What is classified?
►
2 types of information
►
1
. Invention information
:
Technical information worth granting a patent
► 2. Additional information: Supplementary non-invention information the classifier/examiner considers interesting
> discretionary classification
> obligatory classificationSlide6
Example:
A metal rod wine rack 6
1.Invention Information
A wine rack which is easily dismantled (claim)
2.Additional Information

The IPC serves as a:
Tool for: classifying patent documentsBasis for:disseminating information investigating the state of the art preparing industrial property statisticsSlide8
How does it work? Tree type structureSlide9

70,000 entriesEach place/entry (Section, Class, Subclass, Group) is characterized by a symbol and a title
Symbol = succession of upper case letters and numbers Title
= phrase describing the technical content (scope) of the place
