Whose three patents belong to the inventor?
The patent right belongs to the applicant. The patentee refers to the owner of the patent, and the patent applicant is the patentee after the patent is authorized. Without the permission of the patentee, others may not produce or sell it. The patent right can belong to both the applicant and the inventor. Sometimes the inventor and the applicant can be the same person, sometimes the inventor transfers the right to apply, and the inventor and the applicant are two people. Who owns the patent right depends on the agreement. Where there is more than one patentee, the patent right shall be the same as * * *. Article 42 of the Patent Law, the term of the invention patent right is 20 years, and the term of the utility model patent right and the design patent right is 10 years, counting from the date of application.
