我国专利间接侵权的困境及立法建议

On the Difficult Plight and the Legislative Proposals of the Indirect Infringement of Patents

为保护专利权人的合法利益,适应经济生活的客观需求,我国应对专利间接侵权做出明确规定,而不宜适用共同侵权规则。侵权责任法作为民事权利保护的基本法,对间接侵权应该有一个抽象概括的规定,以使专利法等法律规定的间接侵权有一个上位法的依据。而且,专利法对专利间接侵权的构成要件也应做出详细规定,以区别于专利直接侵权和专利共同侵权。

In order to protect the legal interests of patentees and adapt to objective demand of economic subsistence, China ought to explicitly stipulate indirect infringement of patents, and should not apply to the rules of joint infringement. Tort law as a principal law to protect civil rights is supposed to regulate indirect infringement of patents abstractly and generally in order to contribute lex superior basis of indirect infringement of legal provisions such as patent law. Moreover, patent law should also prescript constitutive elements of indirect infringement of patent with circumstance so as to differentiate indirect infringement of patent from joint infringement of patent.
