Perpetual motion machine invention patent application!
I'm here to popularize the patent knowledge of 1 The perpetual motion machine can't apply for a patent because it violates the laws of nature. If it can be scientifically proved, you can of course apply for a patent. Theory alone is not enough, it must be realized. 2. Patents should be practical, just like you said "no consumption". Even if there is, what's the use? 3. The protection period of invention patents in China is 20 years, and that of utility model and appearance patents is 10 year. According to the Paris Convention, you have the priority of 12 months (6 months for appearance patent) after you apply in China, and you can apply abroad.
