News investigation: violation of foreign well-known enterprises of domestic battery toys & gifts

Recently, the Guangdong Heng X trade mark Digital Camcorder Battery agency reports, McDonald’s, Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola and other well-known foreign enterprises in Guangdong Province Toys and Gifts infringing use of the new Lida battery (Deqing) Co., Ltd. battery of similar products, patents, while the use of toys such as McDonald’s gift The purchase channel, mainly toys Dongguan Tangxia a gift company, and Boral Pan Asia Electronics Co., Ltd. and so on.

China’s “Patent implementation of administrative measures,” 33rd stipulates that the administrative authority for patent department finds that the decision to handle the establishment of patent infringement, the infringer to immediately stop infringement, the infringer to court administrative proceedings, during the proceedings did not to stop its implementation. At the same time, the legal profession say, even if only did not produce infringing use batteries as their acts constitute infringement, if the McDonald’s and other well-known overseas companies known to be infringing products still in use, but also an act of patent infringement.

Patent has been infringed losses

According to a report claimed that the company’s officers and an investigation of a toy gift company, Dongguan Tangxia a salesman surnamed Peng to discuss processing of toys in the name of contact, the salesman took out four toys samples, McDonald’s said it was exported to foreign Digital Camera Battery countries Restaurant for gifts to consumers useful. Within these four toys are equipped with “PAKKO” trademark (Paco company) mercury-free button cell battery also contains “GREENCELL” (green battery) words.

March 28 this year, the Guangdong Provincial Intellectual Property Office law enforcement officers to Dongguan, a toy gift company Tangxia-site enforcement inspection found a number of one million of the company stock marked “PAKKO” trademark (Paco company) mercury-free button battery, and found that these are considered violations of the battery has been installed in the “prince charming”, “imitation of a cat,” “snail,” “Jellyfish” and other toys and games, in the scene, said the staff of the enterprise, these toys are for the McDonald’s processing production.

In the boro Pan Asia Electronics Co., Ltd., since 2006 is November 20, Huizhou Municipal Intellectual Property Office told the pan-Asian companies-spot and found that “PAKKO” sign A total of three mercury-free button batteries 1000; found that was producing the electronic watch movements and toys in the “PAKKO” Batteries 1000; and found in their bills of lading by the two PAKKO the quantity of batteries shipped a total of more than 4.226 million tablets. Pan-Asian companies a staff of law Canon Battery enforcement officials acknowledged that the toys sold in Europe and the United States market, others are gifts, some McDonald’s restaurants have been widely produced in the country as a gift.

In the pan-Asian company’s Web site, click on OEM orders for us to see the company produces a variety of toy gifts, samples, which branded cat toy on the McDonald’s label, OEM orders from the profile, such as Pepsi, Coca-Cola, Philips Pu and other famous brands are produced by using the pan-Asian toy gift.

Huizhou Municipal Intellectual Property Bureau, according to “a written decision” shows that the new Lida De Qing company had issued April 4, 2006 lawyer’s letter, so that pan-Asian companies not to re-use Paco company infringing batteries, because the , Zhaoqing City, Zhaoqing Office Intellectual Property Office made the word Case No. 2006, “a written decision on patent infringement disputes,” found Paco produced mercury-free button batteries indeed is a violation of the new company’s ZL0 123 Elite 4722. a patent patent; Guangdong Provincial Intellectual Property Office has also made 2006 the third number “written decision of administrative reconsideration,” to maintain the identified.

Huizhou Municipal Intellectual Property Office made the 2006 fourth case, “a written decision on a patent infringement dispute,” ordered the pan-Asian companies should immediately stop using the patent infringement “of mercury-free button-shaped battery products,” and the immediate destruction of all stocks This product

However, Paco and pan-Asian companies do not have to stop production and sales and use of infringing batteries, while McDonald’s and other companies Canon NB-2L are still entered to buy their toys with batteries for gifts infringing use, leading to a new patented Qing Li Dade’s loss is very serious, more than 10 million yuan each year.

The new company has been infringing Qing Li Dade common violations to prosecute companies in Guangzhou City Intermediate People’s Court, the hospital being heard.

Aloft the three-year battle to protect the patent lawsuit

It is reported that Guangdong will Paco is a 4 by 4 will be Yongli Metal Battery Co., Ltd. and Hong Kong, Paco Battery Co., Ltd. commissioned the production. This three companies with a total member of the owner group. Tober high commission company would be infringing the battery 4 Wynn has been at the company in December 2002 the State Intellectual Property Office of Patent Reexamination Board made a request to Reexamination Board to declare the new Qing Li Dade’s patent is invalid. At this point, the patentee took the arduous road to war to defend the patent.

In May 2004, the State Intellectual Property Office, the Patent Reexamination Board with a new patented product Lida button cell structure and has no substantive difference between the structure and its mercury-free alkaline manganese battery technology and cylindrical similar as the basis, Canon NB-2LH so out a declaration of “mercury-free alkaline button-shaped batteries” utility model patent is invalid decision.

Qing Li Dade dissatisfied with the new company, then to the Beijing Municipal No. 1 Intermediate People’s Court proceedings, the State Intellectual Property Office to court. During this period, China Battery Industry Association, October 13, 2004 in Beijing, organized by the trade and academicians, experts and professors, almost 20-member expert panel discussion will be, the group unanimously affirmed the patent novelty and creativity.

But the Court of First Instance is still made the decision to maintain the patent is invalid. In response, companies are still not satisfied with the new Qing Li Dade to continue to the Beijing Municipal Higher People’s Court of Appeal.

Early in 2005, the patent to the National People’s Congress Wang, reflect this, and through her to the leadership reflected concern. Beijing Higher People’s Court has also attached great importance to December 20, 2005 was made final: it removes the first-instance ruling and the State Intellectual Property Office of Patent Reexamination Board’s decision to maintain the name “mercury-free alkaline button-shaped batteries”, Patent No. bit 0 1234722. one of the utility model patent valid, see Takayuki final word first two No. 0 “executive judgments.”

Mercury-free alkaline battery patent on the button shape, such as “Tang Sengrou”

Overseas, Japan’s Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba, Hitachi, Seiko, Canon NB-3L etc. and the United States, Europe and other battery manufacturers of mercury-free button cell mercury-free overtaken by a large number of studies. However, there are technical problems are not resolved, there is no one company can successfully produce mercury-free alkaline button batteries, resulting in the global market has been the use of mercury-containing alkaline button batteries. It is reported that a New Zealand-style micro-mercury alkaline batteries can be contaminated water is 600,000 liters, equivalent to the amount of drinking water a person’s life. The new Lida De Qing company through years of R & D labs, in 2000 mastered the technical formula, use a layer of iron tablets add electroless nickel and copper, indium or tin plating and then success will be mercury-free alkaline button batteries, China and Hong Kong to obtain a patent licensing and patent applications handled in other countries. China Battery Industry Association, believes that mercury-free button cell battery industry, the world is a “landmark” of technological progress.

Many brands of electric vehicle batteries, Jinan, the majority of dealership prices do not raise prices

“Blue mussel electric cars have been price increases, and now a car battery price rises of about 30 more expensive than the yuan.” Zhejiang Blue mussel Vehicle Co., Ltd Jinan Sales Office Mr. Wang said that due to the price of metallic lead within six months rose by 40%, the electric a substantial increase in the cost of lead-acid battery vehicles, the manufacturers reluctantly raised ex-factory price. So far, the majority of electric vehicle distribution Jinan Branch also did not raise prices, but many brands of batteries have been Canon NB-4L price increases.

Stream can be battery, Shandong, Zhejiang Jiefang office very fact that a group of 36-volt battery, for example, trade-in is required to 300 yuan, 350 yuan to buy direct, respectively, than the original increase 20 yuan. The reporter learned from the East Foster electric vehicles, electric cars and Taiwan Jinan Qingqi Electric Vehicle store learned that the brand batteries have also been price increases. Because electric cars have not yet followed the prices, most consumers have not felt these changes.

Some early electric cars dealer received a battery factory price increase notification. Jinan Qingqi company related personnel, said a group of 36V battery weight 13 kilograms, of which 80% or more materials are lead, enterprises can not be completely digested, only increase.

It is understood that the present real estate in Jinan Qingqi Electric Vehicle is not prices, foreign real estate, such as Arminio, Suzhou and the small antelope, SAP Ben set, Fujitec, Bond and other brands of electric cars do not have prices.

To industry sources, raw materials, lead prices increase the cost of electric vehicle manufacturers, profit margins being compressed. Calm reaction to the current market, but manufacturers are likely within the coping strategies are being developed, the most direct way is to respond to a chain reaction to raise market prices.

Future Super Battery: will use the sugar molecules as the driving force

Laptop computers and mobile phones and other digital equipment, the Canon NB-5H battery will always be pain in the hearts, although there are large-capacity Lithium-Ion battery, as well as the upcoming fuel cell, but this is still not satisfactory. Recently the University of Missouri in St. Louis (Saint Louis University) researchers have recently discovered that sugar molecules can in fact be used as an alternative fuel. From the sugary drinks to tree sap, can play a role, and is expected to be higher than conventional lithium batteries to four times the durability, but compared to traditional fuel cell, all the materials can all be a natural decomposition.

The working principle of the new batteries with fuel cells in general are similar to those enzymes to convert the sugars to release e-process, the key there is a byproduct of water. The leader of the scheme, SHELLey Minteer, Ph.D., to prove that it is not bluffing, they create a similar one with postage stamp-sized fuel cells, and in 223 sessions of the American Chemical Society (American Chemical Society) annual conference , successfully promoted a calculator. Of course, since there is more work to be perfected, such as life issues, low temperature hot working environment issues and the cost of the most important problems to be resolved, but at least we see the energy future of hope.

70000 foreign experts for the development of Shanghai “advice and suggestions”

SAIC Roewe brands from the development, to the design of the Yangtze River Tunnel Shield; from the fuel the development of the tram, to the deep-water port development and the construction of Chongming Island, Shanghai, a growing number of major projects, key projects, are constantly emerged overseas talents presence. According to statistics, Shanghai students was 6.8 thousand people, each of the foreign experts in Shanghai has reached seven thousand visitors. These “external brain” to use their wisdom to help solve the key technical difficulties, for Shanghai’s development, “advice and suggestions.”

According to “Liberation Daily” press reports, in 2006, SAIC has introduced a high-level students Canon NB-5L, foreign expert team, a total of 7 are all run to join his U.S. citizenship, Ph.D., in the SAIC served as vice president, respectively, Project Director and Development Director and other important duties; their presence, for SAIC to build cars brand innovation and development of new energy vehicles to win the first move.

Shanghai Yangtze River Tunnel is the world’s largest diameter of the cross-river tunnel shield. Command this project hired over a dozen foreign experts, who prior to the implementation of the construction of the project design drawings made many valuable comments and suggestions.

In January of this year, Tongji University, introduced the German automobile research and development expert, Dr. Tong Zhang, expedite the completion of major projects of National 863 “fuel cell car” and the Shanghai Fuel Cell Car, “10, 100, 1000″ major projects.

According to Xinhua news agency reported, in this year in the Pujiang Talent Scheme, “Aircraft Manufacturing” for the first time are covered. This means that Shanghai hopes to a maximum of 50 million subsidy to attract overseas students joined the Shanghai team, “Big aircraft” project building. Deputy director of Shanghai Municipal Personnel Bureau, said hairy Dali, Shanghai, start a new one with immediate effect “brain trust” to introduce the plan, “high-level, highly educated, high-level talent from overseas, Shanghai generosity, the better. ”

Installation of solar panels electric bicycle

According to the World Invention magazine, the solar panels installed on the electric bike can climb some more effort. Solar panels can also moped battery to charge. Electric bicycle in the thinking of installing solar panels is an innovation in the international arena is a stylish, practical application is not a non-attempt to model.

Because electric bicycles to carry their own Canon NB-6L battery power is limited, and will not lose their characteristics of light and flexible, so acceleration, climbing on the battery power seems not enough energy to do if there is additional assistance, of course, can make up for certain deficiencies. For the limitations of battery performance, it is divergent thinking has been taken into account for example the use of electric, fuel combo, such as the use of super-capacitors, of course, including the use of solar panels. One of the advantages the use of solar panels is to keep batteries in a float state, can be more favorable to suppress the occurrence degree of polarization, so that battery life was significantly prolonged, this effect is 1 +1 “the relationship between the two.

Of course, popularized the use of solar panels, currently the biggest obstacle is the solar panels of the energy conversion rates and prices, it has been reported that the current conversion rate of amorphous solar panels more than 20%, the price of solar panels has also been reduced to 200 per square meter U.S. dollars or so, I believe, as technology advances and large-scale production of solar panels will become increasingly closer to practical use.

Universal mobile phone charger detection of the absence of joint-venture firms collectively

Recently, the 17 domestic handset manufacturers for inspection 21 Universal mobile phone charger to complete testing. This is the Ministry of Information Industry issued at the end of 2006, “Mobile Communications Handset Charger and Interface Technology Requirements and test methods” standard, and achieved a substantial progress, but the absence of a joint-venture companies all the testing.

International mobile phone manufacturers in the market share and patent ownership laptop battery and other indicators to measure, China’s mobile phone manufacturers has been in a rather awkward position. The introduction of a standard mobile phone charger, domestic manufacturers seem to see an opportunity, have to respond. Some domestic brand mobile phones already in the formal introduction of the standard before the first launch of a mobile phone USB charger interface.

In contrast, the attitude of the international cell phone manufacturers appeared to be quite concealed. As an international brand handset makers are mostly large-scale production, and the same model phone in various countries, the basic uniform specifications and production standards, so simply in order to meet China’s standards designed independently, an increase in the cost of reconstruction possible. A well-known international mobile phone maker, said its products to its fundamental unity charging interfaces, the charger most common access to a good reputation, but its interface is not a traditional USB interface, and for the implementation of the standard single handset sold in China to re-design of reform is bound to affect the cost, especially for some of the market in order to account for the number of low-end products known for the transformation of the relative investment would be greater.

CTTL master any Gui Li believes that although the standard mobile phone charger is the recommended standard, but it is also possible to adopt legislation to facilitate the implementation of the standard. Moreover, from a long-term perspective, a unified mobile phone charger interface will help cost control. The standard at the technical level does not make excessive demands, so the mobile phone manufacturers will not bring significant cost in terms of inputs to produce mainly the mainstream mobile phone maker’s profit will not be too much impact. As the overall demand for cell phone chargers are likely to drop, the larger will be affected by some of the production of mobile phone charger and other accessories mainly small and laptop batteries medium parts suppliers. But from another perspective, the design of the charger raising the level of production technology is a powerful promotion.

For the “Mobile Communications Handset Charger and Interface Technology Requirements and test methods”, He Gui Li said, first identified using the standard USB-A series of standards (ie, the most common USB interface) as the common charger and cell phone charger interface standard, Like the familiar PC’s USB port, as will bring a lot of convenience to consumers: no matter what kind of cell phone replacement, as long as there is a charger can be; if there is no business or go out with a charger, as long as the charge carried a cell phone line, then with the notebook computer can be connected to the temporary charge of the mobile phone. Secondly, the role of standards is not just limited to the charging port unity, charger unity, it also mobile phone book, SMS, photos, songs and other data with other devices to provide a convenient transfer between: Due to charge a uniform standard interface USB , then the cell phones and laptop computers and other electronic information, including the connection between the cable equipment, will use the same line (multi-line), in addition to charging functionality, but also can transmit and exchange data, to achieve first-line multi-purpose. At present, the format for data exchange interface and protocol standards have been drafted into the comments stage.

It is understood that the standardization of mobile phone and charger while in the international community has been of concern, but there is no unified international standards, China is the largest mobile phone design and production and consumer markets, China’s development of this standard Dell Battery may be generated in the international community a significant impact.
