A barrier leg cuff having a first edge and a second edge is provided. At least one of the edges of the barrier cuff is maintained parallel to the longitudinal centerline of the absorbent article. The barrier cuff is then bonded to the absorbent article along a juncture line that extends in a curved configuration with respect to the longitudinal centerline of the absorbent article.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed February 13, 1997 and granted July 2, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended February 13, 2017.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by February 13, 2019.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
