Should the production process be patented?

Because it is not a product, it does not need to be made public. I applied for a patent, but it's not public, and it's hard to find it if others use it. The gain is outweighed by the loss. But are there other protective measures besides patents? After a creative product is developed and listed, it needs to be constantly updated and improved. If you just want to make a product and sell it, you don't have to play. In the process of product development and sales, all links can be outsourced, but the key links must be mastered by themselves. That link must be your own core. Only one idea can sell a product. Continuous innovation and research and development of new products are the entrepreneurial hardware products. The circuit board can be outsourced, the design can be outsourced, the raw materials can be solved by supply chain companies, and online marketing can be achieved through crowdfunding by Ali Mama and JD.COM. In short, there are many ways to turn ideas into products, depending on how to operate them. If you just want to sell your ideas to others, you don't want to do anything, and you want to make a profit, then a fair society will appear in your dream. If you don't want to pay, you are doomed to accomplish nothing. In addition, it is meaningless how many years it takes for a utility model to be successfully transformed into a product, because innovation will eventually be transformed into a product acceptable to consumers. If you simply think that our country is a pirated country, it is a bit superficial to like plagiarism. The design patent protects the design, not the product, so you can apply for the design you added, but if you want to implement it, such as production, you have to get the permission of the design patentee based on your design. As for the application, there are too many problems to pay attention to. Let's find a professional organization, or a law will be enough to confuse people. For example, the design granted a patent right in Article 23 of the Patent Law should not belong to the existing design; Before the filing date, no unit or individual has filed an application with the patent administration department of the State Council for the same design, and it is recorded in the patent documents published after the filing date. It is not easy to write a good patent, but it is not difficult to write a good authorized patent. In order to meet the requirements of basic form, the claims should be long and have many technical features. The technical scheme in the manual should be very specific, and more technical results should be written. Authorization should be fine.
