Description

本発明は、パンツ型の着用物品に関する。   The present invention relates to a pants-type wearing article.

従来、前ウエスト域と、後ウエスト域と、前後ウエスト域の間に位置するクロッチ域とを有し、クロッチ域から前後ウエスト域へ延びる吸液性コアを含むシャーシを備え、ウエスト開口と一対のレッグ開口とを備えたパンツ型の着用物品は公知である。例えば、特許文献1には、前後ウエスト域及びクロッチ域と、吸液性コアとを含むシャーシを備え、前後ウエスト域には、横方向へ延びる複数条のストリング状又はストランド状のウエスト弾性体が伸長可能に収縮した状態で配置された着用物品が開示されている。   Conventionally, it has a front waist region, a rear waist region, a crotch region located between the front and rear waist regions, and includes a chassis including a liquid-absorbing core extending from the crotch region to the front and rear waist regions, and a pair of waist openings and Pants-type wearing articles with leg openings are known. For example, Patent Document 1 includes a chassis including a front and rear waist region, a crotch region, and a liquid-absorbing core, and a plurality of string-like or strand-like waist elastic bodies extending in the lateral direction are provided in the front and rear waist region. A wearing article arranged in a stretchable and contracted state is disclosed.

この着用物品では、吸液性コアの縦方向(長手方向)外側の領域であって、縦方向において前ウエスト域のウエスト開口縁部と吸液性コアと間に位置する弾性域(以下、第1領域という)と、該第1領域と前後方向において対向し、縦方向において後ウエスト域のウエスト開口縁部と吸液性コアと間に位置する弾性域(以下、第2領域という)とを有する。第1領域において隣接するウエスト弾性体の離間寸法(ピッチ)と、第2領域において隣接するウエスト弾性体の離間寸法とは、等しく設定されている。それによって、第1領域と第2領域との縦方向における曲げ剛性はほぼ等しくなっている。   In this wearing article, the elastic region (hereinafter referred to as the first) is a region outside the longitudinal direction (longitudinal direction) of the liquid-absorbent core and is located between the waist opening edge of the front waist region and the liquid-absorbent core in the longitudinal direction. 1 region), and an elastic region (hereinafter referred to as a second region) that faces the first region in the front-rear direction and is positioned between the waist opening edge of the rear waist region and the liquid-absorbent core in the longitudinal direction. Have. The separation dimension (pitch) of the waist elastic bodies adjacent in the first region and the separation dimension of the waist elastic bodies adjacent in the second region are set to be equal. Thereby, the bending rigidity in the vertical direction of the first region and the second region is substantially equal.

Here, the “separation dimension in the longitudinal direction Y of each elastic body” refers to the dimension in the longitudinal direction Y in the non-existing region of the elastic body formed between the elastic bodies adjacent to each other in the longitudinal direction Y. In order to make the separation dimension of the rear waist elastic body 74 smaller than that of the front waist elastic body 72, the number of the rear waist elastic bodies 74 is larger than the number of the front waist elastic bodies 72, This can be realized by adopting a configuration in which the fineness (thickness) is larger than the fineness of the front waist elastic body 72.

このように、後中間弾性域73Bの後ウエスト弾性体74の本数が前中間弾性域71Bの前ウエスト弾性体72の本数よりも多く、後中間弾性域73Bの後ウエスト弾性体74の縦方向Yの離間寸法が前中間弾性域71Bの前ウエスト弾性体72のそれよりも小さいことから、後中間弾性域73Bの縦方向Yにおける曲げ剛性(すなわち、横方向Xに延びる折曲線が形成される曲げに対する剛性)は、前中間弾性域71Bの縦方向Yにおける曲げ剛性よりも比較的に高くなる。また、前後ウエスト域11,12にストリング状又はストランド状の前後ウエスト弾性体72,74を配置することにより、後ウエスト域12が着用者の臀部を抜けて腰部まで引き上げられた際、後ウエスト域12にたくれを生じることなく、前後ウエスト域11,12を着用者の肌に押し当てることができ、おむつ10のずれを防止してフィット性を向上させることができる。   Thus, the number of the rear waist elastic bodies 74 in the rear intermediate elastic region 73B is larger than the number of the front waist elastic bodies 72 in the front intermediate elastic region 71B, and the longitudinal direction Y of the rear waist elastic body 74 in the rear intermediate elastic region 73B. Is smaller than that of the front waist elastic body 72 of the front intermediate elastic region 71B, the bending rigidity in the longitudinal direction Y of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B (that is, the bending in which a folding line extending in the horizontal direction X is formed) Is relatively higher than the bending rigidity in the longitudinal direction Y of the front intermediate elastic region 71B. In addition, by arranging the string-like or strand-like front and rear waist elastic bodies 72 and 74 in the front and rear waist regions 11 and 12, when the rear waist region 12 is pulled up to the waist through the wearer's buttocks, the rear waist region The front and rear waist regions 11 and 12 can be pressed against the wearer's skin without causing warping of the diaper 12, and the fit of the diaper 10 can be prevented and improved.

後中間弾性域73Bの曲げ剛性を前中間弾性域71Bの曲げ剛性よりも比較的に高くするためには、後中間弾性域73Bの後ウエスト弾性体74の繊度が前中間弾性域71Bの前ウエスト弾性体72のそれよりも大きいものを用いる等の設定を採用することができる。また、後記の変更例や他の実施形態に示すとおり、後中間弾性域73Bに前中間弾性域71Bに比して縦方向Yの曲げ剛性が高くなるような要素(止着テープ等の剛性付与部材、不織布製又はプラスチック製の補助シート等)を付加することによって、それらの曲げ剛性の相関関係を前中間弾性域71B<後中間弾性域73Bとすることもできる。   In order to make the bending rigidity of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B relatively higher than the bending rigidity of the front intermediate elastic region 71B, the fineness of the rear waist elastic body 74 of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B is the front waist of the front intermediate elastic region 71B. Settings such as using a larger elastic body 72 can be employed. In addition, as shown in the modified examples and other embodiments described later, the rear intermediate elastic region 73B has an element that has higher bending rigidity in the longitudinal direction Y than the front intermediate elastic region 71B. By adding a member, an auxiliary sheet made of nonwoven fabric or plastic, etc., the correlation between the bending stiffnesses can be made to be the front intermediate elastic region 71B <the rear intermediate elastic region 73B.

また、本実施形態のように、前後ウエスト弾性体72,74の構成のみによって両弾性域71B,73Bの曲げ剛性を相違させる場合において、例えば、後ウエスト弾性体74の本数を前ウエスト弾性体72のそれよりも多くして、必然的に前者のピッチが後者のピッチよりも小さくなる場合には、後ウエスト弾性体74間の非弾性部分(弾性部材の非存在領域)に形成されて縦方向Yにおける曲げの妨げとなる横方向Xに延びるギャザーの列の数が、前ウエスト弾性体72間の非弾性部分(弾性部材の非存在領域)に形成される横方向Xに延びるギャザーの列の数よりも多くなるので、前者の方が後者よりもその曲げ剛性が高くなるといえる。また、後ウエスト弾性体74間の非弾性部分には比較的に小さいギャザーが形成されるのに対し、前ウエスト弾性体71間の非弾性部分には比較的大きなギャザーが形成されるので、前者の方が後者よりもその曲げ剛性が高くなるといえる。   Further, when the bending rigidity of both elastic regions 71B and 73B is made different only by the configuration of the front and rear waist elastic bodies 72 and 74 as in the present embodiment, for example, the number of the rear waist elastic bodies 74 is set to the front waist elastic body 72. If the former pitch is inevitably smaller than that of the latter, it is formed in the non-elastic portion (the non-existing region of the elastic member) between the rear waist elastic bodies 74 and is longitudinally formed. The number of gather rows extending in the transverse direction X that hinders bending in Y is the number of gather rows extending in the transverse direction X formed in the non-elastic portion between the front waist elastic bodies 72 (the non-existence region of the elastic member). Since the number is larger than the number, it can be said that the former has higher bending rigidity than the latter. In addition, a relatively small gather is formed in the non-elastic portion between the rear waist elastic bodies 74, whereas a relatively large gather is formed in the non-elastic portion between the front waist elastic bodies 71. It can be said that the bending rigidity is higher than that of the latter.

図7は、従来のパンツ型着用物品の一例を示すおむつ110を着用する際の状態を示す説明図であり、図8は、本実施形態のおむつ10を着用する際の状態を示す説明図である。   FIG. 7 is an explanatory view showing a state when wearing a diaper 110 showing an example of a conventional pants-type wearing article, and FIG. 8 is an explanatory view showing a state when wearing the diaper 10 of the present embodiment. is there.

図7を参照すると、従来のおむつ110においては、前ウエスト弾性体及び後ウエスト弾性体174として同一のストリング状又はストランド状の弾性材料を使用し、前ウエスト域の前中間弾性域171Bに配置された前ウエスト弾性体の本数が、後ウエスト域の後中間弾性域173Bに配置された後ウエスト弾性体174の本数と同じに設定されている。かかる構成を有する従来のおむつでは、前ウエスト弾性体のピッチが後ウエスト弾性体174のピッチとほぼ等しく、前中間弾性域171Bの曲げ剛性が比較的に低くなることから、着用時においてウエスト開口を拡げたときに前ウエスト域側において前中間弾性域171Bが折れ曲がって指を引っ掛けることができ、引き上げ操作が容易になる一方、後ウエスト域においては、後中間弾性域173Bも前中間弾性域171Bと同様に折れ曲がって後外側弾性域173Aが大腿部77と臀部78との段差79に当たって引き上げ難くなり、おむつ110をスムーズに引き上げられることができない。更に、後中間弾性域173Bが折曲されて、おむつ110の引き上げが抑制されることで、後内側弾性域173Cが折曲されやすくなる。かかる状態において無理に後ウエスト域を引き上げると、後中間弾性域173Bがたくれたままの状態となり、着用感が損なわれるだけでなく、***物の漏れの原因となるおそれもある。   Referring to FIG. 7, in the conventional diaper 110, the same string-like or strand-like elastic material is used as the front waist elastic body and the rear waist elastic body 174 and is disposed in the front intermediate elastic region 171 </ b> B of the front waist region. The number of the front waist elastic bodies is set to be the same as the number of the rear waist elastic bodies 174 disposed in the rear intermediate elastic area 173B of the rear waist area. In the conventional diaper having such a configuration, the pitch of the front waist elastic body is substantially equal to the pitch of the rear waist elastic body 174, and the bending rigidity of the front intermediate elastic region 171B is relatively low. When the front waist region is expanded, the front intermediate elastic region 171B can be bent and hooked with a finger to facilitate the pulling operation. On the other hand, in the rear waist region, the rear intermediate elastic region 173B is also separated from the front intermediate elastic region 171B. Similarly, the rear outer elastic region 173A is bent and hits the step 79 between the thigh 77 and the buttocks 78, making it difficult to pull up, and the diaper 110 cannot be pulled up smoothly. Furthermore, the rear middle elastic region 173B is bent and the pulling up of the diaper 110 is suppressed, so that the rear inner elastic region 173C is easily bent. If the rear waist region is forcibly pulled up in such a state, the rear intermediate elastic region 173B remains in a folded state, which not only impairs the wearing feeling but also may cause excrement leakage.

図8を参照すると、既述のとおり、本実施形態に係るおむつ10においては、前後ウエスト弾性体72,74が同一のストリング状又はストランド状の弾性材料から形成されており、後中間弾性域73Bに配置された後ウエスト弾性体74の本数が、前中間弾性域71Bに配置された前ウエスト弾性体72のそれよりも多くなっている。したがって、後中間弾性域73Bの縦方向における曲げ剛性が前中間弾性域71Bの縦方向における曲げ剛性に比して高くなっていることから、着用時においておむつ10のウエスト開口23を拡げたときに前中間弾性域71Bが折れ曲がって指を引っ掛けることができ、引き上げ操作が容易になる。また、後ウエスト域12においては、後中間弾性域73Bが、折曲した前中間弾性域71Bによるそれを折曲させようとする作用に抗することにより、折れ曲がることがないので、後ウエスト域12全体を着用者の身体にフィットさせた状態のまま引っ張り上げることができ、後外側弾性域73Aが大腿部77と臀部78との段差79に引っ掛かるおそれはない。更に、後内側弾性域73Cは後中間弾性域73Bの引き上げに乗じて、折曲されることなくスムーズに引き上げられる。このようにスムーズに後ウエスト域12を引き上げて着用することができることから、その一部がたくれて着用感が低下したり、***物の漏れを生じたりするおそれはない。   Referring to FIG. 8, as described above, in the diaper 10 according to the present embodiment, the front and rear waist elastic bodies 72 and 74 are formed of the same string-like or strand-like elastic material, and the rear intermediate elastic region 73B. The number of the rear waist elastic bodies 74 disposed in the front is larger than that of the front waist elastic body 72 disposed in the front intermediate elastic region 71B. Therefore, since the bending stiffness in the longitudinal direction of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B is higher than the bending stiffness in the longitudinal direction of the front intermediate elastic region 71B, when the waist opening 23 of the diaper 10 is widened when worn. The front intermediate elastic region 71B can be bent and hooked with a finger, and the lifting operation is facilitated. Further, in the rear waist region 12, the rear intermediate elastic region 73B does not bend by resisting the action of bending the front intermediate elastic region 71B so as to be bent. The entire body can be pulled up while being fitted to the wearer's body, and there is no possibility that the rear outer elastic region 73A will be caught by the step 79 between the thigh 77 and the heel 78. Furthermore, the rear inner elastic region 73C is pulled up smoothly without being bent by taking advantage of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B. Since the rear waist region 12 can be pulled up and worn smoothly in this way, there is no risk that a part of the waistline will collapse and the feeling of wear will decrease, or the excrement will leak.

従来のおむつ110のように、前後中間弾性域171B,173Bに配置された前ウエスト弾性体及び後ウエスト弾性体174の本数を同じにして両域171B,173Bの縦方向の曲げ剛性がほぼ等しい場合には、後ウエスト域が位置ずれして着用感の低下を招くおそれがある一方、前ウエスト弾性体及び後ウエスト弾性体174の本数、ピッチ、繊度等の各種設定を調整して前中間弾性域171Bの縦方向の曲げ剛性を後中間弾性域173Bがたくれない程度の曲げ剛性と同程度にした場合や後中間弾性域173Bの曲げ剛性よりも高くした場合には、おむつ110の着用時において前ウエスト域全体が腹部にフィットした状態となり引き上げるときに掴み難くなり操作性が低下するとともに、腹部を圧迫して不快感を与えるおそれがある。本実施形態におけるおむつ10においては、前中間弾性域71Bに配置された前ウエスト弾性体72の本数が後中間弾性域73Bに配置された後ウエスト弾性体74のそれよりも多くなっており、前中間弾性域71Bの縦方向Yの曲げ剛性と後中間弾性域73Bの縦方向Yの曲げ剛性との相関関係が、前中間弾性域71B<後中間弾性域73Bになっていることから、おむつ10の着用操作性と着用感の低下防止、及びそれによる***物の漏れ防止という複数の技術的効果を奏することができる。   When the number of front waist elastic bodies and rear waist elastic bodies 174 arranged in the front and rear intermediate elastic regions 171B and 173B is the same as in the conventional diaper 110, the bending rigidity in the vertical direction of both the regions 171B and 173B is substantially equal. There is a possibility that the rear waist region may be displaced to cause a decrease in wearing feeling, while the front intermediate elastic region may be adjusted by adjusting various settings such as the number of the front waist elastic body and the rear waist elastic body 174, the pitch, and the fineness. When the bending rigidity of the longitudinal direction of 171B is made the same as the bending rigidity of the rear intermediate elastic region 173B, or when it is higher than the bending rigidity of the rear intermediate elastic region 173B, when the diaper 110 is worn The entire front waist area fits into the abdomen, making it difficult to grasp and lowering operability, and pressing the abdomen may cause discomfort. . In the diaper 10 according to the present embodiment, the number of front waist elastic bodies 72 arranged in the front intermediate elastic area 71B is larger than that of the rear waist elastic bodies 74 arranged in the rear intermediate elastic area 73B. Since the correlation between the bending stiffness in the longitudinal direction Y of the intermediate elastic region 71B and the bending stiffness in the longitudinal direction Y of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B is the front intermediate elastic region 71B <the rear intermediate elastic region 73B, the diaper 10 A plurality of technical effects can be obtained, such as prevention of a decrease in wearing operability and wearing feeling, and prevention of leakage of excrement.

<曲げ剛性の測定方法>
曲げ剛性は、IMADA製トルク試験機(型番EX−0762)(ロードセル:引張・圧縮50N、トルク1N)を用いて測定した。おむつ10の前後ウエスト域11,12のそれぞれにおいて、ウエスト開口23から縦方向Yに35mm離間した位置からクロッチ域13側へ向かって縦方向Yの寸法が45mm、縦軸Pを中心として横方向Xの寸法が30mmの試験片を準備した。図9は、後ウエスト域12における試験片40の採取部位を示す説明図である。試験片40の長手方向(縦方向Y)の両端部41,42を10mmずつ試験機の一対のチャックで把持し、一方のチャックを他方のチャックを中心に回転させ、これによって折り曲げられた試験片40の曲げ剛性をトルク試験機で測定する。回転速度は30rpm、回転角度は50度とし、測定角度は40度とした。試験片は、前後ウエスト域11,12について各5組準備して(実施例1〜5)、これらの測定値(トルク強度)(単位:mN・m)の平均値を縦方向Yにおける平均曲げ剛性値とした。測定の対象となる前後ウエスト域11,12には、伸長状態で取り付けられた前後ウエスト弾性体72,74が存在するから、試験片をおむつ10から切り取る際には、前後ウエスト弾性体72,74の収縮力に抗して前後ウエスト域11,12を縦方向Y及び横方向Xに引っ張った状態で寸法を測った。表1に示すとおり、後中間弾性域73Bの曲げ剛性値B1は、いずれも前中間弾性域71Bの曲げ剛性値B2よりも高くなった。なお、前後中間弾性域71B,73Bの縦方向Yにおける曲げ剛性は、上記基準により準備した試験片をJIS L1096 19.1A法(45°カンチレバー法)に基づいて測定して比較することもできる。
<Measurement method of bending stiffness>
The bending stiffness was measured using an IMADA torque tester (model number EX-0762) (load cell: tension / compression 50N, torque 1N). In each of the front and rear waist regions 11 and 12 of the diaper 10, the dimension in the longitudinal direction Y is 45 mm from the position spaced 35 mm in the longitudinal direction Y from the waist opening 23 toward the crotch region 13, and the lateral direction X about the longitudinal axis P. A test piece having a size of 30 mm was prepared. FIG. 9 is an explanatory view showing a collection part of the test piece 40 in the rear waist region 12. The test piece 40 is clamped at both ends 41 and 42 in the longitudinal direction (longitudinal direction Y) by 10 mm with a pair of chucks of the test machine, and one of the chucks is rotated around the other chuck, and the test piece is bent. The bending stiffness of 40 is measured with a torque tester. The rotation speed was 30 rpm, the rotation angle was 50 degrees, and the measurement angle was 40 degrees. Five test specimens were prepared for each of the front and rear waist regions 11 and 12 (Examples 1 to 5), and the average value of these measured values (torque strength) (unit: mN · m) was averaged in the longitudinal direction Y. The stiffness value was used. Since the front and rear waist regions 11 and 12 to be measured have front and rear waist elastic bodies 72 and 74 attached in an extended state, the front and rear waist elastic bodies 72 and 74 are cut when the test piece is cut from the diaper 10. The dimensions were measured in a state where the front and rear waist regions 11 and 12 were pulled in the vertical direction Y and the horizontal direction X against the contraction force. As shown in Table 1, the bending rigidity value B1 of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B was higher than the bending rigidity value B2 of the front intermediate elastic region 71B. In addition, the bending rigidity in the longitudinal direction Y of the front and rear intermediate elastic regions 71B and 73B can be measured by comparing a test piece prepared according to the above standard based on the JIS L1096 19.1A method (45 ° cantilever method).

各弾性域における弾性体の材料、繊度、伸長倍率、離間寸法を適宜設定することによって、各弾性域の伸長応力、具体的には、吸収体51の横方向X外側の部位の所定幅(30mm幅)における171%伸長時(最大伸長時の寸法を100%としたときの71%の寸法)における伸長応力は、前外側弾性域71Aが約2.5N、前中間弾性域71Bが約2.5N、前内側弾性域71Cが約5.0N、後外側弾性域73Aが約2.5N、後中間弾性域73Bが約3.0N,後内側弾性域73Cが約5.0Nに設定される。前後ウエスト弾性体72,74の本数及びピッチを調整して後中間弾性域73Bの曲げ剛性を前中間弾性域71Bのそれよりも高くした場合には、後中間弾性域73Bの伸長応力が前中間弾性域71Bの伸長応力よりも高くなる。また、前外側弾性域71Aと前中間弾性域71Bの伸長応力の差は約0〜3.0N、前中間弾性域71Bと前内側弾性域71Cの伸長応力の差は約0.5〜3.0N、後外側弾性域73Aと後中間弾性域73Bの伸長応力の差は約0〜3.0N、後中間弾性域73Bと後内側弾性域73Cの伸長応力の差は約1.0〜5.0Nである。   By appropriately setting the material, fineness, expansion ratio, and separation distance of the elastic body in each elastic region, the elongation stress of each elastic region, specifically, the predetermined width (30 mm of the portion outside the lateral direction X of the absorber 51) The elongation stress at 171% elongation (71% dimension when the maximum elongation dimension is 100%) in the width) is about 2.5N for the front outer elastic region 71 and about 2.N for the front intermediate elastic region 71B. 5N, the front inner elastic region 71C is set to about 5.0N, the rear outer elastic region 73A is set to about 2.5N, the rear intermediate elastic region 73B is set to about 3.0N, and the rear inner elastic region 73C is set to about 5.0N. When the number and pitch of the front and rear waist elastic bodies 72 and 74 are adjusted so that the bending rigidity of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B is higher than that of the front intermediate elastic region 71B, the extension stress of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B is It becomes higher than the elongation stress of the elastic region 71B. Further, the difference in elongation stress between the front outer elastic region 71A and the front intermediate elastic region 71B is about 0 to 3.0N, and the difference in elongation stress between the front intermediate elastic region 71B and the front inner elastic region 71C is about 0.5-3. 0N, the difference in elongation stress between the rear outer elastic region 73A and the rear intermediate elastic region 73B is about 0-3.0N, and the difference in elongation stress between the rear intermediate elastic region 73B and the rear inner elastic region 73C is about 1.0-5. 0N.

後ウエスト弾性体74の本数及びピッチを調整して、後中間弾性域73Bの伸長応力を後外側弾性域73Aのそれよりも高くすることで、後中間弾性域73Bにおける、たくれの発生を抑え、おむつ10の後ウエスト域12を着用者の臀部に沿わせてスムーズに引き上げることができる。また、伸長応力が比較的に大きく変化する部位では、シャーシ14が折曲されやすくなるが、後外側弾性域73Aと後中間弾性域73Bの伸長応力の差を3.0N以下とすることで、後外側弾性域73Aと後中間弾性域73Bの境界部分におけるシャーシ14の折れ曲がりの発生を抑えることができる。なお、前中間弾性域71Aにおいて、シャーシ14を折曲しやすくするために、前ウエスト弾性体72の本数及びピッチを調整して、前中間弾性域71Bの伸長応力を前外側弾性域71Aのそれよりも低くすることがより好ましい。   By adjusting the number and pitch of the rear waist elastic bodies 74 and making the elongation stress of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B higher than that of the rear outer elastic region 73A, the occurrence of warping in the rear intermediate elastic region 73B is suppressed. The rear waist region 12 of the diaper 10 can be smoothly raised along the wearer's buttocks. Further, the chassis 14 is easily bent at a portion where the extension stress changes relatively greatly, but by setting the difference in extension stress between the rear outer elastic region 73A and the rear intermediate elastic region 73B to 3.0 N or less, Occurrence of bending of the chassis 14 at the boundary portion between the rear outer elastic region 73A and the rear intermediate elastic region 73B can be suppressed. In order to make it easier to bend the chassis 14 in the front intermediate elastic region 71A, the number and pitch of the front waist elastic bodies 72 are adjusted so that the elongation stress of the front intermediate elastic region 71B is that of the front outer elastic region 71A. It is more preferable to make it lower.

図5を参照すると、前外側弾性域71Aの縦方向Yにおける最内側前ウエスト弾性体72aと前中間弾性域71Bの縦方向Yにおける最外側前ウエスト弾性体72bの縦方向Yの離間寸法R1は、約5〜20mmであることが好ましく、本実施形態では約16mmである。前中間弾性域71Bの縦方向Yにおける最内側前ウエスト弾性体72cと前内側弾性域71Cの縦方向Yにおける最外側前ウエスト弾性体72dの縦方向Yの離間寸法R2は、約5〜15mmであることが好ましく、本実施形態では約10mmである。図6を参照すると、後外側弾性域73Aの縦方向Yにおける最内側後ウエスト弾性体74aと後中間弾性域73Bの縦方向Yにおける最外側後ウエスト弾性体74bの縦方向Yの離間寸法R3は、約5〜15mmであることが好ましく、本実施形態では約7mmである。後中間弾性域73Bの縦方向Yにおける最内側後ウエスト弾性体74cと後内側弾性域73Cの縦方向Yにおける最外側後ウエスト弾性体74dの縦方向Yの離間寸法R4は、約10〜25mmであることが好ましく、本実施形態では約15mmである。ここで、各弾性体の離間寸法とは、互いに隣接する弾性体の間に位置する弾性体の非存在領域の縦方向Yの寸法をいう。後外側弾性域73Aと後中間弾性域73Bの縦方向Yの離間寸法R3は、前外側弾性域71Aと前中間弾性域71Bの縦方向Yの離間寸法R1よりも小さく設定されることが好ましい。   Referring to FIG. 5, the separation dimension R1 in the longitudinal direction Y of the innermost front waist elastic body 72a in the longitudinal direction Y of the front outer elastic region 71A and the outermost front waist elastic body 72b in the longitudinal direction Y of the front intermediate elastic region 71B is About 5 to 20 mm, and in this embodiment about 16 mm. The separation dimension R2 in the longitudinal direction Y of the innermost front waist elastic body 72c in the longitudinal direction Y of the front intermediate elastic region 71B and the outermost front waist elastic body 72d in the longitudinal direction Y of the front inner elastic region 71C is about 5 to 15 mm. It is preferable that it is about 10 mm in this embodiment. Referring to FIG. 6, the separation dimension R3 in the longitudinal direction Y of the innermost rear waist elastic body 74a in the longitudinal direction Y of the rear outer elastic region 73A and the outermost rear waist elastic body 74b in the longitudinal direction Y of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B is In this embodiment, it is about 7 mm. The separation dimension R4 in the longitudinal direction Y of the innermost rear waist elastic body 74c in the longitudinal direction Y of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B and the outermost rear waist elastic body 74d in the longitudinal direction Y of the rear inner elastic region 73C is about 10 to 25 mm. It is preferable that it is about 15 mm in this embodiment. Here, the separation dimension of each elastic body refers to the dimension in the longitudinal direction Y of the non-existing region of the elastic body located between the elastic bodies adjacent to each other. The separation dimension R3 in the longitudinal direction Y of the rear outer elastic region 73A and the rear intermediate elastic region 73B is preferably set smaller than the separation dimension R1 in the longitudinal direction Y of the front outer elastic region 71A and the front intermediate elastic region 71B.

後外側弾性域73Aと後中間弾性域73Bの間の部位、及び前外側弾性域71Aと前中間弾性域71Bの間の部位では、伸長応力が変化する、すなわち縦方向Yにおける曲げ剛性が変化することにより、シャーシ14が折曲されやすくなるが、後ウエスト域12における離間寸法R3を前ウエスト域11における離間寸法R1よりも小さくすることで、後ウエスト域12に生じるシャーシ14の折曲を抑えることができる。   In the region between the rear outer elastic region 73A and the rear intermediate elastic region 73B and the region between the front outer elastic region 71A and the front intermediate elastic region 71B, the extension stress changes, that is, the bending rigidity in the longitudinal direction Y changes. As a result, the chassis 14 is easily bent. However, by making the separation dimension R3 in the rear waist region 12 smaller than the separation dimension R1 in the front waist region 11, bending of the chassis 14 that occurs in the rear waist region 12 is suppressed. be able to.

吸液構造体15の前端縁15aは、前外側弾性域71Aの最内側前ウエスト弾性体72aと前中間弾性域71Bの最外側前ウエスト弾性体72bとの間に位置することが好ましく、最外側前ウエスト弾性体72b寄りに位置することがより好ましい。伸長応力が変化する前外側弾性域71Aと前中間弾性域71Bとの間に前端縁15aが配置されることで、前端縁15aを基点として前ウエスト域11が折れ曲がり易くなり、おむつ10のウエスト開口23を拡げる際に、指を掛け易くなる。吸液構造体15の後端縁15bは、前後方向Zにおいて前端縁15aと対向して位置する、又は前端縁15aよりもウエスト開口23側に位置することが好ましい。後端縁15bがウエスト開口23の近傍まで延びていることで、吸液構造体15のエンドフラップ56bの存在により後中間弾性域73Bの曲げ剛性を高めて、おむつ10を引き上げる際に生じる後ウエスト域12の折れ曲がりを一層抑えることができる。   The front end edge 15a of the liquid absorbing structure 15 is preferably located between the innermost front waist elastic body 72a of the front outer elastic region 71A and the outermost front waist elastic body 72b of the front intermediate elastic region 71B. More preferably, it is located closer to the front waist elastic body 72b. By arranging the front end edge 15a between the front outer elastic region 71A and the front intermediate elastic region 71B where the elongation stress changes, the front waist region 11 is easily bent from the front end edge 15a, and the waist opening of the diaper 10 When expanding 23, it becomes easy to put a finger. It is preferable that the rear end edge 15b of the liquid absorbing structure 15 is located opposite to the front end edge 15a in the front-rear direction Z, or is located closer to the waist opening 23 than the front end edge 15a. The rear waist 15b is generated when the diaper 10 is pulled up by increasing the bending rigidity of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B due to the presence of the end flap 56b of the liquid absorbing structure 15 because the rear edge 15b extends to the vicinity of the waist opening 23. The bending of the region 12 can be further suppressed.

<Modification>
FIG. 10 is a modification of the diaper 10 of the first embodiment, and the diaper 10 extends in the longitudinal direction Y and the lateral direction X until the maximum elongation of each elastic body (to the extent that gathers due to the contracting action of the elastic body disappear). It is the top view which looked at the back waist area 12 from the back surface side (non-skin opposing surface side).

変形例におけるおむつ10では、後中間弾性域73Bの中央部66において、おむつ10を廃棄するときに使用する止着テープとして機能する、剛性付与部材65が配置されている。図11を参照すると、剛性付与部材65は、後ウエストシート27の非肌対向面側に配置され、縦方向Yへ延びるプラスチックシートから形成されており、折曲線を介して互いに積層された第1部位61、第2部位62及び第3部位63によって構成され、積層状態の断面はZ形に形成される。第1部位61は、接着剤を介して後ウエストシート27に固定され、第2部位62は第1部位61に剥離可能に接合され、第3部位63は第2部位62に剥離可能に接合されている。   In the diaper 10 in the modified example, a rigidity imparting member 65 that functions as a fastening tape used when the diaper 10 is discarded is disposed in the central portion 66 of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B. Referring to FIG. 11, the rigidity imparting member 65 is disposed on the non-skin facing surface side of the rear waist sheet 27, is formed of a plastic sheet extending in the longitudinal direction Y, and is laminated on each other via a folding line. The section 61, the second section 62, and the third section 63 are configured, and the cross section in the stacked state is formed in a Z shape. The first part 61 is fixed to the rear waist sheet 27 via an adhesive, the second part 62 is detachably joined to the first part 61, and the third part 63 is detachably joined to the second part 62. ing.

このようなおむつ10では、後中間弾性域73Bに剛性付与部材65が取り付けられていることによって、後中間弾性域73Bの曲げ剛性が高くなり、おむつ10を着用する際に生じる後中間弾性域73Bのたくれをより抑えることができる。剛性付与部材65は、プラスチックシートに限られず、単一又は複数層の繊維不織布等を用いることもできる。   In such a diaper 10, the rigidity imparting member 65 is attached to the rear intermediate elastic region 73B, whereby the bending rigidity of the rear intermediate elastic region 73B is increased, and the rear intermediate elastic region 73B generated when the diaper 10 is worn. It is possible to further suppress the accumulation. The stiffness imparting member 65 is not limited to a plastic sheet, and a single or multiple layers of fiber nonwoven fabric or the like can also be used.

In the diaper 10 illustrated in FIG. 10, the rigidity imparting member 65 is disposed in a region overlapping the vertical axis P in the central portion 66, and extends from the rear inner elastic region 73C to the rear outer elastic region 73A. When the diaper 10 is lifted from the wearer's leg toward the waist, the central portion 66 is likely to be bent against the wearer's buttocks 78 to prevent the diaper 10 from being lifted. The occurrence of cramping can be suppressed, and the diaper 10 can be smoothly pulled up along the buttocks 78. Further, the rigidity imparting member 65 may be disposed at the central portion 66 and both side portions 67 and 67 in the lateral direction X, and the bending of the rear waist region 12 can be further suppressed by disposing a plurality of the rigidity imparting members 65. . In addition, since the rigidity imparting member 65 is arranged to extend from the rear inner elastic region 73C to the rear outer elastic region 73A, the boundary portion between the rear outer elastic region 73A and the rear intermediate elastic region 73B, and the rear intermediate elastic region 73B and the rear The chassis 14 can be prevented from being bent at the boundary portion of the inner elastic region 73C.
