Maxspect正在承受确保Jebao获取信息以停止侵犯其他公司的设计和专利的压力。周二,Maxspect分享了他们在网上发布的一封电子邮件,向Jebao发出警告,以了解使用该公司的Gyre Pumps的专利设计。
帖子指出,他们要注意到Jebao交叉流动泵— Jecod CP-25 and CP-45 — seem to infringe on Maxspect’s pending patent application. The post goes further to note that “Maxspect is putting everyone on notice that theft of their intellectual property will not be tolerated and by ignoring this warning you may be liable for damages.”
Although we feel for Maxspect and other manufacturers that have their designs “borrowed”, there may not be too much that can be done at this point. According to U.S. patent law, pending patents cannot a person or entity that files a patent application on an invention has patent pending status until a patent issues or the application is abandoned. This isn’t a slam dunk that the U.S. Patent Office will actually grant the patent as it can be rejected for many reasons.
有特许权使用费和潜在损害的临时权利,但是需要满足许多要求。发送的通知书可能有效地使Jebao停止进口或进行讨论以达成许可费,但我们很可能会看到Jebao忽略了它并导入这些泵。如果并且何时获得专利,则可能会有另一章,但是直到那时,我们可能会看到市场上更多此类泵。

Title: CROSS-FLOW WAVE MAKING PUMP
By: Guangzhou Maiguang Electronic Science Technology Co., Ltd., d.b.a. Maxspect
Sheridan Law Ref. 81151.0001
Dear Sirs:
Guangzhou Maiguang Electronic Science Technology Co., Ltd., d.b.a. Maxspect (hereinafter “Maxspect”) is the owner of a utility patent application, which includes claim coverage directed to a cross-flow wave making pump. As a reference, enclosed is U.S. Patent Application Publication No. US 2015/0292507 A1.
我注意从两篇文章在ReefBuilders.comindustry intelligence indicates that Jebao Co., Ltd. or related entities have designed and may offer a Jecod CP-45, a Jecod CP-25, or other related equipment which is described and illustrated as a “Cross-Flow Wave Pump”. As a reference, enclosed are copies of the two articles as well as a portion of the website at the aboveidentified URL. This equipment may ultimately infringe one or more claims of the pending patent application of the above-identified U.S. patent application publication. Under the provisional rights provisions added to the Patent Act in 1999, a claimant can recover damages (after the patent issues) if it gives notice to the target of the claims after the pending application is published. See, 35 USC 154(d).
目前,Maxspect将很高兴讨论各种选择,以使您能够在与上述专利申请有关的临时权利规定下避免侵权责任。如果您认为此时不需要采取任何行动,那么如果您可以深入了解您的理由,那将是有帮助的。侵权可能通过与上述专利申请出版物的索赔冲突而发生,使用或出售产品。Maxspect可能会选择向侵权产品的一个或两个卖方或制造商寻求损害。
Please contact me at your earliest convenience to address this matter.
Sincerely,
James A. Sheridan Sheridan Law LLC
