PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorbent article which further improves a soft feel to a skin, has an excellent cushioning property, and enhances continuity of the soft feel and the excellent cushioning property.SOLUTION: In an absorbent article, an absorbent layer 2 includes a plurality of absorbent layer protruding parts and absorbent layer recess parts obtained by integrally shaping a skin contact surface side and a skin non-contact surface side in a thickness direction, and has a concavo-convexo shape by arranging the absorbent layer protruding part 21 and the absorbent layer recess part 22 alternately and adjacently in different directions that intersect in a plane view. The skin non-contact surface side of the absorbent layer protruding part forms an arch 81, and a void part 41 is provided between the absorbent layer and a leakage preventing layer 3. A joint part 51 to the leakage preventing layer 3 is provided only on the skin non-contact surface side of the absorbent layer recess part which is arranged in a distributed manner in a plane view by connecting the arches. In the joint part, the absorbent layer 2 and the leakage preventing layer 3 are fused and joined by thermal adhesiveness of a thermally adhesive fiber 25, and in the void part, there is no means for joining the absorbent layer 2 and the leakage preventing layer 3.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】肌に対する柔らかな風合いをさらに向上させるとともに、良好なクッション性を備え、かつ、これらの柔らかな風合い及び良好なクッション性の持続性を高める吸収性物品を提供する。【解決手段】吸収層2は、肌当接面側及び非肌当接面側を一体的に厚み方向に賦形させた複数の吸収層凸部及び吸収層凹部を有し、吸収層凸部21及び吸収層凹部22が平面視交差する異なる方向において交互に隣接して配されて凹凸形状をなし、吸収層凸部の非肌当接面側はアーチ81を形成し、防漏層3との間に空間部41が配されており、前記アーチとアーチを繋いで平面視分散配置された吸収層凹部の非肌当接面側においてのみ、防漏層3との接合部51が配設されており、接合部においては、熱融着繊維25の熱融着性により吸収層2と防漏層3とが融着接合されており、空間部においては、吸収層2と防漏層3とを接合する手段が存在しない吸収性物品。【選択図】図3
