What are the characteristics and functions of patent right?

Exclusivity is also called monopoly or exclusivity. Patent right is the exclusive right granted to the applicant or his legal assignee by the competent government department according to the application of the inventor or applicant that his invention meets the conditions stipulated in the patent law. It belongs exclusively to the obligee, and the patentee has the right to possess, use, benefit and dispose of its right object (i.e. invention and creation). The so-called regionality is the space limitation of patent right. It means that the patents granted and protected by a country or region are only valid within the scope of that country or region, but have no legal effect on other countries and regions, and their patent rights are not confirmed and protected. If the patentee wishes to enjoy the patent right in other countries, he must file another patent application according to the laws of other countries. No country will recognize the patent rights granted by other countries or international intellectual property agencies unless it joins international treaties and bilateral agreements. According to China's patent law, patent right is an intangible wealth. Patent right has three characteristics: exclusivity, timeliness and regionality. Anyone who wants to exploit a patent must obtain the permission of the patentee and pay the royalties according to the agreement of both parties, otherwise it will constitute infringement. Within the validity period of authorization, the patent right can only be used by the applicant or the licensee; After the patent expires, anyone can use the patent for free and become the wealth of the whole society. The patent right is valid only in the country where the patent right is granted, and other countries are invalid.
