Patent case

Patent case is a system for providing inventive, rationalizing and innovative activities, which is a network of expert analytical, legal, consulting, educational, information and publishing and other institutes. “System for the development and putting products into production” - one of the basic functions of the patent system in the name of GOST R15.11-96 governing the conduct of patent research is formulated in a similar way. ^[one]

Patents are characterized by the sign of “territoriality” (they are not international) ^[2] and are issued by sovereign departments. The exception is international, or more correctly, interstate, patents of the European Patent Office (EPO) and the Eurasian Patent Office (EAPO). Providing and mediating the interaction of research and engineering teams or individual inventors with the state is also part of the patent system. In Russia, the agency representing the state is the Federal Service for Intellectual Property (ROSPATENT) , which performs the functions of registering intellectual property rights. ^[3] At the same time, the acceptance and examination of applications for objects of patent law, including patent search and patent research, the issuance of official bulletins, consideration of objections, library, bibliographic, reference, scientific and methodological services on the basis of Russian and international databases, conducting preparatory work for the certification and registration of patent attorneys of the Russian Federation - all these and many other functions necessary in the patent case are carried out by the Federal Institute Ut Industrial Property (FIPS) , which is part of the structure of Rospatent. Developers and inventors, in turn, interact with FIPS directly or through patent attorneys . During the development process, support for developers and inventors can be provided by patent experts, patent engineers, numerous providers of consulting, search and analytical services.

Classifier Patent Case

“Patent case. Invention. Innovation ”- the 85th section of the classifier GRNTI - State rubricator of scientific and technical information . ^[4] In addition, additional categories related to science and technology, and related thematically to the patent case, have been introduced in the latest versions of the classifier: ^[5]

• 06.81.23 Intellectual capital. Knowledge management
• 10.23.45 Protection of trade secrets
• 10.35.55 Protection of production secrets (know-how)
• 81.93.29 Information security. Protection of information.

In the nomenclature of specialties of scientists, this field of knowledge is embedded in the specialty 08.00.05 Economics and Management of the National Economy, where, among others, specialties are presented for managing innovative development, innovations and intellectual property. ^[6]

The Universal Decimal Classification (UDC) discloses most of the issues related to patent business in sections 608 (Inventions and discoveries in the field of natural and applied sciences. Innovation proposals. Patents. Industrial designs. Trademarks) and 347.77 (Industrial (industrial, scientific) property and ownership. Patent law and trademark right. Registration of industrial designs, projects, names, etc.). Certain related aspects are referred to rubric 343.533 (Crimes against property in industry and in art crafts. Counterfeiting of patents, company products, trademarks, drawings, product designs, models. Unfair competition. Fraudulent advertising). ^{[7] [8]}
