Oracle Lighting has announced that it has successfully defended its intellectual property rights regarding its Vector LED Grille System by winning its legal battle against a Chinese-based manufacturer of imitation products. |
Chinese Court Sides with Oracle Lighting in Case Against Counterfeit Producers in China
Oracle Lighting has announced that it has successfully defended its intellectual property rights by recently winning its legal battle against a Chinese-based manufacturer of imitation products.
“Shortly after we unveiled our Vector LED Grille System at a trade show in 2017, Chinese knockoffs began appearing,” explained Justin Hartenstein, director of product development at Oracle Lighting. “After nearly a year of work designing and developing this product, it was honestly heartbreaking to find knockoff products pop up online. I had seen this happen before to other manufacturers in our industry and decided that we were not going to stand for this blatant design theft. We worked with our IP attorney, Jeffrey Banyas of Edwin A. Sisson, Attorney at Law LLC, to develop and execute a strategy to take action against the overseas knockoff producers. I knew it would not be easy but I had no idea where this journey would take us.”
The decision was issued on June 28, 2020, by the Intellectual Property Division of the Suzhou Intermediate People’s Court (Case No. [2019] Suzhou 05 Intellectual Property First Instance No.580). The court found that the defendant’s products fall into the scope of protection of Oracle Lighting’s Chinese Design Patent Registration No. ZL201830136860.7, and thus infringes the patent.
The court’s decision includes an order for the defendant to immediately cease infringing upon Oracle Lighting’s patent. The court also ordered the defendant pay significant monetary damages to Oracle Lighting and ordered that the defendant pay certain court costs associated with the litigation. In doing so, the court also rejected the defendant’s arguments that they had come up with the design for this particular grill prior to Oracle Lighting filing its design patent application.
“In order for us to file litigation against the infringing company, the Chinese court explained that we had to first complete a ‘notarized purchase,’ which basically translates to us having to conduct our own sting operation,” Hartenstein continued. “Our attorney assisted us in hiring private investigators overseas who, after months of investigation, used a cover story to gain access to the factory and, with hidden cameras, obtained evidence of the counterfeit parts. The entire operation had to be covert because these factories producing knockoff goods are often designed to be packed up and moved overnight, making them hard to pin down. Once our legal team in China presented this evidence to the judge, the court issued a demand to the factory to shut down production and the nearly two-year-long litigation process began. This was a massive undertaking for our company but I pursued this in the hope that it provides insight for other small businesses trying to protect their intellectual property rights overseas. It was not easy but these results demonstrate that even overseas counterfeiters can be held accountable. Oracle Lighting takes our intellectual property rights very seriously and we are willing to do whatever it takes to prevent the blatant theft of our patented designs.”
Designed for use on the Jeep Wrangler, Oracle Lighting’s Vector Grill has earned the company awards from SEMA, including a 2018 Global Media Award and a runner-up award for the SEMA Best New Exterior Accessory Product of 2019. The Court’s decision is still subject to an appeal to the Jiangsu Higher Court.

Stewart, who also owns Eldora Speedway in Ohio, is expected to participate as one of the 12 drivers. Additional drivers have not been announced. The races are set to feature around 90 minutes of racing with no pit stops, but instead a halftime period where drivers, crew chiefs and teams will be able to discuss race strategy and make adjustments. Stewart and Evernham have also teamed up with former NASCAR COO and former IMG Sports and Entertainment president George Pyne and Sandy Montag, CEO for talent representation firm The Montag Group.

![]() The classic early Bronco, at right, is the inspiration for the all new ’21 Bronco lineup, which includes two- and four-door models and a wide range of models and configurations. |
The all-new Bronco re-enters the scene with an all-4x4 lineup, with production beginning in early 2021 and first models arriving in Ford dealerships next spring. Bronco owners can choose from an extensive lineup of more than 200 factory-backed accessories for maximum personalization, enabling dealers to provide outfitting-on-demand for each customer’s individual adventure needs.
Models range from a base Bronco—a no-frills SUV for those who want to customize their own—to Big Bend, Black Diamond and Outer Banks with a variety of options and colors, topping out with Wildtrak and Badlands for more extreme off-road adventuring. A limited-production First Edition will be offered at launch. Base MSRP will be $29,995.
Two 4x4 systems are offered on all Bronco models, a base setup and advanced 4x4. The base system utilizes a two-speed electronic shift-on-the-fly transfer case, while the optional advanced system features a two-speed electromechanical transfer case that adds an auto mode for on-demand engagement to select between 2H and 4H. Power is distributed to a Dana 44 AdvanTEK solid rear axle and Dana AdvanTEK independent front differential unit—both with available Spicer Performa-TraK electronic locking differentials for improved traction over rough terrain.
Available segment-first Trail Toolbox includes Trail Control—cruise control for low-speed trail driving—while Trail Turn Assist tightens off-road turning radiuses through torque vectoring, and Trail One-Pedal Drive acceleration/braking control makes for more precise slow-mode rock crawling.
![]() Quick-release stowable roof panels will be available on select versions. The instrument package is designed with off-road functionality in mind. An integrated high-strength steel roll cage with integrated air bags is part of an advanced safety package. |
Running gear includes EcoBoost engines with seven-speed manual transmission and available 35-in. tires. Optional features aimed at providing all-terrain capability include 11.6-in. ground clearance, 94.75:1 crawl ratio, maximum 29-degree breakover angle and 37.2-degree departure angle, plus water fording capability of up to 33.5 in. Off-road capability is further reinforced by exposed tow hooks in the front and rear and available heavy-duty modular steel bumpers with integrated Ford Performance accessory winch mount.
The 2.7L EcoBoost V6 engine is projected to produce 310 hp and 400 lb.-ft. of torque, while the 2.3L EcoBoost is targeted to deliver torque of 310 lb.-ft. with an expected 270 hp. For maximum low-speed rock-climbing capability, a segment-first seven-speed (6+1) manual transmission paired with the available advanced 4x4 system with automatic on-demand engagement generates a class-leading available crawler-gear ratio of 94.75:1. An available segment-first SelectShift 10-speed automatic transmission makes for easier driving on- and off-road, while offering a maximum 67.8:1 crawl ratio with the available advanced 4x4 transfer case.
The underside features strategically placed steel shields to protect critical hardware. Higher-capability models get an available front bash plate, plus shields for the engine, transmission, transfer case and fuel tank. For those taking on the roughest rocky trails, Bronco’s available side rock rails are strong enough to support the weight of each side of the vehicle.
A modern high-strength steel roll cage, with integrated side curtain airbags in the upper structure and seats, helps protect passengers from side impacts and complements driver and front passenger airbags. Available Ford Co-Pilot360 driver-assist technologies plus standard AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control and Trailer Sway Control help instill driver confidence.
The instrument panel is inspired by the first-generation model, with gauges and controls clearly visible and intuitive. Colors and materials are inspired by natural palettes and outdoor gear and designed with off-road functionality in mind.
Bronco two-door and four-door models have quick-release stowable roof panels and doors on select versions. Optional available off-road drive technology packages and digital trail mapping allow owners to plan, record and share their experiences via an all-in-one app.
The ’21 Bronco two- and four-door SUVs will be built at Michigan Assembly Plant in Wayne, Michigan, and can be reserved at www.ford.com for $100.
Features include business tools and resources, the latest PRI Trade Show information, industry jobs, a decade of PRI Magazine archives and more.

High-pressure (29,000 psi/2,000 bar) direct-injection fuel injector nozzles increase power and efficiency, reducing fuel consumption.
A new 5.1-gallon diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) tank is located immediately behind the fuel tank with refill location next to the diesel fuel filler. DEF refills align with oil changes lasting up to 10,000 miles. Levels are monitored via a new DEF gauge in the front cluster.
The 3.0L EcoDiesel V-6 engine is produced at the FCA Cento facility in Ferrara, Italy.
