Design patent protection
« on: 03-02-10 at 08:35 am »

I've filed a design patent directed to some general embodiments, specific embodiments, and about 30 different images that reflect those embodiments, either broadly or narrowly.

I'm not a design patent expert by any means... but if I read things correctly, while I might be restricted to only "x" number of images, I can file divisional patents and claim benefit to the parent for any of the other images, even if but 1 at a time.

Does that sound right?

I couldn't find a better thread/forum - please move if necessary.  Thanks.
