The decorative or artistic features of a product or object are protected by industrial designs. Industrial designs, in contrast to other types of intellectual property, are mainly based on visual components and contain very few written specifications. Because of this special feature, the drafter has a great deal of pressure to communicate the full design using drawings alone. As a result, in addition to structural views, design patents cover several perspectives, including top, side, front, and even perspective views. Under some circumstances, three-dimensional views with visible (solid) and invisible (dotted) lines may be included in design applications. Drafting design patents requires a unique set of skills that can only be learned via managing a variety of design scenarios.
Design applications that satisfy the Indian Patent Office's strict requirements are the area of expertise for IPCUBE. Creating design applications for a wide range of industries, including biotech, pharmaceuticals, IT, computers, telecom, electronics, mechanical, automotive, and consumer durables, is something our skilled team has done for a living. With the use of state-of-the-art tools like AutoCAD, CorelDraw, SolidWorks, and others, we have continuously provided legal firms and corporate legal departments with error-free, superior design applications.
Our knowledge of design patents makes sure that your ornamental designs get the protection they need. Design patents are a special kind of intellectual property. You may effectively protect the visual appeal of your product by entrusting IPCUBE to handle the complexities of design patent preparation.
Eight steps make up the creation of the Design Patent application, which is done in an organized manner.
First Consultation
We are aware of the goals, design, and domain-specific specifications of the client.
Analysis of Designs
To pinpoint the design's ornamental and aesthetic elements, we do a thorough investigation of the composition.
Sketching Production
We produce comprehensive design drawings with perspective, top, side, and front views included. Three-dimensional views with visible (solid lines) and invisible (dotted lines) components are examples of special instances.
Drafting specifications
We draft a succinct written description of the design that complies with the few spoken requirements of design patents and enhances the drawings.
Application Gathering
We put together the specifications and design drawings to create a comprehensive design patent application.
Assurance of Quality
To ensure a zero-error application, we carry out a thorough quality check.
Submission
We adhere to all deadlines and requirements and submit the design patent application to the Indian Patent Office.
Observation and Assistance
Throughout the prosecution stage, we keep an eye on the application's development, respond to office actions, and offer any assistance that is required.
