What can the Espacenet service do for you?

You can use Espacenet to:
   > watch new technologies emerge,
   > find solutions to your technical problems,
   > get a sneak preview of what your competitors are developing.

What’s in Espacenet?

Espacenet gives you access to:

   > more than 70 million patent documents – most of them patent applications rather than granted patents – from around the world. Patent applications normally represent the fi rst publication of a new idea, appearing ahead of journal articles and before new products reach the market.
   > patent family information, telling you if similar patents have been
claimed in other countries.
   > legal status information, helping you find out whether and in
what countries a patent is in force.
   > references to other kinds of technical literature (non-patent
literature).
   > citations – other documents cited by or citing the document you
are looking at.
   > links to the European Patent Register for European and Euro-PCT
documents.
