What are the characteristics of applying for a patent in the United States?

1. When you apply for an invention patent in the United States, you can still apply for a patent even if the patented technology is published within 1 year, and it will not be considered as losing novelty. If it is more than one year, it will be regarded as novelty failure;

2. When you apply for a temporary patent in the United States, you can get priority. The applicant needs to submit the patent specification in writing to obtain the patent application date, and the temporary application is not subject to substantive examination. If the patent applicant fails to convert the temporary patent application into a formal patent application within 12 months from the date of filing, the temporary patent application will be deemed to have been abandoned by the applicant and made public. It should be noted that an application for a patent for design does not apply to a temporary application;

3. When applying for a patent in the United States, you can apply continuously, mainly because the technical scheme of applying for a patent remains unchanged, but the scope of patent protection changes, and the application date of the original case will be retained after revision;

4. When applying for a patent in the United States, some applications can be made, mainly adding new substantive contents on the basis of the original application. The filing date of the original patent application remains unchanged, and the filing date of the new continuous case is not considered.
