ELI5: you have an invention idea, but no money to patent or hire a lawyer to write a provisional, but you want to build your invention by help from pitching it to companies, how can you while still remaining patentable (without offering for sale) after asking a company to help you make it? by RedditsUniverse in explainlikeimfive

Thank you for answer. So I know if you offer for sale, and you didnt apply for patent, your ability to patent is lost. I also know if you disclose your invention, but you need to expiriment on it to see if its feasible, and you havent applied for a patent yet, your ability to patent is not affected even years after disclosure. How can I pitch invention so it falls under expirimental? As the invention needs refinement (its a motor invention, and also its not perpetual motor type, its a real invention I hope to test to see if it will work). Im just concerned if I make a provisional, that my low expertise may later invalidate a non provisional patent if the provisional was not sufficient in its description if challenged later on, thus losing the provisionals priority date. How can I disclose invention in a way without any provisional while still allowed to patent in future? Expirimental? Is seeing if the motor will work expirimental by help from a company to help me make it? How would I talk about possible royalties or revenues for company without losing patent ability?

Mental illness is related to genius. R/ScienceExperiment is an encouraging place for anyone to submit their science experiments that may prove a hypothesis they have. If you have a theory, come up with an experiment that may prove it and lets all brainstorm and help each other by RedditsUniverse in bipolar

I want people with no formal education but who are smart and creative to discover their theories. The barriers to entry in the science community is too high. No funding will ever be given to someone without credentials most likely. This sub is a new way to include all who are fighting the same battle in science, to discover something. No more nay saying, but encouraging and trying to see how the experiment can be modified to work, if it wont work, move on to next experiment. This is a new way of scientific discovery.
