First of all, when registering a trademark, you can look at the composition of the trademark:
As the letters that constitute the trademark, it refers to the smallest writing unit of pinyin characters or phonetic symbols, including pinyin characters, foreign languages Letters such as English letters, Latin letters, etc. The original Trademark Law [1] classified trademarks consisting only of letters into the category of word trademarks. However, the newly revised Trademark Law in 2001 regarded letters as one of the constituent elements of a trademark. This provision is more realistic and also It is convenient for the trademark authorities to review and approve trademark registration applications in accordance with the law.
Numbers as components of trademarks are also new provisions of the 2001 Trademark Law [1]. The numbers constituting the trademark can be either Arabic numerals or Chinese uppercase numerals.
As a three-dimensional mark that constitutes a trademark, it can also be called a three-dimensional mark. It is a three-dimensional mark with three dimensions: length, width and height. A trademark mark composed of a three-dimensional mark is called a three-dimensional mark. It is different from the trademark pattern that we usually see on a flat surface. Instead, it appears in a three-dimensional material form. This form may appear on the appearance of the product. It can also be displayed on the container or other places of the product. The addition of regulations on the registration and protection of three-dimensional trademarks is a new addition to the Trademark Law [1] revised in 2001, which will make China's trademark protection system more complete.
The color combination alone as a trademark element is also a newly added content in the 2001 Trademark Law [1]. Unique and novel color combinations can not only give people a sense of beauty, but also have distinctiveness, can play a role in indicating products or sources, and can also play a role in distinguishing producers, operators or service providers.
The above-mentioned six types of trademark elements can be registered as trademarks alone, or two or more of the above-mentioned elements can be combined in any combination, whether identical or different, but they must comply with the "Trademark Law" [1 ] Relevant provisions of Articles 8 and 9. The words, graphics, letters, numbers, sounds, three-dimensional signs or combinations thereof that constitute a trademark will be registered as black and white and protected as black and white if no specific color requirements are specified when applying for trademark registration. If a designated color or color combination is clearly stated, the registration will be based on the designated color or color combination, and the designated color or color combination will also be protected.
