1. Types of patent applications
Patent applications require a certain process , the contents are different and the types are different. This article will briefly describe the patent application.
Types of patent applications
There are three types of patent applications in my country, as follows:
(1) Invention patent: refers to a new technical solution proposed for a product, method or improvement thereof.
(2) Utility model patent: refers to a new technical solution proposed for the shape, structure or combination of a product that is suitable for practical use.
(3) Design patent: refers to the aesthetic and suitable design of the shape, pattern or combination of the product, as well as the combination of color, shape and pattern. New designs for industrial applications
The differences between different types of patent applications are as follows:
1 . Patent authorization time: It usually takes about 3 years to grant patent rights for invention patents. It usually takes about one year for a utility model patent to be granted. It usually takes about 8 months to grant patent rights for a design patent.
2. The protection period of patent rights: The protection period of invention patents is 20 years. The protection period of a utility model patent is 10 years. The protection period of a design patent is 10 years.
2. How to apply for different patent application types
Apply Information required for a patent:
1. Name of the invention: the name should simply and clearly reflect the inventionThemes and genres created.
2. Background technology: the situation of the existing technology closest to the invention.
3. Technical solutions for inventions and creations: product-type inventions and creations: clearly and completely state the names of each component and their relationships with each other in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The connection relationship and the working process are explained. The solutions provided are subject to the ability of ordinary technicians in the technical field to realize them; electronic inventions and creations: provide circuit diagrams or block diagrams, and explain their principles in conjunction with each electronic device or module in the diagram; Method-type inventions and creations: including processing techniques, chemical products, medicines, foods, etc., the processing steps and limitations of the process conditions should be explained in detail, and corresponding process flow diagrams should be provided as needed; for inventions involving computers, communications and other fields For method inventions and creations, the process of the method should be provided, and its flow chart should be provided as needed.
4. Beneficial effects and advantages of the invention: describe the positive effects and advantages of the invention compared with the existing technology, and the described advantages and effects are directly obtained by adopting the technical solution of the invention and creation.
5. Description of drawings: If there are drawings, they should be drawn according to mechanical drawing standards.
6. Embodiments: Product and electronic inventions and creations: Embodiments are one or more specific design solutions for realizing inventions and creations. If provided, Attached drawings, this part should be explained in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, and the numbers in the attached drawings should be marked after the corresponding parts, and their functions, dynamic structures, working principles, usage methods, etc. can be explained as needed. Method-type inventions and creations: the process, operating steps, specific process parameters, etc. should be described in detail, and usually should provide embodiments that combine multiple process parameters; for method-based inventions and creations involving computers, communications and other fields, they should be combined with Flowcharts, etc. provide detailed and specific implementation solutions for this method, and multiple solutions can be provided.
The above mentioned are all legal knowledge about patent applications. From this we can know that there are three types of patent applications, namely invention patents, utility model patents and appearance patents. Design patents require different materials for different types of patent applications, so applicants should understand the relevant regulations before applying for a patent.
