Summary: | An enhanced flexibility fastener product (30) has a base (35) and hook elements (34a, 34b, 34c) extending from the base (35). Rip-stops (26a, 26b, 26c) integrally molded with the base (35) and with the hook elements (34a, 34b, 34c) are offset relative to the hook elements to reduce widthwise stiffness of the fastener product (30). The edge margins of the fastener (30) are featured in that they taper (31) or otherwise reduce in thickness over an extended distance, preferably from at or near the hooks (34a, 34b, 34c) to the edge, resulting in a softer, less irritating fastener tape (30). Fasteners according to the invention are particularly advantageous on disposable absorbent garments (10) such as diapers, sanitary napkins, and other articles of wear which come into contact with the user's skin.
Un producto flexibilidad incrementada (30) tiene un base (35) y elementos de gancho (34A, 34B,34C), que se extienden desde la base (35). Limitadores de rasgadura (26A, 26B, 26C), integralmente modelados con la base (35) y con los elementos de gancho (34A, 34B, 34C) están desplazados en la relacion d los elementos de gancho para reducir la rigidez a lo ancho del producto sujetador (30). Los márgenes del borde del sujetador (30) se asemeja en que estos están ahusados (31), o de otra manera reducidos en grosor sobre una distancia extendida, preferiblemente desde, o cerca de los ganchos (34A, 34B, 34C) hasta el borde, resultando en una cinta de sujetador más suave, menos irritante. Los sujetadores de acuerdo a la invencion son particularmente ventajosas en prendas absorbentes desechables (10) tales como pañales, toallas sanitarias, y otros artículos de uso que pueden entrar en contacto con la piel del usuario. |
