摘　　要：专利申请人在专利申请过程中,为获得专利权目的,限制其相对广泛的权利要求,禁止反悔原则禁止专利权人重新获得放弃主题的保护。美国禁止反悔的相关经典案例说明美国禁止反悔理论越来越严格,从而可以使专利权利要求书的公示功能得到最大程度的完善。同时在法院判定禁止反悔的程序中,适用禁止反悔的理由主要包括与可专利性相关的修改,主动放弃权利要求和无法解释权利要求的修改三种情况。与此相对应,专利权人反驳适用禁止反悔的抗辩事由,主要包括不可预见的后发技术和表达性修改。我国禁止反悔的相关法律规定,应结合美国的禁止反悔理论,对我国禁止反悔理论进行补充完善。In the process of patent application,for the purpose of obtaining the patent right,the patent applicant limits its relatively broad claims.The principle of estoppel prohibits the patentee from obtaining the protection of the abandoned subject again.The relevant classic cases of estoppel in the United Statesshowthat the theory of estoppel in the United States is becoming more and more strict,which can improve the publicity function of patent claims to the greatest extent.Inthe procedure for the court to determine estoppel,the reasons for the application of estoppelmainly include the modification related to patentability,the active waiver of claims and the modification of claims that cannot be explained.Accordinglythe patentee's defense against the application of estoppel,mainly include unforeseeable latecomer technology and expressive modification.Finally,the relevant legal provisions of estoppel in Chinashould be be supplementedin combination with the theory of estoppel in the United States.
