Patent application documents:
I. Request
A request is a document that the applicant expresses to the Patent Office that he wishes to grant a patent right. Usually, the patent office prints a fixed form and the applicant fills it out as required. The content of the request mainly involves two items. One is invention-creation, that is, the name and design of an invention or utility model. The request for a design patent shall also specify the name and category of the product using the design.
Second, the instructions for use
Description is an important part and the longest part of the patent application document for invention and utility model, which is used to explain the essential content of the invention or utility model. Description has two important functions:
First, according to the principle of patent system technology disclosure, it plays the role of technology content disclosure. The applicant will disclose the contents of the invention to the public through the specification. It is the disclosure of this technology that will become a further inspiration and catalyst, and contribute to the exchange and rapid development of science and technology. Only on the premise that the technology is open can the patent law grant the exclusive right to invention.
Second, the role of defining and explaining the scope of patent right. The specification is the basis for the inventor to write the claim. After the patent is granted, the specification becomes a certificate of rights indicating the scope of the patent. The technical features disclosed in the specification directly determine the scope of the patent right. Inventors have made great contributions to technological innovation and enjoyed a wide range of patent rights.
