Kind of IPC and CPC for patents in LOD
Posted: Fri Aug 31, 2018 8:00 am
Hello,
I ask you what kind of IPC and CPC are associated to cathegorize a patent in LOD.
In fact the OPS distinguishes different cases, in the table at page 136 of the OPS manual
My guess is that in the case of LOD the CPC used is what defined as cpc in the table 136 of
the OPS manual, whilst the the IPC used is what defined ipc in the table 136 of the OPS.
Hence I guess that in OPS more detailed subcases as cpca, cpci, cpcc , and the same for IPC,
are not considered relevant and hence not coded. Is it correct?
Thank you and best regards
