Personal Care Articles With Reduced Polymer Fibers

US Patent:
6642429, Nov 4, 2003
Filed:
Jun 26, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/603278
Inventors:
Julia Carter - Tampa FL
Darryl Franklin Clark - Alpharetta GA
Bryan David Haynes - Cumming GA
Matthew Boyd Lake - Alpharetta GA
Caroline L. Miller - Zachary LA
Kevin Edward Smith - Highlands Ranch CO
Ty Jackson Stokes - Suwanee GA
Jeffrey Lawrence McManus - Canton GA
Assignee:
Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc. - Neenah WI
International Classification:
A61F 1315
US Classification:
604367, 604369, 604370
Abstract:
A personal care absorbent article made of a nonwoven material having a plurality of polymeric fibers having a fiber interior comprising at least one of a liquid fluid and a gaseous fluid. The nonwoven materials are produced by heating at least one polymer to a melting point, forming a molten polymer; extruding the molten polymer through a plurality of capillaries, injecting a liquid fluid and/or a gaseous fluid into the molten polymer prior to, during and/or after the extruding step, forming a plurality of fluid-filled polymeric fibers, wherein the liquid fluid and/or gaseous fluid is dispersed within the interior of the polymeric fibers, and depositing the fluid-filled polymeric fibers onto a web forming surface, forming a nonwoven material.

Manufacturing Scheduling Process With Improved Modeling, Scheduling And Editing Capabilities For Solving Finite Capacity Planning Problems

US Patent:
6415196, Jul 2, 2002
Filed:
Aug 28, 1998
Appl. No.:
09/143545
Inventors:
Myrick D. Crampton - Greenwood Village CO
James L. Roadifer - Highlands Ranch CO
Kevin J. Smith - Highlands Ranch CO
John K. Willoughby - Littleton CO
Assignee:
Manugistics, Inc. - Rockville MD
International Classification:
G06F 1900
US Classification:
700100, 700106, 709104
Abstract:
A method for solving finite capacity problems such as how to satisfy a customers request for a manufactured product, by describing the environment in which the problem exists in the form of a demand (e. g. , customer order), including the available resources for satisfying the demand, defining the demand, selecting a plan for achieving the various objectives of the demand in an optimal order, and evaluating whether the plan will work. Also disclosed is a computer program product implementing the invention, and a system for coordinating multiple sources of input into a system implementing the disclosed invention.

Fine Denier Multicomponent Fibers

US Patent:
6878650, Apr 12, 2005
Filed:
Dec 20, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/742830
Inventors:
Darryl Franklin Clark - Alpharetta GA, US
Justin Max Duellman - Little Rock AR, US
Bryan David Haynes - Cumming GA, US
Jeffrey Lawrence McManus - Canton GA, US
Kevin Edward Smith - Highlands Ranch CO, US
Assignee:
Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc. - Neenah WI
International Classification:
D04H001/00, D04H013/00, D04H003/16
US Classification:
442340, 442361, 442364, 442401
Abstract:
A method is provided for producing fine denier multicomponent thermoplastic polymer filaments incorporating high melt-flow rate polymers. Multicomponent filaments are extruded such that the high melt-flow rate polymer component is substantially surrounded by one or more low melt-flow rate polymer components. The extruded multicomponent filament is then melt-attenuated with a significant drawing force to reduce the filament diameter and form continuous, fine denier filaments.
