SITEMAP
BrugsmodelEn brugsmodel er noget anderledes end et patent, selvom de er i familie sammen. Brugsmodel beskyttelse er indført for at give mulighed for at beskytte praktiske nyskabelser som nok er beskyttelsesværdige, men ikke opfylder patentlovens strengere krav til opfindelseshøjde. Der er dog ikke noget i vejen for at brugsmodelbeskyttelse og patent kan opnås sideløbende, hvilket nogle gange kan være en fordel. Beskyttelsestiden er 10 år.Patent oppositionThe opposition procedure before the European Patent Office (EPO) is a post-grant, contentious, inter partes, administrative [1] procedure intended to allow any European patent to be centrally opposed. European patents granted by the EPO under the European Patent Convention (EPC) may be opposed by any person from the public (no commercial or other interest whatsoever need be shown). This happens often when some prior art was not found during the grant procedure, but was only known by third parties. |
