Frequently Ask Questions
What qualifies for a patent?
To qualify for a patent, an invention must be novel, non-obvious, and useful. This includes new processes, machines, articles of manufacture, compositions of matter, or improvements to existing ones. The invention must be fully disclosed to allow others in the field to understand and eventually replicate it.
How does the patent application process work?
The process begins with preparing and filing a patent application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), which includes detailed descriptions, claims, and often drawings.
After submission, the application enters an examination phase where a patent examiner reviews it for eligibility. There may be back-and-forth correspondence (Office Actions) with the examiner to clarify or amend claims before potential approval and issuance of the patent.
What are patent maintenance fees, and how do I manage them?
Maintenance fees are required to keep a patent in force. For utility patents, these fees are due at 3.5, 7.5, and 11.5 years after the patent grant.
Keeping track of these due dates is essential, as missed payments can lead to the expiration of the patent. Using reminders or a docketing system can ensure timely payments, which a patent attorney can also manage.
How can I conduct a U.S. patent search?
You can conduct a U.S. patent search using the USPTO's online tools or databases like Google Patents. This involves searching for similar inventions or prior art, focusing on keywords, classifications, or inventors. A thorough search helps assess the novelty of your invention and can guide your patent application strategy.
