Patent number: 11617687Abstract: The methods herein relate to assembling an elastic laminate with a first elastic material and a second elastic material bonded between first and second substrates. During assembly, an elastic laminate may be formed by positioning the first and second substrates in contact with stretched central regions of the first and second elastic materials. The elastic laminates may include two or more bonding regions that may be defined by the various layers or components of the elastic laminate that are laminated or stacked relative to each other. In some configurations, a first plurality of ultrasonic bonds are applied to the elastic laminate to define a first bond density in the first bonding region, and a second plurality of ultrasonic bonds are applied to the elastic laminate to define a second bond density in the second bonding region, wherein the second bond density is not equal to the first bond density.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2022Date of Patent: April 4, 2023Assignee: THE PROCTER & GAMBLE COMPANYInventors: Todd Douglas Lenser, Urmish Popatlal Dalal, Uwe Schneider, Todd Joseph Statt, Joerg Mueller, Melanie Acevedo

Publication number: 20220354709Abstract: An absorbent article includes a first waist region, a second waist region and a crotch region disposed between the first and second waist regions; and a chassis comprising a topsheet, a backsheet and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet. The absorbent article also includes an ear disposed in one of the waist regions. The ear includes a laminate having a first nonwoven and a second nonwoven and an elastomeric material sandwiched between said first and second nonwovens in an elasticized region. The laminate also includes a first bonding region comprising a first plurality of ultrasonic bonds having a first bond density, and a second bonding region comprising a second plurality of ultrasonic bonds having a second bond density. The first bond density is greater than the second bond density.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2022Publication date: November 10, 2022Inventors: Urmish Popatlal DALAL, Todd Douglas LENSER, Uwe SCHNEIDER, Todd Joseph STATT, Joerg MUELLER, Melanie ACEVEDO, Hiroshi NAKAHATA

Publication number: 20220233362Abstract: The methods herein relate to assembling an elastic laminate with a first elastic material and a second elastic material bonded between first and second substrates. During assembly, an elastic laminate may be formed by positioning the first and second substrates in contact with stretched central regions of the first and second elastic materials. The elastic laminates may include two or more bonding regions that may be defined by the various layers or components of the elastic laminate that are laminated or stacked relative to each other. In some configurations, a first plurality of ultrasonic bonds are applied to the elastic laminate to define a first bond density in the first bonding region, and a second plurality of ultrasonic bonds are applied to the elastic laminate to define a second bond density in the second bonding region, wherein the second bond density is not equal to the first bond density.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2022Publication date: July 28, 2022Inventors: Todd Douglas LENSER, Urmish Popatlal DALAL, Uwe SCHNEIDER, Todd Joseph STATT, Joerg MUELLER, Melanie ACEVEDO
