Disposable articles, and, more particularly, a disposable undergarment including a product chassis configured to serve as a basis of a variety of disposable articles, including disposable underwear without an absorbent core, disposable underwear with an absorbent core designed for menstrual use, and disposable underwear or training pant with an absorbent core designed for incontinence use (adult and child). The product chassis is comprised of multiple sections including an elastomeric composite, containing stretch film, coupled to one another, each section is designed to provide stretch in a desired direction, thereby resulting in improved securement of the undergarment to a wearer for optimizing fit and comfort for the wearer, while reducing the risk of leakage as well as reducing the amount overall material required for producing the undergarment. Furthermore, the inclusion of an elastomeric composite can provide a smooth contoured fit to a wearer, thereby improving appearance and self-confidence for the wearer.

Multi-purpose disposable underwear

The present invention includes disposable absorbent articles, such as disposable undergarment, diapers, other garments, and wound care dressings, having an elastomeric material disposed between two substrate layers and an absorbent core system that disposed on top of or between the two substrate layers. This invention may also include a disposable article having an elastomeric material disposed between two substrate layers without an absorbent core. The inclusion of an stretch adhesive in the construction of the article in various portions of the article (e.g., fastening tabs, front and/or rear sections, entire article, etc.) results in improved securement of the article to a wearer for reducing the risk of leakage and further improving comfort for the wearer. Furthermore, the inclusion of a stretch adhesive can provide a smooth contoured fit to a wearer, thereby improving appearance and self-confidence for the wearer.

Elastomeric absorbent articles

The present invention is a disposable absorbent undergarment, such as an adult brief or baby diaper, having an exterior surface designed to provide improved attachment for one or more fastener members, thereby resulting in improved closure and securement of the undergarment to a wearer.

Fastening system for absorbent articles

The present invention methods for manufacturing absorbent articles that involve the placement of absorbent cores having variable absorbency levels on consecutively aligned absorbent articles within the same manufacturing line. Additionally, the present invention also includes the provision of single packages of disposable absorbent articles that contain a first absorbent article having a first absorbency level and a second absorbent article having a second absorbency level, wherein the second absorbency level is higher than the first absorbency level.

Inline high-speed manufacturing and printing of absorbent products

The present invention is a multifunctional disposable absorbent article providing numerous features including, in addition to containment and absorption of bodily fluid secretions, improved feel, dryness, and comfort upon a person's skin, odor control and anti-microbial properties, and sufficient strength to support lifting and transferring of a person.
