--- name: linkfox-eureka-patent-image-search description: 通过Eureka专利平台进行专利图像检索（以图搜图），上传一张图片URL即可检索外观设计或实用新型的相似专利。当用户提到专利图像检索、以图搜专利、外观设计搜索、图片相似专利、设计专利检索、图像搜索专利、专利视觉搜索、patent image search, search patent by image, design patent search, visual patent search, similar design patent, image similarity search, patent image matching, utility patent shape match, Eureka image search时触发此技能。即使用户未明确提及"Eureka"或"图像检索"，只要其需求涉及通过图片查找相似的外观设计专利或实用新型专利，也应触发此技能。 --- # Eureka Patent Image Search (Single Image) This skill guides you on how to perform patent image search (search-by-image) via the Eureka patent platform. Given a single image URL, it finds visually similar patents in the design or utility patent databases, supporting multiple search models and extensive filtering options. ## Core Concepts The Eureka Patent Image Search tool enables visual similarity search across patent databases: 1. **Search Models** — Four models are available depending on the patent type and search intent: - Model 1: Design smart association — finds design patents with intelligent visual association - Model 2: Design search this image — exact visual match for design patents - Model 3: Utility match shape — matches utility patents by shape/contour - Model 4: Utility match shape + pattern + color — matches utility patents by shape, pattern, and color combined 2. **Patent Types** — Two patent types are supported: - `D` (Design) — search within design/industrial design patents (use models 1 or 2) - `U` (Utility) — search within utility model patents (use models 3 or 4) 3. **Filtering** — Extensive optional filters for country/authority, Locarno classification, date ranges, legal status, assignees, and keyword fields. 4. **Scoring** — Results include a similarity `score` and can be sorted by score, application date, publication date, or issue date. ## Parameter Guide ### Required Parameters | Parameter | Type | Description | |-----------|------|-------------| | url | string | The URL of the image to search with. Must be a publicly accessible image URL. | | model | integer | Search model: 1 = design smart association, 2 = design search this image, 3 = utility match shape, 4 = utility match shape + pattern + color | | patentType | string | Patent type to search: "D" = design patent, "U" = utility patent | ### Optional Parameters | Parameter | Type | Default | Description | |-----------|------|---------|-------------| | country | string | — | Patent authority codes, comma-separated (e.g., CN,US,JP,EP,WO) | | loc | string | — | Locarno classification code.

Values: 1=Published, 2=Examining, 3=Granted, 11=Withdrawn, 13=Rejected, 14=Revoked, 15=Expired, etc. | | simpleLegalStatus | string | — | Simplified legal status: 0=Invalid, 1=Valid, 2=Pending, 220=PCT expired, 221=PCT in period, 999=Undetermined | | preFilter | integer | 1 | Enable (1) or disable (0) pre-filtering by country and LOC classification | | scoreExpansion | boolean | — | Enable score expansion for broader results | | stemming | integer | 0 | Enable (1) or disable (0) word stemming in keyword search | | includeMachineTranslation | boolean | — | Include machine-translated content in search | | field | string | SCORE | Sort field: SCORE (similarity), APD (application date), PBD (publication date), ISD (issue date) | | order | string | desc | Sort order: desc or asc | | limit | integer | 10 | Results per page, range 1–100 | | offset | integer | 0 | Pagination offset, range 0–1000 | | lang | string | — | Title language preference: original, cn, en | | isHttps | integer | — | Return image URLs with HTTPS (1) or HTTP (0) | | returnImgId | boolean | — | Include image ID in results | ### Model & Patent Type Combinations | Patent Type | Recommended Models | Description | |-------------|-------------------|-------------| | D (Design) | 1, 2 | Model 1 for smart association, Model 2 for exact visual match | | U (Utility) | 3, 4 | Model 3 for shape match, Model 4 for shape + pattern + color | ## Response Fields | Field | Description | |-------|-------------| | patentId | The patent's internal ID | | patentPn | Publication number | | title | Patent title | | url | URL of the similar image found in the patent | | score | Similarity score | | apdt | Application date | | pbdt | Publication date | | authority | Patent authority (country code) | | inventor | Inventor name | | apno | Application number | | originalAssignee | Original applicant/assignee | | currentAssignee | Current rights holder | | loc | Array of Locarno classification codes | | imgId | Image ID (when returnImgId is enabled) | | locMatch | Whether the Locarno classification matched the filter | | total | Number of results in current page | | allRecordsCount | Total number of matching results | | costToken | Token cost for this query | ## Usage Examples **1. Search for similar design patents using an image** ``` Search for design patents similar to this image: https://example.com/product-image.jpg — look in CN and US patent databases. ``` → Use model=1 or 2, patentType="D", country="CN,US" **2. Find utility patents with a similar shape** ``` Find utility patents that have a similar shape to this product image: https://example.com/gadget.png ``` → Use model=3, patentType="U" **3. Search with date and legal status filters** ``` Search for valid design patents similar to this image, filed after 2020, in the CN database: https://example.com/design.jpg ``` → Use model=2, patentType="D", country="CN", applyStartTime="20200101", simpleLegalStatus="1" **4. Search with Locarno classification** ``` Find design patents in LOC 14-01 similar to this product: https://example.com/phone-case.jpg ``` → Use model=1, patentType="D", loc="14-01" **5. Search with keyword and assignee filters** ``` Search for design patents similar to this image from Apple Inc.: https://example.com/device.jpg ``` → Use model=2, patentType="D", assignees="Apple" **6. Get more results with pagination** ``` Show me the next 20 design patents similar to this image: https://example.com/product.jpg ``` → Use limit=20, offset=20 ## Display Rules 1. **Present results as a visual gallery when possible**: Show the patent publication number, title, similarity score, and image URL for each result. 2. **Score interpretation**: Higher scores indicate greater visual similarity. Present scores as percentages or relative rankings for user clarity. 3. **Key metadata**: Always include patent number, title, authority, application date, and assignee for each result. 4. **Total count**: Mention `allRecordsCount` to indicate how many total matches were found, and how many are displayed. 5. **Model explanation**: When presenting results, briefly note which search model was used so the user understands the matching approach. 6. **Error handling**: If the query fails, check common issues: invalid image URL, unsupported image format, invalid model/patentType combination. 7. **Pagination guidance**: If there are more results than displayed, inform the user they can request more. ## Important Limitations - **Single image only**: This endpoint accepts one image URL per request. - **Image URL must be publicly accessible**: Private or authentication-required image URLs will fail. - **Model & patent type pairing**: Models 1–2 are for design patents (D), models 3–4 are for utility patents (U). Mismatched combinations may produce poor results. - **Offset limit**: Maximum offset is 1000, meaning at most 1000 + limit results can be accessed via pagination. - **Locarno classification**: The `loc` parameter uses Locarno codes; users may need help identifying the correct code for their product category. ## User Expression & Scenario Quick Reference **Applicable** — Visual patent search queries: | User Says | Scenario | |-----------|----------| | "Search for patents similar to this image" | Basic image search | | "Find design patents that look like this" | Design patent visual search | | "Are there utility patents with this shape" | Utility patent shape match | | "Search CN and US design patents for this product image" | Filtered image search | | "Find valid patents similar to this design" | Legal status-filtered search | | "Show me more results" | Pagination request | | "Search in Locarno class 14-01" | Classification-filtered search | **Not applicable** — Needs beyond image search: - Patent text-based search (keyword, classification, applicant) - Patent bibliography or metadata retrieval - Patent legal status queries - Patent claims or description retrieval - Patent family analysis - Multi-image or batch image search **Feedback:** Auto-detect and report feedback via the Feedback API when any of the following apply: 1.
