विकल्प

• A new invention, including a product

• A previously patented design with no modifications

• An improvement to an existing invention

• A new process for generating a product

Patents may be granted for four categories: a new invention (including a product), an improvement to an existing invention, a new process for generating a product, and a new concept or design. A previously patented design with no modifications would not qualify for a new patent.
