Abstract

Method and apparatus for manufacturing a hygiene paper product includes: providing a continuous paper web, moving the continuous web in the direction of its longitudinal extension, applying a repetitive creative structure relative to the longitudinal extension of the web as a first pattern to the web with a first roll, applying a repetitive functional structure relative to the longitudinal extension of the web as a second pattern to the web with a second roll, while enabling the first pattern to be in register with the second pattern by concurrently controlling the repetitive surface speed of continuous web and the phasing between the first roll and the second roll.

Claims (19)

1. Hygiene paper product having the form of a continuous web comprising a first pattern having a decorative structure and/or a second pattern having a functional structure relative to the longitudinal extension of the web, wherein the decorative and/or functional structure are positioned in a repetitive and adjusted position along the longitudinal extension of the web, wherein the web comprises a plurality of sheets detachably formed by repetitive perforations transverse to the longitudinal extension of the web, the perforations being phased with respect to the first pattern and/or the second pattern such as to have the same repetitive spatial relationship relative to the first and/or second pattern along the entire longitudinal extension of the continuous web.

2. Hygiene paper product according to claim 1 , wherein the first pattern and the second pattern are phased with respect to each other such that they have the same repetitive spatial relationship relative to each other along the entire longitudinal extension of the continuous web.

3. Hygiene paper product according to claim 1 , wherein the first pattern and the second pattern do not overlap.

4. Hygiene paper product according to claim 3 , wherein the first pattern is surrounded by the second pattern.

5. Hygiene paper product according to claim 3 , wherein the second pattern is surrounded by the first pattern.

6. Hygiene paper product according to claim 1 , wherein the perforations do not intersect the first pattern and/or the second pattern.

7. Hygiene paper product according to claim 1 , wherein the first pattern is a printed pattern and the second pattern is an embossed pattern.

8. Hygiene paper product, comprising:

a continuous web;

a first pattern having a decorative structure; and

a second pattern having a functional structure relative to a longitudinal extension of the web,

wherein the decorative structure and the functional structure are positioned in a repetitive and adjusted position along the longitudinal extension of the web,

wherein the web comprises a plurality of sheets detachably formed by repetitive perforations transverse to the longitudinal extension of the web, the perforations being phased with respect to the first pattern and the second pattern such as to have the same repetitive spatial relationship relative to the first and second pattern along the entire longitudinal extension of the continuous web.

9. Hygiene paper product according to claim 8 , wherein the first pattern and the second pattern are phased with respect to each other such that they have the same repetitive spatial relationship relative to each other along the entire longitudinal extension of the continuous web.

10. Hygiene paper product according to claim 8 , wherein the first pattern and the second pattern do not overlap.

11. Hygiene paper product according to claim 10 , wherein the first pattern is surrounded by the second pattern.

12. Hygiene paper product according to claim 10 , wherein the second pattern is surrounded by the first pattern.

13. Hygiene paper product according to claim 8 , wherein the perforations do not intersect the first pattern or the second pattern.

14. Hygiene paper product according to claim 8 , wherein the first pattern is a printed pattern and the second pattern is an embossed pattern.
