FAQ
New Uses for Existing Inventions For example, in 2000, the Federal Circuit allowed a patent for the idea of using Bag Balm -- an ointment normally used to soothe irritated cow udders -- to treat human baldness. The court found it patentable, because it's a new use of a known composition.
The Wright Brothers' “Flying Machine" Their invention (patent number US821393A) detailed an innovative method for controlling an aircraft in flight. The key feature of their invention was the three-axis control system, which allowed pilots to steer the aircraft effectively and maintain stability.
Patentability criteria Your invention must be new, useful and non-obvious. Your invention must be the first of its kind in the world. It must not be known to the general public in writing or in any other form anywhere in the world before the application is filed.
The short answer is no. You cannot patent an idea, only an implementation. These generally fall into one of the categories of a process, a machine, a manufacture (combination of materials to make something new), or a new composition of matter (chemicals or drugs).
While it's technically possible to patent a new way of using an existing product, the claims must specify a novel and nonobvious method of using such an old product. The biggest hurdle in attempting to patent a new use will most likely be the nonobvious rejections by the examiner.

It is perfectly legal in the United States to choose to let your invention go unused for the entire period of the patent. If someone uses your invention without your permission, you are entitled to stop their use of the invention by seeking a legal injunction in Federal court.

Is a different use for an existing product patentable? Technically, it is possible to patent a new use of an existing product.
No. You won't be able to get the patent on the product which is already in use in the market. The criteria to get a valid patent is to introduce a novel feature in your invention. Therefore if a product is already in use in the market, then your patent won't be able to meet the novelty criteria.
