Absorber including by-pass channel member and absorber product therefrom
First Claim
1. An absorber comprising:
- a laminated absorbent member comprised of laminated two or more super-absorbent sheets, a first upper super-absorbent sheet of the super-absorbent sheets has an uppermost surface, each of said super-absorbent sheets containing a super-absorbent polymer capable of absorbing aqueous liquid, anda by-pass channel member which has a channel for moving aqueous liquid, fed to the uppermost surface of said first super-absorbent sheet, from the uppermost surface of the first super-absorbent sheet to another super-absorbentsheet of the super-absorbent sheets; and
wherein the by-pass channel member transports a portion of liquid disposed at the uppermost surface of the first super-absorbent sheet to said another super-absorbent sheet so that the portion of the liquid transported by the by-pass channel member to said another super-absorbent sheet is not absorbed by the first super-absorbent sheet, and the first super-absorbent sheet is closer to a skin of a user than the another super-absorbent sheet when the absorber is worn by the user,at least a part of the by-pass channel member is composed of a non-woven sheet member, air gaps inside thereof function as the channel for moving the aqueous liquid;
a part of the non-woven sheet member is positioned above the first super-absorbent sheet; and
another part of the non-woven sheet member is positioned either above the another super-absorbent sheet or under the laminated absorbent member or both.

Abstract
An absorber comprising a laminate of two or more layers of highly water-absorbent sheets each containing a highly water-absorbent resin in high proportion, which absorber can satisfactorily cope with the feeding speed of aqueous liquid. In particular, an absorber comprising a laminate water-absorbent member, the laminate water-absorbent member consisting of a laminate of two or more layers of highly water-absorbent sheets each containing a highly water-absorbent resin and capable of absorbing an aqueous liquid, and a by-pass channel member, the by-pass channel member having a channel for, providing that an upper side refers to the side of laminate water-absorbent member fed with the aqueous liquid, moving the aqueous liquid fed to a first highly water-absorbent sheet disposed at the uppermost part of the laminate water-absorbent member from the first highly water-absorbent sheet to another highly water-absorbent sheet.
