Once an inventor applies for a patent, he enjoys the exclusive right to the patent, and he can also think that he has the monopoly right and the right to prohibit others and other units from using it. So if he has a patent, especially a very practical patent, he can also benefit from it within the validity period of the patent.

2、

The patent right can be transferred with compensation, exclusively or in several ways. Because the patent right belongs to the function of applying for a patent, the price of the transfer is determined by itself.
