Abstract

      If the objective conditions are met in the invention, it becomes possible for the inventor to obtain legal protection guaranteed by the laws regulating intellectual property. The patent occupies a privileged position among industrial property rights, and its registration with the competent administrative authorities is the legal means to confer legal protection on the invention and serves as the title deed to the inventor. However, some inventors come up with certain inventions and refuse to register them, that is, they want to keep them secretly and dispose of them for their own interests without concern for the interest of society. In this study, I dealt with the scope of the inventor’s rights in his unregistered invention, the conditions of the invention and the reasons for not registering it.
