The Remark Can You Patent
Your Invention is nowdays most askable question. The Idea is the First step
towards the invention and undoubtedly, an inventor think about any invention only
when they have any idea. The Journey between where you are now and where you
want to be is same the journey between your idea and your Invention.
The First step of this
Journey is to understand what type of inventions and ideas are capable of
patent. There are three types of Patent for which you can apply i.e. utility
patents, design patents, or plant Patents. So, you need to understand your
patent type for which you want to apply. After that, to determine if your idea
can be patented, review the USPTO Office list of what can and cannot be
patented which is also available online. Your Idea should be count as an
invention if it is unique and not available in the USPTO List.
There are so many
inventors who have some idea and worried about that someone will steal it or
place them in market place. Then, Obviously you have to go first for Patentability
Search even before telling this thing to anyone.
The
most tough step is write an application to the patent office about your
invention because you have to describe each and every thing in details. For
example, How to make, How to Start, How it will work e.t.c. and also you have
to add some figures of the idea with detailed description of your
invention.When you complete with your all credentials just upload it on USPTO
site.
There
are also provisions for patenting procedures which vary in different
jurisdictions. For instance, in India, the government has amended the patent
rules and has introduced the “instant option” for startups. For startups, time
period for grant of patents will be reduced from five-seven years to two and a
half years (implementation till 2018). In addition, the cost of filing patent
has been also reduced. Similarly, in US as per Patent Rules, 2003, expedited
services for patent filing and fee concession are already in place for
startups
