TM means trademark symbol, that is, words, figures or symbols marked with TM are trademarks, but they are not necessarily registered (unregistered ones are not protected by law). And r is the abbreviation of REGISTER, which means registered trademark when used in trademarks.

2. Characteristic meaning

R is the abbreviation of REGISTER, which means registered trademark when used in trademarks. The circle R is the mark of "registered trademark", which means that the trademark has been registered in the State Trademark Office and has been examined and approved by the Trademark Office, and has become a registered trademark.

TM on a TradeMark has its special meaning. The TM logo does not protect the trademark. It is different from R. TM is the abbreviation of trademark, which includes both registered trademark R and direct use of unregistered trademarks without the approval of the Trademark Office.

3, legal protection

R trademark has the characteristics of exclusiveness, exclusivity and uniqueness, which belongs to the owner of the registered trademark and is protected by law. No enterprise or individual can use it without the permission or authorization of the owner of the registered trademark, otherwise it will bear tort liability.

a trademark marked TM can play a certain protective role. However, if the trademark is not approved and registered by the Trademark Office, its legal protection is not strong. Only when the unregistered trademark reaches a certain popularity can it obtain legal protection to a certain extent.
