* * * * * Now let’s have some conclusions of today’s presentation. The first one is, of course, to bear in mind that if there were no IP rights, there will be no cards to play against the competitor. Establishing IP rights properly will save money for a company ultimately, if not earning. For companies entering China, they should be prepared to face infringement claims. Any agreements involving IP should be handled with care, otherwise, it will be very difficult to control the licensed parties. There are two points I have not covered in the slides. One is IP budgeting. For companies that heavily rely on IP to protect their business, it is advisable to set aside about 10 to 15% of their revenue to handle their IP issues. Other companies can have a lower percentage, but no budgeting at all will create difficulties. Finally, the quality of your IP partner in China will certainly influence the value of your IP portfolio. The goal of our firm is to help our clients to make money. Therefore, if we have a weak case, we will honestly tell our client as experiences told us that this is the best way to protect the client’s interests. * * 审查指南P312页中指出了五种公开不充分的情形： 其中 (1)(2)(4)三种情形属于不能实现的情形； (3)属于能够实施但不能够解决技术问题 (5)属于能够实施但无效果数据(同样属于不能够解决技术问题) A26.4有关支持的问题实际上是“有没有”的问题，参见指南P144 R20.2实际上是“能不能”的问题，即判断所概括的技术方案能不能解决发明所要求解决的技术问题 * * * 单一性判断应注意的问题 ……就是要看权利要求中记载的技术方案的实质性内容是否属于一个总的发明构思，即判断这些权利要求中是否包含使它们在技术上相互关联的一个或者多个相同或者相应的特定技术特征。这一判断是根据权利要求的内容来进行的，必要时可以参照说明书和附图的内容(P190) * * 判断单一性应注意的问题 1.相同和相应特定技术特征的判断 技术效果→相应特定技术特征 2.特定技术特征的判断标准-创造性 3.单一性判断中的特定技术特征 * * 单一性性的判断方法 1、技术问题—相关联？ 2、特定技术特征—单一性？ 注意： 相应特定技术特征的判断 * * EP0808138(专利) 用于治疗血管疾病的器具，该器具是利用导管(catheter)以传送到身体里特定的位置以堵塞血管 * * 权利要求1 clamps (15) are adapted to clamp the strands at opposed ends of the device * * 竞争对手 只是一头夹持(clamp)，另一头是用焊接的方式 * * 说明书中公开—保护？ 在说明书中，有说明焊接可以是夹持的一个替代方案 决定: “夹持”就是夹持的意思，不应该拓展到包含焊接的解释，权1限定的是两头都要被夹持(A59) 说明书内说明焊接可以是夹持的一个替代方案更加明确了夹持和焊接的意思是不同的(在说明书中公开不等于获得保护) 专利权人在权1的用语是自愿的行为(合同条款缺陷) 故此
