Abstract:

A disposable absorbent article, e. g. , a diaper, feminine hygiene product, adult incontinent product, etc. , arranged to be worn by a wearer to trap and collect fluid waste products, e. g. , menses, feces and/or urine, of the wearer. The article has a flexible chassis and plural tabs for holding the diaper in place on the wearer. The chassis is made up of a top-sheet, a fluid absorbent core and a skin-treatment agent, e. g. , zinc oxide, vitamins A, D and E, allentoin, aluminum hydroxide, Calamine, dimethicone, glycerin, kaolin, shark liver oil, cod liver oil, zinc acetate, lanolin, mineral oil, zinc carbonate, talc, titanium oxides, silver oxides, and combinations thereof. The top sheet is formed of a fluid pervious material, e. g. , a fibrous material or a polymeric apertured three dimensional film. In one embodiment the agent(s) is(are) disposed on the surface of the top sheet which is located immediately adjacent the skin of the wearer when the article is in place, in another embodiment the agent(s) is(are) incorporated into the material making up the top sheet.

US Classification:

315307, 315152, 315297

Abstract:

A system and method involving lighting fixtures, a control network, a controller and other devices such as light sensors, input devices and network adapters for coordinating precise brightness and color schedules among the lighting fixtures while maintaining a high color reliability including provisions for managing a plurality of lighting fixtures. The lighting fixtures contain lighting elements selected such that when controlled properly, operating along a daytime locus, the resultant light output closely resembles sunlight on a cloudless day in spectral characteristics, and wherein the total flux of blue light can be adjusted from a relative level of 1-100% the maximum blue flux of the lighting fixture by controlling individual lighting elements.
