Zhihuiya Patent Forward Citation

智慧芽（PatSnap）专利前向引用查询

This skill guides you on how to query patent forward citation data from the Zhihuiya patent database, helping users discover the patents and non-patent literature cited by specific patents during their application process.
本技能将指导您如何从智慧芽专利数据库查询专利前向引用数据，帮助用户了解特定专利在申请过程中引用的专利及非专利文献。

Core Concepts

核心概念

Forward citation refers to the patents and non-patent literature that a given patent has cited in its application documents. This is a fundamental aspect of patent analysis — understanding what prior art a patent references helps assess its novelty, scope, and technological lineage.
  • Patent citations (
    citedPatents
    ): Other patents referenced by the queried patent.
  • Non-patent literature citations (
    citedOthers
    ): Academic papers, technical reports, and other non-patent documents referenced by the queried patent.
**前向引用（Forward citation）**指的是某一专利在其申请文件中引用的专利和非专利文献。这是专利分析的基础环节——了解专利参考的在先技术有助于评估其新颖性、保护范围和技术传承脉络。
  • 引用的专利文献（citedPatents）：被查询专利引用的其他专利。
  • 引用的非专利文献（citedOthers）：被查询专利引用的学术论文、技术报告及其他非专利文档。

Parameter Guide

API Usage

API使用说明

This tool calls the LinkFox tool gateway API. See 
references/api.md
for calling conventions, request parameters, and response structure. You can also execute 
scripts/zhihuiya_cited_references.py
directly to run queries.
本工具调用LinkFox工具网关API。调用规范、请求参数及响应结构请参考
references/api.md
。您也可以直接执行
scripts/zhihuiya_cited_references.py
来运行查询。

Usage Examples

使用示例

1. Query forward citations by publication number

Parameters: 
{"patentId": "12345678", "patentNumber": "US10000000B2"}
(patentId takes priority)
1. 通过公开号查询前向引用
Look up the forward citations for patent US10000000B2.
参数：
{"patentNumber": "US10000000B2"}
2. 查询多个专利的前向引用
Find all citations for patents US10000000B2, US9876543B1, and EP3456789A1.
参数：
{"patentNumber": "US10000000B2,US9876543B1,EP3456789A1"}
3. 通过专利ID查询前向引用
Retrieve the cited references for patent ID 12345678.

Display Rules

展示规则

  1. Present data clearly: Show citation results in well-structured tables, separating patent citations from non-patent literature citations.
  2. Summarize counts: Always state the total number of cited patents and cited non-patent literature items.
  3. No fabrication: Only display data returned by the API. Do not infer or fabricate citation details.
  4. Error handling: When a query fails, explain the reason based on the error response and suggest the user verify their patent ID or publication number.
  5. Batch results: When querying multiple patents, organize results by patent so each patent's citations are clearly grouped.
  6. Empty results: If a patent has no citations, explicitly inform the user rather than showing an empty table.
  1. 清晰呈现数据：将引用结果以结构清晰的表格展示，区分专利引用与非专利文献引用。
  2. 汇总数量：务必说明引用的专利总数和非专利文献总数。
  3. 不编造数据：仅展示API返回的数据，不得推断或编造引用详情。
  4. 错误处理：当查询失败时，根据错误响应说明原因，并建议用户核实专利ID或公开号。
  5. 批量结果整理：查询多个专利时，按专利分组整理结果，确保每个专利的引用信息清晰区分。
  6. 空结果处理：若某专利无引用记录，需明确告知用户，而非展示空表格。
