"Patent pirate" ramps up LED lighting industry

The plagiarism in the lighting LED lighting industry has provided a certain ground for the emergence of "patent pirates." Because there are many plagiarisers, a single patent can simultaneously strike against multiple infringers and obtain huge compensation, creating a chain of rights protection industry. At the legal level, the "patent pirate" phenomenon is a kind of "legal" robbery that uses laws and the ubiquitous counterfeiting of Chinese companies! "Patent pirates" are they wrong? Let us listen to the LED lighting business voice.

"Patent Piracy" Becomes "Legal" Robbery

Huizhou Palander Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. KA Project Manager Chen Zhewei

Lighting industry plagiarism copied the wind, personally think that there are three reasons: First of all, plagiarism can be low-cost product development, to see others in the plagiarism, he also plagiarism; followed by a large messy lighting market, so that plagiarism becomes an open secret, many companies follow the flow; The third is that enterprises’ awareness of knowledge products is not strong enough. There is a sense of luck and that there are so many products in the market. Even if it is plagiarism, it may not necessarily be subject to legal sanctions.

At the legal level, the "patent pirate" phenomenon is a kind of "legal" robbery that uses laws and the ubiquitous counterfeiting of Chinese companies! Why do I describe it as "legitimate"? Because the law does protect patents and protect intellectual products, only China's current legal system on intellectual property rights is not yet sound! And corporate intellectual property awareness is weak! So also gave patent pirates an opportunity to take advantage of it!

At a reasonable level, patent pirates use the legal barrier to make unfair claims or even extortions and swindles on companies that have copied patents. This is an immoral act that is no different from robbery! However, if companies want to avoid such robbery under the protection of the law, they must strengthen their awareness of intellectual property rights. Do not be fortunate enough to do a good job of enterprises, lay a good foundation, and produce good products, so that the entire lighting products will be healthy development.

At present, the company has developed and owned more than 10 patents, and more product patents are also in the application. When others infringe on the company's patents, depending on the severity of the circumstances, if it is a small project, we will make an official warning. If we are involved in major projects, brand reputations, and major corporate interests, we will certainly resort to the law!

Imitation of difficult patents

Director of Dongguan Baohui Lighting Market Li Chaoyang

Counterfeiting outside the country is the most troublesome thing for companies to maintain their patent rights. The reason why it is overwhelming and unstoppable is simply that it is hard to prevent. It is because it is easy to get the fruits of other people's labor through counterfeiting, and the price paid is very small. Many times it is Have to let it go.

Paying attention to intellectual property rights is necessary, and branding cannot be without patents. Baohui has always attached great importance to intellectual property rights. Nearly 100 kinds of patents are approved every year. They are all the efforts and achievements of Baohui's R&D. Of course, they do not want others to copy it. However, Baohui's things are all fine, and counterfeiters can hardly be realistic. They can draw tigers and do not become anti-type dogs. It is impossible to copy a real Baohui. Knowing what people can do can tell the difference between them. Finally, Baohui. Because the real thing is more certain, patents naturally deserve more attention. Although possessing a patented intellectual property can not block and punish counterfeiting, it can prevent people with malicious intentions from using patents as an excuse to crack down on themselves. Otherwise, it will inevitably lead to “patent pirates”.
