摘　　要：在全球专利数量日益增长的今天,专利制度对创新的激励作用已不是绝对的正相关,特别是专利丛林所带来的困境直接导致专利系统对创新激励效用的降低。专利丛林的困境日益严重,特别是在新技术研发及实施成本、专利行政机构审批专利、累积性技术行业创新等方面尤为如此。究其根源在于专利丛林的三大成因,即复杂技术的出现、技术领域专利密度的扩增、专利授权初衷的偏离。鉴于此,在结合其他国家现有做法以及相关学者观点的基础上,提出从利用专利局收费机制的杠杆作用调整控制企业的专利行为、适度提高专利授权门槛、控制累积性技术领域专利数量增长这三个维度给出解决方案。Currently, with the worldwide increasing number of patents, the relation between the patent mechanism and innovation is no more absolutely positive, especially the problems created by the patent thicket directly lead to the degradation of the stimulating function of patent mechanism. The situation of patent thicket is getting worse, particular in the cost of research and test of new technology, the patent approval process and the innovation of the accumulative-technology industries. Three factors of the formation ofpatem thicket can account for the situation, which are the appearance of complicated technology, the expansion of patent density in technology industry and the deviation from the original intention of patent authorization. Thus, this paper, after combining the practice of other countries and some related theoretical knowledge, proposes that the function of lever of the patent office＇s chafing mechanism should be used to adjust and control the patenting behaviors of enterprises, to properly improve the conditions of patent authorization and to control the patent amount in accumulative-technology field.
