PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorbent article, even when a skin of a wearer wearing the absorbent article moves along the width direction of the article, less likely to rub the skin against joining parts of a surface sheet with bottoms of recessed strips and against projecting strips, and hardly irritating the skin.SOLUTION: The absorbent article according to the present invention includes a longitudinal direction Y and a width direction Y. A surface sheet 2 includes: an upper-layer nonwoven fabric 1 having a recessed/projecting structure in which longitudinally-extending projecting strips 13 and recessed strips 14 are alternately formed in the width direction and a lower-layer sheet 6 that is joined with the upper-layer nonwoven fabric 1 at joining parts 14s formed at the bottoms of the recessed strips 14, where the projecting strips 13 have a hollow structure. An absorber 4 includes a plurality of longitudinal grooves 43, the skin contact surface side of which are opened and that extend in the longitudinal direction X, formed on a liquid-retaining absorbent core 40. The surface sheet 2 is so formed that the length Ls of the joining parts 14s is shorter than the length L3 of the vertical grooves 43, the joining parts 14s of the plurality of recessed strips are overlapped with parts in the width direction Y of the vertical grooves 43, and include spaces c between the joining parts 14s overlapped with the vertical grooves 43 and the bottoms of the vertical grooves 43.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2COPYRIGHT: (C)2017,JPO&INPIT【課題】着用中に着用者の肌が物品の幅方向に沿って移動しても、表面シートの凹条部底部の接合部や凸条部と肌との擦れが生じにくく、肌を刺激しにくい吸収性物品を提供すること。【解決手段】本発明の吸収性物品は、長手方向X及び幅方向Yを有し、表面シート2は、長手方向に延びる凸条部13及び凹条部14が幅方向に交互に形成された凹凸構造の上層不織布1と、凹条部14の底部に形成された接合部14sにおいて上層不織布1と接合された下層シート6とを具備し、凸条部13は中空構造を有する。吸収体4は、液保持性の吸収性コア40に、肌当接面側が開口した長手方向Xに延びる縦溝43が複数本形成されている。表面シート2は、接合部14sの長さLsが、縦溝43の長さL3より短く、複数本の凹条部の接合部14sが、縦溝43の幅方向Yにおける一部と重なり、縦溝43と重なる接合部14sと縦溝43の底部との間に空間cを有している。【選択図】図2
