“Inventors may apply for a patent jointly even though (1) they did not physically work together or at the same time, (2) each did not make the same type or amount of contribution, or (3) each did not make a contribution to the subject matter of every claim of the patent.” 35 U.S.C.

Patent Improvements In the realm of invention, improvements to existing patents often emerge as inventors build upon previous work. These are referred to as “patent improvements.” Just like original inventions, these improvements can also be patented if they meet certain criteria.
