Abstract
(EN)
A method for forming an apertured laminate web (40) formed from a first material (42) and second material (44) which may be used as a topsheet (24) on a disposable absorbent article, such as a diaper. The second material (44) preferably has a hydrophilicity which is greater than the hydrophilicity of the first material (42). The first and second materials (42, 44) are fed through a nip (250) formed by a first pair of heated rollers one of the rollers (260) having a smooth outer surface and the other roller (254) having an outer surface with a plurality of projections extending from its outer surface. The first pair of rollers bond the materials together to form a laminate web (40) and create a plurality of apertures having a fused perimeter. Cooling the laminate web (40) to solidify the fused perimeter of the apertures. Feeding the laminate through a nip (250) formed by a second pair of rollers to break the solidified fused perimeter of the apertures.

La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant de fabriquer un voile multicouche perforé (40) à partir d'une première matière (42) et d'une seconde matière (44), et qui peut être utilisé comme enveloppe extérieure (24) pour un article absorbant jetable, tel que des couches. L'hydrophilicité de la seconde matière (44) est de préférence supérieure à celle de la première matière (42). La première et la seconde matière (42, 44) sont introduites dans la zone de pincement (250) de deux rouleaux chauffés dont l'un (260) présente une surface extérieure lisse et l'autre (254) une surface extérieure munie d'une pluralité de saillants. Le passage entre la première paire de rouleaux à pour effet de faire adhérer les matières l'une à l'autre pour former un voile multicouche (40) et de créer une pluralité de perforations dont le périmètre est obtenu par fusion. Le refroidissement du voile multicouche (40) entraîne une solidification du périmètre obtenu par fusion des perforations. Le passage dans la zone de pincement (250) d'une seconde paire de rouleaux provoque la rupture du périmètre solidifié obtenu par fusion.
