An incontinence article () in the form of briefs has a front stomach portion () and a rear back portion (), which are connected to one another at lateral seam regions () on both sides. A crotch portion () has an absorption pad () and extends in a longitudinal direction (). A topsheet material () or a topsheet () and a backsheet material () form a transverse overhang () extending outside longitudinal borders () of the absorption pad (). The overhang () has a reinforcing means () in a region () bridging the respective longitudinal border () of the absorption pad (). The reinforcing means () comprises or consists of a reinforcing coating (and is disposed on the inner face () of the topsheet material ().

Incontinence article in the form of briefs

An absorbent incontinence article () has a main part () composed of a front area () and of a rear area () and, lying between these in the longitudinal direction (), a crotch area () that comes to lie between the legs of a user, the main part () comprising an absorption body (), and with mutually separate side portions () which are joined to the rear area () and/or to the front area () on both sides and which extend in the transverse direction () across lateral longitudinal edges () of the main part () and connect the front area () and the rear area () to each other when the article is applied. To prevent tearing of the side portions, it is proposed that the incontinence article be designed such that the side portions () have a reinforcing means () which, seen in the transverse direction (), is designed narrower than a respective side portion (), and which is provided at least in an area bridging the longitudinal edge () of the main part (), that is to say crosses both a lateral longitudinal edge area of the main part () and also a part of the side portion () in the transverse direction ().

Absorbent incontinence article

The disclosure relates to a disposable absorbent hygiene item in the form of a pair of knickers, said item comprising a central absorption part, an outer envelope forming a base structure comprising a waist edge which is closed all the way round in the peripheral direction and forms an opening for the waist, a rear part and a front part comprising longitudinal lateral edge sections, and a connecting region arranged between the front part and the rear part and forming the leg openings.

Pants-type disposable sanitary article with improved fit

Method of producing an incontinence pad having a main part and front and rear side parts attached thereto, characterized in that the rear side parts can be expanded to a greater extent than the front side parts.

Method of producing a multiplicity of incontinence pads having main part and front and rear side parts attached thereto

An absorbent single-use article includes an absorbent element for storing bodily fluids and a backsheet that is fluid impermeable, at least in sections. The fluid impermeable backsheet has a microporous breathable film. A moisture indicator is provided on the side of the film facing the absorbent element in the form of a visual perceptible textured arrangement applied directly to the film, wherein the textured arrangement detaches itself beyond recognition upon contact with aqueous fluid.

Absorbent single use article

A continuous method for producing incontinence articles in the form of pants for receiving body excrements utilizes crotch sections comprising absorbent bodies and having leg cut-outs formed by a first contour cut. Two partial webs are joined to the crotch sections in such a fashion that one end of the crotch sections overlaps one partial web in a longitudinal direction transversely to the machine direction, and the other end thereof overlaps the other partial web, and the crotch sections are disposed at a separation from each other in the machine direction. A second contour cut is performed that includes the partial webs on their mutually facing edge sections for forming substantially curved leg cut-outs. The article is then folded and the partial webs are joined transversely to the machine direction at a separation from each other for forming side seam areas of the incontinence article to be produced.

A disposable article, comprises a chassis having a first waist region, a second waist region, and a crotch region extending in a longitudinal direction of said chassis between said first and said second waist regions. Transversely opposite side edges of said first and said second waist regions are bonded together to define a waist opening and two leg openings and a peripheral edge of each of said leg openings comprises a front portion and a rear portion, each of which has a first elasticized section which is located toward a respective front or rear waist region and along which said peripheral edge is elasticized about a respective said leg opening, a second non-elasticized section which is located toward said crotch region and along which said peripheral edge is not elasticized circumferentially about a respective said leg opening, and a third elasticized section which is located, in a longitudinal direction, between said second non-elasticized sections of said front and rear portions of each said leg opening and along which said crotch region is elasticized in a transverse direction of the article. The wearing comfort of the absorbent hygiene article is thereby improved and skin irritation is reduced.

Pants-type disposable absorbent hygiene article

An incontinence article comprising front and back belly sections connected at side seams forming belly and back bands, continuous in the hip direction having a hip opening closed in the hip direction, and a crotch section comprising an absorbent body, extending longitudinally between and permanently attached to the bolly and back sections, wherein the crotch, belly, and back sections define leg openings, the belly and back sections have an edge contour extending towards a transverse center axis, wherein first elastification means in the belly and back sections extend parallel to each other in the hip direction and wherein, in the belly and back sections, second elastification means extend from two side seam areas towards a longitudinal center axis of the article in a curved shape, thereby fanning out with increasing separation from each other, where the second elastification means fan out, the restoring force from extensive stretching of this area is smaller than that from extensive stretching of an area on the hip side, having only the first elastification means.
