2. Application process. Applicants must first make clear what type of patent they are applying for, and then they can search for the same type of patent. College students can complete this step by themselves, or entrust an agency to conduct a more comprehensive search, which is also a process that has to be carried out to ensure the uniqueness of patents.
3. Submit the application. Prepare the relevant materials, determine the application type, and after completing the search, the applicant can directly submit and enter the application step. If the steps before submission have not been completed, the applicant must carefully check whether there are any mistakes in the whole process and solve the related problems in time in order to make the final submission. After successful submission, if the applicant passes the examination, then the applicant can get the admission notice.
4. Be sure to search before applying. If others have done the same work as you, don't invent the wheel again.
If others don't make innovations similar to their own, don't publish papers with similar themes of invention patents first.
Pay attention to writing files in the correct format. The file format can refer to patents granted by others, and can be retrieved and downloaded in the lower right corner of official website, China National Intellectual Property Administration.
After writing and submitting the application documents, we should pay attention to fee reduction, timely payment and reply to the audit opinions.
It is recommended to submit an electronic version of the application, which belongs to the field of new energy, environmental protection and strategic support technology, and can be reviewed first.
