4.14 Definition by reference to (use with) another entity
A revised version of this publication entered into force. |
Once it has been established if a claim is directed to either one entity or to a combination of entities, the wording of the claim must be adapted appropriately to reflect it; otherwise the claim is objected to under Art. 84.
For example, in the case of a claim directed to a single entity, the first entity is "connectable" to the second entity; in the case of a claim directed to a combination of entities the first entity is "connected" to the second entity.
