Research on the Evolution Trend and Competitive Pattern of International Sports Patents
Based on the international comparative perspective,taking sports patents as the start-ing point,taking the patents in the field of"sports,games and recreational activities"in the In-ternational Patent Classification system as the entry point.This study takes the sports patents in the PatSnap Patent Global Database as the object of investigation.A multi-dimensional analysis of the evolutionary trends and competitive pattern of international sports patents was conducted by using a combination of quantitative,qualitative,proposed quantitative and graphical analy-ses.The results show that,in terms of evolutionary trends,the regional distribution of global sports patents from 1975 to 2023 is mainly concentrated in Japan,the United States,and China,which account for a total of 89.49%of the global sports patent disclosures.The technology life cycle of sports patents goes through the periods of technology germination and technology growth.In terms of competitiveness pattern,it takes the lead in the number of valid sports pat-ents and shows excellent competitiveness in terms of highly cited sports patents and core sports patent applicants in Japan.It has the most frequently cited sports patents and is the main innova-tion leader in the field of sports patents in the United States.It has a large number of sports pat-ent inventors in China,and the distribution pattern of sports patent technologies and applicants is relatively balanced,but there is still much room for development in terms of highly cited sports patents and core sports patent applicants.Based on this,it urgently needs to achieve a bal-ance between"quality"and"quantity"in order to realise the sustainable and in-depth develop-ment of sports patents in China,focus on promoting the development of new quality productive forces,and accelerate the construction of the leading sports nation.
