Unity of invention under the European Patent Convention : ウィキペディア英語版 | Unity of invention under the European Patent Convention
Under , a European patent application must "...relate to one invention only or to a group of inventions so linked as to form a single general inventive concept."〔 〕 This legal provision is the application, within the European Patent Convention, of the requirement of unity of invention, which applies also in many other jurisdictions. The lack of unity or non-unity (of invention), can appear either ''a priori'', i.e., before taking into account the prior art, or ''a posteriori'', i.e., after taking into account the prior art. An ''a posteriori'' lack of unity usually results from a lack of novelty or inventive step of the subject-matter of one independent claim. == Unity amongst a group of inventions== When a European patent application claims a group of inventions, "unity of invention" is considered present if "...there is a technical relationship among those inventions involving one or more of the same or corresponding special technical features."
