Abstract
A disposable diaper having a facing sheet defining a diaper inside surface for direction toward an infant and a backing sheet defining a diaper outside surface is provided with adhesive tabs having a free end and a digitated fixed end which includes at least two integral anchoring legs. Each leg is provided with an adhesive coating on one face thereof. At least one of the legs is folded over on a bias so that a portion of the adhesive-coated face thereof is juxtaposed to an adjacent portion of the same adhesive-coated face. The fixed end is permanently attached by means of the adhesive coatings to the diaper facing and backing sheets, at least one leg being attached to the facing sheet and the remaining legs being attached to the backing sheet. The free end of the tab has an adhesive coating on one face thereof, is releasably attached to a release region, and is separable from the release region to make the adhesive-coated free end of the tab available for use in securing the diaper about an infant.
