Why should we set up temporary patent protection?

According to the provisions of China's patent law, the system of early disclosure and delayed examination is implemented for invention patents. In other words, it will take some time, sometimes several years, for an invention patent to be published after it is accepted by the Patent Office. During this period, the content of the invention has been made public by the Chinese Patent Office in the form of announcement, and the patent right has no legal protection effect. In order to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the inventor at this time, the detailed rules for the implementation of the patent law provide for temporary protection, which is also in line with the legislative purpose of the patent law. It is necessary to protect the public interests and promote the technological progress of the whole society, but also to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the owners of inventions and creations and protect intellectual property rights.
