The present invention relates to an intellectual property auction method using an online auction system capable of trading ideas between individuals and companies through online.

1 schematically shows the configuration of an online auction system according to an aspect of the present invention.

One aspect of the present invention is an intellectual property auction method using an online auction system, wherein a plurality of terminals are connected to an auction server having a membership subscription module, an auction module, and a payment module through a network.

The network connects the auction server and the terminal, and may include an online network and an offline network. In general, it can be connected through the Internet.

The terminal may be a desktop computer or a mobile device such as a mobile phone or a pad, but is not limited thereto. There may be a plurality of terminals. It may consist of a first terminal T1 and a second terminal T2. A buyer and a seller may access the terminal to conduct an auction.

In order to use the system of this aspect, the member registration module can enter member information in advance and join. Such member information can be safely managed in accordance with the Personal Information Protection Act. Member information may include information such as name or name, resident registration number, corporate registration number, business registration number, address, phone number, email address, and account number.

The auction module is a module that manages a process in which an auction is actually conducted. A plurality of buyers sequentially input an auction price and finally the seller clicks a successful bid button to end the auction.

The payment module can receive the contract price from the buyer after the auction ends, deduct a certain amount or a certain percentage of the fee in return for using the auction system, and send the remaining amount back to the seller. In order to ensure transaction safety, direct cash transactions between the buyer and seller are blocked and the settlement is automatically made by the auction system.

Using the online auction system of this aspect, the seller accesses the auction server with the first terminal T1 and uploads the intellectual property to the auction server, and the buyer accesses the auction server with the second terminal T2 and participates in the auction method. intellectual property can be purchased.

The seller may be primarily an individual, and the individual may upload their intellectual property (ideas, etc.) to the auction server. The purchaser may be a company, and the company may purchase the intellectual property uploaded by an individual by selecting necessary ideas, etc. There may be a plurality of companies, and the plurality of companies may purchase individual ideas and the like through an auction method. Through this, an individual can sell his or her ideas, etc. at a higher price, thereby earning high profits. However, the seller does not need to be limited to an individual, and anyone who wants to sell his or her intellectual property can become a seller.

Intellectual property can refer to any product created by human mental activity. Specifically, such intellectual property includes, for example, an invention subject to a patent right, an invention subject to a utility model right, the appearance of an article subject to a design right, symbols, characters, shapes, holograms, motions and colors subject to trademark rights, works subject to copyright, and movies. Scenarios, music scores, and music lyrics may be included. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and any human mental creation may be included.

This aspect may be accomplished in the following steps.

First, the seller can sign up for free membership, and the buyer can sign up for an annual membership (a).

Although not limited thereto, the seller may be mainly an individual member, and the buyer may be mainly a corporate member. Through this, personal intellectual property can be commercialized through a company to prevent personal intellectual property from being killed. In the case of corporate members, prior consent is required to be subject to sanctions for violating the operating regulations, and membership may only be possible if the market capitalization and annual sales meet certain requirements. In other words, you can set a lower limit for the market capitalization and annual sales, and you can limit the number of companies that can only join as a member. This is to ensure the commercialization of intellectual property.

Next, the seller may upload the intellectual property to the auction server (b).

Since intellectual property is not a tangible object with a fixed shape like movable or real estate, it is not easy to trade or commercialize it. Intellectual property can refer to any product created by human mental activity. Such intellectual property includes inventions subject to patent rights, inventions subject to utility model rights, appearance of goods subject to design rights, symbols, characters, shapes, holograms, motions, and colors subject to trademark rights, works subject to copyright, movie scenarios, music scores and music Lyrics may be included. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and any human mental creation may be included.

Next, after viewing the uploaded intellectual property, the buyer can select the intellectual property to purchase and apply for an auction (c).

In order to view the uploaded intellectual property, the purchaser must agree to the pledge stating that legal punishment may be imposed in the case of stealing or leaking the uploaded intellectual property. This is a procedure to prevent the uploaded intellectual property from being leaked to the outside without permission.

Next, the auction application information can be transmitted to the seller (notification of auction application) (d).

By sending the auction application information requested by the buyer to the seller via SNS such as a message, e-mail address, or Kakao Talk message to the seller, the seller can immediately check the information that the auction has been applied after receiving the auction application. The seller can proceed with the subsequent auction procedure without delay, thereby ensuring the speed of the transaction.

Next, the seller receiving the notification of the auction application can register the auction start date and end date (registration of auction schedule) (e).

By registering the auction schedule after the seller receives the auction application, buyers who have applied for the auction can participate in the auction according to the auction schedule. When the auction schedule is registered, it can be transmitted to buyers who have applied for an auction through SNS. In addition, by posting the auction schedule on notice boards such as notices, buyers who have not applied for the auction can check it and give them the opportunity to participate in the auction.

Next, when the auction starts at the auction start date and time, the buyer may input the auction start price instead of the seller inputting the auction start price (auction price input) (f).

The starting price of the auction is made by the buyer. In other words, rather than the seller setting the auction start price, the buyer can set the auction start price. The company evaluates the value of the intellectual property on its own by examining whether the intellectual property can be used for business or its usefulness, and reflects this to set the auction start price. In general, from the point of view of individuals who own intellectual property, there may be many cases where they do not know how much value the intellectual property has in the business field, and in this case, there may be cases where the intellectual property possessed by them is excessively undervalued. . On the other hand, if an individual overestimates his or her intellectual property, it is likely that the trend in the relevant business field is not properly reflected, which may hinder trade and commercialization.

Next, a plurality of buyers can participate to determine the price by the auction method (g).

When there are multiple buyers, a plurality of sellers alternately input auction prices to conduct an auction, and then the seller clicks a successful bid button to conclude a contract between the seller and the buyer. If there is only one buyer participating in the auction, it is impossible to proceed with the procedure according to the above auction method.

Next, after the contract is concluded, the buyer may remit the contract amount to the payment module of the auction server, and the payment module of the auction server may pay the seller the remaining amount after excluding the fee from the contract amount (payment step) )(h).

If the payment of the consideration is made directly between the buyer and the seller, problems such as non-payment may occur. Therefore, it is possible to ensure that the payment is made through the settlement module of the auction system. In this way, problems such as non-payment of consideration can be prevented in advance.

The terminology used in the present invention is for describing specific embodiments and is not intended to limit the present invention. The singular expression should be regarded as including the plural meaning unless the context clearly shows it. Terms such as “comprise” or “have” mean that the features, numbers, steps, operations, components, or combinations thereof described in the specification exist, but are not intended to exclude them.

The present invention is not limited by the above-described embodiments and the accompanying drawings, but is intended to be limited by the appended claims. Therefore, various types of substitution, modification and change will be possible by those of ordinary skill in the art within the scope not departing from the technical spirit of the present invention described in the claims, and it should be considered that this also falls within the scope of the present invention. something to do.
