Definitions

  • This invention relates to a written procedure for a patent and a method for processing the procedure thereof which is made necessary at a procedure with relation to the industrial property and, more particularly, this invention relates to administration of invention, administration of patent application, administration of patent application after applied for and administration of technique by means of a written procedure and a method for processing thereof.
  • this invention is going to disclose a written explanation used for an order and a process for application, a written procedure and a technique relating to a method for processing thereof.
  • the content of an invention accomplis h e d by a technician (it is intended to include a device and as the device is similar to the invention, the invention is described as a representative) is, in general, sent to a patent section after being described once into a a written order for application.
  • the written order for application is made over again to be a patent specification at the patent section and a patent is applied for in the Patent Office (it is intended to include registration of a utility model and as the registration of the utility model is similar to the patent, the patent is described as a representative).
  • the written order for application (a written explanation) is prepared to have a degree of a patent specification so that the written order for application can be applied for a patent as it is after having been typewritten but it is actually almost impossible for the technician who is busy in the research and developement to finish all completely his own invention to be a patent specification.
  • the term named "the scope of demand for patent” in the patent specification is so difficult and important that almost all technicians should construct with deep consideration as the person in charge of patent who has a career of several years in the patent business should similarly construct. Knowledges and experiences in the both sides of patent and technique are needed for the thchnicians.
  • the invention relating to an important technical development involves some risks of being immitated when new goods,etc. are publicly opened if not only embodiments of the invention but also the circumferential technique thereof are not sufficiently protected and it is#ifficult to ensure the superiority of the result of the technique developed and, therefore, a network of the application has been confirmed by constructing a so-called patent map in which applications individually were applied for already at a time when the design of the development is nearly terminated.
  • a list is made with the inventions applied for already or a matrix figure is made with the number of the application in classifying the inventions according to the elements and the usages, in order to put the situation of the application in order and to confirm any falling out of the application.
  • the technician in general, has deep special knowledge from the intense study of the technique but has an inclination lacking a wide knowledge and an objective point of view.
  • the person in charge of patent does not have such deep special knowledge as the technician has but has a wide knowledge with reference to the circumferential technique and the relating matters of the invention from the experience obtained from the publications and the answer and the process of the case against the Patent Office.
  • the person in charge of patent reviews the technique and the invention from a point of view of "obtaining right" and has fundamentally different sense of view so the person in charge of patent may be objective.
  • the circumferential technique can be originated and sought for by the technician and the person in charge of patent through a fact that the technician and the person in charge.of patent examine the technical content each other from the consultation of the invention therebetween and the stand point to combine the invention with an effective right and the both parties seek for a new technique to construct the invention and to combine systematically the invention with the right to be obtained, so that the invention can be combined with a powerful patent right at least by constructing the network of application, some sporadic applications for protecting the circumferential technique that came out later as the result of the trial and error of the research can be applied for in total in an earlier time and any missing or duplicated application can easily be prevented from being brought about with reference to the aberration in time or the width of the scope of the right to be obtained with the individual application.
  • the administration of processing procedure in general includes an examination in the contents and a formality examination.
  • the examination in the contents as the invention and the device are, in essence, immaterial technical conception, the person in charge of the technique and the patent must express the immaterial technical conception in the written documents for patent procedure so that a third party can well understand the conception and can make the documents out by reading.
  • corresponding matters to be examined by mutual reference are involved in a document and mutual examination between two documents related with each other is often necessary. Accordingly, it is desired to construct the corresponding matters in a form in which the matters can be fully and closely examined but the present situation may not be necessarily preferable to satisfy the desire.
  • the written order for application, the explanation to be affixed therewith, the written application, the specification, the written procedure for the case under examination and the files thereof etc. are enumerated as the written documents necessary for the patent procedure and the written revision, the written opinion, the written statement of opposition, the written reply, the written demand for trial and the written order thereof are enumerated as the written procedure for the case under examination and, there are a lot of kinds in total in the written documents.
  • the procedure relating to only one application may reciprocate between the technical section, the section in charge of patent and the section confirming the business and not only the person in charge of the operation but also the responsible person are working for confirmation.
  • the procedure actually, is processed not only in the enterprise who is the applicant but also in the government office concerned as well as in the third party enterprise similarly and, therefore, the procedure is processed through the power of attention and the power of judgement of really many persons. If every procedure (duplicate) dealt with in a general enterprise is considered as an object, similar processing operation is repeated due to individual difference or surplus power for attention and for judgement is consumed by relying upon the power of vision or the power of judgement of the person in charge of the operation.
  • the written order for application (the written explanation) that is the written procedure for patent sent from the technical section of the enterprise who continues the activity for application to the patent section and the ledger for application history (the written full equipment) through which a plurality of applications are to be administrated are illustrated as examples hereinafter. More particularly, the technician makes the ledger for application history and holds it with the copies of the written order for application in order to administrate the formality item of the application, the receptionist at the window of the technical section makes the ledger for application and the patent section makes the ledger for application.
  • the three kinds of ledgers are of substantially the same nature but are made separately and then the substantial item is hardly expressed to its details,
  • the ledger for application history has, heretofore, been made among some technicians, as an example for administrating the substantial item of the application history by checking the item up at a glance, and recording the abstract or the rough sketch of the individual application in addition to the number, the date and the title, charges the technician with a duty of uselessness for double writing the content the same as that in the written explanation.
  • the ledger for application history is difficult to be made as the ledger is hardly put to practical use except putting the history of the application in order and, therefore, the ledger is liably made by omitting the abstract or the rough sketch.
  • the administration of the content of the application which is deduced from thaeffect of the technical development is to classify the invention, to fully equip the document with items and to store the data and the administration plays an important.function in the sense of aiming better activity of the invention by utilizing later the application in the research and development on the basis of the information of application of the part.

More particularly, it is in the grasping of the essense and the point of the invention, and in the expressing, objectively of the aim and the positioning of the application by making clear them so that the application is processed in comply with the tendency thereof.
  • the third object of this invention is in the making the evaluation, the confirmation and the processing efficient. More particularly, it is in the expressing of the result of the evaluation extreme compactly and in that in a manner in which the tendency of the invention can be confirmed and in the accomplishing of the mechanical processing by describing and making correspondent to the other document.
  • the fourth object of this invention is in the obtaining of the powerful patent right by determining the exact network of the application. Moreparticularly, it is in the whole positioning by keeping the individual written explanation in touch with a written patent analysis and by determining temporarily the scope of demand of the individual invention at the time of the patent consulting and in the providing of the powerful network of the right by making the omission less with the application.
  • the fifth object of this invention is in the enlarging of the result of the development and the expedition of the technical development. More particularly, it is in the collecting and uniting the knowledge and the- idea between the two different works such as the technical section and the patent section at a relatively earlier stage of the development of which the patent consultation is proposed by the technician, in the making of the search with the circumferential technique around the embodiments of the invention and in the enlarging and the expedition of the result of the development through reasonable seeking for the technique in the way of seeking for the right.
  • the sixth object of this invention is in the levelling up of the both parties, the technical section and the patent section. More particularly, it is in that the person in charge of patent examines immediately the condition necessary for constructing the invention and determines temporarily the scope of demand after being notified of the content of the invention and that the person said above constructs the invention by the circumferential technique and determines temporarily the scope of demand thereof to to bring up in a shat term the person's power to construct the invention and to determine the scope of demand.
  • the technician can also be levelled up with the real power in a short term through the experience before the technician's eye.
  • the seventh object of this invention is in the intending of the efficiousness of the technical development and patent business. More particularly, the point of the invention of the embodiment and the circumferential technique of the invention are made nearly clear at the time of the patent consultation to harmonize it with the detailed explanation, the order and the process of the application of similar type are simultaneously dealt with in a lump to decrease the number of the sporadic application and to save trouble for reconstructing the patent network.
