File Description [top]

CLAIMS®/REFERENCE (File 124) is a dictionary index to the two subject classifications which are searchable in the CLAIMS family of patent databases (File 340, 341, 942). File 124 describes these two distinct systems of indexing: (1) U.S. Patent Classification codes from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and (2) the UNITERM and CDB indexing system developed by IFI CLAIMS Patent Services.

The description of the U.S. Patent Classification corresponds to the Manual of Classification and the Index to the U.S. Patent Classification issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

The UNITERM and CDB indexing terms correspond to the IFI/CLAIMS Vocabulary and Thesaurus for use in the CLAIMS®/UNITERM (File 341) and CLAIMS®/COMPREHENSIVE (File 942) databases.



Subject Coverage [top]

The U.S. Patent Classification system contains about 400 classes and 10,000 subclasses covering all technologies. The UNITERM and CDB indexing system covers chemical and chemically related technology.

1 All chemical names are indexed as complete individual words and chemically significant segments of words. Words such as GLUCOPYRANOSYL can be retrieved by either segment, e.g., S GLUCO or S PYRANOSYL. Locants, i.e., numbers indicating the position of a chemical group within the structure, are searched as words, e.g., S 2(w)3.
