A patent gives you the right to bar others from making, selling, using or importing your product in the United States. Congress writes the laws related to patents. Currently, patents last 20 years from the date on which the patent was filed. Patent laws only work in the United States.
The U.S. awards three types of patents:
Utility Patents - for discoveries of new, useful machines, composition of matter or any improvements
Design Patents - for new designs of an article for manufacture
Plant Patents - for anyone who invents or discovers and asexually reproduces a new species of plant
