The 50,000 Volt Circuit Board Patent
How We Helped a Client With a Niche Patent - Circuit Board Testing Machine
Hi, I'm Rich Beem. I'm a patent attorney in Chicago. I'd like to tell you about one client in Texas who found me because they saw on our website a circuit board patent and they had a circuit board invention. It was a very unique circuit board. It was meant for handling 50,000 volts. It was for testing electrical equipment and they ran 50,000 volts through these things to test them. Well, that's nothing to sneeze at, and the way they were doing it is they had women who were very coordinated take these little probes and attach them to the circuit board. They had to stand on rubber mats and run 50,000 volts through them. Well, that's something that you can't afford to make any mistakes, and they wanted to automate it and have machines do that so they could eliminate the risks for the people. So they came to us with this circuit board testing machine that automated the process and they asked us to prepare and file a patent application, which we did. And it led to the issuance of a patent that was very important in their business. You may have a particular technology that is your niche, that you want to get a patent on to protect. When you do, call me. That's what I do. I'm Rich Beem, I can be reached at 312-201-0011. Thank you.
