READING 1


Exercise 1. Read through the text and answer the questions.


1. What is an industrial design?


2. What kind of protection does an industrial design right offer?


3. What kinds of products can benefit from industrial design protection?


4. How are industrial designs protected?


5. How long does industrial design protection last?


6. How are industrial design rights enforced?


7. What is the difference between an industrial design right and a patent?


Design means ‘the appearance of the whole or a part of a product resulting from the features of, in particular, the lines, contours, colors, shape, texture, materials of the product or its ornamentation. The essence of this definition is that design is about the appearance of a product. In a legal sense, an industrial design constitutes the ornamental or aesthetic aspect of an article. An industrial design may consist of three-dimensional features, such as the shape of an article, or two-dimensional features, such as patterns, lines or color. In principle, the owner of a registered industrial design or of a design patent has the right to prevent third parties from making, selling or importing articles bearing or embodying a design, which is a copy, or substantially a copy, of the protected design, when such acts are undertaken for commercial purposes. Industrial designs are applied to a wide variety of products of industry and handicraft items: from packages and containers to furnishing and household goods, from lighting equipment to jewelry, and from electronic devices to textiles. Industrial designs may also be relevant to graphic symbols, graphical user interfaces (GUI), and logos. In most countries, an industrial design needs to be registered in order to be protected under industrial design law as a “registered design”. In some countries, industrial designs are protected under patent law as “design patents”. Industrial design laws in some countries grant — without registration — time- and scope limited protection to so-called “unregistered industrial designs”. Depending on the particular national law and the kind of design, industrial designs may also be protected as works of art under copyright law. Industrial design rights are granted for a limited period. The duration of the protection of industrial designs varies from country to country, but it amounts at least to 10 years. In many countries, the total duration of protection is divided into successive renewable periods. Industrial design rights are usually enforced in a court, generally on the initiative of the owner of the rights, as provided for by the applicable law. The remedies and penalties vary from country to country and could be civil (injunctions to desist from an infringement, payment of damages, etc.), criminal or administrative. An industrial design right protects only the appearance or aesthetic features of a product, whereas a patent protects an invention that offers a new technical solution to a problem. In principle, an industrial design right does not protect the technical or functional features of a product. Such features could, however, potentially be protected by a patent.

VOCABULARY IN USE


Exercise 2. Read the text and fill in the gaps with the appropriate phrases.


appearance; regard; elaborated; exclusive; get-up; subject; unlikely; given


The inclusion of matter such as … and graphic symbols as products represents at least a change in the way in which the … is approached. Now they are to be seen as products themselves. In other words, products may be two-dimensional. Now typefaces are expressly included in the definition of a product and the designs may be registered for protection. The old law contained at least some doubt as to whether designs for packaging could be registered, but it is now clear that this is so.


… is the second essential element in the definition of design. The old law’s rather absurd ‘eye appeal’ test has happily disappeared, while its shape and configuration, pattern and ornament are either replaced or … by the new laws.


… that a product may be two as well as three-dimensional, there is not much need to highlight the difference with … to appearance. Lines, contours and of course shape may be taken to refer to the three-dimensional, while lines, colours and ornamentation seem to be equivalent to the former ‘pattern and ornament’. But discussions which used to cause trouble in the old law, about articles which had contoured surfaces, and whether this was shape, configuration, pattern or ornament, seem … to arise under the new law, where the list of design characteristics are ‘in particular’ and so not ….
