Abstract:Core patents play an important role in the industry, to distinguish the core patents, basic patents, peripheral patents and important patents in theory, and summarize the characteristics and definitions of core patents. Then, taking in the field of new energy automobile device as the analysis data, using multiple regression model empirical analysis of core patents mining index, the result shows that the number of cited patents, IPC classification numbers, patent family number and the number of cited patent family are the significantly related to the core patents, but the number of pages of the specifications, the number of pages of the figure, and the abstract words is not significant in logic regression. The patent licensing may be positively related to core patents, the patent right transfer has no relative to core patents. This paper enriches the theoretical index of core patents mining, and meaningful managerial guiding for core patents mining based on this study.
