Ask! - Patent Field

Flat-rate basic-search costs are set by technical-type fields because the time required for a professional patent search and patentability analysis is technical-type dependent.

For assistance in selecting the correct technical-type field, insert a generic term or description of the search subject below, without disclosing what you believe is new.

An email response, indicating the subject's technical-type field, will be provided no later than the next business day.

By generic term or description is not meant the field of use.

Examples:

• incorrect - "for automobile" - that's the field of use

• correct  -  "car wax" - generic term

• correct  -  "cam shaft" - generic term

• correct  -  "windshield wiper motor" - generic term

• incorrect - "in medical field" - that's the field of use

• correct  -  "blood test" - generic term

• correct  -  "leg brace" - generic term

• correct  -  "disinfectant cleaner" - generic term
