Ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo, zimbalwa izinto ezinokusothusa ngeli xesha malunga nomba wamalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza. I-Apple yingcaphephe kwilungelo elilodwa lomenzi wechiza kuyo yonke into ekholelwa ukuba inokuyisebenzisa kwixesha elizayo okanye inokuyinika imali ekuhambeni kwexesha ukuba umntu uyafuna. sebenzisa obu buchwepheshe bunelungelo elilodwa lomenzi wechiza.
Kule meko sijongene ne-patent ehambelana ngqo ne-Apple Watch kwaye ngaphezu kwewotshi ngokwayo, kwiintambo zayo. Ilungelo lomenzi elitsha le-Apple elibhaliswe kwi-United States Patent kunye ne-Ofisi yophawu loRhwebo isibonisa "uhlengahlengiso oluzenzekelayo lwezixhobo zombane eziphathwayo" oko kukuthi, iintambo zokuzilungisa.
Umtya ngokwawo wongeza uluhlu lwezinzwa ezimisela ukulungelelaniswa kwewotshi esihlahleni, ukuvumela uhlengahlengiso oluzenzekelayo xa ilixesha lokubeka iwotshi. Ngokucacileyo umtya wongeza inketho yokukhulula umtya nangaliphi na ixesha kunye nokwenzeka kokuqina okanye ukukhulula ngesandla. Ukwenza le nkqubo Ilungelo elilodwa lomenzi wechiza lithetha ngeevalvu, iindawo ezinokuhanjiswa kunye neengxowa zegesi ukwenza yonke imisebenzi eneenkcukacha.
Kule meko, imitya ecetywa ngu-Apple ngokungathandabuzekiyo iya kuba ngqindilili ngakumbi kuneyangoku, akukho ntetho yobungakanani okanye ukubanakho ukusebenzisa le patent kungekudala. Kubonakala ngathi le ntengiso ye-Apple Watch inokwandiswa ngokuhambelana nezixhobo, iintambo okanye ezifanayo kwixesha elizayo, kodwa akufanele sicinge ukuba oku kuya kuba yinyani. Sele sibonile amanye amalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza afunyenwe yi-Apple asele kuloo nto, amalungelo abenzi abhalisiweyo.
