Absorbent devices, and more particu- larly absorbent devices that are worn inter- labially by female wearers for catamenial pur- poses, incontinence protection, or both, are dis- closed. The absorbent interlabial device of the present invention comprises a main absorbent portion comprising a pleated structure and a pair of flexible extensions joined to the main Image absorbent portion. The main absorbent por- tion comprises an upper portion, and a lower portion opposed to the upper portion. In use, the upper portion is positioned furthest inward into the space between the wearer's labia ma- jora. The pair of flexible extensions extends downwardly and laterally outward from the up- per portion of the main absorbent portion, and preferably is capable of maintaining contact with the inside surfaces of the wearer's labia majors when the wearer's body goes through a range of motions, including squatting. Additionally, the flexible extensions are preferably capable of covering the fingertips of the wearer as the absorbent device is inserted into the interlabial space.

La présente invention concerne des dispositifs absorbants et plus particulièrement des dispositifs absorbants portés, de manière labiale, par des utilisatrices à des fins cataméniales ou comme protection contre l'incontinence ou les deux. Le dispositif interlabial absorbant de la présente invention comporte une partie principale absorbante possédant une structure plissée et une paire de prolongements souples reliés à la partie principale absorbante. Ladite partie principale absorbante comprend une partie supérieure et une partie inférieure opposée à la partie supérieure. En cours d'utilisation, la partie supérieure est enfoncée à l'intérieur de l'espace situé entre les grandes lèvres de l'utilisatrice. Ces prolongements souples sont orientés vers le bas et disposés latéralement à partir de la partie supérieure de la partie principale absorbante et sont capables, de préférence, de maintenir le contact avec les surfaces internes des grandes lèvres de l'utilisatrice lorsque le corps de l'utilisatrice accomplit une série de mouvements y compris l'accroupissement. En outre, les prolongements souples sont, de préférence, capables de couvrir le bout des doigts de l'utilisatrice lorsque le dispositif absorbant est inséré dans l'espace interlabial.
