First of all, let’s clarify two concepts: applicant and inventor. Does your Shanghai household registration say whether points are given to applicants or inventors?
The applicant is the final subject of rights and obligations of the patent. The applicant pays the annual fee to apply for the patent and also enjoys commercial and other benefits. The applicant can have more than one person and be the first applicant to save you. This situation must be a school. Or some government agency. At most, it’s your teacher... It’s definitely not other individuals. You don’t need to think about the first applicant... There are also second applicants and so on. You shouldn’t fight for this applicant. First of all, you don’t pay (pay) It’s not just a few tens of dollars, maybe hundreds or thousands) Secondly, you just participate in the research and it has nothing to do with the subsequent rights and obligations. For example, if someone else uses what you made, the applicant has the right to ask him to pay or compensate you. Doing this kind of thing? ...The school should not give you this kind of right so casually...
If you want to name your name as an inventor or something like that, it’s very easy~ Just tell your seniors that it’s okay before applying. The order is not important
What should be noted is that the applicant (regardless of the first and second) will have a patent certificate in the end. There is no inventor, only the name of the inventor is on the patent certificate
Your situation should be regarded as a service invention, and the concept is also there. Whether it is a service invention mainly depends on whether you have the qualifications to be an applicant. I also said that you should not think about the first applicant. There is probably no hope for the second applicant.
In the direction of the inventor Try harder~~~~
