Patent number: 10011953Abstract: Absorbent members, especially bulked absorbent members, and methods of making the same are disclosed. The absorbent member may be in the form of a unitary absorbent fibrous layer comprising at least some cellulose fibers. The unitary absorbent fibrous layer is at least partially stratified through its thickness. The absorbent member may also have a plurality of discrete deformations, such as depressions and/or apertures in its surfaces. The method involves subjecting a precursor web to at least one cycle (or pass) through a mechanical deformation process. The mechanical deformation process utilizes a first forming member and a second forming member that form a nip therebetween through which the precursor web is passed. The first and second forming members are moving at different speeds relative to each other when they come together to form the nip.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2012Date of Patent: July 3, 2018Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: John Joseph Curro, Jill Marlene Orr, Keith Robert Priessman, John Brian Strube

Patent number: 9534325Abstract: Absorbent members and methods of making the same are disclosed. In one embodiment, the absorbent member is a unitary absorbent fibrous web having a density profile through its thickness. In one embodiment, the density profile of the fibrous web is skewed toward one of the surfaces of the fibrous web. In such embodiments, the maximum density of the web may be located outside of the central 30% zone of the thickness of the web. In one embodiment, the method involves subjecting a precursor web to at least one cycle (or pass) through a mechanical deformation process. Typically, the method involves subjecting the precursor web to multiples cycles (or passes) through a mechanical deformation process.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2011Date of Patent: January 3, 2017Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Jill Marlene Orr, Luigi Marinelli, John Brian Strube, Keith Robert Priessman, Carmine Cimini, Mario Dipilla

Patent number: 9452094Abstract: Absorbent members and methods of making the same are disclosed. In one embodiment, the absorbent member is a unitary absorbent fibrous web having a density profile through its thickness. In such an embodiment, the density profile may be relatively centered through the thickness of the web and the maximum density of the web is located between about 35% and about 65% of the distance through the thickness of the web.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2012Date of Patent: September 27, 2016Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Luigi Marinelli, Kirk Wallace Lake, Jill Marlene Orr, Paul Thomas Weisman, Carmine Cimini, Mario Dipilla, Keith Robert Priessman
