Название

Название должно быть кратким и точным. Название изобретения, как правило, характеризует его назначение и излагается в единственном числе. Является самостоятельной частью патента, так как заголовки нередко переводятся отдельно от патентов, и по ним составляются картотеки, по которым потом находят описания интересующих изобретений.

Описание изобретения

Описание должно раскрывать изобретение с полнотой, достаточной для осуществления. То есть специалист в данной области техники на основании описания должен иметь достаточно информации для реализации изобретения.

Описание изобретения содержит следующие разделы:

•область техники, к которой относится изобретение;

•уровень техники;

•раскрытие изобретения;

•краткое, но отражающее главную мысль (суть) изобретения описание чертежей, схем, рисунков, эскизов (если они содержатся в заявке);

•осуществление изобретения.

Если к патенту приложены чертежи, то в полном описании расшифровываются цифры, обозначающие на чертежах детали патентуемого устройства.

Формула изобретения

По правилам большинства стран в заявочном описании, равно как и в описании к охраняемому документу, должна быть выделена часть, называемая в патентной литературе «формула изобретения» или «патентная формула».

Основное значение формулы изобретения (патентной формулы) – правовое.

Для того, чтобы формула отвечала правовому значению, она должна описывать сущность изобретения, быть лаконичной, полной и определенной, а также отвечать требованию «единства изобретения».

С юридической точки зрения формула изобретения предназначается для определения объема правовой охраны, предоставляемой патентом. В формуле изобретения сформулированы все существенные признаки изобретения.

Формула изобретения состоит из одного или нескольких пунктов. Каждый пункт этой формулы обычно состоит из двух частей, называемых ограничительной частью и отличительной частью, разделенных словосочетанием «отличающийся (-аяся, -ееся) тем, что…». Ограничительная часть пункта формулы содержит название изобретения и его важные признаки, уже известные из уровня техники. Отличительная часть содержит признаки, составляющие сущность изобретения, и являющиеся новыми. Каждый пункт формулы представляет собой одно предложение. Пункты формулы делятся на зависимые и независимые. Независимый пункт формулы изобретения характеризует изобретение

27

совокупностью его признаков, определяющей объем испрашиваемой правовой охраны, и излагается в виде логического определения объекта изобретения. Зависимый пункт формулы содержит уточнение или развитие изобретения, раскрытого в независимом пункте.

В патентах на английском языке патентная формула начинается словами: claim, claims (I claim, We claim, What I claim is, What we claim is). Обычно она состоит из нескольких пунктов, представляющих собой нумерованные абзацы. Если в формуле только один пункт, то он не нумеруется. Каждый пункт, каким бы длинным он ни был, в английских патентах состоит из одного предложения.

Чертежи

Это необязательная часть патента. Фигуры чертежей нумеруются и перечисляются в описании. Детали на них обозначаются цифрами, буквами или другими индексами, объясняемыми в описании. Кроме чертежей допускаются схемы, рисунки или другие графические материалы, поясняющие идею.
