What are the similarities and differences between patent right and copyright?

First, the similarity between patent right and copyright is the possession of a certain right, which refers to a certain right and is intangible. Neither use nor transfer can generally cause the disappearance and transfer of related tangible things. Can be used separately, that is, at the same time, different places can be used by many people in their own ways. The infringement of the two is not necessarily intuitive and obvious, but both direct and indirect, and the situation is diverse and complicated, which makes it more difficult to judge the infringement. On the issue of exclusivity, patents and copyrights are owned by the obligee. Without the permission of the obligee or through certain legal procedures, others may not exercise these rights without authorization, otherwise it will constitute infringement. On regional issues, the rights recognized and protected by a country or a region are only property rights in the region and cannot take effect outside the region. There is a protection period in the use time. Second, the difference between patent right and copyright is 1, and the protection methods obtained are different; Most copyrighted works are independently completed, while the invention patent law of the same content is only granted to the first applicant, and the main requirement is "originality". 2. Different kinds of right objects; Copyright protects written, artistic and scientific works, while patent rights protect invention patents, utility model patents and design patents. The object of copyright is broader than patent right. 3. The content of rights is different; Personal rights in copyright are characterized by non-transferability and permanence, including the right of publication, the right of signature and the right of modification. The property rights of works mainly include the rights of reproduction, distribution, exhibition, performance and broadcasting. In contrast, the content of patent right will be simpler. 4. The exclusiveness of rights is different; As for the copyright law, as long as it is an original work, whether it is similar to a published work or not, it can obtain independent copyright. In contrast, patent rights are very exclusive. If an inventor obtains a patent for a technological achievement, others do not have its license. You can't use this technology casually in production and operation. 5. The term of rights protection is different; Generally speaking, the personal rights in copyright are not limited by time, and the protection period of property rights with heavy copyright is longer. The copyright protection period of citizens is 50 years after the author's death. In the protection of patent right, the protection period of invention patent right is 20 years, and that of utility model and design patent right is 10 year.
