摘　　要：在我国专利法中,"本领域技术人员"作为一个重要的基础概念,实际上是专利创造性判断的一个隐性标准,涉及到专利审查和审判实务等多个程序,并且都作为判断的主体出现。尽管《专利审查指南》对这个概念进行诸多解释,但对于"本领域技术人员"技术水平的判定、所掌握的普通技术知识范围确定等均未明确说明,概念的使用不统一、静态知识范围不清晰、动态能力的大小不明确等问题在司法实践中引起诸多争议。从本领域技术人员与创造性判断之发展的历史脉络入手,结合域外经验,深入分析本领域技术人员特性和功能,以期待多维度认识理解"本领域技术人员",更好地完善我国的专利制度。In China’s Patent Law, ＂technicians in related field＂ is an important and fundamental concept. As a matter of fact, it is an implicit standard for evaluating patent’s non-obviousness and is involved in many procedures including patent examination and trials. Moreover, it is the subject in the above-mentioned procedures, and is responsible for making judgment. Although Guidelines for Patent Examination contains many interpretations on this concept, it says nothing about the evaluation of the capability and common knowledge scope of the ＂technicians in related field＂. Besides, much debate has been arisen in judicial practices due to the incongruous concepts, ambiguous knowledge scope, and uncertain capability assessment. The article sets out by sorting out the historical development of ＂technicians in the related field＂ and creativity, compared with foreign experiences, and carries out in-depth study of the characteristics and functions of ＂technicians in the related field＂, so as to get an all-aspect understanding of the ＂technicians in the related field＂ and help to improve China’s patent system.

关 键 词：本领域技术人员 创造性判断 专利制度
