They are made public. They have been since they were invented in the 1600s. That is the whole point of a patent. A patent has to teach a person skilled in the art how to replicate the invention. It has to make that knowledge fully public. If it fails to do this, and someone challenges the patent, it will be ruled invalid. - Jed
