What does the patentability of technology mean?

The patentability of technology means that a technology must meet the "three characteristics" requirements of patent, namely novelty, creativity and practicality.

These include:

1. Novelty means that the technology does not belong to the existing technology; No unit or individual has filed an application for the same technology with the patent administration department of the State Council before the filing date, and it is recorded in the patent application documents published or announced after the filing date.

2. Creativity means that compared with the prior art, the technology of the invention has outstanding substantive characteristics and remarkable progress, and the technology of the utility model has substantive characteristics and progress.

3. Practicality means that technology can be manufactured or used and can produce positive effects.

On this basis, this technology can be patented. After being authorized, the patentee can enjoy the exclusive rights granted to him by law, including: after the patent right for invention and utility model is granted, unless otherwise provided by law, no unit or individual may exploit the patent without the permission of the patentee, that is, they may not manufacture, use, promise to sell, sell or import their patented products for production and business purposes, or use their patented methods and use, promise to sell, sell or import products directly obtained according to the patented methods. After the design patent is granted, no unit or individual may exploit its patent without the permission of the patentee, that is, it may not manufacture, promise to sell, sell or import its patented product for production and business purposes.
