Patent system is a system that encourages invention and innovation from the perspective of property rights. It focuses on the effective and full protection of intellectual property rights such as patent rights, and gives full play to the incentive mechanism of intellectual property rights. American President Lincoln said that the patent system is "the fuel to add benefits to the fire of genius". The patent system clearly stipulates that the inventor shall have the monopoly right to the invented product for a certain period of time, which excludes the imitator from infringing on the innovator's rights and interests. Some researchers in the history of industrial revolution assume that without the patent system, the British industrial revolution in the 65438+60' s would probably be hard to happen.
