Description

BODY ATTACHED HYGIENIC UNDERWEAR GASKET FOR DISPOSABLE USE

Technical field

This utility model relates to sanitary products of the medical industry, in particular to underarm hygiene pads attached to the body for single use.

Description of the Related Art Many types of axillary inserts and panty liners are known for protecting clothing from sweat secretions of the human body (see, for example, Patents RU N '53897, RU N' 48717). Known axillary liner disclosed in the patent for utility model RU N * 66906, contains a three-layer gasket with an adjacent, absorbent and outer layers, and is attached to clothing. This well-known liner has an oval shape corresponding to the individual size of the axillary cavity of the user, and on the edge of the outer layer of the oval there is an adhesive base covered with a paper film. The main and significant disadvantage of the known products is the method of using axillary pads, namely, the method of attaching it exclusively to consumer clothing. Moreover, various mounting methods are known, such as: sewing, gluing, tying. In addition, in practice, when using known products, almost all axillary pads attached to clothes are not tightly attached to the body of the consumer in the armpit area. This leads to the fact that there is insufficient protection against unpleasant odors (because sweat secretions are not always absorbed into the panty liner), as well as insufficient protection of clothing (because when the panty liner is loose, the sweat secretions flow down , sometimes down to the lumbar region). Besides In addition, it is necessary to note the limited scope, which does not correspond much to modern trends in modeling clothes in the armpit areas, since it is impossible or difficult to use known products to protect clothes without sleeves, clothes with a shortened sleeve or with a deep armhole, as well as clothes such as bodices, tops, etc. .P.

Thus, there is a need to increase the effectiveness of clothing protection and eliminate unpleasant odors with sweat.

Utility Model Essence

The objective of this utility model is to create a one-time universal product to protect almost the entire range of shoulder clothing from sweat in the armpits, which also provides an effective elimination of unpleasant sweat odors. The product should have high consumer performance, such as aesthetics, ergonomics, usability, hygiene, reliability, and also meet all the necessary industrial requirements.

The problem is solved by the fact that a hygienic axillary pad attached to the body is proposed for disposable use, having a longitudinal axis and a transverse axis and containing at least three layers: a moisture-permeable layer facing the user's body, a moisture-proof layer facing the clothes, and located between these layers of an absorbent layer in which the above layers are bonded to each other at least along the contour of the gasket, while the end region of the moisture-permeable layer on top of the body At least partially provided with an adhesive coating for attaching the gasket to the skin of the consumer in the armpits. The gasket preferably has a line of weakening located in the area of natural inflection along the transverse axis of the gasket, for the convenience of the user when using the product. It is also advisable to perform on the longer edges of the strip in the area of the natural inflection of the extensions at the edges of the strip essentially in the form of a semicircle in which fan-shaped perforated lines are made to better adhere the product to the skin of the user and increase protection against axillary secretions. Preferably, no adhesive coating is provided on said extensions.

The gasket according to the utility model can be made corresponding to the individual size of the axillary cavity of the user and in various colors, preferably matched to the skin color of the consumer.

As a rule, the gasket is made symmetrical with respect to the transverse or longitudinal axis and has the shape of a polygon with rounded corners, such as a trapezoid or rhombus, or has the shape of an elongated oval.

Preferably, an additional layer impregnated with aromatic substances, for example, plant and flower extracts, is placed between the moisture-proof layer and the absorbent layer. In addition, in the gasket, the moisture-permeable layer and / or the adsorbent layer may contain at least one antibacterial and / or deodorizing and / or drug substance, and the moisture-permeable layer may contain a dry powder, for example, such as talc. The total thickness of the gasket may vary depending on the purpose of its use. For example, the panty liner should be thin enough to create comfort for the wearer while at the same time its purpose, while a gasket used for medical purposes may have a greater thickness. As a rule, the total thickness of all layers of the gasket is in the range from 1 mm to 2 mm. However, the gasket may have a thickness of 2 mm to 5 mm or 5 mm to 25 mm.

The adhesive coating of the gasket is preferably in the form of a strip of glue. This can be a continuous strip along the entire contour of the gasket, or the adhesive coating is applied only to certain sections of the edge zones. It is advisable that the removable protective coating be applied to the adhesive coating for ease of use of the product.

The gasket may be provided with elements protruding beyond the main contour of the gasket, while an adhesive coating may be applied to these elements. The protruding elements can have a variety of shapes suitable for applying an adhesive coating to them, for example, rectangular, arcuate, triangular, etc., and can be an element made of a solid piece of material or strip of material attached to the gasket. The elements protruding beyond the gasket contour provide additional convenience for the user in the process of attaching the gasket to the body, and are also preferred when using it. Additionally, for user convenience, the gasket during storage is folded along the transverse axis with adhesive coatings facing each other.

The product, if necessary, can also be used to protect the cervical-collar zone and the area of the wrists. In the presented utility model, the maximum absorbing effect is achieved due to the tight fit of the protective product to the area of the consumer’s body, where sweat secretions occur, which leads to expansion cases of product use due to greater secrecy of the use process. This utility model uses a fundamentally new approach to the method of attachment, namely, the method of attachment to the body of the consumer. Brief Description of the Drawings
