Patent number: 8029634Abstract: A method of manufacturing an absorbent article in the form of a pants-type diaper or a sanitary panty starts from a flat blank which includes an elongated absorbent body (5) enclosed between two casing sheets (2, 9) which at opposing front and rear end parts of the absorbent body have side parts which extend laterally beyond the body on opposite sides thereof. The method includes the step of folding the blank about a transverse axis so that the end edges of the side parts lie edge-to-edge. The front and rear side parts of the blank which oppose one another in the folded state of the blank are joined together by a releasable and refastenable fastener (20).Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2009Date of Patent: October 4, 2011Assignee: SCA Hygiene Products AktiebolagInventors: Urband Widlund, Anders Gustafsson

Publication number: 20100321399Abstract: Existing map solutions using tiled maps with geographic data in vector format typically has such a volume of data that not all geographic data can be stored in memory. A primary bottleneck for map rendering speed in such solutions is the time needed to load all data necessary for replacing one rendered map with the next rendered map. Utilizing the structure and methods of the invention herein when loading geographic vector data, the average time to load all necessary geographic data needed for one rendered map to the next will be greatly reduced—the loading time reduction will be especially large when pan and zoom operations are the main transitions from one rendered map to the next.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 18, 2009Publication date: December 23, 2010Inventors: Patrik Ellren, Anders Gustafsson

Publication number: 20100075120Abstract: A hydroentangled nonwoven material (8), includes a mixture of randomized continuous filaments (3) and natural fibres (5), wherein at least part of the staple fibres and/or the continuous filaments includes thermoplastic material. The nonwoven material is bonded in a non-random bonding pattern including a plurality of bonding sites (14) in which thermoplastic material included in the nonwoven material has been caused to at least partly soften or melt to create thermal bonds between the continuous filaments. The nonwoven material includes no other thermal bonds between the filaments than provided by the non-random bonding pattern. The nonwoven material may also contain synthetic staple fibers (6).Type: ApplicationFiled: November 29, 2006Publication date: March 25, 2010Applicant: SCA HYGIENE PRODUCTS ABInventors: Anders Gustafsson, Lars Fingal, Mikael Strandqvist, Kaveh Tondkar
