If you plan to file a patent application, it is a good idea to conduct a search of patents previously granted, and also of printed publications to make sure that your idea has not already been patented or disclosed. With over 6 million patents already issued, such a search avoids the needless expense of funds for a patent application, if the search turns up prior patents that might preclude your invention from being issued a patent.

Once you apply for your patent, the first thing the Patent Office Examiner does is to perform a search of prior patents in the search room at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in Washington. If similar inventions are found in the search, the Examiner can reject your patent application because of the prior art he finds. Consequently, you want to know what the Examiner is going to find before you go to the expense of time and money of filing your patent application.
