摘要
设计要点体现了设计人对现有设计的创新性贡献,相对于授权外观设计的其他设计特征,通常对外观设计的整体视觉效果更具有显著影响。在整体观察、综合判断的基本原则下,如何客观评价设计要点对整体视觉效果的影响是司法实践中的难点。文章结合实际案例指出,将设计要点、被控侵权设计及现有设计放在一个三者共同比较的语境下能够更加客观地评价出设计要点对整体视觉效果的影响,实现设计要点与"整体观察、综合判断"原则的内在统一。
An essential design feature shows designer's innovative contributions to prior design and has more notable influence on the overall visual effect of the design than other features of the patented design. How to implement the principle of "overall observation and comprehensive judgment" and to make an objective evaluation of the influence of the essential design feature on the overall visual effect is a difficult problem in judicial practice. It is concluded that the essential feature in the involved design patent and the counterpart in the accused infringing design should be compared under the consideration of the prior design. Given that the influence of the essential design feature on the overall visual effect is objectively evaluated, the principle of "overall observation and comprehensive judgment" is to be followed.
