如果美国的专利权为两个自然人所有,两人如何处分自己的权利:如果其中一人将 专利转让给他人需要取得另外一个人的同意吗?如果一个权利人独自实施专利,那么对 其的限制是什么?

在美国共有专利权人之一可以不经其他权利人同意转让专利权,当然也可以实施专利了。

Re:请教:美国共有专利权如何行使?

实施的话,正常情况没有限制;转让或处分权利的时候应该有一定的限制吧,即只能处分自己的那部分权利。

参见:
35 U.S.C. 262 Joint owners.

In the absence of any agreement to the contrary, each of the joint owners of a patent may make, use, offer to sell, or sell the patented invention within the United States, or import the patented invention into the United States, without the consent of and without accounting to the other owners.

MPEP 301 Ownership/Assignability of Patents and Applications [R-3]

IV.     < INDIVIDUAL AND JOINT OWNERSHIP
... ...
Joint ownership -
... ...
Each individual inventor may only assign the interest he or she holds; thus, assignment by one joint inventor renders the assignee a partial assignee. A partial assignee likewise may only assign the interest it holds; thus, assignment by a partial assignee renders a subsequent assignee a partial assignee. All parties having any portion of the ownership in the patent property must act together as a composite entity in patent matters before the Office.

怎么看了半天英文部分,觉得是有限制的啊?第一段中的SELL与ASSIGN有区别吗?晕了。

注意Sell的是“the patented invention”,Assign的是 “the interest it holds”
