Abstract

A refastenable absorbent garment includes a first body panel having a body side and a garment side and a second body panel having a body side and a garment side. A fastener member is attached to the body side of the first body panel and is releasably attached to the body side of the second body panel. A method for assembling a refastenable absorbent garment includes applying a garment side of a first portion of the fastener member to a body side of a first body panel, and releasably applying the body side of the second body panel to a garment side of a second portion of the fastener member. A method for manufacturing a refastenable absorbent garment includes moving a first body panel web having a body side and a garment side in a machine direction, moving a second body panel web having a body side and a garment side in a machine direction, providing a plurality of fastener members each comprising a first and second portion each having a body side and a garment side, successively applying the garment side of the first portions of the fastener members to the body side of the first body panel web, and successively, releasably applying the body side of the second body panel web to the garment side of the second portions of the fastener members. A method of using an absorbent garment is also provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to a refastenable absorbent garment, and in particular to a refastenable absorbent garment of the pant type without seam lines and to a method of making the same. Background technique [0002] Absorbent garments can be constructed in many different forms. For example, absorbent garments may be constructed as pant-type, wearing garments, or diaper-type products that are lifted between the legs and fastened around the waist with various fastening systems. Wearing garments of the pant type are usually provided with various elastic elements which ensure fastening on the body of the user and provide a comfortable fit. However, such garments generally do not have a refastening mechanism that allows the garment to be easily removed after use or when adjustments are made during its use. Garments, especially of the pant type, are often made from one or more body panels joined together at seam lines formed along the side...
