    Methods and Apparatus for Assembling Refastenable Absorbent Articles:

    U.S. Patent No. 9,636,263

    07.10.17
    Uwe Schneider, Cincinnati, OH.
    Assigned to The Procter & Gamble Company, Cincinnati, OH.

    Filed: 3/10/14
    Issued: 5/2/17

    A method for assembling refastenable absorbent articles, each absorbent article comprises a chassis having a topsheet, backsheet, and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet, wherein the chassis defines a first waist region longitudinally opposed to a second waist region, and having a longitudinal axis and a lateral axis, each absorbent article further comprising a first waist belt connected with the first waist region and a second waist belt connected with the second waist region, wherein a first discrete fastener component joins first end regions of the first and second waist belts and a second discrete fastener component joins second end regions of the first and second waist belts, the method comprising the steps of: advancing a continuous length of chassis assemblies in a machine direction; cutting the continuous length of chassis assemblies into discrete chassis; advancing the discrete chassis in the machine direction onto a carrier apparatus, wherein the carrier apparatus comprises a frame rotatable about an axis of rotation, and a transfer member connected with the frame, wherein the transfer member is rotatable about a second axis of rotation that is orthogonal to the first axis of rotation, wherein the transfer member has a first portion and a second portion, wherein the topsheet of the discrete chassis contacts the first portion of the transfer member; advancing a continuous length of fastener assemblies in the machine direction; cutting the continuous length of fastener assemblies into discrete fastener components, wherein each discrete fastener component define a first surface and a second surface, each discrete fastener component comprising a first end region and an opposing second end region separated by a central region; and advancing the discrete fastener components in the machine direction onto the carrier apparatus, wherein the second surface of the discrete fastener component contacts the second portion of the transfer member, wherein the discrete fastener component is positioned adjacent to the chassis.
