What is a patent
When you(or someone) invent something, you need to have some rights over your invention so that others do not claim it for commercially making, using, selling, importing, or distributing your invention, so you apply for your rights over your invention to an authority (usually the state) which if finds your invention suitable , gives exclusive rights to you for a limited time, these set of rights constitute a patent.
I was searching the Internet for patent sites and after some surfing and checking sites , I found www.2innovative.net . You can got to www.2innovative.net and see how the patent process actually works , you can even apply for a patent there or even sell your invention. Moving forward, in what would I call a more technical approach , A patent (/ˈpætənt/ or /ˈpeɪtənt/) is a set of exclusive rights granted by a sovereign state to an inventor or assignee for a limited period of time in exchange for detailed public disclosure of an invention. An invention is a solution to a specific technological problem and is a product or a process. Patents are a form of intellectual property.
A patent can only be granted for an invention.
In order for an invention to lead to a patent it must constitute a practical solution to a problem where the solution is of a technical nature or effect and is reproducible.
You can not be granted a patent for an idea without describing or showing how the solution works in practice. You can not get a patent for a business concept.
Why use patent protection?
A patent can give you an important competitive advantage because you will enjoy exclusive rights to use your invention commercially
