Law/Patents - Mechanics / Mech Engineering / Patente

English term or phrase: abstract / summary

Tengo dos títulos: uno que sigue a los antecedentes de la invención que dice "Summary of the Invention" y otro al final que dice "Abstract of the Invention". El "summary" tiene dos páginas y describe muy brevemente lo que se habla después en "Descripción de la Invención". El "abstract" es muy escueto, sólo de media página, está al final y es como una especie de epílogo. Mi pregunta es: ¿Qué acepciones se usan para patentes? Estoy usando "Resumen" para "Summary", pero para "Abstract" estoy barajando varias opciones, como "sumario" y "epílogo". ¿Alguna sugerencia? Gracias!

sinopsis / resumen

Explanation:
Podrías emplear "Resumen" para "Summary" y "Sinopsis" para "Abstract". "Epílogo" es incorrecto y no científico, ya que un abstract no es una conclusión, ni un corolario, ni una "última parte" de un informe, sino una muy breve descripción que antecede el informe y que en unos pocos renglones sintetiza el contenido *total* de dicho informe, incluyendo las conclusiones obtenidas. Fijate si te ayuda el link que adjunto. Saludos y suerte.

abstrac = resumen / summary = resumen de la invención

Explanation:
El abstract va aparte, suelen ser unas pocas líneas.
El resumen de la invención está al comienzo y se sigue de su descripción detallada

desde ya, los términos pueden variar en cada jurisdicción; estoy seguro de que resumen y resumen de la invención se acepta en el registro de la propiedad intelectual / industrial en Argentina
