 A “Patent” is an intellectual property right granted by
the Government to an inventor “to exclude others from
making, using, offering for sale, or selling the invention

for a limited time in exchange for public disclosure of
the invention when the patent is granted.

related to invention and which is already existed before
the date of invention.
 “Patent search” is the process by which prior patented
inventions are examined, with the goal being to find
information that bears close similarity to a given patent
or proposed invention.
