What steps do you need to apply for a patent?

In order to promote the development of modern science and technology, the state vigorously encourages invention and creation, while protecting people's product patents. The state has also promulgated special laws and regulations, such as the Intellectual Property Law, to protect people's rights. If people create a unique product and discover a phenomenon that has never been discovered by others, they can apply for a patent from the state. Let Bian Xiao show you the steps needed to apply for a patent.

First, file a patent application. If you invent a unique product through your own wisdom and creativity in your own life, you must first keep it secret and don't let your precious knowledge be stolen by others. Secondly, you must submit the relevant patent application as soon as possible. After submission, China National Intellectual Property Administration will issue the relevant acceptance notice, and then they will pass the preliminary examination, publish it after passing, and then conduct a round of substantive examination, so they will be more careful to prevent the applicant from stealing other people's property rights. Only after the above work is completed will the applicant be authorized.

Two. Submitting documents related to patent application After China National Intellectual Property Administration authorizes the patent applicant, you can submit relevant documents, mainly including the following contents. 1 is a request, including patent name, inventor's name, address, etc. The second document is the specification, which mainly explains the patent in detail, including the name, specific content, purpose and usage of the patent. You'd better attach a picture to explain it in detail. The third document is the patent claim. The purpose of this document is to ask the relevant state departments to protect some of their own patents.

Three. Matters needing attention in the process of applying for a patent Before applying for a patent, you must check online to see if there are any patents similar to your own inventions. If you find similarities, then the patent you will apply for is invalid. If you don't have the same product design as yourself, you can apply for related patents.
