摘　　要：中国的知识产权法院建设需借鉴他国经验,其中包括作为世界第一知识产权强国的美国。统计数据表明,在此前20年间,美国并没有大量的知识产权民事案件,无论专利、商标或版权案件皆然。良好的司法权威和既有判决的有效指导等,皆有助于控制专利等知识产权案件的发生率。联邦巡回上诉法院30多年的司法实践表明,其设置是极为明智的制度安排。它不仅有效地统一了美国的专利案件判决标准,还加强了专利保护,成为保证美国专利制度充分实施的重要基础,其经验值得中国借鉴。For establishment of its intellectual property court, China needs to learn from other countries including the United States as a country with most intellectual property （IP） rights. Statistical data show that during the past twenty years there have not huge amount of IP cases in the US, including those of the patent, trademark, and copyright. Well established judicial authority and fair guidance of effective IP cases, among others, are helpful to control the incidence of patent or other IP cases. Historical experience in the past thirty years of the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit （CAFC） can imply its construction has been a wise institutional arrangement, for it not only unifies effectively the patent standards in the US, but fortifies the patent protection as well, and the CAFC itself remains a central role for the patent system in the US. The experience of the CAFC could therefore be learned by China for creation of its IP court.
