主权项

1. An article for being worn on a lower torso of a wearer, said article comprising:
a basis formed of a liquid impervious back sheet and an absorbent core, said basis having a front region, a rear region and a crotch region there between, thereby defining a longitudinal (x-) and width (y-) direction, a longitudinal centre line and two opposite longitudinally extending side margins having an outer edge, said basis exhibiting a first surface defined on the absorbent core and intended to be oriented towards a wearer during use; and a second surface defined on the back sheet and intended to be oriented away from the wearer during use; and a flexible faeces separation member attached to said first surface of said basis, whereby the attachment is adapted to allow spacing apart of said flexible faeces separation member from said first surface of said basis at least along a portion of said longitudinal centre line, wherein; said longitudinal side margins of said basis are overfolded such that its first surface overlays said flexible faeces separation member at least in the crotch region; and said first surface of said overfolded longitudinal side margins is connected to said flexible faeces separation member by a pick-up connection, which; (i) is located at a distance of less than 2.5 centimeters from the outer edge of the overfolded longitudinal side margins, and (ii) is positioned longitudinally at least in the crotch region of the article, wherein said flexible faeces separation member is a faeces trap sheet that overlies said first surface at least in the crotch region and forms a faeces trap between said faeces trap sheet and said first surface; said flexible faeces separation member remains essentially unattached to said absorbent core in the proximity of the pick-up connection; and said faeces trap further comprising a faeces passage delimited at least partially by a discontinuity of said faeces trap sheet, said passage being adapted to allow faeces to be deposited between said faeces trap sheet and said first surface, and said passage being positioned along or intersecting said longitudinal centre line.
