ABSORBENT ARTICLE WITH REUSABLE BELT AND METHODS FOR MANUFACTURING THEREOF
20220401272 · 2022-12-22 ·

A method for forming a wearable absorbent article may comprise forming, by a system, an absorbent chassis comprising an absorbent core, a first lateral end, a second lateral end, and a length in a longitudinal direction extending between the first lateral end and the second lateral end. The method may further comprise forming, by the system, a reusable belt, and attaching, by the system, the belt to the absorbent chassis via at least one temporary fastener component formed on at least one of the absorbent chassis or the belt, resulting in formation of a wearable absorbent article unit.

ABSORBENT ARTICLE WITH REUSABLE BELT AND METHODS FOR MANUFACTURING THEREOF

An absorbent article comprises an absorbent chassis and a belt. The absorbent chassis comprises an absorbent core, a first lateral end, a second lateral end, and a length in a longitudinal direction extending between the first lateral end and the second lateral end. The belt comprises a continuous ring of at least one material configured for wear around a waist of a wearer that is operatively engageable with the first lateral end and the second lateral end, wherein at least a portion of the continuous ring is expandable, wherein the absorbent chassis is disposable, and the belt is reusable with and re-attachable to one or more additional absorbent chassis.

ABSORBENT ARTICLES INCLUDING A WAIST PANEL WITH A FRANGIBLE BOND

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to absorbent articles with waist panels including frangible bonds, wherein a waist panel may be connected with a chassis and positioned in a front or back waist region. A first region of the waist panel is bonded with the chassis and extends laterally adjacent an outboard lateral edge of the waist panel, and at least a portion of an inboard lateral edge of the waist panel is unattached to the chassis so as to form a pocket during use. The waist panel is also releasably bonded with the chassis with a frangible bond positioned on the inboard lateral edge of the waist panel and/or longitudinally between the inboard lateral edge of the waist panel and the first region. The frangible bond may be an adhesive and/or mechanical bond and may be configured to break during production or during normal use of the absorbent article.

PANT-TYPE ABSORBENT ARTICLE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF

Disclosed is a pant type absorbent article having a back elastic belt comprising a waist guard portion extending towards the crotch region from a closed base line towards an open edge, wherein the waist guard portion is formed by a first inner waist fold extending from a second inner waist fold, the second inner waist fold extending from the inner sheet, and a first elastic member bonded between the first inner waist fold and the second inner waist fold, wherein the waist guard portion is partially bonded to the remainder of the elastic belt from which the first and second inner waist folds extend to define a pocket.

Methods of making laminates for absorbent articles

A method of making a laminate for an absorbent article is provided. The laminate comprises elastic elements disposed at least partially intermediate two substrates. The first substrate has a primary fiber bond pattern formed therein and comprising a plurality of primary fiber bonds. The method comprises forming densified regions in the first substrate. A perimeter of each of the densified regions is larger than a perimeter of each of the primary fiber bonds. The densified regions together form a pattern of densified regions in the first substrate. The method comprises adhesively attaching the elastic elements to the first substrate, joining the second substrate to the first substrate or to some of the elastic elements, and forming a plurality of rugosities in the first substrate by allowing the elastic elements to at least partially contract. The frequency and amplitude ranges of the rugosities result from the pattern of the densified regions.
