摘要:
A playing field that utilizes a conventional baseball diamond includes, beginning at the back of the infield, arcuate segments lined off in the outfield to create scoring zones. The last line or the field's boundary fence is the home run zone. Additionally, a plurality of vertical hoops are placed at selected locations in the playing field with the opening of the hoop facing home plate.A hitter scores points for hitting the ball on the fly into a particular segment of the playing field. The farther the hitter can hit the ball of the fly, the more points the player can score. The hitter receives the most points for hitting the ball over the last boundary line or over the boundary fence--a home run. The player also receives points for hitting the ball through one of the vertical hoops. The ability of the hitter to achieve points for hitting the ball through the vertical hoops creates parity between the placement hitter and the home run hitter.
摘要:
A wet wipe which is elastic in at least one direction, and includes an elastic sheet having at least one non-elastic non-woven web joined thereto at least at two areas. The non-elastic web is gathered between said two areas and a liquid is distributed within the sheet and/or the web. The sheet is preferably a nonwoven web or meltblown ethylene vinyl acetate fibers and the non-elastic web is preferably a nonwoven web of spunbonded fibers. The liquid may include a fragrance and/or a preservative. An arrangement for dispensing an interleaved stack of the wet wipes is also provided.
摘要:
An elastic laminate which includes a first elastic sheet having at least one other elastic sheet joined thereto. The first elastic sheet is formed from an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer. The second elastic sheet is formed from a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer. The sheets may be nonwoven webs of meltblown fibers.

A textured coform nonwoven web is provided that includes a matrix of meltblown fibers and an absorbent material. The coform nonwoven web is textured in that it includes first offsets that extend from the coform web. Further, the first offsets are themselves textured in that upper surfaces of the first offsets include a foundation texture. A continuous region from which the offsets extend further includes a secondary texture that may or may not be different from the foundation texture. The offsets may further include side walls that include a side wall texture. The side wall texture may or may not be different than both the foundation texture and the secondary texture.
摘要:
A coform nonwoven web that contains a matrix of meltblown fibers and an absorbent material is provided. The meltblown fibers are formed from a thermoplastic composition that contains at least one propylene/α-olefin copolymer of a certain monomer content, density, melt flow rate, etc. The selection of a specific type of propylene/α-olefin copolymer provides the resulting composition with improved thermal properties for forming a coform web. For example, the thermoplastic composition crystallizes at a relatively slow rate, thereby allowing the fibers to remain slightly tacky during formation. This tackiness may provide a variety of benefits, such as enhancing the ability of the meltblown fibers to adhere to the absorbent material during formation of the coform web. In certain embodiments, the coform web may also be imparted with texture using a three-dimensional forming surface. In such embodiments, the slow crystallization rate of the meltblown fibers may increase their ability to conform to the contours of the three-dimensional forming surface. Once the fibers crystallize, however, the meltblown fibers may achieve a degree of stiffness similar to conventional polypropylene, thereby allowing them to retain their three-dimensional shape and form a highly textured surface on the coform web.
摘要:
Biocontrol agents are disseminated for the control of pests using a device which directs a flying insect through a biocontrol agent and out of the device. The device provides separate entry and exit openings which allow the surface contaminated insect to ultimately lethally infect the F.sub.1 larvae.
摘要:
A method for attaching a composite elastic material to a gatherable article including the steps of stretching a composite elastic material; compressing said stretched composite elastic material to temporarily inhibit recovery of the composite elastic material; and attaching said temporarily inhibited composite elastic material to a gatherable article at least at two locations. Additionally, the temperature of the temporarily inhibited composite elastic material may be increased to facilitate recovery of the composite elastic material to within about 80 percent of its pre-stretched dimensions.
摘要:
A sanitary napkin having an absorbent batt which is folded along each longitudinal edge is provided. Malodor counteractant means are positioned between the folded absorbent layers.
摘要:
A tampon having an absorbent core with two fluid permeable wraps is provided. The combination of two wrapping layers aids in withdrawal particularly when a superabsorbent material is used as part of the absorbent and also may aid in the prevention of reverse fluid flow from the saturated tampon.
