Disposable diaper
View Patent ↗A disposable diaper is provided, including an absorber, a top sheet, a back sheet, and a skin contact sheet (SCS) disposed above the top sheet. The skin contact sheet is formed with a stool passing opening and a urine passing opening at a portion corresponding to a crotch part, and includes an SCS central region formed by extending a strip-shaped inter-opening region, which is sandwiched by the two openings and extends in the width direction, by half the length between the openings in the anterior direction and in the posterior direction; an SCS ventral region located at the ventral side from the SCS central region; and an SCS dorsal region located at the dorsal side from the SCS central region. A least the SCS central region has the stretching force in the width direction, and an inter-opening central region sandwiched by the two openings includes a non-stretchable region.
1. A disposable diaper formed by a front body part, a crotch part, and a back body part, the disposable diaper comprising:
an exterior covering member;
an absorber provided on an inner surface of the exterior covering member;
a top sheet disposed to cover an upper surface of the absorber and at least partially formed of a liquid permeable material;
a back sheet disposed to cover a lower surface of the absorber and formed of a liquid impermeable material; and
an SCS, which is a skin contact sheet, disposed above the top sheet and formed so that a portion thereof corresponds to the crotch part, wherein the skin contact sheet has an area that is sufficiently large as so to cover the top sheet, but which is smaller than an overall area of the exterior covering member, and wherein the skin contact sheet has a stool passing opening capable of passing a stool therethrough and a urine passing opening capable of passing the urine therethrough, the skin contact sheet including
an SCS central region formed by extending an inter-opening region, which is a strip-shaped region sandwiched by the stool and urine passing openings and extending in the width direction, by half the length between the stool and urine passing openings in the anterior direction and in the posterior direction,
an SCS ventral region located at the ventral side from the SCS central region, and
an SCS dorsal region located at the dorsal side from the SCS central region,
wherein at least the SCS central region of the skin contact sheet has the stretching force in the width direction, and
wherein an inter-opening central region, which is a region located between the stool and urine passing openings, includes a non-stretchable region, which is present only between the stool and urine passing openings, and which is provided in a planar state, having no stretching force in the width direction and in the longitudinal direction.
2. The disposable diaper according to claim 1 ,
wherein the non-stretchable region is disposed to extend into a strip shape between the stool and urine passing openings at the center in a width direction of the inter-opening central region.
3. The disposable diaper according to claim 1 ,
wherein a length in the width direction of the non-stretchable region is 10 to 100% of a length in the width direction of the inter-opening central region.
4. The disposable diaper according to claim 2 ,
wherein a length in the width direction of the non-stretchable region is 10 to 100% of a length in the width direction of the inter-opening central region.
5. The disposable diaper according to claim 1 ,
wherein opening stretchable members, which are stretchable elastic members, are disposed on a region of the skin contact sheet excluding the non-stretchable region to extend in the longitudinal direction, and
wherein each of the opening stretchable members has a width-direction component at least in the SCS central region.
6. The disposable diaper according to claim 2 ,
wherein opening stretchable members, which are stretchable elastic members, are disposed on a region of the skin contact sheet excluding the non-stretchable region to extend in the longitudinal direction, and
wherein each of the opening stretchable members has a width-direction component at least in the SCS central region.
7. The disposable diaper according to claim 3 ,
wherein opening stretchable members, which are stretchable elastic members, are disposed on a region of the skin contact sheet excluding the non-stretchable region to extend in the longitudinal direction, and
wherein each of the opening stretchable members has a width-direction component at least in the SCS central region.
8. The disposable diaper according to claim 1 ,
wherein the non-stretchable region of the skin contact sheet is in a planar state.
9. The disposable diaper according to claim 2 ,
wherein the non-stretchable region of the skin contact sheet is in a planar state.
10. The disposable diaper according to claim 3 ,
wherein the non-stretchable region of the skin contact sheet is in a planar state.
11. The disposable diaper according to claim 5 ,
wherein the opening stretchable members of the skin contact sheet are formed by disposing the stretchable elastic members so as to cross between the urine passing opening and the stool passing opening and to extend in the longitudinal direction, and thereafter cutting the stretchable elastic members at the crossed section.
12. The disposable diaper according to claim 6 ,
wherein the opening stretchable members of the skin contact sheet are formed by disposing the stretchable elastic members so as to cross between the urine passing opening and the stool passing opening and to extend in the longitudinal direction, and thereafter cutting the stretchable elastic members at the crossed section.
13. The disposable diaper according to claim 7 ,
wherein the opening stretchable members of the skin contact sheet are formed by disposing the stretchable elastic members so as to cross between the urine passing opening and the stool passing opening and to extend in the longitudinal direction, and thereafter cutting the stretchable elastic members at the crossed section.
14. The disposable diaper according to claim 8 ,
wherein the opening stretchable members of the skin contact sheet are formed by disposing the stretchable elastic members so as to cross between the urine passing opening and the stool passing opening and to extend in the longitudinal direction, and thereafter cutting the stretchable elastic members at the crossed section.
15. The disposable diaper according to claim 9 ,
wherein the opening stretchable members of the skin contact sheet are formed by disposing the stretchable elastic members so as to cross between the urine passing opening and the stool passing opening and to extend in the longitudinal direction, and thereafter cutting the stretchable elastic members at the crossed section.
16. The disposable diaper according to claim 10 ,
wherein the opening stretchable members of the skin contact sheet are formed by disposing the stretchable elastic members so as to cross between the urine passing opening and the stool passing opening and to extend in the longitudinal direction, and thereafter cutting the stretchable elastic members at the crossed section.
17. The disposable diaper according to claim 1 , wherein the planar state extends substantially along the entirety of the non-stretchable region.
