156209, 156216, 156276, 119169, 119171
Abstract:
A process for preparing an animal incontinence device comprises: providing a base layer of tissue; applying a uniform layer of superabsorbent polymer particles to a major surface of the base layer of tissue; applying water to the base layer of tissue having the uniform layer of superabsorbent polymer particles thereon; applying a cover layer of tissue over the base layer of tissue having the uniform layer of superabsorbent polymer particles thereon, to form an absorbent layer assembly; passing the absorbent layer assembly between a heated nip roll and a laminating roll, to at least partially adhere together the cover layer of tissue, uniform layer of superabsorbent polymer particles, and base layer of tissue, to form an absorbent layer; inserting the absorbent layer intermediate a base layer of liquid-impervious polymer film and a top layer of porous, hydrophilic, woven or non-woven polymer fibers, to form an animal incontinence device assembly; and laminating together at least a portion of the animal incontinence device assembly.

Inventors:
Andrew Szypka - Curtice OH, US
International Classification:
A61F002/30
US Classification:
002410000

Absorbent Sleeve To Enclose A Limb And Absorb Seepage From A Cadaver

View page
US Patent:
20060010663, Jan 19, 2006
Filed:
Jul 18, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/183400
Inventors:
Andrew Szypka - Curtice OH, US
International Classification:
A61G 1/00
US Classification:
027028000
Abstract:
A sleeve to enclose and absorb seepage from a limb of a cadaver caused by trauma or the removal of such items as bones, tissue for grafting or the like, is disclosed. The sleeve is composed of a tube of a water impervious cover sheet, an absorbent layer which includes a superabsorbent material, preferably in a quantity sufficient to absorb at least 100 grams of 0.9% saline solution, and a layer of hydrophilic fibers, preferably in a quantity sufficient to absorb at least 25 grams of 0.9% saline solution. The water impervious sleeve, the absorbent layer and the hydrophilic fibers are adhered to one another to form a laminate. A resilient member operable to prevent leakage by urging an end of the tube against the limb of the cadaver is also disclosed, as is an extension of the tube to form a closed foot-like projection to prevent such leakage

Bariatric Absorbent Diaper

View page
US Patent:
20120296293, Nov 22, 2012
Filed:
Nov 10, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/373327
Inventors:
Alan A. Clifford - Marion OH, US
Andrew J. Szypka - Curtice OH, US
International Classification:
A61F 13/493
A61L 15/42
A61F 13/49
US Classification:
604367, 60438501, 60438516
Abstract:
A disposable, absorbent type-style diaper for bariatric incontinent users includes a non-woven top sheet, an absorbent core containing fluff and super absorbent polymer, a fluid-impervious backsheet (microporous) that covers at minimal the absorbent core at it's widest point, a non-woven backsheet layer that is glued to the fluid-impervious backsheet and the overlaying non-woven top sheet. The diaper will also contain standing leg-cuffs and elastomeric side panels (air-permeable). The design of the diaper is such that the rise of the diaper is significantly longer than normal diapers. This feature allows the diaper to fit bariatric wearers higher in the front belly area and maintains acceptable coverage on the backside. The non-woven top sheet and the non-woven backsheet are coated with an antimicrobial/anti-fungal compound that inhibits bacterial/fungi to grow on the surfaces of the diaper.

International Classification:
A01K 29/00
A01K 23/00
US Classification:
119161

Disposable Absorbent Moisture Management Dressing

View page
US Patent:
20130261587, Oct 3, 2013
Filed:
Mar 28, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/852311
Inventors:
Andrew J. Szypka - Curtice OH, US
Erin L. Johnson - Perrysburg OH, US
Judith L. Borcherdt - Sylvania OH, US
Assignee:
Principle Business Enterprises, Inc. - Dunbridge OH
International Classification:
A61F 13/00
US Classification:
60438501
Abstract:
A disposable, absorbent “moisture management” drain pad for use on IV sites, tracheotomy tube sites, chest tube sites, catheter sites, g-tube sites, and drain sites. The pads will protect drain sites/skin area around drain sites from exudates/drainage by absorbing large amounts of fluid and locking it into a super absorbent core that remains dry on the outer surface next to the skin/drain site. The drain pad will contain an ultra-thin core containing super absorbent polymer and two layers of tissue substrates, a water impervious hydrophobic nonwoven back sheet and a water pervious (hydrophilic) non-woven top sheet. Various materials can be substituted for these listed as long as they perform the required criteria need for the material.

Absorbent Product For Personal Use

View page
US Patent:
56371063, Jun 10, 1997
Filed:
Nov 17, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/342266
Inventors:
Winalee G. Mitchell - late of Phoenix AZ
Paul S. Rankin - Bowling Green OH
Andrew J. Szypka - Curtice OH
International Classification:
A61F 1315
US Classification:
604368
Abstract:
Several embodiments of an improved absorbent insert or core are disclosed. According to one embodiment, the insert comprises a fluff layer physically integrated to at least one layer of laminate consisting of at least one tissue layer and polymer powder secured to it and supported on it. The fluff layer and the laminate are embossed between rollers that physically integrate the two layers and produce transfer sites through which liquid is rapidly transferred into the fluff layer, away from a wearer. In another embodiment, an absorbent insert is produced by embossing a laminate between a smooth roller and a patterned roller and trimming and folding the embossed laminate to produce an insert with a central region with an exposed pattern of embossed depressions and, on each side of the central region, lateral regions with an exposed, smooth surface. According to another embodiment, an absorbent insert is produced by depositing super absorbent polymer powder on a portion of a layer of fluff, covering the powder with at least one tissue layer, and embossing the assembly to produce an integrated absorbent insert. According to another embodiment, an absorbent insert is produced by depositing super absorbent polymer powder on a portion of a layer of fluff, covering at least a portion of the fluff with polymer deposited thereon with at least one laminate layer, and embossing the assembly to produce an integrated absorbent insert.
