Specification of Letters Patent

English to German Law/Patents Law: Patents, Trademarks, Copyright Schreibweise
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.

Heike Holthaus Jul 16, 2019:
@ Sebastian "Patentschrift" refers to the granted patent. The "specification" is the part of the patent containing the description.

Note from asker:
Danke, Heike. Das war auch mein Verständnis, nur aufgrund des Zeitrahmens der Patentanmeldung und Beschreibung (1912-14), dachte ich an Darlegung.
Peer comment(s):

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/...

English term (edited): specification (part) of letters patent

die Patentschrift der erteilten Patenturkunde

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:

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