Search Patent for Method and device for linking to account and providing service process
The rapid development of network technologies is accompanied with increasingly comprehensive services and functions provided by servers that run on network platforms. Servers integrate the majority of offline services and offer the services on the internet. Sousers can access various online services and have more convenience in their day.
Servers offer a linking function to users in order to speedily process various services. Also, on the servers, users can connect service accounts that are used for processing with user accounts logged in to the servers. As such, when the users process the same service again in the future they don’t have to enter their account used to process service processing, which reduces the amount of work involved in processing services and bringing convenience to the users.
In order to be able to offer specific services, servers operating that run on networks must meet the required operating qualifications. To be specific, some specific services have high user information security requirements;therefore, a specific audit department needs to perform a security check on systems, hardware and such of the servers, and the servers can operate these specific services only after being approved. In order for the servers to pass in the security audit of the audit department, the maintenance staff of servers typically have to complete a substantial amount of security reconstruction on the systems, the hardware of servers, and incur high operation expenses. Operating specific services generally increase the cost of operation, so some networks do not undertake security reconstruction on systems, and the hardware of the servers on the network platforms due to operation cost pressure. The servers running the specific services are not able to be operated by the networks platforms as they do not comply with the guidelines. Therefore, every time users process services in the servers that do not possess the necessary qualifications to operate the particular services they must direct the service processing interfaces to servers that are equipped with the appropriate service processing qualifications. This means that customers’ requests for service are sent to servers with the required qualifications for operating the specific services.Further, the users need to access the accounts used for service processing using the interfaces offered by the servers that have the operating qualification for processing the services. This adds complexity to processing of services and reduces service’s efficiency for the user.

What is a patent?
A patent is granted by the government to safeguard an invention, patents give the inventor exclusive rights to use, create to sell, and promote the invention? Society gains when a new technology is brought into the marketplace. The benefits can be in directly, in that it allows individuals to achieve previously unattainable things, or indirectly due to the opportunities for economic growth (business expansion and job creation) which the invention provides.
Patent protection is demanded out by many universities and pharmaceutical companies for their research and development. Patents may cover the physical or abstract nature of a product or process or method or composition of material that are new to the field. Patent protection is granted to an invention that is beneficial or novel and is not yet known by other people in the same field.
Patents reward inventors who have commercially successful inventions. They act as a motivator for inventors to invent. Patents enable entrepreneurs and small companies to know that there is a good chance they will get a profit on their time, effort and money spent on technological development. This means they will be able to earn money from their work.
Patents are essential to firms and can be used to:
Secure the latest products and services;
Improve the visibility and the value of your product’s presence on the market
Differentiate yourself and your products from the competition.
Access business and technical expertise and information;
Avoid the risk of using proprietary third-party content, or losing your important information, creative outputs, or other creative output.
Patents can transform an inventor’s knowledge into a commercially tradeable asset that opens up new possibilities for employment creation and expansion of business by licensing or joint ventures.
Investors in the commercialization and development of technology will appreciate small businesses with patent protection appealing.
Patenting could lead to the development of innovations and new ideas. This information could encourage the development of new ideas and may be eligible for patent protection.
Patents can be used to prevent untrustworthy third parties from profiting from the invention’s efforts.
Revenues from patent-protected technology that are commercially successful could be used to finance the development of technology through research and development (R&D) that will increase the chance of better technology in the near future.
You can use intellectual property ownership to convince investors and lenders that your product has commercial value. A single patent could lead to numerous financing options. Patents and other IP assets can be used as collateral or as security for financing debt. Investors are also able to view your patent assets to increase their company valuation. Forbes and others have stated that each patent could increase the value of your company by as much as $500,000 to $1 million.
Startups require a carefully-crafted business plan that leverages the IP to prove your product or service is unique, superior, or innovative. Investors will be impressed if your IP rights are secured or in the process to being secured, and that they agree with your business strategy.
It is essential to keep an invention secret prior to filing for patent protection. Public disclosure of an invention prior to its filing frequently degrade its originality and render it patent-infringing. Thus, disclosures that are filed prior to filing (e.g., for test-marketing investors, test-marketing, or for other business partners) must only be done upon signing a confidentiality contract.
There are many kinds of patents. Knowing the different types of patents is vital to protect your invention. Utility patents protect new methods and inventions made by machines. Design patents cover ornamental designs. Utility patents are best and shield the owner from copycats and other competitors. Utility patents are often issued to improve or modify existing inventions. Patents issued under utility can be used to enhance or alter existing inventions. For example, a procedure patent covers acts or methods for performing one specific thing, while a chemical composition will include the combination of components.
What’s the duration of a patent last? Utility patents last 20 years from the initial date of filing, however their expiration dates can be extended because of patent office delays, for example.
Are you considering patenting your ideas? Patents are granted only to applicants who are the first to file, so you must file quickly. Contact PatentPC today to file your patent application filed!
Patent searches are a must when you are drafting an application for patent. This allows you to look at other concepts and provide insights into them. This will allow you to limit the potential of your idea. Also, you can find out about the current state of the art within your area of invention. You’ll be able to get a better idea of what your idea should be and be better prepared to write the patent application.
How to Search for Patents
A patent search is the first step in obtaining your patent. You can do a google patent search or do a USPTO search. After the patent application has been filed, the item covered by the application can be referred to as patent-pending and you can find the patent application on public pair. Once the patent office approves the application, you can do a patent number search to find the patent issued, and your product is now patented. In addition to the USPTO search engine, you can use other search engines such as espacenet as described below. It is possible to seek help from an attorney who is a patent or patent attorney. In the US patents are issued by the US trademark and patent office, or the United States patent and trademark office, which is also responsible for examining trademark applications.
Are you interested in finding other similar patents? These are the steps to follow:
1. Create a list of terms to describe your invention, based on the purpose, composition and use.
Write down a concise and precise explanation of your invention. Be sure to avoid using terms that are generic such as “device,” “process,” and “system.” Look for synonyms to the terms you initially chose. Then, take note of important technical terms as well as keywords.
To help you recognize keywords and concepts, use the questions below.
- What’s the goal of the invention? Is it a utilitarian device or an ornamental design?
- Is invention a way to make something or carry out an action? Does it constitute a product?
- What is the nature and purpose of the invention? What is the physical structure of the invention?
- What’s the objective of the invention?
- What are the terms in the technical field and keywords used to define the nature of an invention? To find the correct terms, consult a technical dictionary.
2. These terms allow you to find pertinent Cooperative Patent Classifications using the Classification Search Tool. To determine the best classification to your invention, look through the class scheme of the classification (class schedules). Think about substituting the words that you’ve used for describing your invention, if you fail to find any results in the Classification Text Search with synonyms such as the terms you used in step 1.
3. Check the CPC Classification Definition for confirmation of the CPC classification you have found. If the classification you have selected has a blue box with the letter “D” at its left, the link will direct you to the CPC classification description. CPC classification definitions can aid you in determining the classification’s requirements so that you can select the one that is most appropriate. Additionally, these definitions can include research tips and other suggestions which could be helpful for further research.
4. The Patents Full-Text Database and the Image Database allow you to retrieve patent documents that include the CPC classification. By focusing on the abstracts and illustrations you can narrow your search for the relevant patent documents.
5. Take advantage of this list of most pertinent patent documents to study each one in depth for any similarity to your idea. Be sure to read the specifications and claims. It is possible to find additional patents by referring to the patent examiner as well as the applicant.
6. You can retrieve published patent applications that meet the CPC classification you picked in Step 3. The similar search strategy can be used as step 4. You can filter your search results to find the most pertinent patent applications by reading the abstracts as well as the drawings on every page. Next, carefully examine the patent applications that have been published with particular attention paid to the claims as well as additional drawings.
7. You can search for additional US patent publications using keyword searches in AppFT or PatFT databases, and also search for patents classified as not from the US according to below. Also, you can use web search engines to find non-patent literature disclosures about inventions. For example:
- Add keywords to your search. Keyword searches may turn up documents that are not well-categorized or have missed classifications during Step 2. For example, US patent examiners often supplement their classification searches with keyword searches. Think about the use of technical engineering terminology rather than everyday words.
- Search for foreign patents using the CPC classification. Then, re-run the search using international patent office search engines such as Espacenet, the European Patent Office’s worldwide patent publication database of over 130 million patent publications. Other national databases include:
- European Patent Office (EPO) provides esp@cenet to access a network of Europe’s patent databases with access to machine translation of European patents.
- Japan Patent Office (JPO) – with access to machine translations of Japanese patents.
- World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) offers PATENTSCOPE with a full-text search of published international patent applications and machine translations for some documents, as well as a list of international patent databases.
- Korean Intellectual Property Rights Information Service (KIPRIS)
- State Intellectual Property Office (SIPO) with machine translation of Chinese patents.
- Other International Intellectual Property Offices with online patent databases include Australia, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Great Britain, India, Israel, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and Taiwan.
- Search non-patent literature. Inventions can be made public in many non-patent publications. It is recommended that you search journals, books, websites, technical catalogs, conference proceedings, and other print and electronic publications.
To review your search, you can hire a registered patent attorney to assist. A preliminary search will help one better prepare to talk about their invention and other related inventions with a professional patent attorney. In addition, the attorney will not spend too much time or money on patenting basics.
