  • Publication number: 20240099904
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a disposable hygiene article having a transverse direction, a longitudinal direction and a longitudinal centerline, the article having front, crotch and a rear portions, and including a liquid-permeable topsheet, a liquid-impermeable backsheet, and an absorbent core arranged between the topsheet and backsheet, the topsheet and backsheet extending beyond the absorbent core to provide an outer boundary region of the article that surrounds the absorbent core, the core extending between a core front edge and a core rear edge, the core including a neck region being smaller than a transverse width of the core forward of the neck region, and a transverse width rearward of the neck region, the article further including at least one asymmetrical wing wherein the asymmetrical wing outer edge meets the outer periphery of the disposable hygiene article, the outer edge of the at least one asymmetrical wing.

  • Patent number: 11395773
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a disposable hygiene article comprising first and second pairs of compression lines in a rear portion of the article. The article has a core with a first region which has its narrowest width (M) in the transverse direction (x) in a front portion or at a location of a transition between the front portion and a crotch portion of the article. The absorbent core in the rear portion comprises the first (L1, R1) and second (L2, R2) pairs of rear compression lines, which extend in a longitudinal direction (y) between respective front and rear endpoints. A longitudinal distance (G1) between the front and rear end points of the first pair of compression lines is less than a longitudinal distance (G2) between the front and rear endpoints of the second pair of compression lines.

  • Patent number: 11395771
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a disposable hygiene article comprising a pair of curved compression lines in a rear portion of the article. The article has a core with a first region which has its narrowest width (M) in the transverse direction (x) in a front portion or at a location of a transition between the front portion and a crotch portion of the article. The absorbent core in the rear portion comprises the first (L1, R1) and second (L2, R2) pairs of rear compression lines, which extend in a longitudinal direction (y) between respective front and rear endpoints. A transverse distance (G3min) separates the rear endpoints of the pair of compression lines whilst a second, larger distance (G3max) separates the front endpoints of the compression lines.

  • Patent number: 11253403
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a disposable hygiene article comprising first and second compression lines in a forward region of the article. The article has a core with a first area which has its narrowest width (M) in the transverse direction (x) in a front portion or at a location of a transition between the front portion and a crotch portion of the article. The absorbent core in the crotch portion comprises the first and second compression lines, which are separated from each other at their closest point by a minimum distance D1, measured in the transverse direction.

  • Patent number: 11141323
    Abstract: A disposable hygiene article having an absorbent core with a first region which has its narrowest width (M) in the transverse direction (x) in a front portion or at a location of a transition between the front portion and a crotch portion of the article. The absorbent core comprises a high-density first region and a low density second region. The absorbent core in the crotch region has first and second rear compression lines. The compression lines mutually diverge in a direction towards the core front edge. Each line has a diverging angle (?2; ?3) of from 15-60° with respect to a centre line (A). The second region has an average density which is at least 20% lower than the average density of the first region.
