Abstract
La producción de conocimiento e información deviene en la mejora de los estándares de vida. El desarrollo económico ha determinado que los productores de este conocimiento deben ser recompensados adecuadamente por sus invenciones, ya que de esa manera se promueve la innovación y la solución de problemas que afectan a la productividad y a la calidad de vida de las personas. Dentro de estas recompensas aparecen los derechos de propiedad que se otorgan mediante una patente de invención. Sin embargo, durante el desarrollo del proceso de invención hay un momento en que el inventor está en la necesidad de probar o experimentar su innovación, para lo que se enfrenta a la necesidad de hacerla pública, sin que su desarrollo le permita presentar una solicitud de patente definitiva. Para esta situación, y con la finalidad de proteger su proceso creativo, se consideran útil un tipo de patente provisional, que durará un tiempo hasta que pueda pedir su patente definitiva. Este artículo analiza la patente provisional y su re-introducción en el sistema chileno de propiedad intelectual, desde una perspectiva comparada e histórica.
The production of knowledge and information results in the improvement of living standards. Economic development has determined that the producers of this knowledge must be adequately rewarded for their inventions, considering that innovation and the solution for problems that affect people's productivity and quality of life must be protected. These rewards include property rights granted by an invention patent. However, in the invention process, there is a time when the inventor needs testing or experimenting for his innovation, and it will become public without the protection of a final patent application. In this situation and to protect the creative process, it is functional to introduce a type of provisional patent. It will last for a while until the request for a nonprovisional patent. This article analyzes the provisional patent and its re-introduction into the Chilean law of intellectual property from a comparative and historical perspective.
