It is very difficult, however, for innovators to get the kind of financial and management support they need to realize their ideas. This publication, aimed at idea people, inventors, and innovative owner-managers of small companies, describes the tests every idea must pass before it makes money. You've Got an Idea? Great! So, you've had an idea for an invention or an innovative way of doing something that will boost productivity, put more people to work, and make lots of money for you and anyone who backs you? You are another of those individuals on whom progress has always depended.

Owner-managers who have started companies on new ideas know first hand about the innovation process. You've Got an Idea? In the first place, the chances that you are the first to come up with a particular innovation are somewhere between slim and none. Why is it so hard to find backers for your brainchildren?

Safety razor - Patent US1466123. Safety razor - Patent US1466123. Razor - Patent US4212103. Safety razors are well known and come in a variety of shapes and sizes. By and large, these prior art safety razor constructions all include a handle which mounts a razor head at one end of the handle. Generally, these handles are attached to or carry the razor head at a position centrally of the length of the razor head so that the razor head projects outwardly on opposite sides of the handle. Several common problems have been associated with these prior art razor constructions. One of these problems is that it is difficult to see the skin area that is being shaved immediately ahead of the razor head during use. This has been particularly a problem in the shaving of the skin areas prior to surgery where the shaving is generally done by hospital personnel. Another of the problems with prior art razors is that the handle construction is such that the razor is generally unstable during the shaving operation.

The Patent Process - Patents Background - Made in Canada. The first thing to do, in pursuing a patent for an invention, is to search for other patents of the same kind. If an invention similar to yours has already been patented, you will not be able to patent your own. Preliminary searching can be done through the Canadian Intellectual Property Office's (CIPO) post-1920 Canadian Patent Database ( and the Made in Canada 1869 to 1894 patent database. More detailed searching must be done at the Patent Office, in Gatineau, Quebec. Once you have determined that your invention is the first of its kind, you can prepare your application (described below).

The application must be complete, or your materials will be returned to you, and no filing date assigned. It is strongly recommended that you hire the services and expertise of a patent agent if you want to patent your invention. A patent agent will ensure that the language for your application is written in a certain format.

Intellectual property. Intellectual property (IP) rights are the legally recognized exclusive rights to creations of the mind.[1] Under intellectual property law, owners are granted certain exclusive rights to a variety of intangible assets, such as musical, literary, and artistic works; discoveries and inventions; and words, phrases, symbols, and designs. Common types of intellectual property rights include copyright, trademarks, patents, industrial design rights, trade dress, and in some jurisdictions trade secrets. Although many of the legal principles governing intellectual property rights have evolved over centuries, it was not until the 19th century that the term intellectual property began to be used, and not until the late 20th century that it became commonplace in the majority of the world.[2] The British Statute of Anne (1710) and the Statute of Monopolies (1624) are now seen as the origins of copyright and patent law respectively.[3] History[edit] Types[edit] Patents[edit] Copyright[edit] Morality[edit]
