防侵权预警19：儿童喷水池在美国的发明专利情况

跨境电商平台在销产品目标国家外观专利排查，
拒绝马后炮，提前预警，杜绝侵权事件的发生！

我在亚马逊美国站看到一款儿童喷水池似乎有要热卖的趋势（夏天要来了），朋友圈也看到海卖电商学院（亚马逊运营培训机构）负责人Skyla也分享了这款产品，最近也有部分商家看上了这款选品，但是，要注意侵权问题。

因为这款产品是有美国的发明专利的，下面为该发明专利部分附图：

该发明专利的工作原理是：onventional water toys for children include splash pads and splash mats that may be connected to a garden hose or other water source. Such toys include a substantially flat pad or mat forming a playing surface for children to sit or stand. The playing surface is surrounded by a ring that sprays water onto the playing surface. Water from the hose enters the ring through a hose fitting. The water is sprayed in streams from one or more orifices into the air generally directed toward the playing surface. Some water may collect on the playing surface, forming a shallow pool of standing water. Children positioned on the playing surface may be sprayed with water, allowing the children to splash in the water and cool off.

大意是：儿童水上玩具，由防溅垫和环组成，环上有喷口和接口，该接口可以连接花园软管或其他水源，打开水源，水从多个喷口喷出并部分落实防溅垫内形成积水。

故，在美国市场，只要销售以上工作原理的产品，均落入侵权范畴。

虽，发明专利侵权维权的采证取证难道较大，短时间之内不会出事，但要想最终不被专利权人投诉专利侵权，长远来看最好取得相应授权，方可继续开展销售行动。
