Patent agencies use other people's identity patents

As an individual, the patent applicant can use the technology described in the patent application to the company by signing a license agreement with the company. At this time, the patent application right still belongs to the patent applicant, and the company only has the right to use it under the conditions of time and space stipulated in the license agreement, but has no ownership.

The relationship between patent inventor, applicant and patentee;

1. The inventor, applicant and patentee of a patent can be the same person (natural person), and the inventor must be a natural person, and the applicant can be a natural person, industrial and mining enterprise, university or institution.

2. Patent applicants are patentees (natural persons, industrial and mining enterprises, universities and institutions), and patent inventors are not necessarily patentees or patent applicants.

Generally speaking, the inventor, designer and patent applicant are the same person. However, in the following cases, the applicant for a patent is not an inventor or designer:

1) Where another person obtains the right to apply for a patent for invention-creation from the inventor or designer through a contract and applies for a patent. It should be noted that if an inventor or designer transfers his patent application right after filing a patent application, he shall submit the transfer contract to the Patent Office for the record, and the contract shall take effect after being registered by the Patent Office.

2) The successor of the invention-creation obtains the right to apply for a patent for the invention-creation through inheritance. To inherit the patent right being applied for, a request must be made to the Patent Office to change the applicant.

3) The law directly grants the patent application right to others other than the inventor or designer. The applicant for service invention-creation is the unit where the inventor or designer works.

Inventors and designers must be natural persons, such as Li Si.
