It took us 20,000 times.<\/p>\n<p>In 2020, with constant improvements to our daily work, we have invented something that hasn&#8217;t been available in Estonia or anywhere else.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>We were able to perform dynamic oil changes about 2 times faster than anyone else.<\/li>\n<li>The result of the oil change (cleanliness of the gearbox) was better than that of the competitors, even with less oil.<\/li>\n<li>Testing our gearboxes before the oil change ensured that already excessively worn gearboxes do not make it to the oil change.<\/li>\n<li>We had developed a method of gradually loading the gearbox and increasing the temperature, which allowed us to diagnose gearboxes much better than before.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We started recording and patenting our knowledge at the end of 2020, and more than 4 years later, on 07.01.2025, the European patent <strong>EP4033125 <\/strong>&#8211; A DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CHANGING TECHNICAL FLUID OF AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION was registered in the entire European Union.<\/p>\n<p>This means that the H\u00f5benool patent is valid in 18 EU member states: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Estonia, the Netherlands, Italy, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Latvia, Malta, Portugal, France, Sweden, Romania, Germany, Slovenia, Finland and Denmark. The number of countries may increase in the future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What does the patent protect?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>A European patent (unlike, for example, an Estonian patent) allows several &#8220;things&#8221; to be combined in one patent, and thus we were able to obtain European protection for several devices and methods we invented. The following are now protected as intellectual property:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Equipment<\/strong> used to perform oil changes in H\u00f5benool.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The method<\/strong> by which we perform a dynamic oil change.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Control mechanisms<\/strong>, how gearboxes are tested on the road with a computer before an oil change.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A method<\/strong> of assessing internal leaks, clutch wear, and overall health of transmissions by varying the load on the transmission.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The principle of patenting is that anything that is novel must be accurately recorded so that others do not use it without permission.<\/p>\n<p>In essence, however, this does not mean that everyone who reads the patent can now immediately perform an oil change or diagnostics using a similar method.<\/p>\n<p>Far from it, because the patent protects general principles, but the experience, knowledge, and even gut feeling that comes from dealing with tens of thousands of gearboxes &#8211; luckily, they cannot be transferred to others. They are and will remain at H\u00f5benool.<\/p>\n<p>The patent is available as a PDF here &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/data.epo.org\/publication-server\/rest\/v1.0\/publication-dates\/20220727\/patents\/EP4033125NWA1\/document.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meie t\u00f6\u00f6meetoditele ja seadmetele registreeriti 07.01.2025 terves Euroopa Liidus Euroopa patent EP4033125.
