Which type of patent document provides a detailed description of an invention and is published after the patent is granted ?

  • A.Patent application
  • B.Provisional patent
  • C.Patent specification
  • D.Patent claim

Answer: C

The document is the Patent specification.

The complete specification describes the invention in full, with the background, the detailed description and drawings that would let a skilled person carry it out, and ends with the claims that define the protection. It is the document published as the patent.

A patent application is the request filed to the patent office. A provisional specification is an early, incomplete description filed to secure a priority date. A patent claim is only the part of the specification that states the legal scope, not the detailed description.
