Abstract:
An absorbent article, such as a diaper, pant diaper, incontinence guard, sanitary napkin, wound dressing and the like, comprising a layer of continuous fibres, so-called tow, which have been bonded together in points, lines or spots in a bonding pattern (10), but otherwise are substantially unbonded to each other, and which layer comprises at least two zones (5a-e), as seen in the cross-sectional direction of the layer, which zones are different with respect to one or several properties such as basis weight, density, pore size, hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity and/or other absorption properties and/or properties affecting skin condition. Said layer can either be used as a liquid acquisition layer (5) in the article underneath a topsheet (2), as a topsheet (12), or as a combined topsheet and liquid acquisition layer (22).
Abstract:
A pack module includes a number of absorbent articles and at least one belt to which the absorbent articles can be releasably attached. The belt when placed in the pack module constitutes a gripping device which is intended to act on at least one of the articles and, at least partially, remove at least one absorbent article from the pack module when the gripping device is used. Removal of firmly compressed absorbent articles from a pack module without using additional material in the pack module is thus possible.
Abstract:
Packaging unit (17) for absorbent articles (1), comprising a number of folded absorbent articles (1) arranged with their folded edges (41) placed head to tail in the packaging unit (17), the folded edges (41) arranged at one side (18) of the packaging unit (17) being situated at different distances from said side (18), and the folded edges (41) arranged at the opposite side (20) of the packaging unit being situated at different distances from said opposite side (20).
Abstract:
Unidad de envasado (17) que comprende al menos un lado (18), cuya unidad de envasado (17) comprende un número de artículos absorbentes (1), estando cada artículo absorbente (1) doblado al menos una vez a lo largo de una línea de doblado sustancialmente transversal (41), teniendo cada artículo (1) al menos un área de doblado (11), disponiéndose las líneas de doblado (41) de los artículos (1) paralelas al lado (18) de la unidad de envasado (17), y orientándose las áreas de doblado (11) de los artículos (1) hacia el lado (18) de la unidad de envasado (17), caracterizada porque las áreas de doblado (11) de un número de artículos absorbentes (1) se disponen a una distancia desde el lado (18) de la unidad de envasado (17) y porque las áreas de doblado (11) de un número de artículos absorbentes (1) se disponen en contacto directo con el lado (18) de la unidad de envasado (17), estando los artículos (1) dispuestos con sus áreas dobladas (11) a una distancia desde el lado (18) de la unidad de envasado (17) desplazados en una distancia (T) de 5-50 mm, preferiblemente de 5-30 mm, y aún más preferiblemente de 5-15 mm, respecto a los artículos (1) dispuestos con sus áreas de doblado (11) en contacto directo con el lado (18) de la unidad de envasado (17).
Abstract:
Packaging unit (17) for absorbent articles (1) comprising a number of folded articles (1), the folded parts (11) of the articles being arranged towards one of the sides (18) of the packaging unit, but a different distances from said side (18).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a material laminate (1) with a planar dimension and a thickness direction perpendicular to the planar dimension, including a first liquid-permeable fibrous material layer (2) and a second liquid-permeable, porous and resilient material layer (3), with at least one of the material layers (2, 3) including thermoplastic material and the two material layers (2, 3) being mutually connected by the material laminate (1) exhibiting bonding sites (4) within which the thermoplastic material has been caused to at least partially soften or melt and thereby bond together the two material layers (2, 3). The bonding areas are arranged in two or more groups (5) with at least two bonding sites (4) in each group (5), with the greatest relative distance between two bonding sites (4), which are situated adjacent to each other, in a particular group (5) being less than the shortest distance between the group (5) and its closest adjacent group (5), as a result of whi ch the material laminate (1) exhibits bond-free areas (6) between the bonding sites (4) within each bonding group (5) which have a higher density than bond-free areas (9) of the material laminate which are situated between the bonding groups (5).
