The mystery to me, is that it seems, no one ever challenges the patent as not
being worthy of a patent because no invention was made, by requesting to see the
"device" that the patentee invented. I know it is no longer necessary
to file the invention with the patent application, but I've seen no where, where
you can obtain a patent until you've actually invented the device. Otherwise
you're just patenting an idea.
Thomas Edison had an idea, it was a novel idea, to create a device that creates
light using electricity. He spent many years actually building a working model.
He then got a patent on a light bulb. But it was not so easy to go from the idea
to the invention.
Shouldn't it be possible to force the "inventors" to demonstrate the
device that practices the patent they patented? Shouldn't that be an absolute
requirement that they actually have the device? Wouldn't it be fraudulent to
file for a patent without actually creating the device?
