7-day rapid response, high-quality and efficient completion of the core patent layout for the distributed electric drive system, ensuring the global launch of the product
I. Case Introduction
Facing the severe challenge of the company's new distributed electric drive system about to be globally launched and the extremely short window period for patent layout, the ZYIP team completed the entire process from in-depth technical exploration, competitive analysis to system layout within 7 days. Finally, they submitted 23 high-quality patent applications before the product exhibition, building a solid intellectual property defense line for the global launch of the core technology.
II. Case Details
1.Customer Type/Industry
A core component supplier for new energy vehicles / Specializing in the research and manufacturing of advanced electric drive systems.
2. Customer Pain Points/Problems
(Technical Challenges): The newly developed distributed electric drive system by them (which innovatively addresses issues such as low integration level, high cost, insufficient space utilization, and poor heat dissipation efficiency of existing technologies) urgently requires comprehensive intellectual property protection.
(2) Business Challenges: The related products have entered the stage of global exhibition preparation and are about to be launched. The time window for patent layout is extremely tight (core patent applications need to be completed before the product is publicly displayed), and the traditional process cannot meet the time requirements.
(3) Competitive Risk: It is necessary to promptly identify and assess the patent barriers of competitors, avoid risks, and establish a strong patent protection network for oneself, especially focusing on their core innovation points (such as unique spatial layout, cooling system optimization, axial magnetic field motor application, etc.).
3. Solution/Process:
(1) In-depth technical exploration and demand targeting: The project team was quickly formed and immediately dispatched to the client's Shanghai R&D center. They engaged in intense technical communication with the client's R&D personnel, accurately identifying 29 core technical points, and clearly defining the protection priorities and boundaries.
(2) Efficient competitive situation scan: Simultaneously conduct focused investigations into the publicly available patents of the company's main competitors, quickly grasp the competitive landscape and potential risk points, and provide key input for strategy formulation.
(3) Dynamic layout strategy adjustment and focus: Based on the technical mining results and the competitive search analysis outcomes, promptly adjust and optimize the patent layout plan, and focus on the core value areas.
(4) Multi-dimensional patent portfolio construction: Systematically plan patent applications based on core innovation directions such as "controller", "reducer", "cooling system", "space layout", and "axial magnetic field motor".
(5) Excessive resource allocation and rapid response:
Full-process highly compressed: From technical exploration and communication, to technical point search, competitive analysis, to the final layout plan determination, it was completed within 7 natural days, far exceeding the speed of regular projects.
② Skilled attorney resource allocation: Once a case is received, we immediately allocate the resources of experienced patent attorneys to handle it first, ensuring both the quality and efficiency of the writing.
③ Seamless integration and delivery: The team worked closely together to ensure that all 23 patent cases (including 4 core cases) were fully submitted to the client before the global exhibition of their products.
4. Results/Data:
Patent layout achievements: Successfully established a portfolio consisting of 23 patent applications, among which 4 are core patents. This portfolio comprehensively covers the key technological innovation points of customers in the distributed electric drive system (such as space layout optimization, cooling system, controller integration, reducer design, axial field motor application, etc.).
② Timeliness achievement: 100% on-time delivery. All patent applications were submitted officially before the public exhibition of the customer's product, effectively avoiding the risk of losing novelty due to public disclosure, providing a solid intellectual property guarantee for the global launch of the product.
③ High customer approval: The project layout work was highly recognized and praised by the client. The client particularly commended the team's ability and efficiency in completing high-quality technical exploration, competitive analysis, and patent layout within an extremely short period of time (7 days), and expressed great satisfaction with the project results.
④ Core Value Protection: Through a systematic layout, effective intellectual property barriers were established for core technological innovation, thereby enhancing the market competitiveness and commercial value of the customer's products.
