Recently Manfred A.A.Lupke, legal representative of Corma Inc., a machinery manufacturer of corrugated plastic pipe, has entered agreements regarding enforcement settlement with three defendants for patent infringement cases which were instituted in Shanghai. A total amount of RMB750,000 in total has been adjudged as compensation to Lupke after trials of second instance. Lupke won the law suits.
The patent infringement centers on Corma's exclusive Mold Block Quick Return Technology, the use of which increases output rates while offering the pipe producer a reduction in the capital expenditure for moldblocks.
The three defendant Chinese manufacturers, Shanghai Jwell Machinery Co., ERA Construction Materials Development Co. and Anhui Guotong High-tech Pipes Co.Ltd had been decided by court as having manufactured, sold and used products infringing Lupke's patents for business purposes, therefore were put under the civil liabilities as to cease to produce the infringing conducts and compensate the damage.
Corma has been registering patents in China since the mid-eighties, with more than 30 patents issued and dozens more in the application stage.
