Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A layered nonwoven fabric with excellent feel on the skin and liquid permeability, and a method for producing the layered nonwoven fabric. The layered nonwoven fabric includes an upper layer consisting of a first nonwoven fabric and a lower layer consisting of a second nonwoven fabric. The layered nonwoven fabric has a first surface on the first nonwoven fabric side with a plurality of protrusions and recesses and a second surface on the second nonwoven fabric side. The protrusions on the first surface have a higher basis weight than the recesses on the first surface, and the protrusions on the first surface have a lower fiber density than the recesses on the first surface.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A layered nonwoven fabric comprising an upper layer consisting of a first nonwoven fabric and a lower layer consisting of a second nonwoven fabric, wherein the first nonwoven fabric and second nonwoven fabric are each composed of extendable fibers, and some of the extendable fibers of the first nonwoven fabric are tangled with some of the extendable fibers of the second nonwoven fabric, the layered nonwoven fabric has a first surface on the first nonwoven fabric side with a plurality of protrusions and recesses and a second surface on the second nonwoven fabric side, at least some of the protrusions on the first surface have spaces formed between the upper layer and lower layer, the protrusions on the first surface have a higher basis weight than the recesses on the first surface, and the protrusions on the first surface have a lower fiber density than the recesses on the first surface. 2. The layered nonwoven fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the first nonwoven fabric has a maximum tensile strength that is equal to or weaker than the second nonwoven fabric. 3. The layered nonwoven fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the first nonwoven fabric is derived from an air-through nonwoven fabric, and the second nonwoven fabric is derived from a spunbond nonwoven fabric. 4. The layered nonwoven fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the extendable fibers of the first nonwoven fabric and/or second nonwoven fabric have a plurality of neck sections with partially narrowed diameters. 5. The layered nonwoven fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the protrusions on the first surface are arranged in a zigzag pattern on the first surface. 6. A layered nonwoven fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the second surface has a plurality of protrusions and a plurality of recesses, and the layered nonwoven fabric has one or more open holes connecting the recess on the first surface and the recess on the second surface. 7. The layered nonwoven fabric according to claim 2 , wherein the first nonwoven fabric is derived from an air-through nonwoven fabric, and the second nonwoven fabric is derived from a spunbond nonwoven fabric. 8. The layered nonwoven fabric according to claim 2 , wherein the extendable fibers of the first nonwoven fabric and/or second nonwoven fabric have a plurality of neck sections with partially narrowed diameters.
