FAQs Patent Questions


Question: A patent is granted upon invention of a new machine or manufacture not an idea.

Answer:

A patent cannot be obtained upon a mere idea or suggestion. The patent is granted upon the new machine, manufacture, etc., as has been said, and not upon the idea or suggestion of the new machine. A complete description of the actual machine or other subject matter for which a patent is sought is required.




Question: Why does the patent expire before the exclusivity?

Answer:
Exclusivity is granted upon approval of a drug product if the statutory requirements are met.




Question: If two or more persons work together to make an invention, to whom will the patent be granted?

Answer:
If each had a share in the ideas forming the invention as defined in the claims – even if only as to one claim, they are joint inventors and a patent will be issued to them jointly on the basis of a proper patent application. If, on the other hand, one of these persons has provided all of the ideas of the invention, and the other has only followed instructions in making it, the person who contributed the ideas is the sole inventor and the patent application and patent shall be in his/her name alone.
