A well-known domestic construction group is facing problems such as insufficient protection of technological achievements and high risks of market counterfeiting during the development of an "energy-saving self-cleaning curtain wall system". The system integrates new composite building materials, intelligent ventilation structures, and nano self-cleaning technology, with a 30% increase in energy efficiency compared to traditional curtain walls. However, the enterprise lacks systematic planning in patent layout, infringement warning, and other aspects, and urgently needs professional intellectual property consulting support.

After receiving the enterprise's demand, we formed a special team consisting of patent agents, construction technology experts, and infringement analysis specialists. Firstly, a comprehensive technical disassembly and patent search will be conducted to conduct in-depth analysis of the 8 technical modules of the system, including core components, connection structures, and control algorithms, and to identify 12 core innovation points. In response to the shortcomings of the company's previous application for only 3 utility model patents, a three-dimensional patent layout strategy of "core technology invention patents+peripheral technology utility models+appearance design" was formulated, ultimately assisting the company in completing 28 patent applications, including 15 invention patents, covering key aspects such as material formulation, structural design, and construction technology.

To prevent the risk of market counterfeiting, we have established a patent infringement warning mechanism. By tracking and analyzing the patent layout and product technical features of major competitors in the industry, a comparative database containing more than 500 technical features was established to form the "Infringement Risk Assessment Report", which identified 8 high-risk technical points and avoidance plans. Before the company's product was launched, we assisted in sending lawyer letters to three suspected infringing companies, successfully preventing two potential infringement behaviors.

After the implementation of the project, the energy-saving curtain wall system was successfully applied to 12 landmark building projects with exclusive patent protection, and its market share jumped to the top in the industry. The patent layout has brought significant economic benefits to enterprises, not only obtaining income of 23 million yuan through patent licensing, but also gaining a bonus advantage in bidding due to "independent and controllable core technology", with a cumulative winning bid amount exceeding 1.5 billion yuan. The professional planning of our intellectual property consulting team has truly transformed our technological innovation into market competitiveness, "said the company leader
