 Disclosure of the invention

An object of the present invention is to provide a worn article that can be stably manufactured at a high speed like a pants-type worn article, and that can be easily re-attached like a belt-type wearable article, and a method of manufacturing the same. It is. [0006] A certain wearing article according to the present invention includes a front portion covering the wearer's abdomen, a rear portion covering the wearer's back side, and an absorber straddling between the front portion and the rear portion. A wearable article having a torso opening and two leg openings formed by joining the front part and the rear part to each other, wherein the front part and the rear part each extend in a waist direction. A first edge defining a torso opening, a second edge opposing the first edge, a third edge located at one end in the girth direction, and a second edge in the girth direction. A third edge of the front part and a third edge of the rear part are joined to each other, and a fourth edge of the front part and a fourth edge of the rear part are provided. Are bonded to each other, and two broken portions processed to break after wearing a part of the front part are separated from each other in a waist direction of the front part. And the two breaks are provided so as to substantially cross the front part from a first edge to a second edge of the front part, and the two break parts are provided at the front part. At least a portion of the absorber is fixed in the first region between the two fractured portions, and is secured to the front portion on the skin surface side of the first region in the front portion. A first fastening portion is provided, and a second region surrounded by a first edge, a second edge, a third edge, and one of the break portions of the front portion, and a second region of the front portion. A second fastening portion capable of fastening to the front portion is provided in at least one of the third area surrounded by the first edge, the second edge, the fourth edge, and the other fractured portion. Have been.

 [0007] The wearing article is usually worn as a pants-type wearing article in which the front and rear third edges are joined to each other, and the front and rear fourth edges are joined to each other. Can be

If an emergency occurs or if you want to check for excretion while wearing the worn article, the wearer or caregiver (hereinafter referred to as “user”) must To break the front and divide the front. Thereafter, the user overlaps the second region and the third region to form an overlap portion, connects the second and third regions by the second fastening portion, and connects the overlap portion to the first region. The first region is fixed to the second and Z or third regions via the first fixing portion so that the region is covered, so that the first and second regions can be re-mounted. Therefore, the worn article may be worn as a re-attached worn article until it is replaced with another new worn article. [0008] Further, the present wearing article can also be used as a so-called belt type. In this case, the front part is broken at the two breaks before wearing.

 Hereinafter, a method for manufacturing the present worn article will be described.

As shown in FIG. 6 (a), a first sheet material S1 serving as a front portion 1F and a second sheet material serving as a rear portion 1B are provided. The objects S2 are conveyed in parallel with each other and continuously.

[0048] The first and second fastening members 11, 12 are respectively attached to the continuously flowing first sheet-like material S1.

 After that, the breaking portions 10A and 10B are formed between the first fastening member 11 and the second fastening member 12 in the first sheet-like material S1. The breaks 10A and 10B are formed along a direction substantially perpendicular to the flow direction X. The break portions 10A and 10B are formed, for example, by forming perforations along a direction substantially perpendicular to the flow direction X of the first sheet material S1.

 After forming the fractured portions 10A and 10B, the absorber 2 is arranged so as to straddle between the first sheet-like material S1 and the second sheet-like material S2.

 The order of each of these steps may be changed.

After that, as shown in FIG. 6 (b), the absorber 2 is folded so that the first sheet-like material S1 and the second sheet-like material S2 overlap.

 After the folding, the first sheet-like material S1 and the second sheet-like material S2 are joined and cut between the adjacent absorbers 2. As a result, one pants-type wearing article is generated.

 [0050] The sheet materials SI and S2 can be composed of, for example, a nonwoven fabric, a film, or the like. The first sheet-like material S1 and the second sheet-like material S2 may be formed by slitting one sheet to increase the interval, or may be constituted by separate sheets.

 [0051] Further, the fastening members 11, 12 in Fig. 6 (a) may be arranged along the broken portions 10A, 10B. The fastening members 11, 12 may be arranged on both sides or one side of the first sheet-like material S1 along the flow direction X. However, the positions of the fastening members 11 and 12 are not limited to these, and may be other locations. When the first fastening member 11 and the second fastening member 12 are integrally formed as one member, the first fastening member 11 and the second fastening member 1 are formed in the step of forming the second break portion 10B. At the boundary with 2, for example, a broken portion 10B having a perforated force is machined.

 After the absorber 2 is arranged on the first sheet-like material S1, the first fastening member 11 may be arranged on the absorber 2. In the case where the force is applied, it is preferable that the first fastening member 11 is disposed at a portion where the absorber 2 and the first sheet-like material S1 overlap.

[0053] The leg opening L in the first sheet-like material S1 and Z or the second sheet-like material S2. The method may further include a step of trimming a portion constituting H. The trim is a step of removing a trim portion T indicated by a two-dot chain line in FIG. Eliminating strong trims improves fit. In this step, shearing is likely to occur around the cut portion, and problems are likely to occur when the absorber 2 is arranged. Therefore, this step is preferably performed after the arrangement of the absorber 2.

[0054] A step of arranging the waist elastic member 15 (Fig. 2) on the first sheet-like material S1 may be added. The waist elastic member 15 improves the fit of the front part 1F when the product is worn. Therefore, the function of preventing leakage is improved.

 A step of arranging the waist elastic member 15 (FIG. 2) on the second sheet material S2 may be added. The waist elastic member 15 improves the fit of the rear portion 1B when the product is worn.

[0055] The waist elastic member 15 may be sandwiched between two sheets, or may be sandwiched between one folded sheet.

 When the step of arranging the waist elastic member 15 is added, after the step of arranging the waist elastic member 15, the stress other than the portion corresponding to the width (length in the longitudinal direction X) of the absorber 2 is reduced. A step of reducing the size may be added. As a method of reducing the stress, for example, there is a method in which only the elastic member 15 is cut by embossing or the like so that the elasticity of the elastic member is not expressed. This step is preferably performed before the step of arranging the fastening members 11 and 12.

 Further, a step of arranging the leg elastic member 16 (FIG. 2) on the second sheet-like material S2 and Z or the first sheet-like material S1 may be added. The leg elastic member 16 is preferably sandwiched between two sheets.

 The leg elastic member 16 improves the fit to the lower part of the buttocks when the product is worn. Therefore, the function of preventing leakage is improved.

[0058] The leg elastic members 16 may be linearly arranged as shown in Fig. 7 (a), or may be arranged in a curved line as shown in Fig. 7 (b). When the leg elastic members 16 are arranged in a curved line, it is preferable that the leg elastic members 16 are arranged along a trim portion indicated by a two-dot chain line. When the step of arranging the leg elastic member 16 is added, it is preferable to add a step of reducing the stress of the elastic member 16 in the portion where the absorber 2 is arranged. This is the force at which the absorber 2 is easily arranged.

 [0059] A step of arranging a body-fitting elastic member on the second sheet-like material S2 and Z or the first sheet-like material S1 may be added. The body-fitting elastic member is preferably sandwiched between two sheets. With this elastic member for body fitting, the fit of the rear part when wearing the product is improved. When this step is added, if the step of reducing the stress of the elastic member in the portion where the absorber 2 is arranged is added, the absorber 2 is easily arranged.

 As described above, the absorber 2 is formed by stacking the liquid permeable sheet 24, the absorbent core 25, the liquid impermeable sheet P, the cover sheet 26, and the like. The step of providing the above-described three-dimensional gather 27, the elastic body 28, the cuff elastic member 29, and the like on the absorber 2 may be further added.

 The absorber 2 may be arranged, for example, after being created in a vertical flow state, by being turned upside down by 90 °.

 [0061] Hereinafter, a manufacturing method in which the rear portion 1B, the front portion IF, and the crotch portion are formed from one sheet-like material S will be briefly described.

 As shown in FIG. 8 (a), the first and second fastening members 11, 12 are attached to a portion which becomes the front portion 1F of the continuous wide sheet-like material S.

 Thereafter, the first and second break portions 10A and 10B are formed at positions on both sides of the absorber 2 along a direction substantially orthogonal to the flow direction X. One of the two broken portions 10A and 10B is formed in a portion of the sheet S between the first fastening member 11 and the second fastening member 12. The breaks 10A and 10B are formed so as to essentially cross the front part 1F along a direction substantially perpendicular to the flow direction X so that the front part 1F can be divided in the waist direction. Is done.

 [0062] After the formation of the two breaks 10A and 10B, the absorber 2 is arranged at a position between the two breaks 10A and 10B of the sheet-like material S.

 After the absorbers 2 are arranged, a part of the sheet S is cut out to form the leg openings LH between the adjacent absorbers 2.

The order of each of these steps may be changed. After performing each of the above steps, the sheet-like material S is folded back along the flow direction X around the substantially center of the absorber 2 so that a folded portion is formed in the absorber 2. The part that becomes 1F and the part that becomes rear 1B overlap.

 After the folding step, the portions between the adjacent absorbers 2 are joined and cut. That is, the front part 1F and the rear part 1B of the sheet S are joined between the adjacent absorbers 2 and 2, and the sheet S is cut for each worn article. Thereby, one pants-type wearing article is generated.

 The step of forming the leg opening LH may be performed after the folding step.

 [0065] As described above, the preferred embodiment has been described with reference to the drawings. However, those skilled in the art can easily envisage various changes and modifications within the obvious scope by referring to the present specification. For example, in the above embodiment, the case where two break portions are provided has been described, but three or more break portions may be provided at the front portion.

 Accordingly, such changes and modifications are intended to be within the scope of the present invention. Industrial applicability

[0066] The present invention can be used for wearing articles such as disposable pants and ommut.
