Patent number: 7942992Abstract: A bulky sheet material having three-dimensional protrusions comprises a first fiber layer and a second fiber layer provided on at least one side of the first fiber layer. The first fiber layer contains thermally shrunken heat-shrinkable fibers. The second fiber layer comprises heat non-shrinkable fibers. The first fiber layer and the second fiber layer are partly joined together at a large number of joints formed by fusion bonding. The joints are formed by melting and solidification of a heat fusible resin having a higher melting point than the shrinkage starting temperature of the heat shrinkable fiber. The second fiber layer forms a large number of protrusions between the joints by the heat shrinkage of the first fiber layer while leaving the joints as depressions.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2009Date of Patent: May 17, 2011Assignee: Kao CorporationInventors: Wataru Saka, Shoichi Taneichi, Takanobu Miyamoto

Patent number: 7534928Abstract: A topsheet for absorbent articles is disclosed. The topsheet is used on the side of an absorbent article to be brought into contact with a wearer's body. The topsheet has an air permeability of 10 ml/cm2·sec or more in the horizontal direction under a pressure of 10 cN/cm2. The topsheet also has an air permeability of 10 to 500 ml/cm2·sec in the horizontal direction under a pressure of 50 cN/cm2.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 2002Date of Patent: May 19, 2009Assignee: Kao CorporationInventors: Noriko Sakamoto, Hiroko Sugiura, Yasuo Toyoshima, Shoichi Taneichi, Wataru Saka

Patent number: 7303808Abstract: A bulky sheet material having three-dimensional protrusions 10 is disclosed. The sheet material comprises a first layer 1 and a second layer 2 adjacent to the first layer 1. The first layer 1 and the second layer 2 is partly joined together at joints 3 in a prescribed pattern. The first layer 1 has a number of raised portions which are located among the joints 3. The second layer 2 comprises a material which exhibits elastomeric behavior. The bulky sheet material 10 exhibits elastomeric behavior as a whole and breathability.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2001Date of Patent: December 4, 2007Assignee: KAO CorporationInventors: Shoichi Taneichi, Manabu Kaneta, Yasuhiro Komori, Takanobu Miyamoto, Wataru Saka, Yoshihiro Sakai
