ಟೆಂಪ್ಲೇಟು:US patent reference/doc ಇಗೆ ಮೂಲವನ್ನು ವಿಕ್ಷಿಸಿ

{{documentation subpage}}
This template is mostly for inclusion in the "References" section of article, giving detailed description of [[US patent]]: the inventor, title, and link to find full text in US patent office database.

== Usage ==

<pre>
{{US patent reference
 | number = 
 | y = 
 | m = 
 | d = 
 | inventor = 
 | title = 
}}</pre>

* '''number''' (required) is a patent number, without leading "US" letters, but with leading "D" letter if patent number contains it, and is required.
* '''y''', '''m''', '''d''' (optional) are the year, month and day of issuing (granting). Four digits are required for the year, and two for the month and day ''even if the first digit is zero''.
* '''inventor''' (optional) is a name of inventor; it can be a wiki-link, of course.
* '''title''' (optional) is the title of the patent.

== Sample rendering ==

<pre>
{{US patent reference
 | number = 5285709
 | y = 1994
 | m = 02
 | d = 15
 | inventor = John D. Grant
 | title = Machine head for tuning a stringed instrument, especially a guitar or the like
}}
</pre>

Preferably, after inclusion of this template in "references", one should give less formal and more reader-friendly explanation of what this patent is all about.
