[edit] Template documentation
This template is mostly for inclusion in the "References" section of article, giving detailed description of US patent: the inventor, title, and link to find full text in US patent office database.
Usage
{{US patent reference | number = | y = | m = | d = | inventor = | title = }}
- number is a patent number, without leading "US" letters, but with leading "D" letter if patent number contains it, and is required.
- y, m, d is a year, month and day of issuing, and are required. Four digits are required for the year, and two for the month and day even if the first digit is zero.
- inventor is a name of inventor, and is required; it can be a wiki-link, of course.
- title is a full title of patent, as recorded in patents database, and is required.
Sample rendering
{{US patent reference | number = 5285709 | y = 1994 | m = 02 | d = 15 | inventor = John D. Grant | title = Machine head for tuning a stringed instrument, especially a guitar or the like }}

Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unverifiable material may be challenged and removed.
Preferably, after inclusion of this template in "references", one should give less formal and more reader-friendly explanation of what this patent is all about.
