I have 2 patents for an internal combustion engine design so I'll try to answer your questions. The only place that can give you a patent ultimately is the united states government. Patents have to be prepared in a very specific way. For instance you can't just send in a description of your invention, it has to be written in a way that makes you patent application a legal document and is very spefic about what you are claiming as original and various variations of your idea. If you look in the phone book (assuming you are in the US) you should be able to find the names of patent attorneys in your local. Patents are typically made public unless I think there is some sort of national security reason not publish them.

I would recommend though that you do your own patent search first though at the US patent and trademark website.http://www.uspto.gov/patft/index.html[^]. This is the best place to check since that is what patent examiners look at. But I would also check other places to be safe.

One other thing, if you don't plan to apply for a patent right away it might not be a bad idea to write up a description of your idea and get it notorized at a notary. This will give you evidence of when you invented something if a dispute happens in the future about who invented something first.

good luck,

Mike
