英国专利因无效案件修正后，如何查找最终有效的专利文本

wlz581 发表于 2008-4-22 23:26:47

为了解GB2297550的最终的权利要求，在英国知识产权局查找GB2297550的法律状态信息，得如下信息。通过检索它的专利公报，蓝色部分可以查出来。但是我没法查出02.04.2004的具体修改内容，还有红色标识部分没有在公报上查出来。敬请高手指点。

Re:英国专利因无效案件修正后，如何查找最终有效的专利文本

此案件A告B侵权,B无效A的专利,后来A的专利在修改的基础上维持有效,
此时法院判B不侵权.

wlz581可以先看看是不是这个案件/诉讼然后我再看看能找到修改后的文本不?

2004 WL 2866191

Summary

Subject: Intellectual property

Keywords: Experiments; Expert witnesses; Insufficiency; Inventive step; Novelty; Patents; Purposive interpretation

Catchphrases: patents; infringement; patent for paroxetine hydrochloride anhydrate not invalid by reason of anticipation or

obviousness

Abstract: The appellant (S) appealed against a decision ( EWHC 2939, F.S.R. 26) that the respondents (R) had not

infringed S\'s patent for paroxetine hydrochloride anhydrate substantially free of bound organic solvent and that the patent

was invalid. The claims of the patent were for a process for the preparation of paroxetine hydrochloride anhydrate

substantially free of isopropyl alcohol, which comprised crystallising paroxetine hydrochloride in an organic solvent or

mixture of organic solvents which formed a solvate with the paroxetine hydrochloride and which were not removable by

conventional drying techniques thereafter displacing the solvated solvent or solvents using a displacing agent. R submitted

that (1) the patent was anticipated by or obvious in the light of prior art, namely a United Kingdom application for a patent

for paroxetine hemihydrate and a United States patent for erythromycin; (2) R\'s process was not within the claims in S\'s

patent.

Summary: Held, allowing the appeal in part, that (1) the patent was not anticipated by the previous UK patent application.

There was no clear instruction to displace residual solvent. Repeating the example given in the application, using a small

amount of isopropyl alcohol produced hemihydrate, not anhydrate. Nor was the patent obvious in the light of the UK

application. There were no additions or alterations to the recipe which would be made by the ordinary skilled man and which

would produce the anhydrate with bound isopropyl alcohol removed. The patent was not obvious in the light of the US patent,

which related to the issue of displacement, since the ordinary skilled man attempting to make anhydrate did not know about

the problem of bound solvent as such. Putting S\'s patent together with the erythromycin patent involved impermissibly

combining two documents, the separate contents of which were not common general knowledge. (2) A displacing agent was an

agent which displaced the solvent of solvation from the material in which it was bound so as to reduce the amount of solvent

of solvation to a level lower than that achievable by drying. The patent was based on a particular discovery that the bound

solvent could be removed in a slurry with an appropriate agent. R\'s process did not work in that way. It involved treating

with acetone, which was specifically mentioned in the patent as the sort of solvent which formed unremovable solvate.

Therefore the patent could not be referring to acetone as a displacing agent. Therefore R\'s process did not infringe.

Re:英国专利因无效案件修正后，如何查找最终有效的专利文本

权利要求的修改如下

The Patent in Suit

12. This was applied for in 1996. Its title is \"Paroxetine hydrochloride anhydrate substantially free of bound organic solvent.\" In its broadest form it was an attempt to gain patent protection for the anhydrate sufficiently pure to pass regulatory approval. As I have said, following the BASF litigation it was considerably amended -- broadly down to particular processes for making the anhydrate free of solvent.
13. Claims 1 and 2 (as amended) read:
1. A process for the preparation of paroxetine hydrochloride anhydrate substantially free of IPA which comprises crystallising paroxetine hydrochloride in an organic solvent or mixture of organic solvents which form a solvate with the paroxetine hydrochloride and which are not removable by conventional drying techniques thereafter displacing the solvated solvent or solvents using a displacing agent.
2. A process for the preparation of paroxetine hydrochloride anhydrate substantially free of bound organic solvent which comprises displacing the solvated solvent or solvents from a paroxetine hydrochloride solvate using a displacing agent.\"

是针对这两项权利要求再起官司，最后专利权人了修改了它的权利要求，专利继续有效。所以不知它最后的权利要求是什么样子了。
权利要求的最终状态是否应该有相应的文本，我通过专利公报可以查得这个专利以前的一些修改情况，但是最后一次修改的没有查到。由于只能通过文本检索，非常容易漏查。
另外，对于英国的专利公报尚且支持文本检索，中国的专利公报还是图像格式，根本就不能通过进行检索，这种情况不是不能通过上网解决了？
