摘　　要：我国司法实践中,最高人民法院法官多次通过合理预期来判断是否具有改进动机以作为判决的裁判要旨。BSH家用电器案、蔡艺斌案中,法官均认为当合理预期引入到该方案能够成功解决技术问题或满足达到的效果,则技术人员有动机去对现有技术进行这样的改进。文章通过分析一个二审案例得出创造性判断实践中存在未应用合理成功预期的问题,并进一步对合理成功预期标准不一的原因进行了剖析,同时,通过横向比较、借鉴美国、欧洲合理成功预期的法律规定和实践,提出客观合理成功预期的方法,并尝试对进一步完善《专利审查指南》提出建议。In judicial practice in our country,judges of the Supreme People’s Court have repeatedly judged whether there is a motivation for improvement through reasonable expectations as the main point of their judgments.In both the BSH Home Appliances case and the Cai Yibin case,the judges believed that when it was reasonably expected that the introduced solution would successfully solve the technical problem or achieve the desired effect,the technicians had the motivation to make such improvements to the existing technology.This article analyzes a second instance case and finds that there is a problem of not applying reasonable expectation of success in the practice of creative improvement motivation.It further analyzes the reasons for the inconsistent standards of reasonable expectation of success,and at the same time horizontally compares the legal provisions and practices of reasonable expectation of success in the United States and Europe.Finally,it proposes an objective method of reasonable expectation of success and attempts to make suggestions for revising the Guidelines for Patent Examination.
