The crotch portion has an absorbent composite, and a pocket adapted for receiving a removable absorbent pad. The body portion has a waist opening and is seamless except where attached to the crotch portion. The body portion and the crotch portion together form first and second leg openings.
Sanitary product system
This invention is directed to a sanitary product attachment means comprising a connection member (3) having a flexible base carrier (4), whereas on one main surface of the connection member (3) an underwear connection means (5) is present which is configured to fix the connection member (3) to a piece of underwear (12) and on the opposing main surface of the connection member (3) an absorbent member connection means (6) is present which is configured to fix the connection member (3) to the underside of an absorbent member (2, 2a).
Multiple-layer undergarment for toilet training
A multiple-layer undergarment to aid toilet training that provides a child with a sensation of wetness, but protects the child's outer garments from being saturated. The undergarment has an inner fabric layer that retains wetness to produce the uncomfortable sensation for the child after urinating in the undergarment. The undergarment has an absorbent layer sandwiched between two fabric layers that absorbs the excess wetness, the absorbent layer selectively having a barrier layer preventing urine from soaking through to the child's outer garments. In one embodiment, the undergarment has a channel extending from a front waistband, through a crotch to a back waistband for inserting an absorbent panel. In another embodiment, the undergarment has an absorbent insert attached by a plurality of adhesive strips between two fabric underwear. In one embodiment, the undergarment has a channel for inserting an absorbent panel attached by at least one adhesive strip.
SACRUM-PROTECTING DIAPER
Disclosed is a sacrum-protecting diaper consisting of a diaper specially designed to protect the sacral area of patients with urinary incontinence who must remain in bed for prolonged periods of time.
DIAPER ARTICLE WITH MULTIPLE ABSORBENT BODIES HAVING LEG CUFFS

Flushable Removable Diaper Liner
The flushable removable diaper liner of the present invention is an easy-to-use diaper liner that can be removed from an existing diaper and flushed to enable a solid waste disposal device and method. The present invention makes it easy to dispose of solid waste in a flushing toilet, thus preventing solid waste entry into the landfill waste stream. Further, this invention reduces carbon emissions by preventing the solid waste from going to landfills. The device and method of the present invention can be in the form of an addition to an existing diaper and can be built/manufactured into an existing diaper by adding it to an existing manufacturing process.
Insertion Aid Apparatus for Diaper Inserts
A diaper insert insertion aid apparatus is disclosed, designed to streamline and simplify the process of inserting absorbent inserts into cloth diaper covers. The apparatus comprises a main body configured to hold multiple reusable cloth diaper inserts, a fastening mechanism to secure the inserts in place, and resilient pads for stability. In one embodiment, the main body further includes a handle for ease of manipulation. The apparatus can accommodate inserts with or without pockets, and the pocketed inserts can be further supported by a dedicated structure within the apparatus. This invention aims to address the inconvenience and physical strain associated with traditional manual insertion methods, making cloth diapering more accessible and appealing to a wider range of users, including those with limited dexterity or handling multiple diapers. The apparatus is adaptable to various insert configurations and can also find possible applications in other textile manufacturing processes.
