Abstract: A wearing article configured so that loop elements engaged with associated hook elements will not ride up or curl up in the course of the production process. Mount members are attached to an inner sheet in a front waist region so as to extend along first lateral zones of the front waist region and hook elements are attached to a chassis by the intermediary of these mount members. Loop elements are attached to the inner sheet in a rear waist region so as to extend along second lateral zones of the rear waist region. Third regions of the respective mount members are formed with sticking zones operatively associated with outer lateral edges of the respective loop elements. The sticking zones formed on the respective mount members are temporarily joined to the loop elements as the hook elements are engaged with the associated loop elements.

Abstract: A pant-type wearing article configured so as to prevent a lateral zone of a front waist region and an associated lateral zone of a rear waist region which should remain fastened together from being needlessly disengaged from each other. In the pant-type wearing article an outer surface of a base sheet strip constituting a front fastener component is bonded to a fixed region defined on an inner surface of a front lateral zone. The front lateral zone includes a free region to which the base sheet strip is not bonded. The free region normally takes a posture folded back in a waistline direction so that an outer surface of the front lateral zone lies inside.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of making a wearing article improved so that mount members in folded state can be easily released from a temporarily fixing effect. The method of making a wearing article involves folding back each of mount members from the side of a top-sheet of a front waist region toward an inner side facing the wearer's skin so as to define first regions, second regions and third regions; bonding the first regions to the top-sheet in the front waist region by means of first adhesive layers; bonding the first regions to the second regions by means of second adhesive layers; forming first arrays of adhesive spots between the second regions and the third regions; hook elements are bonded to surfaces of the third regions on the side of the top-sheet in a rear waist region; bond loop elements to the top-sheet in the rear waist region; and engaging the loop elements with the hook elements. The first arrays of adhesive spots are formed in area overlapping the hook elements.

Abstract: An effective technique for enhancing ease of mounting a urine absorbing pad on a diaper body is provided in a diaper to be worn by a diaper wearer. The diaper has a urine absorbing pad to be mounted on the diaper body. The urine absorbing pad includes a liquid-permeable sheet provided on a wearer's side, a liquid-impermeable sheet provided on a diaper body side, an absorber disposed between the liquid-permeable sheet and the liquid-impermeable sheet laid one on another, and an annular belt formed in a rear end edge region of the urine absorbing pad. When the urine absorbing pad is mounted on the diaper body, an insertion piece of the diaper body is inserted into an opening of the belt, so that the urine absorbing pad is positioned with respect to the diaper body.

Abstract: A pants-type wearing article includes front and rear waist regions connected to each other by a fastener member in a detachable and refastenable manner. Each of the fastener member includes a sheet-like supporting element adapted to be folded in a Z-shape or an inverted Z-shape as the front and rear waist regions are put flat together and a fastener element. The supporting element has a top section, a bottom section and an intermediate section connecting the top and bottom sections. Between opposed surfaces of the bottom section and the intermediate section, a sheet-like liner section is provided so as to extend from a bottom section's openable end of the bottom section along these opposed surfaces toward a top section's joint end.

Abstract: A wearing article includes a chassis and a fastening system. The chassis includes front and rear waist regions each having a waist hole defining edge and a waist hole elastic zone. The fastening system includes a first fastening component attached along side edge portions of one of the front and rear waist regions and having first and second ends in a longitudinal direction and a second fastening component attached along side edge portions of the other of the front and rear waist regions and detachably engageable with the first fastening component and first and second ends in the longitudinal direction. The first end of said second fastening component is beyond the first end of the first fastening component and an edge of the second waist hole elastic zone to a side of the second waist hole defining edge, with the first and second fastening components normally engaged with each other.
