An absorbent article can have an improved attachment to a wearer's undergarment and can maintain proper placement in the undergarment of the wearer. The absorbent article can produce less waste for the wearer of the absorbent article. The absorbent article can have a topsheet layer, a backsheet layer, an absorbent core positioned between the topsheet layer and the backsheet layer, and a pair of opposing wings. The absorbent article can have a mechanical garment attachment which can maintain the placement of the absorbent article within the wearer's undergarment.

The present disclosure generally relates to an absorbent pad for use in a garment. The absorbent pad includes: a liquid impermeable barrier layer; a functional layer attached to the barrier layer, the functional layer comprising a liquid absorbent component; a liquid impermeable peripheral sealing element bonded to peripheries of the functional layer and barrier layer; and a peripheral attaching element having a first portion and a second portion, the first portion bonded to the peripheral sealing element. The second portion of the peripheral attaching element is detached from the peripheral sealing element and is arranged to be attached to a fabric body of the garment, thereby attaching the absorbent pad to the garment.

A disposable sanitary napkin includes a main body and a pair of bridged flaps. The main body includes an absorbent system, a topsheet, and a backsheet, and it has a pair of side edges extending along the length thereof. The bridged flaps include a first straight edge, a second, shape-cut edge defining a projecting portion, and a bridging segment of a release liner having at least one zone of adhesive configured for attachment to the projecting portion of each bridged flap. Each bridged flap is attached to the main body with the first, substantially straight edge of each shaped strip aligned with a corresponding side edge of the main body, the bridged flaps are disposed over the topsheet, and each side flap is releasable from the bridging segment of the release liner.

According to the present invention, a leak-proof compressed part, which comprises indentations formed by indenting an absorber and which is for preventing leakage from an edge of the absorber by changing the direction of body fluid spreading from a region H corresponding to a body fluid discharge part, is formed outside the region H in a prescribed pattern. The leak-proof compressed part is provided with: a fluid guide section that is for guiding, toward a center line L extending from the proximal side toward the distal side of the region H, the body fluid spreading outward from region H, and that has portions that are disposed on both sides of the center line L so that the distance therebetween across the center line L becomes lesser from the proximal side toward the distal side of the region H; a fluid collecting section which is disposed on the center line L farther beyond the fluid guide section on the distal side of the region H and which is for collecting the body fluid guided by the fluid guide section; and a fluid spreading section which extends from the fluid collecting section to both sides of the center line L and which is for spreading the collected body fluid toward both sides of the center line L.

A diaper has a wearer-facing side and an outward-facing side, a longitudinal axis and a lateral axis, and a chassis. The diaper includes a primary fastening system having a primary first component fastenably engageable with a primary second component, wherein the primary first component is disposed on the wearer-facing side of the rear waist region and the primary second component disposed on the outward-facing side of the front waist region. The diaper also includes a combination belt structure disposed in the front waist region, the combination belt structure comprising the primary second component and a front ear extending from one of the left and right longitudinal edges when the diaper is in an unfolded configuration.

A disposable urine trap in the form of a foldable pad that envelops the male genitalia and closes around the organ to form a barrier that prevents urine from escaping the trap. The pad includes an asymmetric pair of wings that are separated by a gap and attached to the main body of the pad. The first wing is preferably trapezoidal and a second wing having an extending distal edge.

An absorbent article having a main body having a liquid-permeable topsheet, a liquid-impermeable backsheet and an absorbent core sandwiched between the topsheet and the backsheet is disclosed. The main body has longitudinal and transversal axes. The article has two wings extending asymmetrically outward from a crotch portion of the main body with respect to the longitudinal axis. The wings each have a means for fastening them to a garment when folded over the main body towards the longitudinal axis. The fastening means for each wing are offset from each other in the longitudinal direction. A method for manufacturing the absorbent article is also disclosed.

An absorbent pad includes a body, having a first edge, and a first tab projecting from the first edge wherein the first tab and the first edge outline a first aperture.

A sanitary pad system includes a first pad and a second pad. The first pad has a first set of fastening tabs and the second pad has a second set of fastening tabs. The two sets of fastening tabs are offset so that, when the two pads are stacked in overlapping relationship on an undergarment, both pads are directly attached to the undergarment with the associated fastening tabs.

A system of pantiliners and menstrual pads that can be used to alleviate undesirable conditions associated with dysmenorrhea or other physiological conditions is provided. The pantiliners of the invention include a top layer of composite material, a ventilation layer, and a bottom layer of breathable material. The menstrual pads of the invention include a top layer of composite material, an air-laid layer, a layer of super adsorbent polymer inside the air-laid layer, a ventilation layer, and a bottom layer of breathable material. The present system of pantiliners and menstrual pads is helpful in providing a decrease of pain and other unwanted symptoms during a menstrual cycle. In another advantage, the right placement guide and the left placement guide are provided to assist in placing the menstrual pads of the invention accurately in relation to the undergarment of the user.
