Abstract

The purpose of this article is to consider problematic issues regarding unfair competition in patent law, in particular, patent trolling. For this purpose, the concepts of «patent trolling» and «patent troll» were analyzed. Types of patent trolls are also defined. The signs and peculiarities of patent trolling in Ukraine and the reasons for its spread are established. The manifestation of unfair competition, consisting in the abuse of intellectual property rights, is considered. Recommendations are given on introducing an effective mechanism to combat patent trolls and bring them to justice for unfair competition. The methodological basis of the research is general scientific and special methods of scientific knowledge. The use of these methods made it possible to describe and propose ways to solve the problem of unfair competition in patent law, in particular, patent trolling. Results: no provision in national legislation directly provides for the liability of patent trolls for abuse of rights, including under competition law. Ukrainian legislation does not provide for the liability of patent trolls for the abuse of rights, which in a certain way have a conditional nature, since they are provided under their personal responsibility in terms of compliance of the object with the conditions of patentability or the criteria of protectionability. In this regard, it is necessary to eliminate the causes and conditions that contribute to the mentioned negative phenomenon at the legislative level. Discussion: in fact, «patent trolls» are neither product manufacturers nor inventors, but only possess property rights to objects of intellectual property rights, buying up protective documents for them and realizing these rights only by prohibiting their use, initiating lawsuits, in fact, that’s why they got that name.

专利法中的不正当竞争(专利钓鱼)
本文的目的是考虑与专利法中的不公平竞争有关的问题,特别是专利钓鱼。为此,对“专利流氓”和“专利流氓”的概念进行了分析。还定义了专利流氓的类型。在乌克兰,专利钓鱼的迹象和特点及其传播的原因是确定的。论述了不正当竞争的表现形式,主要表现为滥用知识产权。建议引入有效的机制,打击专利流氓,并将他们绳之以法的不正当竞争。研究的方法论基础是科学知识的一般科学方法和特殊科学方法。这些方法的使用使描述和提出解决专利法中不公平竞争问题的方法成为可能,特别是专利钓鱼。结果:国家立法中没有直接规定专利流氓滥用权利的责任,包括竞争法。乌克兰立法没有规定专利流氓对滥用权利的责任,这些权利在某种程度上具有条件性质,因为它们是根据其个人责任提供的,即对象是否符合可专利性条件或可保护性标准。在这方面,有必要在立法一级消除造成上述消极现象的原因和条件。讨论:事实上,“专利流氓”既不是产品制造商也不是发明者,而只是拥有知识产权对象的产权,为他们购买保护文件,并通过禁止使用它们来实现这些权利,发起诉讼,事实上,这就是为什么他们得到了这个名字。
