Thank you Tex. On gradients, compare Chris Collister (discussion entry #1).

: yes for grades / slopes or gradients, but "ramps" needs more checking / context - is it just a kind of virtual graphic in some electronic device or a palpable piece of hardware that is part of the steering mechanism? Could make a difference.

basics of patenting ...
What you can patent
You can use a patent to protect your invention. It gives you the right to take legal action against anyone who makes, uses, sells or imports it without your permission.
To be granted a patent, your invention must be all of the following:
-- something that can be made or used
-- new
-- inventive - not just a simple modification to something that already exists
Patents are expensive and difficult to get. Before you apply, check if a patent is right for your business.
What you can’t patent
You can’t patent certain types of invention, including:
-- literary, dramatic, musical or artistic works
-- a way of doing business, playing a game or thinking
-- a method of medical treatment or diagnosis
-- a discovery, scientific theory or mathematical method
-- the way information is presented
-- some computer programs or mobile apps
-- ‘essentially biological’ processes like crossing-breeding plants, and plant or animal varieties

Note from asker:
@mrrafe in fact the term was takn from a scientific patent, which I couldn't specify differently. |

mrrafe
: Agreed but another part of this ST appears in a prior question, and seems to be more of a patent for a steering mechanism which is OK. This part is just explanation of the mechanism. I think.

a patent for a "steering mechanism"- i.e. for s.t. that can be made THAT can be patented OTOH whatever scientific knowledge was applied in elaborating the "thing" IS NOT what is or could be "patented" - that distinction seems too hard to grasp?

SafeTex
: the reference is fine but not the point that you are trying to make. Just because the question is scientific here does not mean that he is trying to patent a scientific theory. We all know the patent is for a steering mechanism of some sort!!!

this Asker keeps repeadly calling patents "scientific patents" - which makes no sense.

Discussion
I think I fully understand your objection now but if you Google "Scientific Patents", there are simply too many hits to say that the term is wrong in some way
It is used to describe patents of a more highly scientific/technical nature.
So your point that you cannot patent a scientific theory is interesting but I don't think you should disagree with the use of the phrase "scientific patent" unless you really want to say that all the people/sites who use it are fundamentally wrong.
Regards
This Asker keeps repeatedly calling patents he's working on "scientific patents", which makes no sense.
The making of an atomic bomb involves undeniably a lot of "science", still I can't remember anyone ever calling an atomic bomb "a scientific bomb".
Even a low-tech catapult requires some "science" in order to predict the trajectory of the projectile, still I never heard of a "scientific catapult".
In the same vein, however much "science" was applied in a patent, the patent itself is certainly not "scientific".
End of digression.
thank you for your comment , however it's a patent for me.
besides I cannot understand why all these discussions. If you have an answer, please post it, otherwise Be more gentle with your remarks which I thik should be reviewed before posting. thank you
I note too that there are lots of jobs for patent scientists.
I think you have completely lost it with your disagrees and moral lessons but this one takes the biscuit.
