Patent novelty retrieval:
Search before the patent application to find out whether the patent application is novel and creative; According to the retrieved documents, choose whether to abandon the patent application or modify the technical scheme to narrow the scope of protection and continue to apply;
Patent analysis:
There are many contents of analysis, such as invalid patents, understanding the development of the industry, understanding the current situation of the industry, and understanding competitors and target opponents. Analysis is inseparable from retrieval;
Invalid patent:
Search for existing technologies,
Patent retrieval is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Even the examiner sometimes misses the inspection.
Understand the licensing prospects:
For some very important patents, in the fierce market competition, it is necessary to determine whether the patent has a good licensing prospect through search, so as to determine the investment or investment in the future market;
Understanding the stability of rights:
Patents that have been authorized do not mean that rights can be protected, especially utility model patents. Therefore, before safeguarding rights, it is necessary to evaluate the stability of patent rights.
Avoid repeated research and development:
Before the project is approved, it is necessary to search the technical topics of scientific research projects to determine whether it is necessary to invest funds, manpower and time in scientific research activities to avoid the waste of manpower, funds and time.
Digging talents:
What is the most expensive thing in 2 1 century? Genius. Through patent search, we can also hunt for high-level talents in this technical field, but when screening the search results, we need to identify who is the real inventor.
Information utilization: the highest realm of patent literature utilization
Patents that have expired can be used for free, which is not a small fortune; Some technologies are still in use even after 20 years; Patented technologies from other countries can be used free of charge as long as they are not patented in China. This is not stealing other people's technology, it is allowed by law and aboveboard. Other people's products sell well. If you want to enter this field, you need to do evasive design for his patent.
