Many vendors in Henan were sued for selling wire scrapers. What is the reason for being sued?

Many vendors in Henan were sued for selling wire scrapers. The reason for being sued was that Wei Peng claimed that they were infringing, and these wire scrapers were the patents of plaintiff Wei Peng, so the vendors sold wire scrapers, which infringed the plaintiff's appearance patent right, so they were brought to court. As far as we know, the plaintiff suing them is Wei Peng. If they want to continue to sell this kind of wire brush, they will compensate Wei Peng for the infringement fee of 20,000 yuan. Merchants naturally cannot understand this kind of lawsuit. After all, the wire scraper has been sold for many years. How did it suddenly become an infringement?

1. Merchants selling steel wire scrapers in Henan were sued. Scrapers are also called scrapers in some places in Henan Province. They are used to cut radishes. They can often be seen in winter in the north. After scraping radish, it can be used to wrap jiaozi, which is very convenient, so the sales of scraper are good. But the wire cutters were suddenly sued by a man named Wei Peng.

Second, Wei Peng claimed that the scraper infringed the patent right of appearance. According to the investigation, on 20 16, Peng Weishen applied for a patent for appearance. The content of this patent is: there is an iron plate in the middle for drilling holes, and there is a wooden frame and handle around it. This simple description and picture was patented, and it was also named silk scraper. In addition to the scraper, there are slicers, cut flowers and so on. I didn't expect our common radish eraser to become someone else's patent.

Third, this incident caused dissatisfaction among netizens. When the reporter called Peng Wei, he also said that there was no such thing before 20 16. This sentence made netizens laugh. If not, what should be the name of the radish wipe that has been used at home for decades? It is good to apply for a patent and know how to protect rights, but it is wrong to touch porcelain. We encourage safeguarding our legitimate rights and interests according to law, but we should also stand on the basis of facts.
