  • Patent number: 5599337
    Abstract: A feature of this invention is the raised longitudinal hydrophobic edges or edge members in combination with the raised central member. Since the raised central member captures the body fluids close to the source of fluid discharge it contains the body fluids in the central portion of the napkin. In addition, the raised hydrophobic longitudinal edges or edge members prevent fluid from wicking through to the undergarment of the user.

  • Patent number: 4900320
    Abstract: An improved sanitary napkin is provided which protects the user's undergarment from wetting. The napkin is provided with two flaps each affixed to the garment facing side of the napkin and each extending in a direction tranverse to the longitudinal edge of the napkin and adapted to encircle the crotch portion of the undergarment. The flaps are affixed to the garment facing side of the napkin at an affixation point inward from the longitudinal edge of the napkin so that when encircling the crotch portion, the edges of the crotch portion of the undergarment are gathered under the napkin and the napkin acts as a shield to prevent wetting.
