Family Search Features

In PatBase Express, the user can view all members of a patent family under the family table (which lists the country, publication number, publication date, application number, application date, and description for each family member) when viewing the bibliographic record for the result. One may also view the available PDF document for each family member in a separate viewing window by selecting the hyperlink in the publication number.


Viewing the available PDF version of an EP family member, opened from the family table.


Finally, the user can view all family members (and any available full-text sections) by selecting the "Claims and Descriptions" link in the bibliographic record. The "Claims and Descriptions" view lists all family member publication numbers and any available full or non-Latin text sections (see the Viewing Full Text section of this report for more information).


View the list of all family members (and their available full-text or non-Latin text sections) under the "Claims and Descriptions" view.


However, there are no comprehensive family search features, such as the Family Explorer window available in the regular version of PatBase.
