Can the trademark name and trademark pattern be used separately and protected at the same time?

Can be used separately. If registered separately, it is protected by law.

Article 51 of the Trademark Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates that the exclusive right to register a trademark is limited to the trademark that has been approved for registration and the goods that have been approved for use.

According to legal provisions, if a trademark contains graphics and text, it should be used as a whole. If you need to use it separately, you can register the text and graphics separately, so that there is no problem even if they are used together. However, in reality, there are many cases of irregular use of registered trademarks. If the industrial and commercial authorities do not investigate and deal with them, separate use should not be a big problem. However, if you want to fully protect your exclusive rights to trademarks, it is recommended to register them separately, which will be more convenient to use. For example, when I registered a trademark, I used the name ABC and designed a D-shaped pattern as my logo. However, the name ABC does not appear in my D pattern, just a separate shape pattern. After registration in this way, will my trademark name ABC and D-shaped pattern be protected? When using it, for example, can the ABC name or D-shaped pattern appear alone on the outer packaging of the product?
