In a social environment where population aging is rapidly progressing, the healthcare service market is growing fast with the increasing interest in health and quality of life based on rising income levels and the evolution of technology. In this study, after keywords were extracted from Korean and US patent data published on KIPRIS from 2000 to October 2019, frequency analysis, time series analysis, and keyword network analysis were performed. Through this, the change of technology trends were identified, which keywords related to healthcare was shifted from traditional medical words to ICT words. In addition, although the keywords in Korean patents are 55% similar to those in the US, they show an absolute gap in patent production volume. In the next study, we will analyze various data such as domestic and international research and can obtain meaningful implications in the global market on the identified keywords.

The purpose of this study is to set a direction for the development of men's underwear after analyzing current applications for patent regarding men's special-purpose underwear. In terms of a research method, the disclosed patents and utility models were investigated using the patent information database provided by Korea Institute of Patent Information (KIPRIS, http://www.kipris.or.kr). For this, the patents applied from 1990 to October 2015 were targeted. The keywords used for patent search were 'men's underwear' and 'men's special-purpose underwear.' When searched by the keywords above, a total of 1,089 cases were found. Except for expired or cancelled ones, 243 cases were investigated. Then, annual application trends, current registrations on literature records, classification of utility model right holders and contents by topic were analyzed. In terms of data analysis, frequency analysis, crosstabulation analysis and multiple response analysis were conducted, using SPSS 18.0. The results found the followings: In terms of annual application trends, the number of applications for patent started to gradually increase since 2007. Since 2011, it has rapidly increased. In terms of the number of patent registrations, literature registration was far higher than utility model registration. In terms of application rights, 'individually registered (58.8%)' was higher than 'registered by the organization (41.2%).' Among 243 cases, 'underwear (58%)' was the highest, followed by 'men's underwear-related items (29.2%)' and 'thermals (8.2%).' According to analysis on the details of the patent applied for men's underwear, 'penis-scrotum separation' was most focused, followed by 'disposable product' 'airy features,' 'scrotum protection' and 'structure of underwear.'

Background: The purpose of this study was to collate inventors' improvements of air extraction cupping technology by reviewing patent applications in Korea. The cost of procurement and use of air extraction cupping devices are covered by health insurance. Methods: Patents registered in Korea for air extraction cupping devices from August 1992 to January 2018 (registration, expiration, rejection, abandonment, and disclosure) were analyzed to determine technology trends. The Korean patent search engine used was Kipris (www.kipris.or.kr). Results: Sixty-seven Korean patents for air extraction cupping devices were retrieved. Most patents focused on design of the top valve of the device, the device at the bottom, an internal device, and the disposable cupping glass. In total 17.9% of patents were registered and 64.2% were abolished [either from non-payment of registration fees (93%) or expiration of the patent after 10 years (7%)]. The average registration period was 3.7 years. Conclusion: The patents retrieved for this study focused on the development of the air exhaust valve, disposable cups, and skin adhesion maintenance technology in cupping devices that use air extraction. The average registration period was 3.7 years, meaning the patents that were not commercialized, expired without additional registration renewals. It is important to acquire a New Excellent Technology certificate for a cupping device to promote commercialization.

Smart farms are receiving a lot of attention as a way to solve the chronic labor shortage and aging problems in agriculture. The smart farm industry, called the 6th industrial revolution, needs to strengthen its competitiveness. In order to apply innovative IT technology to agriculture, it is important to collect and analyze information about prior research or patents. This paper examines smart farm patent trends through 5,789 patent data related to smart farm using the domestic patent information search service(KIPRIS). This paper examines the domestic patent trends of smart farm information through keyword network, ego network, simultaneous appearance network, and bigram network analysis. As a result of network analysis related to smart farm patents, patents related to smart farm systems and control technologies were the most common. This paper can provide help in setting the direction of future smart farm-related patent research.

Objective : To build a basis of patent analysis for development of Korean ginseng as a competitive medical product in the world market. Methods : Survey of all patents related to ginseng or ginseng products in Korea and other rival countries such as the USA, Japan or EU, using KIPRIS. Results : Korea has more patents of ginseng itself , however has fewer patents related to functional goods, higher value-added businesses or medical technologies using ginseng than rival countries. Conclusion : The Oriental medical world should make more effort to verify the pharmacological effects of ginseng, develop high value-added functional products or medical technologies using ginseng and apply for more patents in such fields.

KIPRIS patent database was analyzed for identifying the technological status of Daedeok Innopolis Biocluster. It was found that the pattern of activities among various technological areas in Daedeok Biocluster is similar to that of an advanced country rather than those of other cities in Korea. The technological growth in Daedeok Innopolis Biocluster is in the progressive stage, which may be due to the innovative activities rather than the rise in the number of new firms or institutes. The concentration of technology in Daedeok Innopolis Biocluster is a favorable condition for the innovation activities. The trend for the technological concentration was remarkably consistent with the growth curve that a population increases according to the logistic equation. The logistic growth may be represented by the result of competition due to the limited resource allocation and then innovation cluster is corresponding to the ecosystem composed by biological individuals. There is strong competition in Daedeok Innopolis Biocluster in around 2009, so the government might make a policy to encourage the technological diversity for healthy knowledge ecosystem.

대덕 바이오클러스터의 네트워크를 파악하기 위하여 한국특허정보원의 KIPRIS 서비스를 이용하여 한국특허정보를 분석하였다. 공동출원 한 특허에 대하여 샐튼지수(Shalton index)를 구하여 연구개발 주체 간의 연관성과 기술 간의 연관관계에 의하여 R&D network model을 제시하였다. 본 모델에 의하면 벤처기업 간 공동연구가 가장 활발하였고 벤처기업들은 대학보다는 연구기관을 선호하였다. 과학 기술지식의 산업으로의 확산을 위해서는 대학이나 출연연구소의 네트워크가 더욱 활성화되어야 한다. 일부 벤처기업이 대덕특구의 연구기관과 공동연구가 활발하였지만 특구내의 연구추체보다는 타 지역의 기업, 벤처기업, 대학과의 공동연구가 많이 이루어지고 있었다. 샐튼지수에 의하여 기술 간 연관성 분석 한 결과는 생물자원탐색 기술, 세포배양, 유전공학과 같은 기초분야를 모체로 네트워크가 형성되고 있다. 생물의약분야는 기술우위가 약하므로 이의 경쟁력 확보를 위한 네트워크가 절실히 요구되고있다. 과학기술문헌이나 특허자료를 이용한 계량서지학적 분석방법은 R&D 네트워크 구축을 위한 전략 수립에 있어 효과적인 방법으로 이용될 수 있다.
