The difference is that the concept of patent authorization quantity is greater than the patent ownership quantity, that is, the authorization quantity includes the ownership quantity. The reason is that the authorized patent may have different legal consequences for specific legal reasons, and 1 is invalid. Invalid patents are invalid from the beginning, but because they have been authorized before, they will be counted in the authorized amount. 2. Be regarded as giving up. Patents need to pay an annual fee. If the annual fee is not paid after the expiration, the authorized patent will be deemed to have been abandoned. 3. The term of patent protection expires. Patents have a term of protection. The year of utility model and design is 10, and the year of invention patent is 20 years, counting from the date of application. After the patent expires, it is in an invalid state and anyone can use it. The above three situations cannot be counted as ownership, and ownership is a patent that is still valid at the time of calculation.
