发明名称 Absorbent article having a fastening system adapted to enhance gasketing
摘要 An absorbent article has a pair of leg cuffs adapted to fit about the legs of a wearer and a pair of containment flaps adapted to provide a barrier to the lateral flow of body exudates. Each containment flaps includes a seam bonding the respective containment flap to the article and at least one elastic member spaced from the seam. A fastening system includes a primary fastening system and a secondary fastening system. The secondary fastening system comprises a pair of secondary first fastening components and a pair of secondary second fastening components. Each of the secondary first fastening components is laterally located relative to one of the containment flaps such that an outboard-most longitudinal edge of the secondary first fastening component is spaced laterally inward from the seam and an inboard-most longitudinal edge of the secondary first fastening component is spaced laterally outward from the elastic member.

主权项 1. An absorbent article having a longitudinal direction, a lateral direction, an inner surface, an outer surface, a front portion, a back portion, a crotch portion extending longitudinally between and connecting the front portion and the back portion, the absorbent article comprising: a bodyside liner at least in part defining the inner surface of the article; an outer cover at least in part defining the outer surface of the article; an absorbent core disposed between the bodyside liner and the outer cover; a pair of containment flaps extending in the longitudinal direction and adapted to provide a barrier to the lateral flow of body exudates, each of the containment flaps comprising a seam bonding the respective containment flap to the bodyside liner and at least one elastic member spaced from the seam; a fastening system configured to attach the back portion to the front portion to define a wear configuration of the absorbent article, the fastening system comprising a primary fastening system and a secondary fastening system separate from the primary fastening system, the secondary fastening system comprising a pair of secondary first fastening components and a pair of secondary second fastening components, each of the secondary first fastening components being disposed on the front portion and configured to engage one of the secondary second fastening components disposed on the back portion when the absorbent article is in the wear configuration, each of the secondary first fastening components being laterally located relative to one of the containment flaps such that an outboard-most longitudinal edge of the secondary first fastening component is spaced entirely laterally inward from the seam and an inboard-most longitudinal edge of the secondary first fastening component is spaced laterally outward from the elastic member.
