Absorbent article

Abstract

An absorbent article in which a plurality of absorbent components is layered, and the absorbent component on top is peeled off after use. The article is configured to inhibit twisting or wrinkling during use. In the absorbent article, the upper absorbent component is layered on the skin-facing surface of the bottom absorbent component and peelably bonded by the temporal adhesive member. The bottom absorbent component has higher flexural rigidity than the upper absorbent component, and the compression recovery rate of the bottom absorbent component is also set so as to be higher than that of the upper absorbent component. It is thereby possible to prevent the bottom absorbent component from twisting and wrinkling when the upper absorbent component is placed against the discharge area, and after the upper absorbent component is peeled off, the volume of the bottom absorbent component is restored, and comfort during contact thereof with the discharge area is improved.

1 . An absorbent article having an absorbent component which includes a plurality of liquid-absorbent layers comprising:
 a bottom absorbent component which is positioned in a bottom side having a clothing-facing surface provided with a positioning-fixing element fixed to a piece of clothing, and having a skin-facing surface on the opposite side from the clothing-facing surface;   an upper absorbent component which is layered on the skin-facing surface of the bottom absorbent component; and   a temporal adhesive member which temporarily fixes the bottom absorbent component and the upper absorbent component,   wherein each of the bottom absorbent component and the upper absorbent component is configured with plurality of layers respectively and the layers are fixed with each other, and   wherein the adhesive strength of the temporal adhesive member between the absorbent components is lower than the fixing strength between each of the plurality of layers constituting the bottom absorbent component and than the fixing strength between each of the plurality of layers constituting the upper absorbent component.   
     
     
         2 . The absorbent article according to  claim 1 , wherein the temporal adhesive member is formed in a position towards the inside from the edge of the absorbent component. 
     
     
         3 . The absorbent article according to  claim 1 , wherein the temporal adhesive member is formed along a periphery of the absorbent component, and provided discontinuously where forming an excluded portion. 
     
     
         4 . The absorbent article according to  claim 3 , wherein the bottom absorbent component and the upper absorbent component each have four corners, and the plane pattern of the temporal adhesive member is curved at the tip of each of the four corners. 
     
     
         5 . The absorbent article according to  claim 3 , wherein the upper absorbent component is partially compressed in the excluded portion. 
     
     
         6 . The absorbent article according to  claim 1 , wherein non-fusible fibers are included in at least one surface selected from the skin-facing surface of the bottom absorbent component and the clothing-facing surface of the upper absorbent component, and the temporal adhesive member is pressed in the thickness direction, heated, and formed in a state in which the skin-facing surface and the clothing-facing surface are placed facing each other. 
     
     
         7 . The absorbent article according to  claim 1 , wherein the skin-facing surface of the bottom absorbent component and the skin-facing surface of the upper absorbent component differ in color from each other. 
     
     
         8 . The absorbent article according to  claim 1 , wherein an embossed pattern is formed in at least one surface selected from the skin-facing surface of the bottom absorbent component and the skin-facing surface of the upper absorbent component, and mutually different patterns are provided on the skin-facing surfaces. 
     
     
         9 . The absorbent article according to  claim 1 , wherein at least one functional agent selected from the group consisting of an antimicrobial agent, a deodorant, and a fragrance is included in at least the bottom absorbent component. 
     
     
         10 . The absorbent article according to  claim 9 , wherein the functional agent comprises a tea-leaf extract.
