Abstract
A urine absorption pad for preventing leakage of urine is provided. A urine absorption pad includes: a front surface sheet (16) which has water permeability and contacts a skin; a back surface sheet (17) which has water impermeability and contacts underwear; an absorbent (18) which is sandwiched between the front surface sheet (16) and the back surface sheet (17) and absorbs urine having passed through the front surface sheet (16); and a guide A (11) and a guide B (12) which allow urine to permeate and are self-standing so as to rise to the front surface sheet (16) side with respect to the absorbent (18) to control flow of urine. The guide A (11) is arranged at an edge portion, and the guide B (12) is arranged so as to extend in a left-right direction.
Claims2
A urine absorption pad system comprising:
- a front surface sheet that has water permeability and contacts a skin;
- a back surface sheet that has water impermeability and contacts underwear;
- an absorbent that is sandwiched between the front surface sheet and the back surface sheet and absorbs urine having passed through the front surface sheet;
- and
- a guide A and a guide B that are self-standing so as to rise to the front surface sheet side with respect to the absorbent and that allow urine to permeate to control flow of urine,
- wherein the guide A and the guide B are separate bodies, are porous bodies that have continuous voids and water permeability, and which do not contain a superabsorbent polymer,
- wherein the guide A has higher water retainability than the guide B, has water impermeability provided at an outermost surface facing an outside of the system, and prevents overflow of urine outside of the system,
- wherein the guide B has a U shape and is arranged so as to extend in a left-right direction of the urine absorption pad system, and
- wherein the guide A is arranged along an edge portion of the absorbent in a longitudinal direction, perpendicular to the left-right direction of the urine absorption pad system, and extends below the guide B in the longitudinal direction.
