Invented by Dyson
Inventing takes years of countless mistakes.
A trial/error/trial/error process.
When James Dyson invented cyclone vacuum
technology, the big vacuum manufacturers
weren’t interested. Then they tried to copy it.
They’re still trying today. But they fail because
Dyson inventions are legally protected.
That’s why Dyson vacuums have advanced
technology you won’t find in any other vacuums.
James Dyson first applied for a patent to protect his cyclonic vacuum cleaner
in 1980. It took 13 years of further development and investment before he
was able to launch a vacuum cleaner bearing his own name. Throughout
this time, he was driven by a desire to make things work better.
To ensure inventions are protected for as long as possible, Dyson
work in secrecy and file patents late in the development process.
A patent application describes what you’ve done and how you’ve
achieved it. Patents need to be secured in multiple countries –
it’s an expensive business.
