Originality is a very important indicator when applying for a patent. Only the original technical scheme can pass the patent examination and obtain the patent right. Patent originality is not only the basis of technological innovation, but also the necessary condition for enterprises to realize the transformation of technological and commercial value.
The evaluation of patent originality is usually achieved by comparing the differences between the existing technology and the applied technical scheme. Before applying for a patent, the applicant needs to conduct detailed literature research and technical analysis to determine whether its technical scheme is feasible and realizable, and at the same time, do a good job in technical confidentiality.
In the patent examination, the examiner will comprehensively evaluate the applied technical scheme according to relevant laws and regulations and patent examination guidelines, and judge whether it meets the originality requirements stipulated in the patent law. If the examiner thinks that the applied technical scheme is not original, the applicant's application will be rejected.
Patent originality is an important factor in technological innovation. In the current increasingly fierce global market competition, enterprises need to innovate constantly to meet the needs of different markets and enhance their competitiveness and market share. If an enterprise's innovative technology scheme is not original, it is easy to be imitated or copied by others, thus losing its competitive advantage.
In addition, the original technical scheme has brought more business opportunities and commercial value to the enterprise. The grant of patent means that the technical scheme of the enterprise is protected by law, and the enterprise can obtain more profits and business cooperation opportunities by introducing authorization and license. Therefore, protecting and improving patent originality is very important for the development of enterprises.
