International Patent Classification Concordance
is intended only as a guide or tool providing
information which allows the user to quickly
access the correct, general classification area
of the IPC7, and because of differences in the
philosophies of the two systems, a complete
one-to-one relationship has not been attained.
Also known as the USPC-IPC Concordance and Concordance
File. The Concordance List Of USPC Classes (Data as of August 31, 1999) is available from the USPTO Web site. Users of this Concordance are encouraged to read the linked web page, Classifying Within The International Patent Classification System (IPC), which provides information on the particular differences between the USPC and the IPC and presents some basic steps in classifying documents into the IPC.
