Absorberande artikel, såsom en blöja eller ett inkontinensskydd

摘要

An absorbent article includes a front part, a rear part and an intermediate crotch part and also an absorbent body enclosed between the outer liquid-impermeable casing sheet and an inner liquid-permeable casing sheet, and longitudinal flaps located on respective sides of the longitudinal symmetry axis of the article and that extend transversely in towards the axis, and further including longitudinal elastic elements which extend along those edges of the flaps that face toward the longitudinal symmetry axis. The absorbent body is divided into a central part and two side parts at least in the crotch part by folding indications which are located on respective sides of the longitudinal symmetry axis in front and rear sections and which diverge relative to one another up to the side edges of the absorbent body. The side flaps are joined to the outer casing sheet along its longitudinal edges; and each of the side flaps extends from a point in the crotch part on the inside of the article inwardly toward the longitudinal symmetry axis (AA) while decreasing in distance from the axis towards the front part and the rear part respectively up to a point in respective front and rear parts.
