Issue the paper first, and then apply for a patent for utility model, okay?
Generally speaking, no.

Because one of the conditions of patent authorization is that the patent scheme has not been made public before the application, and the publication of the paper is an open act, which makes the patent application scheme lose its novelty.

However, the review of utility model is relatively loose, and most applications will be authorized in this case, but its legal stability is very low, and it is easy to be revoked by others.

However, please note that the undisclosed technical content in the paper can be patented, and the improved technical content can also be patented.
