TAMPON
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2018038771
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a tampon capable of being used with an easy mind at a pool, hot spring, or the like, the tampon capable of effectively inhibiting leakage of menstrual blood bypassing a tampon body even at a final stage of menstrual blood absorption as well as suppressing water infiltration from the tampon's vaginal opening side.SOLUTION: A tampon 1 includes a tampon body 2 whose back end side is covered with a liquid blocking part 3 made from material blocking water, the liquid blocking part 3 being integrated with a menstrual blood reservoir 6 having a closed back end in a shape extending from a back end edge of the tampon body 2. The liquid blocking part 3 includes a body 5 that is connected, to the tampon body 2, along the circumferential direction using a bypass permission connection part 4 for permitting menstrual blood bypassing the external surface of the tampon body 2 to pass through. The tampon body 2 absorbs menstrual blood from the front end side; when the menstrual blood absorption becomes close to saturation, a menstrual blood flow bypassing the external surface of the tampon body 2 flows, through the bypass permission connection part 4, into the inside of the liquid blocking part's body 5. The bypassing menstrual blood flow having flown into the liquid blocking part's body 5 reaches the back end edge of the tampon body 2 and, after then, is captured in the menstrual blood reservoir 6.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
