- CONTINUE IN WORD
- Export the unlocked draft to editable Word with DPMA text and drawing page layouts.
ILLUSTRATIVE DRAFTING EXAMPLE
A supported German claim can use single-part form.
A synthetic teaching example, not a customer document or the result of an actual product task.
Invention disclosure excerpt
Eine Kühlvorrichtung enthält einen Temperatursensor, einen Ventilator mit zwei Drehzahlstufen und eine Steuerung. Die Steuerung schaltet bei Überschreiten eines oberen Temperaturgrenzwerts auf die höhere Stufe und erst bei Unterschreiten eines niedrigeren Grenzwerts zurück.
1. Kühlvorrichtung mit einem Temperatursensor (10), einem Ventilator (20) und einer Steuerung (30), wobei die Steuerung (30) eingerichtet ist, die Drehzahl des Ventilators (20) von einer ersten auf eine höhere zweite Drehzahl zu erhöhen, wenn die erfasste Temperatur einen oberen Grenzwert überschreitet, und erst dann auf die erste Drehzahl zurückzuschalten, wenn die Temperatur einen unter dem oberen Grenzwert liegenden unteren Grenzwert unterschreitet.This excerpt illustrates claim structure and terminology. Review scope and support for your own invention.
03Questions for the drafter
- Enablement: does the disclosure explain how the sensor, controller and fan implement both switching conditions?
- Scope: retain the disclosed relationships. PatV § 9 permits single-part or two-part wording; do not invent prior art to force a split.
- Prior art: the example does not establish novelty or inventive step. Assess those questions against verified documents.

Review the privacy policy, including which AI providers process your content, and check that this meets your client's or organization's requirements before entering unpublished technical material.
Read the privacy policyHow does this differ from the EP workflow?
DE targets a German national patent at DPMA and produces German text. EP targets the EPO and retains its own drafting rules. The DE abstract recommendation is 1,500 characters, not the EPO 150-word recommendation.
Is the export a ready-to-file DPMA package?
It is an editable draft for review. The product does not file applications or supply request forms, signatures or a validated DPMAdirekt package. Check the original disclosure and final drawing legibility before filing.
Start with the invention you can substantiate.
Choose Germany (DPMA) to prepare German technical documents and drawings from your disclosure.
