The European Patent Office (EPO) and the State Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China (SIPO) launched the Chinese-English component of the EPO's
free automatic translation service Patent Translate. Under the new arrangement with SIPO, EPO's Espacenet has grown by 4 million Chinese language documents, adding to the 75 million documents already available.
With the addition of Chinese, Patent Translate now enables free on-the-fly-translation of patents from, and into, English for 14 languages. Launched in February 2012 and integrated into the Espacenet database, Patent Translate is expected to enable machine translations of patents into all 28 official languages of the 38 member states of the European Patent
Organisation, plus Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Russian by 2014.
For further information on Patent Translate please have a look at EPO's short video or consult the fact sheet on Patent Translate.
