In the sanitary napkin 10 of present embodiment, side, the skin contact face binding agent etc. of sheet 2 engages and is equipped with absorber 3 overleaf.In addition, the outside of longitudinal left and right sides of the above-mentioned absorber 3 in the side, skin contact face of this back sheet 2, sheet 2 is bonded to side sheet 4 overleaf.In the part that this back sheet abuts with side sheet, clip positive dough sheet 1 by back sheet 2 and side sheet 4, and towards interior side on the width (X-direction) of this sanitary napkin 10, positive dough sheet 1 is configured at than absorber 3 more by the position of side, skin contact face.Above-mentioned each chip part that such lamination obtains does not pass through the joints such as heat-sealing across absorber 3 ground in the foreign side of absorber 3, forms the edge, periphery 6 of sanitary towel 10.This edge, periphery 6 does not hinder overall retractility, and the degree do not revealed with the liquid temporarily absorbed is engaged.Form the pocket (not shown) of circumference 6 toward the outside at the free end 41 of side sheet 4, there is the effect preventing liquid etc. from laterally revealing.In addition, in the width left and right sides portion of the sanitary napkin 10 of present embodiment, the alar part 42 with side sheet 4 extends to the width foreign side of sanitary napkin 10, by this part being rolled up in the side, non-skin contact face of the crotch bottom of medicated underpants, sanitary napkin 10 is fixed on medicated underpants.
In the side, skin contact face of sanitary napkin 10, exert pressure to arrange from side, skin contact face to the absorber 3 of positive dough sheet 1 and compress the leakage-proof socket 5(that obtains and see figures.1.and.2).The plan view shape of leakage-proof socket 5 is, at longitudinal middle body of absorber 3, there is in the width left and right sides configuration of the excretory portion corresponding regions such as menses the compression section of length in the vertical, the center direction of each compression section in this left and right along with the front and back end close to absorber 3 gradually to absorber 3 bends, and in front end, rear end is consistent.That is, overlook see time, leakage-proof socket 5 is continuously the shape (with reference to Fig. 1) of endless loops for extending in the longitudinal direction at two compression sections of its side, skin contact face configuration in longitudinal both sides of sanitary napkin 10.
By such process, the transverse direction of discharged liquid when can effectively prevent wear sanitary napkins from using is revealed.In addition, excretory portion corresponding region refers to the part of the excretion directly receiving menses or leucorrhea etc. and neighbouring part thereof, and being the middle body of the longitudinal direction of the sanitary towel 10 of present embodiment, is the position being configured with alar part 42.In addition, the plan view shape of the leakage-proof socket 5 of present embodiment is not limited to above-mentioned shape, mutually can intersect, preferably suitably determine according to purposes in the front end of endless loops, rear end.
Carry out later describing about the material of positive dough sheet 1, back sheet 2, side sheet 4 and absorber 3 and the detailed content of size.In present embodiment, from the view point of positive dough sheet 1 rapidly absorbing and excreting liquid and be sent to the viewpoint of absorber and the comfortable of skin sense of touch, preferably use hydrophilic hot-wind nonwoven cloth.In addition, as back sheet 2, use the poisture-penetrability film with breathability of monolayer.As absorber 3, the material that core covering piece (not shown) the coated paper pulp fiber etc. for paper using etc. obtains with high water absorbency polymer.In addition, the side, non-skin contact face of sheet 2, is coated with the bonding agent (not shown) sanitary napkin 10 being fixed on medicated clothing overleaf.By this bonding agent, sanitary napkin 10 is bonded and fixed to the medicated clothing of user.The sanitary napkin 10 of present embodiment, makes its positive dough sheet side towards the side, skin contact face of wearer and makes it longitudinally from hypogastric region configuration to buttocks, and its width is dressed towards the direction configuration of the line connecting left and right lower limb.
In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, the face of the side with human contact is called skin side or skin contact face or front, the face with its opposition side is called non-skin face or non-skin contact face or the back side.In these two faces, the side near skin side or its extending direction are called side, skin face, side, skin contact face or face side, the side near non-skin face or its extending direction are called side, non-skin face, non-side, skin contact face or rear side.The direction be positioned on front side of human body during wearing is called front, using its end as leading section, the direction being positioned at rear side is called rear, using its end as rearward end, is described.The front of absorbent commodity or the normal direction at the back side are called thickness direction, are measured and be called thickness.In addition, by when overlooking absorbent commodity from veutro portion throughout crotch bottom until the direction of drosal part is called longitudinal direction, the direction orthogonal in this longitudinal direction is called width.In addition, above-mentioned longitudinal direction is consistent with the fore-and-aft direction of human body under typical wearing state.
The absorber 3 of present embodiment is the material obtained with the fine thing of mixed product of the coated paper pulp fiber of core covering piece and high water absorbency polymer.Absorber 3 at least has the high-density region 38 that absorber raw material (forming fiber and superabsorbent polymer) exists with the state of densification in the region corresponding with excretory portion, and the density regions 39 that absorber raw material exists with sparse state compared with high-density region 38.As shown in Fig. 3 (A), density regions 39 is continuous at in-plane, and high-density region 38 is surrounded by density regions 39, forms the configuration of the sea-island structure scattered.
On the thickness direction of density regions 39, as shown in Fig. 3 (B), be configured with by the interstitial recess 31 and be positioned at the recess absorbent portion 34 containing paper pulp fiber of bottom of its side, skin contact face from the side, side direction skin contact face, non-skin contact face of absorber 3 depression.As shown in Fig. 3 (B) and (C), recess 31 is corresponding with density regions 38, and the longitudinal direction in the side, non-skin contact face of absorber and width configure respectively.When the configuration of this longitudinal direction and width refers to and overlooks absorber 3, multiple recess 31 configures at predetermined intervals.Therefore, the row permutation configuration at predetermined intervals in the direction of the width of the recess extended in the vertical, configures in the permutation at predetermined intervals that is listed in longitudinally of the recess of width extension.
In addition, the row of recess 31 can be continuous print also can be interrupted.As shown in Fig. 3 (A) and (B), recess absorbent portion 34 is corresponding with recess 31 to be configured.This recess 31 and recess absorbent portion 34 are formed as through-liquid structure, do not return liquid by promptly being introduced to thickness direction by the liquid of the side, skin face of absorber 3, effectively promote liquid to the maintenance of outstanding absorbent portion 33 and fix.This point is carried out describing later.In addition, as on the thickness direction of high-density region 38 by the part that recess 31 surrounds, be divided into the outstanding absorbent portion 33(of multiple bulks of giving prominence to dough sheet 2 side of supporting or opposing with reference to Fig. 3 (B) and (C)).Outstanding absorbent portion 33, containing paper pulp fiber and water absorbent polymer, absorbs and keeps discharged liquid.
In present embodiment, the shape of each outstanding absorbent portion 33 is the roughly rectangular shape in the vertical with length.Being configured to of outstanding absorbent portion 33, from the top view viewed from the side, non-skin contact face of absorber 3, mutually to have gap s, r(of regulation in its natural state with reference to Fig. 3 (C)) mode in direction permutation configuration in length and breadth.This configuration is when multiple outstanding absorbent portion 33 being projected in longitudinal direction and width, in the configuration that its projection image of either direction is all overlapping.Absorber 3 entirety comprising this recess absorbent portion 34 and outstanding absorbent portion 33 is formed as not having jointed integrative-structure.
Be configured at the outstanding absorbent portion 33 of high-density region 39, the raw-material density of absorber is high compared with recess absorbent portion 34, capillary force is high, and be the part of the high grammes per square metre higher than recess absorbent portion 34 thickness, therefore, the absorption maintenance dose of liquid is also high.That is, outstanding absorbent portion 33 is mainly undertaken and is made liquid keep immobilized function.On the other hand, be configured at the recess absorbent portion 34 of density regions 38 compared with outstanding absorbent portion 33, density is relatively low, and is the part that Thickness Ratio gives prominence to the thin low grammes per square metre of absorbent portion 33.Therefore, the logical liquid resistance of recess absorbent portion 34, lower than outstanding absorbent portion 33, can not lose the pressure loss of liquid, make liquid promptly on the thickness direction of absorber 3 through.
For this point, with reference to Fig. 3 (B) be described, be configured with outstanding absorbent portion 33 absorber 3 high-density region 38 compared with, the grammes per square metre being configured with the density regions 39 of the absorber of recess 31 and recess absorbent portion 34 is low, and density is also low.Recess absorbent portion 34 introduces rapidly liquid (Fig. 3 (B) arrow a 1), the multiple outstanding absorbent portion 33 be adjacent is by the further absorbing fluid of its capillary force (Fig. 3 (B) arrow c 1), this liquid can be remained fixed in the position that the side, ratio skin face of absorber 3 is farther.
In addition, recess absorbent portion 34 is connected at in-plane with the part 33a of the side, skin contact face of outstanding absorbent portion 33, forms the continuous portion 35(of the side, skin contact face of absorber 3 with reference to Fig. 3 (B)).Continuous portion 35 is smooth shape relative to positive dough sheet 1.Formed the side, skin contact face of absorber 3 by smooth continuous portion 35, positive dough sheet 1 is good with contacting of absorber 3, and the liquid that have passed positive dough sheet 1 easily imports absorber 3.
For continuous portion 35, be described with reference to Fig. 3 (A), as mentioned above, continuous portion 35 is divided into the density regions 39 be made up of recess absorbent portion 34 and the high-density region 38 be made up of the part 33a of outstanding absorbent portion 33.In this continuous portion 35, by low grammes per square metre and the density regions 39 that low-density recess absorbent portion 34 is formed forms the drain path suppressing liquid maintenance dose, and, this density regions 39 is expanded continuously on the in-plane of absorber 3, thereby, it is possible to by the liquid from front sheet 1 on a large scale in promptly introduce inside (Fig. 3 (A) the arrow b of absorber 3 1).
Have passed the liquid of recess absorber 34, disperse in multiple outstanding absorbent portion 33 on the one hand, be sucked out, keep fixing (Fig. 3 (B) arrow c 1), on the other hand, be temporarily ingested (Fig. 3 (B) arrow c in recess 31 2).The Liquid Absorption of recess 31 of being ingested is held in outstanding absorbent portion 33.Certainly, also maintenance liquid can directly be absorbed from the part 33a (part in continuous portion 35) of outstanding absorbent portion 33.But in the disposable a large amount of excretion of the liquid of the high viscosities such as menses or when repeatedly draining, even if disposablely can not absorb maintenance by outstanding absorbent portion 33, also by being introduced into recess absorbent portion 34 rapidly, recess 31 plays the pooling feature temporarily keeping liquid.Further, as mentioned above, by being connected with recess 31 (with reference to Fig. 3 (C)) in the side, non-skin contact face of absorber 3, can liquid be made to move (Fig. 3 (C) arrow d at in-plane in the position more farther than positive dough sheet 1 1), absorb in multiple outstanding absorbent portion 33 reliably distributed on a large scale and keep (Fig. 3 (C) arrow d 2).
Such utilization comprises the through-liquid structure of recess absorbent portion 34 and recess 31, and liquid promptly takes in the inside of absorber 3 from positive dough sheet 1 side, can reliably be kept by absorption in outstanding absorbent portion 33.Thus, can the residual liquid of side, skin contact face of decrease uptake body 3, and not easily produce and return liquid from absorber 3 inside to positive dough sheet 1.
In the sanitary towel 10 of present embodiment, even if apply the pressure of thickness direction in wearing, the discharged liquid such as menses also not easily return liquid to positive dough sheet 1 side.A major reason is the sea-island structure that the mode existed in density regions 39 with above-mentioned high-density region 38 configures, make side, the skin contact face not residual liquid at positive dough sheet and absorber 3, be introduced in a thickness direction rapidly, remain secured to multiple outstanding absorbent portion 33.In addition, the through-liquid structure comprising above-mentioned recess absorbent portion 34 and recess 31 effectively plays and promotes that the effect of liquid is returned in the introducing of liquid and movement, suppression.
Specifically, the effect produced by following multiple effect can be thought: recess absorbent portion 34 does not keep liquid, is promptly incorporated into recess 31; The continuous print variable density that formed by the recess absorbent portion 34 as density regions and the outstanding absorbent portion 33 as high-density region 38 (can by the structural allocation of high amount of liquid high diffusivity), based on the diffusibility of appropriateness, the liquid not introducing recess completely is promptly spread at in-plane; The liquid of temporary transient introducing recess 31 moves to position relatively far away, the side, ratio skin contact face of absorber 3; By having the through-liquid structure of recess 31, make liquid movement rapidly in the side, non-skin contact face of absorber 3, absorb and be held in outstanding absorbent portion 33, therefore, the storage of recess 31 self is also constant many.In addition, by the existence of recess absorbent portion 34, the pressure putting on recess 31 is relaxed, and by this pressure, the movement of the liquid in the through-liquid structure with recess 31 is promoted, and this also can think one of reason.
In addition, absorber 3, owing to being support the form of its skin contact face to non-skin contact face with the outstanding absorbent portion 33 of high-density region 38, not easily occurs the distortion of the pressure of thickness direction, and suppression is returned to liquid and prevented twisted is effective.By the not residual liquid and promptly introduced recess 31 in positive dough sheet 1 side of absorber 3 like this, even if be subject to the pressure of thickness direction, liquid also effectively can be suppressed to the liquid that returns of positive dough sheet 1 side, obtain good dry feeling.In addition, the side, non-skin face of absorber 3 is the concaveconvex shape divided by recess 31 in length and breadth, thus, this part has the pliability of longitudinal direction and width, sanitary napkin 10 be suitable for the fluctuating in skin face " health fit " and follow well wearer action, to prevent that between skin " row is followed in action " in the gap of part extremely improves.

[the second embodiment]
Then, with reference to Fig. 6 ~ 8, the sanitary napkin as the second embodiment of absorbent commodity of the present invention is described.Fig. 6 is the axonometric chart cutting a part representing the sanitary napkin of the second embodiment as absorbent commodity of the present invention from direction, skin contact face.Fig. 7 is the II-II line section shown in Fig. 6.A part for the regulation section of the sanitary napkin shown in Fig. 6 is amplified the fragmentary cross-sectional view represented by Fig. 8.
Below, omit the part repeated with above-mentioned first embodiment, the second embodiment of the present invention is described.In addition, above-mentioned first embodiment and this second embodiment are not independent and exclusive relations, and such as, the second embodiment also can be included as the subordinate concept of above-mentioned first embodiment.In addition, invention and the invention of the second embodiment of the first embodiment form single inventive concept based on identical or corresponding specified features, there is relevant technical relation.The symbol identical to marks such as identical parts, omits the description (wherein, size and detailed position relationship are according to the accompanying drawing corresponding with each embodiment) sometimes.
The sanitary napkin 20 of the second embodiment is only positive dough sheet from the different of component parts of the sanitary napkin 10 of above-mentioned first embodiment.The positive dough sheet of the second embodiment is represented with symbol 21.Positive dough sheet 21 has the outstanding part of multiple rule in side, skin contact face and side, non-skin contact face, this protuberance is configured at the same position (with reference to Fig. 6 ~ 8) of side, skin contact face and side, non-skin contact face.The detailed content of positive dough sheet 21 is as described below.
The positive dough sheet 21 of present embodiment as shown in Figure 7, from lamination upper strata, side, skin contact face 11, this two fibre layers of lower floor 12 and being formed.
Upper strata 11, lower floor 12 are engaged by the crimping based on embossing in multiple embossed portion 15.Upper strata 11 is implemented embossing when overlooking in identical position with lower floor 12, caves in and form multiple valley in embossed portion 15.Like this, the region that the non-embossed portion between valley, i.e. embossed portion 15 surround forms teat 14.The teat 14a on upper strata 11 is outstanding to side, skin contact face, and the teat 14b of lower floor 12 is outstanding to side, non-skin contact face.This teat 14a and 14b is configured with multiple when overlooking regularly in the same position of upper strata 11 and lower floor 12 in the same manner as above-mentioned embossed portion 15, thus, is formed with multiple jog on upper strata 11 and lower floor 12 throughout whole region.Like this, overall as positive dough sheet 21, be formed with multiple jog throughout its whole region.
Form the embossed portion 15 of the valley of upper strata 11 and lower floor 12, the fiber being positive dough sheet 21 is by the part of densification, and compared with the teat 14 of positive dough sheet 21, fibre density is high, and capillary force is high.Thereby, it is possible to effectively make discharged liquid from positive dough sheet 21 to absorber 3 promptly through.Specifically, the part that the paragraphs of Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication 2004-166849 publication [0007] ~ [0045] is recorded can be used.
In present embodiment, the roughly cross shape (with reference to Fig. 6) that each embossed portion 15 is intersected for making two major axis.Be positioned at adjacent two embossed portion 15,15 of beeline, configure in the mode be present on the roughly extended line of its long axis direction.Thus, to be formed between embossed portion 15 and teat 14 towards multiple directions at positive dough sheet 21 and form the density gradient of fiber, the diffusion of the liquid of positive dough sheet 21 and improving to the permeability of the liquid of thickness direction.The shape of this embossed portion 15 and configuration, except the shape of present embodiment with except being configured to, also can be circular or square embossing is at random scattered, the density gradient that has and form fiber can be adopted and can realize liquid diffusion and to thickness direction rapid through shape and configuration.
Here, the feature of the above-mentioned absorber 3 that is divided describing sanitary napkin 20 in detail based on Fig. 8 and the dynamic action of positive dough sheet 21.A part for the regulation section of the sanitary napkin shown in Fig. 6 is amplified the fragmentary cross-sectional view represented by Fig. 8.In addition, multifarious in order to avoid figure, do not represent back sheet 2 and side sheet 4, the shape aligning dough sheet 21 schematically shows, and is not necessarily the shape identical with illustrated shape in enforcement of the present invention.
Positive dough sheet 21 is as described above by the capillary force utilizing density gradient, and the liquid of excretion is high to the liquid mobility of thickness direction, can make to be rapidly to absorber 3 from the liquid of body excretes and move.In addition, same position (with reference to Fig. 8) is formed in a thickness direction by the teat 14a on upper strata 11 and the teat 14b of lower floor 12, liquid is easy to move in the mode concentrating on a position in plane, even little liquid measure also imports to absorber 3, effectively to absorber 3 side through, so preferably.Particularly, upper strata 11 is different with fibre density in lower floor 12, and when the fibre density height of lower floor, liquid is easily stranded in the lower layer side of positive dough sheet, by forming the structure that liquid is concentrated, has by the shielding of positive dough sheet, the low effect returning fluidity raising dry feeling.Absorber 3 is described above, has multiple recess 31, be configured with recess absorbent portion 34 in its skin contact face in side, non-skin contact face.The logical liquid resistance of recess absorbent portion 34 lower than other absorber part, using this part as chamber, the liquid a of excretion 1thickness direction promptly towards absorber 3 is absorbed.Then, at the liquid of the thickness direction movement of absorber 3, wherein a part forms the mobile liquid a towards peritropous outstanding absorbent portion 33,33 2, other part becomes the storage solution a taking in recess 31 3.Like this, by from positive dough sheet 21 through liquid introduced, to a by recess absorbent portion 34 2and a 3dispersion, reduces at the maintenance dose of the face side of absorber, and logical liquid resistance reduces further.Thus, also can effectively suppress to return liquid to positive dough sheet 21.
Like this, the sanitary napkin 20 of this embodiment can play the performance of the positive dough sheet 21 of the high liquid permeability had to thickness direction fully by the high liquid permeability to thickness direction with the absorber 3 of recess 31, thus, realize suppressing the moisture taken in return liquid to skin, give good dry feeling to user.
As mentioned above, in sanitary towel 20, positive dough sheet 21 can make liquid concentrate while move, therefore, it is possible to reduce the liquid residue (raising dry feeling) of positive dough sheet 21, the part directly contacted with absorber 3 is few, therefore, it is possible to suppress to return liquid.In addition, in positive dough sheet 21 like this, the density regions 39 of absorber 3 and high-density region 38 are formed in side, skin contact face, the diffusible performance of the appropriateness so obtained by the continuous print variable density formed by the recess absorbent portion 34 of density regions 39 in above-mentioned effect and the outstanding absorbent portion 33 of high-density region 38, can improve the dry feeling of positive dough sheet 21 further.In addition, the above-mentioned continuous print variable density only formation around high-density region 38 of absorber 3, therefore, it is possible to do not show excessive diffusibility and can suppress leakage.
The material of positive dough sheet 21 and preferred manufacture method thereof is described following.
Positive dough sheet 21, such as, comprises the upper strata 11 be made up of non-thermal contraction fibrous material or the heat shrink temperature fiber higher than the fiber of lower floor, the lower floor 12 be made up of the perisystolic heat-shrinkable fibrous material that heat shrink temperature is higher than top fiber.
Make this upper strata 11 and lower floor 12 by the embossing of heat etc. with the post-heating of the pattern part of regulation or welding by entire surface, make lower floor 12 thermal contraction in the horizontal direction.Like this, due to upper strata 11, the embossed integration of lower floor 12, therefore, if lower floor 12 shrinks, then because upper strata 11 is integrated with lower floor 12 by embossing, also and then shrink.But thermal contraction does not occur on upper strata 11 or hot contraction ratio lower floor 12 is little, therefore, deform, this distortion presents convex protuberance on upper strata 11.Meanwhile, in lower floor 12 side also due to the displacement transfer on upper strata 11, also present convex protuberance in lower floor 12.Describe in detail, then by thermal welding that heat embossing produces, such as, upper strata 11 and lower floor 12 side pressure of the laminated body of the embossing face (side faces etc. of knurling rolls) arranged with predetermined pattern by multiple embossing pin with regulation shape and upper strata 11, lower floor 12 connect, and make undertaken by the formation fibers melt of the upper strata 11 at the position of each pin hot pressing, lower floor 12.By the teat 14 that upper strata 11 and lower floor 12 are formed, also the part of stretching out can be had in the mode covering embossed portion.

The positive dough sheet 21 of present embodiment as shown in Figure 10, is formed from the both sides fibrous layer of lamination upper strata, side, skin contact face 11, lower floor 12.
Upper strata 11, lower floor 12 are engaged by utilizing the crimping of embossing multiple embossed portion 15.Upper strata 11 is implemented embossing when overlooking in identical position with lower floor 12, caves in and form multiple valley in embossed portion 15.Like this, the region that the non-embossed portion between valley, i.e. embossed portion 15 surround, forms teat 14.The teat 14a on upper strata 11 is outstanding to side, skin contact face, and the teat 14b of lower floor 12 is outstanding to side, non-skin contact face.This teat 14a and 14b is configured with multiple when overlooking regularly in the same position of upper strata 11 and lower floor 12 in the same manner as above-mentioned embossed portion 15, thus, in upper strata 11 and lower floor 12, is formed with multiple jog throughout whole region.Like this, overall as positive dough sheet 21, be formed with multiple jog throughout its whole region.
Form the embossed portion 15 of the valley of upper strata 11 and lower floor 12, the fiber being positive dough sheet 21 is by the part of densification, and compared with the teat 14 of positive dough sheet 21, fibre density is high, and capillary force is high.Thereby, it is possible to effectively make discharged liquid from positive dough sheet 21 to absorber 3 promptly through.Specifically, the unit that the paragraphs of Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication 2004-166849 publication [0007] ~ [0045] is recorded can be used.
In present embodiment, the roughly cross shape that each embossed portion 15 is intersected for making two major axis.Be positioned at adjacent two embossed portion 15,15 of beeline, configure in the mode be present on the roughly extended line of its long axis direction.Thus, at positive dough sheet 21, formed between embossed portion 15 and teat 14 towards multiple directions and form the density gradient of fiber, the diffusion of the liquid of positive dough sheet 21 and improving to the permeability of the liquid of thickness direction.The shape of this embossed portion 15 and configuration, except the shape of present embodiment with except being configured to, also can be circular or square embossing is at random scattered, at random can adopt the density gradient that has and form fiber and can realize liquid diffusion and to thickness direction rapid through shape and configuration.
The absorber 3 of present embodiment is the material obtained with the fine thing of mixed product of the coated paper pulp fiber of core covering piece and water absorbent polymer.Absorber 3 at least arranges multiple recess 31 caved in a thickness direction from its side, side direction skin contact face, non-skin contact face in the region corresponding with excretory portion.On the longitudinal direction that this recess 31 is configured in absorber 3 respectively and width.When the configuration of this longitudinal direction and width refers to and overlooks absorber 3, multiple recess 31 is configured at predetermined intervals, in the row permutation configuration at predetermined intervals in the direction of the width of the recess of longitudinal extension, in the row permutation configuration at predetermined intervals in the vertical of the recess that width extends.In addition, the row of recess 31 can be continuous print also can be interrupted.The recess absorbent portion 34 containing paper pulp fiber is configured with in the bottom of the side, skin contact face of this recess 31.This configures the through-liquid structure that the recess 31 of many and the recess absorbent portion 34 corresponding with it are connected to form absorber 3 in a thickness direction in length and breadth.In the part of the absorber 3 that this recess 31 clips each other, be divided the outstanding absorbent portion 33 of multiple bulks of giving prominence to as dough sheet 2 side of supporting or opposing.Outstanding absorbent portion 33, containing paper pulp fiber and water absorbent polymer, absorbs and keeps discharged liquid.In present embodiment, the shape of each outstanding absorbent portion 33 is the roughly rectangular shape at long side direction with length.Being configured to of outstanding absorbent portion 33, from the top view viewed from the side, non-skin contact face of absorber 3, mutually to have gap s, r(of regulation with reference to Figure 11 in naturalness) mode in direction permutation configuration in length and breadth.This configuration is by multiple outstanding absorbent portion 33 when long side direction or width project, in the configuration that its projection image of either direction is all overlapping.By the above-mentioned through-liquid structure with recess 31, can, in the non-skin contact face of position, the i.e. absorber 3 more farther than positive dough sheet 21, the liquid such as menses be made to move to each outstanding absorbent portion 33 and promptly absorb maintenance.
As mentioned above, in the side, skin face of recess 31, as a part for absorber 3, the recess absorbent portion 34 that thickness is less than outstanding absorbent portion 33 is configured with.Recess absorbent portion 34 is connected at in-plane with part (top) 33a of the side, skin contact face of outstanding absorbent portion 33, forms the continuous portion 35 of the side, skin contact face of absorber 3.Continuous portion 35 is smooth shape relative to positive dough sheet 21.Absorber 3 entirety comprising this recess absorbent portion 34 and outstanding absorbent portion 33 is formed does not have jointed integrative-structure.Particularly in excretory portion corresponding region, except the compression section of leakage-proof socket 5, density is in fact roughly even as a whole.This in fact density roughly evenly refer to not have and to utilize when the molding of absorber 3 embossing to carry out compressing and wait and part that density uprises terrifically, mean the situation of the variable density slightly that the bias voltage (biasing) of parts when allowing the fine change of the density manufactured or sold by the goods of indivedual packing and foldings etc. causes.In addition, with region A(Figure 10 of the absorber 3 of the outstanding absorbent portion 33 of configuration) compared with, region B(Figure 10 of the absorber of configuration recess 31 and recess absorbent portion 34) grammes per square metre little.
The absorber 3 of present embodiment is smooth shape by having the side, skin contact face of the absorber 3 in continuous portion 35, and positive dough sheet 21 is good with contacting of absorber 3, and the liquid that have passed positive dough sheet 21 is easily imported on a large scale in absorber 3.Block outstanding absorbent portion 33 and recess absorber 34 are as described later, the top 33a of recess absorbent portion 34 and block outstanding absorbent portion 33 is linked to be planar in side, skin contact face and is formed, at the interface zone of recess absorbent portion 34 with block absorbent portion 33, there is not visible extreme density contrast in existing compression groove etc., but roughly uniform density, be made up of roughly the same materials such as paper pulp fibers, be planar when overlooking from side, skin contact face, time visual, can't see border.
Like this, in above-mentioned through-liquid structure, do not improve at recess absorbent portion 34 Midst density, thickness is thin and grammes per square metre is low, and therefore, the logical liquid resistance of liquid is low.Thus, recess absorbent portion 34 forms the drain path suppressing liquid maintenance dose, can promptly be introduced to absorber 3 inside by the liquid from front sheet 21.Have passed the liquid of recess absorbent portion 34, on the one hand, not having easily to move to the top 33a of outstanding absorbent portion 33 in the roughly uniform portion 35 continuously of the density of borderline region, promptly taken in by multiple outstanding absorbent portion 33, move in a thickness direction, be maintained.On the other hand, be present in the liquid of recess absorbent portion 34, be temporarily ingested as the recess 31 of spatial portion.The liquid of recess 31 of being ingested is absorbed is held in the adjacent bottom portions of outstanding absorbent portion 33.Certainly, from the part in the continuous portion 35 of the part 33a(of outstanding absorbent portion 33) also can directly absorb maintenance liquid.But in the disposable a large amount of excretion of the liquid of the high viscosities such as menses or when repeating excretion, even if disposablely can not absorb maintenance by outstanding absorbent portion 33, introduced rapidly by recess absorbent portion 34, recess 31 plays the pooling feature temporarily keeping liquid.Further, as mentioned above, be connected with recess 31 by the side, non-skin contact face at absorber 3, liquid can be moved in the position more farther than positive dough sheet 21, reliably absorb maintenance by each outstanding absorbent portion 33.Like this, by the through-liquid structure formed by recess absorbent portion 34 and recess 31, liquid is promptly introduced into the inside of absorber 3 from positive dough sheet 21 side, reliably can absorb and remain in outstanding absorbent portion 33.Thus, the residual liquid of the side, skin contact face at absorber 3 can be suppressed, and not easily produce and return liquid from absorber 3 inside to positive dough sheet 21.
In addition, by the through-liquid structure formed by recess absorbent portion 34 and recess 31, even if apply the pressure of thickness direction in the wearing of sanitary towel 30, the discharged liquid such as menses not easily return liquid to positive dough sheet 21 side.This can think the effect produced by following multiple effect: recess absorbent portion 34 does not keep liquid, and liquid is promptly introduced recess 31; The liquid of temporary transient introducing recess 31 moves to the position relatively far away than the side, skin contact face of absorber 3; By having the through-liquid structure of recess 31, making liquid movement rapidly in the side, non-skin contact face of absorber 3, absorbing and being held in outstanding absorbent portion 33, therefore, the storage of no more than recess 31 self.In addition, by the existence of recess absorbent portion 34, the pressure putting on recess 31 is relaxed, and by this pressure, the movement of the liquid in the through-liquid structure with recess 31 is promoted, and this also can think one of essential factor.By the positive dough sheet 21 side not residual liquid like this at absorber 3, be promptly incorporated into recess 31, even if be subject to the pressure of thickness direction, liquid also effectively can be suppressed to return liquid to positive dough sheet 21 side, obtain good dry feeling.In addition, the side, non-skin face of absorber 3 is the concavo-convex character divided by recess 31 in length and breadth, therefore, this part has pliability, sanitary napkin 30 fit skin face fluctuating " health fit " and follow well wearer action, prevent extremely to improve with " row is followed in action " in the gap of the part of skin.
In the present invention, the configuration of outstanding absorbent portion 33, except being configured to of present embodiment, also can suitably arrange according to purposes and function selecting, such as, also can be the staggered arrangement configuration of roughly half pitch (the above-mentioned projection image stagger viewed from long side direction and/or width).In addition, the shape of outstanding absorbent portion 33, except the shape of present embodiment, also suitably can adopt arbitrary shape according to purposes and function.In addition, embossing can be given from the positive dough sheet side of above-mentioned absorber of the present invention, form general leakage-proof socket.
As the manufacture method of absorber 3, the absorber raw material that such as can use paper pulp fiber or comprise paper pulp fiber and high water absorbency polymer disperses in atmosphere, these raw materials is attracted to the mould 50(of multiple juts 51 with the side face being located at long-pending fine drum etc. with reference to Fig. 5) the accumulation portion long-pending fine machine that makes it pile up or the fine machine of mixed product etc. carry out manufacturing (not shown).
Such as, as shown in Figure 5, separated by the jut 51 of Fig. 5 (a), the mixture of bulk paper pulp fibres 61 and high water absorbency polymer 62, when piling up gradually, then as shown in Fig. 5 (b), pile up and exceed the height of jut 51, forming the absorber precursor 70 of Fig. 5 (c).The part 74 that jut 51 is piled up forms the recess absorbent portion 34 of absorber 3, and the part 71 that there is jut 51 forms the recess 31 of absorber 3.The part 73 that accumulation recess between above-mentioned projection is piled up forms the projection absorbent portion 33 of absorber 3.Like this, long-pendingly finely the part 75 higher than jut 51 the continuous portion 35 of absorber 3 must be formed.Using coated for slim for the mixed product of the paper pulp fiber and absorbable polymer that the operate formation like this core covering piece (not shown) with being made up of paper or various non-woven fabrics etc. such as thin papers and as absorber 3.
The recess absorbent portion 34 of integrated like this absorber 3 and outstanding absorbent portion 33 do not apply compression and wait and formed, and thus, fibre density does not improve, and has density roughly uniformly as absorber 3.In addition, recess absorbent portion 34 due to its thickness thin, therefore grammes per square metre is lower than outstanding absorbent portion 33.Formed different from the compression by embossing etc., the logical liquid resistance of recess absorbent portion 34 is lower, easily makes liquid become rapid to the movement of thickness direction.In addition, the absorber 3 be integrally formed like this is not by the hard part that the compressions such as embossing are formed, and therefore, skin contact sense is good.Dress when there is the sanitary towel 30 of this absorber 3, hard part but experience the soft feeling of absorber 3 can not be felt by positive dough sheet 21.Further, in the part of recess 31, there is pliability, therefore, good wearing feeling can be obtained with body fit.
In order to such recess absorbent portion 34 suppresses the maintenance dose of liquid, liquid is promptly moved to recess 31, make recess 31 have the interim storage function of discharged liquid, make liquid not return liquid to positive dough sheet 21 side, the degree of depth (h of preferred recess 31 2) relative to the thickness thickness of absorber 31 (the outstanding) (h of absorber 3 1) ratio (%) (with reference to Figure 10) be 40 ~ 98%, be particularly preferably 30 ~ 70%, be more preferably 40 ~ 60%.By being formed as more than above-mentioned lower limit, can more effectively suppress to positive dough sheet residual liquid and return liquid, by being formed as below the upper limit, the liquid received by positive dough sheet can be made only broadly to move to outstanding absorbent portion 33.For the same reason, the region B(with recess absorbent portion 34 and recess 31 is with reference to Figure 10) constituent material grammes per square metre (w 1) be preferably 30 ~ 160g/m 2, more preferably 50 ~ 150g/m 2.The region A(with outstanding absorbent portion 33 is with reference to Figure 10) grammes per square metre (w 2) be preferably 180 ~ 400g/m 2, be more preferably 200 ~ 300g/m 2.In addition, both grammes per square metre ratio (w 1/ w 2) be preferably 0.1 ~ 0.8, be more preferably 0.3 ~ 0.6.
In the present invention, recess 31 caves in and interstitial part from the bottom of absorber 3 to side, skin contact face.Recess absorbent portion 34 is parts of the absorber 3 on the top being positioned at this recess 31, is the part (with reference to Figure 12) of the absorber 3 that imaginary line s, the s extended at thickness direction by 31a, 31a bottom wall divides.Outstanding absorbent portion 33 is adjacent with the region B of the recess 31 arranged in a thickness direction and recess absorbent portion 34, the part (with reference to Figure 10 and Figure 12) of the region A of top to the bottom of the absorber surrounded by region B.
Thickness (the h of the recess absorbent portion 34 of such definition 3) and the thickness (h of outstanding absorbent portion 33 1) be determined as follows and carry out: be 37mm × 37mm by size, the acrylate plate of thickness 3mm be placed on absorber core 10, use KEYENCE Inc. non-contacting Laser Displacement meter (LaserHead LK-G30, displacement meter LK-GD500), measure the thickness (h comprising the outstanding absorbent portion 33 of top 33a 1), use KEYENCE Inc. microscope VHX-1000 to measure the section being equivalent to Figure 10 of absorber, measure the thickness (h of recess absorbent portion 34 3).
In addition, the grammes per square metre (w of recess absorbent portion 34 1) and the grammes per square metre (w of outstanding absorbent portion 33 2) assay method be: pressing FEATHER Inc. razor (FEATHER Razor S, single-blade), cut out the recess absorbent portion 34 of recess, carry out weight measurement, divided by cutting out the area of part to calculate grammes per square metre, similarly, cut out the outstanding absorbent portion 33 comprising top 33a, carry out weight measurement, divided by cutting out the area of part to calculate grammes per square metre.
In the present embodiment, the high water absorbency polymer of absorber 3 inside exists equably, but, liquid is returned in order to effectively suppress further, this water absorbent polymer preferably more bias be configured in the part than the outstanding absorbent portion 33 more on the lower of the continuous portion 35 containing recess absorbent portion 34, be not more preferably configured in continuous portion 35 containing recess absorbent portion 34 but in outstanding absorbent portion 33 more bias be configured in its side, non-skin face.In addition, the preferred side, non-skin face at recess 31 also configures water absorbent polymer from the same viewpoint.
In addition, in the absorber 3 of present embodiment, preferably until the part of foreign side of width of leakage-proof socket 5 arranges have the through-liquid structure of recess 31.By this configuration, reduce the goods flexural rigidity being axle with the width of goods, make it be easy to coupling to be out of shape from crotch to the body curvature of the wearer of buttocks, and, pliability is also given in absorber 3 both sides of revealing easily causing side, under it can be made to be suitable for the crotch of wearer, the action can following the health of wearer prevents gap.
Here, the absorber 3 of above-mentioned division of the sanitary napkin 30 of present embodiment and the feature of the dynamic action of positive dough sheet 21 is described in detail based on Figure 12.A part for the regulation section of the sanitary napkin shown in Fig. 9 is amplified the fragmentary cross-sectional view represented by Figure 12.In addition, multifarious in order to avoid figure, do not represent back sheet 2 and side sheet 4, the shape aligning dough sheet 21 schematically shows, is not necessarily the shape identical with illustrated shape in enforcement of the present invention.
The positive dough sheet 21 of present embodiment is as described above by the capillary force utilizing density gradient, and the liquid mobility to thickness direction of the liquid drained is high, can make to be rapidly to absorber 3 from the liquid of body excretes and move.In addition, formed (with reference to Figure 12) in same position in a thickness direction by the teat 14a on upper strata 11 and the teat 14b of lower floor 12, easily make liquid with concentrating on a position mobile in plane, even a small amount of liquid measure also imports to absorber 3, effectively to absorber 3 side through, so preferably.Particularly, upper strata 11 is different with fibre density in lower floor 12, and when the fibre density height of lower floor, liquid is easily stranded in the lower layer side of positive dough sheet, by forming the structure that liquid is concentrated, has by the shielding of positive dough sheet, the low effect returning fluidity raising dry feeling.Absorber 3 is described above, has multiple recess 31, be configured with recess absorbent portion 34 in its skin contact face in side, non-skin contact face.The logical liquid resistance of recess absorbent portion 34 lower than the logical liquid resistance of other absorber part, using this part as chamber, by the liquid a drained 1thickness direction promptly to absorber 3 is absorbed.Then, at the liquid of the thickness direction movement of absorber 3, wherein a part forms the mobile liquid a of peritropous outstanding absorbent portion 33,33 2, another part becomes the storage solution a be ingested in recess 31 3.Like this, by from positive dough sheet 21 through liquid introduced, to a by recess absorbent portion 34 2and a 3dispersion, reduces at the maintenance dose of the face side of absorber, and logical liquid resistance reduces further.Thus, also can effectively suppress to return liquid to positive dough sheet 21.
Like this, the sanitary napkin 30 of this embodiment can play the performance of the positive dough sheet 21 of the liquid high-permeability had to thickness direction fully by the high liquid permeability to thickness direction with the absorber 3 of recess 31, thus, what realize suppressing the moisture that is ingested to skin returns liquid, gives good dry feeling to user.
The outstanding absorbent portion 33 of present embodiment and the size and shape of recess 31 are not particularly limited, slightly different according to the purposes of the absorbent commodity used, the long side direction length k of outstanding absorbent portion 33 1(with reference to Figure 11), gradually bend to skin contact face from promotion at standard shaft absorber, the viewpoint that the shape along the health of wearer makes recess be out of shape is set out, and is preferably 10 ~ 30mm, is more preferably 15 ~ 25mm.Its width length k 2, from the view point of relaxing the compression stress from width applied absorber at wearing center dant, being preferably 5 ~ 20mm, being more preferably 7 ~ 15mm.In addition, the long side direction length s of recess 31 is preferably 1 ~ 5mm, is more preferably 1 ~ 3mm.Width length r is preferably 1 ~ 5mm, is more preferably 1 ~ 3mm.
The material of positive dough sheet 21 and preferred manufacture method thereof is described following.
Positive dough sheet 21, such as, comprise the upper strata 11 be made up of non-thermal contraction fibrous material or the heat shrink temperature fiber higher than the fiber of lower floor, the lower floor 12 be made up of the perisystolic heat-shrinkable fibrous material that heat shrink temperature is higher than top fiber.
This upper strata 11 and lower floor 12 are heated after welding with the pattern part of regulation ground or by entire surface by the embossing of heat etc., makes lower floor 12 thermal contraction in the horizontal direction.Like this, due to upper strata 11, the embossed integration of lower floor 12, therefore, if lower floor 12 shrinks, upper strata 11, due to integrated with lower floor 12 by embossing, is also and then shunk.But thermal contraction does not occur on upper strata 11 or hot contraction ratio lower floor 12 is little, therefore, deform, this distortion presents convex protuberance on upper strata 11.Meanwhile, in lower floor 12 side also due to the displacement transfer on upper strata 11, also present convex protuberance in lower floor 12.Describe in detail, based on the thermal welding of heat embossing, such as, upper strata 11 and lower floor 12 side pressure of the laminated body of the embossing face (side faces etc. of knurling rolls) arranged with predetermined pattern by multiple embossing pin with regulation shape and upper strata 11, lower floor 12 connect, and make undertaken by the formation fibers melt of the upper strata 11 in the position of each pin hot pressing, lower floor 12.By the teat 14 that upper strata 11 and lower floor 12 are formed, also outstanding part can be had in the mode covering embossed portion.
The thermal contraction of lower floor 12, such as, lower floor 12 is made up of heat-shrinkable fiber or contains heat-shrinkable fiber in lower floor 12, while making upper strata 11 and lower floor 12 thermal welding or after making the two thermal welding, by carrying out heat treated to carry out to middle level 12.Like this, by making lower floor 12 thermal contraction in the horizontal direction, the protuberance formative of the teat formed on upper strata 11 and lower floor 12 is high, can obtain the positive dough sheet 21 that more bulk skin contact is good.When the fibrous layer of such lamination bilayer forms positive dough sheet 21, good from the view point of the liquid permeability to thickness direction of positive dough sheet 21, preferably between the fibrous layer of this bilayer, do not form interface.
As upper strata 11 and lower floor 12, such as, the net formed by comb and parallel cotton fibers prior to spinning method or bulk non-woven fabrics is preferably used.The net formed by comb and parallel cotton fibers prior to spinning method refer to non-woven fabrics before the fiber assembly of state.That is, be in do not implement to use when manufacturing non-woven fabrics the post processing that comb and parallel cotton fibers prior to spinning net is applied, such as utilize hot blast method or rolling process to implement the state of heat welded process, the fiber assembly of the fiber extremely loosely state of tangle up each other.When using as upper strata 11 and lower floor 12 net formed by comb and parallel cotton fibers prior to spinning method, while making upper strata 11 and lower floor 12 engage or after engaging, make the fiber thermally welding in upper strata 11 and lower floor 12.In addition, as loose non-woven fabrics, can enumerate hot-wind nonwoven cloth, air-laid nonwoven fabrics, resin bonded non-woven cloth etc., the formation fiber on upper strata 11 does not preferably have in fact the fiber of heat-shrinkable or below the heat shrink temperature of the formation fiber of lower floor 12, does not carry out the fiber of thermal contraction.The grammes per square metre on upper strata 11, from the view point of forming the viewpoint of sufficient density gradient and making the skin contact sense of positive dough sheet 21 good, is preferably 10 ~ 50g/m 2, be more preferably 15 ~ 40g/m 2.
