This project involves the vibration reduction technology for the internal pipelines of refrigeration and heating equipment. The client initially provided several proposals. The cases are highly interrelated, but the logical relationship of the technical points is not yet clear, and there are multiple duplicate solutions. Our team established an agent team and conducted extensive communication with the clients. We reorganized the technology and conducted thorough searches for each proposal. During the search process, it was discovered that some proposals were existing technologies. After the search, based on the results, we reorganized, expanded, and guided the inventors to improve the technical solutions (such as supplementing experimental data, analysis processes, highlighting effect diagrams and comparative data, etc.).

 Each case focused on one core invention point, and the invention points of different cases were differentiated. At the same time, we did not directly delete the existing technology solutions. Instead, we incorporated them into other patentable cases as specific implementation examples, without losing any specific solution from the original proposal. Finally, under the strong advocacy of the client for a reduced but improved patent application strategy, we still applied for 11 invention and utility model patents. Among them, 3 were classified as secondary patents by the client's internal assessment (the client's patent proposals are classified by importance, including primary, secondary, and tertiary cases. Among them, the tertiary cases are ordinary cases, while the primary and secondary cases are important cases. For the primary and secondary cases, the client's internal and agent review requires four rounds of approval before they can be submitted to the National Intellectual Property Administration).
