Extended data:

Patent right and patent protection: refers to the patent application filed with the State Patent Office, and after passing the examination according to law, the patent applicant is granted the exclusive right to enjoy the invention and creation within a specified time.

According to China's patent law, there are three kinds of inventions, namely, inventions, utility models and designs. After a patent for invention and utility model is granted, the patentee enjoys exclusive rights to his invention and creation. No unit or individual may exploit the patent without the permission of the patentee, that is, it may not manufacture, use, promise to sell, sell or import the patented product for production and business purposes. After the patent right of a design patent is granted, no unit or individual may exploit the patent without the permission of the patentee, that is, may not manufacture, sell or import the patented product for production and business purposes.

Without the permission of the patentee, the implementation of his patent will infringe his patent right and cause disputes, which shall be settled by the parties through consultation; Unwilling to negotiate or failing to do so, the patentee or interested party may bring a suit in a people's court or request the administrative department for patent affairs to handle it. Of course, there are exceptions to non-infringement, such as prior right to use and use for scientific research purposes. Patent protection adopts the protection mode of "two-way parallel and judicial guarantee" between judicial and administrative law enforcement.
