Definitions
- This invention relates to feminine menstrual protection devices and, more particularly, to menstrual shorts incorporating a lifting mechanism for positioning a catamenial pad in the pudendal region ofthe female wearer.
- catamenial pads are commercially available in a wide variety of configurations for the specific purpose of absorbing and retaining menstrual fluids and other vaginal discharges. Regardless of the specific configuration, all catamenial pads are intended to isolate the discharged menses for preventing the undergarments, clothing, bedding etc. surrounding the disposable article from becoming soiled.
- a primary failure mechanism associated with catamenial pads is leakage of menses from a rear portion thereof due to poor fit in the gluteal groove and against the perineum of the female wearer.
- a washable and reusable garment such as a menstrual short or panty
- a disposable catamenial pad For example, U.S. Patent 3,489,149 to Larson discloses a washable menstrual panty having a small pocket in the crotch area for retaining a disposable catamenial pad. Since the menses must initially flow through a layer of material forming the pocket to reach the catamenial pad, removal of the soiled catamenial pad can be distasteful, difficult and unsanitary. While a new pad can be inserted into the pocket, the garment is already soiled and would typically be changed.
- the pocket may not accommodate the varied sizes of catamenial pads currently on the market.
- the menstrual panty is not adapted to deliberately position the catamenial pad for preventing leakage of menses from the rear portion thereof.
- Various other menstrual shorts or panties are known which also fail to adequately address the need for properly positioning and retaining the disposable catamenial pad in the pudendal region ofthe female wearer.
- U.S. Patent 4,560,381 to Southwell describes a mesh-like outer panty shell with a thick inner layer of absorbent material in the lower crotch area of the panty.
- the inner layer of absorbent material includes a depression for receiving and positioning a catamenial pad.
- Patent 4,813,950 to Branch a washable menstrual panty is disclosed as having an outer lining of spandex, soft tricot, etc. and an inner lining of soft plastic film to prevent passage of menses therethrough.
- existing Japanese- style menstrual shorts act like a girdle or very tight fitting panty which holds the catamenial pad in the wearer's pudendal region.
- positioning of the catamenial pad is achieved by the tightness ofthe menstrual short which, in turn, may cause discomfort to the wearer.
- the catamenial pad is not positioned and retained by the menstrual shorts in the gluteal groove and against the perineum to prevent leakage of menses from the rear portion of the catamenial pad.
- such known menstrual garments are typically designed to position the catamenial pad near the vaginal vestibule and attempt to prevent leakage of menses by using liquid impervious layers or boundaries.
- the menstrual garment of the present invention is a washable and reusable panty or short having an outer layer defining first and second leg openings for receiving the legs of a female wearer.
- an inner layer or gusset-type liner is provided between the first and second leg openings and is attached to the outer layer.
- a disposable catamenial pad is retained on the inner layer.
- the menstrual short includes a lifting mechanism.
- the lifting mechanism is an elongated cinch that is located between the inner and outer layers.
- the cinch is adapted to lift the inner layer which, in turn, lifts the catamenial pad into the gluteal groove and against the perineum of the female, thereby providing sustained body contact for inhibiting leakage of menses from a rear portion of the catamenial pad.
- the menstrual short may further include a guide for maintaining alignment of the cinch along a center portion of the inner layer.
- the lifting mechanism can include a stitched ridge of seam that is sewn into the inner layer for lifting the catamenial pad in a similar manner.
- Figure 1 is a front view of a menstrual short according to the prior art and which is shown being worn by a female;
- Figure 2 is a front view of an improved menstrual short incorporating a cinch-type lifting mechanism according to the present invention
- Figure 3 is plan view of the menstrual short of Figure 2;
- Figure 4 is an enlarged plan view of a portion of the menstrual short shown in Figure 3;
- Figure 5 is a side view of the menstrual short of Figure 2;
- Figure 6 is a rear view of the menstrual short of Figure 2 folded flat along lateral sides thereof;
- Figure 7 is a plan view of an alternate embodiment for the lifting mechanism ofthe present invention showing a gusset-type liner incorporating a stitched seam;
- Figure 8 is a side view of the alternate embodiment of Figure 7;
- Figure 9 is an enlarged plan view of a portion of a menstrual short incorporating a deformation element according to a third embodiment of the present invention.
- Figure 10A is an end view of a first deformation element shown in a relaxed state
- Figure 10B is an end view of the first deformation element of Figure 10A illustrating lateral forces applied along lateral edges of the first deformation element;
- Figure 11 A is an end view of a second deformation element according to third embodiment ofthe present invention in a relaxed state
- Figure 11 B is an end view of the second deformation element of Figure 11A with lateral forces applied along lateral edges thereof.
- the present invention relates generally to washable and reusable menstrual garments and, more particularly, to a menstrual short or panty incorporating a lifting mechanism for lifting a disposable catamenial pad into enhanced contact with the wearer's pudendal region.
- the lifting mechanism is adapted to cause the catamenial pad to be lifted into intimate contact with the gluteal groove and against the perineum of the female wearer for inhibiting leakage of menses for the rear portion of the catamenial pad.
- Enhanced labial contact may be provided as well.
- the term “disposable catamenial pad” refers to an absorbent article which is worn by females adjacent to the pudendal region for absorbing and containing menstrual fluids and other vaginal discharges, and which is intended to be discarded after a single use.
- the term “pudendal” refers to the externally visible female genitalia and is limited to the labia majora, the labia minora, the clitoris and the vaginal vestibule.
- perineum refers to the external region of the female's body between the anus and the pudendal region while the term “gluteal groove” refers to the separation between the buttocks extending upwardly from the perineum.
- a female 10 is shown wearing a prior art menstrual short or panty 12 having a front portion 14, first and second leg openings 16 and 18, a rear portion 20, and an elastic waistband 24 for maintaining the menstrual short 12 on the female 10.
- the panty 12 can be any style, for example "bikini", “tanga”, “French cut” , American style, or Japanese menstrual shorts.
- a disposable catamenial pad 26 is shown positioned by the menstrual short 12 adjacent the perineum and pudendal regions ofthe female 10 in a conventional manner.
- menstrual short 28 is an improvement over prior art menstrual short 12 in view of the incorporation of a lifting mechanism into menstrual short 28 which is adapted to lift the catamenial pad 26 into enhanced contact with the female's pudendal and perineum regions and in the gluteal groove to provide sustained placement relative thereto under all motion and use conditions.
- a lifting mechanism into menstrual short 28 which is adapted to lift the catamenial pad 26 into enhanced contact with the female's pudendal and perineum regions and in the gluteal groove to provide sustained placement relative thereto under all motion and use conditions.
- the menstrual short 28 includes an outer layer 30 defining the "shell" of the panty worn by the female wearer and an inner protective layer or gusset-type liner 32.
- outer layer 30 includes a front portion 14, a rear portion 20, leg openings 16 and 18, and an elastic waistband 24.
- the gusset-type liner 32 is attached to the outer layer 30 in the crotch area of the menstrual short 28 and extends from a region anterior to the vaginal vestibule of the female 10 toward the elastic waistband 24 in the rear portion 20 of outer layer 30. More particularly, the gusset 32 has a generally hour-glass shape and includes a front edge 34, a rear edge 36, and a pair of lateral edges 38 and 40.
- a lifting mechanism is provided between the gusset-type liner 32 and the outer layer 30 for lifting gusset 32 toward the perineum and gluteal groove while providing some degree of inter labial contact. More particularly, the lifting mechanism provides upward lift to the gusset 32 which, in turn, lifts the disposable catamenial pad 26 worn by the female 10 into her gluteal groove and against her perineum. As a result, leakage of menses from a rear portion of the catamenial pad 26 is avoided, thereby inhibiting the undesirable soiling ofthe menstrual short 28 and other surrounding clothing or bedding.
- the lifting mechanism is a ridge or cinch 42 that is shown in Figure 4 lifting the gusset-type liner 32 in an upward direction, as indicated by arrow "A".
- the cinch 42 is an elongate strip of an elastic material.
- the cinch 42 should be made of an elastic material requiring less that 800 grams of force to elongate 25%. A more preferred material requires less than 400 grams of force. A highly preferred material requires less than 200 grams of force.
- the cinch material is mounted in a elongation device for example an INSTRONTM.
- the cinch material is pulled until it breaks or tears using a gage length of 2.00" and a strain rate of 10'Vminute.
- the above force measurements ate taken at a 25% point on a force-elongation curve. Regardless of the specific material chosen, the cinch 42 should only provide sufficient upward lift to promote enhanced and sustained pad contact while preventing discomfort to the female 10 when worn.
- a first or front end 44 of the cinch 42 is shown attached at a front attachment location 46 to either the outer layer 30 or gusset-type liner 32 so as to be located within the front portion 14 of the menstrual short 28.
- a second or rear end 48 of the cinch 42 is shown attached at a rear attachment location 50 to either the gusset-type liner 32 or the outer layer 30 in the rear portion 20 of the menstrual short 28.
- the front and rear ends 44 and 48 of the cinch 42 are fixedly attached (i.e., sewn, adhesively bonded, etc.) at the front and rear attachment locations 46 and 50, respectively.
- the front attachment location 46 of the cinch 42 should be located at least anterior to the anus of the female 10 when worn. More preferably, the front attachment location 46 ofthe cinch 42 should be located adjacent the vaginal vestibule of the female 10 when worn. However, other front attachment locations 46 are readily apparent.
- the rear attachment location 50 of the cinch 42 should be located sufficiently high in the rear portion 20 ofthe menstrual shorts 28 to provide the upward lift required to bias the disposable catamenial pad 26 into the gluteal groove and against the perineum of the female 10.
- Positioning the rear attachment location 50 above the curvature of the buttocks of the female wearer 10 is typically sufficient to provide the desired amount of vertical lift. Positioning the rear attachment location 50 in close proximity to the waistband 24 is also desirable. However, other rear attachment locations 50 are readily apparent. It will be appreciated that the specific position of the rear attachment location 50 relative to the waistband 24 will vary depending on the style of the menstrual short and comfort of the female 10 when the menstrual short 28 is worn. Furthermore, the shape of the buttocks of the female 10, which varies according to ethnic background; also effects the positioning of the rear attachment location 50 relative to the waistband 24. From Figure 4, the opposite ends of cinch 42 are shown attached at front and rear attachment locations 46 and 48, respectively, to the outer layer 30.
- the cinch 42 can be attached to outer layer 30 in any suitable manner (i.e., sewn, adhesively bonded, hook and loop fasteners, etc.).
- the front and rear edges 34 and 36 of the gusset 32 are attached at 52 and 54 to the outer layer 30.
- cinch 42 is completely disposed and retained between gusset-type liner 32 and outer layer 30.
- the cinch 42 can initially be attached to the gusset 32 and then the gusset 32 and cinch 42 can be attached as a sub-assembly to the outer layer 30.
- Other ways of attaching the gusset 32 and/or the cinch 42 to the outer layer 30 will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art.
- the first and second lateral edges 38 and 40 of the gusset 32 can be attached to the outer protective layer in any suitable fashion, for example by sewing, adhesive bonding and the like.
- means are provided for positioning an intermediate portion 56 of the cinch 42 along a central portion 58 ( Figure 4) of the gusset 32.
- a loop or guide 60 can be secured to one of gusset 32 or outer layer 30 for receiving and retaining intermediate portion 56 of cinch 42.
- a rear view of the menstrual short 28 is shown folded flat along first and second lateral sides 62 and 64 thereof with various rear attachment locations 50 for the cinch 42 shown in greater detail.
- the rear attachment location 50 for the rear end 48 of the cinch 42 is preferably located at least 2.75 inches from a lowest portion 66 of the outer layer 30 when the menstrual short 28 is folded along the first and second sides 62 and 64, as shown at 68.
- the rear attachment location 50 is more preferably located at least six or seven inches from the lowest portion 66, as respectively shown at 70 and 72, when the menstrual short 28 is folded.
- a menstrual short 100 which includes a modified inner protective layer or gusset-type liner 102.
- the gusset-type liner 102 includes first and second lateral edges 104 and 106 which are attached adjacent to the leg openings 16 and 18 in any of the above-noted known methods.
- Front and rear portions 108 and 110 of the gusset-type liner 102 are respectively attached to the front portion 14 and the rear portion 20 of the menstrual short 100.
- An elongated stitched seam 112 is sewn into gusset-type liner 102 for lifting a center longitudinal portion 114 of gusset 102 in an upward direction, as indicated by arrow "B", and into the gluteal groove and against the perineum ofthe female 10.
- the front and rear ends 116 and 118 of stitched seam 112 need not extend fully to the distal ends 120 and 122 of the front and rear portions 108 and 110 of gusset-type liner 102.
- the stitched seam 112 lifts the center longitudinal portion 114 of gusset 102 because the menstrual short 100 stretches from the front portion 14 to the rear 20 when the female 10 puts the menstrual short 100 on.
- the stitched seam 112 can be made of elastic thread or a non- elastic thread to obtain a desired amount of lift. Similarly, the width, length and pattern of the stitched seam 112 can be varied to provide the requisite lift. While seam 112 is shown formed in a surface of gusset 102 so as to be adjacent outer layer 30, it is contemplated that a stitched seam could alternatively be sewn into the exterior surface of gusset 102.
- the thighs of the female wearer compress lateral outer edges 204 and 206 of the deformation element 200 causing a center portion 208 of the deformation element (indicated by dotted lines 210) to move in an upward direction similar to the direction indicated by the arrow "A" in Figure 4.
- the deformation element 200 can be located between the inner protective layer 32 and the outer layer 30.
- the deformation element 200 may be affixed to an outer or body-facing surface of the inner protective layer 32.
- the deformation element may also be affixed to an outer surface of the outer protective layer 30.
- the deformation element 200 should preferably extend between the first and second leg openings 16 and 18. If the panty or menstrual short 28 includes elastic around the leg openings 16, 18, the deformation element should extend and be attached just inside of the elastic.
- the deformation element should be greater than 2" in length. Preferably the deformation element has a length between 2.5" and 3.5".
- a first deformation element 216 having a "C"- shaped cross-section is shown.
- the center portion 208 moves in an upward direction indicated by arrow "D".
- the deformation element 216 biases the catamenial pad into the female's pudendal region, specifically into the gluteal groove and against the perineum. Labial contact may also be provided.
- a second deformation element 220 has a straight cross-section when in a relaxed state and a "W'-shaped cross- section when in a compressed state.
- Compression lines 224, 226, and 228 formed parallel to a length of the second deformation element facilitate bending into the 'W shape under lateral compression forces of the female's thighs during use.
- her thighs laterally compress the deformation element inwardly as indicated by arrows "E” in Figure 11B.
- the center portion 208 moves in an upward direction indicated by arrow "F".
- other shapes and sizes for the deformation element will be readily apparent.
- the deformation element can be made of a variety materials such as thin plastic films, foams, or scrims. Polyethylene foam may be used. Alternatively, 30 mil polyethylene film may be used. Preferably the material used substantially returns to its original uncompressed shape when the lateral compression force is removed. Preferably the material used is laterally displaced at least 0.25" when 0.25 pounds are applied to the lateral edges 204 and 206.
- menstrual shorts incorporating the present invention reduce soiling by providing enhanced body contact and sustained positioning of the catamenial pad under various body motions and user conditions. Additionally, the menstrual short or panty of the present invention may have a looser and more comfortable fit compared to prior art menstrual shorts while providing greater leakage prevention.
