Disposible hygiene article, e.g. nappy or incontinence pad, contains laminated front side material with elongated opening covered by liquid permeable piece and provided with elastic barriers

摘要

The laminate forming the front side of the article (625) has at least one piece (108) of liquid-permeable material applied to the absorbent core (630) to cover an elongated opening (606) in the liquid-impermeable material. Barriers (609a-609d) protruding from the plane of the piece and through the opening above the other side of the laminate are used to form the elastic around the opening. A surface laminate with a first side for contact with the skin and a second side designed to face an absorbent core in a disposible hygiene article comprises a liquid-impermeable material and at least one elongated elastic part (605a, 605b). The edges of the liquid-impermeable material enclose at least one elongated opening and the elongated elastic parts are formed by folds in the liquid-impermeable material along two opposite length sides of the opening At least one piece of liquid-permeable material is applied onto the second side of the laminate to cover the opening and the edge regions around it in order to form a liquid inlet in the laminate. This piece only covers part of the second side of the laminate and is secured only in the outer regions of the liquid impermeable material edges, so that barriers protrude from the plane of the piece and through the slot above the first side of the laminate. Two or more of the barriers comprise the elastic parts. Independent claims are also included for (a) a method of preparing the laminate, (b) the apparatus used for this method, and (c) the disposible hygiene article.
