Japan Economic News reported on November 15 that Panasonic Electric Appliance Industry Co., Ltd. of Japan has filed a lawsuit with Shenzhen intermediate people's Court of Guangdong Province, China, asking Fara electronics to stop the manufacturing and sales of the product and claim 35 million yuan for compensation because it found that the thin-film capacitor produced by Xiamen Fara Electronics was involved in infringement.

In the evening of that day, Farah Electronics announced that Farah electronics had received the response notice and other relevant documents from Shenzhen intermediate people's Court of Guangdong Province.

Panasonic Electric said in the complaint that Panasonic electric had the patent right of invention patent No. 200380101061.7 in China and held that the defendant's Fara electronics had infringed its patent right by manufacturing, selling and promising to sell "C36 dry DC filter capacitor" for the purpose of production and operation without permission.

Panasonic asked Fara electronics to immediately stop infringing the invention patent No. 200380101061.7, including stopping manufacturing, selling and offering to sell the alleged infringing products. At the same time, Shenzhen Hong Kong law technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., the other defendant, is also required to immediately stop infringing the invention patent No. 200380101061.7, including stopping the sales and promising to sell the alleged infringing products.

In terms of claim amount, Panasonic claimed the economic loss of 35 million yuan from Fara electronics and asked Fara electronics to bear the reasonable expenditure of 500000 yuan for Panasonic's rights protection.

According to its official website, Farah electronics is a listed company specializing in the manufacturing and R & D of thin-film capacitors and metallized films for thin-film capacitors, with an annual output of 4.5 billion thin-film capacitors and 4500 tons of metallized films. The company mainly provides "one-stop" solutions for all kinds of complete machine customers, such as lighting, communication, household appliances, industrial control, new energy vehicles, etc.

According to the company's financial report, Farah electronics is one of the domestic enterprises specializing in the R & D and production of domestic thin-film capacitors. It has entered the top 100 electronic components in China for 33 consecutive sessions, and the scale of thin-film capacitors ranks first in China and third in the world. Farah electronics officially landed on the main board market of Shanghai Stock Exchange on December 10, 2002, and the company's revenue in the year of listing was 246 million.

In view of the impact of this patent dispute, Fara electronics said that this lawsuit will not affect the daily production and operation of Fara electronics. Fara electronics has hired a professional intellectual property lawyer team to respond to the lawsuit. Fara electronics and the lawyer team believe that the products involved in the lawsuit do not infringe the patents involved.

Patent right is not only an important proof of innovation strength, but also an important guarantee for winning market competition. With the rapid development of market economy, the war around patents has become a normal state in market economy.

In particular, science and technology enterprises should pay more attention to the layout of patents when paying attention to R & D. Actively safeguard their own rights and interests on the premise of respecting the intellectual property rights of others. We must make every effort to crack down on the infringement of our intellectual property rights. In the face of patent infringement and other dispute cases, we also hope that Chinese businesses can actively take up legal weapons to protect their own rights and interests when justified.
