产品设计图著作权保护研究——以3D打印为视角

Copyright Protection of Product Design:from the Aspect of 3D Printing

产品设计图是3D打印的关键要素,作为图形作品受到著作权保护。由于产品设计图的价值主要体现在产品制造过程中,因此根据其进行3D打印并制造产品的行为应当被认为是著作权法上的复制行为,而且应当对其提供著作权保护。在确定保护范围时,应当根据现有最为严格的标准,以设计专家作为判别设计图与产品是否构成相同或者近似。在进行保护时,还需要解决权利公示问题,要对根据产品进行直接3D打印复制行为提供保护,并且设定新的邻接权。通过这些措施,可以有效地保护3D打印领域的著作权,并鼓励通过3D打印制造和传播作品。

Product design is the key factor in 3 D printing,which is protected by copyright as drawing work.As the value of design is embodied in the manufacturing of products,the 3D printing using it should be deemed as the reproduction of copyright law,and should provide protection to it.In defi-ning the scope of design,we should choose the most restrict standard and take experts as the subject in defining whether the design and the accused protection is the same or similar.In the phase of pro-tection,we should also solve the problem of right publication,provision of reproduction directly from physical production,and develop new related right.Through these measures,the copyright in the 3D printing can be effectively protected,and promote the manufacturing and dissemination through 3D printing.
