Abstract
A disposable diaper having a facing sheet defining a diaper inside surface and a backing sheet defining a diaper outside surface is provided with adhesive tabs comprising a backing web, a first tape segment and a second tape segment. The backing web is folded over to form a pair of anchoring legs which are permanently attached to a marginal portion of the diaper received therebetween. First and second tape segments each have a fixed end attached to the same anchoring leg, and a free end which is folded about the edge of the diaper and releasably attached to an underlying release means. The free end of the first tape segment is separable from a first release means carried on the free end of the second tape segment to make the first tape segment available for use in securing the diaper about an infant. The first tape segment can be severed to remove the diaper from the infant, and the free end of the second tape segment can be separated from a second release means carried on the other anchoring leg to refasten the diaper about an infant.
