FAQs Patent Questions

Question:The title of the design must identify the article in which the design is embodied.

Answer:
The Title of the design must identify the article in which the design is embodied by the name generally known and used by the public. Marketing designations are improper as titles and should not be used. A title descriptive of the actual article aids the examiner in developing a complete field of search of the prior art.

Question:The Inventor is the only person allowed to apply for a patent.

Answer:
c, with certain exceptions. If a person who is not the inventor should apply for a patent, the patent, if it were obtained, would be invalid.

Question:Any member of the U.S. Patent and Trademark office are prohibited from applying for a patent.

Answer:
Officers and employees of the United States Patent and Trademark Office are prohibited by law from applying for a patent or acquiring, directly or indirectly, except by inheritance or bequest, any patent or any right or interest in any patent.
