35 U.S.C. 112 Specification. - Patent Laws
35 U.S.C. 112 Specification.
The specification shall contain a written description of the invention, and of the
manner and process of making and using it, in such full, clear, concise, and exact
terms as to enable any person skilled in the art to which it pertains, or with which it
is most nearly connected, to make and use the same, and shall set forth the best
mode contemplated by the inventor of carrying out his invention.
The specification shall conclude with one or more claims particularly pointing out
and distinctly claiming the subject matter which the applicant regards as his
invention.
A claim may be written in independent or, if the nature of the case admits, in
dependent or multiple dependent form.
Subject to the following paragraph, a claim in dependent form shall contain a
reference to a claim previously set forth and then specify a further limitation of the
subject matter claimed. A claim in dependent form shall be construed to incorporate
by reference all the limitations of the claim to which it refers.
A claim in multiple dependent form shall contain a reference, in the alternative only,
to more than one claim previously set forth and then specify a further limitation of
the subject matter claimed. A multiple dependent claim shall not serve as a basis
for any other multiple dependent claim. A multiple dependent claim shall be
construed to incorporate by reference all the limitations of the particular claim in
relation to which it is being considered.
An element in a claim for a combination may be expressed as a means or step for
performing a specified function without the recital of structure, material, or acts in
support thereof, and such claim shall be construed to cover the corresponding
structure, material, or acts described in the specification and equivalents thereof.
