(Original title: "Tesla" trademark is supported)
Beijing Morning Post (Reporter He Xin) In September 2012, Huarui Kaisheng Company applied for the registration of the "Tesla" trademark, which later became known as "Vic." The trademark was officially announced on January 13, 2014, and eventually received approval. Tesla Inc., however, argued that the trademark was registered in bad faith and sought its cancellation through the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board. This request was denied, prompting Tesla to take legal action. Recently, the Beijing Intellectual Property Court ruled in favor of Tesla, ordering the revocation of the decision.
The "Tesla" trademark was first submitted by Huarui Kaisheng on September 12, 2012, and was published for public inspection on January 13, 2014. After being approved, it was granted for use in Class 9, covering items such as optical instruments, vehicle batteries, ignition batteries, high-voltage batteries, and battery chargers.
On April 15, 2015, Tesla claimed that the "Tesla" trademark, along with its earlier "TESLA" and "TESLA and Map" trademarks (number 8008885), constituted similar or identical marks used on related products. According to Tesla, this registration violated its prior rights and involved an unfair pre-registration of a well-known brand. The company argued that Huarui Kaisheng had maliciously imitated and copied its trademark, which had already gained significant recognition. Tesla then filed an invalidation request with the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board, but it was rejected due to lack of sufficient evidence.
Dissatisfied with the outcome, Tesla took the case to the Beijing Intellectual Property Court, arguing that the disputed trademark violated provisions of the Trademark Law before its amendment.
During the trial, the court acknowledged that both parties agreed that the disputed trademark and Tesla’s trademark were similar. The court noted that the first two letters of both trademarks were identical, with only minor differences in capitalization or slight distortions in the letters, making them essentially the same. Given that batteries and electric vehicles are often sold together, the high similarity between the trademarks could lead consumers to believe there was a connection between the two brands, potentially causing confusion about the source of the products.
Based on these findings, the Beijing Intellectual Property Court decided to overturn the previous ruling and ordered the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board to reconsider the case.
400W-550W PERC Mono Solar Cell
PERC mono panels are assembled from monocrystalline silicon wafers, distinguished for their superior purity and consistent crystalline architecture. This leads to a greater efficiency than alternatives like polycrystalline or thin-film technologies. The term "PERC" encompasses a surface treatment technique applied to the panel's cells. This involves the use of specialized materials to minimize recombination losses, thereby facilitating smoother electron flow within the cell. This process entails the application of an oxide layer onto both the cell's emitter and rear surfaces, enhancing light absorption and decreasing light reflection.
Features
1. Increased Efficiency: PERC panels have a higher efficiency rate than conventional monocrystalline or polycrystalline solar panels. This is due to the use of a reflective layer on the back of the cell that reduces reflection losses and enhances light absorption.
2. Improved Light Utilization: The reflective surface on the rear of PERC cells helps to capture more light, especially from angles where light might not reach the front surface effectively in other types of solar cells. This results in better performance in low-light conditions and during partial shading.
3. Ease of Installation: The structure of PERC panels allows for easier installation compared to some other advanced technologies, such as bifacial cells, which require careful alignment to ensure optimal light capture from both sides.
4. Low Maintenance: PERC panels are less prone to degradation issues like PID (Photo-induced Degradation) and LID (Light Induced Degradation), which can significantly affect the performance of solar panels over time. This means they require less maintenance and can operate reliably for longer periods without significant performance loss.
Contrary to conventional designs where the front side serves as the emitter, PERC panels feature the emitter on the rear along with the contacts. This layout significantly reduces the impact of shading due to front-side contacts, thus boosting efficiency, especially in scenarios with low light.
