the pants-type diaper, the above-described side seal portion 4 itself functions as the joining region 43a. For this reason, in a pants-type diaper, it can be said that it is not always necessary to join the connecting members 40 </ b> A and 40 </ b> B and the exterior bodies 10 and 20 using a hot melt adhesive or the like separately from the side seal portion 4. That is, the joining region 43a shown by hatching in FIG. 2 can be omitted.
 上記の構成によれば、吸収性本体30と外装体10,20の間に連結部40を別体で設けタックを形成することで、タックの展開性が良化される。つまり、吸収性本体30が引っ張られたときに、連結部40が追従してタックが展開するため、タックを展開させやすくなるといえる。そして、タックが展開されれば、タックが着用者の着ている衣服等によって押されたときにポンプの様に機能して、おむつの内部に溜まった湿気を排出する効果も期待できる。また、各連結部材40A,40Bによって、各外装体10,20と吸収性本体30を連結しておくことで、タックをなす各連結部材40A,40Bを展開させたときに、各外装体10,20と吸収性本体30とを長手方向に離間させ、使い捨ておむつの長手方向に伸長させることができる。図4及び図5は、接合領域43aを剥離することで各連結部材40A,40Bが展開して、これらの連結部材によって画定されていた空間が広がり、各外装体10,20と吸収性本体30とが離間した様子を概念的に示している。このように、必要に応じて各連結部材40A,40Bのタックが展開可能な構成となっていることで、着用者の動きに応じて各外装体10,20や吸収性本体30が追従するようになり、着用者の肌とおむつの間に隙間が生じることを効果的に防止できる。また、着用者の肌に対するおむつのフィット性が高まるため、着用感が向上する。前述した接合領域43aが長手方向に剥離可能なものである場合、この接合領域43aを剥離させることで、図4及び図5に示したように各連結部材40A,40Bを展開させることができる。 According to the above-described configuration, the deployability of the tack is improved by providing the connecting portion 40 separately between the absorbent main body 30 and the exterior bodies 10 and 20 to form a tack. That is, it can be said that when the absorbent main body 30 is pulled, the connecting portion 40 follows and the tack is developed, so that the tack is easily developed. And if a tack | tuck is expand | deployed, when a tack | tuck is pushed by the clothes etc. which a wearer wears, it will function like a pump and the effect which discharges the moisture accumulated in the inside of a diaper can also be anticipated. Further, by connecting the respective exterior bodies 10, 20 and the absorbent main body 30 by the respective connection members 40A, 40B, when the respective connection members 40A, 40B forming a tack are unfolded, the respective exterior bodies 10, 20 and the absorptive main body 30 can be spaced apart in the longitudinal direction and extended in the longitudinal direction of the disposable diaper. In FIGS. 4 and 5, the connecting members 40 </ b> A and 40 </ b> B are expanded by peeling off the joining region 43 a, and the space defined by these connecting members is expanded, and the exterior bodies 10 and 20 and the absorbent main body 30 are expanded. Conceptually shows the state of being separated from each other. Thus, it becomes the structure which can expand | deploy the connection members 40A and 40B as needed, so that each exterior body 10 and 20 and the absorptive main body 30 track according to a wearer's motion. Thus, it is possible to effectively prevent a gap from being generated between the wearer's skin and the diaper. Moreover, since the fitting property of the diaper with respect to a wearer's skin increases, a feeling of wear improves. When the joint region 43a described above is peelable in the longitudinal direction, the connecting members 40A and 40B can be developed as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 by peeling the joint region 43a.
 また、図2に示されるように、各連結部材40A,40Bを山折部41及び谷折部42沿って完全に折り畳んだ状態において、各外装体10,20が、吸収性本体30の長手方向の端部の肌対向面を覆うことが好ましい。つまり、幅方向に沿って延びる各連結部材40A,40Bの山折部41(図3参照)と、長手方向に沿って延びる接合領域43aの縁と、中間領域43と、外側領域45とにより、下向きの開口部を持つ空間が画定される。そして、この空間内に吸収性本体30の長手方向の端部を収容することができる。また、図示は省略するが、ここで画定された空間内に、吸収性本体30を構成する吸収体31の長手方向端部が収容されていてもよい。これにより、吸収性本体30の長手方向に沿って流れてきた体液や軟便を空間内に収容することが可能となり、外部への漏れ出すことを防止できる。 Further, as shown in FIG. 2, in a state where the connecting members 40 </ b> A and 40 </ b> B are completely folded along the mountain fold 41 and the valley fold 42, the exterior bodies 10 and 20 are in the longitudinal direction of the absorbent main body 30. It is preferable to cover the skin facing surface at the end. That is, the mountain-folded portion 41 (see FIG. 3) of each of the connecting members 40A and 40B extending along the width direction, the edge of the joint region 43a extending along the longitudinal direction, the intermediate region 43, and the outer region 45 are directed downward. A space having a plurality of openings is defined. And the edge part of the longitudinal direction of the absorptive main body 30 can be accommodated in this space. Moreover, although illustration is abbreviate | omitted, the longitudinal direction edge part of the absorber 31 which comprises the absorptive main body 30 may be accommodated in the space defined here. Thereby, it becomes possible to accommodate the bodily fluid and the soft stool which flowed along the longitudinal direction of the absorptive main body 30, and can prevent leaking outside.
 なお、中間領域43は、接合領域43aにおいて、内側領域44又は外側領域45に対して、剥離不能に接合してもよい。この場合には、非接合領域43bにおいては、中間領域43が肌対向面側及び肌非対向面側に位置する部位に対して接合されていないため、各連結部材40A,40Bは必要に応じて自由に展開することが可能である。この場合、例えば着用者が運動を始めると、非接合領域43bにおいて各連結部材40A,40Bのタックが展開する。着用者の運動により、各連結部材40A,40Bの非展開状態と展開状態が繰り返されると、各連結部材によって画定される空間が広がったり狭まったりするために、各連結部材のタック部分がポンプの様に機能して、この空間内に溜まった空気を排出していく。このようにしてタックの展開を利用することで、各連結部材40A,40Bの空間内に溜まった湿気を容易に排出し、タックが形成された部位の通気性を高めることができる。また、連結部材40A,40Bの幅方向の左右両端部にも外装体10,20との重畳部分を除いてサイドシールをしたが、当該重畳部分を外装体10,20と共に剥離可能又は剥離不能にサイドシールしてもよい。当該重畳部分を外装体10,20と共にサイドシールした場合、接合領域43aを省略することができる。また、連結部材40A,40Bの幅方向の左右両端部の長手方向全域を外装体10,20とは別に剥離不能にサイドシールするようにしてもよい。 The intermediate region 43 may be bonded to the inner region 44 or the outer region 45 in the bonding region 43a so as not to be peeled off. In this case, in the non-joining region 43b, since the intermediate region 43 is not joined to the part located on the skin facing surface side and the skin non-facing surface side, the connecting members 40A and 40B are provided as necessary. It is possible to develop freely. In this case, for example, when the wearer starts exercising, the tack of each of the connecting members 40A and 40B is developed in the non-joining region 43b. When the non-deployed state and the unfolded state of each connecting member 40A, 40B are repeated by the wearer's movement, the space defined by each connecting member expands or narrows. It functions like this and exhausts the air accumulated in this space. By utilizing the development of the tack in this manner, the moisture accumulated in the space of each connecting member 40A, 40B can be easily discharged, and the air permeability of the portion where the tack is formed can be enhanced. Moreover, although the side seal was carried out except the overlapping part with the exterior bodies 10 and 20 also at the left and right ends in the width direction of the connecting members 40A and 40B, the overlapping part can be peeled off together with the exterior bodies 10 and 20 or cannot be peeled off. A side seal may be used. When the overlapping portion is side-sealed together with the exterior bodies 10 and 20, the joining region 43a can be omitted. Further, the entire longitudinal direction of the left and right end portions of the connecting members 40A and 40B in the width direction may be side-sealed separately from the exterior bodies 10 and 20 so as not to be peeled off.
 このように、中間領域43とその対面部位を接合する接合領域43aは、剥離可能な仮接合と剥離不能な接合のいずれであってもよい。ここで説明した接合領域43aにおける剥離可能な仮接合と剥離不能な接合は、いずれもホットメルト接着剤などの公知の接着剤を利用して実現することができ、その接着剤の塗布量や接着力を調整して剥離可能なものと剥離不能なものを選択すればよい。剥離可能な接合状態とは、例えば、予め剥離することが想定されており、中間領域43やその対面部位を構成するシート部材に裂損や破損を生じさせずに両者を剥離することのできる接合状態を意味する。これに対して、剥離不能な接合状態とは、例えば、予め剥離することが想定されておらず、剥離しようとすると中間領域43やその対面部位を構成するシート部材に裂損や破損が生じる接合状態を意味する。なお、接合領域43aは中間領域43の幅方向全域に亘っていてもよいが、その場合、接合領域43aは、中間領域43をその対面部位に対して剥離可能に接合(すなわち仮接合)するものである。また、接合領域43aは中間領域43をその対面部位に対して剥離不能に接合するものであってもよいが、その場合、接合領域43aは、中間領域43の幅方向に部分的に設けられたものとなる。 As described above, the joining region 43a joining the intermediate region 43 and the facing portion thereof may be either a detachable temporary joining or a non-peelable joining. Both the detachable temporary bonding and the non-peelable bonding in the bonding region 43a described here can be realized by using a known adhesive such as a hot-melt adhesive, and the application amount and adhesion of the adhesive What is necessary is just to select what can peel and what cannot peel by adjusting force. The detachable joining state is assumed to be peeled in advance, for example, and can join both the intermediate region 43 and the sheet member constituting the facing portion without causing breakage or breakage. Means state. On the other hand, the non-peelable joining state is, for example, a joint that is not supposed to be peeled in advance, and tearing or breakage occurs in the sheet member constituting the intermediate region 43 or the facing portion when it is peeled off. Means state. The joining region 43a may extend over the entire width direction of the intermediate region 43. In this case, the joining region 43a joins the intermediate region 43 to the facing part so as to be peelable (that is, temporarily joined). It is. In addition, the joining region 43a may be one that joins the intermediate region 43 to the facing portion so as not to be peeled off. In that case, the joining region 43a is partially provided in the width direction of the intermediate region 43. It will be a thing.
[連結部のシート積層構造]
 続いて、図6を参照して、連結部40(連結部材40A,40B)を構成するシート部材等の構造について説明する。図6は、図3に示した後側連結部材40Bの周囲を拡大して示したものである。以下では、後側連結部材40Bの構造を例に上げて説明するが、ここで説明する後側連結部材40Bの構造は前側連結部材40Aにも適用することができる。
[Sheet stacking structure of connecting part]
Then, with reference to FIG. 6, structures, such as a sheet member which comprises the connection part 40 ( connection member 40A, 40B), are demonstrated. FIG. 6 is an enlarged view of the periphery of the rear connecting member 40B shown in FIG. Hereinafter, the structure of the rear connection member 40B will be described as an example, but the structure of the rear connection member 40B described here can be applied to the front connection member 40A.
 図6に示されるように、後側連結部材40Bは、厚み方向に少なくとも2枚のシート部材が積層された構造を有している。つまり、図6に示した例において、後側連結部材40Bは、防漏シート51と、その肌非対向面側に貼り合わされた外面シート52を有している。防漏シート51は、後身頃外装体20と吸収性本体30に直接接合されており、この防漏シート51の肌非対向面に外面シート52が接合されている。 As shown in FIG. 6, the rear connecting member 40B has a structure in which at least two sheet members are laminated in the thickness direction. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 6, the rear connecting member 40 </ b> B has a leak-proof sheet 51 and an outer surface sheet 52 bonded to the skin non-facing surface side. The leak-proof sheet 51 is directly joined to the back body exterior body 20 and the absorbent main body 30, and the outer sheet 52 is joined to the non-skin facing surface of the leak-proof sheet 51.
 防漏シート51は、液不透過性のシート部材であり、後側連結部材40Bから体液が漏れ出すことを防止する目的で配置されている。防漏シート51は、前述したバックシート33と同様に、ポリエチレン樹脂などからなるプラスチックフィルムを採用することが好ましい。特に、防漏シート51としては、後側連結部材40Bの通気性を確保するために、0.1~4μmの微細な孔が複数形成された微多孔性ポリエチレンフィルムを用いることが好ましい。防漏シート51が通気性及び液不透過性を有するシート部材で形成されていることで、後側連結部材40Bに達した体液の漏れを防止しつつ、この部位に蒸れが発生するのを抑制することができる。 The leak-proof sheet 51 is a liquid-impermeable sheet member, and is disposed for the purpose of preventing body fluid from leaking from the rear connection member 40B. The leak-proof sheet 51 is preferably a plastic film made of polyethylene resin or the like, like the back sheet 33 described above. In particular, as the leakage preventing sheet 51, it is preferable to use a microporous polyethylene film in which a plurality of fine pores of 0.1 to 4 μm are formed in order to ensure the air permeability of the rear side connecting member 40B. Since the leak-proof sheet 51 is formed of a sheet member having air permeability and liquid impermeability, it is possible to prevent the body fluid from reaching the rear connection member 40B from being leaked and to suppress the occurrence of stuffiness. can do.
 外面シート52は、主として不織布から構成されたシート部材であり、防漏シート51の肌非対向面における手触りを良化する目的で配置されている。ここで用いられる不織布は特に限定されないが、エアスルー不織布、ポイントボンド不織布、スパンボンド不織布、エアレイド不織布、メルトブロー不織布、SMS不織布、SMMS不織布などを挙げることができる。基本的に、外面シート52としては、液透過性及び通気性を有し手触りの良いシート部材が採用される。 The outer surface sheet 52 is a sheet member mainly composed of a non-woven fabric, and is disposed for the purpose of improving the feel of the leak-proof sheet 51 on the non-skin facing surface. Although the nonwoven fabric used here is not specifically limited, An air through nonwoven fabric, a point bond nonwoven fabric, a spun bond nonwoven fabric, an airlaid nonwoven fabric, a melt blown nonwoven fabric, an SMS nonwoven fabric, an SMMS nonwoven fabric, etc. can be mentioned. Basically, as the outer sheet 52, a sheet member having liquid permeability and air permeability and good touch is adopted.
 また、図3から図6に示されるように、本実施形態において、前側と後側の各連結部材40A,40Bは、山折部41に沿って配置された一又は複数の連結部伸縮部材46を有していることが好ましい。連結部伸縮部材46は、糸状弾性ゴムなどの弾性伸縮部材であり、使い捨ておむつの幅方向に沿った伸長状態で山折部41に配置されている。前述したとおり、各連結部材40A,40Bは、防漏シート51と外面シート52とを積層して構成されているため、この連結部伸縮部材46は防漏シート51と外面シート52の間に固定すればよい。この山折部41に沿って連結部伸縮部材46を配置しておくことで、この連結部伸縮部材46の収縮作用により、各連結部材40A,40Bの中間領域43と各外装体10,20との間に隙間が生じにくくなる。このため、おむつの外観が良くとともに、フィット性が向上する。 Further, as shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, in the present embodiment, each of the front and rear connecting members 40 </ b> A and 40 </ b> B includes one or a plurality of connecting portion elastic members 46 arranged along the mountain fold 41. It is preferable to have. The connection part expansion / contraction member 46 is an elastic expansion / contraction member such as a thread elastic rubber, and is disposed in the mountain fold part 41 in an extended state along the width direction of the disposable diaper. As described above, since each of the connecting members 40A and 40B is configured by laminating the leak-proof sheet 51 and the outer sheet 52, the connecting portion expansion / contraction member 46 is fixed between the leak-proof sheet 51 and the outer sheet 52. do it. By arranging the connecting portion expansion / contraction member 46 along the mountain-folded portion 41, the contracting action of the connecting portion expansion / contraction member 46 causes the intermediate region 43 of each connection member 40 </ b> A, 40 </ b> B and each exterior body 10, 20. It becomes difficult to produce a gap between them. For this reason, the appearance of the diaper is good and the fit is improved.
 また、図1及び図2に示されるように、各連結部材40A,40Bには、幅方向に沿って延びる複数のタミー伸縮部材47が、長手方向に所定の間隔を空けて配置されている。タミー伸縮部材47は、幅方向に沿って伸張した状態で各連結部材40A,40Bに固定されている。ただし、タミー伸縮部材47は、各連結部材40A,40Bの幅方向の中央には配置されていないか、若しくは伸縮性を発現しないように例えば部分的に切断されている。つまり、タミー伸縮部材47は、基本的に吸収性本体30の幅方向両側に位置することとなる。なお、吸収性本体30の幅方向両端にタミー伸縮部材47が一部重なっていてもよい。各タミー伸縮部材47は、前述した連結部伸縮部材46と同様に、防漏シート51と外面シート52の間に固定すればよい。タミー伸縮部材47が収縮すると、連結部材40A,40Bが撓んで複数の細かいシワ(タミーギャザー)を形成する。 Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, each connecting member 40A, 40B is provided with a plurality of tammy stretchable members 47 extending along the width direction at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction. The tammy expansion and contraction member 47 is fixed to each of the connecting members 40A and 40B in a state of extending along the width direction. However, the Tammy stretchable member 47 is not disposed at the center in the width direction of each of the connecting members 40A and 40B, or is partially cut so as not to exhibit stretchability. That is, the Tammy stretchable member 47 is basically located on both sides of the absorbent main body 30 in the width direction. In addition, the tammy stretchable member 47 may partially overlap the both ends of the absorbent main body 30 in the width direction. Each tammy elastic member 47 may be fixed between the leak-proof sheet 51 and the outer surface sheet 52 in the same manner as the connecting part elastic member 46 described above. When the tammy expansion and contraction member 47 contracts, the connecting members 40A and 40B are bent to form a plurality of fine wrinkles (tammy gathers).
[連結部と吸収性本体の接合構造]
 続いて、図6から図8を参照して、連結部40(前側連結部材40A,後側連結部材40B)と吸収性本体30の接合構造について、さらに詳しく説明する。図6の断面図は、後側連結部材40Bと吸収性本体30の接合構造を示している。また、図7(a)は、吸収性本体30の平面図であり、図7(b)は、VII-VIIの切断線における吸収性本体30の縦断面図である。また、図8は、VIII-VIIIの切断線における吸収性本体30の横断面図を示している。
[Junction structure of connecting part and absorbent body]
Subsequently, with reference to FIG. 6 to FIG. 8, the joining structure of the connecting portion 40 (the front connecting member 40A and the rear connecting member 40B) and the absorbent main body 30 will be described in more detail. The cross-sectional view of FIG. 6 shows a joining structure of the rear side connecting member 40 </ b> B and the absorbent main body 30. FIG. 7A is a plan view of the absorbent main body 30, and FIG. 7B is a longitudinal sectional view of the absorbent main body 30 taken along the line VII-VII. FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of the absorbent main body 30 taken along the line VIII-VIII.
 図6及び図7(b)に示されるように、吸収性本体30は、長手方向のウエスト開口部5側の端部に、各連結部材40A,40Bの肌対向面に対して接合されていない非接合部位30aを有している。つまり、吸収性本体30は、長手方向端部に設けられた非接合部位30aにおいて、各連結部材40A,40Bに接合されずに離間している。この吸収性本体30の非接合部位30aは、吸収性本体30の端部の幅方向全域に亘っておらずに幅方向の一部にのみ形成されていてもよいが、吸収性本体30の端部の幅方向全域に亘っていることが好ましい。この場合、吸収性本体30の長手方向端部は、幅方向全域に亘って各外装体40A,40Bに対して一切接合されていないこととなる。なお、図6では、非接合部位30aの領域における肌非対向面側から肌対向面側にかけて、外面シート52、防漏シート51、カバーシート34、バックシート33、吸収体31及びトップシート32が順に存在する構成となっている(吸収体31の先端部が非接合部位30aの領域にまで届いている)が、股下部3側から連結部40側に向かう吸収体31の先端部が非接合部位30aの領域にまで届いていなくてもよい。即ち、非接合部位30aの領域における肌非対向面側から肌対向面側にかけて、外面シート52、防漏シート51、カバーシート34、バックシート33及びトップシート32が順に存在する構成であってもよい。 6 and 7B, the absorbent main body 30 is not joined to the skin facing surfaces of the connecting members 40A and 40B at the end on the side of the waist opening 5 in the longitudinal direction. It has a non-joining part 30a. That is, the absorptive main body 30 is separated without being joined to each of the connecting members 40A and 40B in the non-joined portion 30a provided at the end portion in the longitudinal direction. Although the non-joining part 30a of this absorptive main body 30 may not be formed over the whole width direction of the edge part of the absorptive main body 30, but may be formed only in a part of the width direction, It is preferable to cover the entire width direction of the part. In this case, the longitudinal direction edge part of the absorptive main body 30 will not be joined at all with respect to each exterior body 40A, 40B over the whole width direction. In FIG. 6, the outer surface sheet 52, the leak-proof sheet 51, the cover sheet 34, the back sheet 33, the absorber 31, and the top sheet 32 are formed from the skin non-facing surface side to the skin facing surface side in the region of the non-joined part 30 a. It has a configuration that exists in order (the tip of the absorber 31 reaches the region of the non-joined part 30a), but the tip of the absorber 31 from the crotch 3 side toward the connecting portion 40 side is not joined. It does not need to reach the region 30a. That is, even if the outer surface sheet 52, the leak-proof sheet 51, the cover sheet 34, the back sheet 33, and the top sheet 32 exist in this order from the non-skin facing surface side to the skin facing surface side in the region of the non-bonded portion 30a. Good.
 他方で、吸収性本体30は、非接合部位30aよりも長手方向の股下部3側において、各連結部材40A,40Bの肌対向面に対して全面的又は部分的に接合された接合部位30bを有している。この接合部位30bは、吸収性本体30の端部の幅方向全域に亘っておらずに幅方向の一部にのみ形成されていてもよいが、吸収性本体30の幅方向全域に亘っていることが好ましい。また、図6に示されるように、吸収性本体30は、各連結部材40A,40Bと厚み方向に重なる領域のうち、前述した非接合部位30aを除いた領域において、各連結部材40A,40Bに対して全面的に接合されていることが好ましいといえる。このように、吸収性本体30は、長手方向のウエスト開口部5側の端部において連結部40から部分的に離間しており、その他の部分において連結部40に対して接合されている。ここで説明した吸収性本体30の接合部位30bは、例えばホットメルト接着剤などの公知の接着剤を利用して実現できる。なお、吸収性本体30の接合部位30bは、前述した各連結部材40A,40Bの外側領域45の接合部位45aと範囲が重複している。また、図6では、接合部位30bの領域における肌非対向面側から肌対向面側にかけて、外面シート52、防漏シート51、接合部位30b、カバーシート34、バックシート33、吸収体31及びトップシート32が順に存在する(積層される)構成となっている(吸収体31の先端部が接合部位30bの領域にまで届いている)が、股下部3側から連結部40側に向かう吸収体31の先端部が接合部位30bの領域にまで届いていなくてもよい。即ち、接合部位30bの領域における肌非対向面側から肌対向面側にかけて、外面シート52、防漏シート51、接合部位30b、カバーシート34、バックシート33及びトップシート32が順に存在する構成であってもよい。また、股下部3側から連結部40側に向かう吸収体31の先端部が接合部位30bの領域内にあるように、前記吸収体31の先端部が接合部位30bの領域にまで届いていてもよい。 On the other hand, the absorptive main body 30 has a joint part 30b joined to the skin facing surface of each of the connecting members 40A and 40B on the crotch part 3 side in the longitudinal direction from the non-joint part 30a. Have. Although this junction part 30b may be formed only in a part of the width direction, not across the entire width direction of the end of the absorbent main body 30, it extends over the entire width direction of the absorbent main body 30. It is preferable. Moreover, as FIG. 6 shows, the absorptive main body 30 is in each connection member 40A, 40B in the area | region except the non-joining site | part 30a mentioned above among the area | regions which overlap with each connection member 40A, 40B in the thickness direction. On the other hand, it can be said that the entire surface is preferably joined. Thus, the absorptive main body 30 is partially separated from the connecting portion 40 at the end portion on the side of the waist opening 5 in the longitudinal direction, and is joined to the connecting portion 40 at other portions. The joining portion 30b of the absorbent main body 30 described here can be realized by using a known adhesive such as a hot melt adhesive. In addition, the joining part 30b of the absorptive main body 30 overlaps with the joining part 45a of the outer region 45 of each of the connecting members 40A and 40B described above. Moreover, in FIG. 6, the outer surface sheet 52, the leak-proof sheet 51, the joining part 30b, the cover sheet 34, the back sheet 33, the absorber 31, and the top from the skin non-facing face side to the skin facing face side in the region of the joining part 30b. The sheet 32 has a structure in which the sheets 32 are present (stacked) in order (the tip of the absorber 31 reaches the region of the joining portion 30b), but the absorber is directed from the crotch 3 side toward the connecting portion 40 side. The tip part of 31 does not need to reach the region of the joining site 30b. That is, in the structure where the outer surface sheet 52, the leak-proof sheet 51, the bonding portion 30b, the cover sheet 34, the back sheet 33, and the top sheet 32 exist in this order from the non-skin facing surface side to the skin facing surface side in the region of the bonding portion 30b. There may be. Even if the tip of the absorber 31 reaches the region of the joint part 30b so that the tip of the absorber 31 from the crotch 3 side toward the connecting part 40 is in the region of the joint part 30b. Good.
 図7(b)において、吸収性本体30が後側連結部材40Bと厚み方向に重なる範囲の長さを符号Lで示している。また、吸収性本体30の後側連結部材40Bに対する非接合部位30aの長さを符号Lで示し、吸収性本体30の後側連結部材40Bに対する接合部位30bの長さを符号Lで示している。例えば、重畳範囲の長さLに対する非接合部位30aの長さL(L/L)は、1%以上であることが好ましく、例えば1~50%がより好ましく、5~45%がさらに好ましく、又は10~40%が特に好ましい。具体的な数値を示すと、非接合部位30aの長さLは、1mm以上であることが好ましく、例えば3~100mmがより好ましく、5~30mmがさらに好ましく、10~25mmがより更に好ましく、又は10~20mmであることが特に好ましい。なお、接合部位30bの長さLは、重畳範囲の長さLから非接合部位30aの長さLを差し引いた値とすればよい。また、ここでは、後側連結部材40Bに対する吸収性本体30の非接合部位30a及び接合部位30bの長さについて説明したが、ここでの説明は前側連結部材40Aに対する吸収性本体30の非接合部位30a及び接合部位30bの長さについても適用できる。ただし、吸収性本体30は、後側連結部材40Bに対する非接合部位30a及び接合部位30bの長さと、前側連結部材40Aに対する非接合部位30a及び接合部位30bの長さが、異なっていてもよいし同じであってもよい。 In FIG. 7 (b), shows a length ranging the absorbent body 30 overlaps the rear connecting member 40B in the thickness direction by the reference numeral L 1. Further, the length of the nonbonding portion 30a against the side connecting member 40B of the absorbent body 30 indicated by reference numeral L 2, the length of the joint portion 30b against the side connecting member 40B of the absorbent body 30 indicated by reference numeral L 3 ing. For example, the length L 2 (L 2 / L 1 ) of the non-bonded portion 30a with respect to the length L 1 of the overlapping range is preferably 1% or more, for example, more preferably 1 to 50%, and more preferably 5 to 45%. Is more preferable, or 10 to 40% is particularly preferable. When showing a specific numerical values, the length L 2 of the non-joint portions 30a is preferably 1mm or more, for example more preferably 3 ~ 100 mm, more preferably 5 ~ 30 mm, more preferably more that 10 ~ 25 mm, Or 10 to 20 mm is particularly preferable. The length L 3 of the junction 30b may be the length L 1 of the overlapping range as a value obtained by subtracting the length L 2 of the nonbonding portion 30a. Moreover, although the length of the non-joining part 30a and the joining part 30b of the absorptive main body 30 with respect to the back side connection member 40B was demonstrated here, description here is a non-joining part of the absorptive main body 30 with respect to the front side connection member 40A. It is applicable also about the length of 30a and the junction part 30b. However, as for the absorptive main body 30, the length of the non-joining part 30a and the joining part 30b with respect to the rear side connection member 40B may differ from the length of the non-joining part 30a and the joining part 30b with respect to the front side connection member 40A. It may be the same.
 前述のとおり、本実施形態に係る使い捨ておむつ100は、各連結部材40A,40Bはタックが形成されているため、このようなタックが形成されていない通常の使い捨ておむつと比較すると、タックが形成された部分における通気性がやや劣ると考えられる。そこで、上記構成のように、吸収性本体30の長手方向の端部を各連結部材40A,40Bから離間させることで、吸収性本体30の端部と連結部40との間に隙間が生じやすくなるため、タック付近における通気性を向上させることができる。このようにすれば、連結部40にタックを形成して必要に応じて展開可能な構成を採用した場合であっても、タック付近に溜まった湿気を効率的に排出することができ、この部位に蒸れが発生するのを抑制することができる。つまり、吸収性本体30の非接合部位30aには、通気性向上の効果がある。 As described above, in the disposable diaper 100 according to the present embodiment, since each of the connecting members 40A and 40B is formed with a tack, the tack is formed as compared with a normal disposable diaper in which such a tack is not formed. It is considered that the air permeability in the part is slightly inferior. Therefore, as in the above-described configuration, the gap between the end of the absorbent main body 30 and the connecting portion 40 is likely to occur by separating the end of the absorbent main body 30 in the longitudinal direction from the connecting members 40A and 40B. Therefore, the air permeability in the vicinity of the tack can be improved. In this way, even when a tack is formed in the connecting portion 40 and a configuration that can be deployed as needed is adopted, moisture accumulated in the vicinity of the tack can be efficiently discharged. It is possible to suppress the occurrence of stuffiness. That is, the non-bonded portion 30a of the absorbent main body 30 has an effect of improving the air permeability.
 また、図7(a)及び図8に示されるように、吸収性本体30は、立体ギャザー伸縮部材36によって形成された左右一対の立体ギャザーと、レッグ伸縮部材37によって形成された左右一対のレッグギャザーを有している。図8に示されるように、本実施形態において、立体ギャザーとレッグギャザーは、それぞれ一枚のシート部材(サイドシート35)を立体ギャザー伸縮部材36とレッグ伸縮部材37によって収縮させることで形成されるものである。具体的に説明すると、図8に示されるように、サイドシート35の一部は、バックシート33の裏面(肌非対向面)に固定されている。また、バックシート33の裏面に一部固定されたサイドシート35を、吸収体31の長手方向に沿って、トップシート32とバックシート33の接合位置よりも幅方向外側において、吸収性本体3の内方に向かって折り返し、外側折返部35aを形成する。また、外側折返部35aにおいて折り返されたサイドシート35の一部を、トップシート32とバックシート33を挟み込むように、トップシート32の表面(肌対向面)上に固定する。さらに、サイドシート35は、トップシート32との固定部35bより幅方向内側にも延在している。ここにいう「固定部」とは、サイドシート35がトップシート32に対して固定されている部位と、サイドシート35がトップシート32に固定されずに自由になっている部位との境界線である。また、サイドシート35の固定部35bよりも幅方向内側に延在している部分が、吸収体31の幅方向内方又は幅方向外方に向かって折り返され、内側折返部35cを形成する。そして、サイドシート35の内側折返部35cには、使い捨ておむつの長手方向に沿って立体ギャザー伸縮部材36が固定されている。同様に、サイドシート35の外側折返部35aには、使い捨ておむつの長手方向に沿ってレッグ伸縮部材37が固定される。また、レッグ伸縮部材37は、サイドシート35とバックシート33の間に固定されていてもよい。これにより、立体ギャザー伸縮部材36が収縮したときに立体ギャザーが形成され、レッグ伸縮部材37が収縮したときにレッグギャザーが形成されることとなる。 As shown in FIGS. 7A and 8, the absorbent main body 30 includes a pair of left and right three-dimensional gathers formed by a three-dimensional gather elastic member 36 and a pair of left and right legs formed by a leg elastic member 37. Have a gather. As shown in FIG. 8, in this embodiment, the three-dimensional gather and the leg gather are formed by contracting one sheet member (side sheet 35) by the three-dimensional gather expansion / contraction member 36 and the leg expansion / contraction member 37, respectively. Is. If it demonstrates concretely, as FIG. 8 shows, a part of side sheet 35 is being fixed to the back surface (skin non-opposing surface) of the back sheet | seat 33. As shown in FIG. Further, the side sheet 35 that is partially fixed to the back surface of the back sheet 33 is disposed on the outer side of the absorbent body 3 in the width direction from the joining position of the top sheet 32 and the back sheet 33 along the longitudinal direction of the absorber 31. The outer folded portion 35a is formed by folding inward. Further, a part of the side sheet 35 folded back at the outer folded portion 35a is fixed on the surface (skin facing surface) of the top sheet 32 so as to sandwich the top sheet 32 and the back sheet 33 therebetween. Further, the side sheet 35 extends also inward in the width direction from the fixing portion 35 b with the top sheet 32. Here, the “fixed portion” is a boundary line between a portion where the side sheet 35 is fixed to the top sheet 32 and a portion where the side sheet 35 is free without being fixed to the top sheet 32. is there. Moreover, the part extended in the width direction inner side rather than the fixing | fixed part 35b of the side seat | sheet 35 is return | folded toward the width direction inner side or the width direction outer side of the absorber 31, and forms the inner side folding | returning part 35c. And the three-dimensional gather expansion-contraction member 36 is being fixed to the inner side folding | returning part 35c of the side sheet 35 along the longitudinal direction of a disposable diaper. Similarly, a leg elastic member 37 is fixed to the outer folded portion 35a of the side seat 35 along the longitudinal direction of the disposable diaper. The leg elastic member 37 may be fixed between the side sheet 35 and the back sheet 33. Thereby, a three-dimensional gather is formed when the three-dimensional gather expansion / contraction member 36 contracts, and a leg gather is formed when the leg expansion / contraction member 37 contracts.
 図7(a)に示されるように、立体ギャザー伸縮部材36及びレッグ伸縮部材37は、吸収性本体30の股下部3だけでなく、前身頃側及び後身頃側にも延在し、吸収性本体30の長手方向の端縁に達している。つまり、立体ギャザー伸縮部材36及びレッグ伸縮部材37は、吸収性本体30の長手方向の略全域に亘ってサイドシート35に固定されていることとなる。 As shown in FIG. 7A, the three-dimensional gather elastic member 36 and the leg elastic member 37 extend not only to the crotch 3 of the absorbent main body 30 but also to the front body side and the back body side, and absorb the absorbent body. It reaches the longitudinal edge of the main body 30. That is, the three-dimensional gather expansion / contraction member 36 and the leg expansion / contraction member 37 are fixed to the side seat 35 over substantially the entire region of the absorbent main body 30 in the longitudinal direction.
 図7(a)に示されるように、立体ギャザー伸縮部材36及びレッグ伸縮部材37は、吸収性本体30の股下部3から接合部位30bを超えて
非接合部位30aに達する長さを有している。このように、非接合部位30aにも立体ギャザー伸縮部材36とレッグ伸縮部材37の両方又は方を位置していることにより、これらの伸縮部材36,37が収縮したときに、この非接合部位30aが各連結部材36,37によって引っ張られて立ち上がる。吸収性本体30の非接合部位30aが立ち上がっている様子は、図7(b)に例示されている。このように、立体ギャザー伸縮部材36やレッグ伸縮部材37の収縮力を利用して吸収性本体30の非接合部位30aを立ち上がらせることで、この吸収性本体30の端部と各連結部材40A,40Bの間の隙間を維持できる。これにより、吸収性本体30の端部付近における通気性を向上させることができる。
As shown in FIG. 7A, the three-dimensional gather elastic member 36 and the leg elastic member 37 have a length that reaches the non-joining part 30a from the crotch part 3 of the absorbent main body 30 beyond the joining part 30b. Yes. As described above, since the three-dimensional gather expansion / contraction member 36 and the leg expansion / contraction member 37 or both of them are located also in the non-joined portion 30a, when these stretch members 36, 37 contract, the non-joined portion 30a. Is pulled up by the connecting members 36 and 37 and rises. A state in which the non-bonded portion 30a of the absorbent main body 30 stands up is illustrated in FIG. 7B. In this way, the non-joint portion 30a of the absorbent main body 30 is raised using the contraction force of the three-dimensional gather elastic member 36 and the leg elastic member 37, and the end of the absorbent main body 30 and each connecting member 40A, A gap between 40B can be maintained. Thereby, the air permeability in the vicinity of the end of the absorbent main body 30 can be improved.
 また、図7(a)に示されるように、立体ギャザー伸縮部材36が吸収性本体30の長手方向全域に亘って伸長状態で固定されている場合において、接合部位30bには、この立体ギャザー伸縮部材36の伸縮力を無効化させた無効化部36aが存在していてもよい。同様に、レッグ伸縮部材37についても、接合部位30bに、その伸縮力を無効化させた無効化部37aが存在していてもよい。つまり、各伸縮部材36,37は、図7(a)に示した無効化部36a,37aにおいて伸縮性を発現しないように処理されている。例えば、各伸縮部材36,37を無効化部36a,37aにおいて細かく切断することで、伸縮力を無効化してもよい。また、例えば、各伸縮部材36,37を無効化部36a,37aにおいて非伸長状態でサイドシート35に対して固定することで、伸縮力を無効化してもよい。各伸縮部材36,37の無効化部36a,37aは、吸収性本体30の接合部位30bに設ければよいが、この接合部位30bと非接合部位30aの境界付近に設けることが特に好ましい。具体的には、接合部位30bと非接合部位30aとの境界から10mmの範囲内に、各伸縮部材36,37の無効化部36a,37aの少なくとも一部が存在していることが好ましい。このように、吸収性本体30の接合部位30bにおいて部分的に各伸縮部材36,37の伸縮力を無効化することで、吸収性本体30が各伸縮部材36,37の収縮力を受けて大きく撓んだりヨレたりする現象を回避できる。これにより、吸収性本体30と着用者の肌のフィット性を維持することができる。 In addition, as shown in FIG. 7A, when the three-dimensional gather elastic member 36 is fixed in an extended state over the entire longitudinal direction of the absorbent main body 30, the three-dimensional gather expansion / contraction is provided at the joint portion 30 b. There may be a disabling part 36a in which the expansion / contraction force of the member 36 is invalidated. Similarly, also about the leg expansion / contraction member 37, the invalidation part 37a which invalidated the expansion / contraction force may exist in the joining site | part 30b. That is, each of the elastic members 36 and 37 is processed so as not to exhibit elasticity in the invalidating portions 36a and 37a shown in FIG. For example, the expansion / contraction force may be invalidated by finely cutting each of the expansion / contraction members 36 and 37 at the disabling units 36a and 37a. Further, for example, the expansion / contraction force may be invalidated by fixing the expansion / contraction members 36, 37 to the side seat 35 in the non-extension state in the invalidation portions 36a, 37a. The disabling parts 36a and 37a of the respective elastic members 36 and 37 may be provided at the joint part 30b of the absorbent main body 30, but it is particularly preferable to provide the invalidation parts 36a and 37a near the boundary between the joint part 30b and the non-joint part 30a. Specifically, it is preferable that at least a part of the disabling portions 36a and 37a of the respective elastic members 36 and 37 exist within a range of 10 mm from the boundary between the bonding site 30b and the non-bonding site 30a. As described above, the absorbent main body 30 receives the contraction force of each of the elastic members 36 and 37 in a large manner by partially invalidating the elastic force of each of the elastic members 36 and 37 at the joint portion 30b of the absorbent main body 30. The phenomenon of bending or twisting can be avoided. Thereby, the absorptive main body 30 and a wearer's skin fit can be maintained.
 なお、ここでは、立体ギャザー伸縮部材36及びレッグ伸縮部材37の両方が吸収性本体30の非接合部位30aに存在している例を示した。ただし、吸収性本体30の非接合部位30aには、立体ギャザー伸縮部材36とレッグ伸縮部材37もいずれか一方が位置していればよい。 In addition, here, an example in which both the three-dimensional gather elastic member 36 and the leg elastic member 37 are present in the non-bonded portion 30a of the absorbent main body 30 is shown. However, any one of the three-dimensional gather expansion / contraction member 36 and the leg expansion / contraction member 37 should just be located in the non-joining site | part 30a of the absorptive main body 30.
