ABSORBENT GARMENT TAB HAVING ZONES OF DIFFERENT ELASTICITY

摘要

A fastener tab (32) for securing absorbent garments (10) is provided. The fastener tab (32) has a first elastic region (302) that extends laterally outward from a waist region (24) of the garment (10), a second elastic regio n (306) that extends laterally outward from the first elastic region (302), an d a grip (310) that is attached to an outboard portion of the second elastic region (306). The second elastic region (306) has a greater stretch resistan ce than the first elastic region (302). In another embodiment of the invention, the fastener tab (32) has a substantially inelastic region (314) interposed between the first elastic region (302) and the second elastic region (306).< /SDOAB>
