US20140000849A1 not found

Hi,

I do not get results when searching for US20140000849A1.

In Espacenet it's available: https://worldwide.espacenet.com/patent/ ... 40000849A1

Any reason why I do not get results via the API?

Thanks!

Hi,

The drawing also contains the number with 4x zeros.

Is there a service to "fix" such a wrong number automatically?

[EPO / OPS Support]

Hi,

EPO is not using original number formats, we use either EPODOC (Classics Espacenet, OPS) or DOCDB numbering format (NEW Espacenet, OPS)

You can see DOCDB rules in the 2 tables here: https://www.epo.org/searching-for-paten ... gular.html

See tables 2 and 3 for DOCDB numbers formats
