What's the difference between patent right and intellectual property right?

Many people can't distinguish between patent right and intellectual property right. In fact, they are mutually inclusive. In fact, patents belong to intellectual property rights. If you know something about patents, you can protect your rights and interests through laws when appropriate.

A patent refers to an invention protected by the patent law, that is, a patented technology that is recognized by the state and protected by law on the basis of publicity. In China, patents can be divided into three categories: inventions, utility models and designs. Intellectual property, also known as "intellectual property", refers to the property right of the obligee to the fruits of his intellectual labor.
