PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a disposable diaper with a pleasant texture.SOLUTION: A disposable diaper has a length direction and a width direction which intersects with the length direction. The disposable diaper is characterized by having an absorbent body which absorbs liquid, side flaps which are located on both sides in the width direction, and a stretchable member which stretches along the length direction. Edge sections on the outer sides of the side flaps in the width direction are provided with wavy sections, in which protrusions protruding on the outer side in the width direction and recesses recessed on the outer side in the width direction are repeated alternately in the length direction. In the width direction, the stretchable member is provided either at an inner position which is located inward from the most recessed point of the recesses by the top-bottom distance in the width direction between the most recessed point and the most protruding point of the protrusions, or further inward than the inner position.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】良好な肌触りを有する使い捨ておむつを提供する。【解決手段】長手方向と、前記長手方向と交差する幅方向と、を有した使い捨ておむつであって、液体を吸収する吸収体と、前記幅方向の両側部に位置するサイドフラップと、前記長手方向に沿って伸縮する伸縮部材と、を有し、前記サイドフラップの前記幅方向外側の端縁部は、前記幅方向外側に凸となった凸部と前記幅方向外側に凹となった凹部とが前記長手方向において交互に繰り返される蛇行状の蛇行状部分を備え、前記伸縮部材は、前記幅方向において、前記凹部の凹部頂点から、前記凹部頂点と前記凸部の凸部頂点との前記幅方向における頂点間距離だけ内側に位置する内側位置、又は、該内側位置よりもさらに内側に設けられていることを特徴とする。【選択図】図6
