  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The male urine absorbent article 1 according to the present embodiment is an auxiliary absorption that is attached to the wearer's penis 2 and absorbs urine inside an outer (exterior article such as a disposable diaper or pants) worn by the wearer. It is a tool. In the following description, for convenience of explanation, the top sheet 31 side is “upper” or “front”, and the backsheet 32 side is “lower” or “back”.

  The configuration of the male urine absorbent article 1 will be described with reference to FIG. 1 or FIG. FIG. 1 is a plan view illustrating a configuration of a male urine absorbent article 1 in a natural state (unused state) according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA in FIG. It is sectional drawing which cut | disconnected the male urine absorption article 1 by the surface perpendicular | vertical to the up-down direction. The male urine absorbent article 1 according to the present invention is a male urine absorbent article having a dimension P in the longitudinal direction larger than a dimension Q in the width direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. In the urine absorbent article 1 for men, the substantially sheet-like laminate 3 and the top sheet 4 are joined to each other at their outer peripheral edges by a hot melt adhesive or the like (the joined part is indicated as a joined part S in the figure). An internal space in the bag body 5 with the penis inserted through the opening formed by tearing the weakening line 7 formed in the insertion portion 6 of the top sheet 4. It is configured to be stored in 5a. In the cross-sectional view of the male urine absorbent article 1 including FIG. 2, for convenience of explanation, the laminated body 3 and the internal space 5 a are shown to be expanded in the vertical direction, but in actuality, they are thin in the vertical direction.

<1. Laminate>
The laminate 3 includes a substantially sheet-like absorber 33 that absorbs and holds urine discharged from the penis, a liquid-permeable top sheet 31 that covers the upper surface of the absorber 33, and a liquid impermeable material that covers the lower surface of the absorber. And a permeable (including poorly permeable) back sheet 32. The top sheet 31 and the back sheet 32 are joined to each other around the absorbent body 33 by a hot melt adhesive. Note that the top sheet 31 and the back sheet 32 may be joined (the joining portion is indicated as the joining portion T in FIG. 2) by a method such as thermal joining or ultrasonic sealing. For hot melt adhesives, select from hot melt adhesives such as rubber, polyolefin, vinyl acetate, etc., direct coater coating, indirect spiral coating, melt blow (curtain spray) coating, bead coating. Apply by the method.

  The top sheet 31 is a sheet that constitutes the upper surface of the laminate 3, and is a liquid-permeable sheet that faces the surface sheet 4 described later and a gap that forms the internal space 5a. The space 5a is a space that forms the inside of the bag body 5 of the male urine absorbent article 1, and is a space that can store the inserted penis.

  As the top sheet 31, in order to directly touch the skin of the wearer (penis), a sanitary material suitable for this is selected in consideration of a good touch without damaging the skin more than necessary. A liquid-permeable sheet suitable for quickly capturing the urine and allowing the urine to quickly permeate the absorber 33 is used. For example, a nonwoven fabric using hydrophilic fibers such as cellulose, rayon and cotton is preferable. In addition, as the top sheet, it is also possible to use a non-woven fabric which is made liquid-permeable by treating the surface of hydrophobic fibers such as polypropylene, polyethylene, polyester, polyamide, nylon and the like with a surfactant.

  The back sheet 32 is a sheet constituting the lower surface of the laminated body 3, and prevents urine that has passed through the top sheet 31 and urine that has been absorbed by the absorber 33 from exuding from the inside of the absorber 33 to the outside. It is a liquid-impermeable sheet. From the viewpoint of wearability, the surface area of the back sheet 32 is desirably the same as that of the top sheet 31.

  As the back sheet 32, a liquid-impermeable sheet made of a sanitary material is generally used. For example, a water-repellent nonwoven fabric using hydrophobic fibers such as polypropylene, polyethylene, polyester, polyamide, and nylon is used. A water-repellent or liquid-impervious plastic film, a composite material of the nonwoven fabric and the plastic film, or the like may be used as the back sheet 32. In this case, from the viewpoint of the wearer's comfort, it is preferable to use a plastic film that has moisture permeability (that is, breathability), can permeate water vapor to prevent stuffiness, and has some flexibility. .

  The absorber 33 plays a role of absorbing and holding urine that has passed through the top sheet 31. Therefore, any material having excellent liquid absorbability can be used. As such an absorbent 33, a granular water-absorbing property is formed on an aggregate of hydrophilic fibers (for example, pulverized pulp fibers and cellulose fibers). It is formed by wrapping a mixture of polymers with a covering sheet such as tissue paper or a liquid-permeable nonwoven fabric, and absorbs urine that has passed through the top sheet 31 to quickly hold and fix it. The cover sheet that wraps the hydrophilic fiber is bonded to the hydrophilic fiber and the water-absorbing polymer with a hot-melt adhesive to prevent the hydrophilic fiber from losing its shape and the water-absorbing polymer from falling off (especially after water absorption). To do. Also, it is possible to use a substantially sheet-like absorbent body in which an adhesive or the like is applied to the opposing surfaces of two liquid-permeable sheets facing each other substantially in parallel, and a layered absorbent polymer (polymer layer) is sandwiched and fixed. it can. In this case, the polymer layer is a substantially rectangular layer extending in the longitudinal direction, and a plurality of polymer layers are arranged at intervals in the width direction. In the non-existing region of the polymer layer, the two liquid-permeable sheets are joined and sealed.

<2. Surface sheet>
The topsheet 4 has an insertion portion 6 that is a region for inserting a penis. When the wearer wears the male urine absorbent article 1, the upper surface of the top sheet 4 comes into contact with the lower abdomen, crotch, and thigh of the wearer, that is, touches the wearer's skin. In consideration of a comfortable wearing feeling, it is desirable to use a flexible and liquid-impermeable sheet made of a sanitary material having a good touch feeling as the top sheet 4. For example, a water-repellent nonwoven fabric using hydrophobic fibers such as polypropylene, polyethylene, polyester, polyamide, and nylon is used. A water-repellent or liquid-impervious plastic film, a composite material of the nonwoven fabric and the plastic film, or the like may be used as the top sheet 4. In this case, from the viewpoint of the wearer's comfort, it is preferable to use a plastic film that has moisture permeability (that is, breathability), can permeate water vapor to prevent stuffiness, and has some flexibility. . It is also possible to use water-repellent nonwoven materials such as spunbond nonwoven fabric, melt blown nonwoven fabric, and SMS nonwoven fabric.

<5. Modification>
Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, the absorber 33 may be provided not only on the laminated body 3 but also on the surface sheet 4 side. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8, a liquid-permeable nonwoven fabric sheet 25 facing the upper surface of the laminate 3 through a gap forming the internal space 5a of the bag body 5, and the liquid-permeable nonwoven fabric A substantially sheet-shaped absorber 33 is interposed between the sheet 25 and the top sheet 4. The liquid-permeable nonwoven fabric sheet 25 and the surface sheet 4 are joined around the absorber 33 by a hot melt adhesive or the like. The liquid permeable nonwoven fabric sheet 25 can be made of the same material as the top sheet 31. By adopting such a configuration, the amount of urine absorbed can be increased, and the absorbent body 33 has a cushioning property. Therefore, when the penis is stored in the internal space 5a of the bag body 5, a better fit is achieved. A feeling is obtained.

  Moreover, the weakening line 7 is not limited to the said embodiment, It can change variously in the range which does not deviate from the meaning of this invention. For example, in the above-described embodiment, the cut portions and the non-cut portions are alternately arranged in the width direction, and the weakened line 7 in which the width direction of the cut portions and the non-cut portions is uniform is formed. The dimensions with the notches may not be uniform or may not be arranged alternately. For example, the weakening line 7 may be formed in a one-dot chain line shape, a two-dot chain line shape, or a slit shape.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the weakening line 7 is formed in a direction parallel to the insertion portion 6 extending in the width direction. For example, the weakening line 7 is slightly inclined with respect to the direction parallel to the insertion portion 6. It may be formed so as to have a curved shape, a sine curve shape, or the like.

  Further, the shape of the weakening line 7 may be any shape that can be easily cleaved. For example, a plurality of straight lines, such as a figure formed such that the center portions of the straight lines overlap each other, for example, two lines A cross-shaped weakening line 7 is formed by overlapping a straight line with the central part of the straight line. By making the weakening line 7 into a cross shape, the penis can be pressed against the center where the cross-shaped straight line intersects and can be split as it is.

  Although not shown, a mark may be attached to the weakening line 7 or the vicinity thereof.

  As an example of the mark, the weakening line 7 is colored with a color different from other portions of the top sheet 4. For example, when the top sheet 4 is made of a white nonwoven fabric sheet, the weakened line 7 is colored light blue.

  As another example of the mark, at least one of a character, a figure, and a symbol can be displayed near the weakening line 7.

  As described above, the mark may be any mark as long as the wearer can easily visually recognize the position of the weakening line 7, and various mark forms can be employed. By attaching the mark in this way, the weakened line 7 can be easily recognized using the mark as a clue, and therefore, the work of tearing the weakened line 7 can be easily performed.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, although the structure which forms the contact bonding layer 20 in the substantially whole area of the width direction of the opposing surface 10a of the overhang | projection sheet 10 was illustrated, A configuration in which the adhesive layer 20 is partially formed may be employed.

  In the above embodiment, the configuration including the overhanging sheet 10 has been described. However, in order to form the opening 8, at least two portions of the surface sheet 4 around the weakening line 7 (longitudinal with the weakening line 7 as a boundary). If the weakening line 7 can be cleaved by applying forces that are separated from each other in the direction one side and the other side), it is possible to adopt a configuration in which the overhanging sheet 10 is not provided. Yes, any other variation is possible.

  Although not shown, a reinforcing sheet may be attached to the weakened wire 7 or the vicinity of the insertion portion 6 in order to easily and stably split the weakened wire 7. As the material of the reinforcing sheet, a plastic film such as polyethylene may be used as long as it has a certain degree of strength and at least flexibility in the width direction.

  In addition, as a sticking position of a reinforcement sheet, the case where the overhang | projection sheet | seat 10 is provided and the case where it does not provide differ.
