Thank you for all the information. I was wondering if you have an idea to improve a current product design for better functionality is this a process to be used for the new patent idea? The idea would utilize some exciting products on the the market now but it would be redesigned in a way that is different from the original idea, incorporating a better idea to offer more qualities and better uses.
@boldpatents4 жыл бұрын
Absolutely! I'd say the majority of ALL patents issued today are improvements on core technology available today, and many of these "improvements" are new applications/functionalities/adaptions that are available in other industries or "off the shelf" if you will, but just hadn't been done, and were not obvious to include.

If I make a "washcloth" the week after the person who made the very first "bath towel." Could I patent the "washcloth" or is it too similar to the towel? If no one has made a wash cloth after the twenty year patent embargo is over, could I patent it then or would it be recognized as "public domain?" And if it would be considered "public domain," could I do business with a company (if for whatever reason it was it was never made,) without that company telling me they don't like the idea... Then steal it?
@boldpatentsАй бұрын
Great question. I want to be clear to delineate between patent and trademark here. You are using quotes around "washcloth", I assume you are meaning an actual wash cloth, not that "washcloth" is your brand name/trademark. So, under that assumption, I do think the examiner would reject your washcloth at least based on a nonobviousness evaluation. Even though the washcloth is on its face novel as compared to the bath towel (used for different purpose), I think it would be difficult to overcome a rejection that argued that people could also use the same material to wash/dry their face even if they didn't take a bath/shower. After the full term of the patent, it is part of the public domain, and you cannot seek patent protection for it, or anything else that has been published. Last question the answer is yes, so long as what they are showing you is not protected by any patents, you're free to commercialize however you want.

How can somebody research pending patents?
@boldpatents2 жыл бұрын
The only pending patents that are available to find/see by the public are those that have published. Non-provisional patent applications publish roughly 18 months from their priority date. So, if it's been pending for 18 months, or a provisional was filed, and has been pending 6 months or so, it will be published, and can be quite helpful to determine novelty/non-obviousness.

@boldpatents4 жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching Solarview, and thanks for your great question. The answer is, it's going to be very case-specific and depend on your employment contract. If your employer claims ownership and requires you to assign any and all inventions that were created on the job, you could be in trouble if you decide to then seek patent protection after you end employment. There are a series of tests that courts have looked at to determine inventor ownership. If the invention is related to the job/duties you have, whether your boss/supervisor asked you to find a solution that the invention solves, if you researched, and worked on the invention while on the clock/during work hours and on employer equipment, then it is likely to be owned by the company, otherwise, you may be safe. Long story short, we should talk about your scenario in a confidential discussion. Book a free advisor meeting today at www.boldip.com. Cheers!

Thanks for the information! One question: Are other non provisional patent applications public (to be able to search) ?
@boldpatents4 жыл бұрын
Yes, provided that they are published! You can find them using the USPTO's Patent Application Information Retrieval "PAIR" search engine. It takes 18 months for patent applications to be published from the date of priority. So, if you filed a provisional, waited one year, then filed the nonprovisional on the anniversary date, it would still be another 6 months before the Nonprovisional publishes. Note, there are also ways for the inventor/applicant to request for their application to not be published (this is rare), but by doing so, they waive international rights. I know... probably longer answer than you originally thought! If you have any follow-ups, please email me at jd@boldip.com.

What if it's an idea that is gonna take a little time to build and test? If the patent search comes back clean how does one get a working prototype and risk wasting a lot of time and money if someone else beats you to it? I guess I'm asking can an idea with detailed engineered drawings be enough to obtain a patent?
@boldpatents Жыл бұрын
Great question. I'd say, that if a patent search comes back favorable and you know the invention works, and can explain how it works (and at least one way to build and make it) you should file for a provisional patent application first (to get the early priority date), then do your testing and prototyping and then plan on putting any changes/modifications/improvements into the final non-provisional filing within one year of the provisional date. However, if you aren't sure your invention will work, and need to prototype it to confirm its core functionality/validate its utility, then YES, you should seek to get at least a basic prototype built first, THEN, once you have a final invention, do a patent search, then file for patent protection.

So you can't patent something of yours if it's already been sold or publicized for over a year? That basically means someone else who isn't you can steal it, then put your business out of business. Or, does it mean NO ONE can patent (steal it) and then keep you from making money off of it. ?

Correct! If you've published your invention or sold it more than a year ago - IT BELONGS TO THE PUBLIC DOMAIN.
