Description

本発明は、着用者からの***物を受ける吸収性物品の形状を維持する保形部材に関する。   The present invention relates to a shape retaining member that maintains the shape of an absorbent article that receives excrement from a wearer.

従来より、シート状の吸収性物品の一部(例えば、股間部に対応する部位)を着用者に向けて凸状とすることにより、吸収性物品を着用者の股間部に密着させて***物を速やかに吸収することが行われており、例えば、特許文献1の生理用ナプキンでは、吸液性コアの中央領域を着用者に向けて凸状に変形させる技術が採用されている。   Conventionally, a part of a sheet-like absorbent article (for example, a part corresponding to the crotch part) is convex toward the wearer, thereby causing the absorbent article to adhere to the wearer's crotch part and excrement. For example, in the sanitary napkin of Patent Document 1, a technique is adopted in which the central region of the liquid-absorbent core is deformed into a convex shape toward the wearer.

特許文献1の生理用ナプキンでは、吸液性コアとバックシートとの間において、吸液性コアの下面(すなわち、着用者とは反対側の面)に疎水性パネル部材がホットメルト接着剤等により接合されており、疎水性パネル部材には、吸液性コアの縦方向中心線に重なる圧搾条溝が形成されている。また、吸液性コアの下面には、縦方向中心線に重なる圧搾条溝が形成されており、吸液性コアの上面には、下面の圧搾条溝の横方向の両側にて縦方向に伸びる2対の圧搾点群(エンボス)が形成されている。当該生理用ナプキンでは、疎水性パネル部材が圧搾条溝に沿って着用者側に凸状に変形されることにより、半剛性を有する吸液性コアが、その下面および上面に形成された圧搾条溝および圧搾点群である変形誘導手段に沿って変形して着用者側に凸状に変形する。   In the sanitary napkin of Patent Document 1, between the liquid absorbent core and the back sheet, a hydrophobic panel member is a hot melt adhesive or the like on the lower surface of the liquid absorbent core (that is, the surface opposite to the wearer). In the hydrophobic panel member, a compressed groove that overlaps the longitudinal center line of the liquid-absorbent core is formed. In addition, the lower surface of the liquid absorbent core is formed with a compressed groove that overlaps the longitudinal center line, and the upper surface of the liquid absorbent core is formed in the vertical direction on both sides of the lower surface of the compressed groove. Two pairs of squeezing points (embossing) are formed. In the sanitary napkin, the hydrophobic core having a semi-rigidity is formed on the lower surface and the upper surface by the hydrophobic panel member being deformed in a convex shape on the wearer side along the compressed groove. It deform | transforms along the deformation | transformation induction | guidance | derivation means which is a groove | channel and a squeeze point group, and deform | transforms into a convex shape at the wearer side.

特開平11−299827号公報Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-299827

ところで、特許文献1の吸収性物品では、吸液性コアの凸状に変形する部位の形状が変形誘導手段により決定されるため、様々な体型の着用者に吸液性コアを適切に密着させることは困難である。また、トップシートとバックシートとの間において吸液性コアに疎水性パネル部材を接合したり、吸液性コアに圧搾条溝や圧搾点群を形成する必要があるため、吸収性物品の製造工程が複雑化するとともに吸収性物品の製造コストも増大してしまう。   By the way, in the absorbent article of patent document 1, since the shape of the site | part which deform | transforms into the convex shape of a liquid absorptive core is determined by a deformation | transformation induction | guidance | derivation means, a liquid absorptive core is made to closely adhere to the wearers of various body types. It is difficult. Moreover, since it is necessary to join a hydrophobic panel member to a liquid absorbing core between a top sheet and a back sheet, or to form a pressing groove and a compression point group in a liquid absorbing core, manufacture of an absorbent article The process becomes complicated and the manufacturing cost of the absorbent article increases.

また、使い捨ておむつや使い捨ておむつの内側に取り付けられる補助吸収具の場合は、着用者からの尿のみならず大便も受けることがあるため、使い捨ておむつ等の股間部に対向する部位は、必ずしも着用者に密着することが好ましいとは限らない。例えば、尿を受ける場合には使い捨ておむつは股間部に密着していることが好ましいが、使い捨ておむつが股間部に密着した状態で排便が行われると、大便の全量を使い捨ておむつの内側に収容することができず、使い捨ておむつと脚の付け根との間から大便が外側に漏出してしまうおそれがある。   In addition, in the case of a disposable diaper or an auxiliary absorbent device attached to the inside of a disposable diaper, not only urine from the wearer but also stool may be received, so the part facing the crotch part of the disposable diaper is not necessarily the wearer It is not always preferable to closely adhere to. For example, when receiving urine, it is preferable that the disposable diaper is in close contact with the crotch part. The stool may leak out from between the disposable diaper and the base of the leg.

本発明は、上記課題に鑑みなされたものであり、吸収性物品の任意の部位を所望の形状に変形した上で変形後の形状を維持することを目的としている。   This invention is made | formed in view of the said subject, and it aims at maintaining the shape after a deformation | transformation, after transforming the arbitrary site | parts of an absorbent article into a desired shape.

The two fastening members 521 of the fastening part 52 are joined on the first main surface 515 of the main body part 51 by a hot melt adhesive or the like.

本体部51は、図4に示すように、長手方向を向く細い帯状の2本の樹脂部材511を備え、図5に示すように、2本の樹脂部材511を図5中の上下方向から挟むことにより覆う2枚のシート部材512,513を備える。2枚のシート部材512,513はそれぞれ柔軟性を有する部材であり、樹脂部材511よりも柔らかい。以下の説明では、図5における上側のシート部材512を「第1シート部材512」と呼び、下側のシート部材513を「第2シート部材513」と呼ぶ。本実施の形態では、樹脂部材511として、三井化学株式会社製のテクノロート(登録商標)が利用され、第1シート部材512および第2シート部材513は不織布により形成される。   The main body 51 includes two thin strip-shaped resin members 511 facing the longitudinal direction as shown in FIG. 4, and sandwiches the two resin members 511 from the vertical direction in FIG. 5 as shown in FIG. Two sheet members 512 and 513 that are covered by this are provided. The two sheet members 512 and 513 are members having flexibility, and are softer than the resin member 511. In the following description, the upper sheet member 512 in FIG. 5 is referred to as a “first sheet member 512”, and the lower sheet member 513 is referred to as a “second sheet member 513”. In the present embodiment, Techno Roto (registered trademark) manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc. is used as the resin member 511, and the first sheet member 512 and the second sheet member 513 are formed of nonwoven fabric.

第1シート部材512と第2シート部材513とはホットメルト接着剤等により全面に亘って接合されており、各樹脂部材511の周囲では、さらに、熱圧着により第1シート部材512および第2シート部材513が他の部位よりも強固に接合されている。図6は、熱圧着が施された部位に平行斜線を付して本体部51を示す平面図である。図6に示すように、本体部51では、各樹脂部材511の周囲の全周に亘って熱圧着が施されている。   The first sheet member 512 and the second sheet member 513 are joined over the entire surface by a hot melt adhesive or the like, and further around each resin member 511, the first sheet member 512 and the second sheet are further bonded by thermocompression bonding. The member 513 is joined more firmly than other parts. FIG. 6 is a plan view showing the main body 51 with a parallel oblique line attached to a portion subjected to thermocompression bonding. As shown in FIG. 6, in the main body 51, thermocompression bonding is performed over the entire circumference around each resin member 511.

保形部材5では、樹脂部材511が塑性変形することにより、本体部51が変形されて変形後の形状が維持される。なお、保形部材5では、1枚のシート部材が、間に2本の樹脂部材511を挟んで2つ折りにされ、シート部材の折り目の両側の部位が互いに接合されることにより本体部51が形成されてもよい。   In the shape retaining member 5, the resin member 511 is plastically deformed, whereby the main body 51 is deformed and the deformed shape is maintained. In the shape retaining member 5, one sheet member is folded in two with two resin members 511 in between, and the portions on both sides of the fold of the sheet member are joined to each other, whereby the main body 51 is It may be formed.

図4および図5に示す止着部52の2つの止着部材521は、図1に示す吸収性物品1の外装シート4の表面(すなわち、吸収性物品1の外面411)の繊維に係合可能な樹脂製の面ファスナであり、止着部52により本体部51が吸収性物品1の外面411に着脱自在に止着される。本体部51の第1主面515では、2つの止着部材521の間において、不織布である第1シート部材512が幅方向の全幅に亘って露出している。換言すれば、本体部51の2つの止着部材521の間に、本体部51を幅方向に横断するとともに吸収性物品1に対して止着されない領域514(以下、「非止着領域514」という。)が設けられる。   The two fastening members 521 of the fastening part 52 shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 engage with the fibers on the surface of the exterior sheet 4 of the absorbent article 1 shown in FIG. 1 (that is, the outer surface 411 of the absorbent article 1). It is a possible plastic surface fastener, and the main body 51 is detachably fixed to the outer surface 411 of the absorbent article 1 by the fixing portion 52. On the first main surface 515 of the main body 51, the first sheet member 512 that is a non-woven fabric is exposed across the entire width in the width direction between the two fastening members 521. In other words, a region 514 that crosses the main body 51 in the width direction and is not fixed to the absorbent article 1 between the two fixing members 521 of the main body 51 (hereinafter referred to as “non-fixed region 514”). Is provided).

また、本体部51の第1主面515では、本体部51の長手方向の両側の端部517(すなわち、本体部51の外縁部の一部であり、具体的には、本体部51の長手方向の端縁と当該端縁に近い方の止着部材521との間の部位)においても第1シート部材512が露出しており、2つの端部517も非止着領域514と同様に、吸収性物品1に対して止着されない領域となる。吸収性物品1から保形部材5が取り外される際には、本体部51の端部517が使用者により把持され、本体部51が吸収性物品1から離れる方向に引っ張られる。換言すれば、保形部材5では、本体部51の端部517は、吸収性物品1からの止着部52の剥離時に把持される把持部となっている。本実施の形態では、本体部51の各端部517において、幅方向の両側の部位が角部が除去された形状とされ、その輪郭は外側に凸となる曲線となっている。   Further, in the first main surface 515 of the main body 51, end portions 517 on both sides in the longitudinal direction of the main body 51 (that is, a part of the outer edge of the main body 51, specifically, the length of the main body 51 The first sheet member 512 is also exposed at a portion between the edge in the direction and the fastening member 521 closer to the edge, and the two end portions 517 are also in the same manner as the non-fastening region 514. This is a region that is not fixed to the absorbent article 1. When the shape-retaining member 5 is removed from the absorbent article 1, the end 517 of the main body 51 is gripped by the user, and the main body 51 is pulled away from the absorbent article 1. In other words, in the shape retaining member 5, the end portion 517 of the main body portion 51 is a grip portion that is gripped when the fastening portion 52 is peeled from the absorbent article 1. In the present embodiment, at each end 517 of the main body 51, the portions on both sides in the width direction have a shape with corners removed, and the contour is a curve that protrudes outward.

保形部材5では、本体部51の第1シート部材512の色が、止着部52の2つの止着部材521の色と異なる。このため、保形部材5を第1主面515側から見た場合に、止着部材521の存在を容易に視認することができ、止着部52が設けられた第1主面515と止着部52が設けられていない主面516(すなわち、図5中の下側の主面であり、以下、「第2主面516」という。)とを容易に区別することができる。換言すれば、保形部材5の本体部51は、止着部材521とは色が異なる第1シート部材512(の第1主面515)を、第1主面515と第2主面516とを区別する目印として有している。その結果、保形部材5を吸収性物品1に速やかに止着することができる。   In the shape retaining member 5, the color of the first sheet member 512 of the main body 51 is different from the color of the two fastening members 521 of the fastening part 52. For this reason, when the shape-retaining member 5 is viewed from the first main surface 515 side, the presence of the fixing member 521 can be easily recognized, and the first main surface 515 provided with the fixing portion 52 and the fixing member 52 can be visually confirmed. It is possible to easily distinguish the main surface 516 (that is, the lower main surface in FIG. 5 and hereinafter referred to as “second main surface 516”) in which the wearing portion 52 is not provided. In other words, the main body 51 of the shape-retaining member 5 has a first sheet member 512 (a first main surface 515) having a color different from that of the fastening member 521, and a first main surface 515 and a second main surface 516. As a mark for distinguishing. As a result, the shape retaining member 5 can be quickly fixed to the absorbent article 1.

次に、保形部材5の使用態様について説明する。図1に示すように、保形部材5は、吸収性物品1の中間部402において、吸収コア22と重なる位置に止着される。保形部材5は、少なくともその一部が吸収コア22と重なるように止着されていればよいが、吸収性物品1の吸収コア22を容易に変形するという観点からは、保形部材5の全体が吸収コア22と重なることが好ましい。図7は、保形部材5が止着された吸収性物品1の中間部402の断面図であり、保形部材5の第1の使用態様を示す。図7では、図示の都合上、吸収性物品1を1本の太実線により示しており、保形部材5の本体部51を1本の実線により示しており、保形部材5の各構成および吸収性物品1を離間させて描いている(図8、図10、図12、図13、図15、図16、図18、図19、図21、図22および図24においても同様)。また、図7では、着用者の股間部91も併せて描いている(図8においても同様)。   Next, how the shape retaining member 5 is used will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, the shape retaining member 5 is fastened to a position overlapping the absorbent core 22 in the intermediate portion 402 of the absorbent article 1. The shape-retaining member 5 only needs to be fastened so that at least a part of the shape-retaining member 5 overlaps the absorbent core 22. From the viewpoint of easily deforming the absorbent core 22 of the absorbent article 1, It is preferable that the entirety overlaps with the absorbent core 22. FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view of the intermediate portion 402 of the absorbent article 1 to which the shape retaining member 5 is fixed, and shows a first usage mode of the shape retaining member 5. In FIG. 7, for the convenience of illustration, the absorbent article 1 is shown by one thick solid line, and the main body 51 of the shape retaining member 5 is shown by one solid line. The absorbent article 1 is drawn apart (the same applies to FIGS. 8, 10, 12, 13, 15, 16, 18, 18, 19, 22, 22 and 24). Moreover, in FIG. 7, the wearer's crotch part 91 is also drawn together (the same applies to FIG. 8).

図7に示すように、保形部材5の本体部51は、止着部52の2つの止着部材521により吸収性物品1の中間部402の外面411に止着される。そして、本体部51の樹脂部材511(図4および図5参照)を塑性変形させることにより、吸収性物品1の被取付部13(すなわち、保形部材5の本体部51が止着された部位)が、着用者の股間部91(特に、臀部)から離間するように図7における下方に向かって凸状に変形されるとともに変形後の被取付部13の形状が維持される。図7では、保形部材5による変形前の吸収性物品1の被取付部13の形状を二点鎖線にて示す(図8においても同様)。   As shown in FIG. 7, the main body 51 of the shape retaining member 5 is fixed to the outer surface 411 of the intermediate portion 402 of the absorbent article 1 by the two fixing members 521 of the fixing portion 52. And the part to which the to-be-attached part 13 of the absorbent article 1 (namely, the main-body part 51 of the shape-retaining member 5 was fixed) by plastically deforming the resin member 511 (refer FIG. 4 and FIG. 5) of the main-body part 51 was fixed. ) Is deformed in a convex shape downward in FIG. 7 so as to be separated from the wearer's crotch portion 91 (particularly the heel portion), and the shape of the mounted portion 13 after deformation is maintained. In FIG. 7, the shape of the attached portion 13 of the absorbent article 1 before being deformed by the shape retaining member 5 is indicated by a two-dot chain line (the same applies to FIG. 8).

例えば、高齢者等の介護においては、排便のタイミングが食事後の経過時間に基づいてある程度予測できる。したがって、吸収性物品1により排便を受けることが予想される場合には、図7に示すように、保形部材5により、吸収性物品1の中間部402を着用者の股間部91から離間させて股間部91と吸収性物品1の内面との間に比較的大きい空間101を形成しておく。これにより、着用者から排出された大便を空間101に収容することができるため、大便が吸収性物品1の脚部開口12(図1参照)と着用者の脚部との隙間等から吸収性物品1の外部へと漏出してしまうことが防止される。   For example, in the care of elderly people and the like, the timing of defecation can be predicted to some extent based on the elapsed time after meal. Therefore, when it is anticipated that defecation will be received by the absorbent article 1, the intermediate portion 402 of the absorbent article 1 is separated from the crotch portion 91 of the wearer by the shape retaining member 5, as shown in FIG. A relatively large space 101 is formed between the crotch portion 91 and the inner surface of the absorbent article 1. Thereby, since the stool discharged | emitted from the wearer can be accommodated in the space 101, the stool absorbs from the clearance etc. of the leg part opening 12 (refer FIG. 1) of the absorbent article 1, and a wearer's leg part. Leakage to the outside of the article 1 is prevented.

また、吸収性物品1により比較的大量の尿を受けることが予想される場合も同様に、保形部材5により吸収性物品1が図7に示すように変形されて空間101が形成される。これにより、着用者から排出された尿が吸収性物品1の吸収コア22(図3参照)により吸収されるまで、空間101にて尿を一時的に保持することができるため、尿が吸収性物品1の脚部開口12と着用者の脚部との隙間等から吸収性物品1の外部へと漏出してしまうことが防止される。   Similarly, when the absorbent article 1 is expected to receive a relatively large amount of urine, the absorbent article 1 is deformed as shown in FIG. Thereby, since urine discharged | emitted from the wearer can be temporarily hold | maintained in the space 101 until the urine discharged | emitted by the absorption core 22 (refer FIG. 3) of the absorbent article 1 is absorbed, urine is absorptive. Leakage to the outside of the absorbent article 1 from the gap between the leg opening 12 of the article 1 and the leg of the wearer is prevented.

図8は、保形部材5の第2の使用態様を示す断面図である。図8に示す使用態様では、吸収性物品1の中間部402の外面411に止着された保形部材5において本体部51の樹脂部材511(図4および図5参照)を塑性変形させることにより、吸収性物品1の被取付部13が、着用者の股間部91の凹凸に沿うように図8中の上向きに凸状に変形されるとともに変形後の被取付部13の形状が維持される。これにより、吸収性物品1の被取付部13近傍の部位が着用者の股間部91に密着するため、着用者から排出された尿等の水分が、排出された位置から大きく移動することなく吸収コア22(図3参照)へと速やかに導かれて吸収される。その結果、尿等の水分が着用者の肌を伝って広がって排尿口から離れた部位の肌が濡れてしまうことが防止されるため、排尿後における吸収性物品1の着用感の低下を抑制することができる。   FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view showing a second usage mode of the shape retaining member 5. In the usage mode shown in FIG. 8, by plastically deforming the resin member 511 (see FIGS. 4 and 5) of the main body 51 in the shape retaining member 5 fixed to the outer surface 411 of the intermediate portion 402 of the absorbent article 1. The attached portion 13 of the absorbent article 1 is deformed upward in FIG. 8 so as to follow the unevenness of the crotch portion 91 of the wearer, and the shape of the attached portion 13 after the deformation is maintained. . Thereby, since the site | part near the to-be-attached part 13 of the absorbent article 1 closely_contact | adheres to a wearer's crotch part 91, water | moisture content, such as urine discharged | emitted from the wearer, absorbs without moving largely from the discharged | emitted position. Immediately guided to the core 22 (see FIG. 3) and absorbed. As a result, it is prevented that moisture such as urine spreads along the wearer's skin and the skin away from the urination opening is wetted, so that a decrease in wearing feeling of the absorbent article 1 after urination is suppressed. can do.

図9は、保形部材5の第3の使用態様を示す正面図であり、図10は、保形部材5および吸収性物品1を図9中のC−Cの位置にて切断した断面図である。図9および図10では、着用者の男性器92を併せて描いている(図11ないし図19においても同様)。また、図9では、図示の都合上、保形部材5の樹脂部材511を細実線にて描いている(図11、図14、図17、図20および図23においても同様)。図9に示す使用態様では、保形部材5は、吸収性物品1の外装シート4の前方部401において、本体部51の長手方向が吸収性物品1の左右方向(幅方向)に平行となるように配置され、先端が図9中の上側(すなわち、着用者の頭部側)を向くように腹側に配置された男性器92上を横断しつつ、男性器92の左右両側にて吸収性物品1の外面411に止着される。   FIG. 9 is a front view showing a third usage mode of the shape-retaining member 5, and FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view of the shape-retaining member 5 and the absorbent article 1 cut at the position CC in FIG. It is. In FIGS. 9 and 10, the male genitalia 92 of the wearer is drawn together (the same applies to FIGS. 11 to 19). Moreover, in FIG. 9, the resin member 511 of the shape-retaining member 5 is drawn with a thin solid line for convenience of illustration (the same applies to FIGS. 11, 14, 17, 20 and 23). In the usage mode illustrated in FIG. 9, in the shape retaining member 5, the longitudinal direction of the main body 51 is parallel to the left-right direction (width direction) of the absorbent article 1 in the front portion 401 of the exterior sheet 4 of the absorbent article 1. 9 and is absorbed on both the left and right sides of the male genital 92 while traversing the male genital 92 disposed on the abdominal side so that the tip faces the upper side in FIG. 9 (that is, the head side of the wearer). It is fixed to the outer surface 411 of the property article 1.

そして、保形部材5の本体部51において樹脂部材511(図9参照)を塑性変形させることにより、図10に示すように、吸収性物品1の被取付部13aが、男性器92に沿うように図10中の上向きに(すなわち、着用者から離れる方向に)凸状に変形されるとともに被取付部13aの形状が維持される。これにより、男性器92の位置の吸収性物品1の内側における変化(すなわち、腹部93上における男性器92の位置の変化)が被取付部13aにより制限されるため、吸収性物品1の尿を受ける位置が吸収性物品1の左右方向のほぼ中央に固定される。その結果、排尿口が図9に示す脚部開口12近傍に位置した状態で排尿が行われることが防止され、尿が吸収性物品1の脚部開口12と着用者の脚部との隙間等から吸収性物品1の外部へと漏出してしまうことが防止される。このように、保形部材5により吸収性物品1の尿を受ける位置を固定することができるため、保形部材5は、腹側の左右方向の中央近傍における吸収力を周囲の部位よりも大きくしたタイプの男性用使い捨ておむつへの使用にも適している。   Then, by plastically deforming the resin member 511 (see FIG. 9) in the main body 51 of the shape retaining member 5, the attached portion 13a of the absorbent article 1 extends along the male genital 92 as shown in FIG. 10 is upwardly deformed in FIG. 10 (that is, in a direction away from the wearer), and the shape of the attached portion 13a is maintained. Thereby, since the change in the inside of the absorbent article 1 of the position of the male instrument 92 (that is, the change of the position of the male instrument 92 on the abdomen 93) is restricted by the attached portion 13a, the urine of the absorbent article 1 is reduced. The receiving position is fixed substantially at the center in the left-right direction of the absorbent article 1. As a result, it is prevented that urination is performed in a state where the urination port is located in the vicinity of the leg opening 12 shown in FIG. 9, and the urine is a gap between the leg opening 12 of the absorbent article 1 and the leg of the wearer. Is prevented from leaking out of the absorbent article 1. Thus, since the position which receives the urine of the absorbent article 1 can be fixed by the shape-retaining member 5, the shape-retaining member 5 has a larger absorption force in the vicinity of the center in the left-right direction on the ventral side than the surrounding portion. It is also suitable for use in disposable diapers for men of the type specified.

以上に説明したように、保形部材5では、止着部52により本体部51を吸収性物品1の任意の部位に止着し、本体部51の樹脂部材511を塑性変形させることにより、吸収性物品1の当該部位を所望の形状に変形した上で変形後の形状を維持することができる。また、吸収性物品1の被取付部13,13aの変形後の形状を目的に合わせて様々に決定することができるため、吸収性物品1の様々な使用状況に容易に適用することができる。さらには、吸収性物品1の変形を補助するための特別な構造を吸収性物品1上に設ける必要がないため、様々な種類の吸収性物品に対して保形部材5を使用することができる。   As described above, in the shape retaining member 5, the main body 51 is fixed to an arbitrary part of the absorbent article 1 by the fixing portion 52, and the resin member 511 of the main body 51 is plastically deformed to absorb. It is possible to maintain the deformed shape after the portion of the property article 1 is deformed into a desired shape. Moreover, since the shape after the deformation | transformation of the to-be-attached parts 13 and 13a of the absorbent article 1 can be variously determined according to the objective, it can be easily applied to the various use situations of the absorbent article 1. Furthermore, since it is not necessary to provide a special structure on the absorbent article 1 to assist the deformation of the absorbent article 1, the shape retaining member 5 can be used for various types of absorbent articles. .

保形部材5の本体部51は、上述のように、止着部52により吸収性物品1の表面に着脱自在に止着される。このため、使用済みの吸収性物品1から取り外された保形部材5を、未使用の吸収性物品1に取り付けて繰り返し使用することができる。また、止着部52が、吸収性物品1の表面の繊維に係合可能な面ファスナとされることにより、保形部材5を吸収性物品1に対して容易に着脱(すなわち、止着および剥離)することができる。さらに、保形部材5の吸収性物品1に対する着脱を繰り返した場合であっても、保形部材5の吸収性物品1に対する止着力の低下を抑制することができる。   As described above, the main body 51 of the shape retaining member 5 is detachably fixed to the surface of the absorbent article 1 by the fixing portion 52. For this reason, the shape-retaining member 5 removed from the used absorbent article 1 can be used repeatedly by being attached to the unused absorbent article 1. Further, since the fastening portion 52 is a surface fastener that can be engaged with the fiber on the surface of the absorbent article 1, the shape retaining member 5 can be easily attached to and detached from the absorbent article 1 (that is, fastening and fastening). Peeling). Furthermore, even if it is a case where attachment / detachment with respect to the absorbent article 1 of the shape-retaining member 5 is repeated, the fall of the fastening force with respect to the absorbent article 1 of the shape-retaining member 5 can be suppressed.

保形部材5では、本体部51を変形させて変形後の形状を維持させる部材として比較的柔軟な部材である樹脂部材511が利用されることにより、当該部材として塑性変形する硬い部材を利用する場合に比べて、保形部材5により着用者の肌が吸収性物品1を介して強く圧迫されることを抑制し、保形部材5が止着された吸収性物品1の着用感の低下を抑制することができる。また、保形部材5の安全性を向上することもできる。さらに、本体部51が、樹脂部材511を覆う柔軟性を有する第1シート部材512および第2シート部材513を備えることにより、保形部材5により着用者の肌が強く圧迫されることをより一層抑制し、保形部材5が止着された吸収性物品1の着用感の低下をさらに抑制することができる。保形部材5による着用者の肌の圧迫を抑制するという観点からは、保形部材5は、上述のように、吸収性物品1の外面411に止着されることが好ましい。   In the shape-retaining member 5, the resin member 511, which is a relatively flexible member, is used as a member that deforms the main body 51 and maintains the deformed shape, thereby using a hard member that is plastically deformed as the member. Compared with the case, it is suppressed that a wearer's skin is strongly pressed via the absorbent article 1 by the shape-retaining member 5, and the wear feeling of the absorbent article 1 to which the shape-retaining member 5 is fixed is reduced. Can be suppressed. In addition, the safety of the shape retaining member 5 can be improved. Furthermore, since the main body 51 includes the first sheet member 512 and the second sheet member 513 having flexibility to cover the resin member 511, the shape retaining member 5 further strongly presses the wearer's skin. It can suppress and can further suppress the fall of the wearing feeling of the absorbent article 1 to which the shape-retaining member 5 was fixed. From the viewpoint of suppressing the pressure on the wearer's skin by the shape-retaining member 5, the shape-retaining member 5 is preferably fixed to the outer surface 411 of the absorbent article 1 as described above.

保形部材5では、本体部51が、不織布により形成された第1シート部材512および第2シート部材513により樹脂部材511が覆われる構造とされることにより、樹脂部材511と第1シート部材512および第2シート部材513とを分別して廃棄する必要がない。このため、保形部材5の廃棄時における労力を低減することができる。さらに、本体部51に接合された止着部52の止着部材521が樹脂により形成されることにより、本体部51と止着部52とを分別して廃棄する必要がないため、保形部材5の廃棄時における労力をより低減することができる。   In the shape retaining member 5, the main body 51 has a structure in which the resin member 511 is covered with the first sheet member 512 and the second sheet member 513 formed of a nonwoven fabric, so that the resin member 511 and the first sheet member 512 are covered. And it is not necessary to separate and discard the second sheet member 513. For this reason, the labor at the time of disposal of the shape-retaining member 5 can be reduced. Furthermore, since the fastening member 521 of the fastening part 52 joined to the main body part 51 is formed of resin, there is no need to separate the main body part 51 and the fastening part 52 and discard them. The labor at the time of disposal can be further reduced.

上述のように、保形部材5の本体部51が帯状とされることにより、本体部51の形状が複雑なものとされる場合に比べて、保形部材5の製造が簡素化され、保形部材5の製造コストが低減される。また、本体部51に比べて幅が細い帯状の複数の樹脂部材511が、本体部51の幅方向に配列されることにより、本体部51のおよそ全幅に亘る樹脂部材が設けられる場合に比べ、樹脂部材511の使用量を低減することができ、保形部材5の製造コストをより低減することができる。   As described above, the main body 51 of the shape-retaining member 5 is formed in a band shape, which simplifies the manufacture of the shape-retaining member 5 compared to the case where the shape of the main body 51 is complicated. The manufacturing cost of the shape member 5 is reduced. In addition, a plurality of strip-shaped resin members 511 having a narrow width compared to the main body portion 51 are arranged in the width direction of the main body portion 51, thereby providing a resin member that covers the entire width of the main body portion 51. The usage-amount of the resin member 511 can be reduced and the manufacturing cost of the shape-retaining member 5 can be further reduced.

A pair of side wall portions 3a provided over substantially the entire length of the three-dimensional gathers is formed, and the elastic yarn 31 joined to the side wall portions 3a contracts to form a three-dimensional gather.

吸収性物品1bでは、吸収体2aの図20中の下側の部位が着用者の腹側の肌に接する前方部201となり、上側の部位が着用者の背側に接する後方部203となり、前方部201と後方部203との間の部位が着用者の股間部に対向する中間部202となる。吸収体2aの内面211および外面231は不織布により形成されている。吸収体2aの中間部202の内面211には、第1の実施の形態に係る保形部材5が、吸収体2aの幅方向に沿って(すなわち、保形部材5の長手方向が吸収体2aの幅方向におよそ平行となるように)止着される。また、中間部202の外面231には、2本の保形部材5が、内面211に止着された上記保形部材5の左右両側において吸収体2aの長手方向に沿って止着される。   In the absorbent article 1b, the lower part in FIG. 20 of the absorbent body 2a is the front part 201 in contact with the wearer's stomach side, and the upper part is the rear part 203 in contact with the wearer's back side. A portion between the portion 201 and the rear portion 203 serves as an intermediate portion 202 that faces the wearer's crotch portion. The inner surface 211 and the outer surface 231 of the absorber 2a are formed of a nonwoven fabric. On the inner surface 211 of the intermediate portion 202 of the absorbent body 2a, the shape retaining member 5 according to the first embodiment is arranged along the width direction of the absorbent body 2a (that is, the longitudinal direction of the shape retaining member 5 is the absorbent body 2a. It is fastened so that it is approximately parallel to the width direction. In addition, two shape-retaining members 5 are fixed to the outer surface 231 of the intermediate portion 202 along the longitudinal direction of the absorbent body 2a on both the left and right sides of the shape-retaining member 5 fixed to the inner surface 211.

図21および図22はそれぞれ、吸収性物品1bおよび吸収性物品1bに取り付けられた保形部材5を図20中のJ−Jの位置およびK−Kの位置にて切断した断面図である。図21に示すように、吸収性物品1bの吸収体2aの内面211に、吸収性物品1bの幅方向に沿って止着された保形部材5が、図21において下方に向かって凸状となるように塑性変形されることにより、吸収性物品1bの中間部202が着用者から離れる方向に凸状となるように変形され、着用者と吸収体2aの内面211との間に空間102を形成される。また、吸収体2aの外面231に吸収性物品1bの長手方向に沿って止着された2本の保形部材5が塑性変形されることなく、ある程度まっすぐな形状を維持することにより、図22に示すように、側壁部3aの弾性糸31(図20参照)の収縮力に抗して空間102の長手方向(すなわち、図22中の左右方向)の長さが確保される。これにより、着用者から排出された大便を空間102に収容することができるため、大便が吸収性物品1bから漏出してしまうことが防止される。   FIGS. 21 and 22 are cross-sectional views of the absorbent article 1b and the shape-retaining member 5 attached to the absorbent article 1b, respectively, cut at positions JJ and KK in FIG. As shown in FIG. 21, the shape-retaining member 5 fixed to the inner surface 211 of the absorbent body 2a of the absorbent article 1b along the width direction of the absorbent article 1b is convex downward in FIG. By being plastically deformed, the intermediate portion 202 of the absorbent article 1b is deformed so as to be convex in a direction away from the wearer, and the space 102 is formed between the wearer and the inner surface 211 of the absorbent body 2a. It is formed. Further, the two shape-retaining members 5 fastened to the outer surface 231 of the absorbent body 2a along the longitudinal direction of the absorbent article 1b are maintained in a straight shape to some extent without being plastically deformed. As shown, the length of the space 102 in the longitudinal direction (that is, the left-right direction in FIG. 22) is secured against the contraction force of the elastic yarn 31 (see FIG. 20) of the side wall 3a. Thereby, since the stool discharged | emitted from the wearer can be accommodated in the space 102, it is prevented that a stool leaks from the absorbent article 1b.

図23は、第1の実施の形態に係る保形部材5のさらに他の使用態様を示す平面図である。図23に示す使用態様では、吸収性物品1bの吸収体2aの内面211に、2本の保形部材5が吸収体2aの幅方向に沿って互いに離間しつつ中間部202に止着される。これにより、吸収性物品1bを図23中のL−Lの位置にて切断した断面図である図24に示すように、空間102の長手方向(すなわち、図24中の左右方向)の長さを大きくすることができ、大便が吸収性物品1bから漏出してしまうことをより確実に防止することができる。   FIG. 23 is a plan view showing still another usage mode of the shape retaining member 5 according to the first embodiment. In the usage mode shown in FIG. 23, two shape-retaining members 5 are fixed to the intermediate portion 202 while being separated from each other along the width direction of the absorbent body 2a on the inner surface 211 of the absorbent body 2a of the absorbent article 1b. . Thereby, as shown in FIG. 24 which is sectional drawing which cut | disconnected the absorbent article 1b in the position of LL in FIG. 23, the length of the longitudinal direction (namely, left-right direction in FIG. 24) of the space 102 is shown. The stool can be more reliably prevented from leaking from the absorbent article 1b.

以上、本発明の実施の形態について説明してきたが、本発明は上記実施の形態に限定されるものではなく、様々な変更が可能である。   As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention has been described, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment, A various change is possible.

上述の保形部材5,5a,5bの止着部52では、止着部材521の個数や形状が適宜変更されてよい。止着部52は必ずしも面ファスナには限定されず、例えば、吸収性物品の外面がプラスチックフィルムにより形成されている場合は、粘着テープ等のように、プラスチックフィルムに対して着脱自在に止着可能な止着部が設けられる。なお、保形部材は、必ずしも吸収性物品の表面に着脱自在に止着される必要はなく、保形部材の吸収性物品からの意図しない剥離が問題になる場合等には、保形部材は容易に剥離しない態様にて(例えば、接着剤による接着により)吸収性物品の表面に止着されてもよい。   In the fastening portions 52 of the shape retaining members 5, 5a, 5b described above, the number and shape of the fastening members 521 may be changed as appropriate. The fastening portion 52 is not necessarily limited to a hook-and-loop fastener. For example, when the outer surface of the absorbent article is formed of a plastic film, it can be detachably fastened to the plastic film, such as an adhesive tape. Fastenings are provided. In addition, the shape retaining member does not necessarily need to be detachably attached to the surface of the absorbent article, and when the unintentional peeling of the shape retaining member from the absorbent article becomes a problem, the shape retaining member is It may be fixed to the surface of the absorbent article in a manner that does not easily peel (for example, by adhesion with an adhesive).

保形部材の本体部の形状は上述のものには限定されず、保形部材の使用目的に合わせて様々な形状(例えば、矩形や円形)とされてよい。また、保形部材では、本体部51の外縁部の少なくとも一部が、吸収性物品からの止着部52の剥離時に把持される把持部とされていればよく、これにより、保形部材の剥離が容易に行われる。なお、保形部材の吸収性物品からの剥離がある程度容易に行うことができるのであれば、把持部を設けることなく、本体部の第1主面515のおよそ全面に亘って止着部材が設けられてもよい。この場合、不織布上に面ファスナを接合したシートから保形部材に対応する形状を打ち抜くことにより、止着部52が接合された第1シート部材512を容易に形成することができるため、保形部材の製造を簡素化することができる。   The shape of the main body portion of the shape retaining member is not limited to the above-described one, and may be various shapes (for example, a rectangle or a circle) according to the purpose of use of the shape retaining member. Further, in the shape retaining member, at least a part of the outer edge portion of the main body 51 only needs to be a gripping portion that is gripped when the fastening portion 52 is peeled from the absorbent article. Peeling is easily performed. If the shape-retaining member can be peeled off from the absorbent article to some extent, a fastening member is provided over almost the entire first main surface 515 of the main body without providing a gripping portion. May be. In this case, the first sheet member 512 to which the fastening portion 52 is bonded can be easily formed by punching out the shape corresponding to the shape-retaining member from the sheet having the surface fastener bonded to the nonwoven fabric. The manufacture of the member can be simplified.

本体部では、樹脂部材511の個数や形状も適宜変更されてよい。例えば、図25に示す保形部材5cのように、帯状の本体部51の長手方向を向く細い帯状の3本の樹脂部材511が本体部51に設けられてもよい。また、1本あるいは4本以上の樹脂部材511が本体部51に設けられてもよい。本体部51に1本の樹脂部材のみが設けられる場合には、図26に示すように、保形部材5dの本体部51の幅よりも僅かに幅が小さい帯状の樹脂部材511aが設けられてもよい。   In the main body, the number and shape of the resin members 511 may be changed as appropriate. For example, three thin strip-shaped resin members 511 facing the longitudinal direction of the strip-shaped main body 51 may be provided on the main body 51 as in the shape retaining member 5c shown in FIG. One or four or more resin members 511 may be provided in the main body 51. When only one resin member is provided in the main body 51, as shown in FIG. 26, a belt-like resin member 511a having a slightly smaller width than the width of the main body 51 of the shape retaining member 5d is provided. Also good.

本体部に設けられる樹脂部材の形状は、帯状のものには限定されず、例えば、糸状とされてもよい。いずれの場合であっても、本体部を変形させて変形後の形状を維持させる部材として、比較的柔軟な樹脂部材が利用されることにより、保形部材により着用者の肌が強く圧迫されることを抑制することができる。なお、保形部材による着用者の肌の圧迫が許容範囲内である場合には、本体部を変形させて変形後の形状を維持させる部材として、樹脂部材よりも硬く、かつ、塑性変形する部材(例えば、金属の薄板)が利用されてもよい。   The shape of the resin member provided in the main body is not limited to a band shape, and may be, for example, a thread shape. In any case, the skin of the wearer is strongly pressed by the shape-retaining member by using a relatively flexible resin member as a member that deforms the main body portion and maintains the deformed shape. This can be suppressed. In addition, when compression of the wearer's skin by the shape-retaining member is within an allowable range, the member that deforms the main body and maintains the deformed shape is harder than the resin member and plastically deformed (For example, a thin metal plate) may be used.

本体部に設けられる第1シート部材512および第2シート部材513は、必ずしも不織布により形成される必要はなく、プラスチックフィルム等、様々な材料により形成されてよい。なお、保形部材による着用者の肌の圧迫が許容範囲内である場合には、例えば、図26に示す樹脂部材511aのみが本体部とされ、樹脂部材511a上に止着部52が直接接合されてもよい。   The 1st sheet member 512 and the 2nd sheet member 513 provided in a main part need not necessarily be formed with a nonwoven fabric, and may be formed with various materials, such as a plastic film. In addition, when the compression of the wearer's skin by the shape retaining member is within an allowable range, for example, only the resin member 511a shown in FIG. 26 is used as the main body, and the fastening portion 52 is directly bonded onto the resin member 511a. May be.

上述のように、第1の実施の形態に係る保形部材5では、止着部材521と本体部51の第1シート部材512との色の差により、本体部51の第1主面515と第2主面516とが区別されるが、保形部材5は、第1主面515と第2主面516とを区別する他の態様の目印を有していてもよい。例えば、本体部51の第1主面515または第2主面516のみに、目印となる文字や図形等が印刷またはエンボス加工等により形成されてもよく、無地の第1主面515上に設けられる止着部材521に目印となる文字や図形等が印刷または形成されてもよい。止着部材として粘着テープが利用される場合には、保形部材の使用前の状態において粘着テープの表面を覆う被覆フィルムの色が、本体部51の第1主面515とは異なる色とされたり、被覆フィルムに目印となる文字や図形等が印刷または形成されてもよい。   As described above, in the shape retaining member 5 according to the first embodiment, the first main surface 515 of the main body 51 and the first main surface 515 of the main body 51 due to the color difference between the fastening member 521 and the first sheet member 512 of the main body 51. Although the second main surface 516 is distinguished, the shape-retaining member 5 may have another form of mark that distinguishes the first main surface 515 and the second main surface 516. For example, only the first main surface 515 or the second main surface 516 of the main body 51 may be formed with marks, figures, or the like serving as marks by printing or embossing or the like, and provided on the plain first main surface 515. The fixing member 521 may be printed or formed with characters, figures, or the like serving as marks. When an adhesive tape is used as the fastening member, the color of the covering film that covers the surface of the adhesive tape in a state before the shape retaining member is used is different from that of the first main surface 515 of the main body 51. Or characters, figures, or the like serving as marks may be printed or formed on the covering film.

上記実施の形態に係る保形部材は、上述のように、様々な種類の吸収性物品に対して利用されてよく、例えば、着用者の腹側の肌に接する部位と背側の肌に接する部位とを腰回りで止着して装着するオープンタイプの使い捨ておむつに止着されて使用されてもよい。また、上記保形部材は、男性器に巻き付けるように取り付けられて男性器から排出された尿を受ける男性器用の補助吸収具に止着されて使用されてもよい。   As described above, the shape-retaining member according to the embodiment may be used for various types of absorbent articles. For example, the shape-retaining member is in contact with the skin on the abdomen side of the wearer and the skin on the back side. It may be used by being fastened to an open-type disposable diaper in which the part is fastened around the waist. Further, the shape-retaining member may be attached to a male genitalia and fastened to an auxiliary absorbent device for male genitalia that receives urine discharged from the male genitalia.
