聽(tīng)力每日練習(xí) listen 2134 Applying?procedures

1-- I'm going to apply for a patent but I'm not sure how to prepare the application. Would you please help me?
 
2-- Sure, glad to help. First you need submit a request, a description and a claim. The description is particularly important. If necessary, it should be supported by drawings.
 
1-- How long shall I have to wait for the approval?
 
2-- Well, examination takes time. The Patent Office will announce the result and notify the application within 18 months. Even then you still don't get the patent certificate.
 
1-- Why?
 
2-- The Patent Office needs 90 days to wait for any possible opposition. Only when everything is OK will the patent be registered.
 
1-- I see. But I have another question. I don't know the reason why the duration of protection is only 15 years?
 
2-- This is only for one of the patent rights. For invention the duration of protection is even shorter, only for 5 years protection.
 
1-- Does every country specify the same duration of protection?
 
2-- No, 15-year protection is the minimum protection any country will grant its patentees. In some countries, the patent right duration for invention is 20 years.
 
1-- What are the criteria for granting patent rights?
 
2-- They are similar to those in other countries: novelty, inventiveness and praticability.

1-- 我想申請(qǐng)專利，但不知道如何準(zhǔn)備，你能幫我嗎？
2-- 當(dāng)然，很高興能幫忙。首先，你需要提交一份申請(qǐng)書(shū)，一份說(shuō)明書(shū)和一份要求書(shū)。說(shuō)明書(shū)尤其重要，必要的話，說(shuō)明書(shū)應(yīng)配有插圖。
1-- 獲得專利我要等多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間？
2-- 哦，專利審查需要時(shí)間。專利局會(huì)在18個(gè)月內(nèi)公布結(jié)果，公告專利。即使到那時(shí)，您也拿不到專利證書(shū)。
1-- 為什么？
2-- 專利局還需要90天時(shí)間看看是否有異議。只有一切都沒(méi)有問(wèn)題時(shí)，專利方可注冊(cè)。
1-- 我明白了，我還有一個(gè)問(wèn)題。我不知道專利的保護(hù)期為什么只有15年？
2-- 只有一種專利權(quán)保護(hù)期限是15年，發(fā)明專利保護(hù)期限是15年。至于實(shí)用新型和外觀設(shè)計(jì)專利，保護(hù)期更短，只有5年。
1-- 每個(gè)國(guó)家規(guī)定的保護(hù)期限時(shí)候都一致？
2-- 不是，各國(guó)都對(duì)專利人給予了最低15年的專利保護(hù)。在一些國(guó)家，發(fā)明專利的保護(hù)期是20年。
1-- 授予專利的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是什么？
2-- 標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和別國(guó)相似，都要求具備新穎性，創(chuàng)造性和實(shí)用性。
