摘要 |
The present invention relates to an absorbent article (1) such as a pair of absorbent pants, a nappy, an incontinence protection article or the like having a substantially elongated shape and presenting a frontal waist region (2), a rear waist region (3) and a crutch region (4) positioned therebetween having two leg edge-portions (5, 6). The article comprises an inner fluid-permeable layer (7), a fluid-barrier layer (8) and an absorbent core (9) enclosed therebetween. The article also comprises elastic elements (10) which are arranged along four different paths (11, 12, 13, 14). One segment of each path follows at least a portion of a leg edge-portion (5, 6) and the paths together enclose a collection region (15) positioned between the article's leg edge-portions (5, 6), which region (15), under the influence of the elastic elements (10), bulges and forms a fluid-collecting basin.
