Today, we will learn about “the 4th industry and patent overview”. Among them, today we will discuss “Design and Trademark Search, Foreign Patent and Trademark Search, and Advanced Patent Search”.
1. Design and Trademark Search
Click the Design or Trademark menu among the submenus of the Kipris top menu. After that, enter a basic search term to search. Setting various views, such as drawing view, abstract view, administrative disposition view, etc., and filtering through sorting will help understanding of the design or trademark.
*Nice taxonomy: A taxonomy used internationally for the classification of goods. It has been adopted in the United States, EU, and Japan, and Korea has also adopted this classification system since 1998. It consists of 45 product groups, of which 34 are used to classify product types and 10 are used to classify service industries.
2. Overseas Patent and Trademark Search
Kipris provides an overseas patent search service. The country can be selected, and abstract translation services are also provided. Translation services include English translation of Korean, Japanese, and Chinese, and Korean translation of English. Similar to Korean patent search, overseas patent and trademark can be searched through Smart Search using itemized search and re-search within search results. Kipris provides not only foreign patents but also foreign trademark search services. The features for trademark search are the same as those of overseas patent search services.
3. Advanced Patent Search
Kipris allows you to search by grouping each item using smart search. Search items include administrative disposition (all, disclosure, rejection, registration, extinction, invalidity, withdrawal, abandonment), right classification (select patent or utility model), free search (use the same search expression as general search), search terms (synonyms, related words, translations, etc. can be added to the search by using the extension of the search term when searching for one word in an autonomous search), using IPC, using CPC (a patent classification developed by the US Patent Office and the European Patent Office), using application number (2 digits of classification, 4 digits of application year, 7 digits of serial number), use of notice number (2 digits of registration number and 7 digits of serial number), using international publication number (consisting of country code and numbers), search of application date (year 4 digits, month 2 digits, and day 2 digits), and use of other items such as search formula, abstract, claims, duration, applicant, applicant number, applicant address, research department name, research project name, etc. In addition, in the search results, it is possible to obtain information that is closer to the information one is looking for by using various sorting filters.
Classification statistics search includes bibliographic information (name of invention, abstract, technical classification, number, date, personal information, representative drawing, etc.), administrative processing (administrative document name, receipt/shipment date, processing status, receipt/shipment number), claim, designated country (in the case of international application), prior art search literature (prior art document number researched at the time of examination), family information (country code, country name, etc.). It is now possible to obtain all administrative processing information (examination information) for patents in five countries using the service OPD, One Portal Dossier. OPD has been applied for by consensus in five countries, including Korea, the United States, Europe, China, and Japan.
Today, we looked at the 4th industry and patent overview, among them “design and trademark search, overseas patent and trademark search, and advanced patent search”. Next time, we will study “outline and types of robots”.
*I am a student learning IP, not an IP expert. Translation is also a translator and my short English skills. This blog was created to convey the feelings I felt while learning IP. I hope it will be helpful to those who do not have the relevant knowledge, those who want to learn about IP, or those who are already learning.
*The above is what I learned from Professor Oh's lecture on the 4th industrial revolution and patents, which can be viewed through K-mooc. Here is the link to the lecture (you may not be able to view it without logging in).
