Under U.S. law, the inventor is defined as the owner of the patent unless the patent rights have been assigned to his or her employer, or some other individual or organization. Designations of assignment are typically filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (U.S. PTO) prior to the issuance of patents, and the name of the assignee is printed on the patent. In most countries outside of the United States, the patentee is the employer, rather than the employed inventor. [Pg.43]

A patent file history, also called a file wrapper, is the complete set of documents for a patent filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. These papers chronicle communications and actions taken by the patent examiner, the applicant, and the applicant s attorney from the time of patent application to issue. File histories are available from commercial services such as Intellectual Property Network (described below). [Pg.773]

U.S. Patent and Trademark Office Web Patent Databases. The Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) [72] offers free World Wide Web access, http // www.uspto.gov/main/patents.htm, to a bibliographic patent database that uses the most current patent classification system, this may not match the classification data that appears on the printed patent, and to a full-text patent database that uses the classification data that appear on the printed patent, this may not match the current classification data. The databases start with January 1, 1976, patents. The full text of a patent includes all bibliographical data (e.g., inventor s name, the patent s title, the assignee s name, etc.) and the abstract, full description of the invention, and the claims. All the words in the text of the patent are searchable. If the patent number is known, the patent, regardless of year, can be ordered from the PTO. Automated searching of 1971 to date patents is available at some of the Patent and Trademark Depository Libraries. Prior to 1971 searching can be done at the PTO facilities or at the Patent and Trademark Depository Libraries. Commercial patent search services are also available. [Pg.774]

From its initial filing with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, a U.S. patent application issuing period is from 18 months to 5 years. Thirty percent of filed applications, however, do not issue as U.S. patents. While there are many reasons for this, the most cogent reason is that the application chemistry too closely resembles chemical material already described in an issued patent. U.S. patent applications that do not issue as U.S. patents are doomed to oblivion. [Pg.664]

Because of outside pressure, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office abruptly canceled a patent being awarded to Mills, stating that it was reviewing his granted patents again. Mills corporation subsequently sued the U.S. PTO for such unparalleled discriminatory action. [Pg.689]
