A durable absorbent pant is disclosed. The pant includes a crotch portion with a crotch gusset including an absorbent assembly. The crotch gusset may be configured to exhibit a maximum Longitudinal Elongation of 25 percent to 100 percent and a Longitudinal Tensile Modulus of 10 gf/mm to 100 gf/mm. The described stretch characteristics provide a pant with improved body conformity for improved containment of fluids (such as urine) discharged by the wearer.

The present invention is directed to a substrate, in particular textile material to which one or more antimicrobial and/or hydrophilic and/or stain release agents are adhered. The agent(s) is/are adhered to the substrate in such a manner that they are not released from the textile even if the textile is wetted or washed, so that the textile is reusable. Washability and/or usability of the textile are improved where one or more hydrophilic and/or stain release agents are adhered to the textile. The substrate can be used, e.g., in a reusable sanitary napkin or other hygiene product. The structure of the hygiene product is disclosed, together with a process of attaching the different layers of the hygiene product together by ultrasonic welding. The invention further relates to a method of finishing a substrate by applying and binding antimicrobial and/or hydrophilic and/or stain release agents to the substrate so that the agents are essentially irreversibly adhered to the finished substrate.

The physiological pants of the present invention comprise: a clothing layer, a waterproof layer, a water storage layer and a water-permeable layer; the clothing layer constructs a clothing; the waterproof layer is a surrounding wall to enclose the water storage space; the water-permeable layer and the water storage layer are arranged in the water storage space; wherein, the water-permeable layer includes a first layer body and a second layer body. The first layer body is formed with a plurality of first water-permeable holes, and the second layer body is formed with a plurality of second water-permeable holes smaller than the first water-permeable hole, so that a plurality of tapered holes are collectively formed inside the water-permeable layer by the first water-permeable hole and the second water-permeable hole, so as to prevent the liquid in the water storage layer from easily passing through the water-permeable layer when the water storage layer is squeezed.

The undergarment with an integral sanitary liner is an article of loin wear. A patient wears the undergarment with an integral sanitary liner when the patient anticipates liquid discharge in the loin region. The undergarment with an integral sanitary liner is an absorbent structure that absorbs liquid discharges in the loin region. The undergarment with an integral sanitary liner comprises an anterior panel, a posterior panel, an inferior panel, an elastic webbing, a liner, and a plurality of seams. The plurality of seams interconnect the anterior panel, the posterior panel, the inferior panel, and the elastic webbing to form the article of loin wear. The inferior panel forms the absorbent structure of the undergarment with an integral sanitary liner of the article of loin wear. The liner is a sheeting that protects the patient from the liquids in the inferior panel.

A reusable diaper assembly includes a diaper that may be worn on a child. A first mating member is coupled to the diaper and a second mating member is coupled to the diaper. A first fastener is coupled to the diaper and the first mating member is matable to the first fastener to retain the diaper on the child. A second fastener is coupled to the diaper and the second mating member is matable to the second fastener to retain the diaper on the child. An absorbing unit is removably coupled to the diaper. The absorbing unit is comprised of a fluid absorbent material to absorb waste from the child. Moreover, the absorbing unit is selectively removed from the diaper to be disposed of when the absorbing unit becomes soaked with the waste. In this way the diaper may be re-used.

Garments and associated methods are disclosed. In examples, a garment includes an absorbent assembly bonded to a body portion. In examples, the absorbent assembly includes an absorbent layer and overlies at least a central region of the body portion. In examples, the absorbent assembly is at least partially bonded to the body portion with elastic bonding film. In examples, the garment is configured to be washed and re-worn numerous times. In examples, a method of manufacturing a garment includes arranging an absorbent assembly over at least the central region of the body portion and bonding the absorbent assembly to the body portion with strips of elastic bonding film and without stitching. In examples, a moisture-absorbent garment includes a body layer supporting an absorbent assembly within a central region and strips of elastic bonding film that bond at least a portion of the absorbent assembly to the body layer without stitching.

A reusable shield and liner for use by a woman during menstruation is disclosed. The liner has a predetermined shape and comprises two or more layers. The predetermined shape can be an octagon, a circle, or an oral. The shield contains one water-resistant layer.

A sanitary underwear with a detachably attachable organic pad is illustrated. The underwear comprises a side fastener having one piece adjustable organic pad extending from the front center belly button and passing through the center of the middle crotch area up to the back center to the waistband. The underwear with the organic pad is enabled to absorb leaks, perspiration, menstrual fluids, urinary, and rectum discharges. The underwear promotes fair wages and trade. The organic pad is made of organic cotton, hemp, bamboo, organic terry cloth, jute and any combination thereof. The underwear provides a plurality of benefits including a reduced risk of carcinogens caused by harmful pesticides and chemicals, promotion of sustainable environment, eco-friendliness, enhancement of social responsibility, restricted use of dyes releasing carcinogens, reduced risk of falls and injuries during donning and doffing of the undergarment.

There is provided an anti-irritant diaper having an absorbent material constructed with a shape defined by a front area, a middle area, a rear area, a pair of leg cuffs and closing tabs. A resilient, flexible band is removably disposed longitudinally and centrally along the absorbent material. A pocket is formed within the middle area for receiving excreted solid waste, so that the pocket forms a space above it separating the pocket from the wearer's skin, the flexible band maintains the structure of the pocket. There is also provided a removable one-directional flexible partition having a pair of dividers situated above the pocket, each of the dividers being attached at one end to one of the pair of leg cuffs, each divider being segmented into a plurality of flaps. The flexible band maintains the structure of the pocket, such that the partition allows for solid waste to enter therethrough and into the pocket and prevents the waste from returning and then contacting the skin, thereby preventing irritation to the skin.

Disclosed is a liquid removal drypad and liquid removal system suitable for absorbing and removing liquid produced by an individual. The drypad can include one or more perforated conduits arranged with an absorbent material. A source of reduced pressure can be connected to the one or more perforated conduits to remove liquid from the drypad. The drypad can be positioned under a patient and liquid produced by the individual can be removed by applying reduced pressure to the drypad. The drypad can be made by combining one or more conduits with an absorbent material.
