Abstract: A disposable wearing article adapted to prevent body exudates from leaking sideways beyond leg-opening peripheries and to prevent the wearer's body from being soiled with body exudates. Front and rear waist regions are elastically contractible at least in a transverse direction and a crotch region is provided in laterals with a pair of lateral elastic regions which are elastically contractible in a longitudinal direction.

Abstract: A disposable wearing includes a crotch chassis having a liquid-impervious sheet. The crotch chassis has a main region and opposite lateral portions lying outboard of the main region in the transverse direction and provided with leg elastic elements extending in the longitudinal direction. The opposite lateral portions respectively have fold lines extending in the longitudinal direction, outer side zones lying outboard of the respective fold lines in the transverse direction and inner side zones lying inboard of the respective fold lines in the transverse direction. The outer side zones of the respective lateral portions are folded inward and fixed to the associated inner side zones via associated bond zones extending in the longitudinal direction to form a pair of elastic lateral portions having folded back regions, respectively.

Abstract: A disposable pull-on wearing article includes a waist panel having a skin-facing side and non-skin-facing side and a crotch panel connected to the waist panel. The crotch panel includes a crotch inner sheet lying on the skin-facing side, a crotch outer sheet lying on the non-skin-facing side, a pair of side flaps and a pair of end flaps extending along opposite side edges and opposite end edges of the inner and outer sheets, respectively, and paired sets of leg elastics extending along the opposite side edges in a longitudinal direction. Crossover regions of longitudinally opposite end portions of the side flaps and transversely opposite lateral portions of the end flaps are folded onto the skin-facing side and the crossover regions define nonexistent regions in which none of the elastics exists and the nonexistent regions are attached to the front panel of the waist panel.

Abstract: An absorbent article is formed by interposing superabsorbent polymer particles between overlapping two sheets. The pad-shaped absorbent article is composed of superabsorbent polymer particles bonded to the sheet with a hot melt adhesive, absorbing areas where the sheets are not bonded and sealing areas where the sheets are bonded together and surrounding the absorbing areas. Opposed two adjacent bonding areas of the absorbing areas have the sealing areas in between and facing edges which has the sealing areas in between. One of the facing edges is defined by a wavy line having crest and trough portions.

Abstract: An absorbent article having a pad configuration, including superabsorbent polymer particles. Superabsorbent polymer particles are interposed between opposed surfaces of first and second layers overlapping with each other to form an absorbent article. The article includes an absorbing region and a sealing region. In the absorbing region, the superabsorbent polymer particles are bonded to the second layer with a hot melt adhesive. In the sealing region, the first layer and the second layer are joined to each other to surround the absorbing region.

Abstract: A disposable pull-on wearing article including a pant-shaped chassis and an absorbent panel. A pull-on wearing article includes a pants-shaped chassis and an absorbent panel. The chassis has a front portion including a front waist region and part of a crotch region and a rear portion including a rear waist region and part of the crotch region. The front portion has a plurality of front waist elastics extending in a width direction and the rear portion has a plurality of rear waist elastics extending in the width direction. A bottom elastic of the front waist elastics and a bottom elastic of the rear waist elastics are in a stretched state in front peripheral edge portion and rear peripheral edge portion of respective leg-openings and in a relaxed state in a portion of the crotch region defined between a pair of the leg-openings.

Abstract: A disposable wearing article for reducing uncomfortable feeling of stiffness to a wearer includes a bodily fluid absorbent structure extending from front and rear waist regions to a crotch region. At least one of front and rear end portions of an intermediate panel is attached to a skin-facing side of an elastic waist panel by the intermediary of attachment zones except middle zones of the intermediate panel in a transverse direction. Between non-attachment zones provided in a middle of the intermediate panel as viewed in the transverse direction X and the elastic waist panel, middle void spaces are formed. The bodily fluid absorbent structure has a sheet shape formed of super-absorbent polymer particles wrapped with a liquid-pervious sheet. At least one of front and rear ends of the bodily fluid absorbent structure lies in the middle void spaces.

Abstract: A diaper includes front and rear waist members and a crotch member. The front and rear waist members are respectively formed with first narrowly-spaced elastic zones, widely-spaced elastic zones and second narrowly-spaced elastic zones adjacent one to another. Front and rear ends of the crotch member are bonded to respective sides of the front and rear waist members so that the crotch member's front and rear ends may positionally correspond to the second narrowly-spaced elastic zones. Cover sheets are attached to the side of the crotch member to cover the crotch member's front and rear ends respectively. A length dimension of the cover sheet in the longitudinal direction is set to be smaller than those of the front and rear waist members and a length dimension of the cover sheet in the transverse direction is substantially equal to those of the front and rear waist members.

Abstract: A disposable wearing article improved so that the crotch panel may be stably fastened to the outer surface of the waist panel and a relatively large amount of body waste may be absorbed and retained without deteriorating the absorption performance of the liquid-absorbent structure in the crotch panel. One of front and rear end portions of a crotch panel is attached to respective non-skin-facing sides of elasticized waist panels by the intermediary of bond-regions respectively including non-bond regions in midsections thereof. The waist region to which the one end portion is attached is formed at the midsection thereof with a separable portion extending in a longitudinal direction when a wearing article is put on the wearer's body.

Abstract: A pant-type wearing article comprises a front panel, a rear panel and a central panel. The front panel cooperates with the rear panel to form a waist region. The central panel includes a front end portion separably joined to the outer side of the waist region and a rear end portion separably joined to the outer side of the waist region. Side edges of the front end portion opposed to each other in the transverse direction are formed with front side corner regions and side edges of the rear end portion opposed to each other in the transverse direction are formed with rear side corner regions. At least one of the paired front side corner regions and the paired rear side corner regions is not joined to the outer surface of the waist region to form a gripper region.
