Some factories use other people's products, which is considered as infringement. Our company sent people to their company to take photos and collect evidence. Why does the patent office say there is no evidence to check?
This reflects the serious problem of ineffective patent protection in China for a long time. The final judgments of many patent infringement cases seen on the Internet are nothing. In many cases, even if the infringement is clearly determined, the infringer is only required to stop the infringement, and only the patentee's evidence collection fees and tax invoices are compensated. However, the punishment for patent infringers in the United States is very heavy, so American patentees don't always have to worry about what to do if their patents are infringed, which can really encourage innovation.
Poor patent protection is one of the important reasons why China lags behind other countries in many fields.
Call on the whole society, especially government departments, to realize the importance of this issue.
