特許を出願しても特許が取れない主な理由2つ【リライト版】
例えば、他人の発明を盗んだ、条約違反、公序良俗を害するなどです。
どんな他の特許(公知発明)があるのか、調べます。
わかりやすさを優先して書いています。
特許の業界では、発明の「進歩性(がない)」と言われます。
つまり、あなたが特許出願した発明に似た公知発明が示されます。
(ちなみに、特許の書類に新規な事項を追加することも、拒絶理由)

Two main reasons why a patent cannot be obtained even if you apply for a patent [Rewritten version]
(Q) Please tell me the reason why a patent cannot be obtained even if I apply for a patent.
I have heard of "reasons for refusal," but is this what you mean?
(A) Yes, that seems to be the case.
Even if you apply for a patent, it may not be possible to obtain a patent.
The reason is the "Reason for Rejection".
■Limited list of reasons why a patent is rejected
A patent can be refused if it falls under the grounds specified in the Patent Act.
A patent can be rejected for a limited number of reasons.
This is called "limited enumeration."
The patent will not be rejected for any other reason.
When there are no grounds for refusal, the examiner "must" patent the patent.
I will not list all of the reasons for this refusal.
That's because most things don't need to be that much of a concern.
For example, stealing someone else's invention, violating a treaty, or harming public order and morals.
Below, I will explain only two reasons for rejection.
As I mentioned in a separate article (here), these are two important things when obtaining a patent.
■Two main reasons why a patent cannot be obtained even if you apply for a patent
①The content of the invention is not clear
②The invention is not original
Regarding ①,
Please be careful if the inventor prepares the patent documents himself.
If you ask a patent attorney, they will prepare documents that do not fall under ①.
Regarding ②,
It is important to conduct a patent search before filing a patent application.
Find out what other patents (publicly known inventions) there are.
By the way, in this blog, I write "original (not)".
I write with priority given to ease of understanding.
In the patent industry, it is said that an invention lacks inventive step.
When the reason for refusal (2) is notified, the basis thereof will be indicated.
In other words, publicly known inventions similar to the invention for which you have applied for a patent will be shown.
If this happens, you may not be able to resolve the reason for refusal.
(By the way, adding new matters to patent documents is also a reason for refusal)
Even if you can resolve the reasons for refusal, your rights may be narrowed down.
Therefore,
Conducting a patent search ``before'' issuing a patent,
Be sure to clarify the originality of your invention before issuing a patent.
``Before'' issuing a patent is important, so I said it twice (lol)
It's an image of knowing your opponent beforehand when competing against something.
If you know your enemy, you won't have to worry about a hundred battles!
