PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make distribution of layers of an absorbing body with a simple constitution. SOLUTION: A device 10 for manufacturing an absorbing body 1 comprises: a forming member 20 having a predetermined surface 20a in which a recessed forming mold 21 is formed and moving the forming mold in one direction along a movement route intersecting the width direction of the predetermined surface; a supply duct 31 supplying gas 3 containing liquid absorptive fibers 2 toward the predetermined surface 20a from a supply opening 31a; a negative-pressure-chamber defining member 25 defining a negative pressure chamber S in cooperation with the predetermined surface 20a; and a gas discharge duct 41. When the forming mold 21 passes the position of the supply opening 31a, the gas 3 in the supply duct 31 is caused to be sucked into the negative pressure chamber S from a suction hole 22 to layer the liquid absorptive fibers 2 in the forming mold 21, thereby forming the absorbing body 1. The negative-pressure-chamber defining member 25 is provided with a pair of wall sections 25. The negative pressure chamber S is defined between the pair of wall sections. The gas discharge duct 41 is connected to either of the pair of wall sections 25, and a gas discharge opening section 42 of the gas discharge duct is provided so as to project to the inside of the negative pressure chamber S from the wall section 25.
