US Patent:

20210236348, Aug 5, 2021

Filed:

Apr 22, 2021

Appl. No.:

17/237097

Inventors:

- Cincinnati OH, US
Jason Ashley WAGNER - Lawrenceburg IN, US

International Classification:

A61F 13/49
A61F 13/514
A61F 13/15

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to absorbent articles and methods for assembling absorbent articles with substrates and/or components that include graphics with zones of relatively high print densities and zones of relatively low print densities. In turn, the zones of relatively low print densities may be positioned in regions that are subject to various manufacturing transformations during the assembly process. As such, the graphics may be positioned and/or printed in such a manner so as to reduce noticeable visible results of imprecise and/or inconsistent manufacturing operations performed in areas where the graphics are located.

Sarah Nicole Wolfe - Cincinnati OH, US

International Classification:

A61F 13/15
A61F 13/551
B32B 37/14

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to absorbent articles and methods for assembling absorbent articles having a design including: a first graphic printed on a first component and a second graphic printed on a second component. During the assembly process, the first and second components are combined to form a discontinuous region devoid of printing and separating the first graphic from the second graphic. The discontinuous region extends between an end edge of the first graphic and an end edge of the second graphic and defines an imaginary continuous extension of an established direction of the first graphic to the second graphic. Thus, the discontinuous region helps to provide the appearance that the first and second graphics form a contiguous design while at the same time mitigating the need to precisely align the graphics on separated components to form a contiguous design during the assembly process.

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to absorbent articles and methods for assembling absorbent articles having a design including: a first graphic extending along a first component, a second graphic extending along a second component, and a discontinuous region separating the first graphic from the second graphic. The discontinuous region is configured to provide the appearance that the first and second graphics form a contiguous design while at the same time mitigating the need to precisely align the graphics on separated components to form a contiguous design during the assembly process.

B32B 7/08

Abstract:

A multi-component topsheet for an absorbent article includes a first discrete substrate forming about 80% or more of an outer perimeter of the topsheet and a second discrete substrate wherein about 80% or more of an outer perimeter of the second discrete substrate is joined to the first discrete substrate, wherein the topsheet has a single layer of substrate in about 75% or more of the total area of the topsheet and a dual layer of substrate in about 25% or less of the total area of the topsheet, wherein the dual layer of substrate is formed from an overlap between the first discrete substrate and the second discrete substrate, wherein the second discrete substrate, according to the Overall Substrate Height Test for Substrates with First and Second Projections, has an overall z-directional height of between about 1400 μm and about 2250 μm.

International Classification:

A61F 13/512

Abstract:

A multi-component topsheet for an absorbent article includes a first discrete substrate, a second discrete substrate, and a third discrete substrate, wherein the second discrete substrate is disposed at least partially intermediate the first discrete substrate and the third discrete substrate, wherein the second discrete substrate is joined to the first discrete substrate and the third discrete substrate, wherein the topsheet has a single layer of substrate in about 80% or more of the total area of the topsheet and a dual layer of substrate in about 20% or less of the total area of the topsheet.
