This invention relates to a disposable sanitary napkin having longitudinal curved edges and transverse ends having at least one compression line extending a long and close to the longitudinal edges, such that the pressure of the user's thighs on the product will bring about a protuberance of absorbent material towards the perineal area when worn. The product of this invention thus bring the absorbent material closer to the discharge of menstrual fluid in the absorbent middle which is the critical cause of leakage from the longitudinal edges of sanitary napkins.

An absorbent article includes a body and a hip holding portion. The body has a shape having a predetermined length in a front-rear direction and a predetermined width in a direction perpendicular to the front-rear direction. The hip holding portion includes a side region protruding from a rear side portion of the body and a rear region protruding from the rear end of the body, and includes a first protruding portion including a portion where the width of the body from a centerline in the front-rear direction is largest, a first depressed portion forward of and adjacent to the first protruding portion, and a second protruding portion forward of and adjacent to the first depressed portion in the side region. The width of the second protruding portion from the centerline is smaller than or equal to the smallest width of the first depressed portion from the centerline.

An absorbent article has longitudinal edges, front and rear end regions, and a central region between the end regions, and an absorbent core disposed between a topsheet and a backsheet. A pair of central side flaps extend laterally outward from longitudinal edges of the absorbent core in the central region, and a pair of rear side flaps extend laterally outward from longitudinal edges of the absorbent core in the rear end region. A support layer disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet in the rear end region extends from one of the rear side flaps to the other outboard of the longitudinal edges of the absorbent core but inboard of the longitudinal edges of the article. The support layer is absent in the central side flaps. A channel with a plurality of first areas and second areas alternately spaced along at least a portion of a length of the channel is present.

A feminine hygiene pad with a large petal protrusion at an aft end of the pad. The feminine pad is used to prevent leakage from seeping around the buttocks region, especially while seated or in a supine position. The invention improves over existing pads due to the large petal shape for coverage on the buttocks portion and on the material used for absorbency.

This invention is an absorbent article and more particularly to an improved absorbent device that is worn in body clefts, in particular interlabially by female wearers for catamenial purposes, incontinence protection, or both and in the anal crease for light faecal incontinence or in the context of haemorrhoids, or underarm sweat-pads.

An absorbent article includes: a main body (8) including a liquid permeable top sheet (3), a liquid impermeable back sheet (2), and an absorbent body (4) interposed between the top sheet and the back sheet; and a hip-holding portion (H), wherein the main body has a shape having a predetermined length in a front-back direction and a predetermined width in a direction orthogonal to the front-back direction, and wherein the hip-holding portion includes a side region protruding from a side of a rear portion of the main body, the side region including a first projection (41) that includes a portion having a largest width from a center line in the front-back direction of the main body, a first recess (51) that is located adjacent to and forward of the first projection, and a second projection (52) that is located adjacent to and forward of the first recess, and wherein the back sheet in the side region has a slip preventive portion for securing the absorbent article, the slip preventive portion being disposed so as to straddle, in the front-back direction, a virtual line that is drawn in the width direction from a bottom point of the first recess.

An absorbent article for menstrual and/or incontinence purposes, having a unique two-layer acquisition and absorbent structure. The cover layer includes a nonwoven material. The absorbent core includes multiple strata including super absorbent, fiber material that is pulp and/or bicomponent fibers, and a binder material. The total thickness of the absorbent article is less than or equal to the thickness of absorbent articles of similar absorbent characteristics. The absorbent article includes various absorbent properties that are improved despite parity or reduction in overall thickness.

An individually wrapped absorbent article includes an absorbent article and a wrapping sheet, wherein the absorbent article includes a middle area that includes a portion corresponding to a body-fluid-excretion-orifice of a wearer upon wearing the absorbent article, and a rear area behind the middle area extends to a rear end of the absorbent article, and the absorbent article includes hip-hold flaps projecting laterally from the main body in the rear area, and an outline the hip-hold flaps has convex portions with curvature radius of 5 to 500 mm, wherein anti-slipping portions are disposed on a back surface of the hip-hold flaps, and the hip-hold flaps are folded with a top-sheet side inward along lengthwise-direction-folding-lines extending substantially in the lengthwise-direction, and the rear area is folded with the top-sheet side inward along a widthwise-direction-folding-line extending substantially in the widthwise-direction through the anti-slipping portions and apexes of the convex portions.

This invention relates to a disposable sanitary napkin having longitudinal curved edges and transverse ends having at least one compression line extending a long and close to the longitudinal edges, such that the pressure of the user's thighs on the product will bring about a protuberance of absorbent material towards the perineal area when worn. The product of this invention thus bring the absorbent material closer to the discharge of menstral fluid in the absorbent middle which is the critical cause of leakage from the longitudinal edges of sanitary napkins.

The embodiments disclose an apparatus including a child sanitary napkin including a disposable child sanitary napkin underwear, wherein the child sanitary napkin includes a waterproof non porous outer layer, an adhered superabsorbent polymer layer, an odor absorbing activated charcoal pad layer with a soft cotton covering layer, an imprinted product barcode and an embedded RFID chip for tracking the child via a digital device cellular connection, wherein the child sanitary napkin includes a shape contoured to a female anatomical groin area, wherein the child sanitary napkin includes flared front and rear terminus areas to increase an adhesive bonding area, wherein the child sanitary napkin includes sizes conforming to children's clothing and age sizes, and age appropriate decorative images including stickers to apply to the child sanitary napkin outer surface.
