Google Patent Search

by Gilad on December 13th, 2006

Google Patent Search was introduced today. This feature makes it easy to search the full text of the U.S. patent corpus and find patents that interest you.

The site uses much of the same technology that powers Google Book Search, so you can scroll through pages and zoom in on text and illustrations just like you can with books.

“It’s a natural extension of our mission to make this public domain government information more easily accessible using Google’s search technology. We’re pleased to have started with over 7 million patents granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and look forward to expanding our coverage over time.”

From adhesive tape and contact lenses to, things useful in specific situations, like this shark protector suit or this amusement device incorporating simulated cheese and mice. Google patents has it all.
