When applying for a patent, how should individuals and enterprises apply for registration, in their own name or in the name of the company?

Hello, there is no restriction on the applicant in patent application, which can be a natural person, a legal person or other organizations, but the inventor must be a natural person. The significance of the applicant lies in the ownership of the patent right, that is, no matter who the applicant is, the patent right belongs to him. So you must first find out who your patent belongs to. If it is a job invention, it naturally belongs to the unit you serve. If it is an invention outside the post, you can have a patent right.
