schestowitz"Dear Mr. Peter,<br /><br />As far as I am aware, although the invention is not in the field of the chemistry still the applicant requires to show the technical effect.<br />For example in the 1924/20 decision the Technical Board of Appeal rejected examining the inventive step based on a technical effect (i.e. reducing the possibility of moisture reaching the technical modules of the hearing aid machine) explicitly stated by the patenteNov 04 08:28
schestowitze in the description of patent. However, the applicant/patentee should rely on a technical effect in the assessment of the inventive step if this effect is encompassed and embodied by the technical teaching of the “application” (G 2/21). However in the 1924/20 decision (https://ipkitten.blogspot.com/2023/04/construing-claims-to-include-technical.html), Board of Appeal did not consider the issue in this respect but rejected this techNov 04 08:28
schestowitznical effect just because the description cannot be used in construing the claims. As far as I know, there is no necessity that the technical effect be specifically stated in the claims unless the invention is not e.g. second medical use invention. Could it be concluded there are inconsistencies between T 1924/20 and other decisions in this regard. Would the result be different if the description have provided some evidence and precise Nov 04 08:28
