DISPOSABLE HYGIENE ARTICLE WITH IMPROVED FIT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240016667 titled 'DISPOSABLE HYGIENE ARTICLE WITH IMPROVED FIT
Simplified Explanation
The disclosed patent application describes a disposable hygiene article that includes a liquid-permeable topsheet, a liquid-impermeable backsheet, and an absorbent core arranged between them. The topsheet and backsheet extend beyond the absorbent core to provide an outer boundary region of the article. The outer contour of the absorbent core is defined by mutually symmetrical mirror-imaged portions about the longitudinal centerline. The core includes a neck region, with the portion forward of the neck region defined as the head region and the portion rearward of the neck defined as the body portion. The article also includes at least one asymmetrical wing with an outer edge that meets the disposable hygiene article at front and rear wing junctions.
