Let's go from the top.\n\nAny idea that you have, that has not been done before, can be made into a patent.\n\nRule 1 Do not disclose any information to any person verbally or written as this is called prior disclosure and because you may have spoken to a friend about it means that the patent may no longer valid.\n\nRule 2 Try and do some research into your claim. Has anyone else worldwide thought of the same idea. Search for it elsewhere in your country or the world.\n\nRule 3 If it has not been done before, submit an initial claim to the Indian government patent society (or whatever they are called)\n\nRule 4 Get an Intellectual Properties Lawyer to sign a non disclosure agreement or intellectual property rights agreement. Once this is done you can discuss only with him. He can then progress all the legal requirements necessary.\n\nAt this point once the patent application is registered you can get financial backing by offering a small stake to potential licencees (ensure that you sign a confidentiality agreement first).\n\nRule 5 Decide on which countries to persue your patent in, as registering a patent in lots of countries costs a great deal of money to do. (Lawyer will advise)\n\nI wish you every success.

Try the US Patent Office.  Perhaps the FAQ's can help a little.

from personal experience-DO NOT I repeat DO NOT send your idea to one of those "help you patent" outfits- I did, and didn't have the money to follow through with a patent on my own- now a major company is making a knock off of my invention! if your idea is something totally new, then you need to figure out how to develop it your own- learn how to build it so you can see if it's a really valid idea. if an improvement to something that already exists you may be able to patent "improvement to prior art"- either way a good place to start is:\n\nhttp://www.uspto.gov/patft/index.html\n\nlook to see if anything already exists like your idea, and if not then start development!

First off, make sure that your "idea" hasnt already been patented by someone else by conducting a search of prior art.  I don't recommend going to a patent company but definitely go to a patent law firm.  This is highly recommended by the USPTO but unfortunately, this can cost you lots of money. be prepared to spend around $20,000 for a patent.\n\nHere's an excerpt from the uspto website:\n\n"The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) strongly recommends that all prospective applicants retain the services of a registered patent attorney or patent agent to prepare and prosecute their applications. For information on registered patent attorneys and agents in your area, you may visit the USPTO's Office of Enrollment and Discipline Web site at http://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/dcom/gcounsel/oed.htm. Upon request, the USPTO will send informational materials providing a broad overview of the process of obtaining a United States patent. They will include general requirements and a listing of the Patent and Trademark Depository Libraries."

I would start by going on-line to http://acswebcontent.acs.org/home.html\nThis is the website for the American Chemical Society. I would poke around here and find some contacts to pose your question to. I think they could help give you some direction. Also if you are interested in inventions you should pick a copy of "Patent it Yourself" by David Pressman, it tells you all the steps involved in obtaining a patent and how to protect your idea. If your interested in getting this book the ISBN # is 1-4133-0180-0   Good luck.

As a patent holder let me give you some advice here:\n(1) You may be hungry - pull your belt tight and try to wait it out\n(2) Register your patent ASAP - say ZERO to anyone else\n(3) Once your patent is registered, when you talk to companies make then sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement with Breach Guarantee where they have to register with a Bond agent that will secure a bond of say $5million, $10million or whatever you think your patent is worth and have it in the NDA that if they develop or reverse engineer or anything along those lines a product that is or mimics or competes with your product and idea, they are in Breach and have to pay you the bond money.\n\nNow, a final word of advice.  BUILD the item.  Have a unit as a demo.  Do not just write an idea down.  Once you have it built, price out the parts and the item and figure out how to replicate it cheaply over and over again.  Then make a few extra prototypes. Start up your own company and offer the product for sale.\n\nOnce you have a physical product that backs up a patent and you offer it for sale, you win in court all the time.  Now that you have it available for sale and can replicate it, now is the time to persue other companies for the product.\n\nIf you start to get SALES on your product, do press releases, make updates and upgrades, and try to get as much press as possible.  Go on Tech TV shows and promote yourself.  Once you become a NAME your idea now becomes a hot property and people will pay you for it.\n\nAt no point in time should you EVER think that you are going to make money overnight by making a patent.  I learned that lesson the hard way.

If your idea is truly unique you should look to get a patent before showing to anyone.  You should also make sure nobody else patented it.  Find a good patent lawyer.\n\nOnce you have this you can approach companies. There are many ways to profit on your idea and it may not be just one way and often depends on the needs of the specific company.

Your new product should fall into one of these categories...\n\nThere are three types of patents: \n\n1) Utility patents may be granted to anyone who invents or discovers any new and useful process, machine, article of manufacture, or composition of matter, or any new and useful improvement thereof; \n\n2) Design patents may be granted to anyone who invents a new, original, and ornamental design for an article of manufacture; and \n\n3) Plant patents may be granted to anyone who invents or discovers and asexually reproduces any distinct and new variety of plant. \n\nDefinitely contact an intellectual property attorney. Also, read more about patents at the USPTO site & at Nolo. I listed the links.\n\nI also listed some handy marketing links.\n\nDo you have a name in mind for your product? Prior to investing your time, money & effort into a name, it is strongly advised that comprehensive research be conducted to ensure that the name you're interested in is truly available. \n\nThis entails searching the pending & registered Federal and State trademark files as well as the US National Common-Law files. Then, if clear, you can decide if you would like to file for a Federal or a State trademark. \n\nResearch is needed to make sure your trade name is legally available, before opening, before expansion, before incorporation or before designing your logo. Similarities in sound, appearance and meaning affect you too!\n\nThere are 16+ million trade names in use in the United States. Similar names matter, if close in sound, appearance or meaning. Similar names in related classes, distribution channels and customer matter too. You are affected by Common Law use (14 million), State Trademarks (500,000) and Federal Trademarks (2 million). \n\n\nHope that helps!

You should consult with a "Patent Attorney" to properly protect your invention, establish priority (document that you are the first inventor), have a patent search performed (usually by specialists) to prove novelty and to prepare a patent application in the correct form.  Bar Associations can give you lists of patent attorneys (near you?).  You should avoid disclosing your invention (except to a disinterested witness who can testify that they inderstand the invention and the date they witnessed it and sign and date a sketch, etc.) to the public because it may enter the public domain and you could lose all rights to it.  Often, you have only one year to apply for a patent once it is publically disclosed.  Good luck.
