1). Patents, Trademarks, Copyrights--What’s the Difference?
Patents
A patent protects inventions through federal law. Inventions are your creative ideas for new products (articles of manufacture), machines, processes, methods, compositions of matter, ornamentation on products, or new plants. An improvement on an existing product may also be patented.
Utility patents protect the majority of these. To be patentable, your invention must be useful, novel and non-obvious.
