The invention patent applied for a utility model at the same time, and the utility model patent was rejected on the grounds that the patent did not have the prospect of granting a patent right.

first, the examination of an invention application has to go through two stages: preliminary examination and substantive examination, while the examination of a utility model application has only one stage, so it is more strict than the preliminary examination of an invention application.

second, the words in the picture are actually just the rhetoric of the patent office's review opinions, and do not represent the final conclusion. Many applications can finally be authorized through revision.

thirdly, if necessary, the application for utility model can be re-examined within the prescribed time limit (see the decision of rejection), but whether the re-examination can be successful depends on the specific conditions of the application documents, so it is not easy to generalize.
