A disposable liquid-absorbing article, such as a diaper (10), sanitary towel or similar, having a substantially longitudinal shape and including an absorption body (12) and a cover (11) enclosing the absorption body with a liquid-pervious inner sheet (17) and an outer sheet (18) and contracting elastics members (23) in contact with at least one of the sheets to give the article its shape in an in-use position. The cover sheet on which the elastics members are applied, is connected to the inside and outside of the absorption body respectively, and the elastics members (23) extend with at least one substantially continually curved portion (24, 25) over at least an area of the absorption body. The strive of the elastics members to contract and the contact of the elastics members with one of the sheets, exert a tension force on the sheet in a direction towards the curvature center of the elastics members, whereby this force is transferred and absorbed by the absorption body.

[ We claim:] [1.] A disposable liquid-absorbing article, such as a diaper or sanitary towel having a substantially longitudinal shape comprising;an absorption body with an inside facing inwardly and an outwardly facing outside,a cover enclosing the absorption body with a liquid-pervious inner sheet against the inside of the absorption body and an outer sheet against the outside of the absorption body, andcontracting elastics members in contact with at least one of the sheets to bring the article its shape in an in-use position,the cover sheet on which the elastics members are applied, is connected to at least one of the outside and the inside of the absorption body,said elastics members extend with at least one substantially continually curved portion over at least an area of the absorption body,said elastic members, by striving to contract and by their contact with one of said sheets exerts a tension force on said one sheet in a direction towards a centre of the curved portion, whereby this force is transferred and absorbed by the absorption body,the absorption body is made of a material which makes it easily bent but at the same time at least to a high extent resistant to compression by tension forces against the curved portion of the curved elastics members,the elastics members are applied with such a pre-stressing that said tension forces caused by the pre-stressing and the curvature radius deforms the article for the formation of a, in relation to the plane of the article, pool edge along the curved elastics, when bending of the article is initiated by the user.
