STEPS TO PATENTING YOUR INVENTION
I am the Managing Director of the BioPatent
Services, (Originally Est. 1998).
I have been a Mechanic, Medical Technologist,
QC Specialist, Genetic Engineer, Process Engineer, Civil Attorney, and Patent
Attorney. I am interested and capable in these fields, and more.
What is a
Quality Patent Application?
I think a
Quality patent is one that is granted and protects the owner's interests.
At the time of filing, it is often hard to know what challenges the application
will face at the Patent Office, or how competitors might challenge in the
market place. So, a quality patent needs to have at least a broadly
descriptive specification.
A quality
specification will describe the invention the owner wants to sell in the market
place. Sometimes I have trouble explaining to individual inventors of
small businesses that the application also needs to describe embodiments they do
not intend to practice. This gives flexibility to support claim amendments
around surprise prior art during prosecution, and an opportunity to file a
continuation with claims blocking a competitor's engineer around.
Taking it
further, good Figures are important to support aspects of the invention that may
not be in the specification text (drawings tell 1000 words), and are required to
show all elements of a device that are mentioned in the device claims. Multiple
examples are important to fight enablement rejections, particularly in Asia and
Europe.
