Resource: free full text Russian patents
I’ve stumbled upon a site which offers full text Russian patents for free – http://partkom.com
In fact, a year ago we attempted to set up a similar resource – except we dealt with english abstracts of Russian patents. Sadly, shortly after launching the project we discovered that Russian patent office totally redesigned their web site and access to english abstracts of Russian patents was totally gone (words of Soviet-era hymn “International” came to mind…”Entire world of violence, we razed to the ground, and then we will build our new world to build – who was nothing will become everything.”)
Anyway, partkom.com approach is also quite limited – as they acknowledge, “We do not set out to make a complex multifunction system – there will be no Categorization, or advanced search. Just use the search on the recently issued patent number – if the search yielded no results, then such patent in our system is not available yet.
We are trying to automate the process of publishing. Unfortunately, automation leads to certain drawbacks – not always accurately formatted text documents, lack of drawings in patents.”
But at least it’s one more free source of full text Russian patents – maybe you’ll be lucky and spot there the document you’ve been after
