The first paragraph sets forth who the inventor is, the citizenship and residence of the inventor, as well as a general summary (e.g. \u201cimprovements in Chairs\u201d, etc.) of the invention.&nbsp; Modern patents likewise spell forth like information.&nbsp; The second paragraph dealt with a brief description of the drawings.&nbsp; The third paragraph focused on the objectives the patent sought to accomplish.&nbsp; From the fourth paragraph onward (almost until the end), a detailed description is given relating to the patent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Much of the detailed description relates to going through each element shown in the accompanying figures.&nbsp; The mechanics of \u201chow\u201d the invention works or is constructed is generally disclosed in this section.&nbsp; The idea behind this is that enough needs to be disclosed so that another person reading the patent would be enabled to also create the invention.&nbsp; As you read through such paragraphs, you may find the description appearing a bit like a recipe: place top rail K on bar F, put together a base assembly comprising elements G H I and I, etc.&nbsp; The description therefore gives us enough information to enable us to construct the invention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An interesting element of this patent found in Col. 2, line 97 \u2013 Col. 3, line 4 relates to other possible embodiments of the invention.&nbsp; On one hand, the patent notes that such an invention may be applied to other styles of chairs or seats, and possible applications may be found in railroad-cars, street-cars, and sofas.&nbsp; Such a disclosure is good because it shows other applications which the patent may possibly cover.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Claim 1 covers the removable back system and focuses on the two side posts with the top support bar (\u201cgirt F\u201d).&nbsp; Claim 2 covers the removable back system and focuses on the two side posts, the top support bar (\u201cgirt F\u201d) and the lower support bar (\u201cgirt E\u201d).&nbsp; Notice how support for each claim was found in the patent specification.&nbsp; Additionally, recognize that the claim may be as broad or as narrow as desired.&nbsp; Claim 1 is arguably broader in that it only relies on the top support bar, whereas claim 2 relies on both the top support bar and the bottom support bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How would you alter or improve the application specification?&nbsp; For example, it may be good to not only mention other possible applications but actually give a detailed description of other applications.&nbsp; Such an invention may look considerably different from a stadium seat, to a railway car seat, or to an opera house seat.&nbsp; Merely mentioning may give some benefit.&nbsp; More details however give greater support showing how the patent is envisioned of being applied.&nbsp; Additionally, the type of support system used can also vary significantly.&nbsp; For example, rather than having a top or bottom support system, what if the support beam was in the middle of the backing with alignment posts on the top and\/or bottom.&nbsp; What if the top bar was affixed to a single post (rather than two) that was attached to a chair assembly.&nbsp; The more you can think outside of the box of possible ways the invention will be applied, the more protection you give the invention.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"speaker-mute footnotes_reference_container\"> <div class=\"footnote_container_prepare\"><p><span role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" class=\"footnote_reference_container_label pointer\" onclick=\"footnote_expand_collapse_reference_container_802_1();\">References<\/span><span role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" class=\"footnote_reference_container_collapse_button\" style=\"display: none;\" onclick=\"footnote_expand_collapse_reference_container_802_1();\">[<a id=\"footnote_reference_container_collapse_button_802_1\">+<\/a>]<\/span><\/p><\/div> <div id=\"footnote_references_container_802_1\" style=\"\"><table class=\"footnotes_table footnote-reference-container\"><caption class=\"accessibility\">References<\/caption> <tbody> \r\n\r\n<tr class=\"footnotes_plugin_reference_row\"> <th scope=\"row\" id=\"footnote_plugin_reference_802_1_1\" class=\"footnote_plugin_index pointer\" onclick=\"footnote_moveToAnchor_802_1('footnote_plugin_tooltip_802_1_1');\"><a role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" class=\"footnote_plugin_link\" ><span class=\"footnote_index_arrow\">&#8593;<\/span>1<\/a><\/th> <td class=\"footnote_plugin_text\">\u201cAbout the USPTO,\u201d available at <span class=\"footnote_url_wrap\">http:\/\/www.patent-search-information.com\/USPTO.html.<\/span> <\/td><\/tr>\r\n\r\n <\/tbody> <\/table> <\/div><\/div><script type=\"text\/javascript\"> function footnote_expand_reference_container_802_1() { jQuery('#footnote_references_container_802_1').show();
