      I think that an informational video detailing how to quickly detect and prosecute the infringement of intellectual property rights might be useful to new inventors. I think that US Customs accepts photos and or descriptions of intellectual property which they distribute to their Enforcement Agents so that they can recognize pirated or counterfeited property and then seize it before it is brought to market. There are probably other means of defending against the theft of intellectual property that could be included in a video.
      Thank you for asking!

    In the provisional patent, can the drawing simply be a print copy of the Fusion 3d drawing with the added figure numbers? I always see the drawings that look like they are hand drawn. I assume it okay to use for provisional because they are not looked at like a non-provisional patent.

    I filed for my provisional application but how can I view my submission info files etc again because I just want to reconfirm if all is well. I opened an account but it keeps saying sign in and I do and I can't find my history of my application. Please assist

      Hi Ryan,
      If you filed your provisional application as a guest user (without logging into a USPTO account), accessing and reviewing your submission will involve a few steps. Here’s how you can proceed:
      When you filed the application, the USPTO provided you with an acknowledgment receipt. This receipt includes your provisional application number (e.g., 63/XXXXX) and the filing date. You should also receive a physical copy of this receipt in two to three weeks after filing your application.
      Unfortunately, as a guest filer, you cannot access your application directly online through a USPTO account since it wasn’t associated with one during filing. However, you can still retrieve your documents by contacting the USPTO directly.
      Email the USPTO’s Electronic Business Center (EBC) at ebc@uspto.gov or call them at 1-866-217-9197. Provide your application number and filing date and explain that you filed as a guest and need access to your submission details.
      If necessary, you can request a copy of your submitted documents. The EBC team can guide you through this process, or you can file a written request with the USPTO.
      To avoid this challenge in the future, consider creating a USPTO account before filing. This will allow you to track and manage your applications more easily through the Patent Center platform.
      If you are a registered user, provisional patent applications are managed through the USPTO’s Patent Center system. Log in to your USPTO account at (patentcenter.uspto.gov) using the same credentials you used when filing your application.
      Once logged in, navigate to the "My Workbench" or "Applications" section to see a list of applications associated with your account.
      If your provisional application doesn’t appear, you can try searching using the provisional application number (starting with a two-digit series code, e.g., 63/XXXXX) and the filing date.
      After locating your application, you should be able to view and download any submitted documents, such as your specifications, drawings, and the acknowledgment receipt. If you’re still unable to find your application, double-check the email acknowledgment you received after filing, which contains your application number and filing details.
      If your account isn’t showing any history or it keeps logging you out, you may need to clear your browser cache or try accessing the site using a different browser.
      Alternatively, you can contact the USPTO’s Electronic Business Center for technical assistance. They’re very responsive and can help resolve login or access issues.
      Lastly, if you’d like to consult with one of our patent attorneys to assist you in reviewing your application or ensuring everything is in order, email me at jsferrell@carrferrell.com, and I will refer you.

    How do I edit the existing figure-1 to edit and insert my own words? It seems like all these figures are created in Word, but every time I try to select a box the entire entity is highlighted rather than being bunch of editable individual boxes and lines.

    • @johnferrellesq.
      @johnferrellesq.  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The figures are not editable. You can just sketch your own figures (they don't need to be formal for a PPA) and either scan or take a picture and you can upload those as PDFs. 'Hope this helps. -john

    My invention uses other patents. How do I create my product and protect it with other patents being components of my gadget?

    • @johnferrellesq.
      @johnferrellesq.  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      One way is to buy any patented components from the patent owner. For example if you need to include a patented wheel in your new bicycle, just buy the wheels from the patent owner and you get a an automatic license with the purchase of the wheel. Otherwise, you will need to negotiate a license for any patents you need. Send me a message at jsferrell@carrferrell.com if you would like to consult with a patent attorney on this.
