+1, the idea in itself is nice, maybe - ideally - you could make some sort of "public" submission form ending up in a list , and then make into production the most voted/asked for, and - say - send a free print to the person submitting the most voted one weekly or monthly. BTW, and as a side note, not all Patent images are reproducible free of charge, so the above list might need to have an additional field for it being public domain or otherwise, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Images_from_US_patent... Another thing, I concur with the people that see the large print of the whatever commercial name as being a spoiler of some sort, the original title might be better, as an example the "Gameboy" patent title is(was): http://www.google.com/patents/US5184830 "Compact hand-held video game system"
and the iPhone is "Electronic device":
https://www.google.com/patents/USD615083S1
which sound (at least to me) a lot better. Just as an idea, you could then have the "Gameboy" printed on the back and an extract of the patent text, like the "Field of Invention" or however the summary. Just for your information, there is something wrong in the iPhone one, is it May 4,2010 or June 5, 2008? (i.e. publishing date vs. filing date)
And the patent number is either USD615083 S1 or US D615083 S1, not just S. |
