What is the core of patent law?

The core purpose of patent law is to protect inventions. Article 1 of the Patent Law clarifies the legislative purpose: to protect the legitimate rights and interests of patentees, encourage inventions and creations, promote the application of inventions and creations, improve innovation ability, and promote scientific and technological progress and economic and social development, and formulate this Law.

The first is to encourage innovation, so that everyone can invent and create, and then use patent rights to protect these technologies and let inventors dispose of them, so that inventors have interests and motivation. It is also to put the world's excellent technologies on the same platform for everyone to learn and improve.

Setting the annual fee ladder, increasing the annual fee year by year, and setting the patent protection period are all aimed at letting these good technologies and inventions enter the well-known fields one day earlier, that is, into the unprotected fields for everyone to use together.
