This necessarily implies that it is a non-distinctive sign as it will not be perceived as an indicator of commercial origin.
To nujno pomeni, da je nerazlikovalni znak, ki se ne bo zaznal kot označba trgovskega izvora.

(ga ni) 9, 38 in 41 Čeprav se lahko zvok glede nekega blaga ali storitev običajno uporabi za prepoznavanje tega, da proizvod ali storitev izvira iz nekega podjetja, se ta zvok ne sme zaznavati kot (i) funkcionalni element niti kot (ii) označba brez lastnih značilnosti.
In particular, a sound sign characterised by excessive simplicity will not be perceived as a trade mark.
Zlasti zvočni znak, za katerega je značilna pretirana preprostost, se ne zazna kot blagovna znamka.
In the present case, the mark applied for is a very simple sound motif, that is to say, in essence, a banal and commonplace ringing sound that would generally go unnoticed and would not be remembered by the target consumer.
V tem primeru je znamka, za katero je vložena prijava, zelo preprost zvočni motiv, ki je pravzaprav vsakdanji in običajni zvok zvonjenja, ki se na splošno ne opazi in si ga povprečen potrošnik ne bi zapomnil.

4.2 Presoja figurativnega praga 29
A sign must be refused as descriptive if it has a meaning that is immediately perceived by the relevant public as providing information about the goods and services applied for.
Znak se zavrne kot opisen, če ima pomen, ki ga upoštevna javnost takoj prepozna kot navajanje informacij o blagu in storitvah, za katere je vložena prijava.
This is the case where the sign provides information about, inter alia, the quantity, quality, characteristics, purpose, kind and/or size of the goods or services.
To se zgodi, kadar znak med drugim navaja informacije o količini, kakovosti, značilnostih, namenu, vrsti in/ali velikosti blaga ali storitev.
The relationship between the term and the goods and services must be sufficiently direct and specific (20/07/2004, T311/02, Limo, EU:T:2004:245, § 30; 30/11/2004, T173/03, Nurseryroom, EU:T:2004:347, § 20), as well as concrete, direct and understood without further reflection (26/10/2000, T345/99, Trustedlink, EU:T:2000:246, § 35).
Zveza med izrazom in blagom mora biti zadostna in konkretna (20/07/2004, T311/02, Limo, EU:T:2004:245, § 30 in 30/11/2004, T173/03, Nurseryroom, EU:T:2004:347, § 20) ter stvarna, neposredna in razumljiva brez dodatnega razmišljanja (26/10/2000, T345/99, Trustedlink, EU:T:2000:246, § 35).
If a mark is descriptive, it is also non-distinctive.
Če je znamka opisna, nima razlikovalnega učinka.
Article 7(1)(c) EUTMR does not apply to those terms that are only suggestive or allusive as regards certain characteristics of the goods and/or services.
Člen 7(1)(c) Uredbe o blagovni znamki EU se ne uporablja za izraze, ki le spominjajo ali namigujejo na nekatere lastnosti blaga in/ali storitev.
Sometimes this is also referred to as vague or indirect references to the goods and/or services (31/01/2001, T135/99, Cine Action, EU:T:2001:30, § 29).
Včasih se to imenuje tudi nerazločno ali posredno sklicevanje na blago in/ali storitve (31/01/2001, T135/99, Cine Action, EU:T:2001:30, § 29).
The public interest underlying Article 7(1)(c) EUTMR is that exclusive rights should not exist for purely descriptive terms that other traders might wish to use as well.
Člen 7(1)(c) Uredbe o blagovni znamki EU temelji na javnem interesu, da izključne pravice ne smejo veljati za povsem opisne izraze, ki bi jih morda želeli uporabiti tudi drugi trgovci.
However, it is not necessary for the Office to show that there is already a descriptive use by the applicant or its competitors.
Vendar Uradu ni treba dokazati, da prijavitelj ali njegovi konkurenti že uporabljajo opisne izraze.
Consequently, the number of competitors that could be affected is totally irrelevant.
Zato je število konkurentov, ki bi jih to lahko prizadelo, popolnoma nepomembno.
Therefore, if a word is descriptive in its ordinary and plain meaning, this ground for refusal cannot be overcome by showing that the applicant is the only person who produces, or is capable of producing, the goods in question.
Če je torej beseda opisna v svojem običajnem in jasnem pomenu, tega razloga za zavrnitev ni mogoče odpraviti z dokazovanjem, da je prijavitelj edina oseba, ki proizvaja ali je sposobna proizvajati zadevno blago.
1.2 The reference base
Referenčna osnova
The reference base is the ordinary understanding of the relevant public of the word in question.
Referenčna osnova pomeni, kako upoštevna javnost razume zadevno besedo.
That can be corroborated by dictionary entries, examples of the use of the term in a descriptive manner found on internet websites, or it may clearly follow from the ordinary understanding of the term.
Podprta je lahko s slovarskimi iztočnicami, opisnimi primeri uporabe izraza na spletnih straneh ali jasnim pomenom, ki izhaja iz običajnega razumevanja izraza.
It is not necessary for the Office to prove that the word is the subject of a dictionary entry in order to refuse a sign.
Uradu ni treba nujno dokazati, da je beseda predmet slovarske iztočnice, zato da bi zavrnil znak.
In particular for composite terms, dictionaries do not mention all possible combinations.
Zlasti pri sestavljenih izrazih v slovarjih niso navedene vse mogoče kombinacije.
What matters is the ordinary and plain meaning.
Pomemben je običajen in jasen pomen.
In addition, terms used as specialised terminology to designate the respective relevant characteristics of the goods and services are to be considered descriptive.
Poleg tega se za izraze, ki se uporabljajo kot specializirana terminologija za označevanje ustreznih pomembnih značilnosti blaga in storitev, šteje, da so opisni.
In these cases it is not required to demonstrate that the meaning of the term is immediately apparent to the relevant consumers to which the goods and services are addressed.
V teh primerih ni treba dokazati, da je pomen izraza takoj očiten upoštevnim potrošnikom, ki so jim blago in storitve namenjene.
It suffices that the term is meant to be used, or could be understood by part of the relevant public, as a description of the goods or services for which protection is sought, or a characteristic of the goods and services (17/09/2008, T226/07, Pranahaus, EU:T:2008:381, § 36; 18/11/2015, T558/14, TRILOBULAR, EU:T:2015:858, § 50).
Zadostuje, da se izraz namerava uporabiti ali bi ga del upoštevne javnosti lahko razumel kot opis blaga ali storitev, za katere se zahteva varstvo, ali značilnosti blaga in storitev (17/09/2008, T226/07, Pranahaus, EU:T:2008:381, § 36 in 18/11/2015, T558/14, TRILOBULAR, EU:T:2015:858, § 50).
Article 7(1)(c) EUTMR also applies to transliterations.
Člen 7(1)(c) Uredbe o blagovni znamki EU se uporablja tudi za prečrkovanje.
In particular, transliterations of Greek words into Latin characters must be treated in the same way for the purpose of examining absolute grounds for refusal as words written in Greek characters and vice versa (16/12/2010, T281/09, Chroma, EU:T:2010:537, § 34).
Zlasti prečrkovanje grških besed v latinske znake za presojo absolutnih razlogov za zavrnitev je treba izenačiti z besedami, ki so zapisane z grškimi znaki, in obratno (16/12/2010, T281/09, Chroma, EU:T:2010:537, § 34).
This is because the Latin alphabet is known to Greek-speaking consumers.
Grško govoreči potrošniki poznajo latinsko abecedo.
The same applies to the Cyrillic alphabet, which is used in the EU by Bulgarians, who are also familiar with Latin characters.
Enako velja za cirilsko abecedo, ki jo v EU uporabljajo Bolgari, ki poznajo tudi latinske znake.
The following principles in respect of both language and dictionary use apply, with regard to the reference base:
V zvezi z referenčno osnovo veljajo naslednja načela glede jezikovne in slovarske uporabe:
Languages
Jeziki
The sign must be refused if it is descriptive in any of the official languages of the European Union, regardless of the size or population of the respective country.
Znak je treba zavrniti, če je opisen v katerem koli od uradnih jezikov Evropske unije ne glede na velikost ali število prebivalstva zadevne države.
Systematic language checks are only performed in the official languages of the European Union.
Sistematična jezikovna preverjanja se izvajajo samo v uradnih jezikih Evropske unije.
Should there be convincing evidence that a given term has a meaning in a language other than the official languages of the Union and is understood by a significant section of the relevant public in at least a part of the European Union, this term must also be refused pursuant to Article 7(2) EUTMR (13/09/2012, T72/11, Espetec, EU:T:2012:424, § 35-36).
Če obstajajo prepričljivi dokazi, da ima zadevni izraz pomen v jeziku, ki ni eden od uradnih jezikov Unije, in ga razume znaten del upoštevne javnosti v vsaj delu Evropske unije, je treba ta izraz prav tako zavrniti na podlagi člena 7(2) Uredbe o blagovni znamki EU (13/09/2012, T72/11, Espetec, EU:T:2012:424, § 35-36).
For example, the term ‘Hellim' is the Turkish translation of the word ‘Halloumi', a type of cheese.
Na primer, izraz „Hellim“ je turški prevod besede „Halloumi“, ki se nanaša na vrsto sira.
Since Turkish is an official language in Cyprus, it is a language that is understood and spoken by part of the population of Cyprus, and therefore the average consumer in Cyprus may understand that ‘Hellim' is a descriptive term for cheese (13/06/2012, T534/10, Hellim, EU:T:2012:292).
Ker je turščina uradni jezik na Cipru, ga razume in govori del ciprskega prebivalstva, zato lahko povprečen potrošnik na Cipru razume, da je „Hellim“ opisni izraz za sir (13/06/2012, T534/10, Hellim, EU:T:2012:292).
Under point 1 above, consideration must, under certain circumstances, be given to the understanding by the relevant public of foreign terms in the sense that they originate from another EU language.
V točki 1 zgoraj je treba v nekaterih okoliščinah upoštevati, da upoštevna javnost razume tuje izraze v smislu, da izvirajo iz drugega jezika EU.
This may be because, depending on the goods and services claimed in the EUTM application, the relevant public:
Tako je lahko zaradi tega, ker glede blaga in storitev, za katere se v prijavi blagovne znamke EU zahteva varstvo, upoštevna javnost:
has an elementary understanding of the language in question and the sign consists of an elementary word of that language.
ima osnovno raven znanja zadevnega jezika, znak pa sestavlja osnovna beseda tega jezika.
This is supported by the fact that the GC has held that a very large proportion of European consumers and professionals have an elementary knowledge of English (26/09/2012, T301/09, Citigate, EU:T:2012:473, § 41);
To podpira dejstvo, da je Splošno sodišče menilo, da ima zelo velik del evropskih potrošnikov in strokovnjakov osnovno raven znanja angleščine (26/09/2012, T301/09, Citigate, EU:T:2012:473, § 41);
consists of specialists for whom certain technical terms in another EU Member State's official language are understood:
je sestavljena iz strokovnjakov, ki nekatere tehnične izraze razumejo v uradnem jeziku druge države EU:
The GC has held that certain English terms in the medical field (29/03/2012, T242/11, 3D eXam, EU:T:2012:179, § 26), in technical fields (09/03/2012, T172/10, Base-seal, EU:T:2012:119, § 54) and in financial matters (26/09/2012, T301/09, Citigate, EU:T:2012:473, § 41) will be understood by the relevant professionals throughout the European Union, as English is the commonly used professional language in these areas;
Splošno sodišče je menilo, da bodo upoštevni strokovnjaki v Evropski uniji razumeli nekatere angleške izraze s področja medicine (29/03/2012, T242/11, 3D eXam, EU:T:2012:179, § 26), tehničnih področij (09/03/2012, T172/10, Base-seal, EU:T:2012:119, § 54) in s področja finančnih zadev (26/09/2012, T301/09, Citigate, EU:T:2012:473, § 41), saj je angleščina običajni strokovni jezik na teh področjih;
understands the meaning in cases where a term in one language (e.g. English) has entered into the dictionary or parlance of another language (e.g. German) and acquired a descriptive character that may or may not exist in the original language (e.g. the sign ‘Old Timer' applied for cars would be objectionable with regard to the German-speaking public as a reference to ‘classic/veteran car' and not necessarily for the English-speaking consumers).
razume pomen, kadar je bil izraz iz enega jezika (npr. angleščine) sprejet v slovar ali besedišče drugega jezika (npr. nemščine) in je pridobil opisni značaj, ki morda obstaja ali ne v izvirnem jeziku (npr. znak „Old Timer“ za avtomobile bi bil kot izraz za klasično/veteransko vozilo sporen za nemško govorečo javnost, a ne nujno tudi za angleško govoreče potrošnike).
The evidence can come by individual knowledge of the particular examiner, or is produced via third-party observations or by way of documentation included in cancellation requests.
Dokazi lahko izhajajo iz osebnega znanja posameznega preizkuševalca ali pripomb tretjih oseb oziroma dokumentacije, vključene v zahteve za izbris.
An internet search is also a valid means of evidence for the descriptive meaning, in particular for new terms, technical jargon or slang words, but the evidence should be carefully assessed in order to find out whether the word is actually used in a descriptive manner, as often the difference between descriptive and trade mark use on the internet is vague and the internet contains a vast amount of unstructured, unverified information or statements.
Spletna raziskava je prav tako veljavno dokazno sredstvo glede opisnega pomena, zlasti za nove izraze, tehnični žargon ali slengovske besede, vendar je treba pozorno proučiti, da se ugotovi, ali se beseda dejansko uporablja opisno, ker je razlika med opisno uporabo izraza in njegovo uporabo kot blagovne znamke na spletu pogosto nejasna in ker je mogoče tam najti ogromno nestrukturiranih, nepreverjenih informacij ali izjav.
The objection should clearly state which language or languages are concerned, which makes the ground for refusal applicable at least for the Member State in which this language is the official language or one of the official languages, and excludes conversion for that Member State (see Article 140(4) EUTMR).
V ugovoru mora biti jasno navedeno, kateri jezik ali več jezikov je upoštevnih, ker na tej podlagi razlog za zavrnitev velja vsaj za državo članico, v kateri je ta jezik uradni jezik ali eden od uradnih jezikov, in ker se izključi konverzija za to državo članico (glej člen 140(4) Uredbe o blagovni znamki EU).
1.3 Characteristics mentioned under Article 7(1)(c) EUTMR
Lastnosti, navedene v členu 7(1)(c) Uredbe o blagovni znamki EU
Kind of goods and services
Vrsta blaga in storitev
This includes the goods or services themselves, that is, their type or nature.
To vključuje blago ali storitve, tj. njihovo vrsto ali naravo.
For example, ‘bank' for financial services, Perle' for wines and sparkling wines (01/02/2013, T104/11, Perle', EU:T:2013:51,) or ‘Universaltelefonbuch' for a universal telephone directory (14/06/2001, T357/99 & T358/99, Universaltelefonbuch, EU:T:2001:162) or constituent parts or components of the goods (15/01/2013, T625/11, EcoDoor, EU:T:2013:14, § 26).
Na primer, „banka“ za finančne storitve, Perle' za vina in peneča vina (01/02/2013, T104/11, Perle', EU:T:2013:51), ali „Universaltelefonbuch“ za splošni telefonski imenik (14/06/2001, T357/99 & T358/99, Universaltelefonbuch, EU:T:2001:162), ali sestavne dele ali sestavine blaga (15/01/2013, T625/11, EcoDoor, EU:T:2013:14, § 26).
Quality
Kakovost
This includes both laudatory terms, referring to a superior quality of the respective goods or services, as well as the inherent quality of the goods or services.
To vključuje poveličevalne izraze, ki se sklicujejo na vrhunsko kakovost zadevnega blaga ali storitev in inherentno kakovost blaga ali storitev.
It covers terms such as ‘light', ‘extra', ‘fresh', ‘hyper light' for goods that can be extremely light (27/06/2001, R 1215/20003, Hyperlite).
Zajema lahko izraze, kot je „lahko“, „izjemno“, „sveže“ ali „ultra lahko“ za blago, ki je lahko izjemno lahko (27/06/2001, R 1215/20003, Hyperlite).
In addition, figures may refer to the quality of a product or a service, such as 24/7 for service availability; ‘2000', which refers to the size of the motor or ‘75', which refers to the horse power (kW) of the motor.
Na kakovost proizvoda ali storitve se lahko nanašajo tudi številke, kot je „24/7“ za razpoložljivost storitev, „2 000“, ki se nanaša na velikost motorja, ali „75“ za konjske moči (kW) motorja.
This covers indications of the quantity in which the goods could be sold, such as ‘six pack' for beer, ‘one litre' for drinks, ‘100' (grams) for chocolate bars.
To vključuje navedbe količin, v katerih bi se blago lahko prodajalo, kot so „šesterček“ za pivo, „en liter“ za pijače in „100“ (gramov) za tablico čokolade.
Only quantity measurements relevant in trade, not those that are hypothetically possible, count.
Štejejo se samo količinske mere, ki se uporabljajo v trgovini, in ne tiste, ki so hipotetično mogoče.
For example, 99.999 for bananas would be acceptable.
Na primer, 99.999 za banane bi bilo sprejemljivo.
Intended purpose
Predvideni namen
The intended purpose is the function of a product or service, the result that is expected from its use or, more generally, the use for which the good or service is intended.
Predvideni namen je funkcija proizvoda ali storitve, rezultat, ki se pričakuje na podlagi uporabe, ali, splošneje, uporaba, za katero je namenjeno blago ali storitev.
An example is ‘Trustedlink' for goods and services in the IT sector aimed at securing a safe (trusted) link (26/10/2000, T345/99, Trustedlink, EU:T:2000:246).
Primer je „Trustedlink“ za blago in storitve v sektorju informacijske tehnologije, namenjene zagotavljanju varne (zaupanja vredne) povezave (26/10/2000, T345/99, Trustedlink, EU:T:2000:246).
Marks that have been refused registration on this basis include ‘Therapy' for massage tools (08/09/1999, R 144/19993, THERAPY) and ‘Slim belly' for fitness training apparatus, sport activities, medical and beauty care services (30/04/2013, T61/12, Slim belly, EU:T:2013:226).
Znamke, za katere je bila na podlagi tega zavrnjena registracija, vključujejo „Therapy“ za masažne naprave (08/09/1999, R 144/19993, THERAPY) in „Slim belly“ za naprave za fitnes, športne dejavnosti, zdravstvene in kozmetične storitve (30/04/2013, T61/12, Slim belly, EU:T:2013:226).
This objection also applies as regards accessories: a term that described the type of goods also describes the intended purpose for accessories to those goods.
Ta ugovor velja tudi za dodatke: izraz, ki opisuje vrsto blaga, opisuje tudi predviden namen za dodatke za to blago.
Therefore, ‘New Born Baby' is liable to objection for accessories for dolls and ‘Rockbass' for accessories for rock guitars (08/06/2005, T315/03, Rockbass, EU:T:2005:211 (appeal C301/05 P settled)).
Zato je „New Born Baby“ sporen za dodatke za punčke in „Rockbass“ za dodatke za kitare za igranje rock glasbe (08/06/2005, T315/03, Rockbass, EU:T:2005:211 (pritožba C301/05 P rešena)).
Value
Vrednost
This covers both the (high or low) price to be paid, as well as the value in quality.
To vključuje (visoko ali nizko) ceno, ki jo je treba plačati, in vrednost v smislu kakovosti.
It therefore does not only refer to expressions such as ‘extra' or ‘top', but also expressions such as ‘cheap' or ‘more for your money'.
Zato se ne nanaša le na besede, kot so „izjemno“ ali „vrhunsko“, temveč tudi izraze „poceni“ ali „več za vaš denar“.
It also includes expressions indicating, in common parlance, goods or services that are superior in quality.
Vključuje tudi izraze, ki v običajnem jeziku pomenijo blago ali storitve vrhunske kakovosti.
Geographical origin
Geografski izvor
See paragraph 2.6 below.
Glej odstavek 2.6 zgoraj.
Time of production of the goods or of rendering of the service
Čas proizvodnje blaga ali opravljanja storitve
This covers expressions concerning the time at which services are rendered, either expressly (‘evening news', ‘24 hours') or in a usual manner (24/7).
To vključuje izraze v zvezi s časom, ko se opravljajo storitve, in sicer bodisi izrecno („večerne novice“, „24 ur“) bodisi običajno (24/7).
It also covers the time at which goods are produced if that is relevant for the goods (late vintage for wine).
Zajema tudi čas, ko je blago proizvedeno, če je to pomembno za blago (pozna trgatev za vino).
For wine, the numeral ‘1998' indicating the vintage year would be relevant, but not for chocolate.
Številka „1998“, ki označuje leto trgatve, bi bila pomembna za vino, ne pa tudi za čokolado.
