Abstract

Disclosed are systems, apparatuses, processes, and computer-readable media to convert apparatus and method claims into patent application disclosure. A process includes displaying a user interface for writing a patent application, the user interface including a plurality of objects that can be converted into content for the patent application; displaying a claim based on phrases that are separated based on a phrase variant, the phrase variant including at least one of an adjective phrase and a verb phrase; determining that a first phrase of the claim is dragged in the user interface and dropped into an object of the plurality of objects; creating and displaying a first object within the user interface based on the first phrase; and converting the plurality of objects in the user interface into the patent application including content based on the plurality of objects within the user interface

1 . A method for preparing a patent application based on claims, comprising:
 displaying a user interface for writing a patent application, the user interface including a plurality of objects that can be converted into content for the patent application;   displaying a claim based on phrases that are separated based on a phrase variant, the phrase variant including at least one of an adjective phrase and a verb phrase;   determining that a first phrase of the claim is dragged in the user interface and dropped into an object of the plurality of objects;   creating and displaying a first object within the user interface based on the first phrase; and   converting the plurality of objects in the user interface into the patent application including content based on the plurality of objects within the user interface.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of objects are nodes within a tree view component. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein the converting the plurality of objects comprises:
 constructing a sentence based on the first phrase, a subject of the first phrase, and a context associated with the first phrase.   
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 3 , further comprising:
 identifying a description in a different document or document section that corresponds to a claim term in the first phrase; and   injecting the description into the sentence based on the description.   
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 4 , wherein the description comprises one of a reference label or a plain English description of the claim term. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 4 , further comprising:
 displaying a user interface that illustrates relevant content in the document section or the different document; and   identifying relationships between at least two of a claim term, a reference label of a drawing, and a drawing description.   
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 3 , further comprising:
 displaying a user interface to edit the sentence.   
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 6 , wherein the first phrase is immutable in the user interface. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 constructing a graph including a plurality of nodes associated with at least a portion of phrases from a set of claims based on a context and a subject for each phrase of the portion of phrases, wherein the set of claims that includes the claim, and wherein each phrase correspond to a node in the graph.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising:
 inserting at least one metadata node into the graph based on a context of child content, wherein the at least one metadata node defines a collapsible parent node that provides a context associated with child nodes.   
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 inserting metadata into a document of the patent application that identifies at least one object of the plurality of objects in the user interface.   
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising:
 reading the document of the patent application and embedded into content associated with the document; and   restoring a state of the plurality of objects based on the metadata.   
     
     
         13 . A computing system for generating a patent application based on apparatus claims, comprising:
 a storage configured to store instructions;   a processor configured to execute the instructions and cause the processor to:
 display a user interface for writing a patent application, the user interface including a plurality of objects that can be converted into content for the patent application; 
 display a claim based on phrases that are separated based on a phrase variant, the phrase variant including at least one of an adjective phrase and a verb phrase; 
 determining that a first phrase of the claim is dragged in the user interface and dropped into an object of the plurality of objects; 
 create and displaying a first object within the user interface based on the first phrase; and 
 convert the plurality of objects in the user interface into the patent application including content based on the plurality of objects within the user interface. 
   
     
     
         14 . The computing system of  claim 13 , wherein the plurality of objects are nodes within a tree view component. 
     
     
         15 . The computing system of  claim 14 , wherein the processor is configured to execute the instructions and cause the processor to:
 construct a sentence based on the first phrase, a subject of the first phrase, and a context associated with the first phrase.   
     
     
         16 . The computing system of  claim 15 , wherein the processor is configured to execute the instructions and cause the processor to:
 identify a description in a different document or document section that corresponds to a claim term in the first phrase; and   inject the description into the sentence based on the description.   
     
     
         17 . The computing system of  claim 16 , wherein the description comprises one of a reference label or a plain English description of the claim term. 
     
     
         18 . The computing system of  claim 16 , wherein the processor is configured to execute the instructions and cause the processor to:
 display a user interface that illustrates relevant content in the document section or the different document; and   identify relationships between at least two of a claim term, a reference label of a drawing, and a drawing description.   
     
     
         19 . The computing system of  claim 18 , wherein the first phrase is immutable in the user interface. 
     
     
         20 . A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions, the instructions, when executed by a computing system, cause the computing system to:
 display a user interface for writing a patent application, the user interface including a plurality of objects that can be converted into content for the patent application;   display a claim based on phrases that are separated based on a phrase variant, the phrase variant including at least one of an adjective phrase and a verb phrase;   determining that a first phrase of the claim is dragged in the user interface and dropped into an object of the plurality of objects;   create and displaying a first object within the user interface based on the first phrase; and   convert the plurality of objects in the user interface into the patent application including content based on the plurality of objects within the user interface.
