divisional patent application
A divisional patent application (sometimes referred to as a divisional application or simply a divisional) is a type of patent application which contains matter from a previously filed application (the so-called parent application). Whilst a divisional application is filed later than the parent application, it may retain its parent's filing date, and will generally claim the same priority.
Divisional applications are generally used in cases where the parent application may lack unity of invention; that is, the parent application describes more than one invention and the applicant is required to split the parent into one or more divisional applications each claiming only a single invention. The ability to file divisional applications in cases of lack of unity of invention is required by Article 4G of the Paris Convention.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = WIPO )〕
==Practice by jurisdiction==
The practice and procedure of filing a divisional patent application varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. In most countries, the filing of divisional applications is possible at least as long as the parent patent applications is pending. With a decision of the Administrative Council of the European Patent Organisation of October 16, 2013, the European Patent Office rules will again be in line with the current practice before the patent offices in the U.S., Germany and Japan.
