Wings 43 and 44 are provided. Furthermore, the absorbent article 1 includes side sheets 41 and 42 provided outside the absorber 30 in the width direction W.

  The top sheet 10 is a liquid-permeable sheet that transmits liquid such as body fluid. The top sheet 10 covers at least the surface of the absorber 30. The top sheet 10 is not particularly limited as long as it is a sheet-like material having a structure that allows liquid to permeate, such as a nonwoven fabric, a woven fabric, a perforated plastic sheet, and a mesh sheet. Either natural fibers or chemical fibers can be used as the woven or non-woven material.

  Examples of natural fibers include cellulose such as pulverized pulp and cotton. Examples of the chemical fiber include regenerated cellulose such as rayon and fibril rayon, semi-synthetic cellulose such as acetate and triacetate, thermoplastic hydrophobic chemical fiber, or thermoplastic hydrophobic chemical fiber subjected to hydrophilic treatment. Examples of thermoplastic hydrophobic chemical fibers include single fibers such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), and polyethylene terephthalate (PET), fibers formed by graft polymerization of polyethylene and polypropylene, and composite fibers such as a core-sheath structure. Can be mentioned.

  Moreover, the surface sheet 10 which concerns on this Embodiment can be formed from one or more materials. For example, a woven fabric, a nonwoven fabric, a polymer film, a film nonwoven fabric laminate, etc., and combinations thereof can be included. Nonwoven fabrics include air-laid nonwoven webs, spunbond nonwoven webs, meltblown nonwoven webs, bonded carded webs, hydraulically entangled nonwoven webs, spunlaced webs, and the like, as well as combinations thereof. It is formed by any one of a dry method (a card method, a spunbond method, a melt blown method, an airlaid method, etc.) and a wet method.

  The nonwoven fabric may be formed by combining a plurality of methods among a dry method and a wet method. Examples of the method include thermal bonding, needle punching, and chemical bonding. In addition, the method of manufacturing a nonwoven fabric is not limited to the above-mentioned method. Examples of other suitable materials include bonded carded webs of rayon, polyester, polypropylene, polyethylene, nylon, or other thermally bondable fiber microperforated film webs, reticulated materials, etc., and combinations thereof Can do. These webs can be prepared from polymeric materials such as, for example, polyolefins such as polypropylene and polyethylene and copolymers thereof, generally polyesters containing aliphatic esters such as polylactic acid, nylon, or other heat-bondable materials.

  The back sheet 20 has substantially the same length as that of the top sheet 10. For the back sheet 20, a polymer film, a woven fabric, a non-woven fabric, etc., as well as combinations or constituent materials thereof can be used. The polymer film can be composed of polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, etc., as well as combinations thereof. Further, the polymer film can be micro-embossed, can have a printed design, a printed message to the consumer, and / or can be at least partially colored. Suitably, the back sheet may be a breathable microporous film. Moreover, it is preferable that the back sheet 20 is made of a material having flexibility that does not cause a sense of incongruity when worn.

  The absorber 30 includes hydrophilic fibers and pulp. The absorber 30 includes a lower layer absorber 31 and an upper layer absorber 32 stacked on the lower layer absorber 31. The upper layer absorber 32 is smaller than the lower layer absorber 31 in the longitudinal direction L and the width direction W. In addition, the lower layer absorber 31 and the upper layer absorber 32 may be comprised separately, and may be integrated. Moreover, the lower layer absorber 31 and the upper layer absorber 32 are bonded together by a hot melt adhesive.

The absorber 30 including the lower layer absorber 31 and the upper layer absorber 32 is formed of a material that can absorb body fluid such as menstrual blood. Suitable materials for the absorbent body 30 include, for example, cellulose, wood pulp fluff, rayon, cotton, and meltblown polymers such as polyester, polypropylene or coform. The absorbent body 30 may be formed by laminating hydrophilic fibers or powder by the airlaid method, an airlaid sheet obtained by forming hydrophilic fibers or powder into a sheet shape by the airlaid method, or a tissue (for example, It may be formed by placing pulverized pulp mixed with a superabsorbent polymer on a basis weight of 15 g / m ² ) and wrapping it with a tissue.

  The side sheets 41 and 42 can be selected from the same material as the top sheet 10. However, the side sheets 41 and 42 preferably have hydrophobicity or water repellency in order to prevent leakage of menstrual blood to the outside in the width direction of the absorbent article 1. Specifically, a spunbond nonwoven fabric, an SMS nonwoven fabric, etc. are mentioned. The side sheet constitutes a contact surface with the skin. For this reason, it is preferable to use an air-through non-woven fabric in order to reduce rubbing irritation to the skin.

  The side sheets 41 and 42 are disposed on both sides of the top sheet 10. The side sheets 41 and 42 cover a part of the side edge of the absorber 30 and the wing parts 43 and 44. In the absorbent article 1, the periphery of the surface sheet 10, the side sheets 41 and 42, and the back sheet 20 is joined, and the absorber 30 is enclosed. As a method for joining the top sheet 10 and the back sheet 20, any one or a combination of heat embossing, ultrasonic waves, or hot melt adhesive can be used.

  In the back surface sheet 20, the adhesive 50 is apply | coated to the surface which contacts underwear (refer FIG. 2). The adhesive 50 is applied on the non-skin contact surface of the back sheet 20 after applying the adhesive on the non-skin contact surface of the back sheet 20 or after applying the adhesive to the packaging sheet 70 subjected to the peeling process on the entire surface. It is formed by transferring. A plurality of adhesives 50 are arranged in a stripe shape extending in the longitudinal direction L at the center in the width direction of the absorbent article.

  The adhesive 50 is also provided on the surface in contact with the undergarment in the wing part 43 and the wing part 44. In a state before use, the adhesive 50 is in contact with the packaging sheet 70, and the packaging sheet 70 prevents the adhesive from deteriorating before use. And the packaging sheet 70 is peeled by the wearer at the time of use. In addition, you may comprise so that an adhesive may deteriorate before use by peeling sheets consisting of papers other than the packaging sheet 70, etc. before use. In addition, a hot-melt-type adhesive agent can be used for an adhesive, for example.

  The packaging sheet 70 packages the absorbent article 1 individually. The packaging sheet 70 is a back surface 71 that is a facing surface facing the absorbent article 1 on the back sheet 20 side of the absorbent article 1 and a non-facing surface that does not face the absorbent article 1 and accommodates the absorbent article 1. And a surface 72 located outside in the state.

The material of the packaging sheet 70 is not particularly limited. For example, a plastic film such as polyethylene, polypropylene, or polyester, various films such as a nylon film, a breathable film stretched with a filler such as barium sulfate, or a nonwoven fabric. The film etc. which laminated | stacked are mentioned. The basis weight of the packaging sheet 70 is 10 to 50 g / m ² , preferably 12 to 30 g / m ² .

  Furthermore, the back surface of the packaging sheet 70 is subjected to a treatment that enables peeling without reducing the adhesive strength of the adhesive. As a processing method for making the pressure-sensitive adhesive peelable, a method of applying a release treatment agent to the entire surface of the packaging sheet 70 as a processing surface, heating and drying, or the entire back surface of the packaging sheet 70 as a processing surface by spraying For example, a method of forming a thin film by spraying a release treatment agent on the substrate. Examples of the release treatment agent include silicone resins, fluorine resins, octadecyl isocyanate resins and the like.

  The surface 72 of the packaging sheet 70 is a surface located outside when the absorbent article 1 is packaged by the packaging sheet 70, and is a surface visually recognized in FIGS. The surface 72 of the packaging sheet 70 is printed. FIG. 5 is a partially enlarged view of a portion B in FIG. In the packaging sheet 70, a first colored area A11 colored by the first color, a first non-colored area A12 not colored by the first color, a second colored area A2 colored by the second color, An uncolored area A3 in which neither the first color nor the second color is colored, and an overlapping area A4 colored with the first color and colored with the second color are provided.

  1st coloring area | region A11 is provided in the whole packaging sheet 70, and comprises the non-display element part 62 used as the background of the display element part 61 which consists of a pattern. The non-display element part 62 is a part other than the display element having a pattern or a character. The first non-colored region A12 constitutes the display element portion 61 that shows a star pattern and a heart pattern. The second colored area A2 is printed with a second color different from the first color. The second colored region A2 constitutes a display element portion 61 that shows a star pattern and a heart pattern. The first non-colored area A12 and the second colored area A2 have the same shape and are partially overlapped with each other.

  The display element unit 61 is configured to show display elements including a pattern and characters, and can show characteristics and applications such as performance of the absorbent article 1. The wearer can grasp the performance of the absorbent article 1 from the outside of the packaging sheet 70 when the absorbent article 1 is selected or when the absorbent article 1 is used. In addition, you may comprise so that the performance of an absorbent article, etc. may be shown based on the content (image and meaning of a pattern) of the display element of the display element part 61, or it may absorb based on the content and color of a display element. You may comprise so that the performance of an article | item etc. may be shown.

  In this way, by decorating the packaging sheet with a pattern or color and showing the performance of the absorbent article by the decoration, the absorbent article is taken out from the storage bag 201 (see FIG. 8) described later. 1, even when the absorbent article 1 is carried in a state where the absorbent article 1 is taken out from the storage bag 201, the wearer can keep the absorbent sheet 1 wrapped in the packaging sheet 70. Thus, it is possible to grasp and select the absorption performance of the absorbent article 1 such as whether it is a daytime absorbent article. In addition, compared with the case where it is expressed by characters or the like, it is not obvious that it is a sanitary napkin at a glance.

  Around the second colored region A2, a non-colored region A3 and an overlapping region A4 are provided. The non-colored area A3 is an uncolored area, and the color of the packaging sheet 70 is shown. The non-colored area A3 is arranged along the outline of the second colored area A2. The overlapping area A4 is an area where the first color and the second color overlap, and is darker than the first color and darker than the second color.

  Thus, by arranging the non-colored area A3 along the outline of the second colored area A2, the colors of the colored first colored area A11 and the second colored area A2 and the non-colored area A3 are colored. Depending on the contrast, the first colored area A11 and the second colored area A2 can appear to float, and the display element can be represented in a three-dimensional manner in a pseudo manner. In addition, since the overlapping area A4 is arranged along the outline of the second colored area A2, the outline of the second colored area A2 can be made darker and shaded by color contrast, as if it is three-dimensional. The display elements can be shown as formed.

  By expressing the display element three-dimensionally, the texture of the packaging sheet 70 itself can be improved, and the package 100 of the absorbent article can be made to look like a cloth such as a handkerchief in the packaged state. Moreover, since the display element is represented in three dimensions by color contrast without performing embossing for three-dimensional decoration on the packaging sheet itself, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of problems due to peeling of the adhesive or the like.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the first non-colored region A <b> 12 is provided at the center in the width direction W of the absorbent article 1 and at both ends in the width direction W of the absorbent article 1. The second colored region A2 is disposed so as to partially overlap the first non-colored region A12 located in the center in the width direction W, and overlaps the first non-colored region A12 located at both ends in the width direction W. Not placed in. That is, the first non-colored region A12 located at both ends in the width direction is not colored by the second color, and becomes the non-colored region A3. The first non-colored region A12 located at the center in the width direction and the first non-colored region A12 located at both ends in the width direction are different. Therefore, the decoration patterns of the plurality of first non-colored regions can be made different, and the decorativeness can be improved.

  The overlapping region A4 and the first non-colored region A12 are arranged in the longitudinal direction L so as to be sandwiched between the second colored region A2. Overlapping areas A4 and non-colored areas A3 are arranged at both ends in the longitudinal direction L of the second colored area A2. The overlapping area A4 is provided at the opposite end of the non-colored area A3. By providing the overlapping region A4 and the non-colored region A3 in this way, the color of one end with respect to the second colored region A2 can be lightened, and the color of the other end can be darkened. The display elements can be shown three-dimensionally by adding light and shade.

  The color to be colored on the packaging sheet conforms to, for example, the International Lighting Commission (Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage) L * a * b * color space (hereinafter “CIELab”) described in Special Table 2008-507385 You may comprise. CIELab is a mathematical tristimulus color scale based on the CIE 1976 standard. CIELab makes it possible to describe colors quantitatively and accurately. CIELab allows colors to be plotted in a three-dimensional space similar to Cartesian xyz space. CIELab is originally an x-axis and has colors from green to red in Cartesian coordinate xyz space. CIELab considers this axis as the a-axis. A negative a * value represents green and a positive a * value represents red. CIELab is originally a y-axis and has colors from blue to yellow in Cartesian coordinate xyz space. CIELab considers this axis as the b-axis. Negative b * values represent blue, and positive b * values represent yellow. CIELab is originally z axis in the Cartesian xyz space and has lightness. CIELab considers this axis as the L axis. The L * axis ranges from 100 to 0, where 100 is white and 0 is black. An L * value of 50 represents an intermediate gray (provided that a * and b * are 0). Any color may be plotted in CIELab according to the three values (L *, a *, b *).

  Three-dimensional CIELab makes it possible to calculate three color components: saturation, hue, and lightness. In a two-dimensional space formed from the a-axis and b-axis, the hue and saturation components can be determined. Saturation is the relative saturation of the perceived color and is determined by the distance from the origin when measured in the a * b * plane.

  For example, a color having an a * b * value (10, 0) exhibits a lower saturation than a color having an a * b * value (20, 0). The later color is qualitatively perceived as red than the previous color. Hue is the relative red, yellow, green, and blue of a particular color. A radius can be created from the origin to any color in a two-dimensional a * b * space. Hue is the angle measured from 0 ° (positive a * axis) to the created radius. The hue can be any value from 0 ° to 360 °. The brightness is determined from the value of L *, with higher values being whiter and lower values being blacker.

  The color difference ΔE, which is a color difference, can be obtained based on the following equation, for example. ΔE = ((ΔL *) square + (Δa *) square + (Δb *) square) 1/2 power. Here, L is lightness, a * is the coordinate of the red-green axis, and b * is the coordinate of the yellow-blue axis. By measuring the color difference with respect to the reference color, the first and second colors printed on the packaging sheet or the like can be specified.

  The color difference can be measured, for example, by the following method. Specifically, first, white L * a * b * as a reference color is measured using a color difference measuring device (for example, CR-300 manufactured by Konica Minolta). In the present embodiment, a C light source (a standard of the International Commission on Illumination (CIE)) is used as a light source of a measuring instrument. The diameter of the measurement window of the measuring instrument is 10 mm. In addition, a white reference plate (Y92.0 × 0.3145 y0.3198) was used as a reference color when measuring the color difference. Here, Y is a value indicating brightness, and x and y are plane coordinates of chromaticity.

  Next, the measured value (L * a * b *) measured is set as a reference color. Next, a sample packaging sheet (color difference measurement target) is placed on the white reference plate, and L * a * b * of the color to be measured is measured. Thereby, the color difference of the measuring object with respect to the reference color can be calculated. If the color part of the sample to be measured is smaller than the measurement window of the measuring instrument, prepare a cut-out part of the predetermined part in advance and arrange it on the white reference plate so that there is no gap or overlap. To do.

  The color difference ΔE between the first color and the second color is desirably larger in order to improve the identification of the display element, and specifically, it is desirably 1 or more. When the color difference between the first color and the second color is 1 or more, the user can generally identify the first color and the second color. Furthermore, it is preferable that the color difference ΔE between the first color and the second color is 10 or more. When the color difference between the first color and the second color is 10 or more, the user can more clearly identify the first color and the second color, and the first color and the second color can be distinguished from each other. Display elements can be expressed more three-dimensionally by combination.

  It is desirable that the first color and the second color have a complementary color relationship. The complementary color relationship in the present embodiment refers to a color whose hue is in the range of 180 ± 45 degrees. Preferably, the range of ± 15 degrees tends to be darker when colors are superimposed. Specifically, for example, there are combinations such as green for red, orange for blue, and purple for yellow.

  The area of the overlapping region A4 is desirably 1% to 50% with respect to the area of the second colored region A2. By providing the overlapping region A4 in such a range, the outline of the display element can be made to stand out and a stereoscopic effect can be clearly obtained. Furthermore, preferably, the area of the overlapping region A4 is 10% to 33% with respect to the area of the second colored region A2. The area of the non-colored region A3 is preferably 1% to 50% with respect to the area of the second colored region A2. By providing the non-colored region A3 in such a range, the stereoscopic effect of the display element can be clearly displayed. Furthermore, it is preferable that the area of the non-colored region A3 is 10% to 33% with respect to the area of the second colored region A2.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the second color is arranged on the first color. At least the second color of the first color and the second color is configured to have light transmittance. Since the second color has light transparency, when the first color and the second color overlap, it can appear as if the second color and the first color of the lower layer are mixed. The lightness of the second color is configured to be lower than the lightness of the first color. Since the brightness of the second color is configured to be low, when the first color and the second color are overlapped, the second color and the first color of the lower layer can be easily seen.

  The packaging sheet 70 can be colored according to various known coloring techniques. Coloring includes, but is not limited to printing, coating, and impregnation. Examples of the printing method include letterpress printing, flexographic printing, gravure printing, offset printing, screen, and inkjet, but are not limited thereto.

  The absorbent article 1 and the packaging sheet 70 are configured to be folded with the surface sheet 10 of the absorbent article 1 inside at a predetermined folding position along the width direction W and the longitudinal direction L. Specifically, the packaging sheet 70 is folded via two longitudinal folds FL1 and FL2 along the longitudinal direction L, and is folded via width folds FW1 and FW2 along the width direction W. The longitudinal fold and the width fold are indicated by a one-dot chain line in FIGS. In a state where the absorbent article 1 is folded, one end portion in the longitudinal direction L of the packaging sheet 70 is adhered to the packaging sheet 70. The edge part of the packaging sheet 70 is stuck to a part of the packaging sheet 70 by the adhesive tape 75. The material for forming the adhesive tape 75 is a single layer film such as a polypropylene film or a polyethylene film, or a multilayer film in which a plurality of types of resin films are laminated.

  Next, a method for folding the absorbent article package 100 will be described. FIG. 6 is a perspective view schematically showing a folding process of the package 100 of the absorbent article. The folding process of the absorbent article packaging body 100 includes an absorbent article placing process, a first folding process, a second folding process, a joining process, and a third folding process.

  In the absorbent article placement step, the absorbent article 1 is disposed on the packaging sheet 70. The packaging sheet 70 and the back sheet 20 of the absorbent article 1 face each other. In addition, you may arrange | position the absorbent article 1 on the packaging sheet 70 of the dimension which wraps one absorbent article 1 separately, for example, a predetermined space | interval is provided on the packaging sheet continuous along a conveyance direction. You may comprise so that several absorbent articles may be arrange | positioned emptying. In the present embodiment, for convenience of explanation, a folding method will be described using a package of absorbent articles for packaging one absorbent article.

  In the first folding step, as shown in FIG. 6A, the packaging sheet 70 and the absorbent article 1 are elongated from the end region side including one end side of the absorbent article 1 in the width direction W. A first longitudinal fold line (see FIG. 1) FL1 along the direction L is folded inward from the base point. In the second folding step, as shown in FIG. 6B, the packaging sheet 70 and the absorbent article 1 are elongated from the end region side including the other end side of the absorbent article 1 in the width direction W. The second fold line FL2 (see FIG. 1) along the direction L is folded inward from the base point.

  Next, in the joining step, the absorbent article 1 folded back with the second longitudinal fold FL2 as a base point and the widthwise end of the packaging sheet 70 are bonded to the packaging sheet 70 via a hot-melt adhesive. By this step, the absorbent article 1 is individually packaged by the packaging sheet 70. The hot melt pressure-sensitive adhesive only needs to be arranged so that the widthwise end of the back surface 71 of the packaging sheet can be adhered to the front surface 72 of the packaging sheet.

  In this embodiment, the widthwise ends of the packaging sheet 70 folded back from the first longitudinal crease FL1 and the second longitudinal crease FL2 are bonded via a hot-melt adhesive. The end of the sheet 70 in the width direction may not be bonded. Moreover, you may adhere | attach the bonding method of the width direction edge part of the packaging sheet 70 by heat welding, crimping | compression-bonding, or ultrasonic welding.

  In the third folding step, as shown in FIG. 6C, the packaging sheet 70 and the absorbent article 1 have a first width along the width direction W from both ends in the longitudinal direction L of the absorbent article 1. The sheet is folded inward from the fold line FW1 and the second width fold line FW2 (see FIG. 1). By performing the above-described steps, the absorbent article packaging body 100 is folded and miniaturized.

  In addition, when folding back the packaging sheet 70 and the absorbent article 1 from both ends in the longitudinal direction L of the absorbent article 1, the packaging sheet 70 and the absorbent article 1 may be configured to be folded one by one from one end in the longitudinal direction L. However, both may be configured to be folded back from both ends in the longitudinal direction L.

  By folding in this way, the absorbent article 1 can be individually packaged compactly by the packaging sheet 70. By reducing the size of the absorbent article 1, when storing it in a bag such as an accessory case or a pochette, it does not occupy a large space for storing the bag, and can be easily carried. In addition, by packing the absorbent article 1 individually in a compact manner, it can be placed in the hand even when it is not folded when being carried in a toilet or the like during use, and can be kept from being seen by others. .

  As shown in FIG. 3, the display element part 61 located in the center in the width direction of the packaging sheet 70 is configured by the first non-colored region A12, and is located between the first longitudinal fold FL1 and the second longitudinal fold. To do. Moreover, the display element part 61 located in the width direction both ends of the packaging sheet 70 is comprised by 1st non-colored area | region A12 and 2nd colored area | region A2, and the width direction outer side or 2nd from 1st longitudinal fold FL1. It is located outside the longitudinal fold FL2 in the width direction.

  Therefore, in the state which folded the packaging sheet and the absorbent article along the 1st longitudinal fold, or the state folded along the 2nd longitudinal fold, it is located in the width direction outer side rather than the 1st longitudinal fold and the 2nd longitudinal fold. The display element portion is visible. This display element part is comprised by the 1st non-colored area | region.

  On the other hand, when folded along the width fold, the display element portion positioned between the first longitudinal fold and the longitudinal fold in the width direction is visible. This display element part is comprised by the 1st non-colored area | region and the 2nd colored area | region. That is, since the configuration of the display element portion can be made different between the state folded along the longitudinal crease and the state folded along the width crease, variations in the decoration mode can be increased.

  A display element portion 61 is provided on the first longitudinal fold FL1, and a non-display element portion 62 is provided on the second longitudinal fold FL2. The display element portion 61 of the packaging sheet 70 is disposed across the first longitudinal fold FL1 in the width direction W, and the first longitudinal fold is disposed among the side portions of the packaging sheet 70 in a state where the absorbent article 1 is packaged. The first side portion S1 is disposed over the first side portion S1. Therefore, in the folded state, display elements are attached to the inner side in the width direction and the outer side in the width direction with respect to the first side portion S1 (see FIG. 6), and a sense of depth can be given.

  In addition, the non-display element part 62 is arrange | positioned in 2nd side part S2 in which the 2nd longitudinal crease | fold is arrange | positioned among the side parts of the packaging sheet in the state which packed the absorbent article. Therefore, the decoration mode of the first side on the first longitudinal fold side and the second side on the second longitudinal fold side in the folded state can be made different, and absorption is performed depending on the angle that the user sees and the angle that the user has. The color and the pattern of the packaging body of the property article can be made different.

  Subsequently, a part of manufacturing method of the package of the absorbent article which concerns on this embodiment is demonstrated. Note that an existing method can be used as a method not described in this embodiment. In the manufacturing method of the absorbent article, the adhesive 50 is applied to the back surface 71 of the packaging sheet 70. This pressure-sensitive adhesive is, for example, a hot-melt adhesive, and has a property of becoming soft when heated. The back surface sheet 20 side of the absorbent article 1 is bonded so as to be in contact with the adhesive 50.

  In addition, the adhesive applied to the back surface of the packaging sheet is configured to be soft when applied to the back sheet. Therefore, when the absorbent article 1 is affixed on the packaging sheet 70, if unevenness is formed on the packaging sheet by embossing or the like as in the conventional packaging sheet, the adhesive applied to the back surface of the packaging sheet Is applied along the irregularities. However, since the pressure-sensitive adhesive hardens with time, it is in a state where air is taken in when it is attached to the absorbent article. The pressure-sensitive adhesive in the air remains on the packaging sheet side and may not be transferred to the absorbent article.

  However, since the packaging sheet according to the present embodiment is not uneven by embossing or the like, since the contact surface with the adhesive in the packaging sheet is smooth, the adhesive can be appropriately transferred, Occurrence of problems due to air biting can be suppressed. Moreover, the adhesive area of the adhesive of an absorbent article and a packaging sheet can be ensured, and the fall of the adhesive force of the adhesive of an absorbent article can be suppressed. Since the shift | offset | difference of an absorbent article and a packaging sheet can be suppressed, it is hard to expose the adhesive of the absorbent article before use.

  Moreover, the following method can be used for the printing method of a packaging sheet. FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram for explaining the printing method. Specifically, for example, the non-display element portion 62 of the packaging sheet is printed with the first color. FIG. 7A shows a state in which the non-display element portion 62 is printed with the first color. The non-display element part 62 is constituted by the first colored area A11 printed with the first color, and the display element part 61 is constituted by the first non-colored area A12 where the first color is not printed. The non-display element portion 62 is a white portion and is indicated by the color of the base material of the packaging sheet 70. Next, the display element unit 61 is printed with the second color. FIG. 7B shows a state in which the display element portion is printed in the second color on the packaging sheet that is not printed in the first color. The display element unit 61 is configured by the second colored region A2 printed in the second color. FIG.7 (c) has shown the state printed with the 2nd color with respect to the packaging sheet printed with the 1st color.

  When the first non-colored region A12 and the second colored region A2 have the same shape, for example, the first non-colored region A12 and the second colored region A2 are colored so as to be partially offset. Accordingly, the display element unit 61 is configured by the second colored area A2 printed by the second color, and the overlapping area A4 in which the first color and the second color are overlapped is formed along the outline of the second colored area A2. In addition to the arrangement, the first color, the second color, and the non-colored area A3 that is not printed can be arranged along the outline of the second colored area A2 to provide a three-dimensional decoration.

  In the case where the first non-colored area A12 and the second colored area A2 are similar, for example, the first non-colored area A12 and the second colored area A2 are colored so that they overlap. Accordingly, the display element unit 61 is configured by the second colored area A2 printed by the second color, and the overlapping area A4 in which the first color and the second color are overlapped is formed along the outline of the second colored area A2. It can be arranged to give a three-dimensional decoration.

  As a three-dimensional decoration, after the display element portion is colored with the first color, it can be colored with the second color along the outline of the display element portion of the first color. Furthermore, the color which colors a packaging sheet is not restricted to two colors, Three or more colors may be sufficient.
