What is the use of the invention patent certificate?

Patent certificate is a legal document issued by the patent office to the patent applicant after the patent application has passed the examination. The patent certificate records the name of the invention-creation, the name of the applicant for the invention-creation, the starting date of the patent right, the application number and the patent number.

With a patent certificate, it proves that the patent belongs to you. If others want to use it, they must get your permission and pay you a fee. Otherwise, it is patent infringement, and the infringer can be prosecuted. Without the permission of the patentee, no one may manufacture, use, sell, promise to sell or import the patented product or produce the product according to its patented method for the purpose of production and operation; It should be noted that the invention results are only protected by law within the patent protection period, and invalid patents include expired patents or abandoned patents. If they are lost in the middle, no annual fee is required, and anyone can use them for free. When an invention is patented in that country, it is protected by the laws of that country. Foreign patents are not protected in China, and China patents are not protected in foreign countries.
