Practical tips for creating patent drawings<\/h1>\n

Drawings for an invention<\/h3>\n

Drawings are not a mandatory part of a patent application, but they can be very helpful in understanding the concept of invention.<\/p>\n

In addition to sketches, technical drawings and photos, CAD data, vector graphics or the image of a prototype of the product to be protected are also suitable as a basis for a patent drawing.<\/p>\n

The design of a patent drawing is governed by the country-specific guidelines of the patent offices. The guidelines for Germany are summarized in the “Patentverordnung PatV Anlage 2 zu \u00a712<\/a>“. <\/p>\n

Form requirements from the German Patent and Trademark Office (GPTO)<\/h3>\n

The DPMA recommends that patent drawings be made with drawing instruments.<\/p>\n

In practice, however, both freehand drawings and patent drawings created using CAD programs are submitted and recognized.<\/p>\n
