Unreadable scans CN106278844

Post by MartinSmidt » Mon Mar 20, 2017 10:02 am

Dear Sir, Madam,
CN106278844 includes a diagram of a flowsheet. The scan of this flowsheet is of such bad quality that it is impossible to make out the numbering. The flowsheet is explained in the text but without knowledge of the numbers it is rather hard to grasp the value of this application.
Would it be possible to obtain a better quality scan of the original diagram ?

Best Regards
Maritn

Dear Martin,

We checked and there is indeed a better PDF copy of this Chinese document available where the reference numbers are clearly visible in the drawing. This can be located at the original source, which is the official publication platform of the State Intellectual Property Office of China. (http://www.sipo.gov.cn/zhfwpt/zlgbggcx/)

As the search interface is in Chinese language only, you can find a search guide which describes step by step how to navigate this source in the "Searching in databases" section of our "virtual helpdesk" on Asian patent information. The search guide you need is called "SIPO - Retrieving Chinese documents". (http://www.epo.org/searching-for-patent ... earch.html) This should help you find and download the document easily, even if you cannot read the language.

However, should you need any help finding what you need, please do not hesitate to send us an e-mail at asiainfo@epo.org and we will be happy to assist you further.

Best regards,

The EPO's Asian Patent Information Services
