INCONTINENCE ARTICLE IN PANT FORM

摘要

In an incontinence article in pant form, a crotch section having an absorption body, is connected to stomach and back sections in respective overlapping regions of the crotch section and the stomach section, and the crotch section and the back section, wherein the incontinence article has a first fold axis formed by a transverse center axis of the incontinence article, second fold axes extending outside on either side of the absorption body, and a third fold axis in a region of the absorption body, wherein regions of the stomach section and the back section which laterally protrude over the crotch section are folded about the second fold axes toward the longitudinal center axis, wherein after folding the incontinence article about the third folding axis, the border of the stomach and back band does not protrude over the first fold axis wherein a mass per area of the absorption body decreases from a region of the transverse center axis toward stomach-section side and back-section side ends of the absorption body.

主权项

1. An incontinence article in pant form for absorbing bodily excretions, comprising:
a stomach section; a back section, spaced apart from the stomach section in a longitudinal direction of the incontinence article along a longitudinal center axis, said stomach section and back section having respective lateral seam regions and being joined at the respective lateral seam regions thereby forming a stomach- and back band which is continuous in a transverse direction of the incontinence article, and has a circumferentially closed waist opening; a crotch section having an absorption body and extending in the longitudinal direction between the stomach section and the back section, said crotch section overlapping with the stomach section and the back section in respective overlapping regions and being non-detachably connected to the stomach section and to the back section in the respective overlapping regions, said stomach section, back section and crotch section together delimiting leg openings of the incontinence article, said stomach and back section having respective crotch-side regions facing the leg openings; first elastifying means extending in spaced apart and parallel relationship to one another in the transverse direction in the stomach section and back section, thereby two-dimensionally elastifying the stomach section and the back section; and second elastifying means extending in the respective crotch-side regions of the stomach and back sections, in particular from the respective lateral seam regions towards the longitudinal center axis into the respective overlapping regions of the crotch section and back section and of the crotch section and stomach section, wherein the article is brought into folded configuration by the manufacturer, said incontinence article having a first fold axis formed by a transverse center axis of the incontinence article, second fold axes respectively provided outside the absorption body on either side of the absorption body and extending in the longitudinal direction, and a third fold axis provided in a region of the absorption body, wherein regions of the stomach section and the back section which laterally protrude over the crotch section are folded about the second fold axes in the direction toward the longitudinal center axis, wherein after folding the incontinence article about the third folding axis, the border of the stomach and back band does not protrude over the first fold axis, i.e. not over an outer folding edge of the incontinence article formed by the first fold axis, wherein a mass per area of the absorption body decreases from a first mass per area in a region of the transverse center axis, respectively toward a stomach-section side end of the absorption body and toward a back-section side end of the absorption body, and wherein the third fold axis is arranged at a distance to the transverse center axis where the absorption body has a mass per area that is at most 80% of the first mass per area.
