American patent literature
200 1 comprehensively adjusts the type identification code of the American patent specification, and the adjusted code is in the brackets below. At present, the published patent specification has the following types:
UnitedStatesUtilityPatent, document type identifier A(B 1, B2)
This is a patent specification published when an application for a patent for invention was granted a patent right after substantive examination, accounting for more than 95% of the total patent literature in the United States. Published from 1790. The use of some INID codes in the title page of this patent specification embodies many characteristics of American patent law:
[75] Inventor
The United States implements the first invention system. When there are multiple applications for the same invention, according to the provisions of the patent law of the United States, the patent right will be granted to the person who completed the invention first, not to the person who filed the application first. In this way, inventors can engage in research and experiments with peace of mind without worrying about other people's prior applications. However, this principle only applies to inventions made by Americans in the United States. Foreign applications can only be based on the date of filing, and the evidence of invention day outside the United States is invalid. In the revision of the United States Patent Law 1994, the invention evidence presented outside the United States has begun to be recognized.
[22] Date of application
1994 revised American patent law adds a new content-temporary patent application. No formal claims, oaths and statements, relevant materials and prior technology disclosure may be put forward in the provisional patent application. A provisional patent application can be filed within one year after the product (or method) is first sold, first offered for sale and first known to the public, and will automatically expire after one year. It provides conditions for the applicant to evaluate the potential commercial value of the invention; The provisional patent application can determine the patent application date and the priority date of the Paris Convention, allowing multiple applications to be filed first and finally integrated into a formal application.
[63] Continued application/partial continued application data
Continued application and partial continued application are both secondary applications for the same invention. The original application must be a formal patent application first, and the original application is in the stage of waiting for approval. The contents disclosed in the extension application must be the same as those in the original application; However, the partial continuation application increased the undisclosed contents in the original application, making the contents of the original application only a part of the partial continuation application.
Continuing application and partial continuing application are generally put forward because the inventor has made new improvements to the contents of the original application. Only the contents already described in the original application can enjoy the filing date of the original application. (See Figure 3-3)
The writing of the American patent specification is quite distinctive, and each part is guided by a subtitle, which is clear at a glance. Generally include:
l
Background of the invention: Explain the technical field, existing technical situation and existing shortcomings of the invention; And how to solve the problem.
l
Summary of the invention: Summarize the content of the invention.
l
Brief description of the drawings: briefly explain the citation method of the drawings.
l
Detailed description of the preferred embodiment: Describe the content of the invention in detail, completely and clearly, so that any ordinary engineer familiar with the technical field of the invention can make and use the invention after reading it. The present invention, if attached, should be interpreted in combination. This is the main part of the patent specification, which provides the best solution to technical problems.
l
Declaration: At the end of a specification, a declaration usually begins with "What is declared:".
Patent application is open, and the document type identification code is A 1.
This is an application specification for invention patent published from the official patent application date (or priority date) 18 months according to the provisions of the American Inventors Protection Act 1999. Since March, 2000 1 51day, it has only been published in electronic form every Thursday and can be obtained from the following US Patent and Trademark Office websites:

American plant patent, document type identification code P(P3 P2)
This is a plant patent specification published from 1930. The attached drawings of the plant patent reveal all the remarkable features of the plant. When color is the distinguishing feature of new varieties, the attached drawings must be colored. (See Figure 3-4)
Redistributed patent document type identification code e
The republished patents are translated into republished patents and republished patents, which are published in 1838 and numbered separately. This is an invention patent that the inventor found that all or part of the effectiveness of the original patent was affected by non-deceptive errors or the claim was too wide or too narrow within 2 years after the patent was granted. At this time, the United States Patent and Trademark Office can modify the above problems according to the re-published patent application submitted by the inventor, and grant the re-published patent. The patent number is prefixed with "re", and the title page also contains relevant information of the original patent. Claims can be amended in the re-published patent, but no new substantive content is allowed. The deleted parts in the original manual should be marked with double brackets, and the newly added parts should be printed in italics to show the difference. (See Figure 3-7)
Re-examination certificate, literature type identification code B 1, B2(C 1, C3 C2).
The United States began to implement the second interview system in July 198 1. After the patent is granted, the US Patent and Trademark Office will issue a reexamination certificate and give a reply to anyone who challenges the patent by citing the existing technology within the validity period of the patent.
After the patent specification is examined. The original patent number is still used, but "B 1" is added before the original patent number. The first re-examination certificate was issued on February 29th, 198 165438. There are "request for reexamination" and "original patent reexamination certificate" on the title page of the specification. When the original conclusion is still maintained after re-examination, the title page indicates that "this patent has not been modified"; When the content is modified after review, it will be indicated on the title page that "this patent is hereby modified as follows".
Legal invention registration, document type identification number H.
The invention registered according to law was originally called defense publication, and was renamed as 1985. An invention registered according to law is not a patent. It has the defensive characteristics of a patent, but it does not have the implementation characteristics of a patent.
When an inventor thinks that his invention is not worth or unwilling to apply for a formal patent, but he is afraid that others will apply for a patent for the same invention, it is not good for him. In this case, legally registered inventions are an option. This can make the same invention lose its novelty, thus protecting the interests of the inventor. (See Figure 3-6)
American design patent, document type identification code S.
Published in 1843. Like other countries, the design is published in the gazette. (See Figure 3-5)
200 1 1 2. In its published patent documents, the United States began to comprehensively identify the types of patent documents in the standard 1 6 formulated by WIPO PCIPI. The following table lists the changes of document type identification codes with the boundary of 200 1 1 2.
