Patent Idea black outline icon

About the Patent Idea black outline icon

A light bulb with a ribbed screw base glows with eight short rays, and a closed padlock with a keyhole sits at its center in place of a filament. The pairing says a protected idea, which fits intellectual property and patent service pages, legal firm websites, R&D and innovation slides, startup pitch decks and trade secret or NDA explainer sections.

The bulb is drawn as a near-circle tapering into a stepped collar, and the padlock's shackle and body are sized to fill the glass without touching its edges. Rays are evenly spaced with a gap around the whole shape. It pairs with lightbulb, shield and copyright icons; use at 48 px so the keyhole stays visible.

This is the black outline version of the patent idea icon: even, monoline strokes that stay crisp at small sizes and suit clean, minimal interfaces, wireframes and light backgrounds.

It downloads free as an SVG vector or transparent PNG in seven sizes, and the free online editor lets you recolor it, apply gold, silver, neon and gradient styles, add animation, or convert it to EPS, PDF and DXF.
