非法使用专利产品之责任形式检讨

A critical analysis of the liabilities of the illegal use of patent products

非法使用专利产品应当承担停止侵害的责任,这种观点并不是法律解释学的当然结论。在个案中若无视具体案情一律贯彻这种观点,可能会造成利益失衡。在当前的司法实践及今后的专利法修订工作中,有必要对非法使用专利产品的行为类型进行区分,并相应界定责任形式。对于虽属非法使用但涉及公共利益,或者善意购买专利侵权产品并使用的,在专利权人获得充分的经济赔偿之后,不应当再适用停止侵害的责任形式。

Most people believe that any illegal use of patent products shall hear the consequent liabilities, which is not the unique conclusion of legal hermeneutics. It may result in some unfair distribution of interests if the aforesaid mainstream view is implemented in all cases. In the current judicial practice as well as in the future revision of the Chinese Patent Law, it is necessary to distinguish different kinds of illegal use of patent products, and define different liabilities. For the illegal use of patent products for public interests or the purchase of such products out of good will, the patentee should not ask for more liabilities if he is fully compensated.
