Separate counts are provided for utility, design, plant, and reissue patents and for statutory invention registrations (SIRs). The 'totals' column, as listed in this report, excludes counts of SIRs.

Patent origin is determined by the residence of the first-named inventor as displayed on the face of each patent. Patent counts are broken down by type of patent document issued by the USPTO.
