Can trademark rights be regarded as patent rights?

Not exactly. Trademarks and patents belong to intellectual property rights. But the two are different. Trademarks and patents have no affiliation. The term of protection of trademarks and patents is different: the term of protection of patents is limited, which is 20 years for inventions and 10 years for new designs and designs, and cannot be renewed after the expiration. The trademark protection period is 10 year, and it can be renewed upon expiration, so as long as it is renewed once every 10 year, it can have the exclusive right to use the trademark indefinitely.
