Google Patents Search

This skill searches the public Google Patents database, returning matching patents with publication numbers, titles, inventors, assignees, dates, CPC classifications, and PDF links. Useful for cross-border sellers doing freedom-to-operate (FTO) checks, prior-art searches, and patent-infringement risk screening before listing a product.

Core Concepts

Google Patents Search runs a query (q) against the public Google Patents corpus. The query supports Google Patents' native advanced syntax (e.g. owner:"company", inventor:"name", date ranges). Results are returned as a ranked list of patents (and optionally Google Scholar articles).

This skill returns a list of patents with bibliographic fields. To retrieve detailed bibliographic data, full text, legal status, family, or images for a specific patent found here, feed the returned patentId/publicationNumber into the corresponding linkfox-zhihuiya-bibliography / linkfox-zhihuiya-legal-status / linkfox-zhihuiya-patent-family skills.
