Publication number: 20210290448Abstract: A tampon product including a tampon within an applicator assembly is disclosed. The applicator assembly includes a barrel portion joined to a gripping portion, imparted with features that improve utility and convenience for the user. In one example the gripping portion has a rearward edge defining differing first and second lengths. In another example the gripping portion has a lateral outer cross section profile that is substantially oval-shaped, ovoid-shaped, elliptical or stadium-shaped and has major and minor axes, each perpendicular to a longitudinal axis, along first and second lateral perpendicular directions, wherein following absorption of fluid the tampon will expand laterally to a first lateral dimension to a greatest extent along a first lateral direction, and to a lesser second lateral dimension along a second lateral direction 90 degrees from the first lateral direction, wherein the first lateral direction is substantially parallel to one of the major and minor axes.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 20, 2020Publication date: September 23, 2021Inventors: Ayub Ibrahim KHAN, Naomi Ruth NELSON, Eric Mitchell SCHICKLI, Kerry Lloyd WEAVER

Patent number: 8768653Abstract: Included are systems and methods for modeling compliant parts. Some of the systems and/or methods include creating a 3-dimensional simulation of a product that includes an outer part and an inner part, determining a deformation characteristic of the product, and simulating an interaction of the inner part with the outer part. Similarly, in some of the systems and/or methods a characteristic of interaction may be measured from the interaction, a determination may be made regarding whether the characteristic of interaction meets a predetermined threshold. In some of the systems and/or methods, in response to determining that the characteristic of interaction meets the predetermined threshold, an output may be sent indicating product design acceptability. In response to determining that the characteristic of interaction does not meet the predetermined threshold, the 3-dimensional simulation may be iteratively altered until the characteristic of interaction meets the predetermined threshold.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2011Date of Patent: July 1, 2014Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Rakesh Gummalla, Richard Shane Mays, Mel Allende-Blanco, James William Busch, Eva Grace Nellenbach, Matthew Howard Wasson, Kerry Lloyd Weaver, Ayub Ibrahim Khan
