Abstract:
1. A male incontinence guard, comprising a transverse and a longitudinal direction, said guard being divided by a transverse dividing line into a front region with a front transverse edge and a rear region with a rear transverse edge, said guard having an essentially triangular shape and tapering towards the rear transverse edge so that the front region is wider in the transverse direction than the rear region, a garment-facing surface of the guard comprises a first and a second strand of adhesive, the first and second strands being on different sides of the transverse dividing line such that the first and second strands are separated from each other, said first strand of adhesive being located in the front region of the guard, said first strand extending in the transverse direction more than the first strand extends in the longitudinal direction, a front transverse edge of the first strand being located between 5-40 mm from the front transverse edge of the guard, and a rear transverse edge of the first strand being located between 5-50 mm from the transverse dividing line of the guard, said first strand having an extension in the transverse direction of 70-170 mm; said second strand of adhesive being located in the rear region of the guard, said second strand extending in the longitudinal direction more than the second strand extends in the transverse direction, a front transverse edge of the second strand being located between 5-50 mm from the transverse dividing line of the guard, and a rear transverse edge of the second strand being located between 5 -50 mm from the rear transverse edge of the guard, said second strand having an extension in the transverse direction of 5-60 mm; wherein the rear transverse edge of the second strand is the farthest extent rearward in the longitudinal direction of any strand of adhesive in the rear region of the article, and the length of the rear transverse edge of the second strand is less than the length of the rear transverse edge of the first strand.
