1.How to use patent information to assist enterprises to break through limitation

resulting from thought and environment while conducting a research of R&D orientation?

Case 1:A and B, two late-model R&D enterprises of

environmental power production, put forward two quite different sorts

of thought for the same technology.

A, an enterprise from south

China

B, an enterprise from the Central Plain

R&D thought of enterprises’ technical personnel staff is frequently constrained by their own products. So how can we use patent information to help them？

R&D branches

There are five R&D branches of the technology. A and B put forward two schemes oriented to different branches. In addition, an fungible technology is available.

A’s proposal is found relatively outdated after analyzing patents’ effect by way of statistics.

However, B’s proposal counters domestic patent barrier. C with the similar proposal has been prosecuted by companies abroad.

2.How to achieve more well-targeted pre-R&D technology accumulation

and reference for enterprises?

案例 2

D is a leading domestic enterprise of research and manufacture of sophisticated equipment.

D hopes to gather a special component-related patent data of some transporting equipment in a bid to facilitate R&D in the long run.

信息服务人员采用了如下的工作方式：

The targeted technology is rarely seen internally

with labs of higher institutions boasting a

small amount of patents.D chooses not to

conduct international patent research blindly.

D makes research targeted at countries

with strong technology such as US and Europe.

Determining the date filed

Collection-type research is far from enough.D conducts analytic research of targeted components’ processing technology, unit construction, internal structure, analogue technology, four technical details and nearly 30 skill points.

After selecting and processing indexing of the patents according to rules of technical analysis, D determines the key patent technology so as to facilitate technical personnel for reading and making reference.

Selecting andprocessing the patents

Compared with traditional database building-type search, this method of patent information application is more well-targeted, more in-depth and more practical
