Typically, many patent attorneys, including myself, do not always include the optional section regarding the “objects of the invention” in a completed patent application that we file. By “objects of the invention” I mean simply the problems your invention is aimed at solving as well as the advantages of your invention. Although it is not a required part of the application process, it can be a very useful tool when you complete a patent application on your own. The goal here is to identify what problem your invention is meant to solve, the things that were in your primary element, or the reasons that generate the need for this invention.
This process can be as simple as just writing out what has motivated your invention as well as the ways it will meet those needs. Objects of the Invention sections should be roughly two to four sentences at most. Keep it simple - make sure that none of the objects discuss your invention itself, but rather the problem that existed prior to your invention making it essential that you felt a need to solve, because that is the problem that you are trying to overcome with your invention.
Identifying the object provides a good foundation on which you later formulate a background section and serves potentially as a link between a general background of the invention and what your invention is. You have to do this carefully though. Make sure you do not make any admissions in your background. Be sure not to talk about what your invention actually is. In this section, limit your discussion to explaining the closest problem that existed before your invention is made in this section.
