Patent application is a necessary procedure for obtaining patent right. To obtain a patent right, the applicant shall file an application with the State Patent Office, which shall approve and issue a certificate. When filing a patent application with the State Patent Office, the applicant shall also submit a series of application documents, such as the request, specification, abstract and patent claim. In terms of patent application, the provisions of the patent laws of all countries in the world are basically the same.
Second, the classification of patent applications
Invention patent: you can apply for an invention patent for a new technical scheme proposed for a product or method or for the improvement of a product or method;
Patent for utility model: you can apply for a patent for utility model for a new technical scheme that is suitable for practical use according to the shape, structure or combination of products; Patents belong to speculative assets among assets. If you apply for a patent purely for investment, you expect to get a bigger return. That's the same as the investment nature of buying lottery tickets. Whether you can get benefits depends largely on luck.
From the perspective of financial planning, it is not recommended that the allocation of speculative assets exceed 5% of total assets.
For ordinary people, it is completely unnecessary to allocate speculative assets. After all, no one can guarantee luck.
For enterprises, patents are like your suppliers. What they are good at is icing on the cake, and the last thing they can do is to give help in time.
Design patent: A new design with aesthetic feeling and suitable for industrial application can be applied for the shape, pattern or their combination of products and the combination of color and shape and pattern.
