(Advantageous effects) When using a pants-type diaper, the most easily peeled off portion at the side edge joint is the upper end (the waist opening is the end of the crochet), and then the lower end (leg). The opening portion is easily peeled off at the end of the hole, and the middle portion between them is the most difficult to peel off. Therefore, in solving the above-mentioned problems, the strength of the joint portion in the longitudinal direction is set in the range of 2.0 to 6.0 kg / 50 mm in correspondence with the ease of peeling of the joint portion in the longitudinal direction during use. It is desirable to make them different. As a result, after use, even a weak woman or an elderly person can easily peel off the joint portion, and at the time of use, the joint portion does not easily come off.

Further, the original fabric of the air-through nonwoven fabric sheet has a fiber orientation along the longitudinal direction (MD direction), and when it is supplied to an ordinary paper diaper production line, the fiber orientation direction of the air-through nonwoven fabric sheet is around the diaper. It will follow the direction. Although the strength of the air-through nonwoven fabric sheet is relatively high in the fiber orientation direction, the strength in the CD direction orthogonal thereto is relatively low. Therefore, when this is used, the strength of the outermost sheet in the diaper circumferential direction is relatively high. Become higher.

With this structure, since the constituent elements of the respective parts are different, as described above, the relationship of upper end joining strength X> lower end joining strength Y> intermediate portion joining strength Z is established. . Further, particularly in this case, the strength relationship of 1.2Z ≦ X ≦ 3.0Z 1.0Z <Y ≦ 2.0Z is obtained. Furthermore, by using the soft air-through nonwoven fabric sheet as described above as the outermost sheet 5 included as a common element in all the portions 30U, 30M, 30B of the joint portion 30, the joint strength is 2.0 to 6.0 kg. / 50 mm, especially 2.1 to 4.2
It can be delicately lowered to 50 kg / 50 mm, so that the side edge joint portion 30 can be easily peeled off even after use, even for a woman or an elderly person with weak strength, and the side edge joint portion can be used at the time of use. The contradictory characteristics that 30 is more difficult to peel off can be achieved at the same time.

Here, the strength of the joint portion according to the present invention can be measured as follows. That is, as shown in FIG. 6, (A) First, in the upper end portion 30U, the intermediate portion 30M, and the lower end portion 30B of the joint portion 30, a portion having a circumferential length of 60 mm and a width of 50 mm is cut out on the ventral side and the dorsal side, respectively. Is a test piece TS. (B) Next, the test piece TS is set in a tensile tester so as to be pulled in a direction corresponding to the circumferential direction of the diaper. At this time, the upper and lower end portions e1 and e2 having a width of 10 mm are respectively sandwiched and fixed by the upper and lower chucks of a tensile tester (not shown). The operating conditions of the tester are set to a crosshead speed of 500 mm / min and a chuck distance of 100 mm. After that, the tensile tester is operated to perform measurement until the joint is broken, and the breaking point is read from the chart obtained as a result, which is taken as the joint strength.

On the other hand, in addition to the above method, the constituent elements of the joint portion 30 (in the above example, the outermost sheet 5, the pressing sheet 6, the leak prevention sheet 11, the elastic members 7, 8, 9 and the adhesive). It is possible to manufacture a pant-type disposable diaper satisfying the conditions of the present invention by appropriately changing the type, presence, number, material, joining temperature and the like, and it goes without saying that they are also included in the present invention. Absent. For example, as will be apparent from the examples described below, the bonding strength can be increased by reducing the amount of the adhesive used for bonding the sheets to each other at the bonding portion. Therefore, by changing the amount of adhesive used in the longitudinal direction in combination with the selection of the above-mentioned non-woven fabric or alone, specifically, the amount of adhesive used is: upper end>middle> lower end. With such a structure, a pants-type paper diaper satisfying the conditions of the present invention can be obtained. The preferable amount of the adhesive used in the present invention is 5 to 10 g / m 2 .
