HINT: The patent number may be found on the object, the box it came in, or in its instruction manual. You might read about an invention and be given its patent number. You will know it is a patent number because it will look something like this: U.S. 5,470,270. Some patent numbers may have letters in front of them. You can use the patent number I just gave you as an example for practice.
I soon will be sending you to do a real search on the Patent Number Search Page. However, cool your jets and read this step by step first.
The Patent Number Search Page will look something like the image above.
Note: The yellow box and the circle around the search button were added as instructions. The real search page will not have any such helpers.
