Patents application for

Sperry applied for his first patent—a dynamo-electric machine— when he was twenty. His final patent application—for a variable pitch propeller— was submitted in 1930, shortly after his death. In total, 355 of his over 400 patent applications matured as actual granted patents. 

Any inventor may apply for a patent regardless of age, sex, or citizenship. Once a U.S. Patent has been granted most other countries allow the inventor up to one year to submit a patent application for a foreign patent. The exception is Japan which requires nearly immediate submittal of a patent application to the Japanese patent office at nearly the same time the inventor is submitting to the U.S. Patent office. 

Motors support for a long-range scientific study of the poisonous gasoline additive, tetraethyl lead. Besides trouble-shooting for various Du Pont departments, Carothers published 60 papers and was listed as the inventor or coinventor of 69 U.S. patent applications during his nine years at Du Pont. Research and development were so new to American corporations that Carothers assistants drafted and he edited patent applications for Du Pont lawyers. You were supposed to be so on top of the literature that you knew whether this was something new or not.. . . Those patents are really classical scientific papers, Hill explained. Carothers considered himself unfit to be a clerk or inventor, but he dominated Du Pont s patent application process for almost a decade. 

Other patent applications for scaffolds derived from methylphenidate have been published (16-18) however, no pharmacological data has been reported [57-59]. 

By sending legitimate chemists such as Ramsay and Baskerville samples to test, Hunter was following in the footsteps of Emmens, who in 1897 had sent samples and instructions for repeating his process to Sir William Crookes, who was unable to reproduce Emmens s results. In 1898, Emmens launched his Argentaurum Company, which advertised that for each ounce of silver submitted by investors it would return 3/5 of an ounce of gold. Emmens s efforts to start the company failed, though, when his patent application for the process was turned down (Nelson 2000, 58).

By the 1960s, it was already well known that the polycondensation rate can be enhanced considerably if the low-molecular-weight by-products are removed at a sufficient rate. Many patent applications for polycondensation reactors describe inventions especially suited for the efficient removal of volatile components. Nevertheless, a good understanding of the interaction of chemical reactions and mass transport was still lacking at that time. 

It is not possible, once the patent application is filed, to add further informahon. The applicant must therefore rely on the original disclosure which should be as complete and accurate as possible. Problems may arise if this is not the case. If the application does not describe the invention in sufficient detail, ideally across the full breadth of the monopoly claimed, the patent claims may be completely bad or their breadth may have to be reduced significantly. Thus, as much information as possible on how to carry out the invention should be given in the patent application. For example, if the patent application claims the production of a polypeptide in a host cell, and the only working example is its... 

The US first to invent system allows a person to obtain a US patent if he can prove that he made the invention prior to another party who filed an earlier patent application for the same invention. Proof of invention can involve submission of lab note books, making diligent record keeping extremely important to preserve US patent rights. 

In Europe and most other countries a disclosure of an invention by an inventor can invalidate his subsequent patent application for that invention. 

We state, however, that at about COP a 2.0 Special Dirac sea hole current phenomena are encountered in close-looping, as a new kind of decay mechanism from the disequilibrium state back to the Lorentz equilibrium. Bedini and Bearden have filed a patent application for energy transduction processes to overcome this effect and allow close-looping.

SmithKIine Beecham is another company with interests in CGRP receptor antagonists and has filed patent applications for two structural classes, the 3,4-dinitrobenzamides (Daines et al., W09809630) and 4-sulfinyl benzanilides (Daines et al., W09856779).

Does this mean they can patent compound B in their earlier case as well as their later case The answer is no and the reason follows. Absent special circumstances, a patent is enforceable 20 years from the date of filing the application. So let s work a timeline for the two patents containing claims to compound B should they both be allowed to issue. The first patent application was filed on June 1, 2004, so a claim to compound B issuing from that patent would expire on June 1, 2024. The second patent application for compound B was filed on December 7, 2006, so a claim to compound B issuing from that patent would expire on December 7, 2026. The net... 

The first review of laser Raman spectroscopy of explosives appeared in the late 1960s [30], A patent application for laser Raman applied to the remote identification of hazardous gases from explosives decomposition was filed a few years later [31],... 

The problem of these high development costs was foreseen by the American computer giants IBM when, in 1971, they filed a patent application for a recon-figurable circuit — in other words, a single circuit which could be programmed to perform many different functions to suit different applications, avoiding the cost of...
