English term or phrase: Specification of Letters Patent
Ich arbeite an einem Patent aus dem Jahr 1914 und habe diese Schreibweise bisher noch nicht gesehen. Gibt es dafür einen festen dt. Begriff? Beispielsweise Darlegung der Patentschrift?

Bin für jeden Tipp dankbar.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Danke, Heike. Das war auch mein Verständnis, nur aufgrund des Zeitrahmens der Patentanmeldung und Beschreibung (1912-14), dachte ich an Darlegung.

agree  Johanna Timm, PhD: “The patent proper, then, begins as follows. Specification (Beschreibung). The specification is a narrative description of the invention…” https://www.hartmanntranslation.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/...

specification (part) of letters patent
die Patentschrift der erteilten Patenturkunde


Explanation:
I am unsure this phrase is being parsed and read right. It looks like the tech. spec. part of the patent granted, as shown up e.g. on a patent search, albeit before my time in 1914.

Example sentence(s):
  • The Language of *Specifications of Letters Patent for Inventions*: With the Authorities and Decisions in All the Important and Latest Cases (Classic Reprint)
