Process for Making an Absorbent Article Having Inflected Barrier Leg Cuff

摘要

A process for making a wearable, absorbent article is described wherein two longitudinally extending barrier leg cuffs are attached to a chassis and the barrier leg cuffs are joined to the article so that they are directed inwardly toward a longitudinally extending centerline in the first waist region of the article and directed outwardly away from the longitudinally extending centerline in the second waist region of the article. The method describes the cuffs as being first attached in the first waist region and then in the second waist region in one embodiment and, in another embodiment, being attached in the second waist region first and then in the first waist region of the article. A process is also described for making a wearable, absorbent article wherein the barrier leg cuffs are attached to the article outboard of the longitudinally extending centerline in both the first waist and second waist regions of the article and wherein the barrier leg cuffs are joined partially to the article in the crotch region.
