The inventor applied to the Patent Office for this technical scheme, and passed a series of rigorous examinations, especially the examination of novelty, creativity and practicality, and then obtained the patent authorization.
When an inventor applies for a patent in his own name, it is generally recommended to declare it through an agency and pay a certain agency fee to the agency.
The agency helps the inventor to write the patent application documents and answer the examination opinions.
The whole application process is controlled by the agency, and the agency will communicate with the inventor when the technical content is involved.
Question 2: Can an individual apply for an invention patent? Yes, it's just that the formalities are troublesome and communication is difficult. You don't know much about the process of individual application, do you?
Question 3: How to apply for an invention patent? What kinds of invention patents are there? 1. Patent for Invention Detailed Rules for the Implementation of China's Patent Law: "Invention refers to a new technical scheme proposed for a product, method or its improvement."
The so-called products refer to all kinds of new products that can be manufactured in industry, including solids, liquids and gases with certain shapes and structures. The so-called method refers to the method of processing raw materials and making various products. The invention patent does not seek the technical achievements that can be directly applied to industrial production through practice, but it can be a solution to technical problems or an idea with the possibility of industrial application. However, this technical scheme or idea cannot be confused with a simple topic or idea, because a simple topic or idea does not have the possibility of industrial application.
2. Patent for utility model
Detailed rules for the implementation of China's patent law: "utility model refers to a new and practical technical scheme for the shape, structure or combination of products." Like the invention, the utility model protects a technical scheme. However, the scope of patent protection for utility model is relatively limited, which only protects new products with a certain shape or structure, and does not protect methods and substances without a fixed shape. The technical scheme of the utility model pays more attention to practicality, and its technical level is lower than that of the invention. Most national utility model patents protect relatively simple and improved technological inventions, which can be called gizmos.
3. Design patents
Detailed Rules for the Implementation of China's Patent Law: "Appearance design refers to a new design that is aesthetically pleasing and suitable for industrial application for the shape, pattern or combination, color, shape and pattern of a product."
Appearance design is obviously different from invention and utility model. Appearance design focuses on the designer's artistic and aesthetic creation of the appearance of a product, but this artistic creation is not a simple handicraft, it must be practical for industrial application. In essence, design patents protect artistic creativity, while invention patents and utility model patents protect technical creativity; Although the design and utility model are related to the shape of the product, they have different purposes. The former aims to make the appearance of products beautiful, while the latter aims to make products with appearance solve a technical problem. For example, if the shape, pattern and color of an umbrella are quite beautiful, it is necessary to apply for a design patent. If the umbrella handle, umbrella ribs and umbrella head are simple and reasonable in structural design, can save materials and have durable functions, you should apply for a patent for utility model. I don't know whether you mean the appearance or the performance of the machine. Think for yourself.
