An absorbent article may be constructed by printing graphics on webs used to form discrete components that are joined together at seams to form the absorbent article.

The present technology relates to an absorbent product for attachment to an article of clothing The absorbent product comprises a wearer-facing surface and a garment-facing surface opposite the wearer-facing surface. The absorbent product comprises a main body, wherein the main body comprises: a central absorbent core; an external envelop placed around the central core and having a front extremity and a rear extremity; a first attachment line located at the front extremity of the external envelop; and a second attachment line located at the rear extremity of the external envelop; wherein the first attachment line and the second attachment line are for attachment of the absorbent product to the article of clothing; and wherein the absorbent product is free of means for adhesively attaching the garment-facing surface to the article of clothing.

An absorbent article may be constructed by printing on a web that forms a portion of the side panels using a first printing method; and by printing on a backsheet using a second printing method. Seams may be formed by attaching the side panels to a chassis and by attaching the side panels to each other to form a waist opening and leg openings.

Leak-proof seamless underwear having a fabric-made leak-protection pad. An underwear for a female wearer includes: a rear-side fabric-region that is configured to cover at least some of buttocks of the female wearer; a front-side fabric-region that is generally opposite said rear-side fabric-region and that is configured to cover at least some of a pelvis of the female wearer; and a gusset (or crotch-covering) fabric-region that is configured to cover genitalia and/or crotch of the female wearer. A body-facing or inner side of the gusset fabric-region includes a fabric-based Passepartout frame element which holds in place therein a fabric-based leak-protection pad that absorbs fluids and prevents fluid leaks.

A textured laminate structure and absorbent articles having a component formed of the textured laminate structure are disclosed. The textured laminate structure may have a first layer formed of a nonwoven web having a preexisting pattern of first apertures therethrough, a second layer, and one or more elastic members disposed between the first and second layers in a prestrained condition. The laminate structure may be discontinuously joined or bonded such that the first layer is joined or bonded to the structure in first portions and unjoined or unbonded to the structure in second portions. The structure provides a stretch laminate with tactilely and visually interesting features, and may be used to form components of a disposable absorbent article such as a side panel thereof.

A disposable absorbent undergarment assembly includes briefs that include a front panel and a rear panel attached along lateral edges and a bottom edge to form a waist opening and a pair of leg openings. Each of the lateral edges has a break therein extending through each of the waist opening an adjacent one of the leg openings. Closures are used for selectively opening or closing each break. An absorbent area is defined in a central area of the front and rear panels. An elastic band forms a continuous loop that is free of any breaks. The elastic band has an upper edge and a lower edge. A first mating member is attached to the lower edge and a second mating member is attached to the briefs adjacent to the waist opening. The first and second mating members releasably attach the elastic band to the briefs.

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.
