摘要
随着智能化制造新浪潮的到来,3D打印将成为促进未来经济增长的重要创新技术。同时,3D打印技术也将带来知识产权保护的困境。由于CAD文档不构成专利权保护下的技术方案,知识产权直接侵权规则无法适用于专利产品CAD文档的制作、销售与传播;CAD文档的非物质性使得前述行为游离于帮助侵权规则之外;非生产经营实施例外为CAD文档制作等行为开启了免责之门;著作权法"思想与表达二分法"规则也无助于保护实用性功能。针对这些问题,适用现行共同侵权规则具有一定的可行性,但须在保护专利权人与防止专利权滥用之间谨慎地寻求平衡。
With the new wave of intelligent manufacturing,3D printing will be a crucial innovative technology contributing to promoting economic growth in the future. Meanwhile,3D printing technology will also bring challenges of intellectual property protection. Since CAD documents do not constitute the technical solution under the patent protection,the rule of direct infringement cannot be applied to manufacture,sales and dissemination of CAD documents of patented products. The non-physical character of CAD documents divorces itself from the rule of assistance infringement. Exceptions for non-commercial implementation shield the aforementioned conducts from liability. The " thought and expression dichotomy" rule under the copyright law seems helpless to protect functional features. Facing these challenges,it is feasible to apply the existing rule of joint infringement; however,it merits attention to prudently seeking balance between protecting right holders and preventing abuse of patent exclusive rights.
