An absorbent article, such as a diaper, an incontinence guard or like article, comprising a front and a rear end-part (1, 2), an intermediate crotch-part (3) which is intended to be located between the thighs of the wearer in use, an absorbent pad (6), flexible side-flaps (21, 22) which extend laterally beyond the absorbent pad (6) on both sides of the same, at least within the crotch-part (3), longitudinally extending elastic elements (19) which are disposed along the free side-edge (21a, 22a) of the side-flaps (21, 22), the elastic elements (19) functioning as leg elastication when the article is worn, and transverse elastic elements (20) which are mounted, in a stretched state, at least in the crotch-part (3) inwardly of an article casing layer (4) on that side of the absorbent pad which is intended to face the wearer in use. The invention is characterized in that the article includes, at least in the crotch-part, barrier flaps (23, 24) which extend along the absorbent pad and which are separate from the side-flaps (21, 22); and in that the transverse elastic elements (20) extend transversely across the absorbent pad and are arranged so that the spring force exerted by the elastic elements (20) will essentially only act on the absorbent pad and the barrier flaps (23, 24) upon the transition from their stretched to their contracted state. |
