A new patent research tool

[mikeswrenches]

I know that many of you like to look at the patents for the items you find. While DATAMP does a great job on the items they have uploaded, that is all they can search. Google patents is a little problematic, since they also don't have all the patents in there database.

This one works every time...if you have the PATENT NUMBER. The directions are very clear. Follow them and you'll have the patent information immediately.

What's wrong with the gov. website?

Nothing, but I think this one is easier.

Thanks for the link Mike! Its always good to have another research tool in the toolbox. Truth be told though, I usually manage to find what I'm looking for if I already have the patent number. But all too often all I have is a patent date to go from. Seems like it was more common on tools produced before about 1930/1940 to mark them with the patent date, and not the patent number.
