How to apply for the patent of construction method?

(1.) patent search. Patent retrieval is the first step of patent application and the key to whether it can be applied, so patent retrieval is particularly important in the process of patent application. Patent retrieval is to retrieve and analyze the existing patent technology and judge whether the technical scheme of the enterprise meets the "three characteristics" of patent authorization, that is, novelty, creativity and practicality. As long as the technical scheme of the enterprise meets these three characteristics, it is recommended to apply for a patent, otherwise it is futile to apply for a patent. But for general construction enterprises, what if they lack talents in this field? It is suggested to entrust a professional patent agency to assist in completing the patent application, which can get twice the result with half the effort.

(2) Patent technology mining. Patent technology mining is how to convert the existing technical scheme of an enterprise into technical disclosure of patent application and finally apply for a patent successfully. For construction enterprises, patent technology mining can start from several aspects. (1) In the actual construction process, newer construction schemes and technologies are often used, so you can search for them. If three patents are met, it is recommended to apply for an invention patent. (2) It is suggested to apply for utility model patents for some structural improvements related to the building field, such as structural changes of some engineering scaffolding and improvement of building thermal insulation structure. (3) Search and analyze competitors' patents in general, put forward new technical solutions to the shortcomings of competitors' patents, or apply for patents. In short, patent technology mining should be good at summing up engineering experience, thinking more and observing more. Or entrust a professional intellectual property agency in the construction industry to assist in patent mining.

(3) It is also possible to entrust a professional organization to conduct technical disclosure, and finally, the professional organization will write a patent application document that conforms to the Patent Law according to the patent technical disclosure provided by the enterprise and submit it to the State Patent Office, and so on. Of course, in the application process, if there are problems, the patent agency is responsible for following up until the end of the whole case.
