Stretchable laminate sheet and disposable worn article
A stretchable laminate sheet including a thermoplastic stretchable film laminated on a non-woven fabric containing thermoplastic fiber therein, wherein: the non-woven fabric and the stretchable film are welded together at a plurality of first and second welding portions; the first welding portions are longer in a first direction and are shorter in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction; and the second welding portions are longer in a third direction crossing the first direction and are shorter in a fourth direction perpendicular to the third direction.
1. A disposable worn article including a stretchable laminate sheet, the disposable worn article including:
a girth portion formed from the stretchable laminate sheet, extending in a girth direction of a wearer, and configured to cover a torso of the wearer, the girth portion including a lower edge portion, an upper edge portion, and a middle portion between the lower edge portion and the upper edge portion; and
an absorbent body configured to cover a crotch of the wearer;
wherein:
the stretchable laminate sheet includes a thermoplastic stretchable film laminated on a non-woven fabric containing thermoplastic fiber therein;
the non-woven fabric and the stretchable film are welded together at a plurality of first welding portions and a plurality of second welding portions;
the first welding portions each have a longer first length in a first direction, and each have a first width, shorter than the first length, in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction;
the second welding portions each have a longer second length in a third direction crossing the first direction, and each have a second width, shorter than the second length, in a fourth direction perpendicular to the third direction;
the first welding portions are provided in the lower edge portion and the middle portion of the girth portion;
the second welding portions are provided in the upper edge portion of the girth portion;
the first welding portions are arranged intermittently in the girth direction and arranged intermittently in a vertical direction perpendicular to the girth direction;
the second welding portions are arranged intermittently in the girth direction and arranged intermittently in the vertical direction;
a length of each of the first welding portions in the vertical direction perpendicular to the girth direction is longer than a length thereof in the girth direction; and
a length of each of the second welding portions in the girth direction is longer than a length thereof in the vertical direction.
2. The disposable worn article according to claim 1 , wherein:
the girth portion includes an overlap portion where the absorbent body is laid on the girth portion;
the non-woven fabric and the stretchable film are welded together at a plurality of third welding portions in the overlap portion;
the third welding portions each have a longer third length in the vertical direction, which is the first direction, and have a third width, shorter than the third length, in the girth direction, which is the second direction; and
the third length of the third welding portions is longer than the first length of the first welding portions.
3. The disposable worn article according to claim 2 , wherein the third width of the third welding portions is smaller than the first width of the first welding portions.
4. The disposable worn article according to claim 2 , wherein a ratio of the third length of the third welding portions with respect to the third width thereof is greater than a ratio of the first length of the first welding portions with respect to the first width thereof.
5. The disposable worn article according to claim 1 , wherein:
the girth portion includes an overlap portion where the absorbent body is laid on the girth portion;
the non-woven fabric and the stretchable film are welded together at a plurality of third welding portions in the overlap portion;
a fourth region is arranged between a first region where the first welding portions are provided and a third region where the third welding portions are provided, and the non-woven fabric and the stretchable film are welded together at a plurality of fourth welding portions in the fourth region; and
a ratio of a total area of the fourth welding portions with respect to an area of the fourth region is greater than a ratio of a total area of the first welding portions with respect to an area of the first region and is less than a ratio of a total area of the third welding portions with respect to an area of the third region.
