Description

Individually packaged absorbent products
The present invention relates to an individually packaged absorbent product, such as a sanitary towel, an inconti¬ nence protector or like product, which product includes a first, liquid permeable outer layer which when the product is worn is intended to face the wearer, a second, liquid impermeable outer layer which when the product is worn is intended to face away from the wearer, and an absorbent body or pad which is enclosed between the first and second layers.
Hitherto, articles of hygiene, such as sanitary towels, have normally been packaged in packs containing a plura¬ lity of such articles. In more recent times, however, there has been a progressive trend towards packaging each item separately in individual packs. This enables a user to carry one or more such articles on or about his/her person in a practical and hygienic fashion, for instance in a handbag. Thus, such individually packaged articles afford important advantages on the part of the user. How¬ ever, larεe quantities of packaging material are consumed when packaging such articles individually, which increases manufacturing costs and thereby necessitates a relatively high retail price.
The present invention provides an individually packaged article of hygiene which is both simple and inexpensive to produce.
A package produced in accordance with the invention is primarily characterized in that in the packaeed state of the article both end Dortions of the article a ≤ folded in towards one another with the liquid impermeable layer facing outwards such that the edges of the end portions abut one another; and in that said end portions are mutually connected by a strip of material which bridges the join or region of abutment between the end portions and is secured thereto on respective sides of the join, whereby the unused article constitutes a package in itself and the liquid impermeable layer forms a protective enve¬ lope for the liquid permeable layer and the absorbent body, and the join between said end portions can be broken by loosening or dividing the strip in two.
In the case of a preferred embodiment, the liquid imperme¬ able layer is provided with a coating of pressure-respon¬ sive adhesive, which is preferably applied in the form of at least one length or string and which functions to secure the article to the leg underwear of the user, and the strip is secured to the adhesive coating at the end portions of the article.
In the case of another embodiment, the adhesive coating is covered with a protective foil strip which has been trea¬ ted with a release agent and which shall be removed prior to using the article, said foil also forming the holding strip which joins together the two end portions of the article in its packaged state.
By using the liquid impermeable layer of the article as a protective covering, the article can be packaged in an individual pack form with the minimum consumption of packaging material.
An article of hygiene constructed in accordance with the invention will now be described in more detail with refe¬ rence to an exemplifying embodiment thereof illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1 illustrates an extended sanitary towel constructed in accordance with the invention; and
Fig. 2 illustrates the same sanitary towel when folded;
Fig. 3 illustrates a folded sanitary towel constructed in accordance with a second embodiment; and
Figs. 4 and 5 illustrate two different ways of opening a package formed with an article constructed in accordance with the invention.
The sanitary towel illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2 includes a first layer 1 of liquid permeable material, such as non- woven fabric, a second layer 2 of liquid impermeable mate¬ rial, such as plastic, and an absorbent body or pad 3, e.g. made of cellulose fluff, enclosed between the first and second layers 1, 2.
The liquid permeable laver 2 is attached to the outside of the towel, this layer facing away from the wearer when the towel is in use and thus forming the underside of the towel. Applied along the full length of the towel is a string 4 of pressure-responsive adhesive, e.g. melt glue, which functions to hold the towel firmly in position on the panties or knickers of the wearer.
The adhesive coating is covered by a protective strip 5 coated with a release agent, until the towel is to be used. This strip is slightly displaced axially in relation to the towel, so that a part 6 of the strip 5 projects beyond one end 7 of the towel. That region 9 of the other end 8 of the towel which lies closest to the edge of said end is left free of adhesive.
In its packaged state, the towel is folded with the two end parts 7,8 folded in towards one another and with the liquid impermeable layer 2 turned outwards, as illustrated in Fig. 2. The strip part 6 projecting beyond said one end 7 of the towel therewith bridges the join or abutment line 10 between the end portions 7,8 and is secured to the adhesive-free region 9 of the other end 8 of the towel. The towel is thus secured in its folded state and itself forms a compact "package". Soiling of the liquid permeable layer 1 and the absorbent body 3 is prevented by the liquid impermeable layer 2, e.g. when the towel is carried in a handbag prior to use.
In the case of the illustrated embodiment, both enveloping layers 1, 2 of the towel are mutually joined around the absorbent body 3, either by gluing or by heat welding processes. The liquid impermeable layer 2 will therewith only cover the underside of the absorbent body 3. In the case of an alternative embodiment, not shown, the liquid impermeable layer 2 is folded up over the long sides of the towel and is optionally also caused to cover the edge parts of the upper side of the towel, i.e. the side of the towel which faces towards the wearer. In the case of this embodiment, the liquid permeable layer is suitably attach¬ ed to form a bag-like casing which encloses both the absorbent body and the liquid impermeable layer. When the towel is folded in accordance with the invention, all of the outwardly facing surfaces of the absorbent body will be protected by the liquid impermeable layer.
In the case of the Fig. 3 embodiment, the protective strip 5 coated with release agent is somewhat shorter than the towel itself. The pressure-sensitive glue string 4, how¬ ever, extends along the whole length of the towel, there¬ with leaving an uncovered region of adhesive 11, 12 at respective ends 7,8 of the towel. These regions of adhe¬ sive 11, 12 are utilized to hold the towel folded, by serving as attachment means for a strip of material 13 which bridges the join 10 between the ends 7,8 of the_ towel. This strip 13 is only intended to hold the ends 7,8 of the towel together in its folded state and need not necessarily be treated with a release agent. When the towel is to be used, the towel ends 7,8 are separated, simply by tearing the holding strip 13 in two, as illu¬ strated in Fig. 4.
In the case of the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2, the outwardly extending part 6 of the strip 5 is pre¬ ferably treated with a release agent, similarly to the strip 5 in general. The towel ends 7,8 can then be separa¬ ted by loosening the outwardly extending strip part 6 from the adhesive coating 9, which is simplest to effect when the strip 5 is slightly longer than the towel, as illu¬ strated in Fig. 5, so as to form a freely projecting grip flap 14 at the point where the ends 15, 16 of the protec¬ tive strip meet.
The invention shall not be considered to be restricted to the described examples thereof, since various modifica¬ tions are conceivable within the scope of the following claims.
