What this record means
The record shows that “ELM RAY” is a live, Principal Register registration owned by Dongguan Yiwubai Internet Technology Co., Ltd., and it was officially registered on July 19 2022 after publication for opposition on May 3 2022. The registration covers only the goods listed in International Class 022 – various non‑metal ropes, strings, belts, hemp nettings, synthetic straps, plastic twist ties, wax ends and yarn fibers used for handling loads, packing, or securing items. Because the protection is limited to those specific rope‑ and binding‑related products, a similar name used for unrelated goods such as software, clothing or food would be farther from the scope shown here, though the record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “ELM RAY.” The prosecution history shows a straightforward examination with approval for publication and registration, and there are no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions noted. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market rope‑type products under a similar name, but the risk is lower for dissimilar categories.
