Description

本発明は、パンツ型使い捨ておむつに関する。 The present invention relates to a pants-type disposable diaper.

従来、着用者の腹側に配される腹側領域、着用者の股間部に配される股下領域及び着用者の背側に配される背側領域に亘る砂時計状の外装体と、該外装体の内面側に固定された吸収性本体とを備え、腹側部における外装体の両側縁部と背側部における外装体の両側縁部とが接合されて、一対のサイドシール部、ウエスト開口部及び一対のレッグ開口部が形成されているパンツ型使い捨ておむつが知られている。 Conventionally, an hourglass-shaped exterior body extending over the ventral region arranged on the ventral side of the wearer, the inseam region arranged on the crotch portion of the wearer, and the dorsal region arranged on the dorsal side of the wearer, and the exterior. It is equipped with an absorbent body fixed to the inner surface side of the body, and both side edges of the exterior body on the ventral side and both side edges of the exterior body on the dorsal side are joined to form a pair of side seals and a waist opening. Pants-type disposable diapers are known in which a portion and a pair of leg openings are formed.

このようなパンツ型使い捨ておむつにおいては、外装体の腹側領域、背側領域及び股下領域に弾性部材を伸長状態で固定してギャザーを形成し、身体へのフィット性を向上させている。例えば、一対のレッグ開口部の各開口周縁部に沿って各レッグ弾性部材を配し、該レッグ弾性部材を伸長状態で固定することで一対のレッグギャザーを形成して着両者の脚回りのフィット性を向上させている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。 In such a pants-type disposable diaper, elastic members are fixed in an extended state to the ventral region, the dorsal region, and the inseam region of the exterior body to form gathers, and the fit to the body is improved. For example, each leg elastic member is arranged along the peripheral edge of each opening of the pair of leg openings, and the leg elastic member is fixed in an extended state to form a pair of leg gathers to fit the legs of both wearers. The property is improved (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

It refers to the state in which it is expanded to the same size as when it is expanded in a plane with the influence of the members completely eliminated).

外装体10は、おむつ1では、図1及び図2に示すように、おむつ1の最外表面となる外層シート11と、外層シート11の内面側に配されている内層シート12と、これら両シート間11,12に伸長状態で固定された弾性部材とを備えている。外装体10は、吸収性本体5の外方全域に亘って延出しており、縦方向Xに沿う両側縁に、縦方向Xの中央部において横方向Yの内方に括れた括れ部10d,10dを有している。これら括れ部10d,10dは、外装体10の腹側領域Aの両側縁部AS,ASと背側領域Bの両側縁部BS,BSとを互いに重ね合わせて接合した際に、一対のレッグ開口部8,8となる部分である。弾性部材は、伸長状態で外装体10に固定されることでギャザーを形成する。尚、外装体10の備える弾性部材については後に詳述する。 In the diaper 1, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the exterior body 10 includes an outer layer sheet 11 which is the outermost surface of the diaper 1 and an inner layer sheet 12 arranged on the inner surface side of the outer layer sheet 11. An elastic member fixed in an extended state is provided between the sheets 11 and 12. The exterior body 10 extends over the entire outer surface of the absorbent body 5, and is constricted inward in the horizontal direction Y at the central portion of the vertical direction X on both side edges along the vertical direction X. It has 10d. These constricted portions 10d and 10d have a pair of leg openings when the bilateral edge portions AS and AS of the ventral region A of the exterior body 10 and the bilateral edge portions BS and BS of the dorsal region B are overlapped and joined to each other. It is a part that becomes parts 8 and 8. The elastic member forms gathers by being fixed to the exterior body 10 in an extended state. The elastic member included in the exterior body 10 will be described in detail later.

吸収性本体5は、おむつ1では、図2に示すように、液透過性の表面シート2と、液不透過性又は撥水性の裏面シート3と、これらの間に配された縦長の吸収体4とを備えている。吸収体4は、縦方向Xに長い吸収性コア40をコアラップシート45で被覆して構成されている。 In the diaper 1, the absorbent body 5 is a liquid-permeable front sheet 2, a liquid-impermeable or water-repellent back sheet 3, and a vertically long absorbent body arranged between them, as shown in FIG. It is equipped with 4. The absorber 4 is configured by coating an absorbent core 40 long in the vertical direction X with a core wrap sheet 45.

吸収性コア40は、おむつ1では、図2に示すおむつ1の展開且つ伸長状態において、股下領域Cにおける横方向Yの中央部に縦方向Xに延在する高坪量部41と、該高坪量部41の縦方向Xに沿う両側の外方に配され該高坪量部41よりも低坪量の一対の低坪量部42,42とを有している。また吸収性コア40は、図4に示すように、上部吸収層411と、上部吸収層411よりも縦方向X及び横方向Yの長さが長い下部吸収層412とを有する2層構造に形成されている。吸収性コア40では、下部吸収層412の肌対向面上に上部吸収層411が積層されて下部吸収層412及び上部吸収層411が重なる部分が高坪量部41であり、下部吸収層412の肌対向面上に上部吸収層411が積層されておらず下部吸収層412のみの部分が低坪量部42となっている。 In the diaper 1, the absorbent core 40 has a high basis weight portion 41 extending in the vertical direction X in the central portion of the horizontal direction Y in the inseam region C in the expanded and extended state of the diaper 1 shown in FIG. It has a pair of low basis weight portions 42, 42 having a basis weight lower than that of the high basis weight portion 41, which are arranged on both sides of the basis weight portion 41 along the vertical direction X. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the absorbent core 40 is formed into a two-layer structure having an upper absorbing layer 411 and a lower absorbing layer 412 having a length X in the vertical direction and Y in the horizontal direction longer than the upper absorbing layer 411. Has been done. In the absorbent core 40, the portion where the upper absorbing layer 411 is laminated on the skin facing surface of the lower absorbing layer 412 and the lower absorbing layer 412 and the upper absorbing layer 411 overlap is the high basis weight portion 41, and the lower absorbing layer 412 The upper absorption layer 411 is not laminated on the surface facing the skin, and only the lower absorption layer 412 is the low basis weight portion 42.

上部吸収層411は、おむつ1では、図2に示すおむつ1の展開且つ伸長状態において、おむつ1の股下領域Cから腹側領域Aに亘って配されており、背側領域Bには配されていない。上部吸収層411は、股下領域Cの縦方向Xの中央部付近から腹側領域Aに向かって幅が増大(漸増)しており、股下領域Cよりも腹側領域A側の方が幅広の平面視略T字状に形成されている。上部吸収層411の腹側領域A側の先端部は、腹側領域Aにおける後述する胴回り部Dまで延出している。下部吸収層412は、腹側領域Aから股下領域Cを通って背側領域Bに亘って配されており、縦方向Xに長い矩形状に形成されている。下部吸収層412は、縦方向Xの両端部それぞれが腹側領域A及び背側領域Bそれぞれの後述する胴回り部D間に亘っている。 In the diaper 1, the upper absorption layer 411 is arranged from the inseam region C of the diaper 1 to the ventral region A in the expanded and extended state of the diaper 1 shown in FIG. 2, and is arranged in the dorsal region B. Not. The width of the upper absorption layer 411 increases (gradually increases) from the vicinity of the central portion of the inseam region C in the vertical direction X toward the ventral region A, and is wider on the ventral region A side than on the inseam region C. It is formed in a substantially T-shape in plan view. The tip of the upper absorption layer 411 on the ventral region A side extends to the waist circumference portion D described later in the ventral region A. The lower absorption layer 412 is arranged from the ventral region A through the inseam region C to the dorsal region B, and is formed in a rectangular shape long in the vertical direction X. The lower absorption layer 412 extends between both ends of the vertical direction X between the ventral region A and the dorsal region B, which will be described later.

下部吸収層412は、おむつ1では、図2に示すおむつ1の展開且つ伸長状態において、該下部吸収層412を貫通する側部非積繊部44を有している。側部非積繊部44は、下部吸収層412の横方向Yにおける両側部それぞれに形成されている。言い換えれば、側部非積繊部44は、下部吸収層412の縦方向Xに沿う両側部それぞれに形成されている。即ち、おむつ1では、下部吸収層412に一対の側部非積繊部が形成されている。一対の側部非積繊部44,44は、下部吸収層412の肌対向面上に上部吸収層411が積層されておらず下部吸収層412のみの部分に形成されている。詳述すると、一対の側部非積繊部44,44は、上部吸収層411の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁に沿って該両側縁から横方向の外方の下部吸収層412に縦方向Xに延びて形成されている。下部吸収層412に一対の側部非積繊部44,44を設けることで、横方向Yの外方から内方に向かって股下領域Cに応力が発生した場合に、下部吸収層412の縦方向Xに沿う両側部の屈曲性を高めることができる。 In the diaper 1, the lower absorption layer 412 has a side non-stacked fiber portion 44 penetrating the lower absorption layer 412 in the expanded and extended state of the diaper 1 shown in FIG. The side non-stacked fiber portions 44 are formed on both side portions of the lower absorption layer 412 in the lateral direction Y. In other words, the side non-stacked fiber portions 44 are formed on both side portions of the lower absorption layer 412 along the vertical direction X. That is, in the diaper 1, a pair of side non-stacked portions are formed in the lower absorption layer 412. The pair of side non-stacked fiber portions 44, 44 are formed only in the lower absorption layer 412 without the upper absorption layer 411 being laminated on the skin facing surface of the lower absorption layer 412. More specifically, the pair of side non-stacked portions 44, 44 are vertically X from both side edges to the lateral outer lower absorption layer 412 along both side edges of the upper absorption layer 411 along the longitudinal direction X. It is formed by extending to. By providing the lower absorption layer 412 with a pair of side non-stacked fibers 44, 44, when stress is generated in the inseam region C from the outside to the inside in the lateral direction Y, the vertical direction of the lower absorption layer 412 The flexibility of both sides along the direction X can be increased.

また一対の側部非積繊部44,44は、図2に示すおむつ1の展開且つ伸長状態において、腹側領域A側の一対のサイドシール部S,Sの股下領域C側の内方端Sa,Saどうしを結んだ仮想腹側内方線Yaと、背側領域B側の一対のサイドシール部S,Sの股下領域C側の内方端Sb,Sbどうしを結んだ仮想背側内方線Ybとの間で縦方向Xに延びて配されている。一対の側部非積繊部44,44は、おむつ1を横方向Yに二分する縦方向Xに延びる縦中心線Xcに対して線対称に配されており、おむつ1の展開且つ伸長状態において、おむつ1の縦方向Xの略中央部に後述する横中心線Ycに跨って設けられることが好ましい。 Further, the pair of side non-stacked fibers 44, 44 are the inner ends of the pair of side seal portions S, S on the ventral region A side on the inseam region C side in the expanded and extended state of the diaper 1 shown in FIG. The virtual ventral inner line Ya connecting Sa and Sa and the virtual dorsal side connecting the inner ends Sb and Sb of the pair of side seal portions S and S on the dorsal region B side on the inseam region C side. It is arranged so as to extend in the vertical direction X with the direction line Yb. The pair of side non-stacked fibers 44, 44 are arranged line-symmetrically with respect to the vertical center line Xc extending in the vertical direction X that divides the diaper 1 into two in the horizontal direction Y, and in the expanded and extended state of the diaper 1. , It is preferable that the diaper 1 is provided at a substantially central portion in the vertical direction X so as to straddle the horizontal center line Yc described later.

尚、吸収性コア40の横方向Yの屈曲性を高める観点から、一対の側部非積繊部44,44は、おむつ1では、図4に示すように、吸収性コア40を厚さ方向に貫通しており、吸収性コア40を形成する材料(コア形成材料)が存在しない部分としたが、例えば、低坪量部42より少ない量のコア形成材料が20g/m2程度に若干存在している場合も、同様な効果を奏しうることから非積繊部に含めることができる。但し、該側部非積繊部に存するコア形成材料の坪量は50g/m2以下であることが好ましい。 From the viewpoint of increasing the flexibility of the absorbent core 40 in the lateral direction Y, the pair of side non-stacked fiber portions 44, 44 in the diaper 1 have the absorbent core 40 in the thickness direction as shown in FIG. There is no material (core forming material) that forms the absorbent core 40, but for example, there is a small amount of core forming material at about 20 g / m 2 that is smaller than the low basis weight portion 42. Even if it is, it can be included in the non-stacked fiber portion because the same effect can be obtained. However, the basis weight of the core forming material existing in the side non-stacked fiber portion is preferably 50 g / m 2 or less.

吸収性コア40は、おむつ1では、図4に示すように、上部吸収層411及び下部吸収層412の全体がコアラップシート45で被覆されている。コアラップシート45としては、各種公知のものを用いることができ、例えばティッシュペーパのような薄紙や透水性の不織布等が好ましく用いられる。吸収性コア40は、上部吸収層411と下部吸収層412とを、それぞれ別々にコアラップシート45で被覆した後、両者を積層したものであっても良い。この場合、上部吸収層411を被覆するコアラップシート45と下部吸収層412を被覆するコアラップシート45との間は接着しても接着しなくても良い。 As shown in FIG. 4, in the diaper 1, the absorbent core 40 is entirely covered with the core wrap sheet 45 of the upper absorbent layer 411 and the lower absorbent layer 412. As the core wrap sheet 45, various known materials can be used, and for example, a thin paper such as tissue paper or a water-permeable non-woven fabric is preferably used. The absorbent core 40 may be formed by coating the upper absorbing layer 411 and the lower absorbing layer 412 separately with the core wrap sheet 45, and then laminating the two. In this case, the core wrap sheet 45 that covers the upper absorption layer 411 and the core wrap sheet 45 that covers the lower absorption layer 412 may or may not be bonded.

吸収性本体5の両側には、おむつ1では、図2に示すおむつ1の展開且つ伸長状態において、一対の防漏カフ55,55が形成されている。各防漏カフ55は、吸収性本体5に接合された防漏カフ形成用シート56、該防漏カフ形成用シート56の自由端近傍に伸長状態で固定された防漏カフ形成用の弾性部材57、及び各防漏カフ55の固定端と自由端との間に伸長状態で固定された防漏カフ中間弾性部材58を備えている。図4に示す例では、防漏カフ形成用シート56として、所定幅の帯状の撥水性シートの1枚を、その長手方向に沿って二つ折りして、相対向する層間をホットメルト型接着剤又は部分的な熱シール若しくは超音波シール等で接合した2層構造のシートを用いている。前述した弾性部材57及び防漏カフ中間弾性部材58は、この2層構造シートの層間に伸長状態で固定されている。 On both sides of the absorbent body 5, a pair of leakage-proof cuffs 55 and 55 are formed in the diaper 1 in the unfolded and extended state of the diaper 1 shown in FIG. Each leak-proof cuff 55 is a leak-proof cuff forming sheet 56 joined to the absorbent body 5, and an elastic member for leak-proof cuff forming fixed in an extended state near the free end of the leak-proof cuff forming sheet 56. 57, and a leak-proof cuff intermediate elastic member 58 fixed in an extended state between the fixed end and the free end of each leak-proof cuff 55 are provided. In the example shown in FIG. 4, as the leak-proof cuff forming sheet 56, one strip-shaped water-repellent sheet having a predetermined width is folded in half along the longitudinal direction thereof, and the opposing layers are hot-melt adhesive.

更におむつ1では、股下領域Cの中央部において、背側レッグ弾性部材81bと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角αが、30度以上90度以下である。角度αについて詳述すると、股下領域Cの中央部において、おむつ1では、図3(a)に示すように、背側レッグ弾性部材81bと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角度αは30度以上であり、好ましくは50度以上、より好ましくは60度以上である。また該角度αは90度以下である。具体的に該角度αは30度以上90度以下であり、好ましくは50度以上90度以下、より好ましくは60度以上90度以下である。尚、背側レッグ弾性部材81bと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角度αは、鈍角ではなく鋭角の方の角度を意味する。 Further, in the diaper 1, in the central portion of the inseam region C, the angle α formed by the dorsal leg elastic member 81b and the side edges 46 and 46 of the absorber 4 along the vertical direction X is 30 degrees or more and 90 degrees or less. .. To elaborate on the angle α, in the central portion of the inseam region C, in the diaper 1, as shown in FIG. 3A, both side edges 46, 46 of the dorsal leg elastic member 81b and the absorber 4 along the vertical direction X The angle α formed with each of them is 30 degrees or more, preferably 50 degrees or more, and more preferably 60 degrees or more. The angle α is 90 degrees or less. Specifically, the angle α is 30 degrees or more and 90 degrees or less, preferably 50 degrees or more and 90 degrees or less, and more preferably 60 degrees or more and 90 degrees or less. The angle α formed by the dorsal leg elastic member 81b and the side edges 46 and 46 of the absorber 4 along the vertical direction X means an acute angle rather than an obtuse angle.

背側レッグ弾性部材81bと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角αは、例えば、背側レッグ弾性部材81bを複数有する場合は、少なくとも1本の背側レッグ弾性部材81bと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角αが上記範囲内にあればよく、複数の背側レッグ弾性部材81bのそれぞれが全て吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角αが上記範囲内にあることが好ましい。 The angle α formed by the dorsal leg elastic member 81b and the side edges 46, 46 of the absorber 4 along the vertical direction X is, for example, at least one dorsal leg when having a plurality of dorsal leg elastic members 81b. It is sufficient that the angle α formed by the elastic member 81b and both side edges 46 and 46 along the vertical direction X of the absorber 4 is within the above range, and each of the plurality of dorsal leg elastic members 81b is vertical of the absorber 4. It is preferable that the angle α formed by each of the side edges 46 and 46 along the direction X is within the above range.

股下領域Cの中央部において、背側レッグ弾性部材81bと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角αを30度以上90度以下とすることで、背側レッグ弾性部材81bによる吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う方向に作用する収縮力が低減され、吸収体4の横方向Yに皴が発生することが抑制される。
例えば、背側レッグ弾性部材81bと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角をαとすると、吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46が背側レッグ弾性部材81bの収縮力により縦方向Xに作用する応力はcosαで表せる。cosαの値は、角度αが90度に近づくほど小さくなるので、背側レッグ弾性部材81bと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角αを30度以上90度以下とすることで、股下領域Cに配された吸収体4上に皺を発生し難くすると共に、一対のレッグ開口部8,8における良好なフィット性を維持することができる。
In the central portion of the inseam region C, the angle α formed by the elastic member 81b of the dorsal leg and the both side edges 46 and 46 along the vertical direction X of the absorber 4 is set to 30 degrees or more and 90 degrees or less so that the dorsal leg is formed. The contraction force of the elastic member 81b acting in the direction along the vertical direction X of the absorber 4 is reduced, and the occurrence of wrinkles in the lateral direction Y of the absorber 4 is suppressed.
For example, assuming that the angle formed by the dorsal leg elastic member 81b and the side edges 46, 46 of the absorber 4 along the vertical direction X is α, the side edges 46, 46 of the absorber 4 along the vertical direction X are the dorsal sides. The stress acting in the vertical direction X due to the contraction force of the leg elastic member 81b can be expressed by cosα. Since the value of cosα decreases as the angle α approaches 90 degrees, the angle α formed by the dorsal leg elastic member 81b and the side edges 46 and 46 along the vertical direction X of the absorber 4 is 30 degrees or more and 90 degrees. By doing so, it is possible to prevent wrinkles from being generated on the absorber 4 arranged in the inseam region C, and to maintain good fit in the pair of leg openings 8 and 8.

また、おむつ1では、図2に示すおむつの展開且つ伸長状態において、外装体10の股下領域Cは、腹側レッグ弾性部材81aと背側レッグ弾性部材81bとが交差している部分どうしの間に、該腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び該背側レッグ弾性部材81bが収縮力を発現する状態で配されていない部分を有している。
おむつ1では、腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bは、股下領域Cにおける縦方向Xの中央部の吸収性本体5と重なる部分においては、一対の側部非積繊部44,44から横方向Yの外方では伸長状態で外装体10に固着されている。そして、腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bは、該一対の側部非積繊部44,44どうしの間では収縮力が発現する状態では配されていない。
腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bの収縮力を発現させないようにするには、例えば、腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bを熱により硬化させることもできるが、おむつ1では、腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bを個々複数個に分断することで収縮力を発現しないようにしている。即ち、腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bは、おむつ1では、一対の側部非積繊部44,44どうしの間で分断され、横方向Yに分割された状態となっている。
腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bを一対の側部非積繊部44,44から横方向Yの外方では伸長状態で外装体10に固着させ、一対の側部非積繊部44,44どうしの間では収縮力が発現する状態で配さないことで、吸収性コア40(下部吸収層412)の縦方向Xに沿った両側部の良好な起立性が得られる。
Further, in the diaper 1, in the unfolded and extended state of the diaper shown in FIG. 2, the inseam region C of the exterior body 10 is between the portions where the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b intersect. In addition, the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b have a portion that is not arranged in a state of exhibiting a contraction force.
In the diaper 1, the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b overlap with the absorbent body 5 in the central portion of the vertical direction X in the inseam region C, where the pair of side non-stacking portions 44, From 44 to the outside in the lateral direction Y, it is fixed to the exterior body 10 in an extended state. The ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b are not arranged in a state where a contraction force is exhibited between the pair of side non-stacked fiber portions 44, 44.
In order to prevent the contraction force of the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b from being exhibited, for example, the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b can be cured by heat. In the diaper 1, the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b are individually divided into a plurality of pieces so as not to exhibit a contraction force. That is, in the diaper 1, the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b are divided between the pair of side non-stacked fiber portions 44, 44, and are divided in the lateral direction Y. There is.
The ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b are fixed to the exterior body 10 in an extended state in the lateral direction Y from the pair of side non-stacked fibers 44, 44, and the pair of side non-stacked fibers By not arranging the portions 44 and 44 in a state in which a contractile force is exhibited, good uprightness of both portions along the vertical direction X of the absorbent core 40 (lower absorbing layer 412) can be obtained.

またおむつ1では、股下領域Cの中央部において、腹側レッグ弾性部材81aと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角βが、40度以上90度以下である。角度βについて詳述すると、股下領域Cの中央部において、おむつ1では、図3(b)に示すように、腹側レッグ弾性部材81aと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角度βは40度以上であることが好ましく、より好ましくは50度以上、さらに好ましくは60度以上である。また該角度βは90度以下であることが好ましい。具体的に該角度βは40度以上90度以下であることが好ましく、より好ましくは50度以上90度以下、さらに好ましくは60度以上90度以下である。尚、腹側レッグ弾性部材81aと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角度βは、鈍角ではなく鋭角の方の角度を意味する。 Further, in the diaper 1, in the central portion of the inseam region C, the angle β formed by the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the side edges 46 and 46 of the absorber 4 along the vertical direction X is 40 degrees or more and 90 degrees or less. .. To elaborate on the angle β, in the central portion of the inseam region C, in the diaper 1, as shown in FIG. 3B, both side edges 46, 46 of the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the absorber 4 along the vertical direction X The angle β formed with each of them is preferably 40 degrees or more, more preferably 50 degrees or more, and further preferably 60 degrees or more. The angle β is preferably 90 degrees or less. Specifically, the angle β is preferably 40 degrees or more and 90 degrees or less, more preferably 50 degrees or more and 90 degrees or less, and further preferably 60 degrees or more and 90 degrees or less. The angle β formed by the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the side edges 46 and 46 of the absorber 4 along the vertical direction X means an acute angle rather than an obtuse angle.

腹側レッグ弾性部材81aと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角度βとしては、例えば、腹側レッグ弾性部材81aを複数有する場合は、少なくとも1本の腹側レッグ弾性部材81aと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角βが上記範囲内にあればよく、複数の腹側レッグ弾性部材81aのそれぞれが全て吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角βが上記範囲内にあることが好ましい。 The angle β formed by the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the side edges 46 and 46 of the absorber 4 along the longitudinal direction X is, for example, at least one ventral side when a plurality of ventral leg elastic members 81a are provided. It is sufficient that the angle β formed by the leg elastic member 81a and the side edges 46, 46 along the vertical direction X of the absorber 4 is within the above range, and each of the plurality of ventral leg elastic members 81a is all of the absorber 4. It is preferable that the angle β formed by each of the side edges 46 and 46 along the vertical direction X is within the above range.

股下領域Cの中央部において、腹側レッグ弾性部材81aと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角βを40度以上90度以下とすることで、腹側レッグ弾性部材81aによる吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う方向に作用する収縮力が低減され、吸収体4の横方向Yに皴が発生することが抑制される。
例えば、腹側レッグ弾性部材81aと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角をβとすると、吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46が腹側レッグ弾性部材81aの収縮力により縦方向Xに作用する応力はcosβで表せる。cosβの値は、角度βが90度に近づくほど小さくなるので、腹側レッグ弾性部材81aと吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁46,46それぞれとのなす角βを40度以上90度以下とすることで、股下領域Cに配された吸収体4上に皺を発生し難くすると共に、一対のレッグ開口部8,8における良好なフィット性を維持することができる。
In the central portion of the inseam region C, the angle β formed by the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the side edges 46 and 46 of the absorber 4 along the vertical direction X is set to 40 degrees or more and 90 degrees or less so that the ventral leg is formed. The contraction force of the elastic member 81a acting in the direction along the vertical direction X of the absorber 4 is reduced, and the occurrence of wrinkles in the lateral direction Y of the absorber 4 is suppressed.
For example, assuming that the angle formed by the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the side edges 46, 46 of the absorber 4 along the vertical direction X is β, the side edges 46, 46 of the absorber 4 along the vertical direction X are ventral. The stress acting on the leg elastic member 81a in the vertical direction X due to the contraction force can be expressed by cosβ. Since the value of cos β becomes smaller as the angle β approaches 90 degrees, the angle β formed by the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the side edges 46 and 46 along the vertical direction X of the absorber 4 is 40 degrees or more and 90 degrees. By doing so, it is possible to prevent wrinkles from being generated on the absorber 4 arranged in the inseam region C, and to maintain good fit in the pair of leg openings 8 and 8.

またおむつ1では、腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bは、その太さが310dtex以上620dtex以下である。腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bは、おむつ1では、その太さが dtexである。腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bの太さとしては、フィット性能の観点から好ましくは310dtex以上、より好ましくは470dtex以上、縦方向Xへの収縮力をより低減させ横方向に延びる皺が発生するのを防ぐ観点から好ましくは620dtex以下、好ましくは310dtex以上620dtex以下、より好ましくは470dtex以上620dtex以下である。腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bの太さを310dtex以上620dtex以下とすることで、フィット性能と皺低減効果の両立が可能となる。 Further, in the diaper 1, the thickness of the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b is 310 dtex or more and 620 dtex or less. The thickness of the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b is dtex in the diaper 1. From the viewpoint of fit performance, the thickness of the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b is preferably 310 dtex or more, more preferably 470 dtex or more, further reducing the contraction force in the vertical direction X and extending in the lateral direction. From the viewpoint of preventing the occurrence of wrinkles, it is preferably 620 dtex or less, preferably 310 dtex or more and 620 dtex or less, and more preferably 470 dtex or more and 620 dtex or less. By setting the thickness of the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b to 310 dtex or more and 620 dtex or less, it is possible to achieve both fit performance and wrinkle reduction effect.

またおむつ1では、図2に示すおむつ1の展開且つ伸長状態において、腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bは、交差している部分から横方向Yの内方に、下部吸収層412の各側部非積繊部44と重なる位置まで延出している。腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bは、各側部非積繊部44の横方向Yの全域に亘って各側部非積繊部44と重なる外装体10の部分に配されることが好ましいが、各側部非積繊部44の横方向Yの一部に重なる外装体10の部分に配されていればよい。例えば、各側部非積繊部44の横方向Yの長さの半分以上が各側部非積繊部44と重なる外装体10の部分に配されていればよい。
腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bが股下領域Cの中央部において、各側部非積繊部44と重なる部分まで横方向Yに配されることで、一対の側部非積繊部44,44を折り曲げ起点として低坪量部42,42が起立することで、良好な横漏れ防止性が得られると共にフィット性が向上する。
例えば、腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bを複数有する場合は、少なくとも1本の腹側レッグ弾性部材81a又は背側レッグ弾性部材81bと各側部非積繊部44と重なる外装体10の部分に配されていればよく、複数の腹側レッグ弾性部材81a及び背側レッグ弾性部材81bのそれぞれが全て各側部非積繊部44と重なる外装体10の部分に配されていることが好ましい。
Further, in the diaper 1, in the expanded and extended state of the diaper 1 shown in FIG. 2, the ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b are formed in the lower absorption layer in the lateral direction Y from the intersecting portion. It extends to a position where it overlaps with each side non-stacked fiber portion 44 of 412. The ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b are arranged on a portion of the exterior body 10 that overlaps with each side non-stacked fiber portion 44 over the entire lateral direction Y of each side non-stacked fiber portion 44. However, it may be arranged on the portion of the exterior body 10 that overlaps a part of the lateral Y of each side non-stacked fiber portion 44. For example, more than half of the length of each side non-stacked fiber portion 44 in the lateral direction Y may be arranged on the portion of the exterior body 10 that overlaps with each side portion non-stacked fiber portion 44.
The ventral leg elastic member 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b are arranged in the lateral direction Y up to a portion overlapping each side non-stacking portion 44 in the central portion of the inseam region C, whereby a pair of side non-stacking members are arranged. By having the low basis weight portions 42, 42 stand up with the fiber portions 44, 44 as the bending starting point, good lateral leakage prevention can be obtained and the fit can be improved.
For example, when a plurality of ventral leg elastic members 81a and dorsal leg elastic members 81b are provided, the exterior overlaps with at least one ventral leg elastic member 81a or dorsal leg elastic member 81b and each side non-folding fiber portion 44. It suffices to be arranged on the portion of the body 10, and each of the plurality of ventral leg elastic members 81a and the dorsal leg elastic member 81b is arranged on the portion of the exterior body 10 that overlaps with each side non-folding fiber portion 44.
