Utility patents must meet three statutory requirements under 35 U.S.C. § 101 to be considered patentable subject matter: The Invention Must Be New. The Invention Must Be Non-Obvious. The Invention Must Be Useful.
Understanding and meeting these three basic requirements—novelty, non-obviousness, and utility—is vital for any inventor seeking patent protection. The patent application process is both rigorous and meticulous, demanding a strategic approach to intellectual property protection.
So, for a patent to be issued, your invention must meet four conditions: Able to be used (the invention must work and cannot just be a theory) A clear description of how to make and use the invention. New, or “novel” (something not done before) “Not obvious,” as related to a change to something already invented.
A nonprovisional utility patent application must include a specification, including a description and a claim or claims; drawings, when necessary; an oath or declaration; and the prescribed filing, search, and examination fees. Patent Center accepts electronic documents formatted in DOCX.
Requirements for filing a provisional application: A detailed written description of the invention including drawings. Title of the invention. Name(s) of all inventors. Inventor(s) residence(s) Name and registration number of attorney or agent and docket number (if applicable) Correspondence address.
Utility patent application: may be filed by anyone who invents or discovers any new and useful process, machine, manufacture, or composition of matter, or any new and useful improvement thereof.
