classification of patents

Read a random definition: gas chamber

A quick definition of classification of patents:

Classification of Patents: When people invent new things, they can get a patent to protect their idea. Patents are sorted into different groups based on what they are about. This helps people who are looking for patents to find what they need more easily. These groups are called classes and subclasses. Sometimes people call this sorting "office classification" or "field of invention."

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Classification of patents refers to the process of sorting inventions into broad classes and narrow subclasses to aid in patent searches. It also refers to the specific classes into which the inventions are sorted.

Examples: For example, a patent for a new type of computer software may be classified under the broad class of "Information Technology" and the narrow subclass of "Software Applications." Another patent for a new type of medical device may be classified under the broad class of "Medical Technology" and the narrow subclass of "Surgical Instruments."

Explanation: The examples illustrate how patents are classified into broad classes and narrow subclasses based on the field of invention. This helps patent examiners and researchers to easily search for and locate relevant patents. By using a standardized classification system, it is easier to compare and analyze patents within the same field of invention.
