Ownership of cooperative invention patent

Now the development of science and technology in the world determines the development of a local city. Only when science and technology become more and more advanced will cities become more and more developed. When researchers have not successfully invented or studied something. At the time of publication, the ownership of the patent should be indicated, and no one is qualified to apply for invention. But there are many types of inventions, the first invention, the second joint invention or the joint invention of professional teams. So when two or more people, * * *, research and invent the same thing, to whom should the exclusive rights belong? Let's explain it for everyone. (1) Ownership of cooperative invention patent The so-called cooperative invention refers to an invention task that is not completed by one person alone, that is, it can be completed by more than two people or by a group. According to the relevant laws, a person needs to apply for his own patent to avoid being claimed by others. So when two or more people, even a group, research and invent something, who should the ownership of this patent belong to? There are three situations at this time. First, when two people * * * complete an invention at the same time, when applying for a patent, if either party refuses to apply for a patent, then at this time, the other party cannot apply compulsorily or in his own name. Instead, what you need to do at this time is to keep the project you invented secret. Don't let outsiders know the research results you invented, and avoid others stealing your works with malicious intent, which will bring a series of unnecessary troubles. You can keep secrets and do ideological work with each other at the same time. Second: The second content is based on the previous content. When one of them successfully convinces the rejected party, you can apply for a patent together. If persuasion fails and the other party gives up the right to apply for this patent, then you can apply for this patent alone at this time, which means that the ownership of this patent belongs to you alone. Third: when an invention is developed by a team or professional unit, when they apply for a patent, the patent should belong to a unit or group, not in the name of an individual. The above three situations all happen when the invention is a joint invention, and there is no general solution to the problem of who owns the contract. If the exclusive right to complete the invention is signed before the cooperation, then we must complete it according to the contents of the cooperation articles. (2) Characteristics of the patent right of cooperative invention First of all, the patent right must belong to the researcher. At the same time, if it is completed by two or more people or a group, its exclusive right belongs to a group. People in the collective have the right to use proprietary invention content for free. Second, before * * * co-inventing, if the invention patent belongs to whom, it will be completed according to the contract. If there is no signature, please refer to the above three situations for the ownership of rights.
