It can be bought, sold, given and used in the same way as tangible property, such as houses, cars, and of value and utility, with some significant patents, famous trademarks or works much higher than tangible property。
What are the elements of iprs
The core elements of intellectual property rights include copyrights, patents, trademarks, trade secrets, geographical indications, the design of integrated circuit maps, new varieties of plants and other legal rights. The breakdown is as follows:
Main type
Copyright (copyright) covers the rights to the signature, publication, modification and protection of the integrity of literary, artistic and scientific works, including computer software and neighbouring rights。
Patent rights: these categories are inventions, practical novelty and visual design, giving rights holders exclusive rights to the implementation of technological results over a period of time。
Trademark rights: including trade marks for goods, service trademarks, collective trademarks, certification of trademarks, etc., the right of the registrant to exclusive use and the right to prohibit others from using a similar trademark。

The duration of protection of intellectual property varies according to the type of right. Specifically:
Inventor patent rights: the period of protection is 20 years, calculated from the date of application. In the case of patents for inventions in specific areas, such as new medicines, the time taken for review and approval may result in compensation for the duration of the patent, but not more than five years, and for the duration of the total valid patent upon the approval of the new drug for a period not exceeding fourteen years。

In europe, the duration of patent protection for skin design is five years from the date of application, after which it may be renewed four times for five years each, with a maximum protection period of twenty-five years. In my country, however, patenting for visual design is based on a fixed protection period of fifteen years。
