Abstract

L'invention concerne un article absorbant capable de mieux fixer un espace pour recevoir des excréments sur le côté fesses pendant le port. Un article absorbant (10) a un sens avant-arrière, un sens de largeur orthogonal au sens avant-arrière, une région de taille avant (S1), une région de taille arrière (S2), une région d'entrejambe (S3) entre les régions de taille avant et arrière, et un noyau absorbant (51) disposé au moins dans la région d'entrejambe. Une ligne de pliage (FL) pour plier l'article absorbant dans la moitié s'étend dans le sens de la largeur dans la région d'entrejambe. Le noyau absorbant a une zone d'étranglement (CA) qui est rétrécie vers l'intérieur dans le sens de la largeur au moins dans la région d'entrejambe, et une paire de rainures (54) formées sur les deux côtés par rapport au centre de l'article absorbant dans le sensde la largeur. La zone d'étranglement s'étend dans le sens avant-arrière par rapport à la ligne de pliage. Le noyau absorbant a une partie d'élargissement arrière (54r) dans laquelle la distance entre la paire de rainures augmente avec la transition dans le sens arrière. Un bord d'extrémité avant (54s) de la partie d'élargissement arrière est situé dans la zone chevauchant la zone d'étranglement en amont de la ligne de pliage.
